California Makes Bid.
As an instance OF what might be ex-
pected In the way of competition, Mai
Moulthrop referred to the action which
had been taken by Los Angeles, Cal,
and the general assembly OF California.
Los Angeles has already offered q site

50, 000, 900 in the erection OF buildings
for the academy, which will memo

Maj. Moulthrop thought this a splen-
places attempting to compete In the
selection of a site could very profitably
follow.
The government purchased such a
great amount OF land during the war,
that 1t would not feel like spending
any part OF an appropriation for an

M~oulthrop said. Heweyert. a city
should come forward with the free
offer Of a site, this consideration would
be removed, and tho city would get the
academy, providing II happened to pos
sess the other requirements.
The Chamber OF Commerce committee
has already taken up with the city
commissioners the proposition for Z
$500, 900 bond issue TO use In purchase
Of a site and putting up other Induce
ments for the location Of the academy
here, It Is prepared to ask for large
appropriations from the county Of

purpose,
The committee viii meet with Mai
