Fred N. Bigelow, chief of the division of markets, and James P. Britt, assistant, have formulated plans for the control of the situation in the southern portion of the state and will institute a check on all shippers and receivers, in order to expedite the release of refrigerator equipment. Unless prompt and decisive action is taken, the fifty thousand refrigerator cars estimated to be required to move the grape crop of the state during September and October, will not be forthcoming, resulting in serious loss, not Mrs. L. writes: "I am convinced there is a difference baking powder.

The decision places lessees of oil wells on the same footing with the owners of the land leased so far as deductions for income tax purposes are concerned. Three hundred owners of boats of over five net tons which are used exclusively for trade have failed to register and are now liable to a penalty of $1000 each. Although these boats are tax-exempt their owners are required by law to register. Collector Goodcell advises these delinquents to get in touch with him immediately and thereby avoid further penalties. SHRINERS OF COUNTY TO HOLD A PICNIC Shriners of southern California are recalling with keen delight the many pleasing incidents of the ceremonial held at Orange county park a year ago, when it was announced that Al Malaika temple will conduct another ceremonial at the park, October 21, 1922, with the Orange County Shrine club as host. As a preliminary to the development of plans to show wearers of the fez another good time, officers and members of the entertainment committee held a meeting to prepare for the big event. D. Eyman Huff, president of the club, issued the call to the members to meet. Kenneth Gillette, director of the temple ceremonials, will assist in the development of the program. George A. Fitch, recorder of the temple, in advising Huff of acceptance of the local club's offer to entertain for the ceremonial, said: "Other considerations entered into our deliberations as to what portion of our jurisdiction should be favored with the next ceremonial, but when we think of all that your wonderful club has done to advance the interest of Al Malaikah temple, there is but one answer to your invitation. We always have such a splendid time at Orange county park, where-the atmosphere is surcharged with the spirit of Shrinedom." SAVED $20,000,000 Santa Ana and Orange county residents are keenly interested in the announcement of the state railroad commission that $20,350,000 has been paid on child stealing.

Should this war spread promises to spread, the rope is sealed. The continent could not wish such shock to their moral integrity and survival. A premature armistic edy. The present condemnation tragedy. And the rest between the two is apparent. WAR ON NARCOTICS California is leading the whole United States in its warfare on narcotics, according to Collector of Internal Revenue Rex B. Goodcell. The seizures of drugs and convictions obtained by the revenue department in this state hold the federal record. In one year 6203 ounces of narcotics were confiscated by the internal revenue men as against 5764 ounces in New York and 4940 ounces in Virginia. Regarding convictions 169 were secured here and only 88 in New York and 56 in Pennsylvania. Eleven thousand persons registered in California under the Harrison narcotics act are authorized to handle narcotics. The internal revenue department plays no favorites. This is shown by a ruling just made that while field officers in the revenue service may deduct amounts expended for meals and lodging for such days as they receive per diem allowance, the amount of their allowance must be included in their gross income when reported for income tax purposes. In another ruling relative to the deduct deductibility of money expended by a taxpayer in making trips in search of work, the department holds such amounts expended are personal expenses and are not deductible from gross income. Lessees of oil and gas wells have won an important victory through a law order written by Solicitor General Mapes and which was received by Collector Goodcell a few days ago. The decision holds that the revenue act of Santa Ana and Orange county residents are keenly interested in the announcement of the state railroad commission that $20,350,000 has been saved by the people of California through reduced electricity, gas, railroad and express rates. "The enormous saving marks the swing of public utility charges toward normal levels," said Harley W. Brundage, president of the commission. "To me, this showing is significant as completely justifying utilities regulation. The total amount is equivalent to a reduction of $6 a year for every man, woman and child in California." "This saving to consumers has been effected notwithstanding the fact that public utility rates have been maintained at all times at levels distinctly below the 'cost of living' figures compiled by the federal government and the standard commodity price indicates." "The figures show that during the late peak of prices the utilities were not permitted to profiteer and at the same time they were given reasonable increases so they could function properly. "Obviously, too, regulation would fall if it were not vigilant to take advantage, promptly and boldly, of every opportunity to keep utility prices in line, even a little ahead, of a declining commodity market." Where there's a will there's a sore toe. ANAHEIM GAZETTE ites: there is a difference in I have been using any ten years but my cakes better since I bought a ing Powder.

