committees front places around the
county can make advances, Commit
tees, official and unofficial, from va
rious of the smaller cities around the
county have visited the mayor and
asked oh what terms the districts they
represented coul4,< Into the city of
Los Angeles bo as to share In the
Owens river water and power. The
mayor has been powerless to answer
these questions because ho has had no
authority to do so. but tint committee
he Is to appoint, with the authorization
of the council, can answer them.
The plan li not to take In the entire
county as It is now bounded, but to
Include only that portion which 'the
waters of the Owens river willtfupply.
That will Include a large territory, for
the City will get 10,000 miners' Inches

Believing It Is not necessary to

paratively litt' i.
With great reluctance the' finance
committee last Tuesday agreed to ap
propriate $7500 to the police depart
ment to Improve the heating systems
at both eaetsidS and central stations.
The largest part of the money was to
be expended at eastalde where the

ceived during the past two days at

ISSUES ADVICE ON USE
OF NON-POSTAGE STAMPS
Postmaster Receives Report as
to Holiday Greetings and
Charity 'Stickers'
In advance of the coming- holiday
mails and because of the use of the
outside of letters and packages for the
sending of Christmas and New Year's
greetings last year, Postmaster W. H.
Harrison has received announcements
from Second ■ Assistant Postmaster
General Joseph Stewart advising him as
to the use of charity stamps and
greetings in the mails.
The use of non-postage stamps has
become so extensive, especially during
the holiday season, many being placed
on the address side of the envelope or
package, and being the same or near
the same color of the postage stamp,
that much trouble has been experienced
by the mall handlers. Some countries
have Issued announcements prohibit
ing the use of the stamps, while
others permit them under certain con
ditions.
The following countries refuse to ad
mit to their mails articles bearing non
postage Christmas .stamps or other ad
hesive charity stamps or labels.
Guatemala, Uruguay, Portugal, if
they resemble regular postage stamps.
The' following, however, will admit
articles bearing such stamps, but only
when affixed to the reverse and not to
the address side:
British East Africa,. Uganda, An
tigua, Barbardos, Bermuda, British
North Borneo, , Cayman. . Islands,
Cyprus, Gold Coast, Dominica, Falk
land Islands, Gambia, Gibraltar, Brit
ish Honduras, Jamaica, Mauritius and
dependencies, Monserrat, Nevis, South
ern Nigeria, Saint Christopher, Saint
Ijucia, Saint Vincent, Seychelles, Sierra
Leone, British Somaliland, Trinidad,
Turks and Calcoa Islands, Virgin
Islands, Germany, Austria (provided
they do not resemble postage stamps).
Great - Britain, Southern Rhodesia,
Transvaal.
Articles liable to be refused admit
tance to any of the foregoing countries
on account of the fact that they bear
charity stamps will not be dispatched
from this country, but will be returned
to the sender if known. If the sender
is not known, such articles will be
sent to the fourth assistant postmaster
general, division of dead letters.
To preclude delay'in handling articles
bearing Christmas stamps-to be trans
mitted in the international mails, the
covers of such articles should bear the
full name and address of the senders'.
POLICEMAN, ACCUSED OF
BEING DRUNK, MAY BE FINED
Charges against Daniel McDonald,
patrolman, probably will be dismissed
by the police commission when Mc-
Donald Is placed on trial Monday night.
McDonald is accused of having been
Intoxicated while on duty, but unless
some evidence to sustain the charges la
produced before the commission meets
but little time probably will be devoted
to the case.
The .only evidence against McDon
ald that, has been developed so far Is
that one man saw him at a time when
he thought- he was drunk. The ser
geant who investigated the case, im
mediately on the report made to police
headquarters, says that he found Mc-
Donald at home in bed an hour after
he was reported intoxicated and that
he exhibited no symptoms of even
having, taken a drink. -, > , ,
