CXX NO. 81 OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, MARCH 22, 1934 DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN COURTHOUSE mi ninni av WASHINGTON By GEORGE DURNO UN UIDrLHI All horse cars led to the Ferry Building? This "com" modious and convenient passenger station," as a writer of the day described it, was the latest word in architectural and transportation magnificence when it vas commissioned on September 4, 1875, the day this photograph was taken. The Central Pacific Railroad, predecessor of the Southern Pacific, built it, moving all passenger service from its old slips on Davis Street, between Broadway and Pacific Street.

Such commuters as Oakland furnished, together with transcontinental travelers, here on ferry boats direct from the old Long Wharf on the Oakland side of the bay. By 1877 the Eastbay commuters had increased to such a point that the building was moved a few feet and three new slips built; the building remained unchanged until 18, when the present structure replaced the rambling wooden "shack." Civic boosters of the day hailed the horse-cars as fast and comfortable. Note the post-bordered traffic lane for the security of pedestrians. This is one of a series of photographic reminiscences of days now gone. TOHORROWi THOSE WERE THE QOOD OLD DAYS R.

L. HAIGHT IN RACE FOR GOVERNOR Former Commissioner Seeks To Follow Grandfather; Vandegrift Also May Run By ANTHONY F. MOITORET. Raymond L. Haight of Los Angeles, former sta'te corporation commissioner and a grandson of the late Governor H.

H. Haight today formally announced his candidacy for governor. At the same time Finance Director Rolland A. Vandergrift added his name to the list of probable opponents of Haight and others already campaigning when he revealed that he had been approched by San Francisco and Los Angeles groups urging him to cast his hat into the ring. Vandergrift indicated that his plans would depend upon what Governor Rolph decides to do- Haight' formal announcement was not unexpected, inasmuch as he has been up and down the state recently rounding up support.

In a statement released by the California Reconstruction League, with headquarters in Los Angeles, announcement is made that Haight's campaign will be based upon a program "designed to smash graft, waste and monoply throughout California." REHABILITATION PLANK. The program is further declared to cover rehabilitation of the unemployed through self-help relief units, abolition of duplicating agencies of local government, reduction of transport, operating and tax charges to farmers, a coordinated state police system, abolition of the present state parole board and secret paroles, creation of two statewide courts and elimination of red tape from the judiciary, revision of the state constitution, control of public debt by a state debt board, outlawing insurance and investment racketeering, strict utility regulation and limitations on holding companies of chain stores. In addition, he is pledged to sane administration of liquor laws, maintenance of high educational standards and to war on unfitness, incompetence and lack of integrity in the public service. Haight believes the younger voters are "fed up" on old-time politi cal methods and considers his campaign in the nature of a challenge to those who would oust "vacillating office-holders and vested minorities which have destroyed the faith of the average Californian in his state government." NATIVE OF SAN JOSE. Haight is a native of San Jose and is 37 years old.

He is a graduate of San Francisco and Los Angeles schools and first held public office in Venice, having been city attorney there in 1924 when it was consolidated with Los Angeles. He later served as commissioner of playgrounds and recreation in Los Angeles and became state corporation commissioner in 1931. "My decision to become a candidate for the governorship was influenced by the widespread dissatisfaction among sincere people and confirmed by a statewide poll for a candidate who is not tied up with political factions," said Haight. Vandegrift, discussing the prof-1 fers of support in an election race, said he had not given an answer. "When Governor Rolph announces what he is going to do, the aspects of the situation will be considered," he said.

"I have not talked to the governor yet and I do not want to commit myself until I have seen him." Vandegrift added that he would not run for governor if Governor Rolph decides to seek re-election. But the governor's plans would not affect proposals being, made to him to run for lieutenant governor, he explained. Jobs Daughters to Give Bridge Party Oakland Bethel, No. 73. Orde-of Jobs Daughters, will give a bridge tea and fashion show Wednesday afternoon, with Ardyce Munk, queen of the Bethel, and Margaret Hey-man, general chairman, in charge.

