Anaheim Gazette ESTABLISHED 1870 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 MIX MONTHS ... $1.00 CHREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter DO DEMOCROATS FAVOR CANCELLATION There is no more significant feature of the campaign than the attitude of the opposing candidates and their platforms on the foreign debt of the United States. The Democratic platform has not a word to say on the subject and so far as possible neither of the Democratic candidates has broken his deep silence on that issue. They are apparently willing that the people of the United States should be lulled to a false pretense of security on that point, into a feeling that the agreements consummated by the Republican administration with Great Britain, Finland and Hungary, as a matter of course, be explained to include all the debtor countries. Few people realize just how serious this matter of the foreign debt really is. Of the total amount, some four billion dollars has been funded, due to the efforts of the Republican government and the treasury is now receiving regular interest and principal payments that relieve our taxpayers of the necessity of paying interest and sinking fund on an equal amount of Liberty Bonds, and that will completely retire that huge total in about sixty years. But there still "Probably the most startling survey made by the National Association of Real Estate Boards, during the past four years, has been the one concerning the levying of taxes. This Real Estate survey shows that real estate throughout the entire country pays approximately more than 80 percent, of the total tax. The survey further shows that this is primarily due to the general apathy and laxity throughout the country in levying tax on so-called hidden and foreign securities. Further investigation shows that a great many of the states of the Union are considering seriously the right to reasonably and fairly tax such securities. In fact, measures of this character have already been adopted by the voters of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. "Here in California a conservative estimate makes certain that there are at least two billions of dollars in such securities that should be taxed at a just rate. The November election we have the opportunity of voting to give the Legislature the right to impose an equitable tax on such securities. By voting "YES" on measure No. 9, every citizen of California must see that he is doing his part to make a fair distribution of public expense." STORE POWDER IN WATER Storing smokeless powder under water in cold mountain lakes has been found by experiments conducted by the Army at Picatinny arsenal to be practical and to provide a method of storage of large quantities of powder with no danger of fire or explosion.

Until Sir thrice preses James, as w of India, Pe countries vol research wo learn the de in 1775, for this matter of the foreign debt really is. Of the total amount, some four billion dollars has been funded, due to the efforts of the Republican government and the treasury is now receiving regular interest and principal payments that relieve our taxpayers of the necessity of paying interest and sinking fund on an equal amount of Liberty Bonds, and that will completely retire that huge total in about sixty years. But there still remains in the Treasury the enormous balance of some $7,200,000,000 owed American taxpayers by foreign governments, which is represented solely by demand promissory notes. No interest is being paid on them and the nations that owe the money have ignored invitations from the American Debt Commission to accept settlements similar to that made With Great Britain. It is in securing the eventual repayment of that huge sum that the American taxpayers are now vitally interested. The Democratic platform ignores the subject, but devotes pages to other items that aggregate only a small fraction of the unpaid debt total, and that should command correspondingly less attention from the people. President Coolidge and the platform on which he is running meet the situation squarely and if the Republican administration is continued in power taxpayers have assurance that refunding operations so successfully conducted with three debtor nations will be extended to include them all. "I do not favor the cancellation of this debt," said President Coolidge, "but I see no objection to adjusting it in accordance with the principal adopted for the British debt. Our country would not wish to assume the role of an oppressive creditor, but would maintain the principle that financial obligations between nations are like wise moral obligations which international faith and honor require should be discharged. The Republican Party platform stands for settlements with all debtor countries similar to that with Great Britain. In fulfillment of our pledge in the National platform of 1920, it reads: 'we have steadfastly refused to consider the cancellation of foreign debts. Our attitude has not been that of an oppressive creditor seeking immediate return and ignoring existing financial conditions. Our position has been based on the conviction that a Storing silently excess water in cold mountain lakes has been found by experiments conducted by the Army at Picatinny arsenal to be practical and to provide a method of storage of large quantities of powder with no danger of fire or explosion. By this means a constant low temperature is maintained which retards the decomposition of powder which would normally take place if it were stored in magazines and probably increases the life of the powder by ten years. Powder which has been in storage for several years under water can be given a simple drying treatment and fired in the gun for which it was originally designed without appreciable variation in velocity and pressure. These conditions are maintained with little difference whether the powder is stored in sea water or in fresh water. Three types of powder have been used in the under water storage experiments at Picatinny arsenal. Powder for 75-mm and 12 inch guns was placed in specially prepared boxes provided with numerous openings to allow free circulation of water and immersed in the lake to a depth of about three feet. For the purpose of comparison an equal amount of each kind of powder was stored in a magazine in order that tests could be made whenever samples were removed from the lake. At the end of six months samples taken from the lake were found to have undergone no appreciable change, either in stability or ballistic qualities. The tests