reactionary, to the detriment of his country.
 Alfonso demonstrated his physical courage time and again, for his life was attempted on numerous oc- casions. He knew that one of the prices of his position was possible assassination But" as he remark ed, that price does not include my courage. They may kill me, but if they should make me afraid-ah that indeed would be a calamity. .
 q Will Die King!"
 A typical example of the Kings bravery was furnished way back in 1905 when he was youth. While guest of the French nation he was riding in a carriage from the grand opera house in Paris with President Loubet when bomb ex- ploded almost under the vehicle. AS the coachman dashed his horses in terror, the "boy king" jumped up and, throwing his arms protect ing about Loubet, shouted Viva la France"
 Just before the revolution which busted him, Alfonso declared: q will never abandon my throne! l may die fighting, but will die a king!" No one ever expressed any doubt that he meant this. Now the world is wondering whether he is prepared to try to make good this proud Bourbon challenge.

raised, that square jaw of his has come forward. Whether he may be contemplating action now on his own behalf, or for the benefit of his heir, has not been made ap- parent.
 King Alfonso was an anomaly as ruler-a sort of dual character. On the one side he had a rugged but charming personality-a mans man and a ladies man, who was heartily welcomed in all circles; he was a hard d-riding, all-around sportsman whose feats aroused the admiration of Europe, the while it trembled for his personal safety. He laughed in the face of death; he was democratic to the point of Bohemianism in his associations, and never was. happier than when mixing with cronies among the people"
 Clung to Divine Right"
 At the same time he never forgot for moment that he was ruler by divine right" and that his word was law and sufficient. He and the former Kaiser of Germany were all most the last of the monarchs who chung to the theory of the divine right of kings" Alfonso, the de- lightful comrade, was said to be stubborn and dictatorial with his ministers. Those who overthrow him charged that he was medieval and

CONCENTRATION

NEW YORK, Aug 29. Word from Austria that former King AL fonso might fly back to revolution torn Spain in an effort to regain his throne through the medium of the revolt has not surprised those who know this square -jawed, die hard monarch.
 Alfonso has furnished ample evil dence, both by word and deed, dur ing his five-year exile that he in tended to try to reclaim the crown of the Bourbons, wrested from his unwilling hands by the republicans in 1881. Coupled with this is the fact that he always has been utterly fearless of the violent death which has pursued him persistently since the time when he was a tiny tot whose legs were too short to reach the floor as he sat on the golden seat of power
 Barred by Insurgents
 While none doubts that Alfonso has the courage of his convictions, the Spanish insurgents have made it amply clear that they do not intend to tolerate the intervention of any of the royal family at this critical juncture in a fratricidal conflict which is so bitter that it has developed into one of exterm- nation

ROME, Aug. 29-Premier Benito Mussolini has become e another George Washington in his deter imitation to stay out of entangling alliances.
 With conditions seemingly per feet for an alliance with Germany, he says to Hitler in effect: We can collaborate without incorporat- ing"
 With England and France plead ing for his return to the Stressa anti German front, he refuses to attend their preliminary Locarno conference.
 He intends to be more than "a little bit independent"
 Seeks Balance ot PoUer Late summer, according to high Fascist official, will see a defin- 1 ite Towering of Mussolini's policy, with the following cornerstones: No alliance with the Ger man group or the Anglo French group. On the contrary, an independent Italian" policy which may be described as the holding of continental bal ance of power as between France and Germany similar to that held by England for so many generations in the whole of Europe.
 "A peace plan consisting largely of the revival of his four power pact = England, France, Germany, Italy. The pact died aborning in 1883, but diplomat ic surgery has been known to resurrect many dead agree ments.

Prince of the Asturias, heir pre- sumptive to the non existent throne, entered Spain and tried to enlist with the rebels, General Emilio Mola, northern commander, com pelled him to leave the country. The general also ordered the arrest "on sight" of any member of the royal family
 Mola explained his action by saying that this is a national and not a monarchiSt movement. Furth- ermore, his officers said he feared that the presence of any of the Bourbons would cause friction in the insurgent ranks, which include not only royalists but republicans and fascists.
 Laughed at Death
 Whether Alfonso might be able to overcome this attitude is some thing which time alone can answer Certainly his appearance within the borders of his former kingdom would raise a desperate problem for the heterogeneous rebels, who have buried political animosities temporarily for the good of the common cause.
 While Alfonso accepted the in- evitable in the revolution of 1881 he has stubbornly refused to sur render what he claims is the right of the Bourbons to rule Spain. Ev- cry time the subject has been

