S. FIVE BILLIONS Declaring that five billions of dollars will be saved the taxpayere of the United States as the result of cutting down battleship construction, Senator J. S. Frelinghuysen, of New Jersey, sums up the accomplishments of the conference on limitation of armaments as of incalculable advantage to civilization. He enumerates these accomplishments as follows: 1. It has brought about an agreement to scrap the Anglo-Japanese alliance, long regarded in many quarters as a menace to the United States. 2. It has removed for all time the war cloud which for years has darkened our western horizon, by proving to the American people that suspicions of their motives and intentions of Japan were unjustified. 3. It has brought about an agreement of the five leading naval powers to limit naval armament, the most costly of the modern engines of war. 4. By providing in the four power treaty a simple and effective machinery for the friendly discussion of dit upon the possibilities of another world war. It is likewise difficult to estimate accurately the material benefits which will accrue from the labors of this distinguished body of statesmen. It is difficult, because no one can foretell to what extremes the nations might have been led if a halt had not been called in the heart-breaking competition for huge fleets of costly dreadnaughts. It is possible to estimate, however, and with reasonable accuracy, the immediate saving to the taxpayers of the United States through the inauguration of the Hughes naval limitation program. Since the memorable day when that program was cast upon the world like a bomb shell, experts have been giving their attention to this matter. They estimate that approximately five billions of dollars will be saved to the taxpayers of this nation during the fifteen years of the life of the new naval treaty. REALTY DEAL ROW Illness of an attorney in the case of L. J. Wester and George W. Young, against B. F. Pinson and H. D. Thurber, set for trial Thursday before Superior Judge Z. B. West, caused indemnite postponement in the court battle over a $1000 realty commission. Wester and Young, La Habra real estate dealers, sued the Fullerton realty firm of Pinson and Thurber for the commission mentioned, in connection with the sale of J. J. Lilley's five-acre citrus and oil property at Richfield in July, 1920. Wester, besides claiming a commission as agent, was one of the alleged buyers of the Lilley property. According to the defendants, he was the sole buyer, although he claims that O. E. Hersey, F. N.

It has brought about an agreement of the five leading naval powers to limit naval armament, the most costly of the modern engines of war. 4. By providing in the four power treaty a simple and effective machinery for the friendly discussion of differences that may arise in the Pacific, is has inaugurated a new era which well may be called "The Age of Reason," thus reducing to the absolute minimum the danger of serious misunderstandings in that region. 5. It has brought about the ostracization of the submarine as a ruthless destroyer of commerce, and branded as pirates those who are guilty of such practices as characterized the last war. 6. It has brought about the formal condemnation by the nations assembled of the deadly poison gas, which wrought such havoc among our gallant soldiers in France. 7. It has achieved the settlement of the troublesome Yap controversy, a sort of hangover from the Paris peace conference, which for a time threatened to embroil us with all the allied powers. 8. It has brought about an agreement between the United States, Great Britain, Japan, France, Italy and Holland for the distribution and control of the former German cables in the Pacific. 9. By the proposed nine power treaty respetting China, it has brought about the acceptance of the Root resolutions, calculated to prevent injustice to China and friction among the powers as a result of clashes of interests in China; and by the specific terms of that agreement it has guaranteed the open door, removed the evils of special privilege, rid China of foreign troops, foreign postoffices, and foreign leaseholders, and put her in a fair way to work out her destiny as a sovereign and independent nation. 10. It has virtually brought about the settlement of the difficult Shantung question, as a direct result of the good offices of Mr. Hughes and Mr. Balfour. 