Fits ADVOCATES
STATE LOANS FOR
WORKING PEOPLE.
Candidate for Lieutenant
Governor Says State
Should Aid Workers.

Extension Of state credits to
working people under the home and
farm loan system, has been added as
a plank in the platform of Buron
Fits, chief deputy district attorney
Of Los Angeles county and candi-
date for the Republican nomination
70 lieutenant governor in the Au-
gust primaries.
That was made known today at
the san Francisco headquarters OF
the candidate, who is conducting Il
vigorous campaign in the northern
l,Hrt Of the state.
Unqualified support Of the pro-
posed &-0OO0,O00 bond issue TO cx-
tend the home and farm loan svs-
tenn to cx-soldicrs is being given by
Fits. who has added the idea of
extension Of the credit, to working
cople, who like the veterans, w0uli
receive loans from the state at }
per cnt over periods of twenty
years.
'Some POO cX-scrvicc men have
availed themselves of that state
ald, and under the proposed bond
issue 1000 more can get their own
homes and farms at no cost to the
state and at the same time add
greatly to the taxable wealth. -
Fits said. 'Thcrc is not the Slight
est reason why this idea could not
be extended to all the people. If
persons can own their own homes bv
paying T32 month to the state
isn t II better than paying so {;
month to a landlord in pcrpetuity 20

Justice Adolph A. Hoehling Of the

Better Government League, for a
mandamus against the Civil Service
Commission to require the commits.

or to permit him to inspect the list.
Arguments were made by Albert 1T.
Putney and DIR. StowelI on behalf OF
United States Attorney Leo A. Rover
for the commission.
The counsel for the petitioner con.
tended that 1t is q right of every citi-
zen to know the names OF the ON

that way could the citizen be informed
If the civil service laws ware being
properly executed. They told the court
that = state court In Chicago in 1915
