YOUNG AN "INFIDEL"

AS far as the Republican county CEN
trail committee of Los Angeles is con-
cerned, Governor Young has been de-
clared hereto and an infidel, who must
be disciplined.
The committee will have none of him
for the next four years, and though as
yet refraining from openly giving sup
port to any of his opponents, the district
attorney of Los Angeles county, who is
also a candidate, was given loud cheer
and wild demonstration when he ad-
dressed the committee
AS far as the governor is concerned,
he will have to struggle along without
the aid of the Los Angeles G.. O. P. COM
mittee.
This may be disastrous and again it
may not be. Developments of the past
two days indicate that the gentleman
who pledged himself to "clean up Los
Angeles, has considerable to do if he
would keep the pledge and more people
are beginning to realize each day that his
job is not by any means done.
Yesterday Alexander Pantages won
victory by obtaining his release on bail,
and it yet remains to be seen whether
the higher courts will affirm the convic-
tion obtained by Mr.. Fits Yesterday
also, charges against 16 defendants in
the notorious Julian swindle were dis
missed They had been indicted for COM
hitting usury in connection with JULIAN
loans. Buddy" Davis obtained re-
versal in the higher court and is now
awaiting a new trial, with an even
chance that he cannot be convicted. Ber-
man and Lewis of extreme ill-repute, are
federal, not state, prisoners. This leaves
only Asa Keyes and Ed Rosenberg as
the only clean cut victories in the head
dress of the Los Angeles district attor-
ney, which was supposed to have more
feathers than the war bonnet of Sioux
chief.
If Los Angeles is call cleaned up it
is quite a spotty Job of cleaning. Mr..
Fits has not carried out his pledge to
the people of his own county. What is
there on which to base belief that he
would carry out pledges made to the
state? His present job is only half done.

WE LIKE THE LINEUP

Probability that one result of the re-
cent census will be the formation of a
new congressional district composed of
Imperial and San Diego counties, is the
announcement from San Diego
Such combination should be happy
one all around and would be much more
effective than the present unsatisfactory
condition which places these two coun-
ties in the same district with Inyo, Mono
Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino.
For the past 10 years Phil Swing has
been representing district larger in
area and population than many state
back in the east The wide diversity of
interests contained in the district would
easily provide work for two or three
men. What interests 1nyo county may
be of no consequence to San Diego, and it
is not likely that San Bernardino or Riv-
erside are much concerned with San Di-
ego's problems.
The present district is not only un-
wieldy but representing it is too large
Job to wish on any one man.
Republican leaders of the 10 southern
counties have ratified the San Diego-lnl-
perial lineup and the other counties
would be formed into new district.
With all due respect to our neighbor
on the north. Riverside county, joining
us with San Diego is much more satisfac-
tory than to make Riverside-lmperial
district, as was suggested in some quar-
tiers. Perhaps it is because we were once
a part of San Diego, that relations be-
tween these two counties are much closer
than between Riverside and Imperial.
However, we do not like the attitude
of San Diego's Assemblyman Harper, II
he is reported correctly. He is quoted as
follows: 81 have hoped for congress
man to represent San Diego county "a
lone, and still hope for it, but we can
be happy if we are Joined with Imperial
as it would mean that We could unques-
tionably control the majority vote

UNCLE WIGGILY'S THIRSTY

"Well, my dears,' said Uncle
Wiggily to Baby Bunty and some of
his rabbit boys and girls as they
came hopping home from the Hollow
Stump School one day, "did you

where he was playing leap frog with

And just as Bundle was jumping
over Stumble's back down Stumble
fell in a lump and Bumble fell on

them and there the three rabbit
boys were in heap.
"Ho! Ho.' laughed Jingle ane

a thirsty rabbit has good nose
for smelling, and soon Buster and
Jingle, by hopping around and
sniffmg, had found spring of
water. But, alas. The water was
down between two rocks and the
hole was so small, and the water
was so far down that the rabbits

Kiwanians Enjoy
Splendid Talk

Nj. X. "Dick' Carlson,' instruction
manager of the stcno;.<pe DIVISION or
the La Sale Extension University,
Chicago, was the principal speaker
at the regular weekly meeting OF
the Kiwanis club held yesterday
noon at the Barbara Worth hotel.
Carlson spoke most interestingly
upon the subject of "mental by
giene,'' calling attention to the fact
that the hospitals of the country
contain large number OF those
mentally ill than of those suffering
from physical sickness. A large per
ccntage of these mentally incapaci-
tated cases are the result OF bruises
received during the adolescent years,
and the speaker commended the ef-
forts of the service clubs and other
organizations to assist children dur
ing the formative years of their
lives in the development of conf
denee by learning TO do at least one
thing well; to afford them opper-
tunities for self-expression; and to

$50 am ~ said his brothers.
And seeing the boy rabbits drinking
the cool water from the open spring
near the hollow stump bungalow
made Jingle, Jangle, Bunty and the
other girls thirsty also.
Some people say rabbits should
rot drink water-that they get
enough in the lettuce aud cabbage
they eat. But Uncle Wiggily liked
a nice cool drink of water himself,
and so did his children.
Seeing the little bunnies tapping
up the water from the spring made
Uncle Wiggily think Of something
he had long planned to do.
81 think, my DEAR whispered
Mr.. Longears to his wife, who stood
in the doorway looking at the
splasbing bunpies, 81 think ! shall
give the children a thirsty lesson.
"What do you mean by "a thirsty
lessono'' asked Mrs. Longears. Il.
seems to me that when they have
been in school all day, having read
ing, writing and arithemetic lessons
that is enough.
"No, it isn't" said Mr.. Long
ears. "There are lessons to be learn
cd outside Of school as well as in
side. And rabbits, especially, who
are in the woods and fields so much,
must learn the lessons of out OF
doors. How to get drink when YOU
are thirsty is very good lesson. !:
shall teach it to my little bunnics. "
Without telling them what he was
going to do, Uncle WiggiIy called
to Buster, Stumble, Jingle, Baby
Bunty and all the others, saving:
"Come, hop along with me, my
dears. We shall have time to 90 to
the woods before supper. And we
NAV have an adventure. ="
