Anaheim Gazette ESTABLISHED 1870 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entred at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter OFFICIAL CITY PAPER LET US GIVE THANKS If the Harding administration did nothing more than Americanize the foreign policy of the United States it would more than justify the tremendous majority the Republican party received at the polls last November. That the policy is clarified and completely Americanized becomes increasingly evident every day, in spite of the effort of the last ditch leaguers to create the impression that Uncle Sam is still flirting with the covenant. Let those who still reat under this impression read the excellent address of Secretary of State Hughes at Brown university last week in which he says that it is not desirable that America's helpful influence should be frittered away "by relating ourselves unnecessarily to political questions which involve rivalries of interests abroad with which we have no proper concern." Let them also take cognizance of the fact that direct negotiations have been begun between the United States and Japan for the settlement of the questions pending between them—negotiation that are being conducted by Baron Shidehara, the Japanese ambassador and Secretary Hughes. It behooves the American people to turn for a moment from the domestic on June 1, 1921, the number in file was 631,980, showing an increase during that period of 422,280. The number of awards for death and disability for the first period was 41,073; the number of awards at the end of the second period was 323,415, an increase during the second period of 282,342. For the first period the ratio was one claim pending to every two filed. For the second period, the ratio was one claim pending to every eight claims filed. DOES BLUE SKY LAW BENEFIT THE PUBLIC? Although California has a blue sky law, designed primarily to protect the inexperienced investor from the wiles of the bunko man, it is said that there are some dishonest, wild-cat, speculative schemes urged upon possible investors in the larger cities. Does it follow that the law is a failure? Must we conclude that blue sky supervision does not benefit the investing public? "There are laws directed against burglary, robbery, murder and rape," said Commissioner of Corporations E.C. Bellows today, "yet it is generally recognized that there are more of these crimes being committed than ever before within the memory of men now living. We do not therefore conclude that the laws are useless. We know that while we now suffer severely from the disorder and lawlessness prevalent throughout the country, conditions would be unspeakably worse but for the restraining influence of the terror of the law. "Similarly, blue sky supervision, though it does not and can not insure the unwary against all mischance, is undoubtedly a very real benefit to the investing public. It is not intended to relieve the investor from the responsibility of examining into the merits of a project before he decides to put his savings into it, but it does furnish the peace." "There is no attitude in the ree chairman of the committee, that science of government publicizes its president, Jr. "In a reputable occupant he who withholds activities is a per- "Mr. Adams' the word 'police' which it is most science and an thing altogether manipulation a motion of one's participation in Adams had in individual's own which he ascend sound conclusion those conclusions effect if possibility and admit course, include men of the highest but none the lowest practice of the" "There are so take a person themselves frost is not a allude merely est sense, for never be broug ard until men like an active does not necessitical politics we proach until it frool of men of fortunately, it men of the highest practical in th secure desira- ment of, for an not have go sarily to political questions which involve rivalries of interests abroad with which we have no proper concern." Let them also take cognizance of the fact that direct negotiations have been begun between the United States and Japan for the settlement of the questions pending between them—negotiation that are being conducted by Baron Shidehara, the Japanese ambassador and Secretary Hughes. It behooves the American people to turn for a moment from the domestic problems which bear down upon them and consider the present status of Europe. They will find plenty of inspiration for giving thanks that America escaped the league of nations. Not since the downfall of Napoleon have affairs on the continent been so unsettled. Russia is still a chaos. Poland, recently liberated, has ambitious which run counter to the interests of some of the larger powers, and are apt to kindle another European war at any moment. Silesia, involved in civil war is patrolled by yalled soldiers, and the Americans would be there, too, were we members of the league. Greece and Turkey are at war, and here, too, are the seeds of another general conflict. Great Britain has already sent word to the porte that an assault on Constantinople means war between Turkey and England. There is civil war in Ireland and unrest in the orient, with Persia and other Asiatic countries threatening to throw off the western Europe influence to embrace bolshevism. Even Great Britain, the strongest power of them all, seethes with unrest, and faces a general demoralization of industry because of the strike of the coal miners. Politics makes strange bedfellows in Europe as well as in America. There are abundant signs of differences between France, Great Britain and Italy. Great Britain interfered in behalf of Germany in the Silesian controversy, thereby offending the Poles and the French. And now comes a hint that there is brewing an economic understanding between France and Germany that would redound to the advantage of both nations—a possibility that is causing Great Britain concern. It is true that the league is not functioning, that the member nations are quarrelling and bargaining with no reference whatever to the rules of the league. Participation of America in all these quarrels has been avoided by the result on election day last November. Similarly, blue sky supervision, though it does not and can not insure the unwary against all mischance, is undoubtedly a very real benefit to the investing public. It is not intended to relieve the investor from the responsibility of examining into the merits of a project before he decides to put his savings into it, but it does furnish the means by which he may secure reliable information, instead of trusting implicitly in the statements of an irresponsible agent. "No securities can be sold to the public in this state by others than companies having permits, brokers and agents under blue sky supervision. These can hold their licenses only by conducting a straight, honorable business. This alone is a great protection to the investor, who is thus saved the artful attack of the smooth-tongued, conscienceless purveyor of worthless paper." "Blue sky supervision weeds out all palpably fraudulent projects at their Inception." "Blue sky supervision seeks to make advertising truthful." "Blue sky supervision gives the prospective investor opportunity to know what proportion of the proceeds from stock sales will be used to carry on the business, and what part goes into the pockets of the promoter. "Blue sky supervision prevents the promoter from realizing profits until they have been earned by the business, instead of lining his pockets with the proceeds of promotion stock sales, and getting out before real work has begun." "Blue sky supervision gives the investor the benefit of expert engineering and auditing examinations." "Can anyone honestly question the benefit to the investing public of such supervision." PROTECTION TO GROWERS With the Fordney tariff bill out of committee and carrying a one-cent tariff on oranges and two cents on lemons, citrus growers of Orange county and the state are jubilant in prospect of the measure being adopted. While the bill does not carry all the protection the citrus industry asked for, the growers are quite content.

