OPEN MONDAY MORNING

Ten thousand "smiles" for the Los
Angeles boys in Camp Lewis and

day morning, January 2S, was the an
nouncement yesterday of Harry R.
Minor, the district field director for

his return to Los Angeles, from San
Francisco, after organizing his dis
trict.
These "smiles" for our soldier boys
will be in the shape of Smilage Books
to be sold to patriotic citizens of Los
Angeles, who will send them to their
soldier brothers, sons or friends, in
camp. Each dollar book will contain
twenty "smiles," and each $500 book
one hundred "smiles," in the shape
of coupons, good for admission to
the big Liberty theatres built by the

ASK REMOVAL Of
BARS AGAINST
MEXICAN LABOR
STATE COUNCIL OF DEFENSE
AND FARMERS MEET IN SAN
FRANCISCO IN AN EFFORT TO
SOLVE LABOR PROBLEM FOR
THE COMING SEASON.
IOrthern Mexico Ports of Sentry Are
Crowded With Returning Mexicans
Who Have Been Told That They
Will Be Forced to Enter the Army
if They Remain in This State.

San Francisco, Jan. 25.-The State
Council of Defense and the commit
tee of farmers in joint session and
after an all-day discussion passed a
resolution recommending that the
Council of Defense use its good Of
fices in an attempt to remove the
bars to the importation of Mexican
labor. Those bars are three: The
literacy test, the $500 head tax and
the $500 bond from the employer that
the imported laborer will not become
a public charge.
The resolution of the California
Development Board urging the i'm
portation of experienced farmers from
northern China, to be returned to
their homes on the issuance of a
proclamation of peace was the cause
of the extended session. The impel-
ling causes for the adoption of that
resolution by the Development Board
were two-the highest possible eff
cheney in the production of food
stuffs, and the importation Of farm
labor that cannot remain to compete
with American labor on its return
from military service.
There was every indication that
the majority of the fruit growers
committee favored this resolution, but,
having been warned that a federal
investigation of the labor shortage
might result in cutting off the nom
essentials (fruit, etc. the members
confined themselves to the Mexican
recommendation.

Countries Weak After War.
Won Hertling declared the financial
condition of European countries after
the war would probably operate to
solve the problem of limitation of ar
maments. '=-'---'.--
He contented that Alsace was almost
purely German territory. severed by
violence. German in 1870 claimed this
territory 'thus criminally wrung
from her." He declared it was not
a conquest of alien territory, but what
was today called Instrumentation"
The chancellor said Austrian and
American interests were less incom-
patible than they seemed.
He said the population Of Poland
would decide its own fate on the Po-
lish question, but that this must not
delay peace one day If Poland after
the war wished to advance toward
Austria, such advance would be well
coined.

ChancellOr's MisinterpretatiOn.
(By Associated PreSs)

Wy ]ASoVSA0VSN AOoo/
London, Jan. 25.-VOn Hertling dis
agrees with foreign newspaper in his
Interpretation of LlOyd-GeOrge's g
speech, which showed an earnest de-
sire for peace and even friendship
with Germany, according to Central
News dispatch.
The chancellor took on an altered
tone wherein he said Lloyd George had
refrained from abuse and showed an
inclination for negotiations. 1t is be-
ieved the newspapers Interpretation
was based on Lloyd-GeOrge's declara-
ton that he did not wish to annihilate
Germany.

said, "the British premier seemed to
adjudge Germany guilty of all pos
sible crimes" He added:

0RATOR|CAL SIDE
TO Be DEVELOPED
Central High Attendants Will Devote
One Hour Each Week From Now on
to an Attempt to Bring Out the
Latent Speaking Abilities of the
Students

One hour a week is to be devoted
by the High School Student Body to
increasing the literary and public
speaking ability of the students.
Ittis planned to have the hour for
debates on school and national prob
lens, for literary programs, schooling
in parliamentary law, and probably
other as interesting and practical
knoWledge gathering efforts. Knowl
Ppdge of the nature intended for dis
@emination at this hour is practical
ly essential to everyone in this rapid
ly increasing race of universal learn
ing, according to the ideas of many
of the students.
One of the propositions put before
the Senior class at their meeting was
a course of eight lessons on the war
now being arranged by prominent
school official in the North.
1t is rather doubtful if the students
will adopt this ideas, however, and
the opinion has been expressed that
the lessons would prove uninterest-
ing, and therefore jeopardize the
spirit of the Knowledge Hour" 1t
is suggested that those interested in
the war have already followed the sit
uation closely in the newspapers and
magazines, and that anything fur
ther would be uninteresting to them,
while those who do not follow the
magazines and newspapers would not
be interested in the study of the
war.
