VOLUME LIV MODIFICATION OF QUARANTINE MEASURES HOOF AND MOUTH DISEASE BE-LIEVED TO BE UNDER CONTROL Herd at County Line Infected, but Prompt Action will Prevent Further Spread—Uniform Quarantine Regulations for all Counties to be Adopted—Federal and State Officials to Have Complete Charge of the Work, Relieving the County Organizations. Although the hoof and mouth disease made its appearance in a dairy herd at Los Alamitos last week, prompt and drastic action on the part of officials, it is believed, has confined it to the one ranch. Eight infected sergeant-at-arms; Lee Elcholtz, H. H. Thompson & Main, and all the stock on the plough was immediately slainselves in readiness to assist the veterinarians of the Federal and State forces, should special services be needed. “In the quarantined counties we will be glad to inform the officials where they can effectively and economically be of the greatest help such as the supplyng of guards for the closing of roads in the immediate vicinity of infected herds. “In our eradication work we are exercising the greatest care in placing guards where they are necessary and with these guards in position the general public may be assured every precaution has been taken to safeguard them and they may proceed about their routine affairs without fear. “As far as the Federal and State government are concerned, there are no serious objections to allowing motorists and other travelers in the National Parks and recreation grounds All we ask is that they remain away from infected areas. “County regulations prohibiting stream and lake fishing in districts not under quarantine, may be regarded as unnecessarily drastic. State regulations have been modified by Director Hecke and now only prohibit lake and stream fishing in infected areas instead of all quarantined coun- Although the hoof and mouth disease made its appearance in a dairy herd at Los Alamitos last week, prompt and drastic action on the part of officials, it is believed, has confined it to the one ranch. Eight infected sergeant-at-arms; Lee Elcholtz, H. H. Thompson & Main, and all the stock on the place was immediately slaughtered. Prompt steps were taken to eradicate the germs. It is believed communication with other cattle in the neighborhood has been prevented. At a meeting of the representatives of the Ten Southern Counties Saturday, an agreement was reached to adopt a uniform quarantine regulation ordinance for counties. This will greatly relieve traffic and have a tendency to return inter-county commerce to normal conditions. The public, however, should not take advantage of the easing-up of the quarantine to run wild, as it will be necessary to use great care for some time to prevent spread of the disease. A close guard will be placed over infected areas and no persons will be allowed to enter or leave them without proper inspection and permit. Quick action on the part of the Quarantine Enforcement division of the Citizens' Emergency Committee, which is in charge of the investigational work for the State Department of Agriculture, recently prevented a possible spread of the hoof and mouth disease into Imperial County. When Thompson & Main herd in Orange County was discovered to be infected, it was learned that two milkers had quit work and left the place earlier in the day and before the disease was found. Both of these men were possible carriers of the disease and the Quarantine Committee immediately began search for them. One was found to be enroute to Calexico by train to visit a brother who is a sheep owner in the Valley, Imperial authorities were notified and he was taken from the train at El Centro. He was given a disinfecting bath and new clothes and his old clothes burned. He was then allowed to go on his way. It was found that after leaving the ranch he had come to Los Angeles and stayed over night at a hotel near the Plaza. The hotel room in which he slept was closed and disinfected, as were his effects which were left in storage at the hotel. "County regulations prohibiting stream and lake fishing in districts not under quarantine, may be regarded as unnecessarily drastic. State regulations have been modified by Director Hecke and now only prohibit lake and stream fishing in infected areas instead of all quarantined counties. This frees large sections." After a short period it may be expected that unnecessary embargoes established by various Western States against products of California in their sincere but unscientific effort to protect themselves from outbreaks of the foot and mouth disease in certain small areas in California will be modified. This is a message sent to California by Secretary Wallace and Dr. Mohler, Chief of the Department of Animal Industry through a special committee of California citizens returning after a week's conference with Washington officials. Sam Greene of the California Dairy Council handed a statement to Director Hecke of the State Department of Agriculture, Sacramento, in behalf of the committee: C. C. Teague and Frederick W. Kissel representing the California Development Association, Al Spencer of the California Wool Growers' Association and himself The establishment follows: "Our conference with Secretary Wallace and Dr. Mohler has given us every assurance that not only will every effort be made to stamp out the foot and mouth disease in California as quickly as possible, but that the various unnecessary embargoes by other states which are having an injurious effect upon industry, not only in Western States, but in various was throughout the whole nation, will soon be modified. A rapid return to normal business conditions will result. "An analysis made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture of former outbreaks in the United States (five major and three minor ones) covering a period of 54 years, shows that in every instance where the animal disease occurred in new territory there was a tendency on the part of the public to put into effect extreme quarantine regulations and embargoes in their sincere effort to safeguard their interests, but in every instance, as soon as time had allowed the public to learn of the actual nature of no serious objections to allowing motorists and other travelers in the National Parks and recreation grounds All we ask is that they remain away from infected areas. "County regulations prohibiting stream and lake fishing in districts not under quarantine, may be regarded as unnecessarily drastic. State regulations have been modified by Director Hecke and now only prohibit lake and stream fishing in infected areas instead of all quarantined counties. This frees large sections."

