WARM GAMPAIGN FOR CHOICE OF CANDIDATE HOOVER AND JOHNSON FORCES LINING UP FOR SHOW DOWN NEXT TUESDAY Food Administrator's Supporters Organize and Select Precinct Captains to Get Out the Vote—Hon. Joseph Scott Addresses the People in Behalf of the Senator The primary campaign will reach its culmination next Tuesday when the voters will decide whether the California delegates to the Chicago convention will support Herbert C. Hoover or Hiram W. Johnson for the presidency. Supporters of both candidates have been active, and both are laying claim to a sweeping victory, therefore, somebody is due for a deep disappointment when the vote is counted. The democrats also will the voters and preparing for the fray next Tuesday. Hon. Joseph Scott of Los Angeles, one of the senator's most eloquent supporters in the south, passed through the county yesterday, making brief stops at the principal points. He spoke at Fullerton at 10 a.m. and in Anaheim at 1:30, the meeting here being held at the corner of Emily and Center street, opposite the city hall. The Johnson supporters believe the senator is just as invincible as on former occasions in California, and that he has lost none of his prestige by reason of his attitude on public questions in the senate. They are confident of a sweeping victory. Following are the polling places in this city: Precinct No. 1—High school building. Precinct No. 2—123 North Lemon street. Precinct No. 3—Ford garage, 228 North Los Angeles street. Precinct No. 4—Bushard building, 405 East Center street. Precinct No. 5—Frank Arnold's cigar factory. Precinct No. 6—Fremont school building, 554 West Center street. Precinct No. 7—F. K. Gresswell's office, 117 South Los Angeles street. Precinct No. 8—Duckworth building.

Owing ing number of machin The primary campaign will reach its culmination next Tuesday when the voters will decide whether the California delegates to the Chicago convention will support Herbert C. Hoover or Hiram W. Johnson for the presidency. Supporters of both candidates have been active, and both are laying claim to a sweeping victory, therefore, somebody is due for a deep disappointment when the vote is counted. The democrats also will vote on that day, but little interest is being taken by them as the delegates to the San Francisco convention will go uninstructed. As a matter of fact, few democrats have a choice in the matter, the great body of them being indifferent as to who is selected to lead that party to defeat in November. The Johnsonites, it is conceded, have the better organization in the state, but the Hooverites are coming strong on the home stretch, and are making an eleventh-hour effort to organize and get out their voters. C. C. Teague, candidate for delegate on the Hoover ticket, is touring the south this week waking up the Hoover supporters and organizing for the battle of the ballots Tuesday. Mr. Teague, accompanied by W. F. Menton, W. L. Grubb and several other Hoover supporters, met a number of Anaheim adherents of the food administrator, ladies and gentlemen, at the Mother Colony club rooms Monday afternoon. Mr. Teague made an informal talk, urging the necessity of an organization that would number the Hoover supporters and arrange to get them to the polls Tuesday. The Johnson forces, he declared were better organized and would poll their full strength, but there was no question that the majority of the republicans favored Mr. Hoover, and if their candidate was defeated it would be simply because his friends were apathetic and failed to take advantage of their opportunity. Wherever he had gone he had found Hoover sentiment dominant and if he was beaten in the contest for the delegation to Chicago, it would be because his friends laid down and failed to do their duty. Some of the things in Hiram Johnson's political career that are being overlooked by the voters, were casually mentioned by Mr. Teague, and he and others eulogized Hoover for his broad-mindedness and administra- Precinct No. 3—Ford garage, 228 North Los Angeles street.

