Don’t Miss The Va USE HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS GET RESULTS ANAHEIM VOL. VIII. SIX PAGES Now and Then By The Editor GIVE AND TAKE; UNSELFISH LIVES It is refreshing and gratifying to read and to know couples who have lived happily together for a period of sixty years. In these days of jazz, when everybody “steps on the gas” racing to divorce courts, it is good to have living examples of contented and happy married people who have proved that married life is a sacred privilege and a blessing if couples will only make it so. Wives of the past generation were helpers. They worked hard to aid their husbands in their work of accumulating the “old age account.” Working hard and bearing children, they had no time for gossip and idleness was not of their lot. There are many thousands of wives of this generation who are real helpers too, but we hear more of discontent and divorces now than we heard twenty or thirty years ago. When women cease playing to the gallery and play only to the man they married, there will be less of discon- NEW ATTRACTIONS WILL BE ON AT ORANGE SHOW THIS WEEK, ALSO NEW EXPANSION Thousands in Southern California Glad to Least Will Be Continued Three Days This Rain Does Not Deter Hundreds ADDITIONAL VAUDEVILLE NUMBERS WIDE OPEN BAR IN ANAHEIM SAY POLICE A big delegation of Los Angeles are to great Orange show That was sent out broadcaster the directors of the glare the continuance of the editors from South points who were special day heralded the news immediately.

WAR PROPAGANDA; SERIOUS CHARGES According to charges made in Washington last week, the United States followed the "bell-cow" of money as represented in "Big Business" when it went into the war. It is claimed that proof has been secured international bankers in the east right the policy of some twenty-five spapers in the country and began program for preparedness, with the main view of putting America into the war on the side of the allies. This charge may or may not be true, but we recall that the great Theodore Roosevelt was the first American who urged preparedness in White Plains, N.Y., when he addressed a group of soldiers at the invitation of General Leonard Wood. We recall also that General Wood was severely reprimanded by President Wilson for allowing Mr. Roosevelt to speak on preparedness. Any American citizen who followed the advice of Theodore Roosevelt never went wrong. Roosevelt was the most far-sighted man in America, and no one will say that he urged preparedness for the purpose of aiding international bankers who had dumped millions into the hands of France, Great Britain and Belgium. There are, of course, many newspapers in the United States that pay more attention to the cash till than they do to the good of mankind, but we doubt very much that any of them trafficked in dollars to get this country into the war. Things like that are easy to say but tremendously hard to prove. WIDE OPEN BAR IN ANAHEIM SAY POLICE Mexicans in Court Today Say Bought Wine at San Diego Bar Here TWO DRINKS FOR 25c Juan Hernandez will spend 30 days in the city jail. Pedro Maldamado and Martin Rodriguez will pay $10 to Justice Howard's court or spend 10 days in company with Hendandez. They were all charged in Justice Howard's court this morning with being drunk, intoxicated, under the influence of alcoholic beverage. According to testimony given to Justice Howard, the men declare they bought the beverage in the San Diego bar on Los Angeles street, where the stuff is sold quite generally, they say. One of the men was asked what it is that made the three men dunk, and he said it was a wine similar to port wine and that it sells for 15 cents per drink, whisky glass size, or two drinks for 25 cents. This has been going on, one or the men said, for a long time. Another young man from Orange, who was in court to answer to the charge of being drunk while driving an automobile, declared that he lived here last December and that the San Diego bar was selling the so-called wine at that time, openly and without fear apparently. According to Officer Andrada, the San Diego bar has been selling this wine for some time, but says there is no ordinance or law that will justify the city police in making an arrest. Assistant District Attorney Thompson who was here today stated that there is a county ordinance against the sale of wine, liquor or beer, but that it does not apply to incorporated cities. City Attorney Ames stated today but there is an ordinance, enacted more than a year ago, that makes it unlawful for anyone to sell wine, liquor or beer in the city or Anaheim. The identity of the drink that intoxicated the Mexicans above mentioned is not known, but the fact is known that it makes men drunk if they drink enough of it, is established. How long the traffic will be allowed to run remains to be seen.

