LOS ANGELES BOASTS
v OF MORE TRAFFIC THAN
FAMOUS LONDON BRIDGE
LOS ANGELES, July 25 (by Asso
ciated Press).—London bridge no
longer can claim the distinction of
being the densest center of traffic in
the world, according to traffic experts
of the Los Angeles railway, who have
been studying conditions here. More
vehicles—street cars, automobiles,
wagons and carts—they say, pass the
intersection of Ninth and Main streets,
in this city, per hours, than in any ;
other street in the world.
A recent inquiry said to have been
conducted in London showed that the
average run of vehicles over London
bridge was 1,497. This included all
classes of vehicles, from the motor;
tram to the horse-drawn truck and
the coster donkey cart.
In order to determine just where
Los Angeles stood from the point of
1 dense traffic, and to have figures for
the study of traffic experts later on,
A the Los Angeles railway established
* a checking station at Ninth and Main
'streets and found that at a given hour
1.627 vehicles, most of which were
motor-driven, passed the corner. This
is 138 in excess of the London bridge
traffic figures for the same length of
time.
BOLSHEVIST REGIME
FORCES HUNGARIAN
WOMEN TO WORK
LONDON, June 20 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—Of all the suf
ferers from the Bolshevist regime in
Hungary, the women he saw were the
most unhappy, according to H. H.
Brailsford, a well-known British jour
nalist.
He says that during his stay there
he met a good many aristicrats who
were obliged to work for the first time
in their lives.
“Some were certainly angry,” he
went on. “and a few were tearful. It
may have been chance, but the ma
jority of those whom I happened to
« meet, especially the women, were re
markably spirited, and even gay.
“I sat once in a drawing room in
which each lady in turn began to re
count her experiences in getting work.
Most had succeeded. Most had met
with courtesy and helpfulness. These
ladies seemed amusingly proud to dis
cover that as linguists, teachers or mu
sicians they had a value, and a rather
high value, in the labor market.
“The women in this company were
much happier than the men, obvi
ously because the revolution had
emancipated them and ended a some
what idle and useless existence.”

sociated Press).—A letter bearing
what is believed to be the only au
thentic signature of King Ferdinand
of Spain—co-patron with Queen Isa
bella of the expedition of Columbus
to the new world—that is extant in
this country, forms one of the most
important additions to the collections
of the Historical Society of New Mex
co. The letter is written to his cousin,
the Duke of Infantazzo.

ments for the approaching marriage
of the king’s niece and the duke’s son.
The letter concludes:
“Everything is already prepared for
the wedding, including the money
which is to be given the said court
as agreed.”
The signature affixed is Ferdinand’s
famous “Yo, El Rey” (“L, the King”).
