Los Angeles, Calif, March 13, 194) Editor, Centre Democrat, Dear Sirs—This noon we started | on a sight-seeing trip to Santa] Monica, then south along the coast to Plaza~Del-Rey. Here you see oll wells in the town and on the beach, from there to Manhatten Beach We found the home of Max Badle and family. He was a former Julian boy and received his high school education in Bellefonte, He 1s em- ployed by an aircraft corporation and is doing well, From there Ww Hermosa, then to Redonda. The tide at Redonda Beach has been doing some harm, the bank being under- mined by the tide. A small number of houses went into the ocean. A lot of houses have been taken [rom foundations and moved to safety From there to Hollywood Reveria then to Palo Verde, This is very aristocratic section. Vegetable flowers are cultivated very fully. Then to Sal Fermind point a section of ground in size has been slipping toward the ocean, is now sunk 7 feet; everytl moved off and fenced to keep every- thing off. Then to Fort Mac Arthur Here you can of very large caliber Big Berthas” here The bay is a many sizes, a | cific fleet is in th ter leaving the harbor Long Beach.

Following the tour, the group were the guests of Al Plerce and his gang at his broadcast in the evening. We went to the Paramount Theatre in downtown Los Angeles the only theatre in Los Angeles that has a stage show. We saw the mo- tion picture “The Lady Eve” Sat- urday a. m. a beautiful sunny day 1 spent the moming down town alone. Wag on Pershing Square part of the time—a real park. There you can hear any subject discussed. The men will gather in groups and the group that makes the most noise is the most popular. After a little shops ping 1 eathe home. In the p. m. we started for a drive, the first unpleas- ant sight was on the outskirts of Culver City, a low place in the road where the water was so deep the cars stalled. Before they could be taken some were covered by wash over the top and they had to be shoveled out. From there we went to Santa Moniea Beach. This was one of the most popular beaches on the coast. Looking down the Palisades over the Roosevelt Highway to the beach obe could see people in bathe ing, flowers in full bloom: a real place of amusement with the many shade trees, green grass, flowers in bloom. benches on, all ad- ded to comfort and beauty. Leavi there a short distance north we came on more flood disasier. The Roosevelt Highway closed to traffic We went to Will Rogers ranch It closes to the public at 4 p. m. We were too late to enter. Drove by a few miles, a very beautiful well-kept flower garden, then we drove through the Topango Canyon. This canyon is very rugged and steep: hid been so shut up by labd slides it" was closed to travel for a few days; had not been open but a short time before we.arrived. We passed several road cleaning equipments sich as big gas shovels, gas scrapers and bull-dozers. After passing over the Topango Canyon we were soon in San Fernando valley. Our first attention was directed to a place where some land agents tried in 1926 to develop a section five or six miles square into a residential city. Had it marked into lots and town blocks, graded and paved the streets and shdewalks, planted shade trees Af- ter spending millions of dollars for development could only sell a few lots, and were broken up complete- Iy.

Another possibility is that the Nazis may have considered such an enterprise and later called it off. Whatever the facts may be the British might be expected to pass the information along to us for in times like these even sensational rumors cannol be ignored, Scarcheads of Another Day It will be remembered that in the first World War there were almost dally scare tales of American trans ports being torpedoed. but when the fog was lifted it developed that no American transport had encountered a hostile U-boat The newspaper reporters the emergency on the Washington front must send their newspapers what they gather if the alleged news comes to them from quarters that they deem reliable. Nobody, for ex- ample, thinks that the tale printed last week concerning the supplying of 80 or 100 vessels—torpedo boats and freighters—was invented by the writer, In this particular instance it was possible to contradict the story because at the time it was written no selection of the sort of ships to be passed to the British had been made, Doubtless the need of the British-—particularly for cargo boats ~was being canvassed and ways and means were being studied. Somebody evidently got wind that such a sur- vey was under way and transplanted the prospect into an accomplished fact. The newspaper men are bes deviled by two circumstances: first, the governmental necessity of keep ing secret information that might (be detrimental to the anti-Axis covering couse, and secondly, hy the report. | er's duty to his publication to fur {nish such information as he gathers to his newspaper. On the other hand, [the government, shunning any ap- proach to censorship and vilally |concerned with preserving the free. | (dom of the press, can neither head | off such publications nor correct [them if they be erroneous, i Words Often Misspelled Impassable (not admitting a pass- age); lmpassible (unfeeling).
