AS late as 1913 there were running in
N New York several hundred dis
orderly houses and hotels
Women solicited openly on the streets.
Vicious restaurants and dives spotted
the city.
White Slavery fourished and the
newspapers almost daily referred to the
Vice Trust
These conditions existed under the
protection of wel[known politicians and
a few corrupt police officials
Mitchell changed all this.
No longer does there exist a partner
ship between organized vice and corrupt
police officials who brought disgrace to
the entire force.
The Vice Trust" is only memory.
All vice has not been abolished
But it has been compelled to hide its
evil head and it has been driven out of
politics by the Fusion Administr ton

Where are the "Red Lights

Efforts to bring back the Red Lights
have been made from time to time.
But they have been promptly sup
pressed by the police.
The Vice Trusts" only hope for a
return of the old conditions is change
of administration.
These facts show how wonderfully far
we have come in four years from those
old Tammany days with their huge vast
age of ruined women and poisoned men.
This proves that the Mitchell Admin
istraton has been sincere and energetic
in its effort to rid New York OF vice.
IF Mitchell stays in office another term
the town will continue to grow cleaner
and more decent.
Have you a boy growing up IN Ne"
York City? Or girl?
Then keep Tammany out!

REAV|S ACTIVE FOR
D|ST|LLATE TRUCKS

Los Angeles-manufactured Moreland
distillate trucks are to have direct
representation in the Imperial VAL
lev. This news will be hailed with
delight by the many prospective truck
users in this section Of the country,
as will also the fact that their distri-
button will be under the direct super
vision of a prominent citizen of the
Valley, John D. Reavis.
From plans outlined by Mr.. Reavis,
the transportation requirements of
this section of the State are to be
looked after as never before. The
Morelands are to be specially geared
and fitted to meet the exact require
ments of each individual purchaser.
Up-to-date service stations will also
be installed and large consignment
of parts will be kept on hand.
With this modern plan it will be
possible to obtain immediate service,
and the truck user will be assured
maximum efficiency from his invest
ment. The new Moreland line, as rep
resented by Mr.. 'Reavis, will include
every capacity from three-quarter to
five tons. Every Moreland truck is
equipped with the famous Timken
worm drive and every motor is fit
ted with the we'll known Moreland
distillate gasifier.
The Moreland plan of fuel consump-
ton means that each user will be as
sured at least so per cent saving in
fuel costs, through the substitution of
distillate instead of gasoline. Dis
tillate fuel is no experiment, as there
are already more than two thousand
Moreland trucks in this state success
fully operating on this low-priced
fuel.
4 am out to sell high quality trans
portation," said Mr.. Reavis, "and
intend to leave nothing undone in my
efforts to afford Imperial Valley
truck users all the benefits and ad
vantages offered in the California.

Sacramento, Jan. 18.-Already the
legislative bills calling for appropri-
ations are beginning to assume for
midable proportions. In round num-
bers, those announced by the close
of the first week of the session
amount to $4,OOO,OOO, with prospects
bright for a good many more.
Bills asking for specific appropri-
ations total $3,92O,000. Other bills
made demands which involve high ex-
penditures, the exact amounts of
which are not stated.
The state budget is SAL, ,735,247.
Alongside this, few extra appropri-
ations of four to eight millions is a
mere bagatelle, and a few hundred
thousand here and there is small
change to the legislator accustomed
to dealing in scores of millions.
The appropriations so far proposed,
outside the budget, may be divided
about as follows: New buildings,
grounds and institutions, $2,S50, 900;
new state roads, $94O,OOO; miscellane-

POINTERS BY c. E. COGGINS.
Cold Weather Affects the Storage
Battery.

Cold Weather Affects the Storage
Battery.
In winter, more than any other time
of the year, the motorist should give
his storage battery special attention.
Discussing the problem of winter
care of storage batteries, the Willard
expert said:
"In winter the storage battery is
called upon to do about twice as
much work as in summer. The lights
are used a great deal more and the
engine usually starts a great deal
harder in winter than in summer be-
cause carburation is more difficult.
The battery has to supply power for
both of these-for both the starting
and the lighting.
"The average motorist does not run
his car as far nor as fast in winter
as in summer, so the generator does
not get the opportunity to restore the
energy used in cranking and lighting.
The result is that if the motorist is
not careful, the battery slowly loses
it's charge.
"Since discharged battery
freezes at about 20 degrees above
zero, freezing can best be avoided by
keeping the battery fully charged.
"The chief points in the winter
care of the battery for the motorist
to remember, are:
"First, test the battery frequently
with a hydrometer.
"Second, conserve the power as
much as possible, and,
"Third, keep in touch with the serv-
ice station.
"The hydrometer will show infal-
