USE HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS GET RESULTS ANAHEIM VOL. VIII. EIGHT PAGES AN Now and Then By The Editor THE WAY IS CLEAR; WARSHIPS vs. FRIENDSHIPS. We all recall how in some of the Southern states years ago family feuds flourished. Over the slightest misunderstanding or breach of friendship, families used to arm themselves and annihilate each other as rapidly as possible. Passion burst into hatred, hatred developed into murder. Such feuds are practically unknown in America today, because education has dethroned ignorance. It is our fixed and unalterable opinion that the United States should lead the world in building friendships instead of warships. A warship is a chip on the shoulder of every nation that owns one. The sight of the monster battleship is a chip on the shoulder which says, "get fresh with me and see what happens." The world is hungry for friendship. There are too many international feuds. Science has developed a thousand times more rapidly in the world than has international understanding. Scientists have developed great things in the past generation, while the people have taken a step backward. With the air conquered, wireless telegraphy and wireless telephony starting the "OLD GUARD" BATTLES WITH CONGRESS THAT WOULD CONFINE PACKERS FOR GOOD OF FAIR Believed President is Friendly to Group Who Regulate Packers and Make Farming Industry Come Into Its Own BELIEVE HARDING WILL VETO PACK CLUBWOMEN ARE IN FAVOR OF DISARMING President Given Ovation as She is Installed Into Office Today WASHINGTON. May Harding soon will be decide whether the legislature of the "old guard" or the group in congress regain vitality affecting the supply are to prevail as his administration. These measures are elating grain exchange, by the house, and packer isolation, now being considered lower branch of congress. Opponents of this citation, mainly the "old guard", conflicts directly with the theory of less government. The world is hungry for friendship. There are too many international feuds. Science has developed a thousand times more rapidly in the world than has international understanding. Scientists have developed great things in the past generation, while the people have taken a step backward. With the air conquered, wireless telegraphy and wireless telephony startling the world, we are still in the dark ages in the matter of securing the safety of the peoples of the world against warfare. The brains of the world are over-developed in science, top-heavy in invention and woefully lacking and under-developed in self-preservation. Nearly all of the most recent inventions of man have been diverted to useages of war instead of peace. The airship has been put in the class of war machines, and wireless communication has followed the same course. There must be some great world leader, some great thinker who can at the world to thinking peace, a woman or a woman who will command army of Friendship against the city of Warships. Building international friendships will make warships unnecessary. We read with unbounded pleasure that Great Britain and Japan are sincerely delighted to learn that the Borah amendment to the navy appropriations bill in congress has passed, authorizing the President to call a navy holiday conference with British and Japanese officials. We hope their program will follow the text of "Friendships versus Warships" and that the former will win. PECULIAR ATTITUDE; BIBLE INTERPRETATION. Southern California had a peculiar "kick" in the newspapers yesterday when it was learned that three men living near Orange had buried hundreds of dollars worth of food stuffs because one of them, an ex-minister, entertains the belief that there will be a three-year drought in the near future and that food will be scarce and eventually unobtainable. He based his belief upon passages in the Holy Bible. We are at a loss to understand how President Given Ovation as She is Installed Into Office Today RICE DAY · JUNE 11TH CAMP CURRY, Yosemite Valley, Cal., May 28.—A resolution urging President Harding to call an international conference of representative powers to consider world reduction of armaments, was approved today by the Callofnria Federation of Women's Clubs in session here. The passage of this resolution released the deadlock which came as a result of objections to certain phrasing of the resolution as originally drafted. Newly elected officers were installed at the morning session. The new president, Mrs. W. A. Fitzgerald of Berkeley, received a tremendous ovation. "Rice day," June 11, was set as the official rice holiday for members of the federation. Each member agreeing to buy and consume five pounds of the California cereal. The importance of conserving the forests, an important consideration in hydro-electric generation, was urged by Francis J. Heney of Los Angeles in the closing address. "It if the forests are preserved and replenished there is no limit to hydro-electric development," declared Heney. "With coal and oil deposits becoming lower, electricity is the heat and power of the future." ALSIP CALLED HOME DEATH OF BROTHER Evan S. Alsip, of the staff of book-keepers at the First National bank of Anaheim telegraphed the bank today from Imperial announcing the death of his brother, following an operation virtually affecting the supply are to prevail as his administration. These measures are relating grain exchange, by the house, and packing isolation, now being considered lower branch of congress. Opponents of this citation, mainly the "old guild conflicts directly with the theory of less government." The bills give wide power department of agriculture trading on the grain earmarking the business of the pack. The new farmer group, sponsor of the never claims Harding to the interests of the faction denced by his approvalgency tarill bill. So far the president pressed his opinion directly.

