MEXICAN CAUGHT
AFTER WILD RIDE

When Inspector de la Paz, of the
Mexican customs department at
Mexicali, found a false bottom in
the Ford ear driven by Jesus M.
Flores, operator of an express SER
sice in Mexicah. Wednesday eve
ming, the Mexican driver backed his
car across the line to the American
side and made dash for freedom
north on Heffernon avenue. He was
not halted until he had reached
Seventh street.
Flores was suspicioned by Inspec-
tor de la Paz of being engaged in
smuggling merchandise and the
search of the ear with its resulting
discovery of the false bottom show
ed that the suspicious were correct.
De la Paz elung TO the car in spite
of the efforts of Flores to throw
him off. The officer was bitten and
bruised on the arms before other
officers were able to halt the flee
ing Mexican. Considerable mer-
chandise was found hidden beneath
the false floor of the car.
1t was only after Customs Inspcc
tor Flammery and Policemen Brewer
and MeKelvey had oserhauled the
ear that il was stopped and Flores
and the merchandise was confiscated
and he will likely be given : long
Jail sentence.

Tenth Anniversary Of World
War Finds Many Leaders With
Pessimistic View on Its Benefit

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. L.
The tenth anniversary of the out
break of the world war finds con
flicting and, in some instances,
extremely pessimistic views among
world celebrities on the benefits to
civilization from the struggle, ac.
cording to copyrighted symposium
published today by the American
Legion weekly.
The symposium contains the views
of a score of statesmen, sodiecs,
educators and publicists.
1.-The only good the war did is
to show that nation is pcwer-
less unless it is we'll armed, y
said Frederick Wilhelm, former
Crown Prince of Germany. "All ma
tions are arming as hard as they
can and a dictatorship of some form
is the favorite idea.
From the secretary of former
Kaiser Wilhelm came the reply that
.'The world gained nothing, it lost
everything. The statement was
taken to represent the view of the
former war lord. <
"The world was mt least convinc-
ed that the balance of power theory
is an unstable basis for world pcyce
and that International cooperation
is the only plan to be tried, de-
clared Newton d. Baker, secretary
of war in The Wilson cabinet

AUTO PATROL OF
HIGHWAY TO BE
FROM A P. M. ON

AS the result of a survey made
by III. L. Blanchard VINO operates
the highway patrol service car of
the Automobile Club of Southern
California in this county. the hours
for patrol service have been
changed from 8 a. M. to p. m. to
the period between p. M. and 3
a. m.
Mr.. Blanchard has spent consid-
cradle time since the service was
started early in July in checking
the traffic over the county high.
ways. He finds that more ears are
operated at night here than in the
daytime at pcseni. This condition
results from the fact that so many
people drive at night for relaxation
after working during the heated
hours of the day or travel out of
the county then to escape the heat.
The Automobile Club has in mind
the providing of assistance when it
is most needed in changing Mr.
Blanchard S patrol hours. Mr.. Blanch
ard stated this morning that most
of his work was adjusting meehani
cal troubles so that stranded motor
lists might proceed to regular repair
shops under their own power. About
200 pounds of broken glass has been
removed from the highways by Mr..
