ANAHEIM GAZETTE ESTABLISHED 1870 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Henry Kuchel Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR $1.50 SIX MONTHS $1.00 THREE MONTHS $ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter FIGURES ON IMMIGRATION Immigration statistics for the year ending June 30 show a result that must gratify those who fear too great a number of immigrants to be assimilated. Not only are the numbers arriving considerably below the number we are willing to accept, but for each three newcomers there is one alien resident who returns to his native land. While 294,728 immigrants landed on our shores or crossed our borders last year, 92,728 aliens returned to their own country. The net increase from this source was then but 201,586, while in the previous year, before the operation of the new law became effective, it was 630,107. In several instances the number of foreign-born going out far exceeded the number of nationals coming in. This was notably the case with Italy. Only 6203 Italians arrived during the year, and in this same period 27,151 Italians returned to Italy. Greece, Hungary, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Jugo-Slavia, Portugal and Rumania also received back more of their nationals than they sent to this country. Of particular interest to the Pacific coast are the figures dealing with the movement of the Chinese and Japanese. Chinese to the number of 3412 returned to their homes during the year and 1937 arrived. Of Japanese there were 1212 departing and 723 coming in. Great Britain has been disturbed by an unemployment problem, but unsettled labor conditions there have not turned the tide toward the United States, the quota remaining unfilled by 12½ per cent.

It is a war against accidents on the streets, at home and in workshops and places of daily activity. A safety congress meeting will be held in Cleveland, Ohio, soon. Thirty nations will be represented at this meeting. Here is a cause that should enlist the deep interest of each and every American. Much horror is felt and expressed about the terrors of warfare. And yet, right here at home, there is a menace, day in and day out year in and year out, that takes more lives, in the long run, than war has taken from the manhood of this country. The United States stands indicted before the world as being the most careless of the lives of its citizens. This country has a deplorably high rate of deaths from accident—76.3 fatalities for every 100,000 of population. The record for England and Wales is only 33.6 for every 100,000 inhabitants. Denmark has the low record of 20 fatalities for each 100,000 population. America is killing and mutilating its people at a frightful rate, in accidents that multiply year after year. Traffic deaths alone run into many thousands annually. Industrial accidents cause many fatalities. And fatal mishaps of divers kinds swell the grusome record. More persons die in accidents in this country annually, and more are injured, than are killed or wounded in a great battle. The slaughter entailed upon this country is more frightful than the slaughter of warfare. Very much in order is it to strive to curtail these frightful losses. Stanton Notes (By M. RILEY) Mrs. J. C.

