Anaheim Gazette ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY ESTABLISHED 1870 Henry Kuohel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter WARNING TO THE PUBLIC Commissioner of Corporations E. C. Bellows has issued a warning to investors of California, and especially to former service men, to beware of offers of stock in Craven Oil and Refining Company, which are being made in violation of the California corporate securities act, despite repeated warnings to the company and to the San Francisco newspaper, which again flaunted this Texas oil offer in its columns. Craven Oil and Refining Company has no permit to sell or offer its shares for sale in California. It never has applied to nor received from the commissioner of corporations authority to sell its securities in this state, and every offer and every ad it runs is a violation of the law, and its officers know it. "Like most of the oil companies which refuse to subject themselves to the scrutiny of the commissioner of corporations for one reason and another," said Commissioner Bellows, "Craven Oil and Refining Company utilizes the worn out, cheap appeal to catch dollars. In the advertisement which appeared this morning, this appeal is made especially to ex-service men and extravagant promises are nation. It's getting so a democrat can't even carry a democratic primary. ANTI-JAP PETITIONS Initiative petitions to place anti-Japanese measures on the November ballot will be placed in circulation about May 1. This was the announcement made by H. T. Rasmussen, organizer of the California Oriental Exclusion league, which will direct the circulation of the petitions. Rasmussen said the proposed measures are being re-drafted by the state legislative council bureau in accordance with the changes recommended by organizations and individuals interested in saving California for the white people. "It is our aim," said Rasmussen, "to secure at least 80,000 signatures to the petitions, although but 55,094 are required to qualify the measures for the November election." "The anti-Oriental association of Southern California have promised to get 40,000 of the signatures south of the Tehachapi. I feel confident the signatures will be secured within a short time after the petitions are placed in circulation." Rasmussen said the league has received information from Placer county, a Japanese stronghold, that a petition was circulated among the attorneys of the county pledging them not to handle any transaction whereby land would be conveyed to Orientals, and that all but two attorneys signed the pledge. "This goes to show how unanimous is sentiment against permitting Orientals to acquire more land in the state," said Rasmussen. "Under the pledge taken by the Placer county attorneys they have promised to refuse border. It has led treasury a deficit to replace a surplus by Diaz.

In the advertisement which appeared this morning, this appeal is made especially to ex-service men, and extravagant promises are hell out for participation in enormous profits of these big gushers,' etc. "It even uses the name of Captain Leonard Wood, son of the famous American army general, and runs his reproduced photograph with that of another captain, J. M. Craven. "Now the veriest tyro knows the ways of the slick oil advertiser. The company in its ad is playing on the patriotism of the boys who fought for their country, ostensibly giving them one grand opportunity to get rich over night—if not sooner—and seeking to capitalize the use of a great name and the uniform of the United States army. It also quotes the enormous profits and earnings of legitimate companies to impress the unsophisticated gullible. "In all the state of California there is but one newspaper, to my knowledge, which violates the law by accepting advertisements from companies that refuse to come into the state in the lawful, legitimate way. "While this department has no first-hand information concerning the status of Craven Oil and Refining Company, the fact that it does not see fit to 'place its cards on the table,' and demonstrate that it proposes to honestly and legitimately conduct its business, giving investors a 'run for their dollars,' presuades me that like so many other companies, it cannot stand the light of an investigation. "I desire most emphatically to warn the investors of this state—this means the widow, the school teacher, the laborer, clerk—and especially the men who served in the army, the navy or other branches of the service—against risking their hard-earned dollars in this company's securities. "I can say to the ex-service men and to others that where they have one chance to win in slaking money in such stocks, there are one thousand chances that the money will be swallowed up a total loss." TEST SHOWS LEGHORNS BETTER EGG PRODUCERS Leghorns produce eggs cheaper than hens of the general-purpose breeds—Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds and Orpingtons. This fact which confirms the belief and experience of commercial poultry farmers, was one of the results obtained in a rather extensive feeding test conducted by poultrymen of the United States department of agriculture. Because they lay as many or more eggs, eat only about 55 pounds of feed per head, as compared with 70 to 85 pounds eaten by the general-purpose breeds, and because their egg yield very materially exceeds that of general-purpose breeds during their second and third laying years, Leghorns, the specialists say, undoubtedly are more profitable to keep for the production of eggs only. The Leghorns produce smaller eggs than the general-purpose breeds. The average weight of the eggs of a pen of Leghorns during the first year was 1.42 pounds per dozen as against 1.53 to 1.58 pounds for the other pens. However, Leghorns laying eggs weighing 1.50 pounds per dozen or even more, the specialists say, have been selected and bred by many poultrymen. An examination in May, 1915, of 500 eggs from three Leghorn pens showed that 31 per cent weighed more than 2 ounces each, or 1.50 pounds to the dozen. The value per dozen of the eggs produced by the Leghorns was from 1 to 3 cents less each than the eggs of general-purpose hens.

