IS miles of California's thousand-mile
coastline, and private interests are dig
ging in more firmly. The enchanting
beauty of many desert solitudes that
might be preserved, is fading rapidly
marred by unappreciative owners. No
more than five per cent in our system
of state parks. And they are normally
being numbered at the rate of 10000
acres a year.
The comprehensive state park pro-
gram laid out in 1923 is today no more
than half realized Should it bog down
now, the beauty might we'll be destroyed
before we could capture it. But if the
program can move on with new vigor,
our natural wonderland will be preserv-
ed for all time as a joy to future genera
tions and permanent foundation to our
important tourist industry.

ONLY ONE ANSWER
SPEND LESS!

California's state and local govern
mental costs for 1886 are not as vet
known. During 1885. however. they
amounted to $468, 600, 100000. (46S mil
lions of dollars).
Judging from the estimates. our share
of federal expenditures during the same
year amounted to 432 millions of dollars
more, making a total of 100000. .0O0-
almost a billion dollars.
California taxpayers did not pay the
whole bill last year, having gone into
debt for part of it. The balance. how
ever, must be paid eventually by us or
pur children. To have paid all would
have meant an average of $500 for each
californian gainfully employed, or an
increase of about DO per cent more in our
axes. AS 1t was, we pushed up the pub
&c debt Gncluding CALIFORNIA; share
pf the federal debit to two million seven
hundred million dollars. mortgage av-
.eraging S1,087 against the future in
eome of every gainfully employed Cali
fornian.
Payment is not centralized in those of
heavy income. On the contrary, if all
he income of persons making $4,000 or
more a year were used it would only
meet one-third of the tax bill. 1t is
plain that the people in lower income
brackets must pay the vast majority
.bf taxes.
1t is not to rail against high taxes.
We must realize that either such heavy
Lax loads must continue or we must
Stop demanding so much from govern
.nent.
We must expect less in services of all
kinds-school systems, road systems,
bark systems, army and navy defenses,
public projects, relief, old age security,
Unemployment help, social services, pub
ic hospitals, crime defense, public parks,
game refugees, statistical and data de-
|partments, and all the rest.
We can either form our own opinions
|bn how to effect economics or We can
carefully study candidates for all posi-
lions, voting only for those qualified to
Zee that such economies are made as
will not injure government. In this lat
ter event. we must not expect to ask
his or that and have government hand
81 out just because the hometown folk
want it.
If we want economy We can get it.
But we must pay the price of personal
and community willingness to economize.

NEW YORK, Sept. 17-Frank
Scully writes me Interestingly to eX-
plode many of the myths that have
chung to his friend, Jim Tully, the
writer. First: Tully never was
hobo. He was a road kid in the
manner of Jack Dempsey, Stanley
Ketchell and Jack london. He quit
gypsying at 81 and has worked
hard since.
Tully and Johnny Kilbane started
boxing the same year. Tully's first
fight in the arena was main event,
a ten round draw in Chicago. At
%, Martin Davey, now Ohio's
Governor, sent Tully in command
CT 10 men on tree surgery jaunt.
1t was Davey who really started
Tully to write.
He asked him to do a piece for
the company bulletin-his first
effort. Tully educated himself in
public libraries of the land. When
he was a road kid, the first place
he hit for in a strange town was
the library Later, Rupert Hughes
and Mencken saw his literary
possibilities.
Tully's home is of brick, set down
among 100 giant eucalyptus trees
in a three-acre section of Toluca
Lake in California. It's copy of
George BarroW's home in England
and regarded as one of the three
most civilized homes in land of
magnificent mansions.
Al Jolson has been the No l
Lucky Boy of the race courses
this season. He IS the only plunger
in five years to take the bookies
for a ride. Which is something
of an evening up process for the
nanny Wah- Waher. During most
of his professional and high earn
ing years he has been steadily
nicked-often at $4,000 clip.
Those who know, say he is the
gamest of losers and the most jubi-
lant of winners. When his nag
comes under the wire first he can
not refrain from going into a
dance. He has fund salted away
the bookies cannot reach-so win
or lose, he does not face old age

TO FIGHT
BABY RACE
AWARD
Relatives of MiIIar
In u. S. Plan Legal
Battle in Canada

TORONTO, Ontario, Oct. "a
Q.N.SO Relatives of the late
Charles Vance Millar in Michigan
and California plan to launch a
legal action through Ontario
courts to prevent Toronto mothers
from claiming the $775,000 stork
derby award.
Descendants have retained coun-
Gill here and will attack the will
on the grounds that it is contrary
to public policy. The Harmon
and NOEL family, nearest relatives
of Millar, previously lost a court
action because they were unable
to provide $1,000 court costs.
However, it is now understood
the relatives are raising the r1eces-
sary funds to test the validity Of
the will.
Derby Ends Oct. 81
AS the fantastic race neared its
last week, executors of the estate
indicated they would ask direction
in the courts in disbursement Of
the funds.
Millar left the residue of his es-
tate to the Toronto mother giving
birth to the greatest number of
children in the 10 years following
his death. The derby ends on o.
tober 81.
Probate of the will already has
been granted and certain disburse-
ments of the estate have been
made. The executors will hold
meeting shortly and determine a
definite policy.
Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn
and Attorney General Arthur w.
Roebuck have confirmed reports
that the Ontario government prob
ably will take steps to prevent
endless litigation" and to see
that the fortune is not dissipated
in legal costs.
The premier termed the race as
"the most revolving and disgusting
exhibition ever put on in a civil
liked country"
Premier Sees Racket
The Premier said:
IF the government does not
take some action soon, litigation
will drag the case through all
the courts to the privy council
and when it ends there will be
nothing left for these poor
mothers and their babes. 1t is
the duty of the government to
stop this fiaScO. The thing has
become a racket and we can't
let it go unchecked"
Arrival of the stork at the home
of Mrs. Grace Bagnato, leading
contender, again was delayed
yesterday She has been expect
ing her confinement for a month.
The birth of this baby will give
Mrs. Bagrato ten eligible children
in the race.
