HOOVERIZED HUMOR OR DELIBERATE INSULT? In his statement to the public Herbert Hoover says that he declines to "pledge his vote blindfolded." One can not help but wonder whether Mr. Hoover is lacking in sense of humor, or whether he deliberately hurled an insult at a large majority of the people of the United States. His statement, that he declines to pledge his vote blindfolded, was in answer to the inquiry as to his party affiliation. His reason for having no party affiliation, or refusing to disclose that affiliation, was that he would not "pledge his vote blindfolded." Through unavoidable inference, every other man who has a party allegiance and declares that party allegiance, thereby pledges his vote blindfolded. If there was ever a more pronounced illustration of the "holler than thou" attitude, we would like to know it. Such men as Jefferson, Roosevelt, Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Cleveland, Jackson, and all the other great men in American history, and the great men in the history of other modern nations, have not deemed it improper to have party allegiance, and to declare that allegiance openly. According to the ideas expressed by Mr. Hoover, these men had "pledged their votes blindfolded." There are several million voters in the United States who go to he polls and register their party affiliations when they participate in a party primary. According to Mr. Hoover's dictum, these people "pledge their votes blindfolded." Of course any person who will be based on the amount for roads which they This is practically all which the War Department will be distributed way cars can be used transportation.

Of course, any person who will analyze Mr. Hoover's statement and check it up with the facts, will know that nothing of the sort actually takes place. Not one man in a million of the voters of the United States pledges his vote blindfolded. If Mr. Hoover is blindfolded, the obstruction of his vision is something for which he alone is responsible. He has the same opportunity to study the history, principles, and policies of the political parties that all the rest of the people of the United States have. If he must confess his inability to choose which party best harmonizes with his ideas, he either confesses himself inferior to the great majority of the people of the United States, or he condemns the rest as intellectually dishonest. LAW SUGGESTED AS GUIDE IN FARMERS' INSURANCE Though the value of farmers' mutual fire insurance companies is demonstrated conclusively by the record of approximately 2,000 such organizations in the United States, there are many States whose laws make no suitable provision for forming and operating such companies. Consequently at the request of various representatives of farm interests, the United States Department of Agriculture, in co-operation with the National Association of Mutual Insurance Companies, has prepared suggestions for a State law providing for the organization of farmers' mutual fire insurance companies. These suggestions have just been issued in the form of a department circular, which can be used to advantage by anyone concerned in promoting legislation relating to this question. In some cases, of course, the provisions may need modification to meet constitutional requirements.

These suggestions have just been issued in the form of a department circular, which can be used to advantage by anyone concerned in promoting legislation relating to this question. In some cases, of course, the provisions may need modification to meet constitutional requirements. In general, the suggested law is designed to make it easy for 20 or more qualified individuals to organize a farmers' mutual fire insurance company. At the same time provisions are included which adequately safeguard the financial integrity of such companies. Figures compiled by the Office of Farm Management, United States Department of Agriculture, show that the companies now in existence carry a total insurance exceeding $6,000,000 on property valued at over $7,500,000,000, which is more than two-fifths of the value of all insurable farm property in the 48 states. In a number of states where this form of protection has been highly developed, the average cost falls below one-half the rates quoted by commercial concerns or the so-called bureau rates. Since about 15 per cent of all the farmers' mutuals in the country write policies that give protection against windstorms, as well as fire and lightning, the average rate for the country as a whole is higher than it otherwise would be. Notwithstanding this fact, the average for the country as a whole is only 26 cents per $100. The writing of windstorm insurance is not permitted to local mutuals under the suggested law, however, since only companies that operate over wide areas can assume this risk with safety. WAR TRUCKS FOR ROAD BUILDERS To date the War Department has turned over to the United States Department of Agriculture approximately 24,000 motor vehicles, as provided in congressional legislation empowering the latter department to distribute this war material among the State highway commissioners for use in road building, allotments of the vehicles to In those states highways have been point deemed adequate and future traffic needs mission, the commission is to construct an equivalent that taken over, but those cases will rest. "For the purpose of the act there is approx. 300 which shall become available; $75,000,000 year beginning July 1, 1916, 100,000 for each of the ing years, in all $425."

