ANAHEIM GAZETTE INSUED EVERY THURSDAY Meary Kuckel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSURPITION PER YEAR.....$1.50 SIX MONTHS.....$1.00 THREE MONTHS.....$ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice second-class matter ANAHEIM'S EXAMPLE Anaheim has entered upon a campaign for the planting of trees along the streets of that city. Definite steps were taken at a meeting attended by representatives of various civic organizations of the Mother Colony. It is proposed to make out a plan for the city streets so that planting may be uniform. Our best wishes are extended to Anaheim in this movement. In years gone by Santa Ana has heard a good deal of talk about the advisability of uniformity of tree planting. Two years ago, the park commission asked the board of trustees for an ordinance that would give the commission control over the planting, trimming and cutting of street trees. The ordinance has never been passed. Santa Ana, apparently, is as far away from adequate control of its streets as it ever was. Just why Santa Ana has a park commission is a question that the members of the park commission, we suspect, themselves would like to have answered. At least, at a meeting held in Santa Ana some time ago, the president of the commission said that so far as she could see the commission of five members had but one duty and that duty was to hire and fire one gardener. Our best wishes are extended to Anaheim in this matter of beautifying its streets not only because we are hopeful that Anaheim, always an enterprising city, will make Anaheim more beautiful and distinctive, but also because through success in this movement Santa Ana might be encouraged to go and do likewise.—Register. Buena Park Notes (By Mrs. J. P. ROBISON) Mr. James Reed Walls and Miss Verna Mitchell of Anaheim were married Tuesday at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. O. H. Mitchell. The young couple will live in Anaheim. An insane negro created quite an excitement here. Thursday forenoon when he threatened several people in the vicinity of Golden's filling station with a knife. Sergeant Green and Traffic Officer Rudy of Eulerton were called and after a desperate fight in which it was necessary for the officers to use a gun, he was overpowered and taken to the county hospital. It was afterwards found that he was Lawrence Tinney, of Watts. Mrs. Raymond Wilcox of Alhambra visited her parents, Mr. and Mrs. B. R. Kratzer last week. On Tuesday Mr. and Mrs. Kratzer and Mrs. Wilcox motored to Compton. The Missionary Society had an interesting meeting Thursday afternoon although sickness caused the absence of a number of members. Mrs. W. W. Hart had charge of the devotional exercises and the president, Mrs. Davis, of the program. Mrs. J. E. Wright read an article on "The Finn in Southern California," Mrs. Bacon, "The Macedonian Call," and Mrs. J. A. Finney, "Mission Work in Coal Camps." Mrs. Garrison Costar and Mrs. Caryl Snyder favored with a duet. The hostess, Mrs. G. S. Davis, served delicious refreshments. Miss Hulda Christensen of the Buena Mercantile Co. made a business trip to Los Angeles Thursday. Mrs. J. B. Robison visited her daughter, Mrs. T. R. Payton of Fullerton Wednesday. Mr. John Ryman and George Ryman of South Dakota arrived here Thursday to visit their brother, M. Ryman. Rev. W. W. Hart has been quite sick for nearly a week. As he was unable to preach Sunday, Mrs. Dora Glines, princess secured the loan from the Pomona library; picture History of California exhibition at the club. A picnic will be held in Park, Pasadena, next Saturday by the Albert Lea, M.Southern California, Briscoe coffee, cream and sugar club. A change in the contributors for Northern announced.

Thleving on the minimum, declare manager of the club's motorists will keep stantly the following: Lock on spare tires box. Leave an unfriendly seat. Never leave car for motor running.

