SAM KRAEMER ON PROPHECY OF HIS FATHER
THIS SECTION JUSTIFIED BY HIS SECTION JUSTIFIED BY EVENTS.
Saw a Great Future for Southern California When He Came Here 56 Years Ago—Samuel Kraemer Inherited His Father's Optimism, and Belleves Anahelm has Great Future—Will Begin on American Savings Bank Building in a Couple of Weeks, and Contemplates Others.
If Daniel Kraemer, pioneer settler of this region, who passed on many years ago, is privileged to look down upon the earth, he can realize that his prophecy made wore than half a century ago, has been more than fulfilled. At the close of the civil war Mr. Kraemer came here from his home in Illinois seeking a location for himself and family. Although the country was wild and undeveloped he was forsighted enough to see its possibilities.
Mr. Kraemer purchased the Boston Bakery corner, had Eugene Durfee draw up plans for the tallest building in Orange county, let the contracts when the plans were ready, and within a couple of weeks will begin clearing the ground of the old building.
Mr Kraemer dropped into this office a few daps ago and discussed the past, the present and the future. "Many of my old friends," he said, "lost big money by disposing of their property and interests here within the past few years. The man who had faith enough in the future of the city and surrounding country to hold on to his possessions is the man who wins."
In all probability when the American Savings Bank building is completed Mr. Kraemer will begin on another structure. He holds valuable lots in various sections of town and it is his intention to eventually cover them with substantial structures.
Although he does not live in town he is now the heaviest taxpayer in the city. John' Cook, F. A. Youngbluth and Theodore Roberts have been toping the list alternately, but Mr. Kraemer undoubtedly increased his lead by the erection of more buildings.
WELCH ON THE HARBOR
"The Pacific ocean will be the next greatest theatre of the world's activities both naval and commercial."
So declared Harry Welch, secretary of the Orange County Harbor Chamber of Commerce when questioned
If Daniel Kraemer, pioneer settler of this region, who passed on many years ago, is privileged to look down upon the earth, he can realize that his prophecy made wore than half a century ago, has been more than fulfilled. At the close of the civil war Mr. Kraemer came here from his home in Illinois seeking a location for himself and family. Although the country was wild and undeveloped he was forsighted enough to see its possibilities. He judged it merely from an agricultural standpoint, having no knowledge of the untold millions of dollars in oil beneath the surface, but he was so impressed with its climate and its soil, and the certainty of large returns for his labor in cultivating it that he purchased a large tract of land at Placentia. He wrote an optimistic letter to his wife in which he stated that the climate here was superior to that of Italy, and that this would make an ideal home. He returned to Illinois, disposed of his possessions there, and brought his family here, following the well known trail across the Isthmus of Panama.
Mr. Kraemer died many years before his dream was fully realized, but his descendants have carried on and the ground which he purchased for a small sum in 1867 is now worth millions. Samuel Kraemer, his son, who still owns a portion of the tract as well as a section of the Yorga grant, is rated as one of California's foremost millionaires, all his wealth being taken from or still lying in the ground that half a century ago was priced at a few dollars per acre.
Mr. Kraemer, like his father, was an optimist, and believed in the future of this section. He held possession of his land and developed it. A portion of it was set to oranges, and before oil was discovered he was growing the finest oranges in tue world on the wild mustard patch his father purchased for a mere song in the early days. Then came the oil boom and Mr. Kraemer leased to various companies. Some of the greatest wells in California were brought in on his property and his royalties have placed him in the multi-millionaire class.
Mr. Kraemer always had an abiding faith in the future of Anaheim. Even before the oil development added millions to his wealth he was a large investor here. He has long been a director of the First National and the American Savings Banks and some years ago he erected substantial business buildings on Center and Los Angeles streets. But since his oil royalty will be realigned to look down upon the earth, he can realize that his prophecy made wore than half a century ago, has been more than fulfilled.

in California were brought in on his property and his royalties have placed him in the multi-millionaire class.
Mr. Kraemer always had an abiding faith in the future of Anaheim. Even before the oil development added millions to his wealth he was a large investor here. He has long been a director of the First National and the American Savings Banks and some years ago he erected substantial businesses buildings on Center and Los Angeles streets. But since his oil royalties and leases have overwhelmed him with loose cash he has greatly increased his activities here, and it is his purpose to continue building. The S. Kraemer building, costing $160,000 the Arnold Kraemer building, cost over $100,000 and the Angelina Kraemer block, built at a cost of $255,000, have all been erected within the past two years. Contracts for the American Savings Bank building at the corner of Center and North Claudina have been let, and work will begin the first of December. This is to be a six-story structure and will cost more than $300,000.
A year ago the directors of the First National and American Savings Banks were considering a serious dilemma. Business of he two institutions had grown to such proportions that there was not room in the First National building for both and no suitable location could be found for the savings bank. While they were discussing the problem Mr. Kraemer who is one of the directors said:
"I will settle this question for you. I'll put up a building for the Savings bank." "What would this town do without Sam Kraemer," remarked President Siemann "Get busy and we'll move in as soon as you are ready for us"
The result of this meeting was that

BOULDER CANYON DAM UNDER DISCUSSION
INTERESTING SESSION OF ASSOCIATION AT SANTA ANA LAST SATURDAY
William Mulholland, Noted Engineer, Tells of the Benefits to be Derived by this Section When Dam is Built—Mayor Cryer Denies Charge that Los Angeles Wants to Play Unfair—Would Cheapen Water for all Southern California.

