GREAT DEMAND FOR CALIFORNIA PRODUCTS Japan's Catastrophy Bringing Dollars to this State. Hugh quantities of California products have been purchased for the rebuilding of the devastated area of Japan and the relief of the Japanese people. Other large purchases, chiefly of building materials and food, are pending. Approximately 800,000,000 feet of assorted lumber have been ordered by cable. Northern Pacific mills will supply some 500,000,000 feet, while the Robert Dollar interests will ship big cargoes of Douglas fir and cedar from their own mills. Practically the entire California rice crop has been purchased by Japan, about 11,200,000 pounds of rice. The California Rice Growers' Association announced that the price would not be increased despite the unprecedented demand. This was in the face of overtures from many brokers, who wished to take advantage of the possibilities for profit. Several cargo steamers have cleared for Japan. Supplies already shipped include rice, foodstuffs, medical stores, cereals, canned goods, clothing refrigerated meats, fruits, vegetables, flour, meal and building materials. Purchases from Japan are expected to be very large for the next few months. During those months, however, the sudden flood of buying orders may well have an important effect on domestic business on the Pacific Coast. Buyers have been cautious of late, but it looks as though a real buying wave might develop to substantial proportions. It also seems not unlikely that the sudden development of trans-Pacific trade may bring about the upbuilding of a permanent improvement in com- are to be scrapped, determined to dispose of them so that the steel and other materials in them should be turned back to useful purposes, to be utilized in trade industry. So it was decided to offer for sale, by sealed bids, the vessels to be scrapped by the purchasers, so that all the steel, copper, brass and other metals they contain, their engines, machinery, and equipment will be turned to the uses of peace. "These ships will be sold in four great sales. The first, on October 25, will be of vessels under construction at navy yards, which will be sold in their present state of completion. These vessels, had they been completed, would have been the largest and must powerful war vessels in existence. "The battleships like the Indiana and the South Dakota at the New York navy yard, the North Carolina at Norfolk and the Montana at Mare Island, Cal., were designed to be 684 feet long and of 43,200 tons displacement. The battle cruisers Constitution and United States at the Philadelphia navy yard, which are also to be disposed of in this sale, are even larger, ~874 feet long, and would have been the swiftest of all capital ships. "When we recall that the Pennsylvania, which was the flagship of the fleet in the World war, is 31,400 tons, and the Connecticut, which was the flagship of "Fighting Bob" Evans in the voyage of the eet around the world in 1907, is only 16,000 tons, you can gain some idea of the size of these huge vessels. The other ships under construction at private yards, the Iowa at Newport News, the Massachusetts at Fore River, Mass., and the battle cruisers Ranger and Constellation at Newport News, are to be sold on November 8. "Flue of the older battleships which are to be scrapped will be sold on and found it to be far there was reason to do dell had been paid the as he had, just before pealed to the district a to aid him in collecting which he said was due employer.

It is fine for a young good table manners, but it makes about every It also seems not unlikely that the sudden development of trans-Pacific trade may bring about the upbuilding of a permanent improvement in commerce between Japan and America. It is sixty-six years since the ports of Japan were opened to world trade. For more than fifty years of that period Great Britian was the dominating factor. It was only in the last quarter-century that there was a trend of growth from England to the United States. Business has fallen off considerably in recent years. Imports from Japan at San Francisco had a total value of only $28,452,122 for the fiscal year ending in 1923. During the previous year the total was $32,974,453. Exports to Japan from this port in 1923 were $9,605,055, compared with $10,576,553 in the previous year. This condition did not apply to oriental trade in general. Imports from China were valued at $14,632,762 for the year 1923, a gain of $8,658,508, compared with 1922. Exports for 1923 amounted to $11,187,400, an increase of $2,191,778. SCRAPPING OUR SHIPS. Interesting demonstrations of the method of ship breaking have just been made at the New York navy yard in connection with the scrapping of vessels of war under the naval treaty. These were made on the great hulls of the battleships Indiana and South Dakota, on which work was stopped when the ships were about 33 per cent completed, says a writer in the Washington Star. Capt. Edmond W. Bonnaffon, one of the best known officers of the United States navy supply corps, in his capacity as officer in charge of the sale of navy vessels, has charge of this, the largest sale of war vessels ever conducted in the country. Capt. Bonnaffon, in discussing the sale and in telling how these ships will finally be disposed of, said: "The five great naval powers, the United States, Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan, agreed, in conference at Washington, which was one of the most notable armaments of Brazil." The flagship of "Fighting Bob" Evans in the voyage of the ect around the world in 1907, is only 16,000 tons, you can gain some idea of the size of these huge vessels. The other ships under construction at private yards, the Iowa at Newport News, the Massachusetts at Fore River, Mass., and the battle cruisers Ranger and Constellation at Newport News, are to be sold on November 8. "Fibe of the older battleships which are to be scrapped will be sold on November 1—the New Hampshire, Louisiana, Georgia, Rhode Island and Connecticut; and the six others to be disposed of will be sold on November 30—the Michigan, Minnesota, Kansas, Vermont, Nebraska and Delaware. Three of these are of 14,948 tons, the remainder of 16,000 tons, except the Delaware, which is 20,000 tons. "Under the terms of the treaty these cannot be sold or given to any other nation; they cannot be used as merchant ships, so that they must be scrapped. And that means the biggest scrapping job of the kind ever done in this country. Under the terms of sale they must be scrapped by the purchasers within 18 months after the date of ratification of the treaty which went into effect August 17. "While this will be the biggest scrapping job on war vessels ever undertaken in this country, with modern methods and apparatus, it can easily be accomplished with the oxy-acetylene torch and other gas and electric apparatus. Ship plates, beams and even the heaviest armor, can be cut into convenient sizes so that they can be utilized or remelted. "Vessels like this will, of course, be scrapped on the ways as they are. In the case of the battleships afloat, completed vessels, the processes of cutting and scrapping are much the same, though the procedure is varied to suit conditions. First, of course, the machinery and equipment that can be hoisted is removed. Then begins work on the hull. This is the method pursued by one successful ship-breaker. First he removes the side armor plate from the inside shell or tank into sections weighing from 25 to 40 tons. These are swung up right positions and cut with oxycetylene torches into pieces two feet by six, of convenient size for feeding into the charging boxes of open-hearth furnaces where they are melted, later to be reformed. After the armor plate is removed, the gun-turret machinery, ammunition hoists and refrigerator systems are broken up by workers."