This field is furnishing sufficient 100 ewes with their provement is due in ANAHEIM GAZETTE be based on the amount of Federal aid for roads which the States receive. This is practically all the vehicles which the War Department has to release. Of this total 12,000 have been delivered to the States. The remainder will be distributed as fast as railway cars can be recured for their transportation. Representatives of the Bureau of Public Roads, in charge of the matter, believe that within two or three months all of the vehicles will have been delivered to the States. This equipment promises to be a great aid in carrying out the large road building program for 1920. The State highway commissioners are also interested in securing allotments of tractors, steam shovels, locomotive cranes, automotive cranes, industrial railway track, dump cars, and industrial locomotives which remain to be disposed of by the War Department. A measure known as the Kahn Bill, directing the Secretary of War to release this material for the State highway commissioners, has passed the Senate and has been reported out of committee in the House. Until the Secretary of War has been directed by Congress to turn over this equipment it is not likely that it will be available for State distribution. ENCOURAGING FEDERAL ROADS A question of interest in highway legislation before the present session of congress is the Townsend bill, providing for a national highway commission, a national highway system, and national construction and maintenance of this system. This bill was introduced on January 1, compared with $8,827,894,000 a year ago, the Department of Agriculture announced this week. Horses numbered 21,109,000, a decrease of 1.4 per cent from a year ago, and were valued at $1,992,542,000. Mules numbered 4,995,000, a decrease of 1.1 per cent from a year ago. Their value was $734,779,000. Milch cows numbered 23,747,000, an increase of were valued at $2,021,681,000. Other cattle numbered 44,385,000, a decrease 0.5 per cent over a year ago. They of 5.2 per cent from a year ago. Their value was $1,914,575,000. Sheep numbered 48,615,000, a decrease of 1 per cent from a year ago. They were valued at $511,654,000. Swine numbered 72,909,000, a decrease of 8.7 per cent from a year ago. They were valued at $1,386,212,000. NEW LAW IN EFFECT The minimum wage scale for women, affecting all women employees in mercantile establishments, hotels, apartment houses and restaurants except told. When that hope vanished nothing remained except to wait until things somehow settled themselves, and then, if thought best, issue a decree to fit. But the Dardanelles is another matter. Russia, possibly reinforced by Germany, with the Dardanelles in friendly hands, could at any time organize a great force in the Black Sea with which to attack Egypt—where such a force would be more than welcome—and close the Suez canal route from London to Calcutta. Great Britain is bound to prevent that. While the matter has never been submitted to a vote of the people of India, that country is claimed as a part of the British empire. As apparently such control is possible only by continued force, to close the Suez canal to British ships would probably involve the loss not only of Egypt but of India. Several reasons prevent Great Britain from herself taking control of the Dardanelles, which, accordingly, are to be put in charge of the League of Nations, which means France and England, whose interests there are identical, as are Italy's so long as she does not renew her alliance with Germany, to which her people are not disinclined. And while Japan is smart enough not to bother about Europe she is an ally of Great Britain so long as allowed her own way in Northern China. So the League of Nations will regulate the Dardanelles the way Great Britain wants it regulated—and doubtless in the interest of peace in the Mediterranean. Which is where the "idealism" comes in. ENCOURAGING FEDERAL ROADS A question of interest in highway legislation before the present session of congress is the Townsend bill, providing for a national highway commission, a national highway system, and national construction and maintenance of this system. This bill was introduced in the senate just before the holiday recess. The important points covered by it are enumerated in a statement approved by Senator Townsend as follows: "Authorizes the construction and maintenance of a national system of highways exclusively at the expense of the national government. Creates a federal highway commission to be named by the president with the advice and consent of the Senate to take over all the highway functions now exercised by the department of agriculture and to construct and maintain a national highway system. This commission is to consist of five men selected with due regard for geographical representation. The national highways shall consist of two main highways in every state, comprising one per cent of the total highway mileage of each state as ascertained by the commission, where one per cent is not sufficient to cause these highways to connect with adjacent states, bordering countries, waterways, the commission is authorized to extend the mileage in that amount. The commission is directed to consult the state highway departments as to locations of those highways and is further authorized to have all the work undertaken by the state highway department, supervisory power remaining with the commission. In those states where national highways have been constructed to a point deemed adequate for present and future traffic needs by the commission, the commission is authorized to construct an equivalent mileage to that taken over, but maintenance in those cases will rest with the state." For the purpose of carrying out they were valued at $511,654,000. Swine numbered 72,909,000, a decrease of 8.7 per cent from a year ago. They were valued at $1,386,212,000. NEW LAW IN EFFECT The minimum wage scale for women, affecting all women employees in mercantile establishments, hotels, apartment houses and restaurants except those employed six hours a day for seven days a week, became effective the first of last week. This law detailed by the State Industrial Welfare Commission in July of last year should have gone into effect in September but was delayed for some six months. The law provides that no women or girls employed in a hotel, apartment house, restaurant, mercantile establishment or any such other place shall receive a wage of less than $13.50 a week if employed for full time. Employers