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. 29. Fears of possible repetition of the bitter 1884 maritime strike in- creases as employers presented united front in declaring for a mod ification in the labor agreements.
 Ship owners recently informed the longshoremen they will not grant demands for increases in wages and also requested neutral persons be put in charge of the hiring halls
 Before the denial to the demands were announced, waterfront em- ployers of the Pacific Coast jointly asked representatives of the Inter national Longshoremen's Associa- tion to a conference on the present differences and addressed the foI- lowing letter to all local ILA presi- dents:
 Letter Is Sent
 The award of the national long, shoremen's board of october 12, 1884 will expire on September 30, 1886. During the two years that the award has been in effect our ex- perience has demonstrated that it should be modified
 The interest of the public as well as of steamship companies and shippers in the continuance of nor nal service after September 30, 1886 makes it necessary that the pro- posed modifications be considered without delay It is therefore re- quested that your representatives meet for that purpose at the earliest possible time, with the representa- tives of the associations of em- ployers which are parties to the award

Coca Cola Plant Here
Undergoes Improvements

Encouraged by large increase in
annual business, Herb Fawcett last
week was completing improvements
in his Coca Cola Bottling works
plant in FL Centro which include
new building construction, building
Improvement and installation of
new machinery.
The building permit for improve
ment work totaled $4,000. The list
price of new machinery such as that
installed in the Ell Centro plant is
about $4,000.
One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the work is the new method
used in the building, method on
which A. Y. Preble and Don Wells
recently received patents, and un-
der which two new homes are
planned in the new Lakewood Viii
lage subdivision in Los Angeles.
The system does away with con-
struction of forms for concrete, SUBJ
stituting a strong paper prepara-
ton in which are set steel REIN
forcements against wire mesh. The
reinforced steel studding is backed
by metal lath and hardwall, the
walls are insulated with spun gyp-
sum. 1t is said to be earthquake
proof, fire-proof and vermin-proof.
Using this construction, Fawcett
has remodeled almost his entire
building, providing two sound-proof
offices in which a large cooling
unit provides against summer heat,
and can be used to provide heat
ing system in the winter. Double
plate glass windows keep out
sound. The offices, Fawcett said,
are practically alright.
The bottling room also has been
remodeled to provide space for a
large bottling machine, another ma
chine to Sterilize bottles, and other
miscellaneous items of machinery.
A new water conditioner and boil
er also have been provided.
The remodeling was made neces-
Sary, Fawcett said, by an increase
in business which amounted in 1884
to 70 per cent more than in 1888,
and in 1885 to SO per cent more than
in 1884. The first three months of
1896 saw an increase of 86 per cent
over the same period of 1885, he
added.
New machinery provides capaci-
ty for cleaning, filling and Gaping
120 bottles a minute, or the equiv
alent of six cases a minute. Thus
far, the owner said, the biggest day
enjoyed by the distributing plant
was $50 cases, last May. This peak
will be passed this year, he predict
ed, citing the fact that his business
was greater in March this year than
in August last year.
Six new truck garages included
in the plants building program, will
help to handle the expected further
increase in business.

Inc nome, which can be moved
from its present location without
difficulty, is arising on the Whit
ing-Meade lot on West Main street
where numerous prospective home
owners already have Viwed il un-
der construction. 1t is intended
TO demonstrate the practicability
CT low-priced. comfortable home
in Imperial Valley, and to further
home building here. Every mod
ern convenience will 90 into its
construction.
Whiting Meade is selling homes
now, not just lumber one Off
cial of the company explained.
The house includes a living
room, two bedrooms. a commod-
ious kitchen and a bath. The
front bedroom will be air-con-
ditioned by a wall mounted cool
ing unit installed under supervi-
sion of Joe Graham. sales engin-
eer FOR General Electric.
Insulated throughout. the frame
dwelling will furnish a maximum
protection against heat in the
summer and cold in the winter.
One innovation is a ventilation
space under the caves and a vent
in the roof which allows warm air
to escape from the attic in the
summer. Walls of the home are
filled with metal wool. The rear
bedroom will be finished in knot
ty pine, other rooms with masonite
or a similar preparation, doing
away with plaster and its attend
ant cracks, almost always present
in Imperial Valley because of
earth settling or temblors.
The home, according TO Everett
Miner of the Whiting Meade COM
pany, can be constructed within
price range easily met by the
average man who desires TO own
his own home. Under the Federal
Housing Act, its ownership can be
accomplished at terms like rent