also indicated that very little difficulty would be encountered in preparing these powders for use after storage under water. U.S.C. With less than a week of practice separating the University of Southern California from the day it will hop off for Portland and the opening game of the Pacific Coast Conference schedule with the Oregon Aggies, Coach Elmer Henderson is driving the Trojans through a terrific practice grind these days. Although U. S. C. plays the University of Arizona gridders here in its third and last practice game of the season Saturday, the game with P. J. Schlissler's Oregon Agricultural College eleven towers above everything else on the Trojan gridiron horizon. U. S. C. started the season realiz- The Republican Party platform stands for settlements with all debtor countries similar to that with Great Britain. In fulfillment of our pledge in the National platform of 1920, it reads: 'we have steadfastly refused to consider the cancellation of foreign debts. Our attitude has not been that of an oppressive creditor seeking immediate return and ignoring existing financial conditions. Our position has been based on the conviction that a moral obligation such as was incurred should not be disregarded. Internationalists favor not only American entrance into the League of Nations but also the remission of a part or all of the foreign debt to the United States. The Democratic party and its candidates are accorded the support of our internationalists as a whole, and the silence of the platform on the debt question in as evident bid for that support. Our voters are confronted with the practical question. Do they want $7,200,000,000 of our foreign debt collected, as the Republicans are now collecting $4,600,000,000 of it or do they want to put a party in power that will leave probably all of that huge sum to be paid by American taxpayers themselves. AMENDMENT NO 9 Frank Ryan, former President of the Los Angeles Realty Board, and Pacific Coast Director of the National Real Estate Board, Chairman of the Southern Organization Committee of the California Taxation Improvement Association today issued the following statement in behalf of Measure No. 9 on the November 4th ballot, which measure provides for the imposing of a reasonable tax on "foreign securities." Mr. Ryan's statement reads: If the spirit that is creeping into the Camp of Troy continues to grow, the Aggies are going to be hit harder by U.S.C. next week than any other team they face during the year. The tough time that the Trojans had in scoring on the light Pomona eleven last week convinced Henderson that he hasn't the right backfield combination working together yet. Hawkins is the only fixture in the U.S.C. backfield so far. The Captain of the Trojans played a bang up game last Saturday at quarterback and made the entire U.S.C. score, despite the handicap of a bruised hand that was as swollen as a toy balloon. With Halley Adams back working at his old former position, "Indian" Newman has been put in at an outside halfback position, instead of Honey Earle, who failed to show to advantage last week. Johnny Riddle's terrific line plunging ability has given him the call over Manuel Laraneta at the "inside" half. With Henry Lefebvre on the side lines with a charley horse, two men, Otto Anderson and Bob Lee, are working to grab the fullback position. Anderson hasn't played in a game this year, because of a bad eye. Lee's punting last week was far from satisfactory, so it wouldn't be a great surprise if the great hurdler would start as a fallback against Arizona. The line hasn't been shifted since last week. Newton Stark played a great game against Pomona at end and with both Gadgro and Dorsey suffering from injuries, looks like a cinch for a regular job at one of the winger. Hobbs Adams and Hadyn Pythian are battling for the other flank position. ROYAL AUTHORITY AIDED GRIFFITH Sir Percy Sykes of London, Eng., former commander in chief of the British forces in Persia, and authority in royal court etiquette aided D. W. Griffith in staging several of the foremost spectacular scenes in "America" the romantic photodrama of the War of Independence, which will have its premiere at the California theater Sunday. Until Sir Percy, who has been thrice presented at the Court of St. James, as well as at the royal courts of India, Persia and other eastern countries volunteered, Griffith and his research workers were at a loss to learn the details of court ceremonies in 1775, for despite the voluminous therein may appear and contest the same.

Until Sir Percy, who has been thrice presented at the Court of St. James, as well as at the royal courts of India, Persia and other eastern countries volunteered, Griffith and his research workers were at a loss to learn the details of court ceremonies in 1775, for despite the voluminous writings of the diarists of that period none of them described formal court etiquette in detail. Just prior to Sir Percy's arrival, Griffith, after months of search, had engaged a foreign actor who bore an uncanny resemblance to the best authenticated pictures of King George, Third, for that role. So much did this actor look the part and play it that Sir Percy, a deep student of George's reign, seemed to forget that he was dealing with a modern actor, and when addressing the latter always did so with a deep bow and with the words, "If his Majesty will deign—" GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP IN FRANCE France has six railroads owned and operated by private companies and one that is operated by the government. This is what M. Georges Allix cells France about its "State System" of railway operation in an article in Revue Politique at Parlementario (Paris) of June 10: In extent, in the resources of the regions they traverse, and in the nature of their traffic, the Orleans (privately owned) and the state system are very similar; moreover they are operated with the same competence by a personnel of equal capacity. But wheeras the former" (the Orleans) "operates with a surplus of 113 million francs, an increase of 83 millions over that of 1922, the latter" (the state system) "operates by 8 or ten millions for 1923. Such a poor showing is only attributable to the inherent defects of all state enterprises. It continues to give strong reason to those who are calling for recorganization of the system." Here are the two methods, one of private and the other of government ownership in comparison. One makes money, the other loses money. Here are the same factors contributing to day of September, A.
