THE MUNICIPAL RECORD
The President Speaks
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT has invited the nations
of the world to participate in the 1939 Golden Gate
International Exposition. In his proclamation the Presi-
dent has given definite reasons for the holding of the
World's Fair in Western America's most romantic city.
The President has said:
"There is to be held at San Francisco during the
year 1939 a World's Fair which has for its purpose the
celebration of the completion of the San Francisco-
Oakland Bridge and the Golden Gate Bridge, and which
is designed to depict and exhibit the progress and ac-
complishments of the Pacific area of the United States
in science, industry, business, transportation and cul-
ture, and which, because of its world character, will
contribute to the cordial relations among the nations of
the world."
Today this greater World's Fair, planned for 1939,
has brought pledges of participation from many of the
states of our Nation, from leading nations of Central
and South America, from the Orient, from the South
Seas and from Europe. It will be the greatest expo-
sition ever staged by any nation bordering on the Pa-
cific, perhaps the greatest exposition of all time.
The conception of an "All- Western States" exhibit
in 1939 is particularly attractive. It will draw world
attention to the vast projects, the agricultural, indus-
trial and cultural expansion, and other factors empha-
sizing the rise of the Western Empire. It will reveal to
the world the magnitude of the territory west of the
Rockies and the friendship we have with our neighbors.
California, and other far western states, should reap
widespread financial and population benefits from the
1939 Golden Gate International Exposition. Millions
of visitors will come to our city. To many of them there
will be afforded the opportunity to visit and tarry at
nearby cities and points of interest. To all of them,
who desire to take the time, there will be the oppor-
tunity to visit the Sacramento Valley — the "Golden
Empire" ; to cross the Bay and see "Marvelous Marin" ;
to journey into the San Joaquin, the richest agricul-
tural belt of the Nation ; to journey northward through
the wonderful Redwood Empire; to tour southward
through beautiful Santa Clara and the Salinas Valley —
the "Green Bowl" of the Nation — and on to the en-
chantment of Monterey and to glorious Southern Cali-
fornia ; and all will want to see our twin city of Oakland,
and Berkeley, and Alameda.
San Francisco is the gateway between America and
the Orient. The two bridges the people of California
have planned and are bringing to completion are the
greatest structures of the kind in the world. California
has asked all the people of the nation, and all the people
of the world, to join in the celebration of the two in-
spirational achievements. We predict that the 1939
Golden Gate International Exposition will be the most
beautiful, entertaining and successful exposition of all
time.

"To get the best econ-

with

you can advance timing {and performance) to new
limits.
Moat cars can be adjusted down to operate satis-
factorily on any gasoline. This adjustment Mdll,
of course, cut down on the power, performance.
Many of the 1937 cars on the road today are losing
from 10 to 18% of the power built into them at the
factory. If you want everything your car should
oflFer switch to Associated Aviation Ethyl gasoline.
MOTOR-CHECK — is another Associated ser-
vice. Your car tested and adjusted for maximum
performance and economy for as little as $1. (On
most cars.) Ask any Smiling Associated Dealer
where your local Associated Motor-Check labora-
tory is located. Car manufacturers say — "have your
engine tuned up every 5000 miles."

Electric Service Costs Less
In San Francisco
DOMESTIC rates in this city are substantially lower than in many of the other
principal cities of the nation.
Steady and substantial rate reductions have cut the cost of electricity in San
Francisco 42 per cent since 1928. The most recent rate reduction effective February
1st, 1937, means a yearly saving of $1,215,000 to San Francisco customers alone.
Think of this, too: Out of every dollar of revenue for electric service, we must in
turn pay out 15 cents in taxes. Our tax payment to the City of San Francisco for
the fiscal year 1936-37 is $1,549,000, the largest payment made by any single tax-
payer and the largest made by this company to any one community.

Citizens, City and County Officials Join to Make
Bridge Celebration Gala Affair
SUPERVISOR ARTHUR M. BROWN,
Jr., of San Francisco, general chairman
of the Golden Gate Bridge Fiesta to be
held in San Francisco May 27 to June 2
to celebrate the opening of the world's
longest single suspension span.
SHAKESPEARE had Puck put a
girdle about the earth in forty
minutes. In a little more than four
years Chief Engineer Joseph B. Strauss
has woven a ribbon of steel across the
portal of the world's mightiest ocean.
He has dreamed in steel and conceived
ill stone and wrought in both. And now
the day of his glory is at hand.
In telling the story of the Golden
Gate Bridge, Mr. Strauss told the
American Association of Port Authori-
ties' meeting at the Fairmont Hotel last
October :
"I take no credit for being the origi-
nator of the project. Mr. M. M.
O'Shaughnessy, then city engineer of
San Francisco, in 1917 invited me to
tackle this problem of bridging the
Golden Gate."
Under the resolution of Congressman
Richard J. Welch, then Supervisor
Welch, the city secured a survey and
soundings and other necessary data,
and in 1919 Mr. Strauss submitted a
design. Edward Rainey, then secretary
to Mayor James Rolph, Jr., was at-
tracted by Mr. Strauss' solution and
undertook to forward the project. He
had Mayor Rolph call a meeting at
Santa Rosa in 1923 of various counties
By SUPERVISOR ARTHUR M. BROWN
to create a bridge district to finance the
project.
The Golden Gate Bridge and High-
way District Act was passed in 1923.
It took six years more to get the bridge
district into operation. Early in 1929
the bridge directors were appointed and
with Mr. Strauss as chief engineer and
A. H. Animann, Leon Moiseiff and
Charles Derleth, Jr., as consulting engi-
neers, a basic design for the bridge was
determined upon.
At the first meeting of the Board of
Engineers, Mr. Strauss proposed in-
stead of a cantilever suspension, first
proposed, the use of a simple suspension
bridge.
"I did not attempt," Mr. Strauss
remarks, "as some people have said to
create the longest bridge in the world.
We located the San Francisco pier about
1000 feet out. That gave us 65 feet of
water. This and the slanting rock bed
made it unwise to go out farther. When
we came to the design of the Alarin pier,
which was located about 200 feet oflf-
shore. I decided to move that pier back
200 feet and put it on the projecting
rock.
That is how the Golden Gate Bridge
came to have the longest single sus-
pension span in the world — longer by
700 feet than the celebrated George
Washington Bridge across the Hudson.
In 1930 a bond election was held on
November 30, at which the electorate
approved a bonded indebtedness of
$35,000,000 by a vote of 145.057 to
46.954.
The district as now organized con-
sists of some 98 per cent of the assessed
valuation of Napa County, and 35 per
cent of Mendocino County plus all tax-
able property in San Francisco, Marin,
Sonoma, and Del Norte counties.
The city and county of San Fran-
cisco is, of course, the most important
member of the district, accounting
for about five-sixths of the assessed
valuation.
The Golden Gate Bridge and High-
way District is governed by a board
of Directors of the respective counties.
Seven members, or half of the total,
are from San Francisco, two each from
Marin and Sonoma, and one from
Napa, Mendocino and Del Norte coun-
ties. The district is an independent
municipal agency, having the right of
eminent domain and the power to make
contracts, incur debts, levy taxes, sue

Francis V. Keesling. M. M. McVay,
W. P. Stanton, George T. Cameron and
Carl Henry also served terms on the
directorate. Alan McDonald was the
first general manager.
James Reed has been general man-
ager of the bridge for the last four
years. George H. Harlan is attorney;
Roy S. West, who succeeded John R.
Ruckstell, deceased, auditor ; and W. W.
Felt, Jr., secretary.
There are so many unique and un-
precedented features in connection with
the construction of the Golden Gate
Bridge as to set it apart as the outstand-
ing engineering achievement of modern
times.
Possibly the most difficult part of the
construction program was encountered
in the south pier, located 1 100 feet ofit"
old Fort Winfield Scott, landmark of
San Francisco's harbor entrance.

THE MUNICIPAL RECORD
At this piiiiit tlu' waU-r laiifjcs in
depth from 65 to 1(X) feet, and a seven-
knot tide is continuously sweeping in
or out of the Gate.
Never in the history of bridge build-
ing had a pier such as that required for
the Golden Gate Bridge been built under
such conditions. Before actual erection
of the pier could commence it was
necessary to level off an area under
water of approximately a full acre.
This was accomplished by blasting and
subsequent dredging of the shattered
rock. After the leveling process it was
necessary to go down into the rock an
average depth of 35 feet to provide a
suitable footing for the pier. This, too,
was a blasting job, special high explo-
sive bombs being literally driven into
the rock and then exploded.
After months of arduous labor, dur-
ing which the contractor, the Pacific
Bridge Company, battled against wind
and wave, the job was completed.
The next step was the erection of a
huge steel and concrete fender approxi-
mately 750 in circumference. This
fender, according to plans of Chief
Engineer Joseph B. Strauss, was to
serve a dual purpose — first, as a coffer-
dam in the quiet waters of which the
erection of the pier proper could be
carried on, and second, to serve as a
permanent protection to the pier after
completion.
It was the first time that such a daring
plan had been put into effect.
Meanwhile the north pier, on the
Marin shore, off Lime Point, had been
completed and the erection of the 746-
foot tower by the Bethlehem Steel Com-
pany was well under way.
Like the tower on the San Francisco
side, this tower is unique, consisting of
cellular steel units, superimposed one
on top of the other. The interior of the
tower thus presents a veritable laby-
rinth of steel cells, hundreds of which
extend from the pier to the tower top
where rest the massive steel and saddle
castings.
Spinning the great supporting cables
for the Golden Gate Bridge was another
spectacular step in the construction
program.
First pilot cables of light braided wire
were dragged across the Golden Gate
from pier to pier. These were raised to
the tower tops, and after a sufficient
number had been swung in place the
"cat walks," or "foot bridges," were
erected, these wire cables being used as
their supports.
Then commenced the long task of
spinning the parallel wire cables. A
mass of complicated spinning ma-
chinery was erected in each anchorage
and a battery of six great spinning
wheels set in motion over each catwalk,
shuttling back and forth and laying the
80,000 miles of wire necessary to com-
plete the cables.
These were the major construction
operations of the bridge.
The total bridge width is 90 feet,
divided into a 60-foot roadway, with
six lanes of vehicular traffic and two
lOj^-foot sidewalks.
If to the main syian of 422 feet we
add the length of the two side spans —
1125 feet each — we have a total length
of 6450 feet, or 1^4 miles for the bridge
proper.
Some idea of the height of the towers
may be gotten when we are reminded
they are 313 feet taller than the Russ
Building on Montgomery Street.
If all the rivets driven in the bridge
were placed head to toe they would form
an enormous serpent thirty-six miles in
length from head to tail tip.
The amount of wire in the cables is
sufficient to erect a standard wire fence
six feet in height on both sides of the
main highway from Canada to the
Mexican border, a distance of 1600
miles.
Concrete required in construction of
the bridge would build two 10-foot side-
walks on either side of the highway
from Omaha to Chicago.
The bridge will be operated on a
toll system. The provisions of the
State Vehicle Code apply to the Golden
Gate Bridge just as they do to the
San Francisco -Oakland Bay Bridge.
Policing and enforcement of the code
will be in the hands of the California
Highway Patrol.
HUNT PROCESS USED
Curing of all roadway slabs is done
by the Hunt process, using the color-
less form, and the membrane is pro-
tected from injury for eight days after
pouring. The consumption of the liquid
on this work is about 200 square feet
per gallon.

Golden Gate Bridge Fiesta
By ERIC CULLENWARD
General Manager, Golden Gate Bridge Fiesta
FOR nearly five years now San
Franciscans have been gazing on
the Golden Gate, watching the dream of
the Argonauts emerge into reality.
Now that mighty Golden Gate Bridge is
about to be dedicated and thrown open
to the traffic of the world.
No one can look upon the completed
structure without being impressed with
its beauty, its majesty and its power.
Supreme in many of its features
among the bridges of the world, its
completion deserves to be celebrated
with all the resources of entertainment,
procession, pageantry and dignity a city
with San Francisco's reputation can
assemble.
As the bridge is big, so must be the
festival glorifying it.
So with Mayor Angelo J. Rossi as
honorary chairman, a Citizens' Com-
mittee was organized, with Supervisor
Arthur M. Brown, Jr., as general chair-
man. Eric Cullenward was named gen-
eral manager and James Adam, pub-
licity director. Headquarters were set
up at 111 Sutter Street.
On the Citizens' Committee were ap-
pointed many persons holding promi-
nent places in municipal affairs. There
was Supervisor Warren Shannon, di-
rector of the Golden Gate Bridge and
Highway District, who was given the
chairmanship of the Police and Fire
Committee. With him on the Execu-
tive Committee are : A. J. Cleary, Chief
Administrative Officer of the munici-
pal government. Leonard Leavy, City
Controller, took charge of grand-stand
tickets. Chief of Police William J.
Quinn was given important assignment,
ERIC CULLENWARD, general man-
ager of Golden Gate Bridge Fiesta to
be held in San Francisco from May 27
to June 2 to celebrate opening of world's
longest single span.
and so were Fire Chief Charles J. Bren-
nan and Sheriflf Daniel C. Murphy.
Clyde Healy, Assistant City Engineer,
supplied the WPA assistance ; and Paul
Ost and Ralph Wiley took positions on
the Lighting Committee; J. Einmet
Hayden, Chairman of Music, with
Supervisor Alfred Roncovieri serving
with him ; W. D. Hadeler, Director of
the Golden Gate Bridge and Highway
District, gave attention to invitations
and reception along with Hugo D. New-
house, also a bridge director, and Con-
gressman Richard J. Welch. Judge
Thomas M. Foley organized a speakers'
bureau. Judge Charles R. Boden lent
a helping hand, and so did District
Attorney Mathew Brady and Public
Defender Gerald Kenny. C. Harold
Caulfield, President of the Board of
Education, looked after the participa-
tion of schools. Harold Boyd was given
the important assignment of Civic Par-
ticipation. Captain Charles GofF headed
the Traffic Committee and Dr. J. C.
Geiger headed the Health Committee.
William P. Filmer, President of the
Golden Gate Bridge and Highway Dis-
trict, was appointed chairman of the
Invitations and Reception Committee.
Working with this general and ex-
ecutive committee of infinite resource
and untiring energy, Supervisor Brown
set to work to develop a Fiesta program
the like of which San Francisco had
never seen.
It was clearly .seen from the begin-
ning that the Fiesta sbiuld be no mere
local and shortlived period of rejoicing.
The Golden Gate Bridge breaks the last
major water barrier for an all-wheel
coast highway from Canada to Mexico.
From this fact grew the international
character of the celebration.
Representatives were sent to seek the
cooperation of Canada and the north-
western states in the Fiesta. Another
went into Mexico to tell the chiefs of
the Latin Republic all about the bridge
and the celebration. Through the inter-
mountain' states went another repre-