Cryer, Mayor of Los Angeles, and resolutions by the department of public service of that city that Los Angeles would not participate in an activity in connection with the Boulder Dam project that would damage Nevada or Arizona, or that would limit equal opportunity for every community to participate in ben-
"Speaking for Los Angeles, I feel justified in reaffirming that the city will not knowingly be a party to any net that would be forced to the northern states of the United States or basin. I believe practical to write intuitively canyon dam such will fully involve the interests of the upper basin. Furthermore, I am of the opinion that the city of Los Angeles will not knowingly be a partp to the furtherance of any legislation that will result in disadvantage to Nevada or Arizona, or that will in any way limit equal opportunity for every community and district of Southern California to participate in the benefits that will accrue from the development of the resources of the Colorado river."

Scores of Wonderful Floats in Line Depicting Periods of Historical Interest in the Life of the Nation—Huntington Beach School Children Draw First Prize, While Anaheim Post Picks the Fourth Plum—No Accidents to Mar the Day.
Forty thousand patriotic residents of Orange County gathered at Orange Monday to witness the pageant staged by the American Legion posts in celebration of the fifth anniversary of the signing of the armistice which ended the great war.

carious communities and organizations of Southern California, at the meeting of the Boulder Dam association held at St. Ann's Inn, applauded declarations of George C. Cryer, Mayor of Los Angeles, and resolutions by the department of public service of that city that Los Angeles would not participate in an activity in connection with the Boulder Dam project that would damage Nevada or Arizona, or that would limit equal opportunity for every community to participate in benefits that will accrue from development of the resources of the Colorado river.
A signed statement by the Los Angeles mayor and the resolutions by the department of public service were read by Mayor S. C. Evans, of Riverside, at the conclusion of an address by William Mulholland, engineer, Los Angeles. Mulholland outlined plans for Southern California communities to divert water from the Colorado river to Southern California for domestic consumption.
Declaring his belief that water from the Colorado river could be delivered in Los Angeles at an approximate cost of 6 cents a hundred feet, Mulholland said that domestic water there is now retailing at 7 cents a hundred feet.
Pointing out that 1000 second feet would produce a supply of 640,000 million gallons a day, the equivalent of the water supply of New York, Mulholland stated that it is proposed to ask the government for an appropriation of 1000 second feet. He further pointed out that this is approximately but one-sixteenth of the river flow under normal conditions.
Bringing out the point that the lowest water project is not exclusively a Los Angeles development, he said plans contemplated a supply for all Southern California. He in particular mentioned Santa Ana, Anaheim Long Beach and Pasadena.
Stating that a lift of 1200 feet probably would be required to boost the water to be brought into the Southland by conduits, the engineer said that power would be necessary and that permission would be asked for permission to utilize power developed on the river.
Maintaining that the people generally are competent to develop and manage the operation of electric power available to development on the Colorado, Mulholland said:
"It is time the people of the United States were holding some thing for themselves instead of permitting holding companies to hold for them the great natural resources. If more power can be used they can be used."
CONVENTION COMING HERE
Anaheim union high school this spring will be the host to the semi-annual convention of the Southern California Press association, the first school outside of Los Angeles to have the honor.
This was the word brought back today by the local high school delegation which attended the conference at Huntington Park Friday. Bert F. Steelhead, journalism teacher; Constance Williams, editor of the Anoranco; William Cottrell and Lloyd Ross represented the local school.
Every other Orange county high school, with the exception of Garden Grove, was represented. The Junior Register was largely responsible for the strong Orange county delegation and had its editor and one of the Register staff men present.
Miss Florence Boosey, editor of the Tustin high school paper, was placed in nomination for secretary and received the second largest number of votes. She got greater support than three candidates from Los Angeles schools. The place went Sant Paula.
It was literally Orange county dap at the conference. This county had the second largest delegation present, being beaten only by the Los Angeles county schools. Some of the latter schools sent as six voting delegates.
The editor of the Junior Register proposed, and the idea was accepted by the conference, that a committee be named to draw up a code of ethics for the association. Anaheim high school is leading a movement for the re-writing of the constitution, which was found to be faulty in several instances.
The main address of the day was delivered by T. E. Stevenson, managing editor of the Santa Ana Register. He outlined the qualifications of a reporter. Other newspaper men who spoke were Harry A. Williams of the Los Angeles Times and Reuben Borough of the Los Angeles Record.
A sumptuous luncheon, at which chicken was the piece de resistance, was served bp Huntington Park high school in the school cafeteria at noon.
In the afternoon there was a lively discussion of the subject of high school annual advertising. The consensus of opinion seeming to be that the advertising matter should be accepted and the burden on the students be made as light as possible.
An historical pageant, representing periods in American history beginning with the earliest arrival of the white man and leading up to the present day, was one of the interesting features of the great parade. The following floats were entered by Anaheim:
"Liberty Bell's First Note," Legion Auxiliary.
"The Spirit of '76," Anaheim American Legion.
"Constitutional Convention," Anaheim Union High School.
"Westward Ho! Pikes Peak or Bust," Rotary Club.
"Little Red School," Knights of Pythias.
"Maud Muller," Anaheim Ebell Club.
"Negro and Cotton," Lions Club.
"Peace at Appomattox," Kiwands Club.
"Panama Canal Zone," Chamber of Commerce.
"The Suffragette," Business Women's Club.
There was not a hitch in the program that had been prepared under the direction of the city and Legion authorities. The streets were well patrolled and adequate facilities were provided for the handling of the huge crowd. This had been taken care of to last detail, so that even the largest crowd in the history of the city was handled without a single accident or incident to mar the perfect arrangements.
This was aided by the help extended to Orange by her sister cities throughout the county. Police were loaned from Anaheim, Fullerton, Santa Ana, and from the county department. This was augmented by a large force of ex-service men.
The list of awards for the best floats in the historical pageant were as follows:
First prize to Huntington Beach granmer schools for their float depicting the "Signing of the Mayflower Pact."
Second prize war poster, "Come On!" designed by Harvey Gerber of Orange County gathered at Orange Monday to witness the pageant staged by the American Legion posts in celebration of the fifth anniversary of the signing of the armistice which ended the great war. This was fourth annual observance of the day under the auspices of the posts of the county, and was far far most beautiful and spectacular.

