SINKING WATERS DISCUSSED AT MEETING SPEAKER TELL'S ASSOCIATED CHAMBERS SYSTEM IS PREFERABLE TO RESERVOIRS Tri-Counties Last Year Spread Five Times as Much Water in Santa Ana Basin as is Contained in Big Bear Lake—Charge is Made that Railroads are Fighting Orange County; Harbor—Wholesale Lumber Men Inspecting the Harbor. Erection of a dam to impound waters of the Santa Ana river would conserve no more water than can be conserved by development and completion of plans for spreading the waters of the stream in the upper reaches of the Santa Ana river valley, in the opinion of George Hinckley, civil engineer of Redlands, as expressed at the meeting of the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county, held at Brea. Hinckley is directing most of the activities of Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties in the co-operative effort to store waters in the gravel beds in the upper reaches of the river. The work is being done under appropriation of $2000 annually by the supervisional boards of the respective counties. He discussed the conservation work of the Tri-counties Reforestation committee and the program of the three counties. The engineer held out little encouragement for increasing the water supply in the Santa Ana river basin from developments following." Discussing a question of Fred Ahlborn, of Anaheim, as to when this county might benefit by terminal rates, Wallace said that such rates would not be effective until traffic was developed at the harbor. Wallace said that Orange county merchants directing shipments of goods to Orange county harbor could have such goods delivered at the port. Ahlborn suggested that merchants of the county co-operate in directing shipments to the harbor in the interest of developing commerce so that terminal rates would be available to the business men. Lake pointed out that there are now no facilities for handling such shipments upon arrival in the harbor and that commerce could not be expected until such facilities were provided. He believed that companies now engaged in rendering checking and receiving services at San Pedro could be induced to extend the service to Orange county harbor and Wallace promised to make an investigation and report at the next meeting. MOTOR NEWS There is a lot of trouble in store for motorists who pick Yucca blossoms this year, according to a warning just issued by the Automobile Club of Southern California. According to Los Angeles county forestry department officials, the Yuccas are just coming into bloom on the bills of the southern part of the state and will be more wonderful this year than ever before and just because they are going to be more wonderful the authorities are going to be more strict in arresting motorists who pick them. Every auto party which is found by forestry officials in Los Angeles county carrying Yucca bloom in the car will be arrested without question at once, according to S. J.

The work is being done under appropriation of $2000 annually by the supervisional boards of the respective counties. He discussed the conservation work of the Tri-counties Reforestation committee and the program of the three counties. The engineer held out little encouragement for increasing the water supply in the Santa Ana river basin, from which wells of this county draw their supply. He said there is a limit to the amount of water that will be available for pumping and that limit is forty per cent more than the amount in the basin at the time the water level in wells began to recede. The increased supply, he said, is obtainable only by sinking all the water of the river into gravel beds in the mountains. Hinckley pointed out that water saved through spreading in the gravel beds is used twice before reaching the Santa Ana basin. Water pumped and used in irrigation in the other two basins finds its way back into the basin from which wells of Orange county draw their supply. Hinckley compared the amount the three counties are spending annually, $6000, in conservation and flood control, and the $10,000,00) or more Los Angeles county is spending in conserving and controlling waters of the San Gabriel. Speaking of the spreading program of the Tri-counties organization, he said that last year 200,000 acre feet were stored, or about five times the amount of water in Big Bear lake. The lower gravel beds now have more water than ever before, he said. The engineer said that through spreading water in the river and its tributaries, floods such as obtained in 1916 could be entirely controlled. While admitting that he had no personal knowledge of the formations, Hinckley said that he believed location of a dam on the lower reaches of the river is impractical and that the cost of its construction would be prohibitive. The address of the engineer was very enlightening on the present and future water supply of Orange county. Declaring his belief that railroad men are fighting Orange county harbor in order to retain for San Pedro harbor lumber shipments, H. A. Lake, lumber merchant of Garden Grove, as Every auto party which is found by forestry officials in Los Angeles county carrying Yucca bloom in the car will be arrested without question at pace, according to S. J. Flintham of the forestry department. Other counties in the southern part of the state are at this time considering ordinances taking the picking of Yucca blooms a misdemeanor. In Los Angeles county there is a law prohibiting the cutting of Yucca stalks in the hills; It is pointed out that huge Yucca blooms when picked wilttade within a very short space of time and are useless for decorative purposes. This fact, however, has not deterred motorists from picking the flowers in the past, but now the long arm of the law is going to reach out and do a little deterring on its own account, says the auto club. The Yucca is a very vital factor in making the state attractive to eastern visitors and club officials declare that every resident of California will cooperate with the authorities in preserving the Yucca in its native state and protecting one of the beauties of the west. It's no joke, this "seeing America first" business, according to messages now being received at the Auto Club of Southern California from various National parks of America. Park superintendents are getting all "het up" about the number of auto owners who are going to pour into such big play grounds as the Yeflow stone. Glacier. Sequoia. Grant and Yosemite national reserves right after the thaw sets in. One park superintendent, Mr. Albright of Yellowstone, says that he expects 125,000 people there this year: This would be 25,000 more than visited Yellowstone last year. It is not unusual, says the Auto Club for hundreds of motorists in this part of the state to begin planning their summer trips as early as March and the club touring bureau is preparing a whole lot of first hand information on road conditions leading to the national parks throughout America. It has been found that in order to complete a successful trip of some distance the motorist should begin to lay his eases are just coming into bloom on the hills of the southern part of the state and will be more wonderful this year than ever before and just because they are going to be more wonderful the authorities are going to be more strict in arresting motorists who pick them.

