POLITICAL CHEFS WHET KNIVES FOR REAPPORTIONMENT BIRD Textbook Dressing and Conservation Jelly To Spice Final Feast GEORGE A. VAN SMITH [Spccia/ Dispatch to The Call] SACRAMENTO. De«v 17- —Reappor- tionment, the free textbook and water conservation questions will hold the center of the stage in this, the promised last week of the extraordinary session of the thirty-ninth legislature. Legislative interest and, thanks to the extraordinary efforts of self-seek ing politicians, public interest is cen tered chiefly in the reapportionment question which should develop into something like a genuine battle tomor row. That battle wyi be fought out be tween the two houses and fought out on th* question of legislative reappor tionment. The work of reapportion ment for congressional and equaliza tion districts virtually is untouched, although several bills designed to effect such reapportionment have been intro duced. COMMITTED TO COUNTRY CAUCUS The assembly stands committed by a small majority vote to the country caucus scheme of reapportionment, which is a frank attempt to deprive both San Francisco and Los Angeles of the legislative representation they are entitled to under the provisions of the act. The senate is committed by a virtual ly unanimous vote to the Thompson bill, which gives San Francisco and Los Angeles counties their constiuttional representation so far as numbers are concerned, if the distribution is made on a crazy quilt plan. The senate ii in possession of the as sembly bill, which reposed quietly enough over Sunday in the archives of .ipportionment committee. The senate or Thompson bill has passed gjh the assembly reapportionment committee and is before the whole louse without the dignity of a recom mendation either favorable or unfav orable. ,II>T A CHOICE OF BOXES celerity with which the respec tive houses get at their work my de termine which bill wll be the bone to be gnawt-ii at in free conference. If Bsembly takes up the Thompson bill tomorrow and amends it by strik ing out all but the title and inserting the text of the country caucus bill it will V>e back to the senate before the upper house has an opportunity to give ountry caucus bill the reverse English. Jn either case there will be a refusal to concur; conference and free conference. onsideration of that free confer roufd Vie comprehensive without consideration of the plans of the San Franciscans who came to Sacramento on the advice of the goveifcor to en deavor to change the district lines as rhopped by the San Francisco delega tion and inserted In the Thompson bill. The members of that committee ex j>e<-t that the queer things done to San Francisco are to be corrected in free conference. Some of them are pinning their faith in tut- expected cure on the theory that no San Francisco senator will be on the free conference commit tee and the assembly conferees will be men committed by their VOt*fl to the plan to deprive San Francisco of one of the senatdrs and two of the assem blymen it is entitled to under the con stitution. The logic involved is at best queer IMPEACHMENT NOT LIKELY FOR JUDGES [Special Dispatch to The Call] t AM- HEADQUARTERS, SACRA MENTO. Dec 17.—That the complaint of Attorney A. H. Carpenter of Stock ton, asking- that impeachment proceed ings be begun in the assembly against .Judges Chipman, Burnett and Hart, of the third appellate court, will be dis missed, practically was agreed upon morning at a meeting of chairman William Kehoe, W. D. L. Held and W. ,\. Sutherland of the subcommittee of diciary committee named to hear Carpenter's case. • Owing to the absence of A. Joel and M. R. Jones, the other members of the subcommittee, it was decided to wait until tomorrow before drafting the re port. The showing made by Carpenter before the committee was very poor and in no way tended to indicate that the iudgea had treated him unfairly. It is expected that the committee will nut only report against the desired im peachment proceedings, but will make recommendations otherwise adverse to Carpenter. NATION WIDE STORM PREDICTED THIS WEEK Weather Bureau Sees Two Dis turbances Approaching WASHINGTON". Dec. 17.—-There are strong indications that the week will i.c marke.l by rain or snow and gen erally unsettled and disagreeable weather throughout the United States, ling to a bulletin tonight by the weather bureau. -Temperatures generally,"' the bulle tin says, "will undergo decided changes, and the precipitation, which will be in the form of snow and rain in north ern and rain in southern districts, will he above normal. "A disturbance that is now over the western, plateaus will advance east war and cross j the : great central val leys Monday and Tuesday and reach the eastern states by Tuesday night or "Wednesday. Another disturbance will appear in. the f far west about Thursday, cross the Truckee mountains Friday and the ; great central valleys Saturday or Sunday, and the eastern states at the beginning: of Christmas w is t k "These disturbances will be attended by general precipitation and decided changes; in temperature." Y. M. I. TO HONOR ITS GRAND OFFICERS San Jose Council Plans Big Banquet for Them [SpeeiaJ Dispatch to The Call] SAX JOSE, Dec. 17.