It is true that the league is not functioning, that the member nations are quarrelling and bargaining with no reference whatever to the rules of the league. Participation of America in all these quarrels has been avoided by the result on election day last November. Let us therefore pause for a moment to give thanks. COMPENSATION CLAIMS The government has to date made a total disbursement of $226,486,891.34, in meeting both the compensation claims of former service men disabled by reason of wounds, injuries or disease incurred in the world war, and the death claims of the dependents of those who made the supreme sacrifice, according to an announcement of Director C. R. Forbes, of the bureau of war risk insurance. The disbursements for disability have aggregated $192,-677,589.48 and the death disbursements $33,809,301.86. For the month of May alone the total amount disbursed by the bureau for compensation purposes was $10,575,-416, the monthly payments on disability compensation claims for that period amounting to $9,145,288 and the monthly payments to the dependents of deceased soldiers amounting to $1,430,-128. Between June 1 and June 15 the bureau mailed 221,612 checks to cover this disbursement to former service men. The increase in the number of claims filed with the bureau has exceeded any estimate. The number of claims filed from the inception of the bureau to May 1919 was 209,700 while PROTECTION TO GROWERS With the Fordney tariff bill out of committee and carrying a one-cent tariff on oranges and two cents on lemons, citrus growers of Orange county and the state are jubilant in prospect of the measure being adopted. While the bill does not carry all the protection the citrus industry asked for, the growers are quite content. It is said, however, that they will carry the battle to the floor of congress to secure tariff they deem adequate for by-products. The growers asked a tariff of twenty-cents per gallon on citrus acid and the bill carries a tariff of ten cents. On citrate of lime, a twelve cent tariff was asked and two and a half cents is provided in the measure, which has been formally introduced in the house of representatives. The protection on by-products asked by the growers is deemed absolutely essential to the continued development of this industry. Walnut growers are given a measure of protection, the bill carrying a rate of two and one-half cents per pound for unshelled and five cents for shelled. Olives in brine carry a tariff of twenty cents per gallon. Beans are protected to the extent of one and one-quarter cents per pound. Here is the provision on sugar: "Sugar, tank bottoms, syrups of cane juice, molasses, testing not above seventy-five sugar degrees and all mixtures of sugar and water, 1.16 cents a pound and 0.04 of 1 cent per hundred additional for each additional sugar degree; molasses and syrups testing not above 48 per cent, 1 cent a gallon; maple sugar and syrup, 4 cents a pound; sugar cane, $1 a ton; sugar candies, 30 per cent."

