EMPLOYEES ARE
RE" APPOINTED
A u-pecial call meeting of the Or-
ange City commission was held yes-
terday afternoon' at 3 o'clock upon
tlie call uf MayurJS. M. Depwc, at
which ' time several of the city em-
ploye* were re-appointed by the
—mayor, with ratification by"' the city
commission, all member* being pres-
ent. " "*■*; ,• ,,
The .entire wharf und dock hoard
members were re-appointed aK fol-
lows: . B. P. Brown, chairman; K. W.
Brown Jr., <3eo. Colbert,. 0., M, Bella
and I). K. Roach, with the mayor
constituting an ex-offlclo member.
Other appointments made and con-
firmed were: (.'apt. John Ferguson,
harbormaster; Dr. M,, K, Mater. city
•sanitary Inspector; Dr. Will 1'. Coyln,
health ofTlcer, H.,,A. Nies, fire mar-
shal: Cal Price, gas and electric In-
spector.
W. L. Blunchard/ former mayor,
was named as project supervisor for
several government aid projects now
In the' course of consummation. The
former mayor had agreed to render
his assistance without cost to the
city for his services.
An ordinance to pay a $ 100.00 re-
ward for information leading to the
~ arrest and < oiuictlon of any person
'for tlie crime of arson, was read and
' adopted by the commission.
There was a discussion of the mat-
ter of employing the fourth police-
man ou the Incut force without action
being taken at-,this tline. It was
agreed by all members of the com-
mission that four or five policemen
should be employed on the force, pro-
vided it was found to be possible
without having to increase the rate
oftuxatloti. .MaylTT™ IK'pwe made the
point that it was absolutely unsafe
In his opinion for the town to be pa-
trolled at ariy time by a lone police-
man. It is known that throughtout
the day, only the police chief is on
duty' arid that only two men arc on
duty at ni«ht. '
PLAN TO REOPEN
LET'S DO
SOMETHING
ABOUT IT
I
r'
I-— ~
■ - ,i,
The need of ample police facilities
lias been demonstrated In Orange' in
the. past few years. It "should be re-
membered that this is a border city
und that with the rapid Increase of
activities In all lines' naturally In-
creases the necessity for more po-
lice protection. Orange needs by all
muans four policemen.
-•-Some -olieotmmement is being re-
ceived by those who are backing a
movement to clean up vacant i lots
which have been a menace to the ap-
pearance of the city throughout this
year of our centennial. L. D, S. A. I.
Probably hut few people of this
town, even those who bear the bur-
den, realixe full.v the cost of unneces-
sary fire hazards. Those most in-
terested should make an Investiga-
tion of the cause of numerous penal-
ties being charged up to the insurers.
Looks like there might bo another
good chance presented to the citi-
zens of Orange to have sidewalk and
curbing done at. a very slflpll cost. It
Is understood that through a new
source of government aid sidewalk
building can be done at a coat on a
basis of 50 feet for $10;00, the slab
to he four Inches thick and. four feet
wide, curbing to be done at a pro-
■ poc'lotlate cost.
Orange couility citizens should not
be Impatient at the apparent slow
progress in construction of the new
court house. Without" a doubt this
structure will be one that will
given every care possible In order
that the county and thu national gov-
ernment may realise 100 ceftts on the
-dollar.
'. This has been a year so far in
which Orange merchant's have appar-
ently been well pleased with the re-
sults of advertising. It Is the general
concensus of opinion thatju Mt 26 w & pttrk, , Superintendent o>
per cent of the trade that used .to- ^,st orange school, announced to
go to Beaumont and elsewhere has
been turned back to local merchants
whose prices In most Instances ac-
tually discount those of much larger
'cities. , , vi £

Counsel for Dr. Kranklyn Thorpe
planned to reopen today "for a
complete and thorough bearing" the
court contest which resulted in an
order giving Dr. Thorpe and his ex-
wife, Mary Astor. alternate custody
of their daughter, Matytyn.
Angered by a statement Ilolund It.
AVoolley, Miss Aster's attorney issued
after Judge Kritght approved of the
custody agreement, Anderson de-
clared:
"I will petition to reopen the ease
because in the interest of my client I
feel that the signature which he
(Wooltcy) placed. and which I
thought was In good faith, to the
stipulation, was apparently insincere,
and if so. In order- to protect the
rights of tny client. I feel that the
case * should be Immediately reopened
for' a complete and thorough hear-
ing." . v
He would al^o petition to the
court, he declared. " to determine
if it was contempt of court for Mr.
Woolley to prepare in advance of
the decision a typewritten copy to
he handed out immediately after the
decision."
Dr. Thorpe, Anderson said, was
"gracious enough, fortified as he was
with an abundance of evidence, to
yield partial custody rather than In-
troduce the evidence which might
materially Harm—the mother and
thereby Indirectly 'cast a reflection
upon the child."
Anderson, asked; If he would try to
huve Miss Astor's famous purple-
inked diary brought into the case,
said lie would seek to have Judge
Knight read .the diary as u basis for
Ills argument that the case* should
be reopened.
'•However,' f do not think its con-
tents should be made public," he
added.