These hopes seem to be withering in the flames of hatred. Evidently the time for peace had not come. Human wisdom had failed to meet the august occasion when the destiny of civilization has been thrust into its hands, to make or to mar. The opportunity arrived and it was rejected. When the armistice was signed many soldiers wept and cursed. They from the state fair will require much more room than at first allotted to this show. The exhibit from the United States department of agriculture requires additional space over last year. Several prominent co-operative agriculture organizations of the state, such as the prune and appricot association, the Raisin Growers’ association, Fig and Peach association and others have promised space for the fine show they are bringing. A large number of one-man farm showings have asked for space this year. To satisfy all and at the same time meet demands for the industrial exhibits that wish to find locations is becoming a very difficult task. All those who are planning to have exhibits of any kind, whether from orchard, farm or herd at the Southern California fair at Riverside are urgent to get their entries in early, as space is at a premium and those who get in first naturally have first consideration. If you have agricultural or horticultural products worthy of exhibiting get busy and notify the secretary immediately. In fact, it is desired to have early entries in all departments. If you have no premium list, we will gladly send you one on enquiry. WOODS IS FREE J. K. Foods, Los Angeles real estate man, twice found guilty in the superior court on a charge of selling land under false pretenses, is at liberty under a $1000 bond, following his release from the Orange county jail. Woods was found guilty in January of selling Aqueduct City and to Mrs. Laura B. Resh, of Anaheim. Mrs. Resh alleged in the trial that Woods had represented the land as being in a thriving city in an oil field. Aqueduct City, existing principally in name only, is on the Mojave desert. The appellate court held that the sale of land supposed to be The world had entertained high hopes that with the closing of the great war a new era had been ushered in. These hopes seem to be withering in the flames of hatred. Evidently the time for peace had not come. Human wisdom had failed to meet the august occasion when the destiny of civilization has been thrust into its hands, to make or to mar. The opportunity arrived and it was rejected. When the armistice was signed many soldiers wept and cursed. They had gone into the field inspired of ambition to accomplish it, when by force of arms they could have established justice, exacted penalties fairly due, and put the fear of God into the hearts of tyrants, their weapons were stricken from their hands. Nothing had been determined except that no single power could be permitted to trample all others into the dust. Civilization attacked, had defended itself. It failed to buttress itself against future attack. The result is now to be seen in the blazing fury of the Turk, and the proffer of aid to this diabolic agency from soviet Russia. The allies permitted Constantine to go back to a throne to which he had proved himself unworthy. His immediate thought was to wrest Turkish territory to his own uses. The allies were engaged in fixing terms touching mutual interests. The recrant and greedy Constantine started hostilities that have unloosed a torrent of atrocious activity, threatening once more to involve the whole of Europe in a more fearful struggle than that from which the continent has just emerged, wounded and impoverished, barely able to maintain organized existence. Should this war spread, as now it promises to spread, the loom of Europe is sealed. The people of that continent could not withstand another such shock to their moral and physical integrity and survive. A premature armistice was one tragedy. The present condition is another tragedy. And the relationship between the two is apparent. SAYS ARREST MISTAKE Arrested at Costa Mesa, where he had gone to visit his sister, following the mysterious disappearance of a 16-year-old girl to whom he was said to have been paying some attentions, Pashley Nichols is at Liberty on bail pending a hearing on the charge of child stealing. LEAGUE BUTTS IN The league of nations has spent three years trying to gain prestige in Europe, and failed. Now it thinks there is a likely field for exploitation in South America, and reports say that the way to South American esteem is to be greased by the election of a league president from that continent. South Americans, however, are able to see beyond the end of their noses. As they become better aware of what the Monroe doctrine and the protection of the United States mean to them, there is a growing bond of intimacy with the people of this country. The attempt of the league of nations to butt in and disrupt the natural community of interest that does and should exist among all countries of the western hemisphere will come to naught. THE BLUE MR. BLYTHE Sam Blythe, a rehasher of political history who never in his life made a specific constructive suggestion, is out with an article criticizing the Republican administration and particularly condemning bureaucracy. Evidently Mr. Blythe, who used to sob every time Woodrow Wilson looked sad, does not know that bureaucracy made its greatest gains in American government under the recent Democratic regime. We challenge him to designate specifically which of the Wilson bureaus or commissions he thinks ought to be abolished. He says 90 per cent than men to fill them, radical workers are encouraged to make new demands and strike for their enforcement. The country is hillygly prosperous despite the rail and coal strikes. What it would have been without SAYS ARREST MISTAKE Arrested at Costa Mesa, where he had gone to visit his sister, following the mysterious disappearance of a 16-year-old girl to whom he was said to have been paying some attentions. Pashley Nichols is at Liberty on bail pending a hearing on the charge of child stealing. Nichols has been involved in difficulties since he is said to have induced the girl to leave home several days ago. The allegation is denied by Nichols, who claims that he knows nothing of the whereabouts of the girl, who has not been located. Nichols claims that relatives of the girl threatened him if he did not reveal where she had gone. This he was unable to do, Nichols told officers. Nichols is represented by Attorney M. B. Wellington, who secured his release from the county jail after he had been arrested on the child stealing charge by Under Sheriff E. E. French. Authorities are conducting a thorough investigation of the affair. It is thought that the girl might possibly have left home of her own accord. A FULL SHOW According to reports from the secretary's office, the Southern California fair this year will be a "full show." In practically every department it has been necessary to make more room or discover some plan to condense. The great agriculture tent with its showing of representative industries will be crowded from one end to the other. Some counties and some agricultural organizations who would like to come cannot be entertained. The big exhibit of the agricultural department specific constructive suggestion, is out with an article criticizing the Republican administration and particularly condemning bureaucracy. Evidently Mr. Blythe, who used to sob every time Woodrow Wilson looked sad, does not know that bureaucracy made its greatest gains in American government under the recent Democratic regime. We challenge him to designate specifically which of the Wilson bueaus or commissions he thinks ought to be abolished. He says 90 per cent of them are not worth 5 per cent of what they cost. Come on now, Sam, be specific in your condemnation of the autocrat before whose throne you used to drivel. SOMETHING TO STRIKE FOR Vice-President Coolidge says strikes are a sign of prosperity. In periods of depression, when there are more workmen than jobs, there are few walkouts, but when conditions are reversed, and there are more jobs than men to fill them, radical workers are encouraged to make new demands and strike for their enforcement. The country is hillyly prosperous despite the rail and coal strikes. What it would have been without them it is not difficult to imagine.
