New Law Proposed For Relief of Farm Agricultural Committee Recommends Number of Changes A state-wide program of farm legislation, drafted to meet the needs of organizations representing more than 75,000 California agriculturists, was announced at the conclusion of conferences held by the agricultural legislative committee. The program will have practically unanimous backing in the legislature by all the principal farm organizations of the state, including the California Farm Bureau Federation, the State Grange and Farmers' Union, as representatives of all these groups were present. Outstanding legislation approved by the meeting and urged by the members included: 1. The farm bureau plan of reapportionment. 2. The California Fruit and Vegetable Standardization Act, making sweeping changes in standardization designed to protect the state's reputation in outside markets. 3. The California Fruit and Vegetable Certification Act. 4. An amendment to the motor vehicle act designed to give more privileges and protection to farmers who use the highways at night to drive cattle or sheep from one point to another. 5. An amendment to the motor vehicle act providing that trucks with extra wide bodies used at night on the highways be equipped with a light on the left side for the protection of passing vehicles. R. H. Taylor, secretary of the agricultural legislative committee, announced that another meeting would be held late in February, at which additions to this program will be made. A possible addition will be the commission merchants' bill. Because there are two such measures now before the legislature, the legislative committee took no action, but favored a conference at which all differences could be worked out. A resolution of appreciation to Gov. PAGE EIGHT them in good order. We recommend a boulevard stop at Garden Grove road and Orangethorpe, and at Whitaker and Grand avenues. The public buildings were found to be adequate for their purpose and in good condition. School buildings especially, with few exceptions, are of such high standard that we have only commendation for our educational institutions. We recommend that all gas fires in open grates be screened as a safety measure, and attention is called to the fire hazard from the location of the furnace in the Frances Willard junior high school, in Santa Ana. We have visited the different justices' offices and found them satisfactory. Having investigated the crowded conditions at the county hospital and noting the inadequate waiting room, the lack of room in several wards and especially the crowded condition of the building for tubercular patients, we wish to indorse the building program instituted by the board of supervisors at this time. The grand jury has investigated each incorporated city in the county and inspected their various accounting systems, with particular attention to their policies. With the exception of Anaheim and Brea, each city has a periodical audit of all books by expert accountants and they were found to be well kept. The city of Brea, not having had a recent audit, their books were examined and pronounced by our expert to be well kept and sufficient to their purposes. We would suggest that Anaheim have their books audited by expert accountants at least once a year, for their own information and that of the grand jury. We found their trustees apparently not only willing, but eager to correct any mistakes and follow the advice of the grand jury. We request that particular attention be paid to that part of the law relating to the expenditure of sums in excess of $300. It is recommended that the district attorney communicate with trustees of all incorporated cities with a view to bringing about better compliance. The pier at Newport Beach was without lights and life-saving equipment. We called the attention of the trustees to this matter and we understand that it has been favorably acted upon.

Because there are two such measures now before the legislature, the legislative committee took no action, but favored a conference at which all differences could be worked out.

Assurance of continued sympathy and co-operation was given by Governor Young to a special committee that called on him after the meeting. The committee was headed by C. C. Teague of Santa Paula, president of the legislative committee. With him were Ralph D. Merritt, general manager of the Sun-Maid Raisin Growers' Association of Fresno; C. D. Hamilton, president of the Almond Growers' Exchange of Fanning, and R. M. Hagen and R. H. Taylor, vice-president and secretary, respectively, of the committee.

