PLAN TO ABANDON CONSERVANCY DISTRICT THREE SOUTHERN COUNTIES PROPOSE TO MAINTAIN AN INFORMAL TRI-COUNTIES ASSOCIATION. Old Plan Would Jeopardize Water Rights.—New Organization Will Carry On Flood Control and Water Development on Santa Ana River. Because it is feared that the organization of a conservation district of portions of San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange counties would jeopardize water rights, the plan for organizing a conservancy district is practically abandoned. At least, it is abandoned so far as the committee of fifteen appointed by the boards of supervisors of the three counties is concerned. It is proposed in its stead to maintain an informal tri-counties association for the purpose of carrying on flood control and water development work along the Santa Ana river, this association to receive an annual appropriation from each of the three counties. The question as to whether or not these appropriations can be made is a question that was passed to the district attorney of Orange county. The same question is to be submitted to the district attorney of Riverside and supervisors of each of the three counties would agree to give a sum of money each year to the work. He suggested $10,000 for each county for the first year. If the work progressed satisfactorily and the counties believed they were getting their money's worth, appropriations could be increased. If a county at any time felt that it was not gaining anything, it could draw out of the agreement. The upshot of the conference of the committee of fifteen was that it was decided to ask the board of supervisors of each county to get an opinion from its district attorney as to whether or not Col. Finley's plan is legally feasible. It is expected that District Attorney West of this county will render a decision within two weeks. PROLIFIC ORCHARD AT LOS ALAMITOS Frank Walton Growing 121 Varieties of Fruit in His Garden. Frank W. Walton, Los Alamitos, may eat from his family orchard a different fruit every day in the harvest season, July to January, and have enough varieties left over to satisfy a versatile palate for several weeks thereafter. By dint of industry and study, he has developed trees bearing 121 varieties of fruits. He is one of the most attractive and best kept orchards in Southern California and is well worth a visit. While connected with the Los Alamitos Sugar Company, Mr. Walton, ten years ago, selected ten lots in the townsite, built a house, and proceeded to lay out a garden after his own ideas tri-counties association for the purpose of carrying on flood control and water development work along the Santa Ana river, this association to receive an annual appropriation from each of the three counties. The question as to whether or not these appropriations can be made is a question that was passed to the district attorney of Orange county. The same question is to be submitted to the district attorneys of Riverside and San Bernardino counties. The plan for the organization of a district which was fathered years ago by the Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee, and upon which members of that association have been working for years and in furtherance of which special legislation was secured was knocked in the head in an hour or two at a meeting at Riverside. A few weeks ago there was a mass meeting in this city of persons interested in flood control and conservation of water in relation to the Santa Ana river. At that meeting it was decided to have the plan for the formation of a conservancy district left in the hands of a committee of fifteen five to be appointed by each of the boards of supervisors. The board of supervisors of Orange county appointed Col. S. H. Finley and Attorney H. C. Head of Santa Ana, George Dierker of Orange, John Dunstan of Tustin and W. T. Wallop of Anaheim as this county's representatives. This committee attended the meeting of the committee of fifteen at Riverside. Harry Hale of Placentia, representing the Anaheim Union Water Company, and A. N. Saxton of Orange, representing the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company, also attended the meeting. The attitude of the Orange county delegation was quickly expressed. It was declared that the formation of a shoestring district would complicate water rights considerably. The plan for developing water would not benefit the water users of Orange county in proportion to what it would the upper districts. While realizing the importance of the work, the Orange county committee was in favor of doing the work in some other way thereafter. By dint of industry and study, he has developed trees bearing 121 varieties of fruits. He is one of the most attractive and best kept orchards in Southern California and is well worth a visit. While connected with the Los Alamitos Sugar Company, Mr. Walton, ten years ago, selected ten lots in the townsite, built a house, and proceeded to lay out a garden after his own ideas he reached out far and near for trees, and propagated some of the fruit himself. He is still producing new fruits by cross pollenization and by grafting. In the Walton garden are found, among others, the following varieties: Pears—Beurre d'Anjou, Beurre Boso, Beurre Clairgeau, P. Barry Improved, Winter Bartlett, Duchess d'Angoulême; Winter Nelis, Kieffer, Winter Seckel, Walton No. 1 and Walton No. 2. Apples—Bellflower, Delicious, Pearmain and Banana. Grapes—Black Damson, Ton Walton and Persian Karum. Figs—Black Mission, Black Spanish and Salimyrna. Pomegranates—Sweet-Fruited and Wonderful. Persimmons—Hachiya and Arkansas Quince—Knotty and Bellflower Strawberry Guava. Mr. Walton is especially elated over his Bellflower quince, Black Damson grape and a pear of his own production which he has named the Walton No. 1. By pollenizing an ordinary quince from a Bellflower apple and planting the seed of the resultant fruit, he has a quince that is of exceptional flavor and which can be used much like an apple. It is of handsome appearance, rich golden yellow, and very large. The quince is now 5 years old, and bore the second year. This year it bore 150 fruit on a single tree. The Walton pear is the result of nine years of work. Mr. Walton pollenized a Seckel pear from a Kieffer, and planted the seed of the resultant fruit. He then grafted it to a quince to hurry it along. His Black Damson grape came from Persia, and produces fruit of a wonderful flavor for the Christmas table. He ties the bunches with oiled paper to keep off the moisture and the birds. The Karum is an excellent "slip skin" grape. This orchardist's pomegranates do thereafter. By dint of industry and study, he has developed trees bearing 121 varieties of fruits.

