COMMERCE DEPARTMENT AFTER FOREIGN TRADE Secretary Hoover Lending Assistance to the Export Business As a result of an appropriation by the congress of approximately 30 per cent more money or the foreign trade division of the United States department of commerce the activities of that division for the coming year will be appreciably expanded. Under the administration of Secretary Hoover the foreign trade bureau of the department of commerce has been given the emphasis and prominence that it deserves and which is necessary if the United States is to remain a power in world trade and keep pace with her competitors. As evidence of increasing interest among American business men and concerns in foreign trade problems, the daily number of inquiries addressed to the department of commerce has increased three-fold within the last year. At present from 1800 to 2000 questions of this character are received at the department of commerce every day. As evidenced of the degree to which Secretary Hoover has "spread up" his foreign trade work it may be stated that the daily number of reports from the consular service abroad received by the foreign trade bureau has increased from an average of 70 to an average of 120. The increased appropriations which will be available for this work will be devoted largely to the strengthening of existing organization rather than the addition of any new units. An immediate strengthening will be made in the foreign field service. A number of high grade specialists in American export commodities will be immediately assigned to such important world commercial centers as London, Berlin, Paris, Rome and Madrid. In response to requests by American interests and foreign trade an officer and Scott only 42. Crushing as this was, on the popular vote Franklin Pierce received the ballots of 1,601,274 citizens, while Winfield Scott had 1,386,580; that is, the losers had five votes for every six who supported the winning ticket. It might be that the Whig party was about to die, but the Whigs were not a dwindling band like unto the federalists; there were enough of them to form a strong opposition. Free soil men, both Whigs and Democrats, had voted for John P. Hale, and his support, added to that of Scott, left Pierce out of more than three millions a clear majority of only 58,896. Blaine's comment is warranted. "Thoughtful men, wise in the administration of government, skilled in the management of parties, would have found in these figures food for reflection and abundant reason for hoisting cautionary signals along the shores of the political sea." There are Republican speakers and editors who have not considered these figures, and who have not estimated the strength of the Free Soil Democracy. Some of those who in 1948 helped Van Buren to defeat Cass were merely in a passing fit of bad humor; others came back in 1852 to the regular ranks with misgivings, and were starled at the object surrender of Pierce to the slave-holders. When the orders were given, when the Missouri compromise was repealed, more than forty northern Democrats in congress refused to do as the south bade them. Young voters who have read "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and have some knowledge of Whittier's poems may well compare with the great novel and the stirring lines these facts. There was in the republic a great host of men who dreaded slavery's aggression, and were prepared to resist it. Even if the Whigs should rally there were Free Soil Democrats who would join them. Even if the Free Soil Democrats should resolve on a second bolt there were Whigs who would not en PARENTS ASSEMBLY Even during the child age qualities that make leadership is as mature of the parents.

An immediate strengthening will be made in the foreign field service. A number of high grade specialists in American export commodities will be immediately assigned to such important world commercial centers as London, Berlin, Paris, Rome and Madrid. In response to requests by American interests and foreign trade an office will be opened at Athens, Greece for the purpose of making a first-hand close range study of opportunities for American trade in the Mediterranean and Balkan sphere. The far east will be given additional attention by an increase in foreign trade experts at various points in China, East Indies, the Malay states, Siam and the Straits Settlement. New offices will be opened at Calcutta and Hong Kong. The personnel now at Shanghai, China, and Melbourne, Australia, will be strengthened. Particular attention will be paid to Latin-American trade. Additional trade commissioners will be sent to Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Mexico City and elsewhere in Central and South America. A new post will be established in the republic of Colombia and the offices at Havana, Cuba, will be increased in importance so that the trade commissioner located there will have charge of all the West Indies. The personnel of the various divisions in the home office at Washington which come in contact with foreign trade will be strengthened. This will include the division of foreign tariffs, the statistical division, the trade information division, which embraces the publicity work, and the specialties division. The latter will be considerably expanded under an expert whose wide experience in export business will make him authority as an adviser to the whole bureau on matters of export taxique, merchandising problems, etc. All told, the department of commerce expects with the additional appropriations to not only increase the quality of service which it now furnishes American concerns interested in foreign trade but through this improved service it expects to assist America to capture her rightful share of foreign business. Young voters who have read "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and have some knowledge of Whittier's poems may well compare with the great novel and the stirring lines these facts. There was in the republic a great host of men who dreaded slavery's aggression, and were prepared to resist it. Even if the Whigs should rally there were Free Soil Democrats who would join them. Even if the Free Soil Democrats should resolve on a second belt there were Whigs who would not enter their ranks. But if a new party came, if it was prepared to recognize the party which had elected Jackson and the party which had elected Taylor, that party had a good fighting chance. While the Whigs had been ejected, they had not been exterminated. While seemingly the Free Soil movement was spent force there were signs of life—at least the ashes were unpleasantly warm for any one who insisted on trampling over them. There were then many who could recall Jefferson's words against slavery and Madison's dislike of the institution. When the Republican party prepared for a national contest it chose as its candidate John C. Fremont, a southern man, a pupil from the old Democratic school, the son-in-law of Benton, the greatest of the southern senators. Four years later it chose Abraham Lincoln, a Whig, a native if Kentucky, the state Clay had so long repretented. Reproached as it was for being sectional, the new party had the 'exultant nationality' which Samuel J. Tilden claimed for his followers. Since its accession to power the Republican party has protected the industries of the south as well as those of the north. It has regarded the growth of all sections as a matter of primary importance, and the vote it received as a secondary matter. The development of all parts of the union has been in its mind and purpose. As it started out to be, what its opponent claimed to be, national, it is now seeking to benefit all portions of the union. It is significant that its first and second candidates saw all this—that one had crossed the mountains and passed over the plains; that the other had gone down the great river and sought to be commissioner of the land office. It means a great deal that the Pathfinder and the flatboatman were the nominees of 1856 and 1860.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN ITS EARLY YEARS Facts in history may be so conspicuous that they enter the most mesagre text book, and other facts of possibly equal importance are like a geological treasure hidden behind a bush—they do not obtrude themselves on the passer-by, they rather come out after reflection and observation. In a year that will choose a new house before a contest that prepares the way for a greater one, it is not amiss to look at the sanguine spirit of the infant Republican party. Why was it that it so cheerily rallied round the Fremont standard, grieved so little over defeat, and so resolutely prepared for the next battle? Following the counsel of the prophet we may go to the party's origin, look unto the rock whence it was hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence it was digged. There we may find data that many overlook, or glance at in a superficial manner. We may even see that statements widely believed are incomplete, that accompanying evidences has been forgotten or ignored. Take the common saying that the Republican party was born after the Whig party had been crushed into fragments, and the phrase seems a sweeping one. Pierce in 1852 carried twenty seven states, Scott carried only four. Pierce won 254 electoral votes, SUPERVISORS' PROCEEDINGS Map of tract No. 288 was accepted as the official plotting of said tract, and the chairman was authorized to approve bond on map of tract No. 288. The chairman was authorized to approve bond on maps of tract Nos. 292, 293, 294, 295 and 275, and maps of tract Nos. 292, 293, 294, 295 and 275 were accepted as the official plotting of said tracts.

