ORANGE COUNTY SERVICE MEN ORGANIZE PRELIMINARY STEPS TAKEN TOWARD FORMATION OF A SOCIETY AT SANTA ANA THURSDAY Branch Chapter to be Established in Each City in the County.—Two Thousand Soldiers and Sailors Eligible to Membership. Orange county's two thousand soldier and sailor boys who served under the flag in the great war, have taken the first step toward the organization of a mutual benefit society to be known as the "Service Men's Association of Orange County." All those who were honorably discharged from the army and navy, whether they went to the front or only reached the training camp, are eligible to membership, but there is no room on the roll of honor for the conscientious objector. The constitution says: "No person, who upon claiming exemption on the ground of being a conscientious objector, has been assigned to agricultural or other civilian occupation, shall be eligible to membership." A meeting of returned soldiers and provided for by the following article in the constitution: "Whenever it may become advisable for this association to affiliate with some state or federal body organized for the same or similar purposes, a meeting of the central council shall be called, by a written notice, stating the purpose of the meeting to each member of the council. If the council by a two-thirds vote shall determine it to be for the best interests of the association to affiliate, it shall cause a ballot to be taken by all the members of the association, and if upon a canvass of this election it shall develop that a majority of the members of the association desire to affiliate, then the executive committee of the central council shall proceed to arrange such an affiliation." There are 275 men in Anaheim eligible to membership, and approximately 2000 in the county. The association will be a large one. OSTEOPATHIC SOCIETY ELECTS NEW OFFICERS Dr. Horace Howard is Secretary-Treasurer of the County Association. The Orange County Osteopathic association held an adjourned meeting at the office of Dr. C. L. Paine-Jackman of Orange recently to elect officers for the ensuing year. The new officers are: President—Dr. W. M. McMullen of Fullerton. Vice-President—Dr. Pearl Magill of Santa Ana Secretary-Treasurer—Dr. H. G. Howard of Anaheim. Trustees—Dr. C. L. Paine-Jack- honorably discharged from the army and navy, whether they went to the front or only reached the training camp, are eligible to membership, but there is no room on the roll of honor for the conscientious objector. The constitution says: "No person, who upon claiming exemption on the ground of being a conscientious objector, has been assigned to agricultural or other civilian occupation, shall be eligible to membership." A meeting of returned soldiers and sailors was held at Santa Ana Thursday night at which it was decided to organize. A constitution was adopted and delegates chosen to a central county council which will meet at Santa Ana tonight for the purpose of perfecting the organization. The delegates from the several towns are: Santa Ana—Louis A. Riehl, C. D. Swanner, Maurice Enderle, Russell Coleman, S. F. Dimmrock, F. C. Westgate, Elmer Whitson, James Magill of Garden Grove, Cornish Roehm of Balboa, S. M. Reinhaus, Floyd H. Mitchell, F. M. Dean, George Platt, R. S. Gittins and Dr. H. N. Brothers. Anaheim—Barney Stoffel, Frank E. Van Patton, Edwin Miller, E. E. Smith, Alex Huch, Ross Phegley and Fred Vermeulen. Orange—R. C. Burkett, W. O. Hart, William Kroener, H. Meehan, Claude Potter, H. C. Riggle, W. J. Woods. Fullerton—F. Strauss, J. E. Fenelon, I. D. Jaynes, W. C. Benchley, E. J. Marks. Four delegates from Huntington Beach and one additional for Anaheim are yet to be selected. Subordinate chapters of the association are to be established at once in the five cities of Santa Ana, Anaheim, Orange, Fullerton and Huntington Beach, and new chapters may be established elsewhere by twenty-five or more persons. The constitution adopted Thursday night declares the purpose of the association is: "To formulate and perpetuate comradeship and good fellowship between soldiers, sailors and marines who have been honorably discharged or furloughed to the reserve. "To encourage and maintain patriotism. "To safeguard the interests of soldiers and sailors, whether honorably discharged, furloughed to the reserve or still in the service. "To establish subordinate chapters within the county for the more efficient carrying out of the above pur- The Orange County Osteopathic association held an adjourned meeting at the office of Dr. C. L. Paine-Jackman of Orange recently to elect officers for the ensuing year. The new officers are: President—Dr. W. M. McMullen of Fullerton. Vice-President—Dr. Pearl Magill of Santa Ana Secretary-Treasurer—Dr. H. G. Howard of Anaheim. Trustees—Dr. C. L. Paine-Jackman of Orange, Dr.' Mabel V. Tremain of Santa Ana, Dr. W. L. Bigham of Anaheim, Dr. H. G. Carlin of Anaheim. The legislative committee reported that all the osteopathic bills had passed both houses of the legislature at the recent session except one, which the board of medical examiners had already adopted in principle. Of the three bills passed by both houses, the governor deliberately refused to sign the one removing discrimination against osteopathic physicians in spite of the fact that thousands of voters throughout the state requested him to approve the bill. The osteopathic physicians won in the legislature, but the arbitrary action of the governor now makes it necessary to go to the people themselves to get a just settlement of the matter. GETTING READY FOR THE BIG EVENT Orange County War Service Recognition association is the name adopted for the organization that is to conduct the big demonstration at Orange County park on September 9, Admission day, in honor of the returned soldiers of this county, and R. L. Bisby of Santa Ana, who was chosen chairman at the meeting in Anaheim on Memorial day, has appointed his executive committee as follows: Mrs. A. J. Lawton of Santa Anan. F. E. Hallman of Orange. J. F. Ahlborn of Anaheim. Maj. E. J. Marks of Fullerton. E. E. French of Huntington Beach. Elmer Jahraus of Laguna Beach. Mr. Bisby has appointed Jack Wallace of Santa Ana as secretary.

