In answer to his suggestion it was resolved that the city engineer should be instructed to draw up specifications concerning the repair of Wat-kins, a part of lower It, between Sixth and Seventh and street from Watkins to Second, together with other smaller pieces of work that need attention. At the same time the city clerk was instructed to ask for bids on the street sprinkling in Hayward during the coming months.

Regarding the decision of the board in adopting a more or less substantial type of wire fencing relations committee have received with surprise the news of the "right about face" executed by tho Ausira-lian atid New Zealand premiers on the propoped renewal of the British-Japanese alliance. The two premiers are now understood to favor instead of opposing, aa they formerly did, the continuation of the pact, thereby leaving Canada alone in its opposition to it.

The Canadians are represented as being opposed to any international move by the Firitish government at this time which would incur the dis-approval and disfavor of the United States.

Railroad transportation in Russia has- practically come to a complete Rtoppage on 31 lines, according to official figures just received by tho French commercial bureau on Russia and the border gtates.

In 1917 the Norwegian society, a Ktock company called "Gannovig," proposed to the czar's government a vast scheme for railroad construction in Northern Russia, together with the exploitation of the forests along the way. It is said that the government is now considering this echeme again, and has appointed committee to work out a system of concessions and guarantees. Considerable interest is being: ex. pressed also in the revival of a plan to construct railroads linking Russian centers with the Baltic and the Black Sea. The plan for the railroads to the Baltic and the Black Sea have been recast by the engineer, Reissler.

One of them is to "ink up Orenburg, Sa- raara. 'Moscow and Libau. Two 'nther plans would run a line from Mocsow to Reval, a pruje-t in which the Esthonian government Is said, to be deeply interested.

Resolutions condemning as a menace to state and county road construction the California State Automobile Association and the Automobile Club of Southern California were "unanimously passed yesterday by the Tolo county board of supervisors. They were addressed to Governor Stephens and the two clubs and were presented by William chairman of the Yolo board of supervisors. The board takes exception to the motor associations attempting to limit the power of supervisors of the state in fixing the maximum load that heavy trucks may carry overt country roads. It Is alleged that county roads will not stand heavy loads, such as urged by. the two associations.

The resolutions follow: Whereas, certain developments during the recent session of the California legislature disclosed a condition warranting action on the part of the several supervisorial bodies of the state, and Whereas, these developments make it manifestly plain that the California State Automobile Association and the Automobile Club of Southern California, organized, ostensibly, to promote the welfare of the motorist and the highways of the several counties of the state, have apparently abandoned such purpose and linked themselves with commercial interests as represented by manufacturers) of trucks, tires, and Whereas, It is generally known that these two organizations, with a combined membership of less than fifty thousand motorists out of nearly 700,000 in the state, are not representative of the motorists but on the contrary are impotent, self-constituted and under present management a menace to the maintenance of good roads and the prevailing idea of local self government for the several counties of the state, and Whereas, this effort to deprive the supervisors of the several counties of the right to regulate the gross weight of loads on the highways for the preservation thereof; their effort to open the highways to the selfish instinct or caprice of the truckmen; their effort in combatting' every effort 10 provide for. future maintenance of the roads and highways through beneficial legislation; their open and avowed hostility to the officials of the 'Several (counties and, finally, their determination to utterly destroy a successful program of highway construction has subjected them to the warranted condemnation of the progressive and constructive forces of the state, and therefore be it Resolved, by the board of supervisors of Yolo county, that we unqualifiedly condemn the action of the two associations mentioned and ask that the people of the county withhold their support from them until such time as it is shown that both organizations purpose to co-operate with the people of the state in a program of progressive construction and proper maintenance.

Cow's Picture Argument for Building Plan As an argument in favor of a $25,000 apartment house at Foothill Boulevard and Fairfax ave-nune, Charles P. Eggleston, real estate man, today sent to Superintendent of Streets George Mattis a picture of a cow on the lot where the apartment house ought to be. Neighbors protested against the apartment house. Eggleston forth-, with produced a cow, posed the cow artistically, and then took the animal photograph. Which must it be, the cow or trm.

apartment house?" pleads KggXston. i'jggieston admits that the cow is a producer and a benelit to the neighborhood, but by comparison with an apartment house the cow is a nuisance and an eyesore. The block, says F.ggleston, at present only supports one cow, and lean fodder at that. With an apartment house, he says, many families can be housed and a $25,000 investment to Oakland's taxable wealth. "We cannot have cow pastures in that neighborhood forever," he asserts.

The neighbors, on the other hand, express unyielding opposition to the apartment house. They say it is a residence district and they want no apartments. "The picture looks best with the cow on it," they say. The cow is still on the Job. Wobbly Worker Held Without Bond in Yolo Federal Officer Takes Man Accused of Stirring Up Trouble.