WE'LL SAY THEY WONT Whether there are laws for the rich and laws for the poor will be determined in the case of James Stilman, who, according to sworn testimony in New York state courts, has been transporting women from one state to another, and not for Sunday school or church purposes. Word is now given out through the press that Stillman is planning to withdraw his divorce suit against Mrs. Stillman since the latter has apparently secured unimpeachable evidence that her husband has been leading an immoral life and doing illegal things. It is interesting to note that government agents have apparently passed up the case of Stillman in the matter of alleged violations of the white slave act. The law is very plain and it has worked successfully. There are probably some who would be glad to have the law repealed but we are of the opinion that there will not be a man in Congress for many years who will dare attempt to repeal the law or any part of it. It should not be said that "the rich can do no wrong" in the United States. Organized society will be better off if Stillman and men of his kind are compelled to spend a few years in the national "hoosegow." A man died after drinking bootleg whiskey to cure a snake bite. If he had given the bootleg whiskey to the snake before it bit him, he would probably have been able to bury the snake. ORANGE CO. REVIEW IS NEW PUBLICATION; WORK OF ART A magazine dedicated to the people and interests of Orange county, "nature's prolific wonderland," to the great state of California, "the land by the western sea," and to the United States, "God's most favorite country," the Orange County Review, published in Fullerton by the Orange County Review, has made its first appearance. Volume 1, number 1, makes its appearance for June, 1921. The magazine is a work of art and its pages are filled with meritorious articles by various well known writers. Editor Kirkpatrick has assembled a very creditable magazine for June, and if he keeps up the good work in all the months to come, success is assured. The magazine is printed on a high grade of book paper and typographical, the magazine is a thing of beauty. The opening announcement of the publishers is as follows: "With this issue the Orange County Review begins its life and labors in California's most promising field. "For many months the advisability of publishing a monthly magazine for Orange county was discussed, and everywhere assurance was given that the field is here, that there is work to be done. So today we take up our task with a hopeful heart and a determined will to make the Orange County Review what it friends expect it to be, a power for good in the pathway of progress and development." THE VALENCIA ORANGE SHOW HEIM DAILY HERE AGES ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, MONDAY, MAY 23, 1921 WE WILL BE PUT SHOW THREE DAYS GO NEW EXHIBITS Cornia Glad to Learn Show free Days This Week; Deter Hundreds LE NUMBERS SECURED A big delegation of people from Los Angeles are to visit Anaheim, great Orange show Tuesday. Work was sent out broadcast Saturday by the directors of the show announcing the continuance of the big show and the editors from Southern California points who were special guests Saturday heralded the news to their people immediately. The vaudeville program for tonight, Tuesday and Wednesday promises to be excellent. Some new numbers have been added to the bill, and the Harry Green orchestra will remain for the three days and for the Elks dance on Thursday night. FRANCE WILL NOT LET GERMANY GO INTO UPPER SILESIA PARIS, May 23—France will hold Germany responsible for the fighting in Upper Silesia, it was stated semi-officially here today. If the allies do not act to halt hostilities between the Poles and Germans, the situation will be serious, it was stated. Disregarding French protests, German volunteers by the thousands are pouring into Upper Silesia, the foreign office declared today. In some places free railway transportation is being offered to attract prospective fighters, it was reported. Heavy fighting was reported in progress around Kattowitz where three thousand German volunteers attacked Polish insurgents. The Poles had made a headquarters of Kattowitz and had encircled the city with troops. They were well armed. RAINFALL HERE IS 1.98 INCHES FOR FOUR DAY STORM Up to 7 o'clock this morning, the storm that hit Anaheim last Thursday had deposited 1.98 inches of rain in Anaheim, and 1.55-inchches of this amount came from 7 a.m. Saturday to 7 a.m. today, a total of 14.97 inches this season. While the rainfall has intereferred to some extent with the Valencia orange show, it is believed the attendance today, Tuesday and Wednesday will bring the total up to the hopes of the directors. The rain has played havoc with the hay and bean crops and it is quite likely, according to reports, that the bean crop will have to be replanted. Hay that has been cut is practically ruined. The citrus fruit and walnut growers are delighted with the rain, as well as beet growers. They declare it means thousands of dollars to them in crops and thousands in saving the caarge for irrigation. Weather reports indicate continued rain tonight and Tuesday. AGED MINING MAN ACCUSED OF FALSE Los Angeles are to visit Anaheim great Orange show Tuesday. Work was sent out broadcast Saturday by the directors of the show announcing the continuance of the big show and the editors from Southern California points who were special guests Saturday heralded the news to their people immediately. The vaudeville program for tonight, Tuesday and Wednesday promises to be excellent. Some new numbers have been added to the bill, and the Harry Green orchestra will remain for the three days and for the Elks dance on Thursday night. Southern California people are not afraid of rain. This was demonstrated yesterday when several thousand people from Los Angeles, Santa Ana and far north as Santa