Remove distributors part of the car so that place it before he can chine THE WORLD COURT The adoption of the protocol of the World Court by a decisive vote in the senate ends a controversy which has lasted now for some years. In view of the excitement, and the hours consumed in arguing the subject, it may seem a rash prediction, but there are sober people who say that the element of controversy created the high light and now that it is an accepted fact the whole subject will become one for sober, sincere, constructive discussion. Under the protocol as adopted, the United States agrees to assist in the election of the judges and to contribute in part to the cost of maintaining the court. But through reservation it is distinctly stipulated that the court cannot act on American cases, except those submitted by American authorities, and further that the United States may at any time withdraw its adherence to this Protocol. The American government, wholly apart from the World Court, will continue advancing its own distinctly American theory of peace through treaties of arbitration, of which a considerable number have already been made, and its system of treaties of commerce and amity with which it has always safeguarded the rights of its citizens in their relations with the subjects of foreign nations, all of which are subject to acceptance by our senate. Our joining is a worthy move for several reasons. First, it must be said we cannot very well continue to preach, as we have been doing, the need of unity and peace to the world and ignore the one and only instrument which European countries have erected for the accomplishment of this purpose. In addition it must be admitted we need membership in the court for our own protection. The time to protest against adverse action dangerous to American rights or equity, is at the moment the attack is made, not days after, and no way has yet been developed by which the United States is able to protect itself in such an emergency by merely peaking through the keyhole, or listening to the reports of unofficial observers. To safeguard America, our representatives must be inside sitting down, with a right to speak, not lurking outside a locked door. That is the whole story. ACTIVITY OF MOTOR COPS A total of 1442 arrests have been made by the state motor vehicle squad in Orange county during the last six months. Miss Hulda Christensen of the Buena Mercantile Co. made a business trip to Los Angeles Thursday. Mrs. J. B. Robison visited her daughter, Mrs. T. R. Payton of Fullerton Wednesday. Mr. John Ryman and George Ryman of South Dakota arrived here Thursday to visit their brother, M. Ryman. Rev. W. W. Hart has been quite sick for nearly a week. As he was unable to preach Sunday, Mrs. Dora Glines, principal of the grammar school, gave an interesting talk on the education of children in the home, at the morning service. Considering the rain there was a good attendance. In the evening Miss Lee, the evangelist, who has been holding meetings in the Calloway hall, had charge of the services. Miss Lee will continue to hold meetings this week in the store room next to Morlarity's feed store. On Tuesday evening Mr. and Mrs. Garrison Costar entertained a number of small classmates of their little daughter Betty. On Wednesday evening they entertained their son Garrison's classmates. Mr. and Mrs. I. G. McGee, Mr. and Mrs. Dorty and Mrs. Coffman attended a dance at the recreation hall of the Murphy lease, Friday night. John Andrews and family of San Diego visited his sister, Mrs. J. J. Boyle and family Tuesday. Mrs. S. W. Little has been quite sick. Her sister, Mrs. Wm.

ACTIVITY OF MOTOR COPS A total of 1442 arrests have been made by the state motor vehicle squad in Orange county during the last six months. During that period the squad has collected $15,941.55 in current and delinquent fees, while the expense for its maintenance, including salaries, has been less than $10,000. Such was the statement of Inspector Gilroy to the board of supervisors, when he dequeued the appointment of a clerk for the traffic department office. The request was granted, the supervisors recommending appointment of a clerk at a salary of $100 per month. Gilroy declared that the work of the squad in this county has grown to such proportions that a clerk's full time would be required. This, he said, would relieve, for highway duty, the officer now detailed to office work. The county has been divided into six districts, with each district assigned to an officer and the squad captain overseeing all of the districts, Gilroy said. REGARDING THE RAILWAYS If the country and its railroad business develop during the next 25 years as in the past quarter century, Interstate Commerce Commission estimates show that the year 1950 will see railroad investments doubled. This is indicated despite the development of motor traffic, air traffic, and a possible betterment of waterways. Regarding the encroachment of the automobiles upon the railroad's business, the Interstate Commerce Commission says, "If the people prefer to tax themselves to build great highways and to use commercial trucks and passenger vehicles in preference to the steam railroads they have a right to their decision but they must also assume the responsibilities with the attendant con- has secured the loan of 250 pictures from the Pomona library. This collection of pictures is known as the "Pictorial History of California," and will be on exhibition at the club