sentative to brinjj; the Rocky Mountain
people into the picture. The Redwood
Empire Association joined in the build-
up. Men went to the .southern cities of
the State and awakened interest and
promise of participation.
Supervisor Brown, him.self, went to
Washington to invite President Roose-
velt to come. He found the President
attentive and interested, but with Con-
gress in session the Chief Executive
said he would be unable to leave the
White House.
Still bent on making the most of his
visit to the Capital. Mr. Brown visited
the Naval Department and there won
signal success. Before he left Wash-
ington he had the promise that the Fleet
would come to the Fiesta — all the ships
practically, with 40,000 to 50,000 men,
and that they would come direct from
maneuvers in the Pacific and stay for
the duration of the Fiesta.
On his return journey, Supervisor
Brown visited the eleven western states,
everywhere telling the story of the
mighty bridge and what San Francisco
was doing to celebrate its completion.
As with the Navy, so with the Army.
Many of the Fiesta's activities are cen-
tered in Crissy Field in the Presidio
and from the very beginning the Fiesta
Committee was made happy by the
whole-hearted cooperation of the mili-
tary authorities.
To round out the international tie and
to merge all the western states and
Canada and Mexico in picturesque
unity, the idea of organizing a spectacu-
lar cavalcade was conceived, each unit
moving in colorful array from its point
of origin and joining at the bridgehead
on the day of dedication of the bridge.
No more spectacular massing of pro-
cessional units has ever been dreamed
of in the West.
The cavalcades will arrive in San
Francisco on May 27 and go over to
Waldo Point on the Marin side, to head
the imposing host of citizens who will
open the bridge to traffic on May 28.
They will find on their arrival in the
Fiesta city, streets gay with banners of
blue and gold, trolley poles wrapped in
redwood bark and topped with ever-
green boughs.
Wandering minstrels will make every
corner a vaudeville stage. The whole
city will be vibrant with the atmosphere
of festivity. The nights will be bril-
liantly illuminated. Revelry will be
enthroned.
With a program so infinite in its
scope, it would be an impossible task
to set everything down in detail. But
here are the highlights of the Fiesta
program :
There will be a pre-Fiesta program,
starting Tuesday, May 25, with a Radio
Star Show in the Civic Auditorium at
8 p. ni. On Wednesday, May 26, there
will be a city-wide luncheon under the
auspices of the San Francisco Advertis-
ing Club at the Palace Hotel. The
queen of the Fiesta will be crowned that
night at a ball in the Civic Auditorium.
Pedestrian Day will be Thursday,
May 27, when no vehicular traffic will
be allowed on the bridge, but anyone
who will can walk across the bridge or
any part of it.
That night the first performance of
the pageant will be presented in the
huge amphitheater in Crissy Field.
Jolin Charles Thomas, the celebrated
baritone, will sing the lead. A cast of
three thousand actors will take part
and a symphony orchestra of one hun-
dred musicians. Seating accommoda-
tions will take care of twenty-five thou-
sand persons.
The formal dedication of the bridge
will take place Friday, May 28, with the
cavalcades leading the way. There will
be a dignitaries' luncheon at noon, and
in the afternoon ground-breaking cere-
monies of the Western States Building
on the Exposition site.
There will be a round of sports,
fashion shows, luncheons, and recep-
tions going on all through the Fiesta
period, with fireworks and illumination
of the fleet by night.
Labor is not forgotten in the Fiesta
program. On Saturday night, after the
illuminated parade, a bridge builders'
ball will be held in the Civic Auditorium.
Underwritten by the Exposition di-
rectorate and the Fiesta Citizens' Com-
mittee and sponsored by the San Fran-
cisco Building Trades Council and the
San Francisco Labor Council, the labor
ball is presented with a view to raising
a fund for the families whose sons or
husbands' lost their lives building the
bridge.
Then, again on Memorial Day. Sun-
day, May 30. the bridge builders will
be remembered in a ceremony of simple,
religious character at the center of the
bridge. School children from all the
schools — public, parochial, and pri-
vate— will drop garlands into the bay.
One of the interesting special events
of the Fiesta will be a hard-rock drill-
ing contest in Crissy Field, participated
in by mining teams from all the western
states. Such a contest has not been seen
in San Francisco since the Midwinter
Fair of 1894.
There will also be a log-sawing con-
test at the Waldo Point end of the
bridge on the day of dedication.
Four parades will add splendor to
the Fiesta— May 27, 28, 29, and 31.
The route will be along Van Ness Ave-
nue from Union Street through the
Marina to Crissey Field.
There will be a Children's Spring
Festival on June 1, and at four o'clock
Buy from firms that advertise with us
that afternoon presentation of a plaque
of General Hunter Liggett to the city
of San Francisco by the Army and
Navy Club, the ceremony taking place
in the City Hall.
A formal military and naval ball at
the Fairmont Hotel, June 2, will close
the Fiesta.
These are some of the program high-
lights. But they cannot convey the
whole life and spirit of the celebration,
the gaiety of spontaneous rejoicing, the
infinite occasions for merrymaking.
The ambition of the Citizens' Com-
mittee is to present such a weekful of
revelry and ceremony as the West has
never seen. To the Fiesta it invites all
the world to come to see the two mighty
bridges, to rejoice and be glad. San
Francisco invites you. May 27 to June 2.

Enlargement of O'Shaughnessy Dam
AFTER a lull in activity, due to heavy
. snow work, the work of enlarging
O'Shaiighnessy Dam is going ahead
rapidly. This work, under contract to
Transbay Construction Company for
$3,219,965, began in May, 1935, with
the expectation of completion by May,
1937.
When the work is completed late this
fall, O'Shaughnessy Dam will be the
third highest dam in the world, being
exceeded only by the monumental Boul-
der Dam and the Chambon Dam in
France. Hetch Hetchy reservoir, which
now has a capacity of 67 billion gallons
(more than all of the San Francisco
Water Department reservoirs com-
bined) will then hold 117 billion gallons
or as much water as San Francisco uses
in six years.
The work consists of thickening the
back of the dam by about 80 feet and
increasing the height by 85 feet. At the
present time the thickening has been
completed from the base up to the crest
of the present dam, and concrete is
being placed in the sections to be
heightened. A new spillway is being
constructed and the reservoir area to be
flooded by the increased height of water
has been cleared of trees and brush.
The road leading to Lake Eleanor has
been realigned and a vehicular tunnel
about 600 feet long has been driven
through the granite of the north abut-
ment.
Due to the time required to cool the
new concrete by artificial refrigeration,
the placing of concrete cannot be carried
on with the speed which is usual in
straightaway work.
The work has been seriously delayed
by two factors : ( 1 ) To secure abso-
lutely perfect foundation it was neces-
sary to remove much more of the
granite bedrock than had been origi-
nally anticipated. (Z) An exception-
ally heavy winter, with three feet of
snow on Christmas, followed by almost
daily snowfall and subzero temperature,
made progress impossible for two
months.
At present the contractor is employ-
ing 350 men, while the city has a con-
struction engineer, five surveyors, seven
inspectors, and one clerk, a total of
fourteen men. Work is carried on both
day and night.
The construction force is housed in
a small village of temporary frame
structures. There are two large dormi-
tories, thirteen new cottages, hospital,
dining room and cookhouse, various
warehouses and miscellaneous cabins.
The village boasts water supply, light-

Office Enyineer, Public Utilities Commission

ing, telephone and sewer systems, and
an organized fire department.
For hauling supplies and equipment
the City's Hetch Hetchy railroad is
operated by the Sierra Railway of Cali-
fornia, hauling fifty-nine miles to
Mather, where the freight is loaded
onto trucks for the remaining nine miles
to Hetch Hetchy.
Visitors are not allowed directly on
the work, but from 11 a. m. to 2 p. m.
the construction may be viewed from
a parking area near the south end of the
dam.
The materials for concrete are gath-
ered in rather a spectacular manner.
The cement unloaded from the railroad
cars into a steel silo is transported from
Mather to Hetch Hetchy in immense
hopper trucks with capacity of fifteen
tons and gross weight of twenty-seven
tons. The rock for concrete is quarried
from an obscure granite mountainside,
crushed and recrushed and carried by
an intricate system of belt conveyors to
four stock piles containing graded sizes
of rock.
Sand for concrete is excavated from
a pit at Miguel Meadows, on the road
to Lake Eleanor, from which it is trans-
ported to the aggregate plant, a distance
of more than three miles, by an aerial
tramway, automatic in operation as the
loaded buckets descending from a high
elevation carry the empty buckets on
the return trip. A unique feature of the
tramway is an immense fan which oper-
ates as a break to prevent the buckets
traveling too fast.
The mixed concrete is transported to
the proper point and dumped from an
eight-cubic-yard bucket by a cableway,
of which the main lead is a three-inch

diameter steel cable suspended across
the site of the work. By means of two
parallel cables, the bucket may be swuiijj
laterally through a range of about 270
feet.
All of the concrete is artiikially
cooled by use of a refrigerating plant,
the col(I water from which jjasses
through pipes set before the concrete
is placed. All old concrete is thoroughly
roughened and cleaned before new con-
crete is deposited against it, and the
bond is made complete by forcing in
cement grout under high pressure. An
added feature is the setting of more
than 5000 steel bars, 1 y^ inches square,
which anchor the new concrete to the
old.
The construction is in immediate
charge of John H. Ryan, construction
engineer, while L. T. McAfee, Utili-
ties Engineer, is in general charge of
both construction and design. It is an
activity of the Public Utilities Com-

THERE MUST BE
SOME REASON..
why Borden's Golden State, Carnation and other
great dairy product concerns have built their largest
plants in Los Bancs and vicinity, on the West Side
of the San Joaquin Valley.
There is a reason! This is California's richest,
most productive dairying country . . . part of the
original great Miller & Lux holdings.
Fertile farm lands, especially suitable for dairying
but suited also to general farming, are available at
lov/ 1930 prices . . . promising an unusually high
profit yield, in view of rising prices for dairy products.

Ask Western Union.They Know!
People in every toqjjn and city ask Western Union to help them
solve all sorts of personal problems. These services are performed
in small towns by managers, messengers and other staff members, but
the volume of such requests is so great in large cities that Personal
Service Bureaus are established. On the desk of the Personal Service
Bureau shoiun above, four telephones and tiiio telegraph experts are
constantly in action.
IN just thirty-two minutes Western
Union's Personal Service Bureau in
a large city located a patron's briefcase
which had been lost in a metropolis fifty
miles away. The patron told Western
Union where he had been just prior to
losing the case, and mentioned that he
had lunched in a restaurant which he
believed was famous for its sea food.
A telegram and a quick check-up by
Western Union people in the distant
city located the briefcase in approxi-
mately half an hour.
Today the name "Western Union"
means to everyone the performance of
numerous modern-day services. The
public has been taught to call Western
Union whenever difficult problems arise,
whether business or personal. Every
telegraph office has become a clearing-
house of human problems and is ac-
customed to furnishing an up-to-the-
minute personalized service to patrons.
There are so many interesting illus-
trations of personal services performed
by Western Union that even recent
cases would fill a volume. There was
an order the other day to have a con-
gratulatory telegram, together with a
bottle of champagne, delivered on ship-
board to a couple leaving for a Euro-
pean honeymoon. A hotel having a spe-
cial nursery and playground for chil-
dren was found for a family planning
a trip to New York. A patron in Lon-
don had Western Union buv an auto-
mobile and ship it on the next boat.
A traveling man who had promised
his wife an electrical refrigerator for a
birthday present had his promise kept
in a distant city by Western Union.
Important telegrams are delivered even
to people on the highways by giving
license numbers and other information
to filling stations and posting mes-
sengers at strategic points. Not long
since, an order came in to get four hun-
dred dolls of a certain kind and ship
them at once. The dolls were to be
souvenirs at a convention.
And now the man "with a string
around his finger" is becoming a thing
of the past. A new Western Union
service is doing his remembering for
him. He can leave a list of names of
his friends, relatives, and business as-
sociates and their birthday and other
anniversary dates in any Western
Union office. On the day before each
of these, and on indicated holidays as
well, Western LTnion will remind him
to send appropriate greetings by tele-
graph. This is known as the "Social
Reminder Service," amounting to a
remote-control memory.
Indeed, a revolutionary change has
taken place since the days when people
thought only of urgent news when they
saw a Western Union telegram. Day
by day, in every way, every Western
Union office tries to live up to its slogan,
"Do everything to oblige the public."

