Aug. furtherance of the bonds which are to be voted upon, in this city a week from Saturday, A series of meetings is to be held in ditferent parts of the city to acquaint the voters with the merits of the proposals. One rally has been arranged to be held ROON at the Berkeley high school auditorfum, when the speakers will be Mayor Heywood, Professor Thomas H.

J. Bither and others have Joined the committee on the campaign A8 representatives of the west end, while other sections are also in evidence. Dr. David P. Harrows of the university is another supporter of the issue.

He has Issued the following statement of his views for the use of the campaign committee: "In campAigning for the success of the city bond Issue, I hope that the advantages of an Improved waterfront will not be underemphasized. Some months ago I had the opportunity of viewing the comprehensive plans of Colonel Reis for a harbor and waterfront, extending from the Oakland mole to the city of Richmond. Two miles and half of this waterfront and harbor would be within the city limits of Berkeley. The reclamation of land between the bulkhead and the present shore would give to the municipality of Berkeley an area of many hundreds of acres of the most valuable sort. I should expect that the city would be many times over reimbursed through the lease of this great waterfront, for factory purposes and shipping facilities.

NATURE'S DECREE. "Nature has determined it that the great industrial plants of San Francisco bay must be on this short. Here it is possible, under such a plan as that of Colonel Reis, to place a great system of factories right upon the waterfront, where ocean-going shipping, with the raw products of the world, can discharge immediately into the factories themselves, and where -the finished product can be again reshipped by sea or sent out by rail, with the complete elimination of the very expensive elements of cartage and re-handling. "Few opportunities exist anywhere in the world comparable to our own to create a great industrial center under most Improved conditions. That portion of Berkeley lying to the east of the Southern Pacific track and University avenue station should not be further utilized for factory location.

It should be reserved and improved, under a comprehensive scheme of city planning, as a residential area for the great population which will find its livelihood in the factory establishments that will sometime be located upon the two and one-half miles of new waterfront. West Berkeley still contains what no other part of our municipality possesses- a considerable area of unoccupied level ground, still available at moderate coat for comfortable, modern homes. A comprehensive city plan should be adopted for this portion of the city, giving due regard to fine streets, parks, playgrounds, schools, and all other social interests. It is the coming home of a great and well-to-do population, which will find its occupation in the adjacent industrial establishments built on land reclaimed from the sea. "This is not a dream; it 19 a practical proposition capable of immediate realization.

The first step is to provide the bonds. necessary to secure federal action, and to preserve to the city the conditional donation of the waterfront made by the state ELKS OF ALAMEDA WILL HOLD PICNIC Large Herd of Members Will Travel to Grand Canyon Park Sept. 9. ALAMEDA. Aug.

TELL OF FLIGHT FROM WAR ZONE Oakland Architect Writes Very Graphic Account of Scene in Paris. (Continued From Page 9) the effect on the people one of most saddening sights I have ever seen. After returning from a walk in the hills on Saturday, the last day in. July, we were Informed that a general mobilization had been ordered by the French government and was to commence that night-midnight, on the first of August. "This meant that our last chance to get into Paris would be before midnight, AS everything is seized by the government in time of war.

especially during the days of mobilization. Realizing that we had to leave and get to Paris 80 AS to be able to obtain a little money, we made much haste, said a hurried goodbye, which by the way, was our last and got the last train to Paris arriving there at midnight. "Everything in Paris WAS excitement everything was changed. In spite of all this we returned home, had a good sleep and passed the next day, which was Sunday by visiting the consul and ambassador, where we found. an Immense number of excited foreigners trying in some way for other to get money and thus fly the country.

SITUATION IS GRAVE. "About this time and especially the following day, or Monday, we began to realize that the situtalon WAS cert getting serious. Harrison, who was not supplied with any extra money, and who had his money in A French bank, suddenly discovered that he only had about two dollars and as the bank had apparently failed, he had no chance of getting more. Ed and myself had our money In an American bank which was the only one in Paris paying out any money. succeeded in getting about half of the money and Ed had similar luck the Arst day, or Monday.