11. It undoubtedly will bring about a declaration of principles, pledging the nations to respect the integrity of Siberia and to make no encroachments upon her territory. Wester and Young, La Habra real estate dealers, sued the Fullerton realty firm of Pinson and Thurber for the commission mentioned, in connection with the sale of J. J. Lilley's five-acre citrus and oil property at Richfield in July, 1920. Wester, besides claiming a commission as agent, was one of the alleged buyers of the Lilley property. According to the defendants, he was the sole buyer, although he claims that O. E. Hensley, E. N. Dunbar, John Leuhm and R. F. Frantz joined with him in purchasing the ranch for $27,500. Wester and Young claim that Pinson and Thurber collected $1000 commission from Lilley and that they, the plaintiffs, received none. Pinson and Thurber admit that they collected $1000, but they assert that they were entitled to it and that there was supposed to be a commission of $2500 paid on the sale. Wester and Young to get $1000 and R. O. Goodson to receive $500. They got theirirs and Goodson got his, they say. If Wester and Young didn't get theirirs, it wasn't the fault of the defendants, is the attitude taken by Pinson and Thurber. The plaintiffs contend that the defendants, acting as agents for Lilley, procured the buyers through them, Wester and Young. The defendants deny that they were Lilley's agents, but admit that they had spoken to Wester and Young about the place and the privilege of retaining $2500 as commission if it was sold, the commission to be divided as mentioned. Subsequently, they say, Wester arranged directly with Lilley for an option on the property and later purchased it himself. Attorney Clyde Bishop, of Santa Ana, represents the defendants, H. Floyd Snyder being counsel for the plaintiffs. ORANGE COUNTY APPLES Directors of the Costa Mesa Apple Growers' association were chosen at a meeting of the association held Tuesday night. Those selected to guide the destinies of the organization for the coming year are D. J. Dodge, Geo. Waterman, H. B. Woodrough, W. W. Middleton and F. E. Russell. In addition to the selection of the new board of directors, the members, a large proportion of whom were in attendance, outlined plans for a most active year and in connection with the active part which the association pro- It has virtually brought about the settlement of the difficult Shantung question, as a direct result of the good offices of Mr. Hughes and Mr. Balfour. 11. It undoubtedly will bring about a declaration of principles, pledging the nations to respect the integrity of Siberia and to make no encroachments upon her territory. 12. It has inaugurated a new era of open diplomacy, thoroughly disproving the theories of the old school diplomats and demonstrating that delicate international negotiations may be carried on successfully with the full knowledge of the people. 13. It has demonstrated the force of a righteously indignant public opinion when applied to a recalcitrant nation, as in the case of France's attitude toward the reduction of land armaments and limitation of submarines. 14. And last, but not least, it has contributed immeasurably to the good will and good understanding of the peoples of the world, by fostering what the president likes to call "The Conference Spirit"—the willingness on the part of men of all nationalities to get around a table and discuss their differences before a disastrous war has taken place, rather than at the peace table after millions of lives have been lost and billions of treasure have been spent. These briefly are the achievements of the Washington conference called by President Harding, and directed so ably by Secretary Hughes. It is humanly impossible to estimate—and I might add, to overestimate—the moral benefit to the world arising from this conference. By moral benefits I mean its contributions to a better understanding among the nations, and its consequent inhibitions Antonio Yorba, 69 years old, died on last Thursday at the home of his daughter, Mrs. A. M. Supulveda, at El Modena. Funeral services were held Saturday morning, at 10 o'clock, at St. Joseph's Catholic church. Mr. Yorba was one of the early Spanish pioneers of southern California, having been born at San Juan Capistrano, where his parents were also born. For several years Mr. Yorba had been living in Orange, but for the last week of his life he was with his daughter at El Modena. He is survived by his wife and four daughters, Growers' association were chosen at a meeting of the association held Tuesday night. Those selected to guide the destinies of the organization for the coming year are D. J. Dodge, Geo. Waterman, H. B. Woodrough, W. W. Middleton and F. E. Russell. In addition to the selection of the new board of directors, the members, a large proportion of whom were in attendance, outlined plans for a most active year and in connection with the active part which the association proposes to take in business affairs. Lew H. Wallace was selected to act as publicity director for the association for the fiscal year. While no definite decision was reached, there was considerable discussion of proposed sites for the new packing house which it is planned to build to handle the rapidly expanding Costa Mesa apple business. Nor is this packing house to be the only building constructed, other business structures needed in connection with the work, also being discussed. The members of the association also planned to conduct a prize campaign for a suitable label for the association's product. A prize of $5 will be given for the best label design, details of the competition to be announced later.