He was given a disinfecting bath and new clothes and his old clothes burned. He was then allowed to go on his way. It was found that after leaving the ranch he had come to Los Angeles and stayed over night at a hotel near the Plaza. The hotel room in which he slept was closed and disinfected, as were his effects which were left in storage at the hotel. The other man has been traced to the vicinity of Long Beach and is said to be seeking work as a milker. He is a heavy-set Italian named Tony and is very slovenly dressed. If all dairymen are faithfully obeying the order not to hire men who cannot produce the proper disinfection certificate, he will not be a source of danger, but is being sought in order that he may be disinfected. "County officials and county organizations in unquarantined districts, after cooperating to the fullest with the Federal and State authorities in foot and mouth eradication work, may safely relinquish county regulations and return to normalcy." Dr. U. G. Houck, in command of Federal and State workers, made this statement today: Dr. Houck, with complete support of Governor Richardson, and G. H. Hecke, Director of the California Department of Agriculture, after a survey of late reports from inspectors in the field, said: "In all counties of the state where there are no cases of the foot and mouth disease and which are known as free counties, normal conditions may be resumed. Livestock owners in these counties should, however, exercise the greatest care in the employment of dairy hands, such as milkers. They should also hold them- partment of Agriculture of former outbreaks in the United States (five major and three minor ones) covering a period of 54 years, shows that in every instance where the animal disease occurred in new territory there was a tendency on the part of the public to put into effect extreme quarantine regulations and embargoes in their sincere effort to safeguard their interests, but in every instance, as soon as time had allowed the public to learn of the actual nature of the disease, methods of combatting it and its channels of spread, the public has accepted the Federal regulations which have been built through years of experience and found to amply safeguard not only the interests of other districts but the work of officials in their eradication fight. "An analysis of the present situation shows that only those States which have never experienced outbreaks of the foot and mouth disease have placed drastic and unnecessary embargoes, injurious to national commerce. The analysis further shows a very interesting fact that not one of the States which suffered so severely during the 1914-15 outbreak, when over 177,000 head of livestock were destroyed, have placed any embargoes other than those recommended by Federal authorities which ban only livestock and unpasteurized products and hay, grain and feed from infected areas. "Secretary Wallace assured us that his department will send authoritative information on the situation to those States which have disrupted commerce through sincere but unscientific quarantine regulations. "We feel that we may expect almost immediate relief in the embargo situation and that our healthy crops will be distributed through their natural commercial channels." AHEIM GAZETTE Anaheim, California, Thursday, May 8, 1924 New Presbyterian Church to be Built at Broadway and Clementine We show the Architect's prespective of the proposed First Presbyterian church of Anaheim, estimated to cost $150,000.00 which the congregation considered at its last meeting and which Rev.

