HOOVER CALUMNIES SPIKED

Although Governor Smith and the Democratic
party making noise about personal attacks
target for considerable vllficaton two instances of
which have been efficaciously spiked the report
that he once applied for British citizenship.
Mr.. Hoover conducts ranch in this state - in
Kern county to be specific. Recently an eastern
magazine published letter stating that japanese and
Mexcans employed the the ranch at low wages
in preference to Americans
Hoover supporters in the San Joaquin valley did
the right thing. Instead of denying the accusation
themselves and subjecting their findings to criticism
the grounds of prejudice they referred the article
to the Kern County Labor Council, with the result that
this body found conditions the Hoover ranch ''fav
orable and have objections complaints to make
with reference to classes Of labor hired wages paid
Another report given frequent circulation in the
Middle West and East particularly in sections where
there is heavy German population, stated Hoover
had denied food to German and children and
told them to "go to hell
How any thinking person, familiar with conditions
the close of the World War, could give credence to
this lie is difficult to understand. Perhaps did,
but it would have certain appeal to the ignorant
George Barr Baker, member Of HoOVer'S per-
Sonal staff during the Armstice period has issued
statement denying that the statement is true in any
sense
The real truth is that Hoover insisted much
against the wishes of of the Allies, that the Az
mistce agreement contain provision for feeding the
impoverished and undernourished German nation.
He, practically alone at the time drew distinction
between needy subjects of Allied countries, and the
needy of the Central powers He recognized the call
of humanity, a call which many statesmen and be-
hind-the-line warriors, refused to heed
Hoover is difficult upon whom to fasten
e his field of activity all his life being open book.
Those who would defeat him at the polls will have to
provide better arguments than the lies Of which
these yarns samples.

HE HAS HIS REVENGE

disgruntled taxpayer of Monterey Park has
taken novel way to show his dispeasure street
improvement project.
concrete monument stands in front of his prop
erty dedicated In memory of the four who voted yes,
October 3, 1927 this slab is placed by of the 1030
who voted yes January II, 1928 - 846.73.'
Translation of the inscription shows that on Oc-
tober g. 1927 four of the five city councmen Of Mon
terey Park voted in favor of the street improvement
project against which he and other property in
the neighborhood protested. The action of the council
led to recall election January IT, 1923, in which
1,030 voters succeeded in removing the cOunclnen
from office.
The figures at the end Of the inscription stand for
the amount Of the property owner S taxes, which eX
tend period Of ten years and he proposes to hold
memorial services protesting against the assessment
every October ,, until the assessment expires.
He dedicated the monument Wednesday and hopes
that his annual memorial services will haunt the de-
posed councilman for the next nine years.
UnquestonablY the property owner gets some sat
sfaction out of his action, but unles he has
of humnr his action of childshness becomlng
a mature man If monuments were erected in protest
against laws that offend the country would be

ARE YOU FOR CALIFORNIA?

Governor 7oung's call to al voters Of CaIlfornla
to register before Saturday. presents the registration
matter in and unique light, that hardly
fail to have its effect onthose who love California
The governor states all should register and vote
to demonstrate the great injustice which Congress is
doing state like in longer delaying Congressional
reapportionment."
On the basis of the 1920 census, California should
have been given several representatives in the
lower house Since that time eight years = the
state has grown tremendously and its representation
is still based the 1910 federal census, injustice
that is apparent to all.
By rolling up the largest possible vote, California
will furnish unanswerable argument in Congress for
curing this eight year old injustice to great state
Think it over. If you love the great state which
you call home, you should be willing to do everything
to advance it, socially, economically politically and
industrally. When California calls all her and
daughters should answer. She is calling through
her chief executive to register Only day re-
mains to show your loyalty to your state.