Maintaining that the people generally are competent to develop and manage the operation of electric power available to development on the Colorado, Mulholland said:
"It is time the people of the United States were holding some thing for themselves instead of permitting holding companies to hold for them the great natural resources. If more power will be developed than can be used by the people in the communities that would be served, then we can let some holding company in on the surplus."
Designating the river as "the walking ghost of the Imperial Valley," the engineer said that he hoped the government, if it is going to build the dam would be induced to get the work under way at once.
Asserting his belief that the government would ask the communities to pay a portion of the cost of the construction of the dam, the engineer said he believed that the communities interested would not oppose bearing a portion of the costs.
Answering a question as to what will become of the silt in the Colorado river, if the Boulder dam is constructed, the Los Angeles engineer said that it would take 400 to 500 years for the silt to fill the river to the top of the dam—"and why worry," he concluded "Let futurizing."
In view of the fact that the position of Los Angeles is important, with reference to the development from the Colorado river of a domestic supply, the signed statement of Cryer and the resolution by the public service department are regarded as of deep significance.
In his statement, Mayor Cryer said:
A letter was mailed to the Wall Street Journal at 7 P.M. on September 27 at Casper, Wyo. Twenty-four hours later it was in the waters of the Big Muddy river at Lockett, some 14 miles from Casper. The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy train carrying the mail was wrecked as a result of a collapse of the bridge supports at Lockett, which had been weakened by floods.
Ten days later the Wall Street Journal received its letter. The stamp had been washed off, some of he Big Muddy river had left its imprint on the envelope and it carried a United States mall inscription which read: "Salvaged from Coal Creek wreck near Casper, Wyoming." A brief line, indeed, but with a story of horror, heroism and public service behind it which makes the United States mall a notable department in our government.
An unreasonable profit is the profit some other man makes.

EXPERT TO LECTURE
ON WALNUT CULTURE
Dr. Reed of the Department of Agriculture, to Give Address.
Through the eyes of the world's foremost authority on nut culture,
Southern Californians will be able to view their great walnut industry Satday, November 17th, at 2:30 P. M., when Dr. C. A. Reed, nut specialist of the U. S. Department of Agriculture delivers an illustrated address in the auditorium of the Union High School at Puente.
Dr. Reed just recently returned from China where he spent four profitable months in making a first-hand survey of the Oriental walnut industry, from the standpoint of its future possibilities, the effect of its competition on the California industry, and its production outlook.
He comes to Southern California with the greatest mass of expert in-
BOARD REFUSES
OFFER FOR OIL LEASE
CITY DADS DECLINE TO TIE UP WEST ANAHEIM SEWER FARM
Will Walt Developments on Other Property Before Singing a Lease—Modified Form of Zoning Ordinance Introduced for First Reading and Will Probably be Adopted In Spits of Protests—May Not Submit It to a Vote of the People—Ames Wants Ordinance Reversed.
Like some of the land owners in this region, the city trustees have decided to hold their title clear to municipal lands until speculative oil companies have proved it to be valuable or worthless as oil producing territory. The offer of the West Coast Company for a lease on the thirty-acre sewer farm at West Anaheim was turned down by the board Thursday night after due considera-tion had been given to the offer.