ANAHEIM PACK HOUSE BEGIN PACK FOR Tests were made yes new packing house of Citrus Fruit Association the county road at the specific tracks, just west o The house is pronoun most up-to-date in the cally all of the machiinstalled. Today it is expected ing can be started coverthe season. With this old house the association to pack eight to ten ca when it was learned that three men living near Orange had buried hundreds of dollars worth of food stuffs because one of them, an ex-minister, entertains the belief that there will be a three-year drought in the near future and that food will be scarce and eventually unobtainable. He based his belief upon passages in the Holy Bible. We are at a loss to understand how a man of mature years, a student apparently of the Holy Bible, can assemble a line of thought that would lead him to such belief and action. The food buried by this man and his two followers would not last ten days, and if hungry neighbors were to learn of its existence, it wouldn't last two hours should a famine exist. It is true that Providence has a hand in everything, and it may be that some day there will be a drought on this continent. We can't see it, however, since science has learned how to extract salt from the ocean. If the seas dry up and blow away, we are apt to have a long dry spell. There is a great drought among some people in the United States today. Perhaps that is what the passage in the Bible refers to and that our neighbor in Orange has misjudged it. If that ex-minister and his two companions leave that food under the ground until this continent experiences a three-year drought, their great, great grandchildren's great, great grandchildren may some day find a deposit of ancient food, too ancient to be of any use to mankind except as a relic of the days "When Jazzhood was in Flower." In your enjoyment of the holiday Monday, don't forget to set aside a while for silent appreciation of those who fought your fight. If you are happy, go to church tomorrow. If you are unhappy, go twice. ALSIP CALLED HOME DEATH OF BROTHER Evan S. Alsip, of the staff of bookkeepers at the First National bank of Anaheim telegraphed the bank today from Imperial announcing the death of his brother, following an operation for appendicitis, yesterday. Mr. Alsip was called to the home of his parents early in the week when his father and brother were both found to be in condition making it necessary to operate for appendicitis. The father, according to the telegram, though apparently recovering from the operation, is still in serious condition. The Alsip family came to California from Kentucky several months ago to make their home. Evan S. Alsip has been with the First National bank here about six months.

HEIM DAILY HER ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, SATURDAY, MAY 28, 1921 LES WITH GROUP WOULD CONTROL GOOD OF FARMERS ly to Group Who Want to Make Farming Industry Its Own L VETO PACKER BILL WASHINGTON. May 28—President Harding soon will be forced to decide whether the legislative theories of the "old guard" or the new farmer group in congress regarding two bills vitally affecting the nation's food supply are to prevail as the policy of his administration. These measures are the bill regulating grain exchange, already passed by the house, and packer control legislation, now being considered in the lower branch of congress. Opponents of this class of legislation, mainly the "old guard," claim it conflicts directly with the president's theory of less government in business. Makes Heart Beat Fast This little girl is one of the wards of the Children's Home Society of California, at Los Angeles. Next Saturday, June 4th, a "Heart Day" drive will be conducted in Anaheim, under the leadership of Mrs. J. P. Brastad. Funds received in this drive will be devoted to caring for the orphaned and abandoned children in the home of the Children's Home Society of California. Many of these children are adopted by big hearted people of California. There is no charitable work being conducted anywhere in the world that is doing more good than the Children's Home Societies in various states and California's society is doing great good. MEMORIAL DAY IN ANAHEIM MONDAY; SEEKS DAMAGES IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT vitally affecting the nation's food supply are to prevail as the policy of his administration. These measures are the bill regulating grain exchange, already passed by the house, and packer control legislation, now being considered in the lower branch of congress. Opponents of this class of legislation, mainly the "old guard," claim it conflicts directly with the president's theory of less government in business. The bills give wide powers to the department of agriculture to regulate trading on the grain exchanges and the business of the packers. The new farmer congressional group, sponsor of the measures, however, claims Harding is friendly to the interests of the farmers, as evidenced by his approval of the emergency tarill bill. So far the president has not expressed his opinion directly or indirectly. It appears that both bills can be passed through congress, but it is certain that thereafter the "old guard" and the farmer congressmen will engage in a vigorous "tug of war" to swing the executive to their respective side. Representatives of the packers here now are claiming that Harding is certain to veto the packer control bill. They have in large measure ceased their previously strong fight against the bill. ANAHEIM PACKING HOUSE BEGINS TO PACK FOR SEASON Tests were made yesterday at the new packing house of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association, located on the county road at the Southern Pacific tracks, just west of Anaheim.

With this house and the old house the association will be able to pack eight to ten cars a day.

He was brought to the county jail and is waiting now for his arraignment. With Chun in the car were his Mexican wife, and their grand-daughter. The more trouble the allies have at home, the greater Germany's conviction that she can't possibly pay that bill.

TELLING IT TO WOMEN FOLKS New York High School Director Says Going Generation is Wrong GIRLS ON RIGHT TACK NEW YORK, May 28.—It’s not the coming generation, but the going generation that needs watching, according to H. H. Wright, director of organization in New York high schools. Wright was asked by the United Press today for his views concerning the “menace” of short skirts and rouge for students. “Short skirts and rouge,” he echoed, “why that’s old stuff! New York school girls aren’t doing it any more. “Girls here aren’t tucking up their dresses, rouging their cheeks, reddening their lips and touching up, their eyebrows. It’s only the old women trying to fool Father Time who are still doing that. If the reformers want to start lengthening women’s skirts they can begin with the old women, because the real girls don’t have to do it.” WATCH FOR MAN WHO BELIEVED STOLE FORD AUTO Authorities are keeping on the lookout here for a man giving his name as Francis X.
