insert of the A Express which is boosting development at Long Beach so hard the more amazing it is coming from a publication that goes out and asks the San Pedro business men to support its effort to tear down San Pedro and build up Long Beach and Los Angeles Yesterday we quoted this medium for distributing Los Angeles advert mg to take trade out of town as favoring the deve opment ot upper inner because it is or six miles rearer to Los Angeles proper than the much touted 147 acres just ms ce the west end of the That vicious Knock at San Pedro coming from the News which asks support from the merchants here who do not get trade from Los proper but just 1 sten to the following boost for Long Beach the same two-column knock at San Ped-o printed in the News As a further development of the inner harbor the Anaheim viaduct is no dream and that strict is probably destined to becomr the greatest terminal on the Pacific coast On the other hand the dredging at the so-called 147 acres is a very hard bottom the borings showing rock she and even hard rock in 70 out of 70 tests made In othe- words for every rr le of wharf that can bs built at the west end of the breakwater seven mi es can be bu It the upper inner harbor so far as the cost of dredgmg is concerned The people who votec the bonds want the wharves bu 1 where they can get the most whaHAge at tne mmum cost and also where they can get the good hauled to their doors for the least mone and the shortest And this was pped from the News which preends to be loyal to San Pedro ard asks the support of San Pedro cit zens Ye Gods' San Pedro turned Over a harbor to Los Ange es for de velopment without cost The vacation of private property around this harbor ts three times the investment of Los Angeles the harbor We are not asking that Los Angeles to do more than she has agreed to do and we want the Cty to get va'ue received for every dollar Invested in the harbor We contend that the best tnvestmen that Los Ange'es can make the harfcor to cont rye irr-pce the outer harbor Angeles is not only honor bound by its consol dat on to improve the outer harbor but honor bound to protect the interests of the taxpaer of Los Angeles by invest ng the money rpuntcipaily owned and con-tro ed frontage and not to m-pove that controlled by a group of Lo speculators who are traitors to their own ty their attempt to vert development fom Los Angeles pub! ca! owned frontage to privately Owned property Long Beach We have $T5 000 000 mvesed Our community homes and other private property around the harbor bes des the harbor improvements and we have a right to demand that these property values be protected rather than the shoe string options taken on Long Beach industrial land by men who seem to have influence and power enough to get the News and Express to support their scheme to divert development to Long Beach TO DEDICATE TEMPLE Next Sundav a'ternoon members of the Odd Fellows Lodge in Lo-mta will dedicate
