Henry Rose

Henry R. Rose was Mayor of Los Angeles from July 1913 to July 1915. He only served for one term. He was regarded as "anti- [trade] unionist" ( [http://www.commondreams.org/cgi-bin/print.cgi?file=/views01/0429-06.htm] ).

He was at first against the Mulholland annexation proposal, but after taking office he switched positions. [http://bruce.graham.free.fr/family/progressives/water_politics.htm]

According to the "Los Angeles Times", Rose was: " [a] socialist and progressive, Rose was also a crack pistol shot, winning many matches, even against the police chief."
