But I am going to put a magic

So Little Bub sat beside Mr.

And I do hope you can make

BALLOT PROPOSITIONS

THIS Is the third of a series of articles
discussing the 20 propositions to be
voted on at the general election Novem-
Der 8. The first 10 have been covered in
the two previous issues of The Press
No. 1l-Tideland Grant to City of
Huntington Beach, initiative constitu-
tlonal amendment. Ostensibly designed
to give the City of Huntington Beach
right to beach and tidelands for recre-
ational, commercial, and other purposes,
including navigation and the fishing in
dustry, this measure is so drawn as to
contain a clause empowering the city to
lease the rights for the production of
minerals, oils, gas, etc. There is divid-
ed opinion as to its desirability even in
Huntington Beach. Apparently drilling
for oil is the chief incentive for the
measure and if passed it would ultimate
~ remove one more bit of public beach
from the people. We recommend a vote
of mo"
No 12-Authorizing City of Glendale,
After Election Thereon, To Pay Owners
Certain Improvement Assessments on
Their Property, an assembly constitu-
tional amendment. What has been said
of No 10 applies equally to No. II. This
matter should concern only the people
of Glendale, but under the states archaic
constitution it must go before the voters
of the state. Another wish for modern
constitution and recommendation Of a
Yes" vote.
No. 13-Amending State Athletic
Commission Initiative Act, an assembly
constitutional amendment. This prop
osition merely provides that the legisla-
ture be given authority to amend the act
governing the state athletic commission,
instead of requiring that such amend
ments be placed before the people. This
is more in keeping with common sense
than No. 10 and No. II. The legislature
is the direct choice of the people and to
it should be delegated much of the de-
tailed and costly political legislation
that bobs up all too often. A vote of
Eyes" is recommended.
No. 14-Exempting Vessels from Tax
alton, an assembly constitutional amend
ment. Vessels registered in California
ports are now subject to taxation Tor
state purposes only This proposition
will continue this provision until 1865.
1t is deemed beneficial to CALIFORNIA;
navigation industry, has drawn no op-
position, and is entitled to a Eyes" vote.
No. 15-Deposit of Public Moneys, an
assembly constitutional amendment.
This proposition is drawn to extend to
water districts and similar corporations,
the same right now given to the state,
counties, cities, towns and other political
subdivisions, to deposit money belonging
to them or in their custody, in any state
or national banks within the State OF
California. 1t has been unanimously ap-
proved by the legislature and is now pre-
sented to the voters for ratification. 1t
merely clarifies a condition that some
authorities contend already exists-that
water districts and similar corporations
have this right. A vote of Yes is rec
commended.

SOUTH AMERICA

THOSE of us who are disposed to judge
South America by the maps in our
aliases, or from newspaper accounts of
political troubles there, have little or no
conception of the vast area of the south
ern continent and its possibilities.
This idea was brought home forcibly
yesterday in studying the map of South
America with DR.. Jose Ernesto Riveros,
an agricultural expert from Argentine,
who is making study of European and
North American farming operations.
The extent of his own country was
touched upon by DR.. Riveros, not in a
spirit of boastfulness, but to give bet
ter understanding of its immensely.
On the map Argentine does not appear
to be much larger than California, if
indeed it seems as large. Yet it has an
area of 1,153,41S square miles, compared
with CALIFORNIA; 15S,297. The province
of Buenos Aires contains an area great
er than all of France.
The visitor from the southern repub-
lie, highly interesting and cultured
gentleman, explained the interest of his
country in improving the condition of
its people, the majority of whom are en-
gagged in agriculture. Old fashioned and
inefficient farming methods are being
QlSSdl dOQ 1Ol lIiS lllOSI llIP1ONCQ, anu
the government is active in promoting
the advancement of the farmer.
In the course of his conversation DR..
Riveros explained that most of the i'm
ports from his own province go to Eur
opean countries. Argentine also buys
much from Europe. 1t should be buying
and selling with the United States more
than it does, although the import and
export trade with this country is large,
Argentine supplying this country with
half the hides it imports The British
are strongly entrenched commercially in
the Argentine.
All of South America presents fer
tile field for American investments and
