Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-07-27

n" when am there to know it.
~ Now don't let them tell you it
haSent been hot hare in Cali
fornia the past few weeks Brother its been
roasting, and we haven't got the usual Alabi,
cts the humidity" We haven't even got any
of that. Course its been cool in the nights.
Chat is fairly cool) am not going to be too
big liar just for the sake of the State. It's
just been hot, that's all. OF course the papers
out here can always kill OF hundreds with the
heat some place back east. But think the
Editors here were so overcome they couldent
even get up enough energy to kill any of with
q headline back there.
You can publish all the Statistics and junk
you want but I guess the whole country has
been hit pretty hard But lay it to the Stock
Market crash last Fail. Soon as the market
gets little better we win have some cold
weather. Yes, we are liable to have snow just
as soon as the Market gets better.
Say you know what we got out here besides
Che heat. Well its Fish they call it Grunion,
(not Grundy) Grunion At certain time of
the day and year why it washes right up on
the bank or beach. rather You can tell where
did all my early swimming. Its just few
inches long and pretty small even in a story.
Well people go to the Beaches and after big
wave comes in they make a dive and tackle
these things with their hands, and the funny
part of it is, they know when its going to
happen just like an eclipse. The papers all
announce it. "Grunion will appear on such
and such Beach at 9:43 Tuesday night July
IL, 1880. If there is any change in the
Grunions arrival time like there was in Amos
and Andys why it will be announced as soon
as we hear from them" And by goly sure
enough at 9:43 on said night a wave come
in and sure enough riding it in was old man
Grundy II mean Grunion). Well everybody
was Tackle or a halfback, they made a flying
tackle at EN-, and when their heads were pried
out of the sand it was found that each hand
held two and three ounces of Grunion' So YOU
see California again will get the reputation of
being the biggest liers on earth by saying they
can catch fish right out on the dry land, and
the Rascals won't be lying, they will be telling
the truth for the first time in years.
GEE by the papers that Mr.. Hoovers western
vacation trip has been cut to two weeks in
the Rockies all on account of Hiram johnson
wanting to argue over the Treaty He knew It
would pass. But that made no difference 70
him. So he Just kept everybody in Washington
during this weather. Course Mr. Hoover is
not so bad on, as he has fixed him up a Camp
out In Virginia some place, and I reckon its
pretty cool there
But the President should be compelled to
leave Washington early in the Summer. even
II he Is forced to miss johnson. Mind YOU. I
believe Hy is sincere about this but he knew
AZ was BO1nB 10 pass ana all ne had to do
was to register his opposition, and not drag It
out into all this mess. He and Senator Dave
Reed had pretty set-to last week Dave told
him he could go and see the papers, and learn
all that was in them, but that he would NOT
De allowed to show them to anybody else.
Wen Hy went up in the air, he said he could
not conceive on any Senator ever looking at
anything and not be able to tell about it, So
ne certainly bawled Davey out
To have TO read something and than Laa,~ q.
TO yourself dident appeal to him in the least.
Wen we have no monopoly on kicking on the
Treaty. England says we got the best of it.
tnat shows they have a sense of humor and in
Japan they are hollering their heads of. thew
say their Delegation dident bring home enough
ships. So If there is that much dissatisfaction.
Its like have always preached why hold these
things? There is always more hatreds formed
at any meeting than there is friendships. no
matter what they agree too they know they
should have done better. The Nations in this
world that get along and never have any
trouble are the ones that never meet in con-
ference At all
The minute you confer you find out each
others short comings But anyhow what Diff
ference does 81 make? The minute q war
breaks out Treatys don't mean a thing anyhow
II England went to war tomorrow, do you
think this being bound to only given number
Of ships would hold good? Say they would
