Industries listed in a chamber publication's article dealing with Los Angeles included three manufacturing concerns located at Orange, Johnson declared, adding: "The quicker we forget Los Angeles, the better off we will be." Raymer and Finch turned loose their verbal bombs in reporting on Fullerton's unsuccessful effort to have the Southern Branch of the State University located there. Finch stated the effort disclosed Orange county could unite on a proposition and also that "Los Angeles is just as selfish as ever." If Diogenes was looking for an honest man he never would go to Los Angeles," Raymer commented, while Johnson added: "Orange county didn't get the university because it didn't have a chance. The site proposition was cut and dried when the Los Angeles committee was appointed. Subsequent hearings and deliberations were arces, serving merely as blinds."

It has been charged that Anaheim keeps its helping hand behind its back. Ossasionally though, a stranger within the gates of the city goes forth from them bent upon refuting this slurder. Take the stout man from San Diego for example. He drove up to Los Angeles the other day—on Santa Monica boulevard to be exact—to attend the engagement party of a nephew who had been named after him. He owns and operates a small touring car of somewhat well-known make. On their way home they were rolling briskly along Center street in Anaheim when the engine sighed wearily and quit. He stepped on the starter. It growled obligingly, but didn't take. There wasn't even a responsive sigh. His wife said they had better hasten. It was getting late, and the high school girl who had minded the children had to be home by 10 o'clock. It was then a few minutes before 6. "I'd like to hurry," the motorist said, "but I've got to stay with this automobile." He advised her to go to the stage office and take a stage for home. She was maternal rather than mechanical, so she took his advice and left. He pushed the car in to the curb; took tools from under the rear seat; lifted the hood, and stared at the mute motor. "Looks just about the same as when it goes," he mused, and hit the cylinder block a blow with the monkey wrench. It was not intended as a constructive gesture, yet it helped. It acted as a mobilization call to almost every one within hearing. The pharmacist from the drug store on the corner came out from behind his case. The man who runs the book store just across the street left his enterprise unguarded and came over to the stalled machine. Three-passersby stopped, and a moment later the jeweler, the baker and the man who run the gents' furnishing store in the block joined the group. "I own one of them things myself," said the pharmacist. "I've got the same one five years." He said he was sure the carburetor was flooded. The book store man insisted that the little roller on the commutator had left its track. The baker said he wasn't the arguing kind, but he knew the gasoline line was stopped up. The others all volunteered explanations for the lack of locomotion. They removed the hood and got to work, each concentrating upon his notepad. Respectfully furnished a car labels will be on them.