The affair will be held from 2 to 5 o'clock in Kahn's Little Theater. Dresses for sports, afternoon. TI IN PHflTlilgX CALENDAR Congressional leaders are more and more convinced that Roosevelt" wSl side DEBTS step the war debt issue durngthis session. They'veconcluded Iftajiff message was the last important legislative request to be made before adjournment. On Capitol Hill they agree he'll probably communicate with them on debts in the closing days of the session.

But they look for only a factual report rather than a formal proposal for revising and collecting Europe's obligations. For one thing all our Presidents since the war have found the debt question a stick of dynamite when they had to tote it to Congress for approval of some move. It is possible the President has a scheme up his sleeve to be produced after the legislators leave town. Still any agreement he might reach with our reluctant debtors would have to be ratified by Congress. -0 0 Though tlie story has been Roosevelt FOILED never printed.

once upon a time had a grand idea for scotching this knotty problem. You may remember that right after being elected he was called into conference by Hoover. The former President also had a plan, but he knew only a united front by himself and Roosevelt would have any effect on Congress or the people. Roosevelt refused any part in the Hoover formula on the ground that his hands were tied until he was inaugurated. What Roosevelt planned was to issue a dramatic invitation on March 4 probably while his inaugural parade was going down Pennsylvania Avenue asking the foreign premiers to come here for a conference that would clear up the debt headache for all time.

It's history now that inauguration day found the banks busting in his face all over the country. The invitation to our foreign brethren was never sent. When he did get around to calling in Europe's head men the debt iron had cooled in one of his hands and the London Economic Conference was a hot potato in the other. OOO Republican hopes ai on tin REBOUND rebound over the way the tariff fight is shaping up. A Republican scout has returned to camp with a report that 19 Democratic Senators will bolt the President on his wanted power to make his own reciprocal tariff agreements.

Should this come off the administration would be licked. The Democratic majority in the upper House is only 24 and the only so-called Republican votes Roosevelt can count on are said to be those of Norris, LaFollette and Cutting. Democratic leaders deny the accuracy of this enemy poll, but they're none too happy over prospects. They know that even if they win they're going to be bruised in the battle. All the top men on the majority side in both Houses advised the President against making his tariff request at this session.

They said it was merely manufacturing the only issue the Republicans could lay their hands on for thp coming campaign. He sent it anywriyfrfesurnablv in deference to Secretary of State Hull, whose official hasn't been altogether roseate. OOO Friends of Frank Walk- er are sore at Ray NEC Moley who of all people took a sock at this original Roosevelt man. Moley's magazine "Today" allowed as how the next congressional investigation should be of the National Emergency Council of which Walker is executive director. It was broadly hinted that instead of being a bureau of Federal information mysterious things were going on behind closed doors at Council headquarters.

At this public mention of one old friend by another the NEC information bureau opened its doors with a swish. One and all may now step in and look their fill at elaborate charts, and even ask questions. OOO But the publicity served to develop one interesting feature about WALKER Walker, who resigned as treasurer of the Democratic National Committee so as not to interfere with his Emergency Council work. Walker draws a $10,000 salary but turns it back to the Federal Treasury. He commutes weekly between here and New York with a secretary whom he pays personally and their traveling expenses are turned in to Uncle Sam.

Oth-Per Federal office-holders who know about this think Walker is daffy. Quiet, but good-natured. Walker has been the President's chief trouble-shooter and peace-maker in these past hectic months. Whenever two of the Roosevelt official family began tearing each other's hair over some matter of policy it was Frank's job to get them off in a corner and calm them down. It's said he's done very well at this thankless task.

