The December 6 1923 Charleston Gazette rejects monopoly and cites the aluminum case and tariff issues. It notes the trade commission, the attorney general, and the secretary of the treasury amid pressure for a straightforward policy. It mentions Langley Wheeler sugar duty and New England protectionism, ending with a stray note on a Iowa State College radio invention.
The American Legion backs a universal draft style bill, reframed as national defense control, with provisions for drafting ages 21 to 30, government control of materials and services, and price stabilization. It argues centralized wartime power aids victory, notes no universal draft intended, and outlines a mobilization plan detailing which draftees and industrial plants fit into a war economy.
The piece argues that big business holds entrenched power in government, with federal agencies meant to curb privilege under its control. It cites a partisan vote by the federal trade commission and a press quote about cooperation with the justice department on investigating the Aluminum Company of America as a troubling instance of administrative partisanship and protection of industry.
In postwar commentary the Kaiser’s exile to Doorn is recalled as he secures a $7.5 million settlement and several castles after court success, offset by Germany’s dire finances under the Dawes plan. The piece criticizes his windfall, arguing the reward far exceeds his wartime misdeeds and moral standing. Old Man Heck quips about new telephones in Huntingtown.

A damaged, garbled report describes steamers replacing the Salmon fleet along the Bristol Channel coast. It notes vessels leaving port, speeds, and the presence of workers and notices about schedules. The text mentions passengers, front locations, and unnamed authorities coordinating the maritime transition amid uncertain dates.
Santa Monica notes reveal the Majibu pines parcel near the coast to be subdivided for homes. The long history traces to the 19th century land grants and the Rindge family, whose battles to protect the Pacific shore led to rail and highway disruptions and ongoing legal fights over 18,000 acres, beaches, and development plans.
An account details Hollywood's transformation from a sparsely settled area to a center of film production. It notes Me Wilcox's real estate influence, early studio ventures around Los Angeles, and the shift of the industry from New York to the West Coast.
