Pershing, chief of staff of the army, on a tour of inspection of the military training camps now being held throughout the United States, will arrive in Los Angeles at 7:30 p.m., July 30, and leave at 1:30 a.m. that same night. He has received invitations from the following organizations, who would like to entertain him while in Los Angeles: The American Legion posts of Los Angeles county, the Los Angeles sector, association of the army of the United States, the chamber of commerce, the 160th infantry, California national guard, and groups of officers of the organized reserve corps. The few hours available for his stop in Los Angeles not being sufficient to permit him to accept all the invitations extended, General Pershing asked General Charles G. Morton, U. S. A., the corps area commander at San Francisco, to take steps to co-ordinate, if possible, the proposals of all concerned so as to have one occasion only. In so doing General Pershing expressed the hope that matters might be arranged so that he would have an close watch is kept at points near Chicago, Eureka, Marysville and other points scattered through the north central section of the state, search is being conducted on the joint theory that Gregory may have headed south after the dispatch of telegrams announcing his "death." While the authorities are contemplating no criminal charge against the young man, they are still unsatisfied with the apparent explanation of the mystery as presented by his shattered romance. Last seen, Gregory was in a speedy automobile headed north. Miss Stewart returned to her duties as waitress in a Fullerton cafe, convinced that her flame had deserted her. She had renounced all matrimonial intentions so far as she is concerned if he returns, although she indicates that she still refuses to assume an unforgiving attitude. Investigation of Gregory's recent actions is still under way in an endeavor to master a clue on which to base a more definite search. GOOD PRICE FOR BEANS Although production of beans will be materially reduced, especially in Orange county, indications are that sales and prices will be highly satisfactory, according to S. N. Greding, traveling representative of the California Lima Bean Growers' association, who was a visitor in the county. "I find," said Greding, who travels throughout the United States in the interest of the association, "that the eastern buyers, from long experience, have come to have the utmost faith in the California association. In addition, I have been signing up a number of new members for the association. Indications are that next year will see an even greater number in the parent organization." Business conditions in the east, while undergoing some changes, have tainted a corporation has done much wrong what others have become a more similar to the local Oklahoma and through the delirious rations of promo control could be a lack of state rule.

The statement The few hours available for his stop in Los Angeles not being sufficient to permit him to accept all the invitations extended, General Pershing asked General Charles G. Morton, U.S.A., the corps area commander at San Francisco, to take steps to co-ordinate, if possible, the proposals of all concerned so as to have one occasion only. In so doing General Pershing expressed the hope that matters might be arranged so that he would have an opportunity to meet with members of all the above organizations, in accordance with invitations extended. Accordingly, General Morton appointed a committee of three, consisting of Philip F. Dodson, chairman of the county inter-post council of the American Legion; Lieut. Colonel J.W. Sutphen, executive officer, 182nd infantry brigade, organized reserves; and Lieut. Colonel H.R. Richmond, cavalry, liaison officer, organized reserves in southern California to arrange a combined entertainment under the auspices of all the organizations that had extended an invitation to General Pershing. The committee has decided to hold the reception and banquet for General Pershing at the Ambassador hotel in Los Angeles, the guests to arrive at 7:30 p.m. and to be seated at 8. HARDING REAFFIRMS STAND AGAINST "LEAGUE" COURT If anybody really believed that the president would "play politics" in an effort to gain adherents for his world court participation plan, the St. Louis address must have proved the fallacy of the belief. The English language contains no stronger words than those in which the president declared his opposition to American membership in the league of nations. His assertion of the popular disapprovals or refusal, registered on several occasions, to sanction such membership was equally emphatic, though merely the statement of facts of universal knowledge. While some of the details of the president's plan have not previously been made public, nevertheless they only amplify the broad premise that the United States cannot remain wholly aloof from the rest of the world; that participation in the world court does not assume any obligations, direct or indirect, with respect to the league; that no ties whatever should bind America to the league, and that the world court stands or falls on its merits as an individual institution; "I find," said Greding, who travels throughout the United States in the interest of the association, "that the eastern buyers, from long experience, have come to have the utmost faith in the California association. In addition, I have been signing up a number of new members for the association. Indications are that next year will see an even greater number in the parent organization." Business conditions in the east, while undergoing some changes, have improved in the past few months and call trade will be quite satisfactory. Greding declared. While here, Greding visited several of the large bean branches in Orange county, including the Irvine and Jerome properties. TIME TO FUMIGATE The growers of this county spent last year $55,259.22 for fumigation. This is a very heavy tax on the industry, and while it is necessary to produce quantity and quality of fruit and unless it is done properly and at the right time the results are anything but satisfactory. Therefore, the grower who has in his orchard an infestation of black and purple scale should attempt to get his fumigation done in the next two months. The black scale will be in an ideal condition for fumigation in most of the districts of the county in the course of a few days and in most of the orchards purple scale is also in a vulnerable condition. If the available fumigation outfits in the county can be used in the district where they have heavy infestations of black and purple scale, it will then be possible to devote their attention to red scale in the late fall and winter months. Where the grower has all three of these pests to control the only thing to do is to time the fumigation for the one that is causing the most injury to his orchard. We expect to have a fumigation inspector in the field to keep careful watch of all operations and see that the best known methods are used in this county. The entire force will be very glad to be of service, both in inspecting the groves and advising the proper time for fumigation, and we will also be glad to examine the groves and report on results after treatment.