It was declared that the formation of a shoestring district would complicate water rights considerably. The plan for developing water would not benefit the water users of Orange county in proportion to what it would the upper districts. While realizing the importance of the work, the Orange county committee was in favor of doing the work in some other way rather than by entering a conservancy district with a complicated system of assessments. The legal advice from the attorneys of the water companies was in favor of fighting shy of entering into a district that might be much easier to get into than out of. The San Bernardino delegation also took a view that was not strongly in favor of the district plan. The sentiment of the delegation was to the effect that San Bernardino might find itself better off if water rights are left as they are instead of entering into a district that might decide to distribute a lot of the water further down the stream. Riverside's delegation, led by Francis Cuttle was strongly for the district. S. H. Finley of Santa Ana said that he believed that the most feasible plan of getting action in flood control would be for the association of fifteen to be continued and put in charge of doing whatever flood control work in the way of spreading of waters placing check dams, etc., that can be done with whatever sums of money that may be put at its command. He said that he believed that the WANT DRAINAGE DISTRICT That the farmers of Buena Park and Cypress want drainage was evidenced Monday night when the Farm Center instructed its chairman to appoint a new committee of three members to thoroughly investigate the needs of the communities involved and report to the next meeting. The committee will look into costs and make recommendations as to which law to operate under if a district is to be formed. A healthy discussion was entered into by the property owners and members of the Farm Bureau. Mr. Bastady said: "We know we need drainage, but we want more information about costs and systems so the people may know what they are entering into." Mr. Covell thought that a Farm Bureau committee ought to meet with ANAHEIM GAZETTE the Artesia Farm Center to put the proposition up to it. "Their land needs drainage worse than ours and they will eventually have to drain into Coyote Creek," he said. "By working together and sharing expense in dredging this creek, our drainage expenses will be appreciably lowered." "FOR GOD AND COUNTRY!" A Columbus Day sermon to the K. of C. by Bishop Kelley of Savannah. To me there had never been a doubt as to the ultimate result of the war. My belief and confidence in a just and merciful God convinced me that Germany would be defeated, but I am free to admit that never for a moment did I anticipate the result which followed the overthrow of the German military system. Today there is hardly a government in Europe where the Socialists do not control affairs, and Socialism means a denial of any right of God in the matter of the conduct of human affairs. No political order ever has been, or can be, based on Sosialistic ideas. And these principles are finding their way into the United States. Here the same spirit is exhibited in the disregard for law and order and the orderly and lawful conduct of our civil affairs. For you the duty is plain. As our boys stood shoulder to shoulder and fought despotic rule over there, you should stand shoulder to shoulder here in support of law and order, and always and everywhere oppose mob rule or any other kind of disorder. The constitution and law are your guide. Always and everywhere be found on the side of law and order. The Kai LEGION POSTS AGAINST JAPS IN IMPERIAL Non-Resident Valley Ranchers to Be Urged to Sell on Easy Terms to 100 Per Cent Americans. "One hundred per cent Americanism" is finding a new application in Imperial Valley. There was a joint session of the five posts of the American Legion, which represent the growing strength in El Centro of that order, and in forceful language the young Americans declared themselves against the surrender of the State industrially to the Asiatics. Several lines of action were discussed, but it was left to the future to determine just what shall be done. It was made evident, however, that it will be the policy of the Legion not only to proceed in aid of legislation, but that steps will be taken against the property owners who rent their land to Japanese and Hindus. It is expected that those land owners will be listed and given to understand that their policy is resented as un-American. The Japanese menace in this valley is growing steadily. Not only has a large portion of the land passed under Japanese control through leases, but the policy of the Japanese in boycotting American business men is throwing the members of their race, especially in Brawley, a large portion of the trade of the valley, and year by year they are acquiring new industries in preparation for the time when they hope to hold that valley as a Japanese colony. Most of the land which is rented to this race is owned by non-residents, HOTEL VALENCIA Modern in Every Respect Finest Hotel in Orange County Accommodations Unsurpassed By any hotel in the Southland and prices reasonable.