HIGH SCHOOL BONDS BRING BIG PREMIUMS Katella Bonds Also Sell at Satisfactory and Encouraging Figure The Anaheim high school bond issue was sold by the board of supervisors Wednesday, bringing a premium of $5,138, and the $33,000 Katella bonds sold for $728 premium, which indicates that there is still a good market for gilt-edged securities. Bank, Huntley & Co. and Blyth, Witter & Co., two Los Angeles firms, turned in a combination bid and secured the high school bonds. The next highest bidder was the Bank of Italy of Los Angeles, the bid being $4,488. Other bidders and the amounts were: Torrence Marshall & Co., $4,168; Frank & Lewis, $4,090; Security Trust & Savings Bank and R. H. Moulton, $3100; William R. Staats-company, $1,936; and C. H. Robbins & Sons, $1,942.50. The Katella school bonds, a $33,000 issue, went to the Bank of Italy on its bid of $728. Other bidders for these bonds were: Frank & Lewis, $82.50, and Torrence Marshall & Co., $417. OFFICERS ELECTED BY SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION Anaheim District Approves of an Annual County Field Day One hundred and fifty delegates representing the 42 Sunday schools of the Anaheim district were in attendance at the annual convention held at the M.

Some of the things in Hiram Johnson's political career that are being overlooked by the voters, were casually mentioned by Mr. Teague, and he and others eulogized Hoover for his broad-mindedness and administrative ability. In answer to a question as to Mr. Hoover's attitude on protection to the citrus industry, Mr. Teague said that Mr. Hoover had always been a republican and his party had always stood for protection. He would endorse the Chicago platform which undoubtedly would demand a high protective tariff on all American products. He also said Mr. Hoover favored the league of nations and the peace treaty with the senate reservations, and that Senator Johnson was opposed to it, although the republican convention would undoubtedly endorse the treaty as presented by the senate foreign relations committee. Responding to the urging of Mr. Teague the Hoover supporters met at the Mother Colony rooms Monday evening for the purpose of forming an organization and getting a working force out among the people. The club was organized by the election of Thomas Crawford as president and Harry Whitaker secretary. It was decided to appoint twenty men and women to canvass the city, list the voters and see that all who favor Mr. Hoover get to the polls next Tuesday and vote. Automobiles will be provided to haul the ladies in. The Hoover people are confident they will give their candidate a majority in Anaheim if their full strength is cast. The Johnson forces are also extremely active this week lining up Anaheim District Approves of an Annual County Field Day One hundred and fifty delegates representing the 42 Sunday schools of the Anaheim district were in attendance at the annual convention held at the M. E. Church Friday. Reports from all show that the Sunday schools of the district, which includes northern Orange county, and the city of Orange, are in a flourishing condition. Officers for the coming year were elected as follows: President—Chas. Eygabroad of Anaheim. Vice President—F. M. Gulick of Orange. Secretary-Treasurer—Miss Esther Neville of Orange. Supt. of Children's Division—Mrs. Fred Klahn of Orange. Supt. of Young People's Division—S. R. Coate of Anaheim. Supt. of Adult Division—L. O. Culp of Fullerton. Supt. of Educational Division—Mrs. J. R. Reeve of Fullerton. Supt. of Administrative Division—Mrs. Anna Garrettson of La Habra. The convention approved the proposition to hold an Orange county field day immediately following the closing of schools. Should the Santa Ana district approve this annual event it will be adopted. Various features are being arranged for this first field day in Orange county, which it is proposed to make an annual event, including presentation of banners or other trophies of those Sunday schools with the best records, a program of athletic events, and a big get-together picnic. The beach towns want the field day, and the county park has also its supporters, but the site of the big gathering is yet to be definitely chosen. 4. Drivers who fall the rules of the road.