MILK of MAGNESIA
with the lemon flavor
Out new and exclusive process of
extracting pure magnesia from
the sea gives MARINE its smooth,
creamy milk. A dash of lemon,
and presto! — the perfect antacid
Milk of Magnesia! There's no
other like MARINE. Once you
try it, you'll know what we mean,
and nothing else will ever do.

Another Ruth's Health Food
Store Now Open in Civic
Center Location
In order to accommodate the many
patrons and friends situated in the
Civic Center district, a new store was
opened recently at 1126 Market Street.
The Health Cocktail Bar serves fresh
pressed vegetable and fruit juices, made
on the premises only.
Installation of the latest model ice
cream equipment has been completed.
Soy Bean Milk and other Soy prod-
ucts are being substituted for animal
butter fat. White sugar is replaced
with pure raw honey. No salt of any
kind is used, neither is artificial color-
ing matter, preservatives or gums. The
unusual feature of this new product is
that one may eat it without fear of bad
after effects. It is also non-fattening.
A strictly vegetarian cafeteria is con-
ducted in connection with the store. It
is interesting to note that foods are
steamed in special cookers requiring
little or no water. White sugar, white
salt, white flour products, artificial col-
oring matter, preservatives or alumi-
num ware are not used in the prepara-
tion of foods in this most sanitary
kitchen.
Everyone is invited to visit this store
and cafeteria.

A Prediction Comes True
IN the year 1915, James Wilkins,
an old-time newspaperman then liv-
ing at San Rafael, strolled into the
office of the old San Francisco Bul-
letin, which was then located on Market
Street, directly across from the Phelan
Building, and he laid on the news edi-
tor's desk a 2000-word article. That
was the year, you will remember, when
San Francisco was holding its great
Panama-Pacific International Exposi-
tion and many nations of the world
were at war. San Francisco, ignoring
the war, was attempting to prove to
the world that it was the "city that
knows how." From the ruins of the
catastrophe of April, 1906, it had re-
built and it was proud of the accom-
plishment.
The article that Jim Wilkins oflFered
The Bulletin proposed that a bridge be
built across the Golden Gate, connect-
ing San Francisco and Marin counties.
I was the news editor of The Bulletin
at the time, and I thought that Jim's
idea was just a wild dream. But the
story was extremely well written. It
was interesting. It had the full merit of
being entertaining. So it was published.
For the next few weeks Jim Wil-
kins was kept busy answering his critics.
By FRED GOODCELL
(Reprinted by Request)
FRED C. GOODCELL
These critics said the building of such
a bridge was an engineering impossi-
bility. Jim replied that construction of
the bridge would require great engi-
neering skill, but he maintained it could
be built. Other critics say the Army
Department and the Navy Department
would never consent to the spanning
of the Golden Gate. Jim replied there
was no reason why they should not give
their consent. Still other critics said
the bridge could never be made to pay,
that it could not transport steamtrains,
and those who could afford automobiles
were so few that the revenue would be
extremely meager. In those days, as a
matter of fact, there were not many
automobiles and there were few paved
roads, but Jim made the prediction that
the use of automobiles would rapidly
increase and the bridge would prove a
paying investment.
Twenty-two years have passed since
then. The project of building a bridge
across the Gate has attained the ma-
turity of voting age. The old Bulletin
has been absorbed by another publi-
cation and passed to new owners. Jim
Wilkins has answered the call of the
Great Master. But I do give Jim Wil-
kins credit for this. Twenty-one years
ago he pounded a rivet into public con-
science as to the possibility of spanning
the Golden Gate with steel and con-
crete, and today the joli is nearly com-
plete. Soon, very soon, you and I and
millions of others will be riding across
the Golden Gate Bridge, and perhaps
from somewhere up above, the old
newspaperman, Jim Wilkins, will look
down upon it and say, "My dream has
come true."
Before the coming year is many
months old the Golden Gate Bridge

THE MUNICIPAL RECORD
will be completed and handling traffic.
More than a thousand workers are now
busy on the job, constructinj^ the hridj^e
and its approaches. Many milHons of
dollars have been expended. The work
has f^one ahead smoothly and on sched-
ule, delayed once by a bit of defective
material, but the delay has been over-
come, and when the job has been
finished San Francisco and all of the
northern section of California will have
another justifiable reason to celebrate.
Without detracting from the beauties
of any other section of California it
can be said that the Golden Gate Bridge
will give San Francisco and its neigh-
bors in San Mateo County their first
uninterrupted connection with the most
beautiful part of California — the great
Redwood Empire. Heretofore we have
relied upon the ferries, but the ferries
have reached their saturation point as
traffic carriers. On Sundays and holi-
days there has been constant congestion
of traffic, particularly from the Marin
County shore where nature has per-
mitted only one road of ingress or
egress. The bridge, with its six avenues
of traffic, will overcome this congestion.
To travel to and fro will be as simple
as to journey along a main highway;
in fact, it will be more simple because
for the entire distance spanned by the
bridge and its approaches of more than
three miles there will be no intersecting
highways.
There are some who have argued
that with the completion of the bridge
many families will move from San
Francisco and seek homes in the tree-
studded areas of Marin County and
perhaps farther north into Sonoma and
Napa counties. Perhaps this will be
true. Our neighboring counties across
the stream have many magnificent home
sites to offer. But any slight shift that
comes will not be an economic loss.
San Francisco and the Redwood Em-
pire are natural C()mi)lements. San
Francisco is a great industrial center.
It will be so always. The counties to
the north — • Marin, Napa, Sonoma,
Lake, Mendocino, Humboldt, Trinity —
are not industrial ; they have a wealth
of agriculture and timber; they are
bountiful in their natural beauty; they
are abundant in their recreational offer-
ings— and they are just what San Fran-
cisco should most enthusiastically wel-
come as close and congenial neighbors.
Maybe some San Francisco residents
will move across the Bay and establish
new homes. But, on the other hand,
many of those who now reside in what
we fondly call the Redwood Empire
will find it more convenient, when the
bridge is completed, to drive to San
Francisco and partake of the bargains
and enjoyments this city has to offer.
They will bring to this good old town a
surge of new buying power. They will
increase our trade so that the demand
for homes and apartments within our
city limits will be greater than ever be-
fore. In return, thousands of us will
find it convenient to spend a day or a
week-end among the redwoods across
the Bay ; or along the inviting streams ;
or in the midst of the fields and orchards
that produce so bountifully.
It is a truism that a good highway
never injured any community. The
Golden Gate Bridge will constitute a
glorious link in a highway that will
connect the most beautiful part of Cali-
fornia with the most centralized indus-
trial city on the Pacific Coast. The
combination is ideal. It will redound to
the comfort and prosperity of many
thousands of people.

GROTTO
• The Cocktail Lounge with its unusual fea-
tures is a treat to the eye. The Grille Room
is just as inviting with its ship murals of
unique ideas featuring a famous yacht
race on our San Francisco Bay. Also, of
unusual design is the Rock Pool with its dis-
play of numerous lighting effects.
• The ship deck passage leading to the
famous cocktail lounge reminds one of a
familiar ship deck aboard a palatial liner.
• As for rare sea-foods, broiled steaks and
chicken, Joe DiMaggio's Grotto is des-
tined to become world famous.

Rapid Transit a San Francisco Necessity
By GEORGE CREEL
Chairman, Citizens Rapid Transit Committee
United States Commissioner, Golden Gate International Exposition
AS far back as 1927 there was rec-
. ognition of San Francisco's need
for a more adequate transportation sys-
tem, but only today, after ten years of
surveys, studies and reports, is action
in sight.
If the need for rapid transit was ap-
parent in 1927, it is a thousand times
more obvious now. Who denies it has
never been on Market Street. Subway
trains at a five-cent fare and free trans-
fers, connecting with fast surface Hues
and fourteen feeder bus routes, have
been agreed upon by famous engineers
as the only answer to our traffic prob-
lems.
Even now it is possible to travel be-
tween San Francisco's business centers
and Peninsula or Eastbay communities
in half the time it takes to reach any of
our outlying residential districts. Think
what the difference will be when trains
are operated over the bridge.
When $110,000,000 have been spent
on bridges for the provision of rapid
transit out of San Francisco, surely
common sense would seem to dictate
the expenditure of $49,250,000 to keep
people in San Francisco. If our in-
ternal transportation keeps on at a
snail's pace, our population will di-
minish, with a resultant drop in prop-
erty values and tax returns. Climate
and proud traditions will not long hold
people when every street car ride is a
wrestling match with no holds barred.
Voices of confusion have advocated
elevated railroads, a clamor even more
stupid than the campaign for busses,
which carry only half as many passen-
gers as the surface cars.
It is also urged that San Francisco's
population is too small for subways.
The answer is that the unusual layout
of our streets, many cutting into Mar-
ket .Street at sharp angles, the hills and
the location of the business district,

City Officials Unanimous —
Say Health Bonds Must Pass
By J. C. GEIGER, M. D.
The Department of Public Health,
with the approval of the Chief Admin-
istrative Officer, the Mayor and the en-
tire Board of Supervisors, along with
the support of a great many organiza-
tions, has placed on the ballot to be
voted November 2, 1937, a bond issue
for $1,600,000. It is hoped by the De-
partment of Public Health that this
bond issue will carry for the following
reasons :
1. Hassler Health Home: The prob-
lem of tuberculosis is still considerable
in the City and County of San Fran-
cisco. As such, scientific advice has
been given this Department to increase
its facilities, particularly for the
chronic tuberculous at the Hassler
Health Home. The survey of the Elkus
Committee of the Community Chest
also pointed out the lack of facilities
for the pre-tuberculous and malnour-
ished child and for convalescent care
of cases in the San F~rancisco Hospital.
Therefore, it has been suggested that at
least $400,000 be expended for new
buildings and equipment, and for fur-
ther development of the remarkable fa-
cilities for tuberculosis at the Hassler
Health Home.
2. The Laguna Honda Home: The
J. C. GEIGER, M. D.
Director of Public Health
Laguna Honda Home is rapidly be-
coming an infirmary for the middle-
aged and the aged. The ambulatory
type of patient previously cared for is
being placed on pension. Again expert
advice has indicated that the construc-
tion of a modern hospital for the aged
and the remodeling of other wards now
used for ambulatory patients will in-
crease the facilities for the care of the
indigent and aged ill. Therefore, the
amount suggested to be expended un-
der these conditions at the Laguna
Honda Home is $1,000,000 for new
buildings and equipment.
3. The San Francisco Hospital: The
modernization of the San Francisco
Hospital is essential and necessary, es-
pecially its X-ray facilities and many
other features. Therefore, the estimate
for this modernization has been placed
at $200,000.
Many suggestions have been made
for carrying out a campaign for these
bonds, among these being the raising
of funds, particularly from friends of
the Department and those with whom
we come in contact in the regular rou-
tine of business. The Department of
Public Health, however, has felt and

Airport Development Essential to San Francisco
By B. M. DOOLIN
i AN FRANCISCO'S municipal air-
port will be developed and ex-
panded immediately into the finest
seaplane and landplane air terminal in
the United States or it will become ob-
solete and useless.
Its fate will be decided at the Novem-
ber 2 election when San Francisco votes
upon a $2,850,000 airport development
bond issue. Proposition 2 on the ballot.
Mayor Angelo J. Rossi states the air-
port development and enlargement to be
financed by this bond issue "is a civic
enterprise of the utmost importance to
the commercial progress of San Fran-
cisco," and adds :
"It is San Francisco's duty to carry
out the plans for airport development to
preserve for the city its present and fu-
ture air commerce."
With that view every newspaper and
civic organization in San Francisco is in
agreement.
The $2,850,000 airport bond issue
will provide $1,400,000 for construction
of a great seaplane port ; $1,300,000 for
reconstruction and improvement of the
landplane port ; $100,000 for radio land-
ing and modern navigational equipment,
and $50,000 for land purchases. Each
of these developments is imperatively
necessary if San Francisco is to retain
its present position as the focal point
and center of aviation on the Pacific
Coast.
Failure to pass the bond issue will
have, it is believed, most dire conse-
quences for San Francisco, not only
commercially but in civic pride and
prestige.
Primarily failure would mean the
city would have no seaplane port. This
would mean inevitably that it would lose
the greatest commercial airline in exist-
ence. Pan American Airways, and the
giant transpacific air liners it now op-
erates.
A year ago Pan American Airways
signed a lease agreement with the City
of San Francisco stipulating that the
company would establish its operating
base and United States headquarters at
San Francisco airport providing the
city would construct a suitable seaplane
harbor and terminal facilities for its
transpacific Clipper planes. Pan Ameri-
can Airways is now based at Alameda,
its contract with San Francisco has ex-
pired and soon it must seek another
operating base. Unless work on the
seaplane harbor at San Francisco air-
port is guaranteed by passage of the
bonds. Pan American Airways very
BERNARD MICHAEL DOOLIN
Manager, San Francisco Airport
probably will move to Terminal Island,
Los Angeles.
Failure of the airport bond issue
would mean also the loss to San Fran-
cisco of a great deal of the increasing
air commerce, coastwise and transconti-
nental, now centering in San Francisco,
over four Civil Airways from New
York, San Diego and Seattle.
Along with the phenomenal develop-
ment of air commerce the size and speed
and weight of air transports is growing
prodigiously. The huge overland air
transjinrts now in operation and build-
ing are rendering most of the municipal
airports in the United States obsolete.
This applies to San Francisco airport as
it is at present. Its landing area is too
small and its runways too short and not
solid enough for modern airplanes.
Transcontinental Western Airways,
which resumed operations at San Fran-
cisco airport a few weeks ago, will put
in operation within a year new four-
motored Boeing planes too large for the
runway and other facilities of the mu-
nicipal airport. These planes require
runways at least 6,000 feet long. San
Francisco's runways at present are
3.000 feet long, inadequate for the land-
ing and starting of enormous modern
planes. Unless lengthened that means
much of the air commerce carried by
TWA and United Air Lines to San
Francisco will go elsewhere.
These and many other arguments in
favor of the pending bond issue are
made by the Public Utilities Commis-
sion, which operates the airport, by offi-
cials of every air line concerned, by the
San Francisco Chamber of Commerce,
the San Francisco Labor Council, the
Building Trades Council, the Civic
League of Improvement Clubs and half
a hundred civic organizations and asso-
ciations.
They can be summed up in a sen-
tence : Unless San Francisco goes ahead
with the development of its municipal
airport it will lose the best of its present
invaluable air commerce and relinquish
the place it has acquired in the avia-
tion sun.

