Local Brevities William Cruise, of Anaheim, was held to answer on a statutory charge at his preliminary hearing Tuesday in Justice K. E. Morrison's court. The charge involves a 14-year-old Anahelm' girl. Paul D. Tedrick was installed as commander of the Anahelm post of the American Legion at the first meeting of the new year held Tuesday night in Legion hall here. R. E. Smith, retiring commander of the post, was formally installed into the position of historian. Other officers installed at this time were J. Clark Chamberlain, first vice-president; Raphi Cox, second vice commander; Jack Hebson, adjutant; Otto Puckert, chaplain; Earl Crist, sergeant-at-arms; C. E. Griffith, finance officer. Members of the new executive committee also installed were Harry C. Wilhelm, Earl Fulfer, Roger Sherman and Sam Snodgrass. Installation ceremonies were conducted by Capt. Harry E. Insley, commander of Victory post, Los Angeles. In a divorce complaint on file in superior court Mrs. Madge G. Wells of Anaheim alleged that her husband, Lyndon A. Wells, subjected her to rough handling and also that he was overly friendly with a girl named Merle, who "hung around" the service station where he was employed. Wells boasted of his conquests to his wife, she said. Attorneys Ames and McFadden, Anaheim, represent her in the action. Mr. and Mrs. Wells were married in Los Angeles in 1922 and separated December 29, 1925. They have two children. Mrs. Wells seeks custody of them and demands $75 per month alimony. Burglaries looted the home of Les R. Wilson, prominent local building contractor, some time Sunday night, escaping with clothing and other articles valued at $250, police records reveal. This is the second such burglary occurring here within the past two weeks. Entrance was gained to the home by cutting through a railing and raising a window it is future as branches of the Santa Ana concern, it was stated by the manager. Ranney pointed out that the consolidation had been effected in the interest of economy, the two concerns in the northern part of the county having in the past duplicated territory covered by the Santa Ana company. A Salcinella, manager of the Anahelm dairy, will continue in that position under the consolidation, as will also O. N. Clark, for the Fullerton district. "Our delivery routes have been duplicating those of the Anahelm and Fullerton concerns and the principal effect of the merger will be to eliminate this duplication," Ranney said. Charging cruelty, Louise Markins, of Anaheim, filed suit in superior court for divorce from R. W. Markins, Anaheim butcher. They were married June 28, 1924 and separated December 27, 1925. Attorney A. E. Koepsel, of Orange, represents Mrs. Markins.

Riley, Studebaker distributor of Orange county is today taking delivery on seven carloads of Studebaker automobiles valued at near $100,000.

The shipment, of which many cars already are sold, consists of cars of all types manufactured by the Studebaker factory, and will be distributed to the Harry D. Riley Studebaker agencies at Anaheim, Orange, Huntington Beach and Santa Ana.

His crews of mechanics are under continual tutelage and in constant touch with the Studebaker factory to enable them to keep abreast of the latest methods of service. Cypress Note (By W. C.

His crews of mechanics are under continual tutelage and in constant touch with the Studebaker factory to enable them to keep abreast of the latest methods of servicing Studebakers placed in the county. "The success of the Riley organization is due to the policy of square dealing, interested service to customers, always striving to please the purchaser of a used or new Studebaker," said Mr. Riley, in discussing the huge shipment just received. "We believe in keeping in close contact with our car purchasers to enable them to get the best from their cars. Take our used cars for instance. When we state that a certain car is in first class condition and that it has been completely overhauled and reconditioned...we are telling the truth. And when a car is sold 'as is' the purchaser is informed of its actual condition and he is told what to expect. It is with this aim in view that we have made the many friends and customers in Orange county that the Harry D. Riley Studebaker agency enjoys. J. C.

Main Floor Sheriff's Office Has a Busy Year Nearly Six Hundred Arrests Made During 1925 With a record of 589 arrests made during 1925, Sheriff Sam Jernigan and his deputies are believed to have established a new high record for activities of the office.

Pointing out that he now has a larger force than he had at the opening of last year, Jernigan said that he already has developed plans for making 1926 a bigger year in the activities of his office. Of 589 arrests, 160 were on felony charges. There were 35 arrests made on high misdemeanor charges and 80 persons were arrested for violation of the national prohibition laws. A total of 314 persons were arrested on minor charges. That Sheriff Jernigan has laid special stress on enforcement of the prohibition laws of the county is revealed in the amount of money, credited to the sheriff's office, levied in fines against persons arrested by sherriff's officers. The amount is $2,035, the highest mark since the country adopted the dry laws. During the first half of the year, there were only two outside working on criminal cases and it was not until August, 1925, that the sheriff was allotted more men. Since that time, the deputies have worked night and day to achieve the record made by the office in 1925. It is also noticed that with $25,000 in the county cofferies as a result of fines levied in whisky cases, the arrests were accomplished without the hire of stool pigeons. The officers merely have followed clews given them by citizens, and not a cent of the taxpayers' money has gone to the hire of outside aid. During the year, the sheriff's office has answered a total number of 1426 calls from various parts of the county and 592 warrants for arrests have been executed by the office. During the year there were 17 automobiles reported stolen in the county and this number 10 were recovered by the sheriffs officers. Herman Zabel, chief of the identification bureau, reported that during 1925, 375 men and women have been fingerprinted and records kept of their cases.

Supervisors Appropriate $2000 for Their Entertainment Orange County will entertain visiting editors from all sections of the United States during one day of the National Editorial Association's convention in Los Angeles next June. This was decided Tuesday when the county board of supervisors authorized an appropriation of $2000 for the purpose, that amount being the estimated cost of acting host to a thousand editors and editors' wives for one day. The supervisors decided to place the named appropriation at the disposal of a committee of commercial secretaries under the direction of Dr. F. W. Slabaugh, county publicity director. This committee will arrange the entertainment program, which now (entitatively includes a breakfast for the visitors at San Juan Capistrano, where they will enter the county, a tour of all sections of the county, with a barbecue at noon in the county park. County officials regard the appropriation as an investment in nation-wide publicity that could not be purchased at any price from the newspapers represented at the convention but which will be voluntarily donated by the editors in their home-coming reports of the convention. The exact date of the editorial sojourn in Orange County has not yet been ascertained by the committee. The itinerary of the delegates while in Southern California is known to include a trip by special train to San Diego. It is planned to meet the special, on its return trip, at San Juan Capistrano and take the editorial party from the train there.

Main Floor— THE FRENCH PARADOX The crisis in France is financial and political, not economic. According to trustworthy accounts, times are not bad in France. There is no business depression. Everybody is working, and there is ready employment for immigrants, especially Italians. Industry is working at capacity. The trade balance is favorable—more goods sold abroad than bought abroad. Yet France can't balance her budget. England and Italy, with economic conditions less favorable, have balanced their budgets. Why cannot France too, balance her governmental income and outgo, and save a little to apply on foreign debts? Apparently because France continues largecurrent expenditures, particularly for military purposes, and is not yet willing to endure as heavy taxation as neighboring countries. All the sympathy in the world for France's heavy burdens cannot obscure these facts.