The club, which started with a tentative membership of approximately 400, was created in anticipation of the First National bank of Santa Ana erecting a new home on the southwest corner of Fourth and Main streets. The club tentatively planned to occupy one or two floors of this building. The club has approximately $2000 on hand. This sum came from members who advanced $5 each as part of their initiation fee. Delay in construction of the bank building has resulted in proposals that the club erect a building to occupy one or two stories, the ground floor to be devoted to business rooms. Thus, at the same time that it acquired a permanent home, the club would have an asset in the way of a revenue-producing building, it was pointed out. Mit Phillips, one of the men keen for the building plan, said that he believed there would be no difficulty in raising $150,000 for such a structure. Charles F. Smith, president of the Chamber of Commerce, and one of the men active in the organization of the club, stated that in all probability D. Eyman Huff, president, would be requested to call the board of directors together in the next few days for consideration of plans looking toward making the club a functioning organization. Should it be decided to proceed with building under the plans discussed, or should it be decided to secure quarers other than in the proposed First National bank building, it may be necessary to reorganize, it was stated. Plans for reorganizing their co-operative exchange system and the proposition of entering into a ten-year selling contract, at a price based on the average-selling price of honey for the past ten years were presented to a large group of bee men of Orange county at a meeting held at Orange county farm bureau headquarters recently. W. W. Culver, vice-president of the California Honey Producers' Cooperative exchange, and Myron H. Wells, market director of the exchange, were present at the gathering, and presented the reorganization plans. Under the plans outlined by Culver and Wells, the reorganization scheme will eliminate local associations and aid in the centralization of the activities of Orange county honey producers to stabilize the price of honey, it is claimed. The new contract, which includes the establishment of a central warehouse in Los Angeles, so that the respective producers could actively co-operate with those in charge of the plant, was presented to the county bee men to sign. The recent rains indicate a good honey crop, providing that a prolonged heat wave does not come. Indications point to the best crops in the history of the industry, and it is imperative that the bee men get together and centralize their activities as much as possible.

Eyman Huff, president, would be requested to call the board of directors together in the next few days for consideration of plans looking toward making the club a functioning organization. Should it be decided to proceed with building under the plans discussed, or should it be decided to secure quarers other than in the proposed First National bank building, it may be necessary to reorganize, it was stated. Club membership papers expressly stated that the new club would have a location in the bank building. It is the opinion of Smith that a change would necessitate re-signing of members, with refund of the initiation fee to those who may not now be in position to carry out the obligation assumed. FACTORY FOR WINTERSBURG A factory enterprise for Wintersburg is in prospect with the organization of the Ulrich Tubing Draining company, a stock company with a capitalization of $15,000, and with Wintersburg and Smeltzer capital in control. It is said the stock is being absorbed rapidly by residents of those communities. Frank Ulrich, proprietor of the Wintersburg blacksmith shop, is the organizer and president and manager of the new enterprise. The company will erect a building and install beside a modern machine and blacksmith shop a plant for manufacturing tube drainers, an oil well accessory invented by Ulrich. Ulrich secured the patent several years ago and tests have shown the equipment effective in the elimination of waste of oil in drilling. It also makes working around an oil well cleaner work. The drainer is placed at the bottom of the tubing and automatically permits oil that comes to the surface under present methods to flow back into the well. It also has the same effect in case the pump sands up or the cage bursts. The new building will be located on the Ulrich lots west of his blacksmith shop, one half of which has been torn away to make room for the new structure. The shop is to be one-story, 48 by 60 feet, of wood construction and cement floor. The foundation is now in and construction work will start Monday of next week, with Ulrich, F. R.

Anaheim women know how the aches and pains that often come when the kidneys fall make life a burden. Backache, hip pain, headaches, dizzy spells, distressing urinary troubles, are frequent indications of weak kidneys and should be checked in time. Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kidneys only. They attack kidney diseases by striking at the cause. Here's proof of their merit in an Anaheim woman's words: Mrs. Lizzie Neiman, 425 E. Adele St., says: "I have often used Doan's Kidney Pills when my kidneys have troubled me and they have never failed to give good results. I gladly recommend Doan's to others. I had attacks of backache that made me miserable and I was often unable to do my housework, especially sweeping or lifting. I was annoyed by kidnev weakness, too. Doan's Kidney Pills always relieved these attacks, strengthening my back and kidneys." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Neiman had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y.
