sentative Curry, California, today
characterized the attempt tn develop
the Alameda naval base, "Just an
other attempt to sink $16,O00,0 900 of
the people S money in mud flats, y
and said there is only quick sand
foundation at Alameda, which he
claims would be unprotected from
the gunfire of a fleet at sea. On
the other hand. he claimed Mar"
Island is in deep water with rock
foundation, ample anchorage and
cannot be reached by gunfire from
the sea. and in his opinion it is the
greatest and most efficient navy
yard in the country.
For a nominal cost of $9,000,000,
he contended Mare Island can be
made the greatest naval base in the
world, fully euipped to care for
all the needs Of the United States
fleets, either present or prospective.
Curry charged that the Redman re-
port "admifs in veiled way that

Sheriff Charles Gillett. 1t is be-
lievcd the man has crossed the line
to Mexico, and through the good
offices of Chief of Police Hardwick
of Calexico, working in cooperation
with Sheriff Gillett, it is hoped to
enlist the aid of the Mexican author
tiles in an effort TO locate the man
who is believed to be in or near Mex
icali. Bostick is known on both
sides Of the line, and Gillett expects
to get an early clue as to has where
abouts. The Mexican officials have
signified their intention OF turning
the man over to the CalcXico author
tiles if he is located in Mexican ter
ritory and he will doubtless be de-
ported across the line as an "unde-
sirable, and turned over to the Ca

is presumed that the search will oc-
cupy several weeks, and every ef-
fort will be made to reveal some
trace of the fate of the missing

The searching squadron will prob

ters for several days, having been
here last month when search for the
missing men was first begun, at
which time they were enthusiastic
about the landing field in this city
and the facilities for supplying the
planes with fuel. No planes have
been seen today in this vicinity, but
it is not believed The squadron will

as the hunt through the mountains
will take considerable time.

DECISION MADE
BY SUPERVISORS
ON APPOINTMENT
Mrs. Norton to Assist
Both Treasurer and
County Clerk z
MOusseau Well Fitted for
Position by Wide
Experience

County Clerk Cal Mousseau is to-
day purchasing agent of the county,
following action taken yesterday af-
ternoon by the board of supervisors.
Mrs. Genevieve c. Norton was APP
pointed deputy purchasing agent.
The appointment of Mrs. Norton
had been suggested as a solution for
the problem of providing clerical as
sistance for the county treasurer s
office, Mrs. Norton being Treasurer
Adair s selection for the position of
deputy treasurer. Opposition to
Mrs. Norton developed on the ground
that woman could not function to
the best advantage in the capacity
of purchasing agent, two of the SUI
pervisors being irreconcilable on the
point.
After spending much of the day in
an endeavor to find solution upon
which all could agree, the appoint
ment of Mr.. Mousseau was decided
upon, all supervisors voting for
Mousseau with the exception of Su-
pervisor Brooks, who voted for Mrs.
Norton. All members of the board
then agreed upon the appointment
of Mrs. Norton as deputy assigned
to the county treasurer office at
u salary of $75 per month.
Clerk Mousseau has had wide ex-
perience in the capacity of purehas-
I ing agent, being perhaps one of the
tbest equipped men in the county for
t.this place. His experience has COW
cred similar work in the employ of
public service corporations, and dur
ing the war the army promptly avail
ed itself of his preparation in this
work and assigned him to similar
detail, thereafter advancing him re-
peatedly for merit and efficiency.