The crowd trying to get money was Immense. The following day the bank refused to pay more than 5 per cent of our account. All bank notes over $10 were refused as payment and the government issued special paper money of smaller amounts to relieve the situation. "Everything wag thrown clear up In the air. Business came to a standstill, the reason being that Germany had clared war on Russia.

Germany and Russia were then in proper war condition. France Immediately knew that Germany was doing this 90 as to anger France to the point where she would declare war on Germany. Therefore. France ordered a general mobilization of the army And navy. This means that she calls together in a certain number of days all the men in the country between the ages of 20 and 50-without exception every able-bodied man is in the French army.

This also happens in Germany, Russia, etc. I used to hear of this army system, but I never realized what it was nor did I ever realize what war wag before. "And so the gathering together of the army was commenced on August 1, 1914. Two days later the war was declared between France and Germany. The effect on every French family, on every French industry and business was something awful.

Paris was changed in A single night. Fathers, brothers and husbands left their familles in great haste, saying only A hasty goodbye. All the railroad stations were crowded with red -eyed women and children. Inside of A week one saw nothing but women and children on the streets, except officers and soldiers, hurrying to and fro saying goodbye to their families. Suddenly you would see large band of excited youths marching through the boulevards behind a French flag, shouting 'Viva la "Foreigners, and especially Americans, hurried from all parts of Europe to Paris or London.

Thus you may well imagine the excitement caused by all these people as they tried to get accommodations, money and transportation. Hotelg gradually began to close, as their help were all called off to the front. Money was almost impossible to get and transportahas been absolutely out of the question up to the present time. All mails were stopped, all communications were cut off by telegraph or cable. The situation at first was one of hopeless despair.

SOUGHT FOR NEWS. "Above all this no one knew what conditions were In the United States since war was declared. In Europe, as have said, everything came to a standstill. Everything falled. The Ecole des Beaux Arts was turned Into a hospital for the Red Cross.

The patrons and teachers, and all the students had gone to the frontler to be in the first battles. In order to stay in Paris one had to get a permit from the chief of police. Military law, was declared throughout France. Every light had to be turned out at 9 o'clock. "We failed to And our old friends in the usual restaurants; everything was war, it was in the very air, it seized you and held' you.

Volunteers were being formed of all sorts of foreigners, who wished to see France become victorious, and who also wished to see the excitement and life of what is going to be the biggest war of modern civilization. The thought is awful, and many Frenchmen, Germans, etc. have been slezed with fear when they think of all the modern inventions, such as guns, aeroplanes, etc. A war. In this modern age and between such riations prepared to the last minute in the latest inventions of warfare, certainly no human thing and can Be nothing more than human slaughter of the worst kind.

"80 with all of these many different facts staring us in the face, with the additional chance that things might be bad in the United States, you may well imagine my state of mind. This has been my main thought and worry since arriving in Paris that lat day of August. "Our sudden departure from our sumto mer resort was rather sad and very much regretted by u8 all. As early as this men ware leaving. for the frontier.

Things in Paris were certainly beginning to take on a serious front. On arriving, home, 29 Rue de Vaugirard, we met the landlady, who was in tears, as her husband was lenving the following morning for war. "Little. Information we obtained that day, only An occasional paper' which told nothing, as everything Progressive Dances Restored to Favor in University RanKs UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, Aug. women who have decided to allow then progressive dances from now at college functions have formally received faculty support in their action.

As the student body's opinions on new dances have received revision over the vacation, so the faculty has decided that its former ideas thereof were incorrect. It is from Miss Lucy Stebbins, the dean of women, that the anpouncement comes. She declares ft is the duty of those in power to Abide by decisions of this kind when made by the students. During the summer Miss Stebbins interviewed authorities at other universitles and found that many of them had had the "problem" of the new dances to face. At Illinois, Michigan and other colleges approval of the dances had been given.

