(I Thursday evening, May 11, will be known as "Candi­

dates' Night," according to pres­ ent plans of the board of direc­ tors of the oiganization.

"All candidates for public of fice will be invited to attend," stated 1'residenl Fred Pymm, "and will be allowed two min­ utes to present his case. It may cost each candidate $1 a min­ ute for evciy minute consumed over the allotted t,wo minutes." This meeting holds promise of being the liveliest meeting of the organization so far this year.

During -August, Bell and May- wood will be host cities to the member cities belonging to the Harbor District Chambers of Commerce, it w«f stated, and elaborate plans are now being made to make this "home-coin ing" meeting in honor of PrcFi dent Fled Pymm a huge suc­ cess. Time and meeting place wil be announced later.

It was unanimously agreed by the directors present last Fri­ day evening. April 28, meeting in the conference room of the Compton Chamber of Commerce, that the oiganization go on rec­ ord as strongly urging the re­ tention of Eric Johnston as head of the United States Chamber of Commerce, which organization he now directs, and the secre­ tary was instiucted to write a letter to the proper authority in Washington, D. C., to that effect.

Present at Friday's meeting of the board of directors were:

Demo Support"His nomination by both Re-

publican and Democratic parties arul hi.s election as United States Senatni at the primary May 16 Is strongly indicated for William O. Bone.v member of the state board of equalization from the fourth district, by the endorse­ ment of his candidacy by the California Assembly of Demo­ crats," said Cecil Cascy, secre­ tary of that organization, today.

A recently publicized state­ wide survey of the opposition's strength by this Democratic group shows that Bonelli has won Republican favor by a wide margin. A clean sweep of both the major party tickets by Bon­ e-Ill has been freely predicted for some time by Individual ob­ servers but this is I he first of­ ficial sign of Bonelli's complete victory.

An an educator, civic leader and public official for more thai20a large

Bonelli has attracted peisonal following, whose

loyalty has been cemented by their confidence in his Integrity and his stern devotion to Amer­ icanism rather than to partyism.

Issue Clear, States Darby

Mayor- Raymond V. Darby of Ingle-wood told the League of Women Voters in the Kedondo Beach city hall that the issue in his campaign for supervisor of the fourth district was clear.

The incumbent supervisoi has stated, without qualification, Darby said, that I lie cities of his. district arc gelt inn all they reasonably can expect from the gas tax funds.

"Such things as Hothe

"The opposition against How­ ser has been reduced to impo­ tence as, point by point, the uninformed basis upon which they sought election to this im­ portant post has been.exposed. They now merely parrot How- ser's platform, offering nothing original that hasn't already been fully covered by Howser, not only in his statements of policy, but from the more real basis, of actual deeds in support of such policy." _ ^ _ _