The intense and appreciative silence with which his We show the Architect's prespective of the proposed First Presbyterian church of Anaheim, estimated to cost $150,000.00 which the congregation considered at its last meeting and which Rev. Thomas H. Walker pastor of the church said it is hoped may soon be erected on the church property at the South West corner of West Broadway and Clementine Sts. The tentative plans were prepared by H. M. Patterson of Los Angeles who has many church buildings to his credit. The massive towers are the outstanding feature of this structure which is of Gothic design and is to be built of solid brick. It is very much like the First Presbyterian church of San Diego, California. The auditorium with its gallery will comfortably seat eight hundred and fifty, is to be equipped with pipe organ and chimes. The matter of securing pledges of a sufficiently large amount to support the project so that actual building operations may commence in the near future is in the hands of a committee consisting of M. E. Beebe, Chairman, Wm T. Wallop, Mrs. O. H. Renner, George W: Sloop, Frank N. Gibbs, H. G. Archibald, Arthur Coons, Mrs. F. K. Day, Dr. H. A. Johnston and O. H. Renner. While this committee have only been working since the tentative plans were accepted they feel encouraged at the response made by those who have been approached. The social hall and Sabbath school building has three floors. The ground floor contains the dining hall, kitchen Junior Department, Mens' Bible class and rest rooms. The Chapel, church office, women's parlor with its kitchenette, cradle roll, beginners, primary and intermediate departments of the Sabbath school are on the first floor. Young peoples endeavor assembly, S. Office and class rooms use up the second floor. An open court between and a covered cloister connecting the buildings add to the beauty and convenience of the plant. Every one of the forty-eight separate class rooms is provided with day light and the arrangement of departmental assembly rooms agrees with the most progressive idea in Sabbath school organization. The first church of this demonination in Anaheim was erected in 1873, fifty-one years ago. On August 17, of that year, it was dedicated with fitting ceremonies. The Gazette of August 23, 1873, contains the following account of the dedication: "Punctually at eleven o'clock on last Sabbath the new church building, recently erected by the Presbyterians of Anaheim, was filled to its utmost capacity by a large and appreciative audience, gathered in order to witness its consecration to the worship of the Almighty. The exercises of the day were opened by a voluntary from the choir and a short prayer, invoking the Divine presence. After the usual song, prayer and reading of the scriptures the Rev. Robert Patterson of Chicago, delivered a most eloquent and impressive address. The doctor is evidently of that nationality which has furnished to the Christian tale was a romance or Wheeler was an adept in covering up his footprints. Wheeler was immediately discharged on the reading of the verdict. Abernathy's attorney, W. I. Gilbert filed motion for a new trial which overruled by Judge Bledsoe. Then he filed a writ of error which will stay execution of sentence until it is heard. He was returned to jail under a bond of $30,000. Abernathy's guilt was so conclusively proven that tricks of attorneys to override justice will probably have no weight with the court. Judge J. U. Hemmi, whose fate hung upon the conviction or innocence of Abernathy, will now be brought to trial. Judge Hemmi, it is alleged world and more particularly to the disciples of Calvin so many able and earnest leaders. It is not often that Anaheimers have an opportunity of sitting under the ministration of so eminent a divine. The intense and appreciative silence with which his remarks were received evidences in a striking manner the tribute which is unconscious paid to his eloquence and ability. At the close of Dr. Patterson's remarks the board of trustees submitted their report, showing the building to be in debt only about $300 An appeal was made by the pastor, Mr. Webber, to the public, with most gratifying results. In a few minutes the amount needed was subscribed when with appropriate ceremonies the building, unincumbered with debt, was consecrated to the service of God. In this connection we cannot refrain from speaking a few words of commendation regarding the board of trustees—Messrs. Higgins, Pierce, Thompkins, Bancfoft and Mrs. McKinnie. To their energy and heartfelt interest in raising the necessary funds to build, and to their business tact and economical management of the finances it fthe church, may be attributed the flattering exhibit made on Sunday. Knowing the many difficulties which time and again presented themselves to interfere with the discharge of their duty, we believe that we but express the feeling actuating the Presbyterians of Anaheim, in thanks them for their valuable aid, in the erection of the first protestant house of worship in this place."

IN Katella, Cypress and Laurel, but were defeated in Magnolia, Loara, Savanna and Cypress. At the election some months ago the proposition was defeated by Savanna, which gave an almost unanimous vote against it. Last Wednesday Savanna polled 50 votes, only 14 of them being for the bonds. Centralia, with 33 votes polled, cast only 2 for the bonds. Cypress cast only one vote against them.