ANTI-KISSING LAW MAYOR IS RE-ELECTED Hottest Riverside Campaign Won by Dr. Horace Porter, ex-Pastor, Over L. Evans by 404 Votes. Dr. Horace Porter, former pastor of the First Congregational church and famous as the author of an anti-kissing ordinance, will continue to be Mayor of Riverside for another two years. Official returns of Tuesday's election have been compiled and showed that Mayor Porter had won over Lyman Evans, for twenty years County District Attorney, by 104 votes. The total vote was 4700. but the policy of the Japanese in boycotting American business men is throwing the members of their race, especially in Brawley, a large portion of the trade of the valley, and year by year they are acquiring new industries in preparation for the time when they hope to hold that valley as a Japanese colony. Most of the land which is rented to this race is owned by non-residents, who apparently are utterly indifferent to the future of this section, provided they are able to draw revenue from it without effort on their part. Because of this practice there already are sections so colonized with Japanese that social conditions make it impossible for white families to reside in those particular districts, and step by step the Asiatics are invading new areas with the same generally blighting effect on American institutions. It has become evident, however, that this is not to be tolerated much longer. In parts of the valley farm center organizations are taking up the subject, and they are determined to prevent the introduction of the Japs into their districts. This is notably the case at Seeley, Mount Signal and other points on the west side. But the action of the American Legion is on a broader scale. There are posts at Calexico, Holtville, El Centro, Imperial and Brawley, and one is being organized at Calipatria. These red blooded young Americans are united in their determination that the valley shall be purged of this evil. Instead of striking their hardest blows at the Japs themselves, they will impeach the patriotism of the Americans who are responsible for the condition, and it is believed that when the land owners find ostracism by Young America facing them, they will quit showing a preference for Japanese over their own countrymen. These land owners, who will not work their own farms, excuse their policy on the ground that there is a lack of American tenants. It is true they can squeeze more dollars out of the Japs than they can out of Americans, and it also is true that the Americans generally wish to own their own farm homes, and the true course of the land owners, it is gen- Dr. Horace Porter, former pastor of the First Congregational church and famous as the author of an anti-kissing ordinance, will continue to be Mayor of Riverside for another two years. Official returns of Tuesday's election have been compiled and showed that Mayor Porter had won over Lyman Evans, for twenty years. County District Attorney, by 104 votes. The total vote was 4700. The campaign was the hottest ever waged here, Mr. Evans having been nominated largely by returned service men who were not in sympathy with the so-called "kissless" regime which they said had been instigated by the city government. The Mayor defended himself by saying that the "kissless" ordinance had been abolished several months ago. This law about which so much controversy has raged in Riverside provided that "No kissing nor spooning should be done in the streets and parks or on the sidewalks of the city." FIND DEAD BODY AT ALAMITOS BAY Body Did Not Appear to Have Been Washed Onto the Beach. The body of a man between 40 and 45 years of age, and weighing 140 pounds, was found on the beach at Alamitos bay Saturday morning at 10:20 o'clock. Tite man was lressed in a blue serge suit. His pockets were empty. There were no marks of violence. These land owners, who will not work their own farms, excuse their policy on the ground that there is a lack of American tenants. It is true they can squeeze more dollars out of the Japs than they can out of Americans, and it also is true that the Americans generally wish to own their own farm homes, and the true course of the land owners, it is generally held here, is to sell the land to young Americans on easy terms if they do not wish to work it themselves rather than help surrender America to the Asiatics. The after-war period has brought labor difficulties which the farmer feels very definitely, and so great is the expense of operation that even with present high prices, there is not a great margin of profit except where farming is done on a moderate scale, and the land owners have for this reason been the more ready to rent their land to Japanese, even though the intolerable social condition drove his neighbor off his own land. But the American Legion boys believe they will be able to rectify this condition by making life intolerable for the Americans who so lease their land, and their influence will reach every part of the valley. People living in the vicinity heard three shots fired that night. The body did not appear to have been washed onto the beach. These circumstances, together with the absence of money on the corpse, indicate that murder may have been the cause of death. WILL ISSUE BONDS To secure funds to carry out development projects made necessary by the hydro-electric situation in Southern California, the Southern California Edison has applied to the Railroad Commission for authority to issue bonds to the amount of $7,500,000. Of this amount $1,842,000 is to be used to reimburse the company for expenditures already made for the construction, completion, extension and improvement of its facilities and for the improvement and maintenance of its service. The balance is to be expended from time to time as the needs of the company demand. It is proposed to sell the bonds at not less than 93 and interest. They are to be listed as general and refunding mortgage 6 per cent, 25-year gold bonds of the series of 1919. In a supplemental petition filed by the Edison Company the Commission is asked to amend a previous order so as to permit an exchange of debentures at par for bonds at 97, the amount involved totaling $1,977,000.

HISTORY OF CALIFORNIA TOLD Plans of Spain, England and Russia, to add the present state of California to their empires during past centuries are outlined in the course of history given by Charles E. Chapman, Associate Professor of Latin-American and California History in the University of California, in a special correspondence course of the University Extension division. Professor Chapman has examined the archives in Spain for early exploration reports of Spanish adventurers, and was the first teacher to discover and publish the historical fact that Spanish explorations in Mexico and California were inspired by informa- tion that England and Russia had planned the territorial penetration of the present state of California. In addition to this course, the Extension Division has prepared a number of courses on general history, and on the history of particular periods and particular countries of the world. There are several courses announced on the history of the United States. One course covers the history of the world from the beginning of civilization. For many months the New York Times and World ended their daily editorial attacks upon the Senate with the assurance that in due time objectors to the unamended covenant would have to swallow their medicine. The medicine is being swallowed, all right, but it isn't the senators who battled for an Americanized covenant that are doing it.