Last Sunday nearly every one of Anaheim’s twelve hundred autos were on the boulevards where they mingled with thousands from the various sections of the county and tens of thousands from all points of Southern California. Owing to the increasing number of machines that congest without jeopardizing safety. This fact is recognized by nine-tenths of motorists, who have a decent regard for the rights and welfare of others. On the other hand, a few drivers, through recklessness and disregard of the laws, not only endanger themselves, but all others as well. To this class of drivers the department intends to devote special attention this year, and is asking the assistance and cooperation of all motorists and the public in a safety campaign. “There is ample provision in the law for effective work in correcting this evil. It is not necessary to wait until one reckless driver has damaged a car. Any operator against whom two verified written complaints have been filed for reckless, negligent, or unlawful operation of a motor vehicle will be cited to appear and show cause why his license to operate a motor vehicle upon the highways of this state should not be revoked. “Any person witnessing a violation of the rules of the road may make a written complaint to the superintendent of the motor vehicle department. The accused operator will receive a warning from the department when the first complaint is filed. The second complaint will cause drastic action, as it is the intention of the department to revoke the licenses of all MANY THOUSANDS EXPECTED AT BIG SHOW FIRST ORANGE COUNTY AUTOMOBILE WILL BE A GRAND SUCCESS All Space in Two Big Tents Taken by Local Dealers—Committee Providing High Class Entertainment for the Visitors — Airplanes to Carry Passengers Fifty thousand square feet of canvas will be used in constructing the two hugh tents that will house the exhibits in the Orange County Auto show that opens in this city next Wednesday and continues until midnight Saturday. Although the tents have available for the exhibitors 33,700 square feet of space, every foot has been allotted to dealers who were fortunate enough to get their applications in early, and many others The spring exodus on Sundays from the cities and ranches to the beaches, mountains and other resorts has begun. Last Sunday nearly every one of Anaheim's twelve hundred autos were on the boulevards where they mingled with thousands from the various sections of the county and tens of thousands from all points of Southern California. Owing to the increasing number of machines that congest the highways, and the imminent danger of accidents, the state motor vehicle department is taking extraordinary precautions to protect the public by a strict enforcement of the new law governing autos on the road. The opening of spring weather has caused the old time spring rush on the roads again, and it is time that all motorists were learning the rules of the road, for the machines are increasing in number each succeeding year, with a corresponding increase in the number of careless drivers and number who handle a machine on Sunday only. Anaheim motorists should bear in mind argus-eyed officers are guarding the highways, and so necessary is it to the safety of the public that the rules of the road should be strictly in peril. Charles J. Chenu, superintendent of the law may bring a severe penalty on the head of offender. Reckless drivers not only endanger the lives of themselves and their passengers, but they put the lives of innocent parties in peril. Charles J. Chnu, superintendent of the state voter vehicle department, has issued orders to all officers to arrest drivers for violating the law under the following heads: 1. Speeders. 2. Those who have not complied with the new law governing the regulation of headlights. 3. Drivers without licenses for their machines or licenses to operate cars. 4. Drivers who fail to comply with the rules of the road. Chenu issues a special warning to motorists running with but one headlight and those violating the speed laws. He says: "I have noticed a great tendency upon the part of motorists to run with but one light. Offentimes this light is on the side of the car next the edge of the roads and a dangerous situation thus arises, as a motor vehicle upon the highways of this state should not be revoked. "Any person witnessing a violation of the rules of the road may make a written complaint to the superinfendent of the motor vehicle department. The accused operator will receive a warning from the department when the first complaint is filed. The second, complaint will cause drastic action, as it is the intention of the department to revoke the licenses of all persistent law breakers. The percentage of those who violate the law is small, but their actions bring odium upon the great majority of motorists who respect the laws, and is in intended to take away the opportunity of the wrong doers to make trouble for themselves or others." FULLERTON MAY FUNK ON OUTFALL SEWER Citizens Discussing Some Other Plan of Disposing of Sewage Is the proposed outfall sewer, from Fullerton to the sea, the best solution of the vexed question of sewerage disposal? This is a question which is being asked in view of the fact that the project now promises to be much more expensive than when originally conceived, says the News. For a considerable time both Fullerton and Anaheim municipal authorities have been working on a plan to build a big outfall sewer to the