STATEMENTS Of the Ownership, Mculication, etc., required congress of August 22 Anaheim Gasette public Anaheim California 1. 1923 State of California Co SS.: The five great naval powers, the United States, Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan, agreed, in conference at Washington, which was one of the most notable assemblages of President Harding's administration, that the size of capital ships and the tonnage of navies should be limited, ending the race in warship building. That conference provided that the United States and Great Britain should maintain navies of practically the same size and that the ratio of size of the three leading navies, those of the United States, Great Britain and Japan, should be 5—5—3, the latter figure being Japan's. It was agreed that the vessels under construction exceeding 35,000 tons, were not to be completed and that enough of the older battleships should be eliminated to reduce the total tonnage to the amount each country would be allowed to maintain. That treaty, limiting naval armament, was finally ratified August 17, and the United States navy immediately took steps to carry out its provisions so far as this country is concerned. Two of the older battleships which were to be eliminated were turned over to the army for bombing purposes, and you read in the newspapers a week or ten days ago how they were bombed and sunk by aeroplanes off the North Carolina coast. Two others have been retained by the navy for target practice and experimental purposes. But the Navy Department, in disposing of the remaining vessels which pursued by one successful ship-breaker. First he removes the side armor plate from the inside shell or tank into sections weighing from 25 to 40 tons. These are swung to upright positions and cut with oxycetylene torches into pieces two feet by six, of convenient size for feeding into the charging boxes of open-hearth furnaces where they are melted, later to be reforged. After the armor plate is removed, the gun-turret machinery, ammunition hoists and refrigerator systems are broken up by workmen and reduced to small scrap by piledrivers or other breaking apparatus. Then the plates, beams and other parts of the vessel are cut up and removed. Every part of it is utilized, all which cannot be sold in existing shape being converted into scrap to be remelted for commercial uses." JERNIGAN REPUDIATES THEORY OF MURDER Thinks Aged Man at Talbert Was Victim of Accident Following a thorough investigation of rumors that the death of W. Randell, 82, who perished in a fire that destroyed two buildings in Talbert last Sunday, may have been the result of foul play, Sheriff Sam Jernigan scouted the theory of murder accompanied by incendiarism, although admitting that he was still investigating "remote possibilities" of the latter crime. With respect to rumors that the aged victim of the fire had been paid a sum of money just before his death and that his empty wallet had been found near Greenville at the scene of an automobile wreck, in connection with which two Mexicans lodged in jail. Jernigan stated that he had run down the rumor regarding the wallet.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE and found it to be false; also that there was reason to doubt that Randell had been paid the sum of money, as he had, just before his death, appealed to the district attorney's office to aid him in collecting the money, which he said was due him from an employer. The fact that Randell's watch and ring were found in the ruins of the building discounted the theory, Jernigan said, that Randell had been robbed and the building burned to conceal the crime. After his investigation Jernigan became convinced, he said, that the rumors came from unreliable sources. At the coroner's inquest, he said, there was no testimony to indicate that the Mexicans held after the automobile wreck had been at the scene of the fire, though it was known that they had left Talbert shortly before the fire, racing the two cars they occupied. However, Jernigan said, he was still probing the theory that enemies of S. E. Talbert, owner of the building in which the fire originated, might have started the blaze, without intention of cremating the aged inmate. Manuel Felix, one of the Mexicans held, is awaiting preliminary hearing on a charge of driving an automobile while under the influence of intoxicating liquor. Pablo Benaga, one of his companions, will probably be similarly charged, it was said. Elliodoro Ybarra, a third member of the party, has been released, and a fourth Mexican is said to be in a hospital.