—A banquet will be served in honor of the grand officers of the Young Men's Institute, who will pay their annual visit to the local roun cll Tuesday evening. Among those who will speak are Grand President J. Denehy, First Grand Vice President James Bacigalupi. Past Grand President Charles Will< y, former Grand President | James P. Sex, John P. Fitzgerald. Nich olas Bawden, Rev. Father Morrissey, S. J., president of Santa Clara college. and D. M. Burnett, grandson of Califor nia's first governor, who will preside as toastmaster. even in these times of strange legisla tive tactics. First, it is not easy to understand their confidence in the the ory that no San Franciscan will be on the senate common 'r free confer ence. ,That may be the program, but it is not likely to be popular with a big delegation, the members of which un derstand that the conferees from the other house will be committed to; the policy of wiping at least one or more of them off the political map. No less unpopular will be the idea of submit ting to any change in the strange dis trict lines they have drawn for their personal protection. „. ■ . • Regardless of outside assurances rep resentatives of the San Francisco com mittee have been told that, they need hope for nothing from the senate side that the San Francisco delegation will not agree to. In that connection it may be worthy of note that the eight sen ators who have had districts 'built for them have agreed to stand pat for the Thompson bill. It-is my" opinion that San I Francisco's prayers / well may be directed to warding off. something worse "than is ; contemplated by the Thompson bill. ''■■'■, Trie ' free textbook amendment is down for further and possibly final con sideration in the *. senate tomorrow morning. As amended by Curtin, "it provides for the 'abolition of the state board of education by taking body out of the constitution and putting it in the hands of ; the legislature. I am confident that : neither the proponents nor the opponents of the measure are sure of their ground as regards the final vote. . . .• : _:'. FEAR FOR SHAXAHAX'S HEART The jockeying Incident to the adop tion of the Curtin amendment has re sulted in several changes of front and may have given the amendment the 27 votes necessary to get it through the upper house. The adoption of the Curtln amendment has certainly taken one vote from the main proposition if it has added two. Shanahan and the proponents of the measure admit* theirs is a close fight. Some of the opponents contend that Shanahan is due to suffer heart failure when the final roll is called. The water conservation program, which was all mussed up ,by. the de cisive defeat of the Glavis-CJark bill in the lower house, is said to' nave been switched to an attempt to obtain the enactment of an amended form of the Caminetti bill. The Caminetti bill pro vides for a limit of 40 years on the life of corporations formed : under the water bill. It is asserted that the con servation commission purposes to have the 40 year limit in the Caminetti bill reduced to 25 years and send 'the measure through. This program ap parently is based on the theory that Glavis' bill was beaten in the lower house only because it was in Clark's custody and Clark had voted for the country caucus reapportlonment bill. . So far as public demonstration! is concerned no notice is taken of the \ fact that A. E. Boynton, president pro tern. of. the senate, was one of the ] chief factors In the . roundup of - votes against the Glavis-Clark .bill. ■ Never theless that Is the fact and there is something more than a probability of George C. Pardee's inability to make Boynton lie down to the Caminetti bill with, the 25 year amendment. PRIMARY BILL MAY BE CHANGED [Spccia/ Dispatch io The Call] CALL, HEADQUARTERS, SACRA MENTO, Dec. 17.—An effort will be made in the senate this week by Sen ator Leroy A. Wright of San Diego to make important changes in the presi dential preference primary bill, which was rushed through the assembly and is now before the upper house. Wright would make the measure more elastic by changing the plan of selecting delegates. Inasmuch as it is uncertain just what representation will be allowed California in the national convention, Wright has planned to ha.ye each distri't name delegates accord ing to the ratio. If the number allotted the state is his scheme would pro vide for naming two from each district and four at large. If the number is to be 20, he would name one from each district and elect nine at large. Another improvement to the bill to be offered by Wright is a provision that an advisory vote also may be ca.st for vice president.
