Standardization of
Car Traffic Rules
Meets With Favor

Sentiment for a uniform traffic
ordinance is swecping the cities and
towns of the southland like wild
fire. according to letters from city
and county attorneys reaching the
Automobile Club of Southern Cali
fornia.
To introduce the proposed plan
throughout Southern California, the
legal department of the auto club
recently sent to the attorneys for
more than 200 towns AND cities cop
les of an ordinance prepared with a
view of general adoption. These at
torneys were asked to consider the
proposed law throughly and to give
any assistance they could in bring
ing in to perfect ton for presentation
to the law making bodies of the
various communities. Replies receiv-
ed so far from the attorneys to
whom the law was submitted are
highly favorable and many contain
pertinent suggestions indicating
keen interest on the part of com
munities and 4 desire to make their
local laws conform with those of
other communities in regulating mo-
tor vehicles.
The proposed ordinance is the re.
suit of joint labors on the part Of
the public safety and legal depart
ments of the Automobile Club of
Southern California, aided by DIR.

TO DEDICATE
MONUMENT TO
WAR HEROES

SAN DIEGO. Dec. 14-Dedication
orv Of the American soldiers who
died in the battle of San Pasqual.
near here, will be observed within
the next week or ten days, accord
ing to announcement made by San
Diego Parlor, No. l08, Native Sons
and Daughters of the Golden West.
The last session of the legislature
appropriated $4,000 for the erection
of n suitable tablet to mark the
spot where three officers and l8
men OF the United States army died
in battle with the Mexican forces.
The Americans, serving as part of
the forces of General Kearney, who
had marched to California across
the deserts, were in bad condition
because Of their hardships. They
were attacked by a portion of the
Mexican army under General Pico
and were being overwhelmed by
the superior number of the Mexi-
can forces when they rallied and
managed to disperse the Mexicans.
Kit Carson, the noted American
scout, was in the party that de-
feated the Mexicans. General
Kearncy was in command of the
troops. The battle occurred between
December 6 and 10, 1916. Several
small skirmishes took place be.
tween the forces the first three
days, while the main engagement
was fought on the last day.
The affair at San Pasqua is i'm
portant in California history as it
marked the turning point in the
battle being waged for California
as part of the Mexican war pro-
gram.
High officials of the army and
navy are expected to be on hand for
the dedication.

ESAN DIEGO WELCOMES YOU
COAST ROUTE
IMPROVEMENTS
ARE POPULAR

SAN DIEGO, Dee. l4.-Improve'
ments on the San Diego-Lo Angeles
highway via the coast route, on
which work has already started, will
meet with the approval of the large
number of people who travel be
tween the two cities.
OF particular interest is the pro
posed elimination of the infamous
San Onofre "death curve near
the boundary of San Diego and
Orange counties, which has been the
scene of many fatal accidents.
In addition to eliminating this
and several other dangerous curves
the state highway commission is re-
placing several small narrow wood
en- bridges over creeks and back
water from the ocean, with new
ones which are much heavier and
able to stand the increased traffic
The dangerous Santa Fe grade
crossing at Carlsbad, is also to be
eliminated. Approximately go miles
Of new concrete road will be con
structed to replace worn out pave
ment. Almost One-haif million dol
lars will be, spent in the improve
ments between Oeeanside and the
San Diego county line.
San Onofre creek is also being
bridged at cost of $500.
Wide, level pavements, banked
graded and protected by guard
ratings, will protect the motoris'
for the greater part of the way be
tween the two cities, from serious
accident The driver who maintains
the legal limit of speed will have
maximum protection between San
Diego and Los Angeles within the
next few months.
Imperial Valley people are great
w interested in the new construc
ton work, as many residents from
there make the trip to Los Angeles
by way of San Diego and the coast
route.

HOLDS OPERA CANNOT
Be TRANSLATED

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-CP)-Opcra
is untranslatable, Otto Fl. Kahn,
president of the Metropolitan Opera
company says in a 24-page pamphlet
issued to refute criticism that the
Metropolitan fails to have operas
sung in English and that the organiza-
tion docs not favor American singers
and composers.
If foreign artists we're compelled
to sing in English. Mr.. Kahn con-
tended, they would never be heard
at their best.
When American composers produce
operas that the opera-going public will
support, he said, they will be pro-
duced at the Metropolitan, but this
far, they have been unable to com.
pete with their Italian, French and
German rivals. The Metropolitan now
has 80 Americans among its singers.
he said. and "other things being equal,
preference is given them over foreign
artists"