Barbara came to see the show that has caused so much talk. Long Beach has sent several hundred people to see the big show and reports indicate more are coming. Although the rain leaked through in some parts of the big tent, it did no damage to visitors. The water trickled down ropes into some of the booths, but booth holders took care of the situation and no damage has been done by water. Additional exhibits are being installed for the three days this week, and Manager Fraser stated today that Chairman Barnes of the entertainment committee has announced a "continuance performance of good vaudeville" and a "change of program daily." COUPLE INJURED WHEN AUTOMOBILE SKIDS; TURNS TURTLE Mr. and Mrs. Ray Walker of Huntington Beach were seriously injured late last night, on the boulevard near Capistrano, when their car overturned into the ditch. Due to the heavy rain, a segment of the high bank on the highway, slid toward the car. Mr. Walker, attempted to turn the car in order to avoid the landslide, but the car skidded, turning over. Mrs. Walker was pinned under the car, and her husband thrown some distance down the embankment. Both were taken to the community hospital in Santa Ana, and an X-ray this morning disclosed fractures of the pelvic bone and extensive bruises were also sustained. JAMAICA GINGER IS CAUSE; MAN HELD ON FELONY CHARGE DR. HARDING IS SUNDAY GUEST ORANGE SHOW Addresses Hundreds in Matter of Condition of Ex-Service Men ENJOYS OUR CLIMATE Despite the steady rain which soaked Southern California all day yesterday a good sized crowd was present at the California Valencia Orange show and enjoyed the sacred music program rendered by the famous marry Green orchestra and violin solos by Miss Antoinette Friend. Dr. George Tryon Harding, youngest brother of President Harding, was one of the big pulling cards who proved well worth hearing. He is a man of excellent appearance, being slight in build and keen in intellect. He was introduced at 3:15 by Herman Stern, president of the California Valencia show. Dr. Harding, after passing a witty crack on Southern California weather, saying it made him feel at home as in Ohio informed the audience that his talk would be entirely unofficial, as he was in no position whatever to talk officially or otherwise or his brother, the president, and that he would therefore, talk upon a subject about which he was well informed, medicine. Dr. Harding confined his talk to the welfare of the ex-service man, those who were in need of medical attention and assistance from the government, and explained the many disorders of the incapacitated soldier. The main point in his talk was to express the need for the education of the doctors and officials in the war risk insurance department to recognize the mental as well as the physical disorders of the ex-service man. Many mental disorders suffered by the ex-soldier are looked upon by the officials of the war risk department as laziness, when in reality the man is suffering from nervous shock which is just as serious as though he had lost a leg or an arm. The ex-army fruit and walnut growers are delighted with the rain, as well as beet growers. They declare it means thousands of dollars to them in crops and thousands in saving the charge for irrigation. Weather reports indicate continued rain tonight and Tuesday. AGED MINING MAN ACCUSED OF FALSE PRETENSE CHARGE Charged with embezzlement and obtaining money under false pretenses. J. W. O'Day, aged mining man, was given a hearing in the justice court in Santa Ana this morning. O'Day was first scheduled to appear for the preliminary last Tuesday, but it developed that he had employed two attorneys without informing either of the association. One attorney was in court at the time specified for the hearing. The other had appeared the day before and asked for a continuance which was granted. With this misunderstanding as a plea O'Day asked that the case be continued until Monday. O'Day is charged by Milton McMillan of Anaheim with embezzling $500. The complainant asserts that he gave O'Day the money to be turned over to Mr. and Mrs. James Hunter of Los Angeles to clear title to a mining claim near El Toro and that O'Day appropriated the money for his own use. The defendant denies the allegation and maintains that the $500 was his own money and that McMillian never gave him a cent. O'Day claims to have $30,000 tied up in mining interest near El Toro. WHISKEY BUSINESS INVADED LAST NIGHT Another "tour of inspection" by Officers Jackson, French, Thwing and Murillo over the northern part of the county last night resulted in an arrest of Chris Tryan of Olinda on a charge of distributing intoxicating liquors. The officers encountered a young man leaving Tryan's house, and according to Sheriff Jackson, he was "more or less tanked." It was found that he had two quarts of whiskey in his possession. Tryan's house was entered and a search was made. No liquor was found but the owner was arrested after he is said to have admitted giving the boy whiskey. He declared his intention last night, but JAMAICA GINGER IS CAUSE; MAN HELD ON FELONY CHARGE Paul Velasquez of Orange, a young garage worker, is in jail today, arrested on a charge of driving an automobile while under the influence of intoxicating liquor. It was Jamaica ginger, the young man said. His story is that he was coming to Anaheim in a car and at the turn coming from Santa Ana a man asked for a ride, and because it was raining hard Velasquez stopped his machine and brought the man in. He had some Jamaica ginger and offered some to Velasquez, who being cold and wet, took a drink. One drink brought on another and another and that's what started the trouble. Velasquez will be given a preliminary hearing Tuesday, May 31, and meanwhile he is being held in default of $1000 ball. ELKS TO HAVE BIG DANCE THURSDAY A. H. T. Osborne, penoptimistic chairman of the Anaheim Elks entertainment committee, has