New Samuel Gompers Trades School To Be Dedicated
SAN FRANCISCO'S new Samuel
Gompers Trades School at Twenty-
second and Bartlett streets will be dedi-
cated at an open house to be held on
Wednesday evening, November 10, ac-
cording to announcement made by
Joseph P. Nourse, superintendent of
public schools. A cordial invitation is
extended to all officials and employees
of the municipal and state governments
to attend this ceremony which will be
included in the annual observance of
American Education Week, which be-
gins on Sunday, November 7.
The new $250,000 structure of rein-
forced concrete was projected by the
San Francisco Board of Education as a
first instructional unit to initiate and
supplement instruction in a limited field
of crafts with the aid and counsel of
journeyman leaders.
The Board of Education was in
unanimous agreement with the sugges-
tion of Hon. Charles A. Derry, commis-
sioner of education, that the new school
should bear the name of the late Samuel
Gompers, famous American labor
leader and for many years president of
the American Federation of Labor.
Organization of the new Trades
School was perfected in August when
the Board of Education unanimously
accepted the recommendation of Super-
intendent Joseph P. Nourse to name
Edgar A. Anderson principal. It will
operate from 1 to 5 p. m. daily and from
7 to 9 o'clock each evening, Monday
through Friday.
Mr. Anderson will continue as princi-
pal of the Humboldt Evening High
School at Eighteenth and Dolores
streets in the same neighborhood. Mr.
Anderson entered the school department
as a teacher at Mission High School in
1923. He is a graduate of Augustana
College, Rock Island, Illinois, and also
attended the L^niversity of Wyoming
and the L^niversity of California. He
has been actively identified with devel-
opment of adult and trade education.
Alfred E. Roberts was named super-
visor and assigned to the Samuel Gom-
pers Trades School, succeeding from
his former position as head of the tech-
nical department of the Humboldt Eve-
ning High School, which position he
held for more than thirty years.
As field coordinator of apprentice
training, a new position at $4,250 annu-
ally, Superintendent Nourse named
Robert J. Stoft'er, vice-principal in the
Horace Mann Junior High School. Mr.
Stofifer learned and worked at a trade as
a sheet metal worker and is well known
in labor circles. He entered the school
department in 1925 as a teacher at Pre-
JOSEPH P. NOURSE
Superintendent of Schools
sidio Junior High School and later at
the High School of Commerce. He was
made vice-principal of Horace Mann
last year. He is a graduate of San Fran-
cisco State College and is working to-
wards a Master's Degree at Stanford
University. Half of Mr. Stoflfer's sal-
ary will be paid by the state and federal
governments under the provisions of the
Smith Hughes Act.
Requirements for admission are as
follows : f 1 ) Any boy graduated from
a senior high school. (2) Any boy over
eighteen 3'ears of age. (3) Boys attend-
ing high school in the eleventh or
twelfth grades or boys in the Continua-
tion School, who receive the recommen-
dation of their respective principals and
the Director of Industrial Arts. The
principals concerned may excuse boys
from 1 to 5 p. m., or 1 to 3 p. m. or 3 to 5
p. m., one to five days per week, to at-
tend Samuel Gompers Trades School.
Credit toward high school graduation
may be granted to these boys. Attend-
ance will be credited for the above men-
tioned boys to the schools in which they
are regularly' enrolled.
The subject oflferings will be as fol-
lows : Power station, painting and deco-
rating, metallurgy, steam turbine, draft-
ing and machine mechanics, electricity,
welding, diesel, drafting and architec-
ture, mathematics, steel construction
and drafting, architectural drawing,
telephone operation, radio, electrical

VOTE FOR THE BONDS
navigation, apprentice sheet metal, ap-
prentice painting, steel square, fuels
and lubricants, tool and die making.
The school is to be opened for both
day and evening instruction. During
morning hours the school will be occu-
pied by students of the San Francisco
Junior College for the instruction of
pupils enrolled in the engineering
courses. The afternoon session from 1
until 5 o'clock is to be divided into two
sections ; from 1 to 3 and from 3 to 5
o'clock. High school pupils who are to
receive their academic training during
the morning hours may attend the Gom-
pers School in the afternoon. Boys and
girls not attending regular high schools
may attend the afternoon session, pro-
vided they have had sufficient basic
training to enable them to profit by the
tvpe of instruction given in the trades
school. High school graduates and
adults, who are in need of trade train-
ing to enable them to qualify for a posi-
tion in industry, will also be accepted as
students. Apprentices who are engaged
in a given trade and who are permitted
to leave their work and attend the school
under the apprentice training agree-
ment, will also be accepted for training
in the school.
The evening session is to operate
from 7 until 9 o'clock and is to be used
for both apprentice training classes and
trade extension classes. The apprentice
training classes are conducted in con-
junction with the apprentice training
plan for organized trades. Young men
between the ages of sixteen and twenty-
five years, who are now working at a
given trade, such as painting, decorat-
ing, paper hanging, plumbing and sheet
metal and whose organized employers'
and organized employees' groups have,
through their advisory committee, set
up an apprentice training agreement
under the California Apprentice Train-
ing Plan, are to be trained in the eve-
ning school.
The trade extension work is used to
supplement the training of adults who
are actively engaged in a skilled trade
during the day time and who wish to im-
prove themselves in the evening. Re-
lated technical instruction will be given
as well as the teaching of skills.
Instruction is to be given in the fol-
lowing trades both afternoon and eve-
ning : Electric welding, acetylene weld-
ing, aviation, navigation, diesel engines,
tool and die work, body and fender
work, industrial electricity, both theory
and applied, radio upkeep and repair,
mechanical drafting, architectural draft-
ing, applied mathematics, art metal and

jewelry work, leveling and surveying,
labor economics and social problems.
The Samuel Gompers building is de-
signed in the modernistic type of archi-
tecture. Through economy of aisle
space, the floor area for classrooms is
exceedingly large in comparison with
standard school construction. The build-
ing is of the modern factory type ; the
floor plan is laid out similar to the letter
"T," the stem of the letter housing two
identical classrooms on the first and sec-
ond floors and one large laboratory on
the third and fourth floors. The bar of
the "T" is divided into laboratories. On
the first floor a Diesel engine laboratory
operates with representative type of en-
gines together with the necessary appa-
ratus for determining the efficiency of
tiiese motors and analyzing any faults
in their operation.
The tool and die shop is equipped sec-
ond to none in San Francisco. Here the
students have access to the most modern
precision tools and measuring appa-
ratus. In conjunction with the tool and
die shop is a heat treating laboratory
where there have been installed elec-
trical furnaces with atmosphere control,
furnaces for drawing the steel after it
has been hardened, and electric furnaces
designed for operating at exceedingly
high temperatures for the treating of
high speed steel. Accurate laboratory
instruments to determine the character-
istics and qualities of the steel after it
has been heat-treated are part of the
modern equipment.
On the ground floor is located a room
designed for the instruction in electrical
welding. There are ten motor-generator
sets of 250-ampere capacity, one 350-
ampere direct current arc welder, and
two 100-ampere alternating current arc
welding machines. The acetylene weld-
ing room is well equipped with the most
modern type of manifold distribution of
the oxygen-acetylene gases together
with the proper regulators and welding
and cutting torches. Various types of
laboratory apparatus are also available
for the inspection and testing of the
electric and acetylene welds after the
students have performed their work.
The American Society for Metal
Testing also conducts a laboratory in
conjunction with the trades school for
the most scientific investigation of
metals for use in industry. This labora-
tory is equipped with gas and electric
furnaces for the heat treating of steel
and the various polishing and grinding
operations for preparing the specimen
for microscopic examination. There are
also various machines for the testing of
the metal under stress and strain.
On the second floor of the school is
located the plumbing and sanitary lab-
oratory. Here the plumbing apprentice
and future sanitary engineer is to re-
ceive his training in the most modern
apparatus which has been developed for
this field.
The steam fitter apprentice also re-
ceives instruction in this building. Few
people outside those engaged in allied
crafts realize the scope in which the
steam fitter operates. He is concerned
with heating and ventilating, the new
field of air conditioning, and refrigera-
tion as applied to both industry and
marine work.
The painting, decorating, and paper
hanging instruction room is also located
on the second floor and in this room in-
struction is given in the artistic side as
well as the practical side of these fields.
Aviation instruction is given as a re-
lated technical and ground course with
a hope that this training may within the
near future be tied in with practical
flying with the Municipal Airport.
Provision has been made for sheet
metal and body and fender work in a
large room on the second floor and also
in the yard where the automobiles can
easily be worked upon.
The entire third floor of the building
is devoted to industrial electricity and
radio. Both theoretical and applied elec-
tricity are to be taught. The fourth floor

THE MUNICIPAL RECORD
Speed Up San Francisco Traffic Say Experts
By L. M. PERRIN
Electrical Engineer, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission
SAFETY, as well as speed and con-
venience of people in motion
through congested districts, was a
prime factor in plans for San Fran-
cisco's proposed rapid transit system.
Safety should he a prime considera-
tion, too, in influencing votes for the
proposal at the November election.
Removal of two outside lines of
street cars from the surface of Market
Street into the subway alone should
effect a material reduction in the num-
ber of accidents in that area. A large
percentage of all pedestrian traffic will
enter the subway stations from the
sidewalks or from basement exits of
stores or office buildings along the
route. It is believed that these subway
station mezzanine underpasses will be
an impressive factor in public safety.
The subway stations will be 450 feet
long and so constructed that the plat-
forms later may be extended to 600
feet, the present New York maximum.
The .stations will be convenient and
sightly. I'light sidewalk entrances to
each will lead to mezzanine floors above
the loading platforms.
Persons wishing to cross Market or
Montgomerv streets need no longer
fight their way through surface traffic
or wait for green lights when the sub-
ways are finished. They may descend
to the subway mezzanines from the
sidewalks and cross the street in safety.
A startling commentary on the
safety of subways and surface cars is
found in a comparison of operating ex-
penses charged to injuries and dam-
ages. Figures of the New York Inter-
borough Rapid Transit subway show .7
of a cent per car mile, as against the San
I'rancisco Municipal Railway's record
of 1.1 cents per car mile so charged,
for a comparable year of operation.
The routes proposed for the sub-
ways, pronounced the only cure for San
Francisco's traffic ills bv competent ex-
perts, follow its most congested down-
town streets. Subwavs will run under
Market, outer Mission, and Geary and
Montgomery streets. The subways will
have fast surface extensions reaching
in several directions into the most
thickly inhabited suburbs. Swift feeder
bus lines will connect with the subway
system over fourteen different routes
blanketing San Francisco.
There will be 7.07 miles of subway
construction and 2.30 miles of new sur-
face extensions, in addition to the
many spreading municijjal lines now
operating and to be taken into the
rapid transit system. Cost of the im-
provement will come within the origi-
nal estimates of $49,250,000.
.\t the outset present rolling stock
will be augmented by the addition of
thirty-five new cars and seventy-four
gasoline and trolley busses. Alteration
of present cars will include installation
of power-operated doors. Some will be
equipped with couplers for multiple-
unit operation during rush hours.

Proposed Sewer Bond Issue of 1937
Election November 2, 1937
THE City of San Francisco has on
the ballot for approval on Novem-
ber 2. 1937, a sewer bond issue for
15,000,000 which is to be used for the
extension of existing trunk sewers, ad-
ditions to sewage treatment plants, and
the replacement of existing main sew-
ers that are beyond repair.
It is of extreme importance, from the
standpoint of health and sanitation, that
the bond issue be approved in order that
the sewer system may be brought up to
the proper standard by these extensions
and replacements, and, as the work is of
such magnitude, it can best be accom-
plished by a bond issue at this time.
Many of our existing sewers are very
old and are practically worn out. The
records of the majority of them were
destroyed by the catastrophe of 1906.
We know, however, that many of them
are over fifty or sixty years old ; to this
day there are some wood boxes serving
as sewers.
Even the damage caused by the dis-
aster of 1906 has not been entirely taken
care of. Only those sewers that were
practically destroyed and had caved in
were given attention.
A large part of the City of San Fran-
cisco bordering on the waterfront is
subject to settling ground, and over a
certain period of time this settling ac-
tion produces sumps, thus preventing
the sewers from functioning and also
creating insanitary conditions. Firms
whose buildings are served by these
sewers naturally suffer thereby, and se-
rious damage is sometimes caused by
their basements becoming flooded.
On account of the lack of main sew-
ers, new industrial and residential de-
velopment is retarded, as a result of
which a considerable amount of tax
money is lost to the city.
It will be necessary, over a period of
years, to establish sewage treatment
plants in order to prevent the raw sew-
age from emptying into the bay waters.
It is proposed to develop this program
gradually by obtaining the necessary
lands for certain extensions to these
plants.
The program for the development of
sewage treatment plants is in accord-
ance with the recommendations of the
Board of Consulting Sanitary En-
gineers.
The Director of Public Works has
been endeavoring for some time to de-
velop a comprehensive and coordinated
system of sewers and drainage facilities

to which all new construction must con-
form. He is continually receiving com-
plaints from property owners, business
firms, and also corporations that desire
to institute new residential and commer-
cial development, but the lack of sewers,
or the poor condition of the sewers,
prevents this, and until capital funds
are provided through this proposed
bond issue, no relief can be given.
The immediate requirements for the
reconstruction and extension of sewers
and sewer plants would cost at least
$10,000,000, but I believe that a partial
program of reconstruction and exten-
sion could be put into eflect for about
$5,000,000 and, upon completion
thereof, action could be taken for an ex-
tension of the program as conditions
warrant and the development becomes
essential.
It is planned to spread the expendi-
ture of the funds from this bond issue
over a period of five years, and the pro-
posed work to be accomplished is as
follows :

DOLLARS VS. CENTS
Be it common sense — horse sense or Scotch sense — it is
certainly good sense to get as many cents out of your dollar
as yon possibly can. .^^
It is a proven fact that when you avail yourself of the DOLLAR

you actually get an average of 45 cents more ride for your dollar.