Adams, chairman of the Republican national committee, that 'Politics' is the art and science of government,' says the Republican Publicity association, through its president, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr. "In a republic like ours it is the robbest occupation of citizenship and he who withholds himself from its activities is a peace time slacker." Mr. Adams was clearly not using the word 'politics' in the sense in which it is most commonly used. The science and art of government is some thing altogether different from the manipulation of elections for the promotion of one's own self interest. The participation in politics which Mr. Adams had in mind begins with the individual's own mental processes in which he ascertain facts and draws sound conclusions; afterward putting those conclusions into practical effect if possible by influencing legislation and administration, which, of course, includes the election of proper men of the highest ideals are very imputation none the less essential step in the practice of the art of politics. "There are some people who seem to take a personal pride in proclaiming themselves free from politics. Their boast is not a worthy one, even if they allude merely to politics in its narrowest sense, for practical politics will never be brought to the highest standard until men of the highest ideals like an active part in its affairs. This does not necessarily mean that practical politics will be fit subject for reproach until it shall be under the control of men of the highest ideals. Unfortunately, it frequently happens that men of the highest ideals are verd impractical in the means they adopt to secure desirable ends. In a government of, for and by the people, we can not have government by idealists in the background are the Plumb planters and their allies sounding the chorus of government ownership of railroads, mines and practically every form of industries, incited to their anti phonies by the example of those who ought to know better. Certainly if present tendencies are not repressed that socialism against which we all harangue, but the tents of which so many of us are avid to adopt, will eventually engulf us. Lenine has had his day with that insane idea, and Lenine has had enough, if reports are to be credited. A centralization of power is fast developing in this country which if not restrained, must terminate in a despotism the like of which was never known. Even now state lines become little more than boundaries of magnified voting precincts, and it would seem as if no move could be undertaken unless the president was approached to act as arbiter and give his sanction or dissent. MANY CLAIMS SETTLED During the past month over 181 different claims involving a total of $5600 damages, were settled by the Automobile Club of Orange county. According to W. Lester Tubbs, assistant to Manager A. S. Ralph, of the club, the number of accidents are on the increase. "Each year sees an increasing number of accidents," said Tubbs. "This increase is no doubt caused by the greater number of cars in use every year. Another factor in the cause of accidents, is the fact that today there are more kids driving cars than ever before. "Many people do not realize that insurance does not cover cars driven by anyone under 16 years of age. "A great many people, when stating the cause of their accidents, put them down as 'unavoidable.' This is a misnomer. The only unavoidable accident." KANSAS AND ARKANSAS Pronunciation of the Names Influenced by French Missionaries Ask a New Englander where the city of Little Rock is located and he'll say, "In Arkansas." Ask a native of Little Rock where he halls from and he'll say "Arkansaw." "Say!" says the N. E., "If Arkansas is 'Arkansaw,' why isn't Kansas 'Kansaw?'" And the answer is that once it was. The Arkansas were a tribe of Indians who roamed the region which now bears their name. When the French missionaries of the time of Marquette, came along, they attempted to reproduce phonetically in French the Indian sounds. So they selected "Arkansas" as the best concoction, for the French ending "as" is pronounced as a nasal "agh." As for Kansas, Cortez pronounced it Kansaw. In a military report sent at the time, the name was spelled Konsa, for that was the nearest English could come to reproducing, phonetically the French sounds. In the early days of Arkansas the pronunciation of the name of the state was a variable thing. From 1844 to 1848 Arkansas was represented in the senate by Chester Ashly, who was a New Englander, and Arbrose Simm, who hailed from Tennessee. Mr. Ashley didn't depart from "Arkansas," and Mr. Simm stuck to "Arkansaw." The vice-president at the time was George Dassan, of Pennsylvania, who it must be admitted, showed much tact; for when he spoke of the state to Ashley he said "Arkansas," and when he mentioned it to Simm he said "Arkansaw." Finally a committee was appointed to definitely settle the matter and Arkansaw won. never be brought to the highest standard until men of the highest ideals take an active part in its affairs. This does not necessarily mean that practical politics will be fit subject for reproach until it shall be under the control of men of the highest ideals. Unfortunately, it frequently happens that men of the highest ideals are verd impractical in the means they adopt to secure desirable ends. In a government of, for and by the people, we cannot have government by idealists alone. "The composite citizen is made up of millions of individuals, each dominated in most cases by self-interest. But because of the difference in the personal equations of the individual units making up the composite citizen, there is a corresponding difference in the interests dominating said ults, and while composite action is taking place, friction is developed, attrition results, selfishness is worn away, and general welfare is substituted before action is accomplished. Such will be the result if all citizens take an active part in politics—the science and art of government. If a few through laziness, false pride, or whatever other motive withdraw themselves from participation in the tasks of government, the result must be better or worse according to the character of the men and women who remain inactive. "At a time when bolshevism is destroying a nation unsurpassed in natural resources and possibilities and seeking to gain a foothold in our own nation with its resources only half developed, Mr. Adams could have uttered no more pertinent sentiment than his declaration that politics is the noblest occupation of citizenship and that he who withholds himself from its activities is peace time slacker. The nation needs its best and ablest citizens actively at work teaching sound economic doctrines, in season and out of