MILLER) The Cypress community was greatly shocked and grieved over the untimely death of Joe Burch at the Uplands sanatorium last Saturday morning, at 5:10 o'clock. Death came as the result of burns received while attempting to fill a gas tank on a Fordson while the machine was running. The large funnel used in filling the tank tipped saturating Joe's clothing from the waist down, at the same time some of the distillate contacted with the exhaust pipe, which igniting, caused Joe to become a human torch. The burns were so severe that there was no hope of his recovery. The accident happened at 2:30 o'clock Friday afternoon, and death came as a relief following morning. Mr. Burch has been connected with his cousin, Job Dennie, in the dairy business at Cypress the past five years. About three weeks ago he suffered a broken arm and could not attend to his duties in the dairy, so he went to Mr. Dennie's place at Chino to recuperate. Friday morning they were filling a large silo on the Dennie place, and the tractor used for power ran out of fuel. Joe attempted to help out by filling the gas tank, and lost his life. Mr. Burch was a nephew of Louis Dennie, the Signal Hill oil magnate, and a cousin to Job Dennie. Besides these, he is survived by an aged mother, who resides in Switzerland. The body was in state at Backs & Terry's funeral parlor Tuesday morning. High mass was said at the Catholic church at 9 o'clock, and the body was laid to rest in the Catholic cemetery. Joe was a kindly man, one who was always ready to lend a helping hand. He was a builder of friendships, and all ANAHEIM GAZETTE who knew him are greatly grieved at his untimely passing. The four-room house and garage building on the James Silvas ranch, just south of town, was completely destroyed by fire last Thursday afternoon. The Silvas have been living in Long Beach the past several months, and were cleaning up, preparatory to return. A weed fire spread and caught the garage, which ignited the house. The Cypress fire department was called too late to save anything. The loss uncovered by insurance amounts to about $1200. W. McGregor, who sold his dairy herd a public auction last Friday, has purchased a retail dairy in Montebello and is moving to that place today. Ben Priddy and family of Witchita, Kansas, are visiting at the home of Mr. Priddy's brother, G. G. Priddy. Mr. and Mrs. George B. Miller are on their annual hunting trip in Arizona. They left last Thursday and were accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. S. C. Cherry of Santa Ana. They arrived in Prescott Saturday afternoon, where they will spend a couple of days with their daughter, Mrs. E. I. Monroe; then they will proceed to the higher mountains for three weeks, where they expect to bag the limit of wild turkey and deer. The Millers expect to be gone about six weeks. Mrs. J. Thompson, one of the oldest residents of the Cypress section, has leased her 10-acre farm and is moving to Santa Monica, where she will make her home with her daughter, Mildred. Mrs. C. L. Barnett, who has been ill at the Anaheim sanatorium for some time, is able to be at home again. She is recuperating nicely and will soon be able to attend to her customary duties if setback is not experienced. Mrs. W. J. Ronnie, who recently was injured in an automobile accident on Lincoln avenue, is slowly recovering. Ben Sconce has been very ill the past week, but is somewhat better now. Charles Luther, a large grain grower of Red Bluff, is visiting at the home booth took fourth prize. Garden Grove with her display, "All in a Nutshell," won first prize. The feature presented by Cypress was very attractive. The supervisors are taking the Cypress exhibit to the Southern California fair, held at Riverside. The allegory attracted considerable attention and was a very worthy effort. It gave the history of our county in seven epochs, and those who participated in it are to be congratulated on their successful work. The other entertainment features of the fair seemed to please the vast audience. It is only hoped that before another year a fair site can be found that will be acceptable to the entire county and be large enough to take care of a racetrack and the stock that is raised in Orange county. We understand from the standpoint of attendance and also financially the fair was a success. Santa Barbara Fund—Active operation will be taken in the immediate future concerning the fund of $3300 for Santa Barbara. The citizens committee, at its last meeting, thought that if there were no objections on the part of the citizenship of Anaheim, the trustees of our city could be asked to appropriate this sum out of the general fund. A number of the luncheon and social clubs have indorsed this resolution, but several have turned it down. Not being unanimous in adopting the resolution by the trustees, this method of raising the money will be dropped. The original plan will be followed. Chamber of Commerce—The new delegates to the Associated Chamber of Commerce, which meets every month, have been appointed by President Johnston. The delegates are H. N. White, A. E. Hargrove and Secretary Reid. Office—Miss Grace Burgess, who for nearly three years has been assistant secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, seen fit to resign and has moved to Florida. Miss Lucille Nenno is now assistant secretary, and Miss Jean Khilling has taken the place of Miss Nenno. Our President—President Johnston and family have gone east for several weeks. City Extension Committee—The city extension committee has been working in conjunction with the city trustees to see if it is possible to extend the boundaries of our city. At the present Mrs. C. L. Barnett, who has been in the Anaheim sanatorium for some time, is able to be at home again. She is recuperating nicely and will soon be able to attend to her customary duties if a setback is not experienced. Mrs. W. J. Rennie, who recently was injured in an automobile accident on Lincoln avenue, is slowly recovering. Ben Sconce has been very ill the past week, but is somewhat better now. Charles Luther, a large grain grower of Red Bluff, is visiting at the home of his brother, Steve Luther. Mery La Rue and W. C. Miller took in the world's championship wrestling match at Los Angeles Monday evening. The frame work on the J. C. Cawthon home is up and work is being rushed or an early completion. Mrs. Harold Blythe is helping out in the bookkeeping department of the Los Alamitos Sugar Company during the run. The Cypress Cubs were defeated by the Brea Merchants on the local grounds Sunday, 9 to 1. The Cypress first team won over the Van Dein Young team of Santa Ana, 1 to 1. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Ritter are spending the week at the Riverside county fair; they are in charge of the Cypress display which represented Cypress at the orange county fair and which was sent to the Riverside county fair to represent Orange county. The Cypress folk are wondering why their display was chosen to represent Orange county, when Garden Grove took first place in the local county fair. Lincoln Reeves of Huntington Beach was a visitor at his mother's home, Mrs. J. W. Fuquay, Monday afternoon. Mrs. H. La Rue spent Monday and Tuesday at the Beatty home in Willington. The organization of an athletic club is under way. A mat will be put down and boxing gloves purchased, and if the community responds to the movement, basketball and perhaps football teams will be organized.

Miss Lucille Nenno is now assistant secretary, and Miss Jean Khilling has taken the place of Miss Nenno. Our President—President Johnston and family have gone east for several weeks. City Extension Committee—The city extension committee has been working in conjunction with the city trustees to see if it is possible to extend the boundaries of our city. At the present time Anaheim covers about four square miles, the city of Fullerton has about 17 square miles, Santa Ana and Orange being much larger than our city. There is great need for Anaheim to extend its limits, and because of the water situation there are a number of those living adjacent to the city that would gladly welcome coming into the city. The city of Anaheim has plenty of water. It is a fact that the water level around Anaheim has been going down for several years. Wells have been deepened. This is expensive work. By the extension of the city limits those who are taken in will be greatly benefited. Whatever territory is added to the city will cost the city more than it will receive from it for three or four years, yet the trustees recognize that the boundary limits of Anaheim are not in keeping with a progressive city and should be extended.

N. White vice-president. Mr. Cohen is one of our youngest but most enthusiastic merchants and H. N. White is one of the hardest and most faithful workers in community service. With these officers success to the merchants' association is assured. Orange County Fair—The Orange County Fair has just been concluded. If you were not acquainted with the products of Orange county, all you had to do was to visit the fair and see what is produced. One of the outstanding features was the Orange county industrial and manufacturers' exhibit. Through the supervisors sufficient space was purchased in the industrial tent to allow all cities of Orange county to exhibit some of their manufactured articles. The different secretaries in the county took charge of this exhibit. Anaheim exhibitors were as follows: Young Sash and Door Company, A. Hoffman Shoe Manufacturer, McPride Glass Company, Anahelm Bottling Works, Euca-Lemo Soap Factory, Orange County Brick and Tile Company, Funk Brothers, manufacturers of pumps, and the California Zinc Pigments Company. The Anaheim booth, which was presented by the local farm bureau and the Chamber of Commerce, was very pleasing. The three bunches of grapes coming from the Anaheim district were beautiful and received considerable comment, while the water lilies coming from the city park were one of the outstanding features of the fair.