Tobacco consum aldest year for wh mated, appears to 29,000,000 pounds l 1839 to 1844 the ye the investors of this state—this means the widow, the school teacher, the laborer, clerk—and especially the men who served in the army, the navy or other branches of the service—against risking their hard-earned dollars in this company's securities. "I can say to the ex-service men and to others that where they have one chance to win in slaking money in such stocks, there are one thousand chances that the money will be swallowed up, a total loss." Commissioner Bellows has announced that from day to day he will give the public, through the other newspapers of the state, the names of all these companies that violate the California law. Through the cooperation of the newspapers—99 per cent of which refuse to accept money from such sources, and are determined to protect their readers against almost certain loss—the hopes to stamp out these oil wild cats, and to divert the dollars waiting for investment to the legitimate companies of California and other states, which are obeying the law and are honestly endeavoring to give their investors a run for their money. It's a queer coincidence that the "non-partisan" policy of the group in control of the national offices of the American Federation of Labor always terminates in an effort to tie the labor movement on as a tail to the democratic party's kite. This happens regularly every two years, and is getting ready to happen again. It is certainly quite flattering to those sterling democratic statesmen, Edwards, McAdoo, Bryan and Palmer to get beaten in the Michigan democratic primary for the presidential endorsement by Herbert Hoover, who is a candidate for the republican nominee. The value per dozen of the eggs produced by the Leghorns was from 1 to 3 cents less each than the eggs of general-purpose hens. This difference is due to the fact that the general-purpose breeds are better winter layers than the Leghorns, while the latter give a higher production in the spring and summer. Very few Leghorns become broody, which probably materially affects their egg yield, as compared with the general-purpose breeds. Better fertility in the eggs, especially with stock confined to the yards, is more often secured with Leghorns than with the general-purpose or any of the heavier breeds. U.S. RESPONSIBLE FOR FOR MEXICAN SITUATION Former Ambassador Roaste President for His Watchful Waiting Policy Henry Lane Wilson, former ambassador to Mexico, who resigned his post because he could no longer tolerate the administration's weak-knee policy toward that unfortunate country, spoke his piece before the senate investigating committee regarding President Wilson's watchful waiting attitude. "To date," he said, "it has cost the people of the United States upwards of a half billion dollars. It has led to the violent death of 300,000 Mexicans and to the death by pestilence and famine of 500,000 more. It has caused—up to this week—the murder of 665 American citizens within Mexico, it has kept 80,000 of our troops on the ANAHE M GAZETTE anti-member isolationouncement, oral Except themeasure state accomodationdivided california, "to to the ree reor then of need to death of the national platform of the democratic party, indorsing and demanding a continuance of this course," the witness continued.

COUNTY FARM PICNIC SCHEDULED FOR MAY DAY Old Fashioned May Day Festival to be Staged by Bureau No progressive or thinking farmer can afford to miss the farm bureau picnic and annual meeting on Saturday, May 1, at the Orange county park. A very desirable program has been arranged. This program will provide food for thought as well as pleasure. The directors of the farm bureau have planned to supply refreshments, games, music, speaking and other diversions for the pleasure of everyone spending the holiday at the border. It has left in the Mexican treasury a deficit of over $300,000,000 to replace a surplus of $100,000,000 left by Diaz. "President Wilson's theory that any number of Mexicans are struggling for liberty is erroneous. It is simply a free-for-all struggle for loot. "William J. Bryan, as secretary of state, ran the state department like a back kitchen of a restaurant. "The motives which induced President Wilson to adopt the policy or rather lack of policy toward Mexico during the last seven years," he said, "arise evidently from the obsession that all knowledge and all power rests in the executive. "I am informed that he has already written a plank on the subject for the national platform of the democratic party, indorsing and demanding a continuance of this course," the witness continued. "He cannot be changed." "Anybody who supports the Mexican policy of President Wilson is unpatriotic and un-American." NEED OF ANTI-STRIKE LAW The present railroad strike tying up transportation in and out of nearly all the large cities of the eastern half of the United States, demonstrates the seriousness of the mistake in failing to enact the anti-strike clause of the railroad bill. That clause was asserted by labor leaders to be an attack upon labor unionism. But the present strike is not a labor union strike—it is a strike in defiance of labor unionism. The anti-strike clause of the railroad bill was not an attack upon any particular class or interest—it was an endeavor to protect the public welfare against satire and every attempt to promote selfish interests at the sacrilege used, increased from 669,000,000 to 900,000,000 pounds from 1915 to 1916, and was 1,000,000,000 pounds in 1917 and 828,000,000 pounds in 1918. The average of the last two years is better for those years than the numbers mentioned, and this is 914,000,000 pounds. Prewar consumption was eight itmes the consumption of 40 years before, and in the war years apparently ten times that quantity. The computed per capita consumption of tobacco in this country has been steadily gaining since 1865-1874. Before that time, back to 1839, it seems to have been about 3.3 pounds. Following the Civil war the