The stock market holds up fairly well because every day's delav indicates re NOTES Knave Week-Day Column That trip that Mayor William J. McC a en and other city AUTO RIDE officials and their wives made to San Jose on Monday night to meet the Union Pacific's new aluminum train turned out to be a nice automobile ride and nothing else. Ditto, almost, for John M. Bonner and Joa Parker, president and secretary, respectively, of the Oakland Chamber of Commerce. Bonner and Parker's plight differ from that of McCracken Co.

only to this extent they had a train ride to San Jose, but returned by auto. The city officials, like the Cham ber of Commerce leaders, were Invited by the Union Pacific to board the new train at San Jose and ride to Oakland. Mayor McCracken took along City Manager John F. Hassler, Chief of Police Bodie Wallman and Mrs. McCracken, Mrs.

Hassler and Mrs. Wallman. Arrived at the San Jose station. they congratulated themselves on being ahead of time. The aluminum train was not at the station platform, but there was quite a crowd on hand and somebody said the train was up the track a bit in the yards.

The Oaklanders didn know they were supposed to walk up the track to the train. In fact, when they saw it slide down the track toward the station platform, they expected it to stop and let them on. But it didn't. It slid right past them, a streak of shining yellowin the dusk, and was gone! The TJnion Pacific people, it turned out, had sent an escort to the station to bring the Oakland of ficials up the railroad yard to the train, but he didn't know them by sight and he didn't see anybody that looked like a mayor, a city manager or a chief of police. Mayor McCracken at least had the satisfaction of finding other Oak-landers a little worse off, for Bonner and Parker had no transportation back to Oakland.

The mayor bundled them into the city's car and a merry ride was enjoyed by all back to Oakland. Back in 1926, Per- Newberry FUTILITY abandoned writ ing detective nov els in Carmel long enough to hava charge of staging the Serra Pilgrim age. One of the features of the celebration was an elaborate art exhibition with valuable paintings en tered from world famous artists in all parts of the country. A few days before the celebration opened, Newberry became worried over the paintings that were in his possession for fear that they might be stolen or burned. In order to safeguard them, he placed them at Hotel Del Monte to be kept there until the day the celebration started.

That same night that Newberry had them moved, Hotel Del Monte caught fire and burned to the ground. All of the valuable paintings were destroyed. OOO A resident of Oakland whose interest in see--ing that all CWA workers employed in NOSEY this vicinity are full fledged American citizens is stronger than his knowledge of races, ran into something out at the old Union Construction Company plant this week when he questioned the citizenry of one of the workers. This particular individual was driving past where a large force of men were busily engaged in wrecking the old shipyard which has just been taken over by the Port of Oakland. In the crowd he noticed one laborer who was very dark." The patriotic gent felt certain that here, at least, was one CWA worker who had no place on the job.

Getting out of his machine he approached the dark-skinned laborer. "Are you an American?" he asked in his sternest manner. The laborer stopped work and looked long at his questioner. "I think I am," he responded after a considerable pause during which he took in his questioner from hat to toes. "What do you mean? You think you are?" was the next question.

"Don't you know whether you ar an American or not. Haven't yon any naturalization papers?" "No I haven't any paper "Then it's just as I suspected. You are not an American." "Oh, I don't know about that, was the slow response from th worker. "I'm probably more of an American than you are, for I'm a full blooded Indian." The questioner turned red, gulped a couple of times and pointed hit nose and his automobile away from there. OOO ormer mem bers of the one REUNION flourishing Re liance A Ietio Club, I learn, are giving thought to a reunion to talk over old timet, A recent gathering which brought surviving members of the earlier Acme Club together is credited with having started the movement.

The Reliance Club, a new genera tion needs to be informed, was Oak-land's equivalent of the Olympic Club in its day- The club had its headquarter! in the building at San Pablo Avenue and Clay Street now occupied by the American Theater. It made several moves around and I believ the high cost of moving was one. of the reasons for its dissolution. Some kind of an assessment on the members for alterations in new Quarters, I believe, was the final straw and the club passed out of the picture In 1910. But it was a grand and glorious) organization in its day and kept the sport spotlight focused on Oakland.

Just ask any group of greybeards gathered at the funeral of an old-timer. of tha Reliance Club, were revive1 at the funerals recentry of County Clerk George Gross and Robert M.