season, and securing the practical adoption of those doctrines by nominating in the primaries and electing the polls men who are sincere advocates of the general welfare as distinguished from any local, class or selfish interest." POLITICAL OPIATES As evidences multiply of the earnest desire of the Harding administration to have less government business, increase is no doubt caused by the greater number of cars in use every year. Another factor in the cause of accidents, is the fact that today there are more kids driving cars than ever before. "Many people do not realize that insurance does not cover cars driven by anyone under 16 years of age. "A great many people, when stating the cause of their accidents, put them down as 'unavoidable.' This is a misnomer. The only unavoidable accidents are those caused by the breakage of some vital portion of the car, rendering control impossible. The greater percentage of all other accidents is caused by pure, unadulterated carlessness. In proportion to the number of cars, there are less accidents in the west than in the east. The auto clubs have secured legislation which tends to reduce the number of accidents, and it is a fact that a great many of the accidents are caused by out-of-state cars whose drivers are unfamiliar with our regulations. Proof of the legislation against accidents in the west is shown by the fact that the eastern insurance rates are nearly double those of the western clubs." GOVERNMENT AIDING Continuation of the policy of aiding the state of California in improving the highways of this state is announced. The United States bureau of public roads has signed with the state highway commission for the expenditure of the remaining money in the allotment of $2,896,071.77 given to California under the 1921 allotment of federal road moneys. The money will be spent on twenty-four state highway projects in California. All of the money available for California under the 1921 allowance is actually allotted to work under way or agreed upon. The money that will be available under the 1922 budget will have been spent or agreed upon before June 30, 1922. MILLIONS ADDED TO ROLL Several million dollars will be added to the total of the county's assessment roll. The assessment values are fixed upon a basis of how they stood at noon on the first Monday in March of this year. IN THE MAD RUSH There has been a certain amount of breeziness in the discussion, which centered around the relative virtues and accomplishments of the two sexes. "You men," said the advanced young woman, "think a great deal of yourselves because there is a shortage of your kind. Personally, I should not mind in the least living in a world where the men and the girls were separated by an ocean." The darling bachelor smiled at her. "I dare say you are right," he agreed. "Still, in the event you mention, I'm certain there would be a large number of women drowned."—Boston Globe. AN EXPERT "What is Wishby's method of approach when he wants a loan?" "Brisk and businesslike." "I see." "You would actually think you were making money by the transaction."—Birmingham Age1Herald. NOTICE OF ABANDONMENT OF HIGHWAY Notice is hereby given to all freeholders in Third road district that the hearing of the petition of John Stirrat et al., filed on the 5th day of July, 1921, to vacate, discontinue, abandon and abolish a certain highway (or certain highways, as the case may be) in Third Road District, in Orange County, California, has been set for Tuesday, the 26th day of July, 1921, at 10 o'clock a.m., at the room of the Board of Supervisors in the Court House at Santa Ana, California. Said road (or roads, as the case may be) is described as follows: Commencing at a point in the East line of Section 1, Twp. 4 South Range 10 West, S. B. B. & M., said point bearing North 0° 40' 20" West, $3.17 feet from the Southeast corner of said Section 1; thence North 50° 47' 46" East, 38.36 feet to a point 30 feet easterly and measured at right angles from the East line of said Section 1; thence POLITICAL OPIATES As evidences multiply of the earnest desire of the Harding administration to have less government business, the devotees of bureaucracy renew their mad drive to put the government into all sorts of business. There is a positive rash of headlines in the public prints declaring that the government must undertake this, or become a partner in that. Now it is a plan in the ofrm of a bill in congress whereby the government shall purchase agricultural products in this country and hawk them in the marketplaces of Europe, and $109,000,000 is asked to start this work. Again the government is asked to finance every country in Europe in order that they may trade with us. Here is a particular industry which by government legislation is presented with a copper-riveted monopoly on a certain commodity; and there is another industry which it is designed to curb by government license to operate. The government is pulled this way and hauled that—jammed into a crevice to make up a deficit, or strapped to a saddle to handicap a so-called 'trust,' or spliced to a guarantee of a profitable return on private capital. The foreign observer of "democracy in the making" must long ere this have reached the conclusion that this is a government of the government, by the government and for the government, and the only way democracy may participate in the shindig is to become attached to a government payroll. And MILLIONS ADDED TO ROLL Several million dollars will be added to the total of the county's assessment roll. The assessment values are fixed upon a basis of how they stood at noon on the first Monday in March of this year. The greatest share of the increase in the assessment comes from an increase in oil property values. Any taxpayer who objects to the assessment, fixed for him by the assessor's office has the right to appear before the board of equalization and enter a protest. A hearing upon each written protest will be held, testimony taken and a ruling entered for or against the protestant. In this way the figures fixed upon a piece of property by the assessor can be changed. In the years that Sleeper has been assessor protests have been few in number and changes by the board of equalization probably could be counted on the fingers of one hand. WELL MIXED William Lyon Phelps, the brilliant occupant of the English chair at Yale, has added a new mixed metaphor to his large and amusing collection. This addition is from one of the novels of W. L. George, the English writer whose recent American lecture tours failed so lamentably. Mr. George's gorgeously mixed metaphor runs: "The cloud that tried to stab their happiness was only a false rumor whose bitter taste could not splinter the radiance nor dim the effervescence of their joy."—Detroit Free Press.