The Junior Recreation Museum
By JOSEPHINE D. RANDALL
Superintendent
ANY recreational program that jus-
. tifies itself in any situation must
do so in terms of what it, as activity,
means to the individual it touches. I
could tell you of the hundreds of thou-
sands who have participated in the
varied programs of activities on our
pla\-grounds and at our community cen-
ters ; I might tell you that over a thou-
sand persons enjoyed the beaut}- of the
out-of-doors at Camp ^Mather in the
high Sierra during the month of July:
that each day hundreds of boys and girls
thrill to the joy and rhythm of our mu-
sical and folk dancing activities : that
our swimming pools have given many,
many people the opportunity for fine,
vigorous activity and real fun.
I would like to go into details of
those activities but today I prefer to
tell you of a new adventure in our Rec-
reation Department — of the aims of this
adventure and of the reasons for the
methods used in this new project which
we call our Junior Recreation IMuseum.
Possibly to many of you a museum
has been characterized by your early
impressions of an exhibit of Egj-ptian
mummies, tomahawks from an Indian
grave or the wax flowers of the 80's and
90's. Our new adventure is a museum
in the modem conception of the term —
it is a true activity center, a place where
boys and girls and young men and
women are watching plants and animals
live and grow : are constructing model
airplanes, model engines, model cars ;
are making w'ax flowers, too — ^but a col-
lection, true to life in color and size, of
all wild flowers that grow in the region
of San Francisco. These are used for
purposes of study and identification.
Scale models of old and historic ships
are being constructed from blueprints
made by the boys themselves ; a model
of Fort Union has just been finished in
complete and accurate detail by a group
of boys particularly interested in the
early history of California : a kaiak that
would please an eskimo seal hunter is
nearing completion, while in another
wing an authentic picture of the histori-
cal development of gardens is being de-
picted in scale models, the earliest of
which shows the Hanging Gardens of
Babylon.
A large and constantly increasing
stamp collection is on exhibit for study
and for use by all interested in philately.
A well equipped dark room provides
adequate facilities for developing and
finishing photographs. Instruction is
given in the art of photography, and re-
sults of the eiTorts of our amateurs
have received wide recognition.
JOSEPHINE D. RANDALL
A visitor to the museum is first of all
impressed by the busy groups of young
people, each member of which is ab-
sorbed in his work. There has never
been a problem of discipline in the
museum, and the monthly attendance
averages about 3,500. There is no dis-
order. Each individual is deeply inter-
ested in the thing that he is doing, and he
is accomplishing the work in a rhythm
that he sets for himself. We as recre-
ation leaders are endeavoring to create
an attitude on the part of the young
people about the things they do rather
than about the particular task itself.
\\'e know that the process involves the
result of the way in which one does a
thing rather than the thing that is done.
We want to give to all who participate
in the activities of the Junior Museum
an opportunity to learn to discover
themselves, to learn to live with them-
selves in a rich and satisfying manner.
We are an.xious that they make major
advances in the relationships of life
rather than in the mechanics of living.
\\'e want them to be interested in the
things people are doing rather than in
the finished product alone.
-Activities at the museum involve the
creation of attitudes in a place of im-
portance above and beyond the mere
teaching of techniques and skills.
The Recreation Department has been
fortunate indeed in receiving the wise
counsel and guidance of an exceptional
committee of experts to direct their
work in this new endeavor. Dr. Frank
Tose. Chief, Department of Exhibits,
California Academy of Sciences, has
been chairman of the Junior Recreation
Museum Committee since its inception.
Other members are Mrs. Paul Scherer,
E. R. Leach, Dr. Mary H. Layman.
Mrs. Rudolph Scheville, Dr. Isabel Mc-
Cracken and Dr. Harold Jones.
The Smithsonian Institution in
Washington, D. C, has made a most in-
teresting contribution of eighty-nine
specimens of articles made and used by
members of early Indian tribes in the
eastern section of our country.

The Man Sooy!
tl ALL the world loves a lover," but
./\ in this material twentieth century
those of us who are more concerned
with economic welfare and the progress
of our institutions than affairs of the
heart admire with even more fervor
the doer of worthwhile things. 'Tis one
thing to dream, to visualize in a practi-
cal and useful way ; quite another to
execute. Seldom does the Creator see
fit to incorporate both these qualities in
one human form.
We're talking now about California's
monument to the livestock industry —
San Francisco's livestock exposition
now altering the landscape in 'Visitacion
Valley — and the man whose child it is
and whose dreams are coming true —
Charles H, Sooy — son of the soil, lover
of improved animal kind, leader in po-
litical, legal and civic affairs, and the
man of the century when it comes to
raising gold with which to bring his
vision into manifestation.
With a will and determination to de-
feat obstacles and surmount disap-
pointments that would have tried the
patience of a Job, this man has stead-
fastly pursued his purpose and ambi-
tion for now more than twenty years —
that of creating a permanent livestock
e.xposition home on the shores of San
Francisco Bay that will annually por-
tray the industry in a manner quite
CHARLES H. SOOY
comparable to the livestock division of
the Panama-Pacific Exposition of
1915, now historically recorded as the
foremost of its kind ever held on
American soil.
It was in fact in the atmosphere of
this famed exposition in Marina, Mr.
Sooy surrounded by a group of leading
San Franciscans seated on bales of
straw, that the idea took form. That
show furnished ample precedent. In
quality and scope of exhibits, the sig-
nificance which attached to awards, and
the numbers who came and saw, it was
a huge success. In the intervening
years, however, the livestock aspects
of California's agriculture have grown
tremendously, until today there is far
more justification for such an exhibi-
tion than existed back in 1915. In fact,
the maximum development of livestock
progress and wealth demands such an
institution where can be displayed not
only the accomplishments of Cali-
fornia's herds and flocks and breeding
genius, but where there can meet in
constructive competition exhibits from
whatever part of the globe may be
extended entry — an annual conclave
truly national and international in
character.
It has been a long and tedious road
from the inception of this manger-born
idea to the mass of concrete and steel
which is rising skyward today as the
home of the Grand National Livestock
Exposition. In 1930 fifty freeholders
of San Francisco and San Mateo coun-
ties petitioned the governor for the
creation of an agricultural district.
Here the real start was made. Promptly
District 1-A was formed and eight
trustees were appointed. Through the
efforts of the then Governor Rolph an
appropriation of $250,000 was made
available in 1931, contingent upon rais-

San Francisco Theatres Pre-
paring for World's Fair
By JOHN W. CARROLL
JOHN W. CARROLL
/. A. T. S. E.
San Francisco is stretching out its
applauding arms and its voice to again
gain rank as one of the great theatrical
centers of the world, and this result it
will accomplish before the opening of
the Golden Gate Exposition, a great
world's fair, in the 3'ear 1939.
In bygone days no stage success was
complete until it had shown in San
Francisco. Every great play was pro-
duced in this city ; every great actor
and actress appeared here, and every
vaudeville number of renown was wel-
come. The big names of the theatrical
world were familiar. Booth and Bar-
ret, Ward and James, Maude Adams,
all of them came. So did Patti and
Caruso, and Tettrazini adopted San
Francisco as her own. Every celebrity
the footlights knew came to San Fran-
cisco, even the great Bernhart.
To the old Orpheum there came
every artist who had won fame on the
vaudeville stage. Week after week and
year after year it was considered the
accepted thing to attend the Orpheum
because always there was something
good to see or hear.
San Francisco became known as a
great show town — one of the best in
the world. Those days are now coming
back. An inkling of the theatrical re-
juvenation has been given during re-
cent months by the appearance of a
few real stage successes. At present
The Curran is showing "Tonight at
8:30," one of the successes of New
York's Broadway. A few others have
been here during recent months, and
many more are to follow.
There comes, too, the news that high
class vaudeville is returning to this city.
The Columbia Theater, which a few
years ago was the Orpheum, is to re-
turn to the realm of its first love.
vaudeville. The devotees of vaudeville
who traipsed across this stage for so
many happy years are to return and
give us again those shows enjoyed so
much in the days gone by, the era that
some old-timers refer to as the "happy
days."
San Francisco is coming back as a
great show town.
Market Street Movie Palaces
Beautified
The United Artists and New Em-
bassy theaters are San Francisco's only
home-owned downtown first-run the-
aters. Herman L. Cohen is owner and
operator of both these houses, which
have been recently competely remod-
eled.
One hundred thousand dollars was
spent in modernizing these theaters
from sidewalk to screen. The modern-
istic new marquees, fronts and lobbies
present a beautiful outward appearance
to these outstanding show palaces.
New projection, sound, carpeting,
lighting, etc., have all been installed to
present in the finest manner the great
arrav of pictures the United Artists
and New Embassy will present.
Among the pictures which will be
shown are: "Dead End," "Prisoner of
Zenda," "Stand In," "Adventures of
Marco Polo," "Hurricane," "The Gold-
wyn Follies," "Nothing Sacred,'' and
manv more.

Rapid Transit Construction a Boon to Labor
WITH more than 40 per cent of
the entire rapid transit bond is-
sue to be spent directly for labor in
construction, the workers of San Fran-
cisco have a bigger stake in the subway
proposal than any other group.
Support for the $49,250,000 transit
issue appearing on the November ballot
is urged by resolution of the Central
Labor Council, the Building Trades
Council, the Chamber of Commerce,
Junior Chamber of Commerce, Citi-
zens' Rapid Transit Committee and
many other forward-looking civic
groups. Factional strife has been for-
gotten in this general movement for the
progress and prosperity of San Fran-
cisco.
The need for drastic improvement in
transportation facilities throughout the
city has long been apparent. Accredited
experts have declared that the only
practical answer to our traffic problem
lies in subway rapid transit. It is pre-
dicted that any increase in the tax rate
resulting from the bond issue will be
By JOHN P. MURPHY
San Francisco Public Utilities Commissioner
more than otifset by population and
property value increases due to the im-
provement.
Paul J. Ost, chief electrical engineer
for the Public I'tilities Commission,
estimates that 4,700,000 man-days of
work will be required for construction
of the three subway tubes — under
Market Street, outer Mission Street,
and Montgomery and Geary streets.
The project will give work to 4,000
men over a five-year period directly on
construction. Besides there are build-
ings to be erected, others to be shored
up, cars to build and remodel, mate-
rials, equipment and supplies to be
made, maintained and delivered. These
things will create work for other thou-
sands and reflect benefits on every
branch of labor and industry in San
Francisco.
^Manufacture and maintenance of
shop machinery and equipment, miscel-
laneous tools, cable, wire, current con-
ductors, substation machinery, supplies
and control equipment also will make
work for local labor.
Estimates on just a few of the prin-
cij)al materials to be utilized in con-
struction of the subways include :
Lumber 40,000,000 board feet
Cement 250,000 barrels
Crushed rock 250,000 cubic yards
Ties 60,000 pieces
Structural and reinforcing steel 40,000 tons
Rails 4,000 tons
Cars remodeled 127
New cars 35
Busses (trolley and Rasoline) 74
Car barns and shops 2
Copper wire and cable 100 tons
All this means work, able-bodied
men at work instead of on relief, and
general prosperity for San Francisco.
The rapid transit system will save from
fifteen to thirty minutes in travel time
from the downtown district to our
homes, it will build up the city and in-
crease property values. It is imperative
to prevent loss of population and in-
dustrial retrogression.