ARRESTED ON LIQUOR CHARGE While their husbands were in jail, "The statements quotes figures about roads of the country secured the return reduced to 5.76 per state commissions that, on an errant would not more than a billion." That the railroad been better since for the same period preceding years is the rate of return interstate commissions asserts that, on an errant would not more than a billion." President Gray with these words gestions are always. HEAVY FINES Mrs. Kate Measand,ilor to 1911 an asserted illegal goods," was free 400, imposed in 1912 on four coats of whiskey.

Whether Europe will accept the president's plan is of subordinate importance compared with the will of the American people. It is for them to say whether they indorse or disapprove it. The president leaves it with them, declaring, with the fine regard for the proprieties which distinguishes all his utterances, that no "pressure" of any character will be exerted by him to force, control or color the decision which rests finally with the people. AVIATOR DISAPPEARS Communications with various cities throughout the district towards which Jack Gregory, missing aviator and flame of Miss Sarah Stewart, Fullerton girl, was then thought to be headed, failed to disclose any trace of his whereabouts Sunday, while government officials continued the hunt for the mail flyer who is still "missing." The complete disappearance of the airplane which Gregory used in his stunt flying is still baffling officials and they indicate that the hunt will not be dropped until some trace of the plane or the flyer is uncovered.

ARRESTED ON LIQUOR CHARGE While their husbands were in jail to be charged with possession of liquor following an alleged "all-night automobile ride," Mrs. Wm. H. Swall, wife of "K. O." Swall, erstwhile pugilist, and Mrs. Arthur Alumbaugh, wife of Engineer Alumbaugh, a "neighbor," were being watched by authorities following Mrs. Swall's threat to use her busband's boxing gloves on her neighbor. When Mrs. Alumbaugh complained that Swall was giving her husband whiskey deputy sheriffs watched the Swall home all night Friday night. Early next morning Swall and Alumbaugh showed up and in their automobile was found a bottle of the forbidden drink. Deputy Sheriffs G. E. McClellan and J. L. Elliott brought the men to jail and Mrs. Swall followed, threatening them for "arresting a man on my ranch without a warrant." HAVE YOU INVESTED IN ANY OIL STOCK?