SPEAKERS Warm Language Used at Monthly Meeting Thursday Night The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce came in for severe denunciation and the city was held to be "just as selfish as ever," in addresses made before the meeting of the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county, held at Santa Ana Thursday night. Launching the attack on the Los Angeles chamber was V. D. Johnson, secretary of the Orange Community Chamber of Commerce, and he was joined by George W. Raymer, secretary at Fullerton, and G. W. Finch of Fullerton. Johnson accused the Los Angeles Secretary Lee announced at the directors' meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, at the Tuesday meeting, that all arrangements had been completed with F. Gregory Beylek of Los Angeles and New York to move his orange crushing plant to this city. Mr. Beylek will operate a closed corporation and come to the Chamber of Commerce amply financed, asking ANAHEIM GAZETTE WEST COAST CALIFORNIA FRIDAY—SATURDAY 5—Classy Acts—5 Vaudeville Including "LA VERNE" AND HIS BEVEN SYNCOPATORS A Real Jazz Band Also— JOHNNY HINES In— "The Speed Spook" His Latest and Greatest Thrill Comedy SUNDAY—MONDAY AND TUESDAY No Advance in Prices The Great Divide With CONWAY TEARLE ALICE TERRY And WALLACE BEERY SPECIALE VAUDEVILLE ACT A crew of about ten will be employed, mostly women and girls for squeezing out the juices, as soon as the plant is running. The new company will advertise Placentia throughout the East, as its labels will bear the Placentia name on them. Mr. Beylek will shortly move his family to Placentia. Congratulations to the Chamber of Commerce are offered by ranchers and merchants alike, as an industry of this kind is a direct benefit to all and Placentia will support such a proposition because it is stragetically located and has the raw material to keep such a plant in operation. Ranchers benefit because there are many thousands of pounds of cull no financial help in the way of bonuses or stock selling or free ground. Secretary Lee has been persistently working along on this proposition for the past six months. Lately Mr. Beylek went East, where he wired that he had secured orders for nearly 50,000 gallons of orange and lemon juices. New machinery has been purchased in the East and is now on its way, together with a half dozen carloads of oaken barrels to this coast and Placentia via the Panama canal. Beylek has leased the old cannery plant for a period of five years, and it is expected will be in operation during the next coming three or four weeks. The plant will be equipped with new machinery, presses, pre-cooler tanks, condensor, cutting machines, electric motors, vacuum equipment, tanks, etc., while a new high speed condenser of juice vapors will later be installed. It is estimated by Mr. Beylek that his total investment in Placentia will be in the neighborhood of $15,000, and that after he gets going he will buy from local ranchers, packing houses and others at least $1000 worth of cull oranges and lemons per month. Miller paid $10 for his Arizona motor vehicle license, and was then informed that he would have to pay an additional $7.10 as personal property tax of the car. When Miller asked to be allowed to talk the matter over with the sheriff, the motorcycle officer told him that he could not see that officer, and would have to pay the fees demanded. This morning Miller said: "My advice is to stay away from Miami and Globe." James may be LABELS FOR U. 8. INTERNATIONAL TRADE HOUSES LOST VOLUMES OF BUSINESS Commercial relations between the United States and Latin-America are such that exporters of this country virtually regard Latin-American markets as domestic. This is the view of Julius Klein, director of foreign commerce of the Department of Commerce, who pointed out that our business and financial dealings with South America are much closer and more direct than they were a few years ago. "Not so long ago a great portion of the trade for our Latin-American export was handled by international tradin houses, which took care of all technical details after the goods had been delivered to them at the port of shipment," Klein said. "Such houses still occupy an important place, but an increasing number of our manufacturers and merchants find it necessary to study the local situation in various Latin-American countries on their own account." In so doing, regardless of their methods of distribution, they are merely adopting a policy, for example, like that of a manufacturer in New England, who keeps informed of labels will bear the Placentia name on them. Mr. Boylek will shortly move his family to Placentia. Congratulations to the Chamber of Commerce are offered by ranchers and merchants alike, as an industry of this kind is a direct benefit to all and Placentia will support such a proposition because it is stragetically located and has the raw material to keep such a plant in operation. Ranchers benefit because there are many thousands of pounds of culls new being hauled to the dumps that can be turned into cash. Business men benefit because it means another payroll for the community. The railroad company benefits from increased freight shipments, and the property owner turn their empty buildings into an income. It must be realized that Placentia had a hard proposition before her to compete with adjoining towns for manufacturing and industries. The ground work, such as sewer, pavements and getting lined up for industrial site, is just getting under way. These are necessary to compete with neighboring cities. LATIN-AMERICAN MARKETS FOR U. 8.

Congratulations to the Chamber of Commerce are offered by ranchers and merchants alike, as an industry of this kind is a direct benefit to all and Placentia will support such a proposition because it is stragetically located and has the raw material to burnen any person driving an automobile on public highways without 1925 license plates. This was announced today by Will H. Marsh, chief of the division, who stated he would shortly prepare a formal order for Chief Inspector C. K. Harder. Marsh estimates that by the above date the division will have taken care of all applications for new plates now in the files and that ample time will have elapsed for motor vehicle owners to fasten them to their cars. License fees became delinquent March 2, but application may still be made by paying the regular fee plus the penalties. Marsh urged all motorists who have not done so to make application at once and avoid arrest. Several thousand dollars have already been collected in delinquent fees. Registrations to date for 1925, inclusive of automobiles, pneumatic and solid trucks; motorcycles and trailers approximate $1,200,000. TRY ANYTHING ONCE A married couple had engaged a cook.