may not permit their women employees to work more than eight hours in a period not to exceed 13 hours in any one day, or more than 48 hours in any one week. It is also specified that in none of the establishments affected by this law will women be permitted to begin work before 6 a.m. or continue work after 10 p.m. in the day. UNDER SIDEWALK RENTALS URGED FOR CITY A new source of revenue for the city has been discovered. A veritable gold mine lies within the business district of Los Angeles, undiscovered by the city officials who have gone far afield in efforts to add to the city's revenues, according to Frank Gibson, of 217 Franklin street. "The city should rent the space under the sidewalks," said Gibson. Gibson explained that the basements of many business establishments in the downtown business district extended underneath he sidewalks. He said that this property should yield revenue to the city. "In Chicago, the matter was taken up," he said, "with the result that the property owners were obliged to which her people are not disinclined. And while Japan is smart enough not to bother about Europe she is an ally of Great Britain so long as allowed her own way in Northern China. So the League of Nations will regulate the Dardanelles the way Great Britain wants it regulated—and doubtless in the interest of peace in the Mediterranean. Which is where the "idealism" comes in. SALVATION ARMY DRIVE An advisory board for the Salvation Army is to be formed in Orange county. That board shall have general supervision of the work of the Salvation Army in the county and shall assist in raising funds and in directing the public usefulness of the Salvation Army. G. W. Harper, a field agent and financial organizer for the Salvation Army, was in Santa Ana and made arrangements for a meeting at the city hall at which time an advisory board of seven or nine members will be chosen and officers elected. "It is proposed," said Harper, "to put the Salvation Army work into closer touch with the needs of communities. Instead of a state council telling a county what its quota in a drive is, this advisory board will review the work that is to be done and will advise the state council as to what its quota should be. "Here in Santa Ana a new Salvation Army building is proposed. This advisory board is to review the situation and decide upon the kind of building best suited to the needs here, and is to decide when and how a campaign shall be put on to raise the money." Harper said that advisory boards had been organized in about forty counties of the state. Last year the Salvation Army budget for the year was raised through a campaign fathered by the Elks. Hereafter it is proposed to have the drives conducted in accordance with the new plan, with the Elks co-operating in every way possible. A new drive for funds is to take place probably in May. This advisory board is to have charge of or... In those states where national highways have been constructed to a point deemed adequate for present and future traffic needs by the commission, the commission is authorized to construct an equivalent mileage to that taken over, but maintenance in those cases will rest with the state. "For the purpose of carrying out the act there is appropriated $50,000,000 which shall become immediately available; $75,000,000 for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1920, and $100,000,000 for each of the three succeeding years, in all $425,000,000." "After making such deductions as may be necessary for administration and maintenance, the commission is directed to allocate the remaining funds between the several states annually in the same ratio that the mileage in each state bears to the total mileage selected in all states." OPPORTUNITY IN SHEEP RAISING Results of a farm sheep experiment reported by the United States Department of Agriculture show clearly the possibilities of a profitable sheep raising business upon eastern lands. At the government farm, Beltsville, Md., a study is being made of specialized intensive sheep raising with complete reliance upon forage crops for summer pasturage. In 1916 a 30-acre area did not produce sufficient forage to feed satisfactorily 44 Southdown ewes and 33 lambs. This field is now capable of furnishing sufficient summer feed for 100 ewes with their lambs. The improvement is due in part to the appliance under the sidewalks," said Gibson. Gibson explained that the basements of many business establishments in the downtown business district extended underneath he sidewalks. He said that this property should yield revenue to the city. "In Chicago, the matter was taken up," he said, "with the result that the property owners were obliged to pay rent on the land." Every pair of steel doors leading to a basement, he indicated, is a gate leading toward a land of riches, and every stretch of sidewalk inlaid with glass is the indiscreet informer on the landlord. Gibson's proposal that the city rent the land suggests that other means of adding to the city's funds might be discovered. Gibson has set the ball a-rolling. It is believed that other Angelenoes will carry the good word along and unearth other means of adding to the city's daily pay check. CONTROL OF DARDANELLES The "supreme council" has decided that the Sultan may remain in Constantinople, at least for the present, and govern from there whatever territory is finally left to him, which is not yet determined, the questions involved being more complicated and perplexing than those of the Adriatic. The trouble is that the "supreme council" is not supreme in anything, as it has no force and cannot get any. For a time the expectation was that the supreme council would decree things and the United States send an army to see that all hands did as they were ADVISORY BOARD FOR THE SALVATION ARMY Cocnty Organization Will Assist the Doughnut Lassies. At a meeting Thursday afternoon at Santa Ana the Orange County Salvation Army Advisory Board was organized with a membership of sixteen, with T. E. Stephenson as chairman of the board and Alex Brownridge as secretary. This board is a civilian board, such as has been organized in most counties of the state. Its function is to confer with the local and state Salvation Army officials in regard to county and community projects and policies, and to assist the Salvation Army through organization for raising funds. The next meeting of the board will be held in about two weeks, at which time a conference will be held with Capt. Schute, local head of the Salvation Army, and G. W.