C. Teague, president of the California Walnut Growers' association, and other experts scheduled to deliver addresses and with a special program on marketing to be featured, many Orange county growers are making tentative plans for the walnut growers' field day, to be held at Ventura, August 18. "On this occasion," said Farm Advisor H. E. Wahlberg, "prominent growers from all sections of California will be in attendance and some worth-while addresses will be delivered by President Teague, Eugene S. Kellogg, A. W. Christie, C. E. Kelsey, R. E. Smith., H. C. Sharp, T. C. Olmstead, J. D. Culbertson and others. "Matters to be discussed include dehydration, distribution, co-operative marketing, dusting problems, packing house management, treatment of old orchards, warehouse and field economics and kindred subjects. The list of speakers will include Carlyle Thorpe, general manager of the California Walnut Growers' association, who will discuss 'Quality and Distribution of Walnuts.'" "At noon a picnic dinner will be served, and the afternoon session will be devoted to a field trip, including visits to several groves in Ventura county, where various phases of pest control and improved harvesting methods will be featured." "Originally, this meeting was scheduled for August 11, but it was postponed until August 18, in order to meet the time schedule of some of the speakers invited to attend." PLANS FOR THE FAIR With representatives of fifteen Or President Gray cites the transportation act under which the railroads are now operating, and accentuates the point that the arrangement under which the railroads were paid during the federal control came to an end on the last day of August, 1920. The statement of President Gray quotes figures showing that the railroads of the country have never yet secured the return of $6 per cent (later reduced to 5.75 per cent) fixed by the interstate commerce commission, and asserts that, on such a basis, the government would now owe the railroads more than a billion dollars. That the railroad earnings have been better since January, 1923, than for the same period in any of the three preceding years we are assured, "but the rate of return is still lower than the interstate commerce commission has prescribed as reasonable." The statement concludes with a reminder that the "price of transportation can only be reduced as the cost of transportation is reduced," referring to the advance in a railroad's cost of living as in the case of the individual. President Gray caps his statement with these words: "Constructive suggestions are always welcome." HEAVY FINES REMITTED Mrs. Kate Measor, resident of Delhi, and, prior to 1917, in the limelight as an asserted illegal dispenser of "wet goods," was free of fines totaling $2,400, imposed in 1917, following conviction on four counts charging illegal sale of whiskey. Under instruction of the board of supervisors, District Attorney A. P. Nelson entered notice with the county clerk that the judgment had been satisfied. The supervisors suspended the fines. At the time of conviction, Mrs. Measor was sentenced to six months in the county jail and fine of $600 on each count. She served the jail sentences but did not pay the fines. Attorney H. C. Head, representing Mrs. Measor, Tuesday appeared before the supervisors and suggested that the board declare the judgment satisfied,inasmuch as the convicted woman had served a total of more than two years in jail. Nelson pointed out that the fine constituted a civil claim and that the au- PLANS FOR THE FAIR With representallives of fifteen Orange county farm centers actively interested in plans for exhibits at the seventh annual Orange county fair to be held in September, John Ragan, chairman of the farm center executive committee, announced that tentative plans for specialized and diversified space allotments in the agricultural tent will be submitted to the various centers and the board of directors of the fair in the near future. "We find," said Ragan, following a meeting of the farm center executive committee, "that interest is keen throughout the county in the many wonderful products to be exhibited by the fifteen centers this fall. Already many of the centers, particularly Cypress, are planning far in advance for their displays, and indications are that scores of exhibits will be placed in cold storage at the Taylor cannery in the near future. "It is hoped that we will be able to fill the spaces in the huge agricultural tent with some of the finest products ever grown in the southland. The only way we can do this is to win and hold the active co-operation of every rancher in the county. This is Orange county's fair and we want the people of Orange county to pitch in and assist us in proving that we can 'beat the world' when it comes to a question of showing farm products. We are working out special plans for the exhibits in the agricultural tent and we will be glad to take care of every grower in the county."

She served the jail sentences but did not pay the fines. Attorney H. C. Head, representing Mrs. Measor, Tuesday appeared before the supervisors and suggested that the board declare the judgment satisfied. Inasmuch as the convicted woman had served a total of more than two years in jail. Nelson pointed out that the fine constituted a civil claim and that the superviseurs had authority either to suspend or compromise. He said the board took the position that the end of justice had been met by the jail term. It was understood the decision of the board to suspend the fines was influenced by Mrs. Measor's asserted non-attempt to re-engage in illicit liquor traffic. BALDWIN SAW FOR HIMSELF The experiences of Premier Baldwin while he was in Washington as the head of the British debt funding commission are likely to prove a valuable asset to the United States in its dealings with Great Britain. Mr. Baldwin makes frequent mention of the very unfriendly spirit in which he was received at Washington, and of the readiness of the Americans to grant every proper concession to the British in fixing the terms of debt repayment. The attitude of the American government in the debt matter was no different in principle from its treatment of all discussions with other powers. All we ask or ever will lask is simple justice and sincere compliance with treaties and other international agreements. Every foreign diplomat who entertains a respect for such standards cannot fail to have a friendly feeling for the United States. BUYER, PAYS $25 FINE Charged with falsifying the weight of hay sold to Thomas F. Galley, Villa Park rancher, Jim Dominguez was $25 poorer, that amount being levied as a fine when Dominguez pleaded guilty before Justice J. B. Cox. George McPhee, county sealer of weights and measures, filed the charge against Dominguez, after Galley complained that when he purchased what was supposed to be two tons of hay from Dominguez, he found it approximately half a ton short. Galley was said to have first complained to Dominguez, who was said to have refused to adjust the matter. Then McPhee was notified. SPEAKING OF POLITICS Speaking of politics, a good many local Rpebculasn N.. cal Republicans are wondering who will be the candidates for senator to succeed Walter Eden. Riverside county is expected to answer the question. Over that way, at least four names have been mentioned. These four are S. C. Evans, former state senator and mayor of Riverside, Assemblyman Chester Kline, of San Jacinto, Attorney C. L. McFarland, of Riverside, and Ross Hammond, secretary of the Riverside chamber of commerce.