Miss Stebbins is of the opinion that co-operation of the senior men with the women in enforcing the rules, combined with the heln of the undergraduate body, "will make perfectly plausible the faculty's and seniors' permission for progressive dancing." absolutely everything, is controlled by the government. "Monday morning we arose bright and early to attend to our business. We went to the bank Morgan, Harjes 31 Boulevard Haussmann. Harrison went to his bank 'Banque de l'Union 14 Rue de Peteller. There was quite a large crowd at our bank, and we were forced to wait hours for our money.

While waiting, Harrison returned from his bank to announce that they had stopped all payments. Fortunately Ed and myself were able to draw 1000 francs aplece. In the afternoon we tried to see if it were possible to get passage on the American Iner salling from England. This we found to be impossible. "Tuesday, August 4, 1914, we went to the police commission to get our papers in order to stay in Paris.

Ed and I remained in line from 8 o'clock until 12 o'clock. We ate lunch and then proceeded down to the "Compangnie General Translantique' to secure some passages on the steamer which was scheduled to sail from Havre on the 8th of August. We were very fortunate in securing three places. They agreed to hold them until the following morning. We returned to Morgan, Harjes Co.

to see if we would be able to draw the rest of our money out in a draft on some bank in the United States. We were not fortunate enough to get this information until the following day which was to the effect that it would be impossible at the present moment. down "Wednesday, town. Ed and August myself 5th, decided returned long and hot arguing to remain in Paris for 8 short while at least. Yet I had the thought that it would be best to take this apparent opportunity offered and leave for a safe country.

We said goodbye to Harrison. telling him that we would 890 him in the evening. We walked down to the Opera, talking and arguing all the way over the situation. It all had to be decided in the moment for better or worse. We finally decided to go with Harrison.

At the most I would be out the boat fare over and back if the war were suddenly to come to an end. I would be on the safe soll and if things are not too bad, I can work for awhile again and wait until the war has finished. In all cases I decided it was the move to make for all concerned. Especially you, my family. "We found upon getting our tickets that It would be necessary to leave Thursday morning at 3:30 o'clock.

BAGGAGE WATCHED. "We Immediately returned home and commenced our packing. We were allowed to take only one hand bag. but Harrison and myself took a chance and got away with two. We put all of our trunks and furniture in Harrison's room on the seventh floor.

We arranged everything with the landlady and left our apartment at midnight. Sad, is to say the least. I could hardly bear to talk to anyone. "It was a beautiful. night and the city at that hour showed no signs of war.

We arrived at the station about 1 o'clock. Here we met a great many people waiting for the 3:30 train to Havre. At 3 o'clock we were allowed to get on the train and found a compartment thus giving us an opportunity to sleep. 'The ride along the Seine river in the early morning hours was very charming. Every bridge and crossing on the railroad was guarded by soldiers.

We also passed many trains loaded with soldiers. About 6 o'clock we passed through the beautiful little town of Mantes, where we had been the week previous enjoying ourselves. "We found lodging in the 'Grand Hotel Here we remained until Saturday, August 8, 1914. Nothing happened of importance between the 6th and 8th, excepting false reports of sailing and war telegrams. Havre was a very prett little town with a great many beautiful spots.

The general alr of the town was a great deal happier than that of Parls. "Saturday evening, August 8, we came aboard the There WAS a great deal of difficulty in finding our bertha and a great many people were forced to sleep on deck. For example. had a good berth in a state room with two berths, but owing to the general rush, the other berth was occupied by 8 young lady. Of course, I had to give it up as did many others, who found themgelves in the same situation.

I did succeed in getting a berth in the steerage. Here I found many fine people, apparently of fine standing. Everybody on board paid the same price for their tickets. The only difference 19 that some of us slept in poorer berths than DIES AFTER ACCIDENT. BERKELEY, Aug.
