further considered next week, and
adopted at the third meeting, if no

1t will be sometime in July before
much can be accomplished, and late
August or September before the
final touches would be added
1t is generally hoped that the
repairs will be made to the cross

condition. 1t is also hoped that this
repair work can soon be extended
to Brunswick Avenue, Quarry and
other streets, I'm the Cottage Jill

all citizens can enjoy clean and

JUST AFTER DINNER
 FAVORITE HOUR FOR
 LOS ANGELES THEFTS

LOS ANGELES, June 16.-(P-1 That eight o'clock in the evening is burglars hour" instead of after midnight as hitherto has been the popular belief, is revealed in statis- tics compiled by the Los Angeles po- lice department. From to g D. m. more houses and stores are entered, more loot taken, and more getaways made than in any corresponding pe- riod of all the 24 hours
 Strangely, too, the report says, the two hours immediately following mid night, when persons appear to have the greatest fear of burglars, are when fewer night robberies are com mitted
 During October, November and De- cember, last, 2,290 burglaries were reported in Los Angeles at 6 D. m. when most families were eating din- ner, burglary business picked up. By ' o'clock it was we'll under way and at eight it was floodtide. Then it receded slowly until 3 a. m. when store rObberies began to make up for the slump in the residential dis tricts. In the three months, 90 resi- dence robberies were reported at 6 p. m., 11S at ', and 233 at s. By g p. m., the number had dropped to 145, and at 10, when people are re- turning from the first movie show, the number had diminished to 70.
 At 1 a. m. when practically the en- tire city was sleeping, only 2S bur- glar visits were recorded, and at ? a. m. only 30. Most of these were in the business districts. At the number as a result of raids on stores, had increased to 70, but at 1, when the milkmen and early risers began to move about, there were only 37.
 Of the 2,290 robberies, PAP occurred at an unknown hour of the day and 609 at an unknown hour of the even ing.
 Private residences appear to yield the richest harvest. The statistics show that during the three-month pel- for, 974, or a little less than one half of the total burglalies5, were committee in residences. There were 594 iii apartment houses and hotels, 501 in business places, 89 in offices, 5 in public buildings, and on ves- sels at anchor in the harbor. The remainder of the robberies were of miscellaneous character.
 The tavorite mode of entrance $ thru the front door, tan report say=. +.n. of the 2,290 rob,".:s. en ',ance to 76O homes wao lined through ecoIa whose b:ks wet picked, when 4S7 occurred where per- sons lad uninten ionaliy i..' doors or windows unlocked ami tnr bur glars ents:?I without ne ::.;y any 9Dstacle. Two hundred al forty six places were robbed u. q; bodily entrance and 309 doors and windows were "jimmied."
 A home is seldom robbed while it's tenants are sleeping. Burglars do most of their work in the night, but at hours when families are away or so engrossed in their radio or work that they do not hear the robbers.