The address of the engineer was very enlightening on the present and future water supply of Orange county. Declaring his belief that railroad men are fighting Orange county harbor in order to retain for San Pedro harbor lumber shipments, H. A. Lake, lumber merchant of Garden Grove, asserted that if railroad and wharf facilities were available at Orange county harbor a vast amount of lumber now coming to San Pedro would be diverted to the local port. Lake reported that it frequently takes fourteen days to get a carload of lumber from San Pedro to his yard at Garden Grove. It is the result of congestion and inadequate facilities for moving the material from the harbor, he said. He pointed out that lumber ships frequently are diverted to San Diego because of the congested condition. He believes that if Orange county harbor were properly equipped and with one or more of the railroads offering proper transportation facilities, cargoes diverted to San Diego would come into the local port. Lew H. Wallace, in reporting as chairman of the harbor committee, said that a prominent wholesale lumberman from Portland, Ore., had visited the harbor Tuesday and had made a thorough investigation as to the availability of the port for a wholesale yard. Wallace said, however, that he did not know that the visit would bear fruit, as the man who was there Tuesday was "the seventeenth wholesale lumberman who had visited the point in recent months, without real more than visited Yellowstone last year. It is not unusual, says the Auto Club for hundreds of motorists in this part of the state to begin planning their summer trips as early as March and the club touring bureau is preparing a whole lot of first hand information on road conditions leading to the national parks throughout America. It has been found that in order to complete a successful trip of some distance the motorist should begin to lay his plans at least a month or two before he starts out in order to avoid starting omissions in his commissary or bad breaks in his itinerary. One thing about the big flow of auto travel to the national parks this year will be the probable effect it will have on the improvements of roads within the park boundaries. A lot of auto owners returning from trips to the national play grounds ast year made the statement that the routes leading to the gates of the parks were in splendid shape but that the roads inside the big reserves were not all that could be wished for even by the most sanguine motorist. Few people realize, say most of the park superintendents, just what the beauties of America's great reserve are. The Auto Club has some splendid maps available for the use of people who are going to take their spring trips toward the national parks in California or elsewhere. ANNUAL REPORT OF HOUSING COMMISSION The ninth annual report of the Commission of Immigration and Housing, recently handed Governor Richardson, gives a comprehensive survey of its activities during the nine years of its existence. ANAHEIM GAZETTE existence, as well as the work accomplished by its various departments during the first ten months of 1922. Statistics for the period from January to November 1st, 1922, show that the Labor Camp Sanitation Department, in enforcing the labor camp sanitation act, inspected 1710 labor camps covering every industry throughout the state, in which twenty-nine different nationalities, aggregating a total population of 79,626, were found living in these camps. Since 1914 the department has inspected 12,570 camps, in which 465,838 persons were housed. Through its efforts labor camps have been made fit places for human habitation and its history for less than nine years has been a history of continuous progress and constructive accomplishment. Assisted by efficient and intelligent cooperation on the part of local authorities, the commission's housing department has gone far in the elimination of vicious housing conditions existing in practically all of our cities. There still remains much to be done in this direction but the results of past activities augur well for future ecorts and the commission looks to the not far distant day when California can point with pride to the housing conditions of her cities. To this end a bill, resulting from the deliberations of housing experts, meeting in two institutes called by the commission, has been introduced by Senator Inman at the present session of the legislature. This bill modifies the existing state housing laws to meet conditions which have arisen since their enactment in 1917. Another advance in housing legislation is contemplated by the commission in a bill, now before the legislature, which calls for state assistance to home builders with small incomes. The statistics of the Complaint Department, the real point of contact between the alien and the state, show that more than 38,000 immigrants have called upon it for assistance in settling existence, as well as the work accomplished by its various departments during the first ten months of 1922.

