Parent Teachers Add New Officers to Staff Elect Four New Vice-Presidents in County Organization Not less than 42 names appear on the 1927-28 roster of the executive board of the fourth (Orange county) district of the California Congress of Parents and Teachers, which was completed with the appointment of chairmen of various departments. Four new vice-presidents have been added to the executive staff, making their number seven in all. This, it was explained by Mrs. J. V. Kelsey, of Garden Grove, president, is in conformity with a recent ruling of the state board. Several new departments have been added to the regular activities of the organization, which now numbers more than 5000 paid up active members. American citizenship, juvenile protection, legislation, motion pictures, humane education, spiritual training, publicity and social hygiene are among the more important departments of the organization. Following is a complete list of officers and chairmen: President, Mrs. J. V. Kelsey, Garden Grove; first vice-president, Mrs. Burt Vorce, Seal Beach; second vice-president, Mrs. C. A. Marcy, Fullerton; chairman of organization; third vice-president, Mrs. G. N. Greer, Santa Ana; chairman of extension; fourth vice-president, Mrs. R. W. Marvin, Anaheim; chairman of public welfare; fifth vice-president, Mrs. William Griffith, Laguna Beach; chairman of education; sixth vice-president, Mrs. F. T. Preble, Tustin; chairman of home service; seventh vice-president, Mrs. J. Roy Williams, Katella; chairman of health. Recording secretary, Mrs. Charles Schwelinfest, Anaheim; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Floyd Benson, Anaheim; financial secretary, Mrs. S. W. Douglas, Fullerton; auditor, Mrs. S. W. Stanley, Tustin, and historian, Mrs. Harry Barnes, San Juan Capistrano. Chairman of departments: Founder's Day, Mrs. H. E. Backs, Anaheim; memiron are India and Germany. In India the wage scale is less than one-tenth that of the United States; in Germany about one-third. The principal item of cost in getting out the ore and converting it into pig iron is labor. The tariff commission found that the amount by which domestic delivered cost exceeds delivered cost from British India at Boston from the eastern district of the United States was $8.81 per ton; Buffalo district, $7.07 per ton; Alabama district, $6.29 per ton; western district, $7.66 per ton. The advantage enjoyed by British and German importations was about two dollars per ton less. It will be noted, therefore, that the 37½ cent increase per long ton in the tariff on pig iron is a most moderate compliance with that principle of equalizing labor costs at home and abroad to which few Americans openly voice opposition. The American who thinks he can secure cheapness by purchasing commodities mad low in cost by degrading the worker to the status of the East Indian or Chinese coolie would be fooled even in this should the American pig iron industry be so crippled by such competition that the European metal combination could dictate prices in our markets, as the No. of Bank 329 REPORT OF CONDITION The American Savings at Anaheim, California, as of the close of business on RESOURCES COMMERCIAL 1. & 2.

Our Pig Iron and Tariff Protection Recently the United States tariff commission granted an increase in tariff on pig iron from 75 cents to $1.125 per long ton. This was done under the provision of the act of congress creating the commission which authorizes it to increase the tariff on a given article of American production, when it can be shown that the cost of production, when it can be shown that the cost of production is greater in the United States than in foreign countries, and when American industry is suffering by reason of such unequal competition. This decision has been criticized chiefly by those opposed to the policy of portecting American industry, on the ground that the increase in tariff is unnecessary, and that it chiefly benefits the already profitable "steel trust," meaning the largest American producer of steel, the United States Steel Corporation, which is far from monopolization of steel production in the United States.

LEONARD EVA Notary Public in and for said County of Oran United States than in foreign countries, and when American industry is suffering by reason of such unequal competition. This decision has been criticized chiefly by those opposed to the policy of protecting American industry, on the ground that the increase in tariff is unnecessary, and that it chiefly benefits the already profitable "steel trust," meaning the largest American producer of steel, the United States Steel Corporation, which is far from monopolization of steel production in the United States. Those who care to read the extensive record of the case can learn that this action of the tariff commission was taken as the result of an exhaustive study of pig iron production costs at home and abroad, and that the increase in the tariff on this commodity was fully justified under the law, because of definite and growing injury to pig iron producers, especially near the Atlantic seaboard. This unfair foreign competition had closed a number of pig iron plants in Virginia, and if not slowed down, would have ultimately thrown a great many American workers out of employment. The theory that this action was in the interests of the so-called "steel trust" does not stand up. The "steel trust" is chiefly a producer of steel, and a consumer of pig iron. The consumption rather than the production of pig iron being its objective, it would be immediately helped rather than harmed if it could purchase abroad pig iron sold more cheaply than cost of production in the United States. In 1926 only 23.74 per cent of the pig iron produced in the United States was manufactured for sale; 76.26 per cent was produced for maker's use in further processes of iron and steel manufacture. Heavy importation of foreign pig iron would close these independent plants, but it would be an advantage to owners of integrated plants, like the United States Steel Corporation, since the ability to buy yabroad cheaper than production cost at home would be of financial advantage to steel makers. But the result would be the employment of foreign labor rather than American labor in this field of production. The chief competitors of the United States in the American market for pig County A. C. of C. Hears Road Talk Bill to Be Presented Giving State Aid to Counties The state aid plan for releasing county road funds now expended on roads carrying a high percentage of foreign travel to the other county roads, used primarily by county residents, is in the process of development for submission to the next session of legislation, according to Ben Blow, field secretary of the National Automobile Club, who addressed the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county at the monthly session in the Los Alamitos Chamber of Commerce hall Thursday night. With the passage of such a statute, according to Blow, Orange county would be benefitted with state aid toward the maintenance of the Santa Ana canyon road, as well as other highways through the county which at present are maintained by county funds which carry a percentage of foreign traffic as high as 90 per cent. That such a measure is vitally necessary to assist in putting California among the nation's leaders in road development was asserted by Blow. The speaker cited the instance of Missouri, a state generally believed to be buried in the mud, as far as highways are concerned. According to Blow, Missouri is 1000 per cent in advance of California in the matter of funds for road development. Regarding the possibility of a road fund bond election in Orange county, Blow stated that with the aid of the women's clubs in this county, the issue could be put over. He cited several instances in northern California where bond issues for new county roads were carried solely by the aid of the women's organizations. "Southern California up until 1915 built roads and profited by it from the tremendous influx of tourists," stated Blow. Northern California and eastern Southern California have profited states have watched road building in from the mistakes made in this region. In the business session, J. P. Greeley, president, appointed H. D. Riley, of Anaheim, to the planning committee chairmanship of the body to work in conjunction with a proposed county planning commission. Following the resignation of V. D. Johnson of Orange as chairman of the board, Comprehensive road building programs are now being carried out in the east and in the north, while Southern California has lagged," he said. "Everybody regards Orange county as the banner county of the state. This is true in northern California, as well as elsewhere," stated Blow. Several community boosters in attendance at the meeting drew the attention of the speaker to the fact that their communities were not represented with the latest paved highways on the maps which Blow passed out. Blow replied that Orange county was growing so fast that maps could not be printed often enough to show every new highway and city in the county. Others who made short addresses to the chamber along lines of highway development and other matters, such as county planning and the county fair progress, included H. A. Lake, William Schumacher, J. A. Armitage, H. D. Riley, Tom Pickerell, H. H. Hale, V. D. Johnson, Dr. F. W. Slabaugh, and Harry Welch. In the business session, J. P. Greeley, president, appointed H. D.