THE MUNICIPAL RECORD

Community Chest
IF you hear the boys at the city hall
bandying a lot of military titles
around among themselves, don't get ex-
cited.
It won't mean that they've all signed
up in some kind of secret military or-
ganization.
It will mean simply that they've gone
to work under Assistant Administrative
Officer Thomas ( Colonel until Novem-
ber 5) Toomey in the interests of the
Community Chest appeal.
The general "Buy Health and Hap-
piness" campaign of the Chest started
October 20.
But the employees and officialdom of
the city and county set an example for
the rest of San Francisco's public and
private employees by voluntarily getting
to work ten days before that time.
The office of Colonel Toomey has im-
posed strict censorship pending the first
campaign report luncheon, but rumors
from what war correspondents call
"usually reliable sources" indicate the
city and county people from Mayor
Rossi and Sheriff Murphy right down
to the newest laborer on the payroll will
have made a good record when returns
are finally tabulated.
The portion of this year's $2,090,000
campaign goal allocated to the city and
county employees, exclusive of the
school department, which has its own
division, is $44,000.
This is 13 per cent greater than last
year's goal and it's a major reason why
Colonel Toomey and his cohorts decided
to start early.
The other chief reason is that solicit-
ing the city-county employees isn't sim-
ply a matter of going through the civic
center buildings.
City employees are not only scattered
throughout the city, in remote parks and
in district police stations, but several
hundred of them are so far from the
city that they don't even come in over
week-ends.
The most remote battalion in the mu-
nicipal division or in any other campaign
division is composed of two hundred

S
workers at Hetch Hetchy, 189 miles
from the city. "Major" John Ryan, en-
gineer in charge, will head solicitation
there. Another faraway battalion is
based at Camp Mocassin, 150 miles
away, where Lloyd McAtee will act as
"Major."
"I expect that
we will have a
very successful
campaign this
year," says Too-
mey. "Public em-
ployees are coming
to realize more and
more that the
security of any
community is inti-
mately bound up
with the fate of
its less fortunate
citizens.
"When the
Community Chest
adopted 'Buy
Health and Hap-
piness for Them'
as the theme of
this year's cam-
paign they didn't
do so merely because this happened to
be a pleasant sounding combination of
words.
"The slogan actually is pregnant with
meaning. And so closely is the happi-
ness of San Francisco related to the
welfare of all its citizens that we might
restate it 'Buy Health and Happiness — •
not only for Them — but for yourself,
your next door neighbor and the city at
large.' "
Secretary Ickes of the Department of
the Interior said just a few weeks ago
that if Americans individually could
take time off and visit the welfare
agencies of their cities there would be no
doubt as to the success of this autumn's
wave of Community Chest appeals.
Most people, and least of all busy city
employees, can't take time out for field
trips to hospitals, orphanages and day
nurseries. But Eneas J. Kane of Mayor
Rossi's office, an Adjutant under Too-
mey in the campaign, is doing the next
best thing by presenting the Community
Chest story in talks before groups of
employees and officials.

Junior Recreation Museum
(Continued from Page 17)
merits used at the observatory. These
have proved highly interesting to chil-
dren studying in the field of astronomy.
Bert Walker, director of the museum,
has made an unusual contribution of
hundreds of articles, made and used by
the Mewok Indians, which he person-
ally uncovered, and many of which he
sifted from early burial mounds in the
high Sierra country.
The San Francisco Museum of Art
and the Academy of Sciences have
been most generous in their assistance.
Loan exhibits are made available by
these organizations for our use. They
are exchanged every four to six weeks
for new and different exhibits and add
a great deal to the attractiveness and
interest of our museum.
Interesting plans for the future de-
velopment of the Junior Recreation Mu-
seum are under way. The Recreation
Commission is acquiring a number of
acres of land which we call Corona
Heights but which is more familiarly
known as Rocky Hill and is located at
Roosevelt Way and Fifteenth Street.
The central location of this property, its
unusual contour and its interesting ele-
vation will make an ideal setting for this
particular type of activity. The building
which is being carefully planned is par-
ticularly fitting for the location and
from a short distance will appear to be
only a portion of the hill itself. Nature
trails, outdoor gardens, wild flowers and
shrubs in natural habitat as well as chil-
dren's playgrounds will make this one
of the most unique and fascinating
recreation centers to be found in any
location.
We hope that we shall be able to de-
velop the activities of our Junior Recre-
ation Museum in such a way that it will
become a vital force in the lives of thou-
sands of our young people. Today it is
used, not only by groups from the play-
grounds, but by Camp Fire Girls, Girl
Scouts, Boy Scouts and children from
San Francisco's public schools.
This entire project has been under
way for less than a year and a half. To-
day an average monthly attendance
totals 3,500. Its growth has been an in-
spiration to all who have been privileged
to participate in its development.
Those interested in the Junior Recre-
ation Museum hope to present its activi-
ties and work as an outstanding exhibit
and demonstration at the Golden Gate
International Exposition in 1939. It is
hoped many communities throughout
our country may have a representation
in the Junior Museum Division of the
Recreation Section at the Exposition.
We believe that such an exhibit and
demonstration will assist all who view
it to visualize the achievements of man,
the significant facts of history, and the
beauties of nature : to illustrate the prin-
ciples of science and to provide avenues
for creative education through various
"activities" or "hobbies," during the
free time of young people, and essen-
tially to cooperate with and to aid ex-
isting agencies, such as the home, the
school, the parks, playgrounds and the
varied facilities that are provided in the
interests of mankind in seeking to de-
velop and maintain a wholesome per-
sonality.
The scope of a Junior Recreation
Museum is laid down in a comprehen-
sive way by the Directors of the Chil-
dren's Museum in Brooklyn, New York.
Their purpose is to build up gradually,
for the children of Brooklyn and vicin-
ity, a museum that will delight and in-
struct the children who visit it ; to bring
together collections in every branch of
Natural History that is calculated to in-
terest children, and to stimulate their
powers of observation and reflection by
collections and pictures, cartoons and
charts, models, maps and so on, in each
of the important branches of knowl-
edge which is taught in the elementary
schools.
The museum through its collection,
library directory, curators and assist-
ants attempts to bring the child, whether
attending school or not, into direct rela-
tion with the most important subjects
and appeal to the interest of children in
their daily life in the school room, in
their reading, in their games and ram-
bles in the fields, and in the industries
that are being carried on about them or
in which they themselves later may be-
come engaged.
The means of achieving the purposes
outlined in their scope are indicated as
follows :
"To set up instructive appropriately
labelled displays and exhibits which
would include natural history speci-
mens arranged with reference to the
stories they tell, geographical, geologi-
cal and historical specimens, models,
etc. ; to conduct illustrated talks, to in-
augurate motion pictures for young
people, of travel, of customs, of plant
and animal life, etc., and to develop
hobbies and interests through 'clubs' or
'sections' and out-of-door excursions
organized where interest manifests
itself."
The Junior Recreation Museum is a
division of the San Francisco Recrea-
tion Department. Members of the Rec-
reation Commission extend to all read-
ers a most cordial invitation to visit the
museum. It is located at 600 Ocean
Avenue and is open daily from 10
until 5.

THE MUNICIPAL RECORD
2Q
Samuel Gompers School
(Continued from Page 13)
is given over entirely to classroom in-
struction in related technical work and
the drafting room.
An extensive and intensive vocational
survey is to be made of San Francisco's
commercial and industrial enterprises to
further study every occupation where
vocational school training can be of as-
sistance in making young men and
women more employable.
Elevation of the compulsory school
attendance age from sixteen to eighteen
years in California fifteen years ago
placed upon educators the task of taking
first steps toward fitting youth, who
were not inclined toward a professional
or literary future, in skills in the use of
tools employed in productive labor.
The collapse of the apprentice system
in many industrial trades in recent years
and the restriction of immigration
quotas which has decreased the number
of skilled tradesmen coming from the
Old World have created a situation
which has given national as well as local
concern. The remedy suggested is a re-
turn to the old system of indentured ap-
prentices in vogue a century ago with
auxiliary and supplemental training to
be given by trade and technical schools.
"The trend of teaching, lay and other-
wise, too frequently coincides with in-
clinations and seems unduly to encour-
age the idea that a literary career is more
important than the art of commerce or
of skill in the use of tools of productive
labor," said Archie J. Mooney, chair-
man and secretary of the California
Committee on Apprentice Training, in
a recent discussion on this vital subject.
"I think it can be said that, for a long
time, a great majority have assumed
that the primary and predominant func-
tion of education should be concerning
problems of culture rather than subsis-
tence. In other words, we have failed to
promulgate some necessary functions
of education for the purpose of teach-
ing the first essentials of life — the pro-
duction of the means by which life is
sustained."
There are certain fundamental poli-
cies, adherence to which is regarded as
essential in the development of a pro-
gram of vocational education, that will
best prepare the child for participation
in the economic order and for meeting
civic responsibihties. These policies are :
( 1 ) The controlling purpose must be
the preparation of youth for useful em-
ployment.
(2) Separately organized schools
must be provided for this type of edu-
cation. The cosmopolitan secondary
school, by reason of its organization,
leadership, and objectives, is not a satis-
factory type of school in which to give
vocational courses.
(3) Such schools must meet individ-
ual needs. They should provide training
on all the levels at which entrance to
employment is desirable, or at which the
requirements of employment make it
necessary.
(4) Admission to specific vocational
courses should be restricted to those
pupils who can profit by the special in-
struction provided.
(5 ) The constant cooperation of em-
ployers and workers in the vocations for
which persons are being trained is es-
sential.
(6) The teachers of practical voca-
tional subjects must have had satisfac-
tory employment experience, as well as
personal fitness and special preparation
for teaching.
(7) The schools must have adequate
equipment. This means that the tools,
machinery and facilities provided must
be as modern and complete as those
which the worker will be required to use
when he secures employment.
(8) The schools must have an or-
ganized placement plan, and employers
must find from experience that the
schools constitute the best source of
supply of trained workers.
(9) The local community, the state
and the nation should contribute to the
support of these schools and share in the
responsibility for their success.
(10) Constant research and read-
justment in the light of such research
are essential.
(11) Preparation for citizenship in
its broadest aspects must be the ultimate
objective of all vocational education.
The last United States Census re-
vealed the need for such training if
American born boys are to be given
equal opportunity with those coming
from other lands to acquire journeyman
skill in industrial occupations. The
census showed, as a typical example,
that of the 717 journeyman cabinet
makers employed in San Francisco in
1930, 488 were of foreign birth and 229
were native born Americans ; the same
situation existed for moulders, painters,
plasterers, cement workers, carpenters,
tinsmiths, brick and stone masons, in
fact, in all industries reported, except
printing and engraving.
Great strides and rapid advancement
in technical educational lines have been
made in the eastern portion of the
United States, and particularly in cer-
tain foreign countries.
The great evening technical schools
of London, Manchester, Liverpool, Bir-
VOTE FOR THE BONDS
mingham, Bristol, and Edinburgh have
greatly benefited in manufacturing and
have improved, the condition of the
masses.
The great technical schools of the
United States, such as Cooper Union of
New York City, Pratt Institute of
Brooklyn and Chicago, Mechanics'
Evening Technical School of Cincin-
nati, Franklin Union of Philadelphia,
Lowell School for Industrial Foremen
of Boston, Wentworth Institute, have
done splendid work for the apprentice
mechanics.

Rapid Transit a San Francisco
Necessity
(Continued from Page 9)
present a transportation problem sel-
dom found even in cities of 1,500,000
population. Market Street carries twice
the traffic of any arterial in the world.
The subway proposal is absolutely
non-partisan in character and should
have the support of every representa-
tive group in the city.
Worries over the cost of rapid tran-
sit are allayed with the statement that
even with the addition of the proposed
$49,250,000 subway issue, the city's
bonded indebtedness leeway for public
emergencies or other improvements
would never fall below the legal limi-
tation of $35,666,912.
As for the tax rate, it will be in-
creased only by some seven cents a year
spread over five years, for the amorti-
zation of the forty-year bonds does not
begin until the si.xth year. Then two
factors will join to eflfect in part or en-
tirely the tax obligation. First, interest
and redemption charges against present
outstanding bonds reach their peak in
1937-38, and then show a tremendous
drop. If such charges on all authorized
bonds unredeemed as of July 1, 1936,
are added to the interest and redemp-
tion charges on the rapid transit bonds,
the combined total will call for a tax
rate in 1946-47 only slightly exceeding
the present commitment for 1937-38.
Thereafter this combined debt charge
will be far below that of the current
year.
The second factor is the inevitable
increase in property values due to the
improvement, meaning more taxable
real estate and larger tax returns.
Proof of this is afiforded by the record
of the area served by the Twin Peaks
tunnel. Today that once barren acre-
age is covered with beautiful homes
and there has been an increase in land
values and improvements of more than
$157,000,000. The consequent increase
in tax revenues has already paid for the
tunnel nine times over.
Fourteen new bus lines, honeycomb-
ing the city, additional street cars and
modification of present cars, all mean
more employment for San Franciscans.
Engineers estimate that subway con-
struction will mean five years of steady
work for 4,000 men, not counting the
thousands of others required for the
fabrication and delivery of products
and supplies. Most of the $49,250,000
will be spent right here in San Fran-
cisco, 40 per cent for labor and 60 per
cent for materials.
Few decisions of greater import
were ever put up to the voters of San
Francisco. The choice is between
growth and decline, between metropoli-
tanism and provincialism, between ini-
tiative and sloth, between courage and
cowardice, between a fatuous pride in
past glories and a drive to new and
more splendid heights. Whatever the
cost of the project, can San Francisco
afford not to build subways ?