This bill modifies the existing state housing laws to meet conditions which have arisen since their enactment in 1917. Another advance in housing legislation is contemplated by the commission in a bill, now before the legislature, which calls for state assistance to home builders with small incomes. The statistics of the Complaint Department, the real point of contact between the alien and the state, show that more than 38,000 immigrants have called upon it for assistance in settling difficulties of every nature. Of this number 3000 such petitions were heard and adjusted from January 1st to November 1st, 1922. Persons representing over fifty different nationalities have been aided by the Complaint Department during the past year and a conservative estimate of the amount of money saved the state in the cost of jury trials arising out of these troubles, would exceed $25,000. This figure does not consider the cost saved the parties themselves, which probably is beyond calculation. The commission is rapidly assuring the immigrant that he will receive the "square deal" he is entitled to and which, prior to the creation of the commission, he was not getting. Until the commission came into being there was practically no state recognition given to the important and necessary activity of the teaching of English to the foreign born. Save in isolated instances there was no acknowledgement that the state had not speak English. Now the fact is universally recognized, the field surveyed and the State Board of Education has added to its activities a new and important one, the Department of Immigrant Education. Practical experiments progressive legislation and a tireless campaign to awaken public interest and enlist public sentiment—all this on the part of the commission—made the move possible. The 1920 census shows that approximately fifty per cent of the total population of the state is comprised of 805,000 foreign-born and 910,000 native-born of foreign parentage. The report shows clearly, the handicaps of the immigrant, the necessity for the removal of these handicaps and the manner in which the commission is slowly but surely removing them, all to the end that the immigrant, potential citizen of today, may be the wide-awake, understanding citizen of tomorrow. HERE'S A POSER Secretary Wallace and Secretary Hoover have asked Congress to make an appropriation with a view to conducting a thorough investigation into the possibilities of rubber production in the Philippines and South America. The developments which have made this inquiry necessary are of special interest. The United States consumes 75 per cent of all the raw rubber produced in the world. Practically the entire production is under the control of British and Dutch interests. Great Britain uses but five per cent of world's raw rubber supply. The British government has inaugurated a scheme of curtailment of production in her East Indian possessions, with a variation plan intended to greatly increase the raw rubber price. It is estimated that next year this British government policy will cost the American people over $150,000,000. In time of peace this control of the rubber industry with use of governmental power to hoist the price, taxes the American people for the benefit of foreign producers. In time of war the control of the rubber supply by our commercial rivals and possibly military foes would render the United States practically helpless in the production of many articles essential to war. We have in the Philippines an ample area capable of producing raw rubber sufficient for our uses within a few years. In Brazil and other South American countries are millions of acres where rubber could profitably be produced. In that direction lies our chance for independence in the production of an essential of peace time and war time production. The purpose of the inquiry proposed by Secretaries Hoover and Wallace is to escape the heavy burdens a foreign government proposes to lay upon our producers and our people generally. Our anti-protectionists are fond of referring to Great Britain as a free trade country. England's protective system is more rigid than our own. And in this scheme of rubber restriction and valorization is a plan of exploitation which our free traders would find it hard to forgive in any nation other than the one which has adopted it.

LESS PATERNALISM— MORE INDIVIDUALISM That the great majority of the American people want less bureaucratic supervision and more individual freedom of opportunity—less governmental paternalism and more individual self-reliance, is the opinion of Senator Frank L. Greene, of Vermont, who was a congressman from that state until he moved over to the senate on March 4. Moreover, Mr. Greene believes that it is not only sound statsmanship but wise politics for the Republican party to take a definite stand for a return to the principles of the fathers of the republic in this regard. Discussing this subject a few days ago, he said: "In my judgment, the Republican party can do more to rehabilitate itself, to sap nothing of that greater duty of rehabilitating the civil estate of the nation, by coming out squarely on a platform that unequivocally harks back to the constitution and the policy of centralization. Bureaucracy, paternalism. "It is true that here and there in some parts of the land there are elements of such radical disposition as would fight us on that issue. But that is nothing new. That issue always did make a fight in all ages, everywhere. The point is that we have been running along for several decades making system is more rigid than our own. And in this scheme of rubber restriction and valorization is a plan of exploitation which our free traders would find it hard to forgive in any nation other than the one which has adopted it." TRUST MR. HARDING There is general compensation of President Harding on his decision not to convene Congress in special session. A rest from legislation and from its attendin gvocal activities—particularly the latter—is needed Republican and Depocratic papers alike admit this fact. The country will be better og under the sole direct leading of the chief magistrate. Which is a tribute well earned and now bipartisan, to Mr. Harding. There have been times when we pre-ferred trusting the republic to the legislature rather than the executive branch of Government. THE LAND OF THE FREE Los Angeles proudly confesses to the name of "The Scab City." It was bestowed upon the town by the unions after the bitter struggle of 1909 and was widely broadcasted by them as a terp of reproach. Some of the best advertisement could have been sug-gested. Some of the best mechanics and other workmen in the country hurried to Los Angeles where they knew they would be free of union tyranny, and where their own initia-tive and ability would determine their terms of employment. Hundreds of manufacturers have also moved to the city in order to escape the dictation of the union bosses and make their own contracts with their workers.