FIELD DEMONSTRATION The Orange County Farm Bureau will present two valuable field demonstrations in this county Tuesday, June 17. Dr. A. D. Shamel, bud selection expert of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, will pick out variety types, sport deviations, fruiting types and shade tree types of citrus trees and explain methods of top working. Citrus growers of the county are invited to attend either demonstration, and to lay their bud selection problems before this man, an authority upon his subject. At Yorba Linda the fruit growers will meet at Murray Horne's place and will visit two or three groves in the neighborhood. The hour set is 10 a.m. The meeting will start promptly on the hour. The La Habra meeting will be at George W. Beck's grove in the afternoon at 2:30. Nearly every orchard has one or more trees that are off type, or non-bearing and it is desirable to know what is best to do with such trees. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Dr. Shamel, who has spent years in investigational work in bud selection, will answer questions to the best of his ability. SITUATION IN MEXICO EMBARRASSES WASHINGTON Villa-Angeles Combination May Force Us to Take Notice. Once more, Mexico is in the turmoil of another revolutionary outbreak. It is but one of the constantly recurring troubles which beset the Carranza regime and keep the Mexican republic in well-nigh constant unrest or turbulence. Villa forces have proclaimed General Felipe Angeles as provisional president of Mexico and Villa himself as secretary of war. If there were doubts that the business is serious, they would be dispelled by the disclosure that the Carranza government has asked the United States for permission to move troops through Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. The State Department denied the request of the Carranza government on the ground that it must as a requisite have assurances that Americans will be protected while the troops are in transit. General Angeles is accounted one of the ablest military men in Mexico and this is another phase of the situation which, as many believe, points to a dangerous situation for the Carranza government. Moreover anti-American forces are active in the south of Mexico. It was Angeles who in the closing days of the Madero regime did much to uphold Madero and because of this came near losing his life at the hands MEETING OF CITY TRUSTEES (Continued from page 1) deed and present it to the city, he is turn to set his new building back that distance. His offer was accepted. Joe Bennerscheidt also agrees to move his property line back three feet in case a new building is put up to replace the old one now at the corner of Clementine and Center. Mr. Steward was given authority to purchase hay in carload lots from a man in McFarland who offers good alfalfa hay for $23.25 f. o. b. Anaheim. Bob Quarton asked for city water at his place on North street, but the board denied the request. No more water will be furnished outsiders. Marshal Wood was appointed a delegate to attend the convention to be held in Los Angeles, June 16-17, when the new motor vehicle laws will be explained by the framer of the bill. The convention will be attended by a large number of traffic officers throughout the state. A communication received from W. H. Whalen of the S. P. in reply to one sent him by Street Superintendent Steyard, stated that the company at present finds itself unable to make the necessary repairs in lowering its tracks across Walnut street to conform to the street grade. It seems the railway is very much up in the air and finances are short. The track is about 3½ feet above grade, but as the city has gotten along with it for some years past, the board thought they could worry along a little while longer. Attorney Ames was granted further time relative to the widening proceedings of the south side of West Center street between Los Angeles and Lem- General Angeles is accounted one of the ablest military men in Mexico and this is another phase of the situation which, as many believe, points to a dangerous situation for the Carranza government. Moreover anti-American forces are active in the south of Mexico. It was Angeles who in the closing days of the Madero regime did much to uphold Madero and because of this came near losing his life at the hands of Huerta. Another phase of the Mexican upheaval concerns the mandatory feature of the league of nations plan. If this becomes international law and Mexico seethes with revolutionary conflicts, then it is clear the league may call on the United States to step in and act as mandatory for Mexico. This would mean, of course, that the United States would have to send large armies into Mexico to restore order. Should the United States refuse, if asked by the league, to serve as mandatory for Mexico, the league would be dealt a body blow. On the whole, there are many large problems bound up with the latest outbreak of tribulation in unhappy Mexico. "Watchful waiting" so far as now indicated, will again be the chief reliance of this government. Because of the fact Carranza, after being fostered by the administration, played the game of Germany and bit the hand that fed him, there is a strong belief Angeles may be recognized. But should this be done, it would not, so far as now evident, insure restoration of order. LIQUID GAS Tustin center is to picnic on June 28; and at that time Prof. H. J. Quayle will talk on "Liquid Gas