Gone to Los Angeles. . . Col. And Mr. R.W. Lassiter Enjoys Pacific Resorts

In a letter to the Public Ledger, Mr. R.W. Lassiter, who, with Col. William Lassiter, are spending some time at the Westgate Hotel, Los Angeles, Calif., says among other things:

“This is a wonderful climate—at times too warm in the sunshine. Last Saturday I motored with a Pasadena merchants 10 miles along the Pacific to San Diego, a distance of 40 or 50 miles, and to Corando and into Mexico just over the border to Tijuana, where race course and gambling houses of every description abound. The concession is owned by Americans, mostly New York sporting men. I never saw anyt5hing like it before.”