computed average is as low as 2 pounds, and this was followed by a climbing movement that reached 6.4 pounds in 1905-1914 and 8 pounds during the following four years. For domestic tobacco the per capita consumption grew from 1.8 pounds in 1865-1874 to 5.9 pounds in 1905-1914, and for foreign tobacco from 0.16 to 0.49 of 1 pound. In favor of the repeal of the prohibition amendment, that they are against a military man for president in 1920, that they seek federal help to put soldiers on the farms, they are against the prohibition of tobacco, they believe in compulsory military training, and by a ten to one vote they are in favor of an additional cash bonus. The journal elaborates the vote as follows: "The vote of the veterans on the prohibition amendment seemed to follow generally recognized sectional influences. Practically all southern posts voted solidly against the repeal of the prohibition amendment. The total vote on the question was 3,390 in favor of the repeal and 1,351 against. Of posts voting yes or no, 29 voted for the repeal and 14 against. A New Jersey post which voted for the repeal of prohibition added this ironic comment: 'We favor prohibiting everything that can be prohibited.' The quicker we fall in line and insist on prohibiting tobacco, French high heels, low neck dresses, chewing gum, goo-goo eyes, etc., the sooner we will get a reaction." "A sectional division also observed in the vote on the question of compulsory military training, the south lining up very strongly against the proposal, apparently in keeping with the prejudice against training a large percentage of the negro population as soldiers. The vote of all posts was 3,300 in favor of compulsory training and 2,279 against. Of posts voting yes or no, 26 favored compulsory training and 17 opposed the proposal." The total vote of the various posts on various subjects put to them for a vote stands as follows: Military man for president in 1920: for 1,470; against 4,215. Further federal cash bonus: for 5- No progressive or thinking farmer can afford to miss the farm bureau picnic and annual meeting on Saturday, May 1, at the Orange county park. A very desirable program has been arranged. This program will provide food for thought as well as pleasure. The directors of the farm bureau have planned to supply refreshments, games, music, speaking and other diversions for the pleasure of everyone spending the holiday at the park. "Farmers from every corner of the county will be there—citrus growers, dairymen, bean growers, walnut men and the city folks, too," said Farm Advisor Wahlberg. Dean H. E. Van Norman, dean of the university farm at Davis, will bring a great message to the farmers—"The Farm Laborer Today—The Land Owner Tomorrow." His address among other things will deal with the Japanese situation. This address has thrilled many audiences of farmers. Prof. B. H. Crocheron, state leader of farm advisors, the man who is responsible for the rapid growth and splendid organization of the farm bureau in the thirty-six counties of California, will talk on "The Organized Farmer." Dr. Frank M. Dowling of Fullerton, a speaker of national renown and a friend of the boys, is scheduled for a few minutes of his characteristic fun and humor. He will furnish spice for the afternoon and incidentally answer the question: "How Are You Going to Keep Them Down on the Farm?" If you have a boy, know a boy, love a boy, don't fail to hear Dr. Dowling, is the word that is being sent to the farmers. C. A. Gustlin and his Santa Ana high school band of fifty pieces will furnish special music for the occasion. It is planned to make this a real old-fashioned May day. TOBACCO CONSUMED IN U.S. Figures showing the consumption of tobacco in the United States over a long period have recently been compiled by the bureau of crop estimates, United States department of agriculture. Tobacco consumption in 1790, the oldest year for which it can be estimated, appears to have been nearly 29,000,000 pounds in this country. For 1839 to 1844 the yearly consumption is unknown but has been nearly 29,000,000 pounds in this country. Another effort should be made to enact a measure incorporating the provisions of what is commonly known as the anti-strike clause of hte Cummins bill. There is not now and never has been a disposition or effort to forbid any employee whether on a railroad or not, to quit his employment at any time for any cause. The only purpose—and it was the clearly expressel purpose—of the anti-strike clause of the railroad bill was to forbid a conspiracy on the part of either employers or employees—on the part of any two or more persons—to interfere with interstate commerce. If that provision had been retained in the bill as it was passed through the senate, there would now be a ready and adequate means of punishing those who are endangering the public peace, health and safety by conspiring to hold up trifle in the necessities of life. The question is presented whether the government is capable of protecting its citizens in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. If this strike can continue, then the government apparently fails in the first and most important of its duties. There are still on the staute books some of the war-time measures under which the government was given extraordinary powers. This nation is, in fact, at peace, and though technically still at war because of the stubborn opposition of the president to the ratification of the peace treaty, yet there ought not be any resort to laws enacted to meet war-time emergencies. There should now be upon the statute books laws designed for peace-time conditions under which the government would have full power to protect the public welfare from the attacks of a few who are bent upon promoting their own interests or gratifying their anger by destroying interstate commerce regardless of consequences.

In the entire decade 1865-1874 the yearly tobacco consumption had increased to nearly 76,000,000 pounds. Thereafter the increase was more marked.