Director of Public Health is appealing
to you not for funds but for personal
assistance in calling attention to these
essential and necessary items of ex-
pense for new buildings and new
equipment for the care of the indigent
and aged ill, the tuberculous, and the

It is needless for me to point out in
making these recommendations that the
care of the indigent ill is the first re-
sponsibility of local government. More-
over, our problem in tuberculosis will
not be solved until every American
home realizes what tuberculosis is. how
it can be prevented and dealt with, and
there are adequate laws and finances to
carry out a complete program of pre-

Laurel Hill a Gift for
San Francisco
SPURNING the tempting bait of
real estate promoters, who are will-
ing to pay a handsome price for the
property, trustees of the Laurel Hill
Cemetery Association this week went
formally on record as determined to
perpetuate the memories of San Fran-
cisco's pioneer founders by presenting
the historic cemetery to the city to be
maintained as a pioneer memorial park.
Action of the cemetery trustees which
followed a verbal commitment along the
same lines, was taken in a resolution
unanimously adopted by them. Text of
the document, copies of which have
been forwarded to Mayor Angelo Rossi
and the Board of Supervisors, follows :
"Resolved, That the oflfer made by
Frank P. Deering, vice-president and
attorney for the Laurel Hill Cemetery ■
Association, on its behalf to the Board
of Supervisors of San Francisco to
make a gift to the city of its land, known
as Laurel Hill Cemetery, to be main-
tained with the monuments by that city
as a perpetual memorial park to com-
memorate the lives of those lying
therein, who founded this city, if the
ordinance for removal of the cemetery
be not passed, was authorized and is
hereby confirmed, and
"Be it further resolved, That said of-
fer and promise is hereby formally re-
newed if said ordinance coming before
the electors at the November election is
defeated."
Laurel Hill Cemetery, known in the
early days of San Francisco as "Lone
Mountain," comprises fifty-four acres,
valued at between $2,000,000 and $3,-
000,000.
For years real estate interests have
cast hungry eyes upon this tract, the
situation of which is incomparable from
a scenic standpoint. Trustees of the
cemetery association, however, have
turned a deaf ear to pleas that the ceme-
tery be removed and the remains of the
outstanding pioneers which rest there
be transferred to another resting place.
In passing the resolution, W. B. Reis,
president of the cemetery association,
declared that the desecration of this
historic cemetery would be an irrepar-
able loss to San Francisco and ex-
pressed the hope that the people of this
city will see fit to accept the association's
gift when they vote on the Memorial
Park proposition next November.

Speed Up San Francisco Traffic
Say Experts
(Continued from Page 1+)
Other safety measures will include
installation of automatic block signals
to permit minimum safe headways in
the subways and along the surface
rights of way. Interlocking will be pro-
vided for all switches in regular use
underground. A complete telephone
system will cover all rapid transit
routes. An efficient lighting system will
care for the subways, with high inten-
sity illumination at all stations. Fans
of sufficient capacity will force ade-
quate ventilation through the tubes,
even with cars stalled.
To scare the voting public, the
"earthquake" bugaboo has been raised
by subway opponents. But if a twenty-
story Class A reinforced concrete
building is "earthquake proof," ob-
viously the reinforced concrete subway
tubes, surrounded by pack earth, are
infinitely more so.
There will be an escalator of suffi-
cient capacity for heavy traffic at the
San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge
rail terminal station. Pumps for drain-
age and waste at some stations will be
installed at all grade dips.
The subways will make for safety,
and any positive accident prevention
would be impressive in view of San
Francisco's past record. There were
1,095 major and minor accidents along
the four-track distance of Market
Street last year.
The rapid transit system will take
five years to complete, but delay in
starting it won't make it any cheaper.
Neither will the need grow any less
pressing with delay, unless all of San
Francisco's present residents move
across the bay to live because the
bridges offer a faster way home.

The Man Sooy
(Continued from Page 19)
iiig a like amount of money through
public or private subscription and the
acquisition of a building site to be
deeded to the state free of all incum-
brance. Bufifeted about like a rubber
ball between the supervisors, the mayor
and the people of San Francisco, it was
not until 1935 that the district was
qualified to receive the state's appro-
priation. Out of a fund created by
the nineteen original promoters, who
pledged themselves to the development
of the idea on that memorable day in
Marina, fifty-five acres on the bound-
ary between San Mateo and San Fran-
cisco counties were purchased.
Four hundred fifty thousand cubic
feet of earth were shifted to give the
site the desired elevation. Federal
grants were received in the form of
labor and materials amounting to
$528,000. Last August the cornerstone
ceremonies were held in connection
with the erection of the main unit,
known as the Arena, to cost $640,000.
Then the maritime strike interfered
with the delivery of structural steel
from eastern ports. Construction was
halted temporarily, but during the past
spring was again resumed and now the
great arches which will support a roof
146 feet from the ground are about to
join. This arena, 400 feet long by 300
feet wide, without a single pillar to ob-
struct the vision, will dwarf any simi-
lar building yet constructed in this
country and have a seating capacity of
12.000, which can be increased to
30.000 by utilizing the ring.
This key structure will be flanked
on all four sides by additional units
which will house livestock and com-
mercial exhibits, making a building ot
fourteen acres under one roof, con-
vertible to other exposition and conven-
tion purposes to increase the income
possibilities of the plant and its useful-
ness to the Bay area. The total esti-
mated cost of improvements alone,
including a half-mile track and grand-
stand, reaches $3,000,000. To some
these figures may have a ring of ex-
travagance, overbigness and the like,
but the prediction has been made by
those who know that even the present
well devised plans for the flanking
buildings will prove to be none too ex-
pansive when the opening show is held.
And when will that be? All indi-
cations point to the dedicatory show
being held as a major feature of the
Golden Gate International Exposition
in 1939. Developments between the
Golden Gate management and the dis-
trict have been most happy and fortu-
nate. The World's Fair would be sadly
incomplete without a livestock depart-
ment, and yet the space on Treasure
Island simply will not accommodate
such an array of exhibits as this magnet
will draw. Very wisely, the Exposi-
tion's board of managers turned to
Agricultural District I-A for the use of
its facilities in housing the livestock
features. Thev were willing that
$500,000 of the'$5,000,000 state appro-
priation for the World's Fair be di-
verted to the Grand National and there
used for the completion of the neces-
san- features of the stock show plant.
This move at once relieved the building
fund situation for Mr. Sooy and his
district trustees and at the same time
will provide the Golden Gate Exposi-
tion with a physical equipment for its
livestock division such as no show has
ever been granted in this country. And,
incidentally, by this arrangement the
interests of the taxpayers have been
well served.
Soon, therefore, San Francisco will
join the parade of cities which acknowl-
edge their appreciation of the value of
great stock shows every year — such as
Chicago, Kansas City, Fort Worth,
Denver, Portland and Los Angeles.
The latter city has long held its Great
Western Livestock Show under the
handicap of inadequate facilities. In
adding San Francisco and Los Angeles
to the great circuit of stock shows, Mr.
Sooy was joined by J. A. McNaughton
in getting needed appropriations from
the legislature of building programs.
These men, representing the interests
of Agricultural Districts 1-A and 6,
worked in closest harmony, thus dem-
onstrating their capacity for foresight
and leadership.

Above is a picture of one of the four
Hall-Scott powered Fageol Fire
Trucks, recently purchased by the San Fran-
cisco Fire Department and assigned to the
No. 7 Chemical Station at 315 Duncan Street.
Here we have a combination of the sturdy con-
struction for which Fageol have always been
known, and the power and dependability that
have been so characteristic of Hall-Scott heavy
duty truck motors.
Then trucks, principally the product of two
well known local manufacturers, should ren-
der many years of fast, safe and efficient
service in protecting the homes and business
houses of San Francisco residents.
The four new San Francisco Fire Trucks are powered by
Hall-Scolt Truck Engines, Model 175, having a 5" bore,
6" stroke, and a displacement of 706.8 cubic inches.

City Officials Will Beautify San Francisco
for 1939 Exposition
By ANGELO J. ROSSI
Mayor
HONORABLE ANGELO J. ROSSI
Mayor of San Francisco
IT is quite a natural thing for a
great metropolis to make extensive
preparations for any outstanding event.
We San Franciscans are confident
that the Golden Gate International Ex-
position of 1939 will mark an epoch
in the story of the progress of San
Francisco and the entire Bay Area.
In consonance with this idea, there-
fore, a general program of preparation
has been outlined. At a recent meeting
of the Board of Supervisors, the Hon-
orable Adolph Schmidt introduced a
resolution whereby the Mayor of San
Francisco was requested to appoint a
Citizens' Committee composed of men
and women best qualified to direct and
City
Hall.
San
Francisco
conduct a city-wide education, clean-up
and improvement campaign.
As a result of this, it was my pleas-
ure to appoint this committee. It was
my idea that every group in each .sec-
tion of San Francisco should be well
represented thereon. I have chosen in-
dividuals who are leaders in various
sectional activities in our city, as well
as important personages in the club and
business life of San Francisco.
Naturally, someone must take the
lead in matters of this sort. Therefore,
it will be the policy of my administra-
tion to beautify and clean-up city-
owned property, wherever it may be
located within the confines of San
Francisco.
We are most fortunate in having
many natural beauty spots whicii would
take on a far more interesting appear-
ance if given additional attention. This
the city will do. Our streets will be
made more attractive through the co-
operation of the Department of Public
Works under the supervision of our
Chief Administrative Officer, the Hon-
orable Alfred J. Cleary.
Mr. Cleary will brighten up the faces
of all our public buildings.
The genial John McLaren, Superin-
tendent of Parks, will, I am sure, exert
himself to the utmost in the use of his
invaluable horticultural genius to give
to our glorious parks and parkways an
even more beautiful and colorful ap-
pearance than that of which we now so
justly boast.
The entire family of city officials is
unciualifiedly committed to the utmost
type of cooperation with the ideas we
have in mind, the City of San Fran-
cisco will lead.

The purpose we shall have in mind,
of course, will be to make the best
possible impression on visitors to the
Fair to the end that many may lengthen
their stay with us and in some instances
settle here permanently.
It is my hope that San Francisco
property owners and business men, as
well as the city government will do
everything possible to increase the
beauty of our city by cleaning, painting
and remodeling their properties.
In this regard, I am pleased that the
movement has already gained momen-
tum, even before the first committee
meeting, for I have noted with pleasure
the announcements from many large
business organizations that they will
cooperate even to sand-blasting the
fronts of their entire buildings. This
and many other types of clean-up ac-
tivities I am sure will be carried on by
our great commercial organizations.
We expect, as well, the cooperation
of every small home or property
owner.
Paint, clean, remodel your proper-
ties. If you own a vacant lot, see to it
that the property is kept in a state of
perfect cleanliness. Ttie great outdoor
advertising agencies are going to beau-
tifv the grounds around their displays.
All in all, we have a most ambitious
plan and I am sure we can successfully
execute it.
A cleaner city will pay dividends,
not only because of that fact itself, but
it will increase the pride that we San
Franciscans have in our glorious city,
and, of course, will be an added attrac-
tion for our tourist visitors.
Therefore, as Mayor of San Fran-

THE MUNICIPAL RECORD
SAN FRANCISCO WATER DEPARTMENT
REVENUE INCREASES
LEWIS F. BYINGTON
President of Utilities Commission
AS the San Francisco Water Depart-
l\. ment approaches the close of its
eighth year under city ownership, it
presents a very substantial record of
achievement. Progress has been made
in service rendered, both as to quantity
and quality of water supplied. Rates
have been lowered and a very sound
financial status has been maintained
at all times.
Water consumption for this year has
averaged 59.2 million gallons daily,
which is a gain of .8 of a million gal-
lons daily over the preceding year and
is an all-time peak consumption.
Water sales for the first ten months
of the year amounted to $5,818,095
with net profit from operations of
$2,755,908 as compared to $2,622,421
for the same period of last year.
The special rates in the higher usage
brackets for new and increased usage,
put into effect January 1, 1937, with
the view of stimulating the sale of
available surplus Hetch Hetchy water,
have resulted in approximately $190,-
000 of increased revenue to the depart-
ment. In accordance with promises
made at the time that these special rates
were adopted, it is now proposed to
make these rates applicable to all con-
sumers after January 1, 1938. Savings
to consumers through the several rate
reductions inaugurated by the Public
Utilities Commission will amount to
upwards of $2,000,000 as of December
31, 1937.
Construction of a pipe line is at pres-
ent underway for the purpose of su])-
plying water to the City of Palo Alto
and other peninsula communities. The
cost of this pipe line, which has been
underwritten by the San Francisco
Water Department, will be paid for by
the consumers served, through a sur-
charge on the existing water rates.
Constant effort has been made to
attract new business and increase sales,
and in line with this policy negotiations
are now underway looking toward sale
of water to the City of San Jose.
With the Hetch Hetchy sources to
draw upon, it has been possible to
maintain maximum storage in local
jieninsula and Alameda reservoirs.
Storage in these reservoirs reached an
all time high of 59 billion gallons at
the end of the last runoff season, and
at the close of the year will approxi-
mate 40 billion gallons — the same as
last year. Draft on the Hetch Hetchy
system was greatly curtailed during the
year due to abundant local runoff from
last winter's rains. The total delivery
to date from Hetch Hetchy sources
now approximates 36 billion gallons,

almost the equivalent of the present
combined local storage.
Maintenance work has been carried
on as usual, with a generally high state
of efficiency, resulting for all of the
Department's properties. Construction
work necessary to the betterment of
service and to serve new consumers has
been carried on with due consideration
to economy of operation.
The $12,095,000 Public Works Ad-
ministration project is rapidly nearing
completion, with all contracts awarded
and only two projects remaining to be
finished. Aside from the Bond Issue
Program, the most notable new project
undertaken during the year was the
construction of the pipe line to serve
the City of Palo Alto and adjacent ter-
ritory as above mentioned.
A resume of the financial results of
city's operation of the Water Depart-
ment from March 3, 1930, to Novem-
ber 1, 1937, shows gross income of
$50,391,762 with operating expenses
nf $30,370,834. The net income of

kNE of the most modern and com-
plete buildings of its kind any-
where in the country was opened by the
Health Department on November 9 of
this year.
It is a five-story structure of red
brick at the corner of Twenty-second
Street and Potrero Avenue, adjoining •
the San Francisco Hospital, and cost
$760,915. This is part of a program the
Health Department had laid out some
seven or eight years ago for which the
voters passed a bond issue of $3,500,-
000.
Owing to conditions at the time, it
was deemed advisable to hold up con-
struction until readjustment of the busi-
ness depression. Actual building started
in December, 1934. It was finally com-
pleted and turned over to the city July,
1937.
In addition to the offices on the
ground floor, there was made provision
for a court room, a jury room for the
Sheriff's Department, and the County
Clerk's Department, whenever it is
necessary to hold hearings on mental
cases. Immediately adjoining the court
room is the judge's chamber and recep-
tion room.