You can get into nearly as much trouble by loving everybody as by hating everybody. PARENTS AS TEACHERS Even during the actual school life of the child the development of the qualities that make for superiority and leadership is as much the responsibility of the parents as of the teachers. It is no exaggeration to say that the school simply supplements the home in this endeavor. Education is often confused with the formal methods used in the classroom, but becoming educated and going to school are by no means synonymous. Education is largely a process of acquisition and enrichment, what ever else we may think of it. And it is no reflection upon the schools to say that this acquisition and enrichment take place to a great extent outside their walls. It has been said that all though is a mirror. Perhaps this is something of and exaggeration. But it is an opposite truism when applied to the thinking of the child in his pre-school years. Up to about the third year of his life the child imitates, in a non purposive manner, all the actions within the range of his immediate experience. Parents and adults especially are mimicked, but pets and inanimate mechanical objects are by no means excluded. In this formative period the child probably learns more in a day than he will later learn in a month. The acquisition is easy and spontaneous. So far as the child is concerned, it is also aimless, and is largely a matter of imitation or absorption. It rests with the parents to give it purpose and direction. If the child lives with a stammerer, the child, 400, will stammer. If the people around him speak well and correctly, the child will learn to use appropriate forms and sequences through simple imitation, and he will have nothing to unlearn later when the school takes up language habits. ties, according to the statement of the commission. The supervisors of the various counties and the railroads are asked to designate some one to accompany representatives of the commission on the inspection trips. The supervisors representing each district to be inspected is desired when possible to become a member of the inspecting party and each railroad is asked to delegate an official with authority to discuss the road's position with reference to any suggested improvement. Recommendations embodied in the interrupted survey, nearly all of which have been carried out, included the removal of 1070 obstructions to view, the placing of 358 overhead signs, the closing of 495 unimportant crossings, the installation of 242 automatic flagmen, 17 human flagmen, 27 warning bells, 17 crossing gates and the changing of the location of 306 warning signals. When a candidate tells you how much he admires the man who is running against him, you have a right to laugh. CONVINCING TESTIMONY Given By Many Anaheim People.

TO RESUME CROSSING SURVEY Announcing its intention of completing a general grade crossing survey, interrupted by the war, the railroad commission has addressed communications to boards of supervisors and to railroads asking for their co-operation. The survey was begun in 1916 and discontinued October, 1917. During that time 7094 inspections were made and 3000 improvements were effected as a result of recommendations looking toward greater safety to the public. There was no cost, or only nominal cost to the cities and councils. Who used Doan's Kidney Pills—Who found the remedy effective—Such statements prove merit. You might doubt an utter stranger. You must believe Anaheim people. Here's Anaheim proof. Verify it. Read. Investigate. Be convinced. You'll find why Anaheim folks believe in Doan's. Ask your neighbor! J. A. Laffoon, retired farmer, 417 Elm St., says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are an old stand-by with me and I don't know how I would have made out without them. I got so bad off with kidney trouble, I could hardly keep going. My back ached constantly and made it hard for me to do any stooping or lifting work. My kidneys were out of order, too. I used Doan's Kidney Pills from Anaheim's Drug Store and they just suited my case. Doan's soon put me on my feet. The backache let up and my kidneys were regulated." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Laffoon had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y.