Convicted of Mail Robbery on Five Charges and Draws Four Five Year Sentences, to Run Concurrently—Will Serve in The Federal Prison at Leavenworth, Kansas—Charles R. Wheeler acquitted by the Jury, and immediately Discharged. Monkeying with Uncle Sam's mail is an unsafe pastime. This has been forebly impressed upon the mind of Joseph R. Abernathy, who plotted to make some easy money by robbing the Anaheim postoffice, or holding up the mail while in transit from the postoffice to the train. Abernathy was convicted on five counts last week in United States Court at Los Angeles, and on Friday Judge Bledsoe sentenced him to serve five years in the federal prison at Leavenworth, Kansas, and to pay a fine of $10,000. The confession of J. L. Finday implicating Abernathy, was amply corroborated by postoffice sleuths, and in addition they unearthed much evidence of which Findlay had no knowledge. Charles R. Wheeler, registry clerk at the postoffice, named by Findlay in his confession as one of the trio who plotted to rob the mails, was discharged, the detectives being unable to find anything beyond Findlay's story that implicated him. According to the decision of the jury Findlay's overruled by Judge Bledsoe. Then he filed a writ of error which will stay execution of sentence until it is heard. He was returned to jail under a bond of $30,000. Abernathy's guilt was so conclusively proven that tricks of attorneys to override justice will probably have no weight with the court. Judge J. U. Hemmi, whose fate hung upon the conviction or innocence of Abernathy, will now be brought to trial. Judge Hemmi, it is alleged acted as agent for Abernathy in disposing of the stolen maney. More than $5,000 of the stolen loot was found buried in his garden at Torrence. His plea is that he was told by Abernathy the money was a commission paid him for landing a harbor contract for a construction firm, and the transaction was to be kept secret. Abernathy's sentence was five years on each of four counts, and $10,000 fine on the other one. The penitentiary sentences run concurrently, however, so that all will expire at once. The fine will be worked out at the rate of $3 per day, which means 3333 days of hard labor with nothing but his board and clothes as compensation. RURAL DISTRICTS AGAIN DEFEAT THE BONDS High School Improvements Lost by Only 15 Votes Once again the country districts defeated the efforts of the Anaheim high school board to maintain an educational institution commensurate with the increasing population. The proposed $200,000 bond issue was voted down last Wednesday by 15 votes in a total of 1554 cast. The bonds safely carried in the city, also imous vote against it. Last Wednesday Savanna polled 50 votes, only 14 of them being for the bonds. Centralia, with 33 votes polled, cast only 2 for the bonds. Cypress cast only one vote against them.

Three hundred persons were in attendance at the annual meeting of the Orange County Bankers' Association held at Elks Club house last Thursday evening. Every bank in the County was represented, and nearly all the bankers present were accompanied by their wives. H. H. Benjamin, cashier of the First National of this city, president of the Association, acted as toastmaster, and carried out the program, which consisted mostly of entertainment, as little business was transacted beyond the election of a new set of officers. A. B. McCord, cashier of the Anaheim National bank, secretary of the Association, was head of the arrangement committee, and was given credit for the beautiful decorations, the excellent entertainment and the appetizing feed. S. C. Hartranft, chief speaker of ETTE Number 30 mentine the evening gave an address on banking, reviewing the history of the banking business from its inception. He declared that the day was not distant when the great Pacific Coast would be the center of industry for North America and that is was the duty of the banks and bankers to bend every effort toward that end. He said that the condition of the banks reflected the prosperity of the country and that on the shoulders of the men at the helm of the financial institutions rested in a large measure the continued advance of the prosperity that has made California and particularly Southern California one o f the white spots of the United States. J. M. Woodward, president of the First National of Garden Grove, was elected president of the Association, W. B. Williams, cashier of the First National at Santa Ana, vice president, J. L. Hinkle, vice president of the First National at Huntington Beach, secretary, and J. L. Porter, cashier of the National Bank of Orange, treasurer. WANTED TO FIGHT BUT LANDED IN JAIL J. E. Hilend Locked Up on a Charge of Insanity. J. E. Hilend was arrested at his HIRAM JOHNSON SWEPT INTO THE DISCARD CALIFORNIA REPUBLICANS UNLOAD HIM AT TUESDAY'S PRIMARY ELECTION. President Coolidge