Fumigation." Farm Advisor Wahlberg has arranged an instructive and timely program for the day. Much is being said about liquid fumigation and the new schedule. Prof. Quayle will explain the new process and a new machine will be on exhibition showing how the gas is used in the field. The picnic is to be held on the Tustin school grounds under the grove of trees. Music will be rendered by the band. All citrus growers are invited to attend. This is a meeting of unusual tracks across Walnut street to conform to the street grade. It seems the railway is very much up in the air and finances are short. The track is about 3½ feet above grade, but as the city has gotten along with it for some years past, the board thought they could worry along a little while longer. Attorney Ames was granted further time relative to the widening proceedings of the south side of West Center street, between Los Angeles and Lemon. The board will meet in special session tonight to give the proposed improvement district further consideration. A communication has been received from Messrs. Emil and Walter Dreyfus of San Francisco protesting against the district, which includes their business block on the corner of Center and Los Angeles streets. A resolution was passed announcing that the board desired to purchase a motor in the open market. The same will be bought from the General Electric Company, of which firm Joseph Lieb is local agent. Vard Hannum suggested that a building inspector be appointed, but the board passed it up for the present. A bond in the sum of $500 from the Southern Counties Gas Co. was received and filed. The same is to cover any damage that may ensue during excavation of streets. The request of Mr. Bryly for an auto freight franchise went over, owing to request not being properly drawn. The street superintendent was empowered to sell gravel from the city plats at 15 cents per yard, the former rate of 10 cents being considered too cheap. Chairman Gibbs of the finance committee reported auditing bills in the amount of $8630.85, which were ordored paid... The following officers reports were received and filed: Marshal, license collections $321.25. Recorder, 22 cases, fines $155.00. The Treasurer reported a balance of $18,032.25 in the general fund. Total cash $24,632.50. Liberty bonds $8000. War Savings Stamps $834. Rate Collector's report: For light ... $2823.85 For water ... 1625.85 Total ... $4499.70 Delinquents collected— Light ... $154.70 Water ... 139.15 A contract was ordered drawn, leasing the lower room in the Hart building to a Japanese at $25, for a vegetable and fruit store, for a year, with a revocable clause, carrying a sixty day notice to vacate. Billy Knott acted as financial agent and has a $200 check to apply to the rent, which was ordered annexed. The salary raise of Miller to $150 per month went over to next meeting. Ordinance No. 352, forbidding the running of irrigation water over streets, was up for first reading. Ordinance No. 353, prohibiting the driving of animals or vehicles over or across the barriers placed on streets, while the same are being graded and oiled. These two ordinances were recommended by Street Superintendent Stewart. A few days ago a large truck was driven over a newly oiled street which mussed things up a lot. The board of supervisors has set Much is being said about liquid fumigation and the new schedule. Prof. Quayle will explain the new process and a new machine will be on exhibition showing how the gas is used in the field. The picnic is to be held on the Tustin school grounds under the grove of trees. Music will be rendered by the band. All citrus growers are invited to attend. This is a meeting of unusual consequence and is rich in its possibilities. KELLOGG REPORTED DEAD The name of Ernest Kellogg is carried in the casualty list reported today by the government. Kellogg has been carried as missing for several months and today's report gives official notice that he is dead. He has been carried on the list heretofore as missing in action. Kellogg was killed in the Argonne fighting at the time Nat Rochester lost his life. It was during the siege of the "Lost Battalion" that these two Orange county men were killed. It was believed until a few days ago that Kellogg had been blown to pieces. Ferris Snavely, who has been employed by John Cook at Anaheim, stated a few days ago that he saw Kellogg after he was killed and that death was due to a bullet wound in the head. Kellogg's grave has never been located by the government, and if Snavely is correct in his statement, the body of the Santa Ana hero lies in a grave in France under the name of some other man.

Price $2410. The Pacific Pipe Supply Co. bid was low for new 12-inch pipe, as follows: $66.80 per ton; the price for the 4-inch was $71.80 per ton, while fittings are $123.80 per ton. The board decided to purchase the new motor in the open market, which will cost about $1055. The total cost of the improvements at the water works will be between $9000 and $10,000. The Krough company agrees to rebuild the two old pumps now in use at the power house, which were bought from them by a previous board. Notice has been given that all lots must be cleaned of weeds. The plumbing inspector submitted his monthly report, showing collection of $60.80. The city electrician's collections totaled $35.95. The street superintendent's report showed many improvements being made, notably among which was the oiling of a number of streets.