Pacific ocean, a sewer which would be large enough to care for the needs of both cities for a long time to come. When the plans were first prepared it was estimated that $160,000 would cover each city's share of the big undertaking. The building expense to be borne equally and the maintenance cost to be apportioned with regard to the degree which each city makes use of it. It now appears that it will cost each city about $300,000 to do what it was supposed would cost $160,000 when the plan was first proposed. This is a large sum even for Fullerton and it is more proportionately for Anaheim since the Mother Colony's assessed valuation lacks a number of oil wells which help Fullerton to assume plutocratic airs. The matter of expense has led to further questions about some other vehicles upon the highways of this state should not be revoked. Fifty thousand square feet of canvas will be used in constructing the two hugh tents that will house the exhibits in the Orange County Auto show that opens in this city next Wednesday and continues until midnight Saturday. Although the tents have available for the exhibitors 33,700 square feet of space, every foot has been allotted to dealers who were fortunate enough to get their applications in early, and many others throughout the Southland who wanted space were of necessity denied. The forty-odd dealers of Orange county of course came first, and the space and position was allotted by a drawing held at Santa Ana last week. The automobile show has grown to much greater proportions than was anticipated when it was first considered. Instead of calling on outsiders to help fill up the space the managers have found it difficult satisfying the demands of focal dealers, and of course many from Los Angeles, San Bernardino and other cities who wanted room to make a display had to be denied. It is now stated that this will be the greatest display of the automobile trades ever seen in Southern California outside of Los Angeles. All the makes of autos, trucks and tractors will be shown with an expert on hand to explain the points of each, so that the visitor, if he takes the time to investigate, may gain a thorough knowledge of everything of this description on the market, and if he wants to buy will be able to make an intelligent selection. The show will be a great advertising medium for the dealer and a valuable education for the prospective purchaser. It is impossible to make an intelligent estimate of the number of people who will take advantage of the show to see what is new in cars, trucks and tractors, but it is believed every man and woman in Orange county who is interested, as well as thousands from other counties, will be registered as present at least one day. In addition to the splendid display of autos and accessories the committee has engaged a number of high class artists who will entertain the visitors throughout the four days' exhibition. Two army airplanes that saw service in Europe during the war will be on hand, a landing place on a field adjoining the show grounds having been prepared. In addition to most pictures in marine joyable times tain has occurred. INCREASES One of these moments in this week morning thru W. P. West Central Midwest his companyduction of cars.

Drivers who fail to comply with the rules of the road. Chenu issues a special warning to motorists running with but one headlight and those violating the speed laws. He says: "I have noticed a great tendency upon the part of motorists to run with but one light. Offentimes this light is on the side of the car next the edge of the roads and a dangerous situation thus arises, as a motorist approaching has no means of knowing he is not encountering a motorcycle instead of a larger machine. "This is a dangerous violation and one we will prosecute. "The state law has given motorists another five miles of speed, but it must be remembered this is only on the open road, where there are few cars. Speeders in traffic are dangerous, and even if they are traveling less than 30 miles an hour, are liable to arrest. "The department has been so busy during the rush of license issuing, we have not been able to get on the highways as we should have done. But with the rush over, the 'Round-Up Squad' will get busy and I shall demand prosecutions. "The opening of real spring weather has started the motorists going, and California's splendid highway system is being put to the test to accommodate the throngs on business and pleasure bent. In many places the wide out-of-doors calls and the smooth roadway invites the driver to gain a little on old Father Time. It is in the blood of the motorist, who cannot be blamed for enjoying conditions to the limit. There is a limit, however, and the state motor vehicle department is sending out warnings to all automobile owners to exercise caution, and keep within the law. There are ample opportunities for enjoyment It now appears that it will cost each city about $300,000 to do what it was supposed would cost $160,000 when the plan was first proposed. This is a large sum even for Fullerton and it is more proportionately for Anaheim since the Mother Colony's assessed valuation lacks a number of oil wells which help Fullerton to assume plutocratic airs. The matter of expense has led to the question whether some other method of sewer disposal might not be found which would serve the purpose at less cost. It should be kept in mind that numberless cities throughout the country have neither access