BANKERS MEETINGS
PLA|vVED FOR WEEK
Of SAN DIEGO FETE

Group four of the California Bank
ers' association, it has been announced,
will hold convention in San Diego
during Trans Continental Railway
week, December l to 5, inclusive. About
ESQ prominent bankers of Riverside,
Orange, Imperial, San Bernardiflo and
San Diego counties will attend. A
feature of the convention will be
banquet at the U, S. Grant hotel. Frank
]. Beicher of San Diego will be one of
the speakers. w. B. Clancy OF River
side is chairman of the grodp.
Business sessions of the convention
will be short, in order that the dele
gates may take full part in the rail-
way celebration. They will be invited
to accompany the San Diego party TO
the Imperial valley December 5, for the
last two days of the fiesta.
The Pacific Coast association of Port
Authorities will hold a convention there
at the same time. Mayor L. j. Wilde
of San Diego, president of the associa-
ton, is preparing an elaborate pro-
gram. Delegates are to attend from
all Pacific port cities.
Present plans indicate that the water
pageant on the night of December 2
will be one Of the most spectacular
features of the celebration. In addition
to 100 warships, which will be deco
rated and illuminated for the occasion,
there will be a Chinese flotilla, an
italian squadron, Japanese division
and a Mexican contingent. In all, more
than a dozen nationalities will be rep
resented with gaily decorated vessels

ages been a temporary resting place
for millions of birds while making their
spring and autumn migrations. That
they may alight there safely for
night on their long journeys from
north to south and back again is es-
sential, not ONLY to the lives of indi-
vidual birds, but to the preservation
of whole species.
These considerations did not prevent
the Germans from making the island
bristle with cannon or from trap
ping by the hundreds of thousands
the migrants that persisted in coming
therein spite of the unfavorable change
in conditions thus produced Now it is
proposed by, the friends of birds in
Great Britain, and they have the cor
dial support of DR.. Hornaday and
other Americans ornitholog1sts, that
not only should Heligoland cease to
be a fortress for any nation, but that
It be made a bird sanctuary-a place
where birds shall be free at all seasons
from molestation of any kind by any
body
The island is quite worthless for any
other purpose except, this one. as it is
no longer to serve a military use, but
If placed entirely at the service of the
migratory birds all of the many coun-
tries between which they move would
derive no small amount of practical
advantage. AS bird refuge, too, Hell
igoland would become one of the best
places in the world in which to study
the many problems in relation to these
migrations that are still unsolved.

COTTON POOLS
ARE FORMED To
BOOST PRICE
Two Combinations Expect

H. C. L. HITS POOR RELATION
(Kassas City star.)

In the threatened determination of
the middle class the poor relation will
be the first to go, He-embracing she
will probably go this winter, finally
frozen out after having survived the
chill determination of centuries to
snow him under. The old clothes club
that are under consideration by our
best dressers will prove the inspired
weapon to deal him the final blow.
These old clothes clubs always fol-
low, like plague and famine, in the
wake of war. 1t was really John Hay
who originated their vogue when, dur
ing the Civil War, he started a Shah
by club in Washington, and if it had
no influence on the high cost of ma
terials it at least affected the rhymsters
and journalists Of the times. Poor re-
lations seem to have weathered it.
Wars superinduce boarding both in the
pantry and in the horsehair trunk, and
it is only the persistent presence of the
poor relation that induces the thrifty
hoarder to unlock it and dole out q
plush pardessus for Cousin Hattie tc
come to tea in.
Giving your old clothes to your i'm.
pecunious cousins either is a purely
American custom, or else it can only
survive a certain number of wars. n
England everybody sells his old clothe.
because the second hand man give
such good prices for them. 1t is par
OF their salvage system and here il
America we are learning how. Which
means that the poor relation must e
without clothes.

pose of being called upon pretty soon
to show cause why they shouldn't
everyone go to jail for two years or
pay fines of $4,000 or maybe do both,
according 10 Attorney General Wiley
e. Jones.
The occasion for his observations is
a. wire from A. Mitchell Palmer
United States attorney general, call
ing for a conference here December
5 to determine means to put into eff
feet the anti-profiteer law of October
q, 1918, Similar conferences are be-
ing called in all the other states The
state authorities to be at the confer
ence here will include the governor,
attorney general, all the county at
torneys and the mayors of the various
cities. The governments representa-
tives will be George Smalley of Tucson,
federal fair price administrator for
this state; Thomas A. Flynn, Uniteo
States district attorney and a repre-
sentative from the office of the United
States attorney general.
The convention is expected to in
clude approximately 80 persons. At
the capitol yesterday the authorities
were making convention plans, an
nouncement being made that a meet
ing place will be chosen soon and the
time Of meeting will be decided upon
when more details are learned
An advance meeting, for outlining a
plan of action will be called by Jones
for an early date, probably. for Sun

development has been SO rapid in the
last few years that much of the ma
terial used in sea fighting in the late
war has been rendered more or less
obsolete and inefficient.
In view of this fact, Lord Fisher,

wholesale junking of the British fleet.

he urges as prevention of waste.
Lord Fisher would get busy fashion,

For before she hoisted the Stars and
