Livingstone will do the twirling for

upon his star pitcher, Joe Steele, to set

Waite Reports Much
Work During Month

IF. w. Waite presented monthly re-
port covering the work of his office
to the board of supervisors at their
session this week. The commissioner
and his deputies are actively prosecut-
ing their campaign against johnson
grass and according to the report, ac-
ton has been started to force clean
ups in some bad cases. The county
must paw for this work but the claim
becomes a lien on the property if the
owner fails to pay it.
Under the Johnson grass law one
party who failed to comply with the
request of the inspector was arrested
and fined $25 for allowing the pest to
90 to seed on his land.
One Japanese charged with shipping
or offering TO ship green cantaloupes
pleaded not guilty at first arraignment
but later changed his plea to guilty and
was fined 800 under the provisions of
the Standardization law.
Many ears, sacks and boxes of fruits,
vegetables, seed grains, etc, were in
spected during the month by Mr.. Waite
and his assistants. In addition, 1885
rose bushes, 200 pepper trees, 723 orn-
amental plants, ~ cypress, 10 olive, IA
palms and five eases of bulbs were in
spected.
Scales and pumps were also examin-
ed and sealed during the month.

SteintOrf Will Not
Resign His Offices
BY Special Staff Correspondent

CALEXICO, Nov 10.-Rumors and
published statements as to the action
of the new city manager in resigning
from offices held previous to his APP
pointment as city manager, did not
develop at the trustees meeting of
Thursday night.
Further nlmors are being stilled by
Mr.. Steintorf' S denial of present inten-
ton to resign as either recorder or
police magistrate.
Having been appointed to serve as
city manager, Mr. Steintorrf did have
it in mind to resign from the offices
named, but at the instance of several
members of the board of trustees, he
withheld his designations.
Other rumors, to the effect that bills
would not be paid until the twenty
first of the month are also being dis
PEELED today. As a matter of fact, sal
aries are usually paid in the first days
of the month, but because the meeting
of the trustees fell so much later than
usual, bill allowances could not be made
sooner.

Armistice Day is observed as the an
niversary Of the ending of the world
war. But more and greater than that
it is the day of the beginning of peace,
and therefore it is celebrated in no un-
certain fashion as day of hope and
high ambition. We have Memorial
Day for the hero dead, for backward
thought of the greatness of the days
gone by. Let Armistice Day be day
for the living, for looking forward up
on high adventures and achievements
yet to come.
In this America of ours especially,
the day of the beginning of peace is
a daN of exaltation of the spirit; for
we are nation of builders, and the
works of peace are the glory of Il free
people. With the coming of peace
there is an end of destruction and of
tearing down. And with the coming of
a just peace the march of mankind is
taken up again, mankind going for
ward step by step to higher resolve.
Let us then be glad and proud III this
resolve, that every observance of the
Armistce shall serve as a milestone
along the upward road of peaceful pro
gress.
Yet on this fateful eleventh day of
the eleventh month it would be well,
that on the stroke of the eleventh hour
one solemn moment be set aside for
prayer and a silent giving of thanks,
that freedom still endures upon this
earth through sacrifice. have the
honor of speaking for great organ
ization of American citizens whose
faith in America has been proved
through hard endurances; men who
have come through struggle in war to
Il clear conception of the spiritual
glory to the service to America. In
the spirit of these men let us say:
- Honor to our immortal dead--that
great white company of shining souls
who gave their youth that the world
might grow old in peace. Amen.'

BONUS ADVOCATED
BY M'AD00 TODAY
in LEGION TALKS
Could Better Afford Bonus
Than Tariff, Says
Bill McAdOO
Former Treasury Secretary
Has Plan to Pay For
Soldier Bonus
United Press Leased Wire

FULLERTON, Calf, Nov. IL
| Enactment of adjusted compensation
| laws i'm favor of world war veterans
was strongly advocated here today by
William G.. McAdoo, former secretary
of the treasury.
| In an Armistice Day address under
the auspices of the American Legion
posts of Orange county, McAdoo pre-
sented what he termed a sound and
practical plan' of providing the neces-
sary funds by taxing the benefits of
private interests from, the new tariff
bill.
The funds can also be provided, he
declared, without adding cent of
taxes or straining resources of the
treasury, by long term bonds, with
only the annual interest sinking fund
to be paid.
'.It is sheer hypocriscy to say that
the nation cannot bear this relatively
insignificant burden when great sub
sides are granted to private interests
at the expense of the people, y McAdoo
said.
McAdoo asserted that as the result
of the Fordney McCumber tariff bill,
he estimated that more than three and
la half billion dollars per year would
be taken from the taxpayers pockets,
and that it would be three years befoEe
the measure coud be repealed
Hits Tariff Bill
"Ten billion, eight hundred millions
for trust and monopolies, F" he exclaim-
ed "and not one cent for the heroic
defender of their country!
but if the frank and direct method
of issuing government bonds for the
payment of adjusted compensation in
cash should not be adopted, why should
not the beneficiaries of the tariff bill
he required to divide their subsidy with
the nation s defenders!
''How can it be done9 Let an aver
age of the net earnings of every trust,
monopoly or corporation or beneficiary
of the tariff be iascertained for five
years, or some reasonable period, pre-
ceding the enactment of the law. Then
take each year 80 per cent of all net
of these beneficiaries i'll ex-
ess of this average, and apply it to
the payment of the soldiers bonus.
"This is not an impractical idea. 1t
can be formulated into law that can
be administered.
"In the wave of materialism that
has swept over the land since the war
was fought, our higher ideals seem to
have been obscured, he concluded.
''There are some things that cannot be
in dollars. Justice is one of
them, and the nation must stand for
Justice and do justice no matter what
the cost in blood and treasure.

Power in Hands of
Peoples Of World
In Future-TridOn
Bv RICHARD CHAPLIN

Copyright 1929, by the United Press)
NEW YORK, Nov. ll.-''The world
is showing off,
SO Andre Tridon, the famous psychic
analyst, explains the many political
upheavals which have taken place with
in the last few months.
'The public the world over" Tridon
said "is tired of the bosses and wants
to show its power. 1t wants to do some
thing ITSELF some great thing to which
il can point proudly and say, Il did
that This accounts for the lack of di-
rection. In each country where there
has been a turnover it has pointed in n
different way
Tridon referred to Itlay, where there
has been an extreme nationalist move
ment.
To the sudden and complete conserv-
ative reaction in England.
TO the recent successes of the Demo
cratic party here in America.
To the many shifts, backward and
forward and roundabout in Russia.
To the establishment of republic in
Germany and the apparent dissatisfac
tion with it.
To the overthrow of monarchy in
Turkey.
And to the many tumovers, reverssls
and uphcavals all over the world, in
Poland, Albania, Ruthania, Greece and
China.
All this, according to the psychh-an-
nlyist, is in large part attributable to
the war.
Daring the war; he says, ''gov-
ernments lied and murdered and taught
the people not to believe their brothers
but to kill them. And the people were
made to do what the governments or
dered. So now, in reaction, they want
to show that they can do something
themselves. And they want particular
ly to show the governments and they re
doing it.
sit is a sort of egotism, this wish to
show power. Does the public know
what it wants. No. But it knows what
il does NOT want. 1t does NOT want
a monarchy, and no more does it want
a democracy; neither kings nor, prcsi.
dents. But not having any idea as. TO
what would be better than these, the
public merely turns ont whatever hap
pens to be in power.