announced a dance at Pressel's hall Thursday evening, May 2, and here is the way he tells about it: "The big dance of the year. We were fortunate enough to secure Harry Green's famous orchestra to play for a dance for us on Thursday evening. May 26, in Pressel's hall. Each Elk is entitled to invite one couple. Admission $2 per couple." Green's orchestra is the one that has been furnishing such excellent music at the orange show. The main point in his talk was to express the need for the education of the doctors and officials in the war risk insurance department to recognize the mental as well as the physical disorders of the ex-service man. Many mental disorders suffered by the ex-soldier are looked upon by the officials of the war risk department as laziness, when in reality the man is suffering from nervous shock which is just as serious as though he had lost a leg or an arm. The examining physicians must come to recognize this affliction just the same as a physical disability, says Dr. Harding. Many ex-soldiers who previous to the war were husky fellows, full of energy, now find it impossible to do a good days work, Dr. Harding says. They claim they feel tired all the time and cannot develop enough energy to work. Dr. Harding claims those men are suffering from nervous shock in many cases caused by intensive training and intemperate expenditure of energy. These disorders and many others, equally as serious as the physical disability, must be recognized by the war risk board, and, he says, will be recognized as soon as the examining board becomes educated to these new disorders of the men who apply to them for assistance. This work is being carried on under the direction of General Sawyer of the war risk department and relief for the men suffering from functional disorders will soon be given proper attention. Dr. Harding is visiting relatives in Southern California and taking in the wonders of the Golden State. He expresses great pleasure at his reception by the California people and said he was impressed with the beauties of the state and the "climate." NEW YORK—Rain is supposed to be good for flowers, but the Flushing Garden Club has taken out $1,500 insurance to protect its flower show against rain. MILWAUKEE—Names is names, Mrs. Mae Packard was granted a divorce by Judge Ralsey after she characterized her husband as a "flivver."

While a band played a dirge, President Harding, with bowed head, walked slowly through the long aisles formed by 5,212 rough caskets containing the bodies of American golders brought home from France. The scene of the gloomy pier at Hoboken was very impressive as the chief executive passed down the ranks of flag draped coffins to the sombre beat of muffled drums. “There are a hundred thousand soldiers touching my own heart,” he said in his eulogy, “and I near the admon- MYSTERIOUS SLAYING Rosenbluth Said to be Guiltless of Murder of Major Crankhite of Army ACCIDENTALLY SHOT NEW YORK, May 23. — Roland Potlier, former soldier, has repudiated his "confession" that Captain Robert Rosenbluth ordered him to kill Major Alexander P. Cronkhite at Camp Lewis, Wash., October 25, 1918, according to the New York World today. This newspaper declared that Pothier, when interviewed at his home at Central Falls, declared that he accidentally shot Cronkhite in unloading his revolver and that Rosenbluth and nothing to do with it. Pothier said he had implicated Rosenbluth only after many days of questioning by department of justice agents and after he had been repeatedly threatened. It was also stated that Pothier, after having repudiated his confession to department of justice agents was taken secretly to a New York hotel, where Mrs. Cronkhite, mother of the dead man, urged him to tell the truth and not shield any one. Pothier is now working as a railroad brakeman and is at liberty on $10,000 ball. He is charged with involuntary homicide. Rosenbluth is at liberty on $25,000 ball, awaiting full investigation of the case. He is charged with murder. MISS VALENCIA TO BE AT FAIRYLAND WEDNESDAY NIGHT "Miss Valencia," the home-grown, home-made, home-thought motion picture in which Miss Tressa Strickland of Orange played the leading role, will be shown at the Fairyland Wednesday and Thursday nights, according to announcement by Manager Head today. In this picture with Miss Strickland are Misses Margaret Thomas and Marja Brown of Ananeim, and a While a band played a dirge, President Harding, with bowed head, walked slowly through the long stiles formed by 5,212 rough caskets containing the bodies of American golders brought home from France. The scene of the gloomy pier at Hoboken was very impressive as the chief executive passed down the ranks of flag draped coffins to the sombre beat of muffled drums. "There are a hundred thousand soldiers touching my own heart," he said in his eulogy, "and I near the admonition ringing there—this must not be again; this must not be again." After the speech, the president placed a wreath on the casket of Joseph W. Geiger of Hart, Mich., member of Company I, the 126th Infantry, who was the first American killed on German soil. "In the name of the republic/ he said, 'I bestow this tribute on the casket of the first American soldier to perish on the soil of the enemy.'" As he laid the wreath on the coffin the sad notes of taps sounded and the battalion of the 22nd infantry which formed the tin-hatted guard of honor, swapped to present arms. As Harding mounted the small rostrum after the review, the band played "Neer My God to Thee." Chaplains read a few verses of scripture. "These dead know nothing of our ceremony or our sentiment," said the president. "These bodies were but the clay tenements which contained the souls that lit the battle flame that sped on to accuse autocracy before the bar of eternal justice. We shall not forget them, though they lie in the homeland, or in the land crimsoned by their blood."
