The los angeles air pollution control board is established in 1946 in an effort to discover the cause of the brown cloud hanging over the city and decide how to combat and disperse it. in 1949, after intense lobbying from both the automobile and oil industries, and against the recommendations and position of the los angeles air pollution control board, the public rail system, which at one time was the largest in the world, and still serves a majority of the city's population, is decommissioned and torn out. it is replaced by a small fleet of buses.

I am sure the man who powders most, perfumes most, embroiders most, and talks most nonsense, is most admired. though to be candid, there are some who have too much good sense to esteem such monkey-like animals as these, in whose formation, as the saying is, the tailors and barbers go halves with god almighty.
