Harbor's Prosperity IsDeclared At Stake

By SpeakersProving their sincerity for the

development and growth of the whole harbor district, thirty-three boosters from Torrance responded to the call for a large delegation to meet with others a± the Council Chambers in Los Angeres last Mon­ day at 2, to lend aid to the Santa Fe Railroad who desire terminals at the San Pedro harbor.

AJ1 Los Angelea strongly de­ sires that the City Council speed­ ily permit the Santa Fe railroad to extend its lines into the Los An­ geles harbor district, was the dec­ laration of many speakers at yes­ terday afternoon's hearing at the City Hall by the Public Utilities Committee" of the Council on the company's application for a fran­ chise,

Representing the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce which is strongly behind the Santa Fe's ap­ plication, was a committee compos­ ed of former presidents Sylvester L. Weaver and Maynard McFle, Shan­ non Crandall and F. P. Gregson. The latter also represented the Associated Jobbers which has heart­ ily apporved of the Santa Fe's de­ sire, long ago cherished by the late President Ripley of the railroad, to extend the company's lines to the Pacific ocean at Los Angeles harbor.

McFEB SPEAKSAlso endorsing the extension of

the railroad is the Torrance Cham­ ber of Commerce, which sent a large delegation o( business men to yesterday's hearing, the spokes­ man of which was City Attorney Brlney of Torrance. The San Pedro and Los Angeles Harbor chambers of commerce as well as the Asso­ ciated Chambers of Commerce of the Fourth Supervisorial District, which includes Long Beach, Her- mosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, Huntington Park and other cities In the district, have slmillarly for­ warded resolutions of approval to the Los Angeles City Council.

nue will not be heavy for many years to come, and the hazzards of existing grade crossings will not be materially increased. When the traffic does develop to the point where public safety demands that these grades be separated, you will not find the Santa Fe opposing the separation. In the twelve miles of our proposed extension from El Se gunda to Wilmington, our plans call for the separation of grades at twelve places, including HaVbor boulevard, and the cost of the sep­ aration of grades will be $600,000.

Other speakers who urged the Council's Public Utilities Committee and Councilman Conaway and Sparks, to make a favorable rec­ ommendation on the company's ap­ plication included Capt, Louis Han- sen, P. C. Pinkie of the Southwest Chamber of Commerce and City Attorney Brlney of Torrance.

M. E. AIDThe Ladies Aid of the M. E.

Church met Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. J. O| Bishop, of Andreo avenue," with a large attendance. The regular business meeting was held and plans were made to hold an experience social Monday July 31, with a pot luck dinner in connection at the Dom- inguez gales room on El Prado stree. Any one interested is wel­ come to attend.

KEYSTONESBusiness is good, both the Shell

and Midway oil men are with us again, land values are going up and numerous buyers are in our midst, we hope everyone will lease their ground soon so we can get a drill started. We can hardly hope for a well until all the leases are safe In the hands of the oil com­ panies.

Mrs. Day reports some half doz­ en sales last week and Mr. Thomas reports business better every day It looks like Long Beach would have to move over here soon by the way her citizens are buying in Key­ stone.

, Torrance Chamber of Commerce is preparing a Fiesta for August and Keystone folks are invited to join in and make It a big suc­ cess.

Wm. McClaren capped land prices in Keystone last week by disposing of a part of his property at $2500

The Examiner fell down on the delivery of papers again last Sun^ day because the local agent did not show up, some bright lad in Key­ stone ought to grab this job and by giving the people an efficient service he would acquire a good business.

You should begin now to think about the meeting of the local C. of C. that is to held the first Saturday night in August. There will be a petition there that must have the signature of every voter in Keystone. It will be presented to the County Supervisors asking that the low places in all our cross streets be tilled and oiled before the fall rains begin. Talk this mat­ ter over with your neighbor and get on the job, if you show a lack of interest in this matter you* can not expect much in the way of results.

We notice that M. R. Gallimore is working early and late on an addition to his house, it is evident that he is expecting the wife home from hr eastern trip very soon. Go to it Marshall a little more speed will do the business.

Messrs Barnes, Getz and Dodo; are contemplating moving their houses to the front of their re­ spective places, this will aid in se­ curing lights and phones, elimin­ ating the necessity of an extra poll others should do likewise. '