Carries the State by at Least 60,000 Majority—Orange County Gives the President a Majority of 3500, and Anaheim Defeats Hiram Two to One—Indiana Votes for Coolidge Six to One—Very Light Vote Cast Hee. Hiram Johnson's presidential asperations were forever blasted by the Republicans of California Tuesday. CALIFORNIA'S CHOICE WANTED TO FIGHT BUT LANDED IN JAIL J. E. Hilend Locked Up on a Charge of Insanity. J. E. Hilend was arrested at his home, 413 Chestnut street, Sunday evening by officers Baxter and Whalen, and locked in the city jail on a charge of disturbing the peace. Hilend is a son of the late J. S. Hilend, formerly a prominent contractor here, the man who built Masonic Temple. Sunday evening the young man sampled a concoction of home brew which he had made and the stuff was so powerful that he was suddenly seized with an irresistible desire to fight. He went to the house of a neighbor loudly proclaiming his intention of damaging some bodys person. The man of the house was absent, and his frightened wife hastily locked and barred the doors and windows. He persisted in his efforts to break into the house until the police, who had been summoned by neighbors, arrived on the scene and took him in custody. The officers also confiscated several bottles of liquor and two guns. On Monday Mrs. J. S. Hilend, mother of the young man, swore to a complaint charging him with insanity, and he was taken to the county hospital for examination. ROTARY CLUB INSTALLS ITS NEWEST OFFICERS The Rotary Club installed its newly elected officers at the regular luncheon at Elks club Monday. The new officers are, Carl Leonard president; Rev. Thomas Walker, secretary; W. A. Dolan, treasurer; Oscar Hoyling, sergeant-at-arms; Lee Elchatz, H. H. Benjamin, H. E. W. Barnes and Dr. Newkirk, directors. S. C. Hartrault was the speaker of the day and gave the new officers some good advice. Ed. Schneider was chairman of the day's program. President Leonard was elected delegate to the convention of Rotary International at Toronto, Canada. The following committees were announced by the president: Program Committee—Harris Newkirk, chairman; Ernest Beard, H.E. CALVIN COOLIDGE State after state has lined up against him during the past few weeks, but all hope was not lost so long as California remained loyal. And now he has been repudiated in the house of his fiends. For many years Hiram has been an Old Man of the Sea bestriding the neck of the Republican party of California. For many years his wonderful machine, composed of Republicans, Progressives, Democrats, Prohibitionists, bootleggers, Socialists, bolsheviks and non-partisans has loyally supported him and made him dictator of California politics, but his Republican following have been gradually falling away, realizing that although posing as a Republican he is the party's bitterest enemy, always lining up with its opponents in the Senate, and abusing its leaders on the stump. Latest returns from Tuesday's primary election indicate that President Coolidge has carried the state by 60,000. All returns from the county precincts are not yet in, but it is evident from the figures so far received at the county clerk's office that Coolidge will Last Wednesdays, votes, only 14 bonds. Censored, cast only less cast only. Benjamin, H. E. W. Barnes and Dr. Newkirk, directors. S. C. Hartrauft was the speaker of the day and gave the new officers some good advice. Ed.

Riley, Geo. Reid. International Relationship—Harry Riley. Latest returns from Tuesday's primary election indicate that President Coolidge has carried the state by 60-000. All returns from the county precincts are not yet in, but it is evident from the figures so far received at the county clerk's office that Coolidge's majority in the county will reach 3500. Anaheim cast only about one-fourth of its registered vote, but the president carried it two to one. William G. McAdoo was the only candidate on the Democrat ticket, consequent only a few Bourbon votes were cast in each precinct. Eugene V. Debs also polled a few votes. Johnson goes into the Cleveland convention with 13 votes. He probably knows that thirteen is not lucky number. At any rate he will be convinced of it after the first ballot is taken. It was announced yesterday by officials in charge that the foot and mouth disease will practically be stamped out within three weeks. There have been no outbreaks in uninfected territory within 12 days and no new cases within the quarantined district within a week. Federal officials in charge of the quarantine work believe that the plague is now fully under control. The warm summer weather and the rapid growth of pasture is assisting in the eradication of the disease. Should this prediction be true, and all danger from the disease be eliminated within three or four weeks, there is a probability that Anaheim will give its orange show some time in mid-summer.