Dr. Reed just recently returned from China where he spent four profitable months in making a first-hand survey of the Oriental walnut industry, from the standpoint of its future possibilities, the effect of its competition on the California industry, and its production outlook.
He comes to Southern California with the greatest mass of expert information on nut culture ever accumulated by any one person, and is prepared to illustrate his talk with a beautiful series of colored lantern slides of the world's nut industries, as well as several reels of motion pictures illustrating some of the outstanding features of the business.
Carlyle Thorpe, general manager of the California Walnut Growers Association, who surveyed the walnut industry of the Orient a year ago, will deliver a short address at this meeting concerning the marketing problems of the present year and the future.
Mr. Thorpe says that Dr. Reed's address will be the most noteworthy place in Southern California since the walnut industry was established.
"Every one who is interested in the business of growing walnuts, whether or not he or she be a walnut grower or a member of the Association, is invited and urged to be in attendance at this meeting," says Mr. Thorpe. "This is one of the big opportunities of the year, to those who would like to know more about the walnut business. I look for an overwhelming large attendance."
CALIFORNIA LEADS
California led all Sates in the Union except New York, in income derived from profits on the sale of real estate stocks and bonds, which was reported in personal income tax returns for the calendar year 1921.
Figures on the income tax survey for business year 1921, which were announced yesterday bp Collector of Internal Revenue Rex Goodcell, further shows that in personal income returns among the states, it is exceeded by New York, Pennsylvania and Illinois only. This officially designates California as one of the four big states.
Total personal income reported for income taxes in California reached the staggering sum of $1,386,491,000.
For wages and salaries, $752,998,000 was reported. This total was exceeded
Like some of the land owners in this region, the city trustees have decided to hold their title clear to municipal lands until speculative oil companies have proved it to be valuable or worthless as oil producing territory. The offer of the West Coast Company for a lease on the thirty-acre sewer farm at West Anaheim was turned down by the board Thursday night after due consideration had been given to the offer. It was decided to wait until other territory had been tested and proven before entering into a contract with any company. All members of the board are of opinion that there is abundant oil in the bowels of the earth beneath us, and they believe that in leasing at the present market price, they would be selling a gold mine belonging to the people for a few pieces of silver. They prefer to wait and take chances on future development.
Attorney Homer G. Ames., acting for H. P. Tobin, appeared before the trustees and asked that certain provisions of the zoning ordinance be reversed. Mr. Tobin is desirous of leasing a building which he is now erecting on North Los Angeles street for a garage, but this is prohibited by the ordinance which Mr. Ames drew up while he was city attorney. It was explained by Ames to the city council that the time had come in the growth of Anaheim when it was a necessity to extend the limits of the city to permit a greater growth of business. This brought about the question as to whether Center and Los Angeles streets would not be better devoted to commercial enterprises, other than the automobile industry.
The zoning ordinance restricting drilling for oil within the city limits, which has caused so much discussion and protest, was brought up again in a modified form. Owing to the numerous protests some changes were made in the original document, and the new ordinance was read for the first time Thursday night. It probably will be adopted at the next meeting although several protests were filed against it. A petition signed by owners of property on the east side between Center and Santa Ana streets was received and placed on file.
The petition declared that the owners of this section did not wish to be included in the proposed restricted district and asked that the city council eliminate the section. The petition was signed by the following: M. E.Canby, Maybella C. Hathway, F. H. Hathway, C. J. Tremblay, Winifred
BLAMED THE NEWSPAPERS
Dr. Frederick A. Cook does not like the newspapers. They have been spilling the beans for him all the way from a point not quite at the North Pole down to the oil fields of Texas. The doc says so himself and he does not like it.
It was the newspapers that kept the North Pole away from him just when he had decided to tell the world what it looked like. It was the newspapers that put him in wrong with the King of Denmark, after he had convinced his royal highness that he was the first and only North Pole vaulter out of captivity, and received a medal for it. It was then newspapers that took the oil out of his oil wells and fade a lot of people peevish.
That's the way it goes. The newspapers receive lots of blame, but when they stop to consider whence it comes and wherefore they do not feel so badly about it.
The longer automobile tours are better. They make you so much more glad to be back home.