THE MUNICIPAL RECORD
Twenty-five Years of Service
The
Municipal Railway of San Francisco
GEORGE FILMER
Vice-President of Utilities Commission
THE Municipal Railway has com-
pleted its twenty-fifth year of op-
eration and has continued to render the
best service possible to patrons and
residents of San Francisco.
Revenues of the Municipal Railway
have continued to increase. Operating
revenue for the year 1937 amounted
to $3,286,000, an increase of about
$147,000 or approximately 4.7 per cent
over the preceding year. Part oi this
increase is due to the fact that the
larger of the two competing privately-
owned street car companies in San
Francisco was granted a 2-cent trans-
fer charge on July 6, 1937, which re-
sulted in increased patronage on the
IMunicipal Railway lines. This healthy
increase in street car riding for the
fourth successive year is gratifying.
Although service had to be added to
keep pace with the increase in travel,
and tjie cost of wage concessions, etc.,
further increased operatins: costs, a net
income for the year 1937 amounting
to $200,000 is found, as against a net
income of $165,000 for the year 1936.
The increase in patronage of the
Municipal Railwa\- during the past
\ear resulted in serious overcrowding
of street cars. Following its policy of
placing profits back into the system in
the form of increased service, the Pub-
lic Utilities Commission added 151
e.xtra car trips daily to the various
municipal lines starting in September
and October. All available street cars
owned by the Municipal Railway are
now in operation during peak hours
of travel.
Ordinance No. 4.0521 which pro-
vides for sick leaves with pay for em-
ployees required an expenditure of
$19,000 by the Municipal Railway for
the six months' period July to Decem-
ber, 1937.
Track, roadway and equipment have
been maintained in excellent condition,
the sum of $342,000 being expended
for this purpose. Fifty-six car bodies
and nine buses and service trucks were
overhauled and painted, 325 Thermit
weld rail joints were installed, 850
lineal feet of single track was recon-
structed, 80,000 square feet of asphalt
paving was renewed and 37,800 square
feet of concrete paving base was
placed.
Capital expenditures and replace-
ments amounted to $170,000. This sum
includes $23,000 for the railway's pro-
portion of cost of the line "L" exten-
sion from 46th Avenue and Taraval
Street to a terminal on Wawona Street
near Fleishhacker Playfield, a total of
.90 of a mile of single track; $17,400
for resetting trolley poles on Van Ness
Avenue, Market Street to North Point
Street ; $46,000 for reconstruction of
Market Street, Geary Street to Sutter
Street ; $5,000 for track reconstruction
on Market Street, Fremont Street to
Enijjarcadero and $13,800 for miscel-
laneous track and equipment replace-
ments.
Six new modern buses were pur-
chased at a cost of $60,000 to replace
obsolete equipment and improve serv-
ice. One old tower truck was replaced
hv a new tower truck at a cost of
$4,800.
Rail operation on the Bay Bridge is
scheduled to be inaugurated in Novem-
ber, 1938, and it is of vital importance
to the residents of San Francisco that
they be furnished with improved trans-
portation facilities.
On December 1 the sum of $100,000
FREDERICK BOEKEN
Manager of Municipal Raittvays
in bonds of the Railway was retired
from earnings so that there now re-
mains an indebtedness of only $1,500,-
000 against the Municipal Railway
properties, which are conservatively
valued at $10,000,000.
Over 84,400,000 passengers were
carried during the year, an increase of
over 4,000,000 passengers over the pre-
vious year. Street cars and buses trav-
eled a distance of 9,000.000 miles. Car
service has been increased ; a total of
23,000 car hours over the preceding
year was operated.

Mayor Appoints New Executive
Secretary
New member of the official family is
Eric Cullenward, popular publicity
man, who just recently did such a
splendid job of successfully managing
the Golden Gate Bridge Fiesta, for
which he received the unlimited praise
of the general chairman. Supervisor
Arthur M. Brown, Jr., the city officials,
and all the newspapers of Northern
California.
ERIC S. CULLENWARD
Executiiie Secretary to Mayor Rossi
Eric S. Cullenward was born in Syd-
ney, Australia, in 1892, and came to
San Francisco at the age of 17, as a
guest of the Columbia Park Boys and
on a scholarship from Australia to lec-
ture in the schools of California and
teach Australian football.
Still as the guest of the Columbia
Park Boys, he toured with that then
famous organization the length of the
Pacific Coast and subsequently went
with them on an eight months' tour of
the United States.
Instead of returning to Australia at
the conclusion of his scholarship, he
went into the newspaper business in
1912 and moved up the journalistic lad-
der from reporter by successive steps
from every branch of the editorial
room to managing editor of the San
Francisco Examiner.
His journalistic career was most
varied, being at one time news editor
of the Vancouver Sun, telegraph editor
of the Seattle Times, day managing
editor of the Los Angeles Examiner
and assistant managing editor of the
San Francisco Chronicle.
Upon the election of James Rolph,
Jr., as Governor of the State of Cali-
fornia, he was summoned to Sacra-
mento by the late Governor and made
Secretary of the California Highway
Commission and editor of the Depart-
ment of Public Works Bulletin. In
order to be closer to the office of the
Governor, Mr. Cullenward was taken
out of the Department of Public
Works and made Chief of the new
Bureau of Publications and Docu-
ments, later being named Deputy Di-
rector of Public Works under the pres-
ent Director, Earl Lee Kelly.
During his association with the
State Government, Mr. Cullenward
acted in a publicity capacity and as a
close advisor to the late Governor.
He returned to newspaper work upon
the death of James Rolph, Jr., and was
drafted by Mayor Angelo J. Rossi to
help manage his 1935 campaign for re-
election.
Following that decisive victory, the
Mayor's present Executive Secretary
engaged in Public Relations work and
specialized in political campaigns.
In December of 1936, he was named
General Manager of the Golden Gate
Bridge Fiesta and in the face of terrific
odds, brought about partial paralysis
by San Francisco hotels strike, helped
to put on a prolonged and never-to-be-
forgotten Fiesta.
Named by Governor Merriam to be
the Publicity Director of the Califor-
nia Exposition Commission, Mr. Cul-
lenward yielded to the importuning of
Mayor Rossi's closest friends and ad-
visors, resigned from the Commission
which was just starting operations and
became Executive Secretary to the
MaA'or, on November 11, 1937.
Those close to the City Hall believe
his action in this regard was taken
because of the firm friendship existing
between the two men, Cullenward hav-
ing been selected by the Mayor to ac-
company him to Washington in 1936
as special secretary in charge of mat-
ters arising from labor unrest.
Mr. Cullenward has three sons, one
of whom, a graduate of the University
of Southern California, is a reporter
on the Call-Bulletin. Another is com-
pleting his last year at the University
of Southern California and the third
is just starting grammar school.
He is one of nine children, all of
whom are alive. His brothers and sis-
ters make their home in Australia.

ing and from the medically medieval
detention hospital in the Public Health
Building at Polk and Grove streets.
Dr. J. C. Geiger, Health Director, said
the Detention Hospital, long an eye-
sore in the city's health service system,
will be abandoned.
One ward with twenty-two beds, is
being opened on the second floor (for
men), and on the fourth floor (for
women), of the new psychopathic de-
partment. Other wards will be placed
in use, if and as the need for bed space
increases.
The psychopathic wards represent an
accomplishment in hospital architec-
ture, worked out under the direction of
Dr. L. M. Wilbor, Superintendent of
San Francisco Hospital. Every natural
aid to the care of the mentally ill is
taken into consideration.
Construction of the wards allows a
maximum of fresh air and sunlight,
using minimum amount of help. The
nurse in charge of each ward is so sta-
tioned that the entire ward is under ob-
servation at all times.

PLAY LIGHTING

Dramatic
window
lighting
h a s b e e n
used and
discussed
for years,
but many
feel it was
LEKOLITE
really given impetus and started on its
widespread usage by Schiaparelli at
the Paris Exposition.
The famous creators of fashion were
invited to exhibit their latest designs
with the stipulation that the material
used be cloth of metal in keeping with
the "Machinery" theme of the Exposi-
tion.
Schiaparelli's sequin and net gown
was so striking in its design and femi-
ninity that it aroused the ire of all ex-
hibitors and at the eleventh hour was
declared illegal. Not to be outdone by
the plot against her, Schiaparelli re-
moved the gown leaving a nude figure
under a tree of metal leaves and so
cross-lighted it with spots that it
brought out the display in three dimen-
sions with highlights and shadows and
was the talk of the Exposition.
In every display, light should per-
form two functions. First, it should
make the merchandise visible ; second,
it should enhance the appearance of the
merchandise, making it attractive and
appealing. The latter function pre-
sented the problem ; and before this
could be worked out into the correct
window spotlight, many developments
had to be brought out in lenses, globes
and color media.
Century Lighting of New York have
brought out the Fresnelite and Leko-
lite which answer the conditions im-
posed by various window installations.
The Fresnelite gives a light with a
soft edge that fades oflf gradually. It
is three times as efficient as the con-
ventional spotlights ; and besides being
small in size for window work, it is
possible to flood the light at a short
throw. This light is only 8x9x9 inches.
The Lekolite gives a sharp definition
of the beam. The shape of the beam is
controlled by built-in shutter arrange-
ments and iris. This light will project
stencil designs, and is four times as
efficient as an ordinary spotlight.
Neither of these lights project any
filament image.
Dramatic lighting is used extensively
in New York and in the foremost
stores throughout the country. Recently
it has been seen in some of our own
stores. The equipment is distributed
locally by the Associated Theatrical
Service.

ALCAZAR THEATRE PRESENTS
"CRICKET ON THE HEARTH"
By JOHN W. CARROLL
FOR aiiN-one who has yet to get the
feel of Christmas, this reviewer
suggests a visit to the Alcazar Theatre
this week to see the Federal Theatres'
production of Charles Dickens' "The
Cricket on the Hearth."
The prosaic of every-day life is dof-
fed with hat and coat as one enters the
theatre. From busy O'Farrell Street
to the poetry of Dickens' time is but a
step, it is quickly discovered. The play
is done in the period of that day, 1845.
One enters to find the house lights
half up, the curtain fully up and the
stage set with the interior of a cot-
tage of the English countryside, a
cheerful fire burning on the hearth.
No one is on the stage. The play starts
with the entrance of a courteously
apologetic old gentleman hastening
down the aisle from the rear of the
house. He seats himself in a chair be-
side the fire. He is the Story Teller.
He begins the tale of "The Cricket on
the Hearth" and one by one the char-
acters in the story appear upon the
stage. So naturally do they take up the
thread of the story with dialogue and
action that one is unconsciously drawn
into the living interest of these people
of nearly a century ago. Another sur-
prise comes with the conclusion of each
act when the curtain is not lowered
and the scenes are changed by four
carolers, who, dressed so like the il-
lustrations of a Dickens' book they
appear to have stepped from between
its covers, sing as they go about their
work.
Ralph Freud directed the play and
lie also took the part of the Story
Teller. As should and could be ex-
pected from his direction of past suc-

cesses with the Federal Theatre play-
ers, Freud has been eminently suc-
cessful in getting the nostalgic touch
of Dickens times and Dickens charac-
ters into his current work, both as
actor and director.
The entire cast has evidently been
given the most careful consideration
in selection for all fulfilled the de-
mands a Dickens character could make.
The settings by Scott McLean and the
authentic furnishings by Fred Holmes
and Robert Farrell are beyond criti-
cism down to the last detail, even to
the chirp of the cricket, the fire on the
hearth and the steam from the hun-
dred-year-old copper kettle. Outstand-
ing among the actors are Will Vedder,
Grace Cooper, Bettye Hale, Crawford
Perks, Art Rivera, Ben Legere, Vera
Rothery, Geraldine Allan and Edna
Ellsmere.

San Francisco Famed for Good
Restaurants
The average San Franciscan does
not have to worry where he is going
to get his Christmas or New Year's
dinner. This city, from the day of the
pioneers, has been famed for it's restau-
rants, and chefs have come from differ-
ent parts of the world to serve the
meals that appeal to this city of epi-
cures.
And not only San Franciscans, but
visitors galore pay tribute to the dishes
one may obtain here. On these pages
will be found the addresses of many
eating places where one may dine and
wine to his heart's content for a reason-
able price.
The viands offered in San Francisco
ma}' not differ much from those in
other centers, but here their prepara-
tion has become the work of an artist.
There is skilled craftsmanship, testify-
ing to originality and initiative which
cannot do otherwise than awaken ad-
miration of the consumer.
You seldom have to travel for more
than a block in the business district to
find a restaurant which will cater to
your particular taste.

ABOVE is a picture of one of the four Hall-
xjL Scott powered Fageol Fire Trucks, re-
cently purchased by the San Francisco Fire
Department and assigned to the No. 7 Chemi-
cal Station at 315 Duncan Street.
Here we have a combination of the sturdy con-
struction for which Fageol have always been
known, and the power and dependability that
have been so characteristic of Hall-Scott heavy
duty truck motors.
These trucks, principally the product of two
well known local manufacturers, should ren-
der many years of fast, safe and efficient
service in protecting the homes and business
houses of San Francisco residents.
The four new San Francisco Fire Trucks are powered by
Hall-Scott Truck Engines, Model 176, having a 5*4 " bore,
6" stroke, and a displacement of 779.3 cubic inches.