rooms. A picnic will be held at Brookside Park, Passadena, next Sunday, February 7, by the Albert Lea, Minnesota Club of Southern California. Bring basket lunch, coffee, cream and sugar furnished by club. A change in the ownership of the Goodrum-Howard Company, Buick distributors for Northern Orange county, is announced. William Goodrum retires from the firm, George F. Howard having purchased his interest. Mr. Howard states that there will be no change in the personnel of the business at present. Mr. Goodrum will remain with the house having charge of the selling department. Automobile Notes With more than eight thousand cars stolen in Los Angeles city alone during 1925 and probably an equal number throughout other territory in Southern California, the theft bureau of the Automobile Club of Southern California suggests a daily dozen for motorists to keep in mind. Thieving can be reduced to the minimum, declares Walter Wood, manager of the club's theft bureau, if the motorists will keep in mind constantly the following suggestions: Lock on spare tires and padlock tool box. Leave an unfriendly dog in the back seat. Never leave car for an instant with motor running. Lock the car in several ways. The ignition switch lock is not sufficient. Never park your car in a place where thieves can work on it unobserved. Be sure your own motoring credentials are correct. Never buy a car unless the title to it is clear. Take an interest in the prosecution. Do not stop the case in event of restitution. Remove distributor arm or some other part of the car so that thief must replace it before he can operate the machine. Constant efforts have been put forth by motoring organizations to not only make these popular scenic spots attractive as possible but to keep them so, and it is urged that they be not defaced and defiled and rendered repellant by thoughtless motorists. The automobile industry ran into big figures in 1925 according to highlights in reports. Cars and trucks produced during the year numbered 4,325,000, and these had an aggregate wholesale value of $3,000,000,000. Approximately 20,000,000 motor vehicles are registered in the United States of which 2,500,000 are trucks. In addition to absorbing this production, motorists of the country paid Uncle Sam in excise taxes $126,552,000. The 20,000,000 motor cars in use in the country travel over 3,000,000 miles of highway. Along these roads are scattered 55,000 garages and a Stat's derive their living from the total of 3,200,000 persons in the United dustry. Southern California, with less than 2 per cent of the population of the United States has 4 per cent of the motor vehicles of the country. The thrilling adventures of Raymond Griffith as a rollicking, carefree confederate spy and a member of General Robert E. Lee's staff, ending with his effort to find his way out of his greatest quandary, that of deciding between the love of two beautiful girls are the high lights of the silk hatted comedian's newest starring picture, "Hands Up," which will be shown at the West Coast California theatre, Anaheim, Friday and Saturday. Wild riding scenes are filmed for this picture. Some of the riding is done by Griffith, but more of it is done by hundreds of the west's greatest horsemen. Cowboys and Indians furnish many of the thrills in "Hands Up." The hero mixes love with duty and in doing so brings on many complications which have been ably pictured by Clarence Badger who directed the screen version of the original story by Reginald Morris and adapted to the screen by Monte Brice and Lloyd Corrigan. Friday night the California will also present a special five-act vaudeville bill, featuring high class numbers direct from the leading stages of the coast. Saturday night the California will present, in addition to the regular features, Harold Bell Wright's old-time favorite picture, "When a Man's a Man," with John Bowers in the featured role. Other regular screen features for both nights are an Educational travelogue, "Men and Beasts of Borneo," and an Aesop Fable, "Lion and Monkey." Fresh from the master hand of D. W. Griffith, and featuring Carol Dempster, W. C. Fields, James Kirkwood and Harrison Ford, comes a stirring drama of contemporary world and jazz. That Royle ring it is because Pearl Schofield Balmer's wild zinging story by Particular new Griffith pits the West Coast helm, for that Sunday, due...

Remember that probably before the theft is reported the car will be outside the police jurisdiction. Trouble is ahead for motorists who camp over night, pick flowers, or pollute the waters of Palm, Andreas and Murray Canyons of the Palm Springs Indian Reservation, according to advises received by the Automobile Club. It is pointed out that the canyons named are still under the jurisdiction of the Indian Field Service. Department of the Interior, which is charged with the responsibility of caring for them. The auto club is calling the attention of its members and all motorists to these conditions and urging that they conform with government regulations and requirements. Notices have been posted in the canyons notifying tourists that the streams must not be polluted, that overnight camping is not allowed, that flowers should not be molested, and that the grounds must be kept clean. Despite these warnings careless motorists are persisting in picking the desert flowers. They have rolled rocks into the roads and there has been a promiscuous shooting of firearms, all of which is contrary to law.