to the ocean nor even to large streams and yet they have found ways to care for their sewage. One suggestion is that Fullerton might enlarge its present sewer farm, install filteration beds, settling basins, septic tanks or whatever is used to treat the sewage, at much less cost than constructing the sewer to the sea and get results practically as good. The city now owns 40 acres of land not far from the west end of Commonwealth avenue. It has been suggested that 60 acres additional could be purchased for, perhaps, $30,000 and that suitable equipment to treat the sewage could be installed without great expense, the entire expense being, perhaps, not over $100,000. It is also believed that the maintenance costs would be less than the $10,000 or $12,000 which would be the interest on the additional cost if the outfall to the sea were built. It is said such a plant would take care of the needs of the city for years to come while the water, after it had passed the sand and charcoal beds, would be valuable for irrigation purposes and it would be almost chemically pure. In addition to the splendid display of autos and accessories the committee has engaged a number of high class artists who will entertain the visitors throughout the four days' exhibition. Two army airplanes that saw service in Europe during the war will be on hand, a landing place on a field adjoining the show grounds having been prepared. In addition to making exhibition flights daily these planes will make special trips carrying passengers, and no doubt the pilots will be worked overtime. All the roads in Southern California will lead to Anaheim Wednesday, Thursday. Friday and Saturday of next week, and tens of thousands of strangers will be in our midst attending this the first Orange County Automobile Show. Saturday, May 8, ought to be a live day in Anaheim. This is the closing day of the auto show and the opening day of the chautauqua. Besides it is Saturday, always a big day here, even when there is nothing special to attract the people except the finest stores and most obliging merchants in this section of the earth. If you are visiting Anaheim that day come early and stay late. Do your trading in the forenoon, see the auto show in the afternoon and attend the chautauqua at night. Make a day of it. It should be added that this is not an argument against the outfall sewer. The original plan may be the best but the constantly augmenting costs of such construction may eventually put it out of the reach of one or both cities and the sewer farm and filtering beds may become an alternative solution worth consideration. ETTE Number 26 EATEN BY ALLIGATORS Mrs. Arthur Davis is in receipt of a letter from her son Raymond, who is a member of the United States marines at Panama, in which he relates the circumstances of the horrible death which befell the captain of his company while boating with another officer in waters infested with alligators. One of the oars fell into the water, and the captain leaped from the boat in order to recover it. His body sank immediately out of sight, and it is supposed was eaten by alligators. A large searching party immediately went to the scene of the accident, but no trace of the missing officer could be found. Raymond adds that loss of life in this manner is not uncommon in the Canal Zone. In speaking of Panama and the contiguous territory, he says the country is most picturesque and beautiful, and the marines have a thoroughly enjoyable time, gut that loss of his captain has cast a gloom over the marines. Alligators are frequently seen in Gatun lake and the canal, following boats in large numbers.

The trustees voted to appoint O. E. Steward city manager, which was a compliment to Mr. Steward. H. G. Ames asked for re-appointment as city attorney. Wm. P. Webb, Jr., also filed an application for the position. Backs moved that Ames' application be accepted, seconded by Mann. Gates moved that Webb's INCREASING ITS CAPACITY One of the most important developments in Orange county industrial life this week was made known this morning through an announcement by W. P. Weller, superintendent of the Central Milling company of Olive, that his company is to increase the production of its mill 200 per cent. The mill of this company at present has a capacity of 100 barrels of flour daily. When the new plant is ready to run 300 barrels of Perfection flour will be the daily output. This mill was bought from the Olive Milling company by John R. Gardiner and his associates last October. The Central Milling company was adopted as a name immediately. Since that time the entire building has been worked over and made modern. More than $150,000 worth of new milling machinery is now on the premises, ready for installation. The last run of the mill under present conditions will be made on next Tuesday. At that time the warehouses of the company will be filled and immediate demands of the retailers will be taken care of. It is expected that the work of installation will require a period of thirty-five to forty days. This will be the first pause in the operation of the mill since it was established about thirty-three years ago. Of course, new machinery has come into use in the institution during that time, but it has never been necessary to shut down entirely. The re-establishment of the plant now under way is to be thoroughly done. When the mill starts its operation again a month hence it will be of the most modern and most efficient type. The