For these preeminently good shoes give dollar-for-dollar value throughout and reduce shoe cost from what it would be with inferior wear, while increasing the satisfaction, the pleasure and lasting pride which comes from correct shoes. Many new and charming models are in the showing now ready. It is interesting to note that there is a fit and style for every taste and need. Plan to call in soon and see these examples of style and correctness. S. Q. R. Store The Home of Greater Values Mrs. George W.

Why You Get the Most Value Here Why You Get the Most Value Here You know that the price of anything is based on what it costs; you know the best materials and highest grade labor cost more than cheaper stuff. You know that, given best materials and best work, the manufacturer who can produce a large quantity, can do it for less cost than one who produces a small quantity. These are simple, well-known business facts. THEREFORE; Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes, made by the largest producers of clothing in the world, made from best all-wool materials, by the highest class of skilled tailors, do offer you more value for every dollar than you get in any other clothes.

This is an increase of nearly 80 per cent in the six months. The tract is a short distance north of Garden Grove and was bought in October by D. G. Cole of Santa Ana, for $16,000. He sold it a short time ago to a Mr. Long for $20,000, who is now selling it to B. F. Wasson for $29,000. Wasson formerly resided in Seattle. The crop now on the trees is estimated as being worth $5000. Marcus Andrade went to Hollywood Monday of last week to attend the funeral of his nephew, Manuel Andrade, aged 42, who died with the flu on Friday last. Death has laid a heavy hand upon the family. On March 3, a sister of deceased, Mrs. Francis Dackovitch, was killed instantly in an automobile accident in Los Angeles, when an electric car crashed into her machine.

Oil men in the Newport beach field received the surprise of their lives Saturday when it was learned that an excellent showing of gas and oil had been found in what has heretofore been termed the biggest wild cat well in the Newport beach field. The well is being drilled on the lot west of the Southern Pacific tracks between the Santa Ana river and west Newport. The hole is said to be down about 750 feet. Drilling has been done with a combination rotary outfit but it is said that this will be replaced in a short time with a standard rig. The showing of gas and oil is said to have been discovered Saturday morning when the drilling crew started work. Because of the large amount of sand, water and mud in the hole operations were discontinued until the hole could be cleaned out. The question of a community nurse is now being discussed in this city. Nearly all societies and churches agree that we should have such an institution. The members of Zion Lutheran church have decided to build a new structure on the site of their present building at the corner of Emily and Chartres streets. A finance committee was appointed to take the necessary steps toward raising funds. The committee is composed of G. H. Grefe, G. H. Flesner, Fred Koesel, William Klausing and Henry Burdorf.

Considerable difficulty is being experienced in organizing a company of national guard. The officers were appointed several weeks ago by Adjutant General Borree, but they are unable to line up sufficient men. Thomas Askin is captain, Evan Miller first lieutenant and Morris Martenet second lieutenant. Captain Askin reported to the board of trade Monday night that only ten men had so far been secured. He considers it a mistake to appoint the officers before the company is signed up. Nearly all of Thursday night heavy cannonading was heard in the west causing the houses of Anaheim to shiver, and the windows and crockery to rattle. People wondered if the Prince of Wales' battleship, Renown, was coming up the coast and throwing a few shells into our midst, or if the guns of Fort McArthur were engaged in exchanging compliments with a Jap fleet, but it developed that the superdreadnaught, Mississippi spent the night repelling an attack of two targets that were endeavoring, under cover of the darkness, to sneak into San Pedro harbor. Both targets were destroyed.

Anaheim is the home of four members of the famous Rainbow division, one of the fighting units of the war that was privileged to meet the Hun on the baltefield on various occasions, and always speeded him in his retreat toward the Rhine. These boys are R. E. Campbell, Clyde Duckworth, Evan Miller and — Hickox. Last Saturday they attended a "Decoration of the Colors" meeting at Exposition park where the three California companies belonging to the division were honored with decorations presented by Adjutant General Borree. Each member received nine silver bars, representing the nine major engagements in which they participated. Anaheim Gazette, per year, $1.50, payable in advance.

Theodore Roberts on Tuesday moved his jewelry store to the room in the Roberts' building on West Center street, formerly occupied by the tamale factory, where he will continue in the jewelry business. The room was refitted after the former occupant moved out. OIL AT THE BEACH A number of business men of Newport beach are satisfied that oil has been found on the flat lying between west Newport and the Santa Ana river and east of the Southern Pacific tracks. Several tests were made by business men who visited the well and they now claim to have seen the oil. The test consisted of scooping up with a newspaper a quantity of water coming from the well. When the water was poured from the paper the sheet would be covered with a coating of oil. This does not indicate that oil has been found in paying quantities, it is said and neither does it prove that oil will be found atother points on the flat. Interest in the new well is high at Newport and the city is now anxiously awaiting the day when drilling will be resumed. It is said to be probable that no more drilling will be done until a standard rig is installed. The present rig has taken the hole down to about the extent of its capacity, it is said. By July propriation grass will be raised in returol expenditure executive elections are as the esti 1917, due to executive branch liberal appraisal. The program majority imminent is shown in public buildings rivers and Bringing tha a peace basin complished, be allowed Some of thie lions that h be committhe food ad dustries booand the raintite action CONGRESS CAN DECLARE PEACE There appears to be a new party division in congress over the power of that body to declare peace. Republican leaders are conferring upon the form of resolution they propose to introduce declaring the war between the United States and Germany at an end. Democrats, on the other hand, contend that the president, under the Constitution, has the sole authority to initiate peace, and Senator Thomas of Colorado cites the proceedings of the Constitutional Convention to show that an amendment to give congress the specific power to declare peace was defeated. Mr. Thomas admits that a joint resolution of congress, carrying with it presidential approval, would be entirely proper, but asserts that congress alone cannot act, even to the extent of overriding a presidential veto. Senator Lodge holds that as the Constitution gives congress power to declare war, it must follow that it has power to repeal such legislation. The soundness of such a proposition would appear to be self-evident, but to dispel further any doubt that may exist we have but to refer to the Constitution. Under its terms congress is specifically empowered "to raise and support armies" and "to provide and maintain a navy." The size and strength of armies and navies is left entirely to the discretion of congress; indeed, at this moment one of the most important bills that is being considered by that body relates to the reorganization and reduction of the army, and another regulates the number of ships and the size of their personnel for the next fiscal year. Congress can abolish the army and navy, either by others of other boards is contemplated by the leaders in congress. The legislative appropriation bill proposes a reduction of 40,000 in the number of federal employees. The army reorganization bill makes similar reductions in the military establishment. Reductions approximating $300,000,000 have been arrived at in the naval appropriations bill. For years the executive department has sent estimates to congress calling for large appropriations. The republican congress has pared them down. The last session cut these estimates more than a billion dollars. This session has started to make a similar cut. It is admitted that without partisan bias from the entrance of the United States into the war until the beginning of the present session congress conformed to the wishes of the executive department. The present congress has given the president's recommendations a respectful hearing, but will not accept executive dictation or carry the blame for administrative mistakes. Democratic, as well as republican leaders, are heartily convinced that it is now the duty of congress to bring this country back to a government of laws rather than of a multiplicity of commissions and boards authorized by the executive during the war period. Congress is the one branch of the government that is directly responsible to the sovereign voters.