Horn had as guests the first of the week her father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. George Thurman of Lodi,and grandmother, Mrs. Huckeby of Hemet,and on Wednesday evening her brothers,Ralph Thurman of Placentia,Clyde Thursman of Artesia and their families,and Mr. and Mrs.Harold Thurmanof Long Beach. Mrs.Lynn Wonderly of Hansen road entertained with a three-course lunchon Wednesday.Her guests were Eastern Star officers,bearing Mesdames Lella Isabel,May Faegan,Lura Schofield,Martha Shinn,Lydia Shear,Bethe Shear,Edith Mann,Ellen.Nelson.Geneva Greenawalt,Ruth Hunt.Wanita Snyder,Dorothy Kilgore Alberta Costar,Margaret Robeson Ilian Shaw,Priscila Watson,and Lucille Van Loenens.Special guests were Mrs.Wonderly's mother and sister-in-law from Long Beach,and Mrs.Kitty Kelley Smithof Fullerton.Five Hundred was played inthe afternoon.Mrs.Kitty Smithreceivedfirst prizeand Mrs.Edith Mannsecond. On WednesdayMr. and Mrs.H.Haggarty and their eastern guests,Mrs.Kerr Shearlarof ClevelandOhio,and Miss Ida Gumforyof Stoneboro.Pa.took an extensive automobile trip,goto-Redlands,Riverside,Hemet,and backbythe wayof Elsinore. A numberoftheyoungerchildrenherehavemeasles. William Van Loenen has purchasedtheJ.K.Doyle residence on Ninth street.Mr.Doyleandfamily have moved into their new stucco on Park street. The offices of the county superintendent of schools, treasurer, surveyor and commissioner, social service department and county auditor were visited, and it was found that the work is conducted in a thoroughly systematic and efficient manner. In looking over the school warrants we found that some of the schools in the county are evading the law relative to the expenditure of money for construction work in amounts exceeding $200, and we would suggest that the district attorney advise the trustees of all school districts of the necessity of complying with the law by advertising for bids for construction work which exceeds this amount. Also that the superintendent of schools and auditor be assured of the compliance with this law before signing such warrants. We suggest that a method be devised by which money expended in payment of labor be receipted for bythe recipient. With these changes in the offices of auditor and superintendent of schools, the work of these offices would be acceptably done. The work of the social service department is of such a nature that few persons know of its extent and influence, and of its moral and spiritual value to the lives that it touches, to say nothing of its monetary value. During the year, many hundreds of positions were filled through this office, and 1188 children, ranging in age from a few weeks to 6 years, were cared for in the well baby clinic. Many homes that might otherwise have been disrupted were harmonized, and in this and many other ways this office saves the county large sums of money. Neatness, efficiency, attention to detail and unfalling courtesy characterized the offices of clerk, recorder, assessor, district attorney, county library, coroner and public administrator, tax collector and sheriff. A very few minorclerical errors were noted by the auditors, and these were corrected by the officers in charge. We find much to commend in the conduct of these offices. We recommend a more modern system of indexing in the tax collector's office. The grand jury has made a careful investigation of all county rocks and bridges and with few exceptions fine On Wednesday, Mr. and Mrs. H. Haggarty and their eastern guests, Mrs. Kerr Sheplar of Cleveland, Ohio, and Miss Ida Gumory of Stoneboro, Pa., took an extensive automobile trip, going to Redlands, Riverside, Hennet, and back by the way of Elsinore. A number of the younger children here have measles. William Van Loenen has purchased the J. K. Doyle residence on Ninth street. Mr. Doyle and family have moved into their new stucco on Park street. Miss Verla Jackson of Pomona, a former teacher in our schools, visited friends here last week. Mrs. Ethel Conway has been quite ill at the home of her parents in Los Angeles. Mrs. Conway is bookkeeper in the S. W. Robison store. Miss Isabel Triblecock of Los Angeles spent several days with Mrs. E. W. Thurman. On Wednesday evening Mrs. Thurman entertained in her honor with a 6 o'clock dinner. Other guests were Stewart Andrews of La Mirada and Mr. and Mrs. C. Madson of Anaheim. Girls from here who are members of the Job's Daughters attended a school of instruction given by the grand guardian at Los Angeles, Saturday. In spite of the rain Thursday afternoon, there were about one hundred out to hear Miss Victoria Powell at the Woman's Club, when she gave her talk on the "Miracle." There were visitors from Anaheim, Cypress, Orange and Artesia. Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Childers attended the funeral of Mr. Childers' father, Jess Childers of Riverside, who died Tuesday. The funeral was Thursday. Mrs. Mary Feagan and Mrs. James Watson attended the Ami Tal at Fullerton Wednesday night. A number of people from here attended the "Night in Dreamland" at the Chapman theater, Fullerton, Thursday evening.

Wolf of Los Angeles. Mr. and Mrs. Stroud and daughters of Pasadena spent the week-end with Mr. and Mrs. Claud Allin. C. W. Girvin of Long Beach was herd Saturday night. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Miser and children of Stanton visited her mother, Mrs. Nellie Benson, Sunday. The Cotton Pickers' Quartette will church Saturday night. This quartette comes from a negro school at Piney Ridge, La. Miss Ethel McNell of the Monrovia sanitarium spent the week-end with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. George McNell. Mrs. J. F. Wagg has been on the sick list. Mr. and Mrs. M. H. Candee were guests Sunday of Mr. Candee's parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. D. Candee of Brea. Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Murch spent the week-end at Oceanside. Messrs. A. E. McFarland and James M. Evans of Los Angeles are guests at the Buena Park Inn. These gentlemen represent the Fire Insurance Underwriters of the Pacific and are investigating our fire department and our water system, so as to make a corrected rate for fire insurance. J. K. Doyle has sold his home on Ninth street to William Van Loenen of La Habra. Mr. Doyle and family moved Monday into their new stucco house on Park avenue. The Braley house on Ninth street is completed, ready for occupancy. Callers at the L. E. Berkey home Sunday were Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Huskins of Zelizah, Dr. and Mrs. Lane of Los Angeles and Mr. and Mrs. H. Hammond of Fullerton. Mr. Berkey, who had a stroke of paralysis several weeks ago is some improved. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Bastady and daughter, Barbara, and Mrs. W. P. Strain and son, Frank, were Sunday dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Newman of Fullerton. We don't believe that the "revolt of youth" which the ministers talk so much about is really serious until the girls learn to chew tobacco. Speaking of Proverbs —a fitting proverb of the business world today would be: "An immediate answer turns aside a multitude of business complications." Modern business depends largely upon speed, accuracy, quick decisions, immediate information and close contact with customers. California Ahead Of Massachusetts California has advanced from seventh to sixth place among the states in the amount of individual and corporation income taxes paid to the federal government. This situation was shown through publication by the bureau of internal revenue of figures covering income tax collections for the calendar year of 1926. For the calendar year just closed the collections aggregated $2,172,127,321,43 compared with $1,825,704,125,53 for the calendar year of 1925. For 1926 the total tax collected in California was $108,090,050,06, an increase in the total individual and corporation tax of $11,013,036,79, but a decrease in the $1,761,476,68.

Savings to the individual taxpayer were made possible through the reduction in personal taxes approved by congress last year. California displaced Massachusetts as the sixth state in the amount of income taxes paid. Of the 1926 collections, $1,256,793.-285.95 was from corporations and $915.-334,035.48 from individuals. Of the 1925 collections, $956,208,218.04 was from corporations and $869,435,917.89 was from individuals.