principal products of this company are Perfection flour, well known here by practically every housewife, and a number of cereal products, chief of which is probably the mill's rolled barley. It is said by a good many retailers that this barley product is the most popular article of that character that comes into their stores. Regular session on Thursday evening. There were present Mayor Stark, Trustees Backs, Gates, Mann and Gibbs. The trustees voted to appoint O. E. Steward city manager, which was a compliment to Mr. Steward. H. G. Ames asked for re-appointment as city attorney. Wm. P. Webb, Jr., also filed an application for the position. Backs moved that Ames' application be accepted, seconded by Mann. Gates moved that Webb's be accepted, which was seconded by Gibbs. Upon roll call, Stark, Backs and Mann voted for Ames, Gates and Gibbs voting for Webb. Upon the motion of Gibbs, seconded by Gates, Ames election was made unanimous. Mr. Ames thanked the board for the honor. The applications of W. A. Wallace for rate collector, and J. S. Howard for recorder were referred to the city manager. The application of A. W. Wood for city marshal, upon motion of Trustee Mann, was laid over for further reconsideration. Several bids were received for sinking a new water well at the plant, also for casing. The bids were rejected and the board decided to go into the open market and award the contracts. Joseph Lieb was awarded contract to furnish motor, at a cost of $1060. The Gazette was awarded printing contract for ensuing year. MOTOR DEALERS PICNIC The Orange County Motorcycle club will have its first official outing since organization Saturday at Huntington Beach. Some "secret stuff" is going to be pulled and for this reason the plans cannot be divulged further than to say that there will be some real sport during the afternoon and a weiner bake in the early evening. Decision to have the outing was made at the meeting of the club in Orange Tuesday night. Secretary Trumpy was authorized to extend invitations to the Los Angeles and Hemet clubs to join in the outing and it is expected that a number of members of each will accept the opportunity to share the pleasures of the afternoon with the Orange County Motorcyclist club. Members of the county club will gather at the new club rooms in the Opera House block at Santa Ana in mill starts its operation again a month hence it will be of the most modern and most efficient type. The principal products of this company are Perfection flour, well known here by practically every housewife, and a number of cereal products, chief of which is probably the mill's rolled barley. It is said by a good many retailers that this barley product is the most popular article of that character that comes into their stores. The increased production of Perfection flour will no doubt add a great many thousand dollars to the revenue that comes into the county and the expansion of the industry relative to the barley and other cereal products will provide a ready market for the county's crops as well as meet a popular demand. John R. Gardiner, president and chief stockholder of the company, has made it plain that he will spare no expense in making his mill one of the most efficient in the southland. Fullerton stood fourth among 31 schools at the state track meet held Saturday at Bakersfield. Hartranft took second place in the discus event, losing by a scant 8 inches, his throw being 123 feet. Hawkins was nosed out in the 100 and 220 yard dashes, although the winning time was not under the record which he has made several times. Coach Culp refuses to lay any blame but it is known that there was some dissatisfaction on account of the starter, Anton Megis, formerly of Stanford and now living in San Francisco. It is said the methods used in the north differ somewhat from those used in the southern schools and this worked to the disadvantage of the boys from the Southern California schools. Orange Tuesday night. Secretary Trumpy was authorized to extend invitations to the Los Angeles and Hemet clubs to join in the outing and it is expected that a number of members of each will accept the opportunity to share the pleasures of the afternoon with the Orange County Motorcycle club. Members of the county club will gather at the new club rooms in the Opera House block at Santa Ana in time to get to Huntington Beach by noon. All are expected, as far as possible, to wear motorcycle suits. It is not compulsory to meet and go over with the bunch, but it is the wish of the officers that as many as can do so. However, anyone wanting to go over earlier for a day's outing at the beach may feel at perfect liberty to do so. The first regular meeting of the club to be held at the new club quarters will be held next Tuesday night. Members are urged to be out, as there are some very important matters coming up for discussion. It is said that the officers have a number of new things to "spring" on the members. It is expected a heavy vote will be polled at the primary next Tuesday by the republicans. Both the Johnson and Hoover forces are out to win, and all the republicans who favor either candidate will probably vote. Up to the present writing there appears to be no excitement among the democrats, as they are merely passing the buck to the delegates. County Clerk Backs is mailing out sample ballots this week instructing the voters how to vote next Tuesday at the primary election. Every registered voter in the county will get one.