The size and strength of armies and navies is left entirely to the discretion of congress; indeed, at this moment one of the most important bills that is being considered by that body relates to the reorganization and reduction of the army, and another regulates the number of ships and the size of their personnel for the next fiscal year. Congress can abolish the army and navy, either by specific legislation or by withholding appropriations for their maintenance. Without an army or navy war would be a fiction, and the president's title of commander-in-chief robbed of its significance. Senator Thomas admits that one way of effecting peace is by "abandonment of hostilities." Without a military force hostilities would cease and peace would be effected. It is absurd to concede that congress has the substantial right to effect peace by abolishing our military strength, but is denied the technical right of formally declaring that peace exists. It is equally absurd, and repugnant to every conception of American democracy, that a single individual in the White House can hold the country in a state of war should two-thirds of each house of congress vote the contrary in overriding an executive veto. The president wages war only by mandate from congress. Can it be successfully contended that he may continue that war when that mandate is withdrawn? Is it possible that congress, having declared the nation to be in a state of war and authorized the president to prosecute that war, has created a situation, a sort of Frakenstein, which it cannot alter but must endure so long as the executive shall will it? The president is but the agent of congress in directing the forces and expending the war funds provided him. Can it be that he is greater than the source from which his powers spring? The Constitution was ordained to secure "the blessings of liberty" to the people. Those blessings are utterly lost of their fate is to repose exclusively in the hands of a president, without appeal to the people themselves through their representatives in congress. Fortunately the days of American autocracy in the White House are rapidly waning, and more fortunate still for present pur- during the war period. Congress is the one branch of the government that is directly responsible to the sovereign voters. MEXICO IS QUIET SAY STANLEY CHAPMAN After a Week in the Interior He Says Only War He Saw Was in the Newspapers After a trip of several hundred miles into the interior of Mexico Stanley Chapman has returned with the comment that the only war he saw was in the newspapers, says The News. Conditions in Mexico, at least in the sections which he coverer in a trip of several days, have been greatly exaggerated, he says, and he is inclined to believe that there is an active propaganda at work somewhere. Not only were conditions quiet, he says, but the Mexicans he saw and met were acutally friendly and anxious for Americans to come in with American capital and develop their resources. The Mexicans, according to his experience, especially the more intelligent, realize that they are practically at the end of their own resources. Mexico, he says, is unbelievably rich in resources of all sorts, minerals, agricultural and otherwise, so much so that a prospective investor is actually embarrassed and confused by the multitude of opportunities. Law and order is the only thing needed to make Mexico a garden spot since this would mean outside capital without which development is impossible. The name "Obregon" is on every Hp, he says, and the popularity of this Mexican general is accounted for by the fact that he is believed to be friendly to the United States and if elected president of Mexico will encourage United States citizens and capital to come into Mexico. DECLINE DEMOCRATIC SUPPORT Herbert Hoover in a telegram to Chandler M. Wood of the democratic state committee of Massachusetts has again refused to accept the democratic nomination for president. In California, however, although Mr. Hoover's name appears only on The Constitution was ordained to secure "the blessings of liberty" to the people. Those blessings are utterly lost of their fate is to repose exclusively in the hands of a president, without appeal to the people themselves through their representatives in congress. Fortunately the days of American autocracy in the White House are rapidly waning, and more fortunate still for present purposes, the proceedings of congress are directed by republican majorities who will see to it that the question of peace or war is not left solely to the caprice of a single individual. BACK TO PRE-WAR BASIS By July 1, next, when the new appropriation bills become effective, congress will have made substantial progress in returning to a pre-war basis of expenditure. With the war over the executive estimates for 1921 appropriations are nearly four times as great as the estimates for the fiscal year 1917, due to the insistence of the executive branch of the government that liberal appropriations should be continued. The program of economy, which the majority in congress is carrying out, is shown in the decision to have no public building bill and no general rivers and harbors bill this session. Bringing the public business back to a peace basis is not yet entirely accomplished, as certain agencies must be allowed to clean up their work. Some of the war boards and commissions that have passed away include the committee on public information, the food administration, the war industries board, the war labor board, and the railroad administration.
