Committee Meets To Discuss River Formulating Plans for Control of Flood Waters A meeting of a special committee of six, representing the Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee and the Water Conservation Association, was held at the office of the Riverside Water Company, Riverside, Saturday, June 2, 1928. There were present: H. H. Hale, H. C. Head, Orange county; J. W. Catick, J. J. Prendergast, San Bernardino county, and R. D. Skelley and Francis Cuttle, Riverside county. This committee met to consider plans of organization to bring about complete flood control and water conservation of the Santa Ana river and its tributaries. The present status of conservation matters and problems to be solved were agreed upon as follows: 1. The Water Conservation Association owns and controls approximately 3000 acres of land on the debris cone of the Santa Ana river, on which it has built works for the conservation of water, having a capacity of approximately 20,000 miners inches, continuous flow; approximate cost to September 30, 1927, $145,000. 2. The enactment of a law (chapter 332 of stat. 1919) authorizing the formation of a conservancy district in one or more counties. Amended in 1927, providing for a majority instead of a two-thirds vote for the formation of the district and for the issuance of bonds. Amendment providing also that no county can be forced into such district excepting by voluntary act of board of supervisors of such county. 3. (a) Water filing by the Water Conservation Association on 15,000 miners inches of water, dated October 6, 1911. Water filling on 15,000 inches of water, dated October 6, 1911. Both filings were perfected in accordance with law prior to the formation of the State Water Commission or Division of Water Rights. (b) Permit issued by the Division of Valencia Orange Shipments Lighter During Past Week With the citrus market easing slightly, due to supplies accumulating over the holiday, lighter shipments of Valencias were sent out during the past week from northern Orange county. The market, however, though still good as ordinary years, may go lower next week as deciduous fruits and berries come on the market in increasing quantity. Due to the unusually light crop, many growers have decided to hold their fruit, and small shipments are anticipated within the next few weeks. During the past week approximately 120 cars of Valencias were shipped from packing houses in this district. Twenty-six cars of lemons were sent out. The Northern Orange County Citrus Exchange reported shipment of 95 cars through houses affiliated with that organization. The Eadington Fruit Company shipped five cars of oranges, the Sierra Madre Fruit Company two cars of Valencias and one of lemons, and the American Fruit Growers sent out one car of oranges. Rules Issued for Guidance of Driver State Division Want's Mountain Climbing Made Safe Make mountain driving safe! With this admonition to motorists about to leave for vacation trips in the mountains, the Division of Motor Vehicles issued a set of rules designed to instruct drivers on the grades in methods of avoiding accidents. The division cautions persons going into the mountains to have an inspec-tion all the vital parts of the County Bankers Hold Agricultural Tour "Know Orange County Agriculture" is the slogan for the bankers next week, according to Nels Edwards, Orange president of the Orange County Bankers' Association. An agricultural tour will be made on June 14 by the county financiers, under the direction of the Agricultural Extension Service, represented in this county by the farm advisor's office. The caravan will leave the court house at 9 o'clock and proceed to Tustin, Irvine and way points to note the walnut, citrus and bean industries. They will then go on State Division Wants Mountain Climbing Made Safe Make mountain driving safe! With this admonition to motorists about to leave for vacation trips in the mountains, the Division of Motor Vehicles issued a set of rules designed to instruct drivers on the grades in methods of avoiding accidents. The division cautions persons going into the mountains to have an inspection made of all the vital parts of the car, such as brakes and the steering gear before starting. It advises that the emergency or parking brake should be also inspected, as this is frequently needed on the grades. Although fortunately, most of the main mountain roads are wide enough to permit two cars to pass, there are still many side roads where the adventurous may want to go that permit only one-way traffic. In such cases the division believes that while there is no law governing the subject, the old rule that the driver going upgrade has the right-of-way should apply, all other things being equal. This is largely a matter of courtesy to be worked out between the drivers," the division's instructions said. "It would, of course, be obviously ridiculous to expect the driver coming down the grade to back up a half mile to permit the car going upgrade to pass when the car going upgrade could yield right of way by going backwards few feet. In either case, the driver giving the right-of-way should be permitted to use the inside of the grade to park his car while the other is passing if there is a risk involved in using the outside of the grade." Other hints by the division for mountain drivers follow: Shift your gears at the bottom of the grade before starting up if possible. Take no chances on the down grade if you don't know the road. Shift your gears to first or second speed and let compression hold you back. Try practice of keeping the car in high and using the brakes on the down grade should be discouraged. If the brakes give way, the motorist is without protection. In parking your car on the upgrade, leave the gears engaged in low speed after you have turned off your engine. If parking on the down grade, leave it in reverse. Some drivers carry a piece of wood or a rock large enough to block the wheels on a steep grade. Keep well to the right and sound your horn on the turns. Be courteous. If you see a fellow motorist in trouble, stop and help him. Check the water frequently in your radiator when driving in the mountains. Have the crankcase full of good fresh oil before you start. Don't throw your car into neutral and coast on the grades. It is not only extremely dangerous, but unlawful. "Know Orange County Agriculture" is the slogan for the bankers next week, according to Nels Edwards, Orange, president of the Orange County Bankers' Association. An agricultural tour will be made on June 14 by the county financiers, under the direction of the Agricultural Extension Service, represented in this county by the farm advisor's office. The caravan will leave the court house at 9 o'clock and proceed to Tustin, Irvine and way points to note the walnut, citrus and bean industries. They will then go on through the citrus belt of Orange, Anaheim, and Fullerton. A real farmers' lunch will be served for the bankers at the Hacienda Country Club, which is nestled in one of the picturesque valleys among the La Habra hills. During the luncheon period the bankers will hear talks by the farm advisor's staff on the various agricultural industries of the county. John Osterman, president of the farm bureau, will outline the bureau's activities. Visiting and local bankers will also speak. The tour will continue during the afternoon through the La Habra hills to note the recent development of subtropical plantings in that section. The day's program will be in charge of the agricultural committee of the association, including Nels Edwards, Orange; K. V. Wolff, Olive; Horace Benjamin, Anaheim; Frank Wes, Santa Ana, and J. H. Walker, La Habra. WEST VIRGINIA PICNIC The West Virginians all Southern California are called to meet in Sycamore Grove park, Los Angeles, all day, Saturday, June 16, for their annual summer picnic rally. The county registers will be open all day, basket dinners eaten at noon, hot coffee and silk souvenir badges provided. Every West Virginian is invited to come and sing of the "West Virginia Hills" and meet the old neighbors. The program of song and oratory opens about 2 o'clock. Mrs. II S. Falconer, the new president, will welcome every one. The great register of the West Virginians may be seen at the office of the Federation of State Societies, in the hotel Rosslyn, Fifth and Main streets, Los Angeles. Will Break Record At Summer School Plans are being completed at the University of Southern California to care for a record attendance at the annual summer session, dates of which are announced by President R. R. von KleinSmid as follows: Eight Weeks' Session—June 18 to August 11. Six Weeks' Session—July 2 to August 11. Post-Summer Session—August 13 to September 4. With registrations coming in at a rapid pace from college students teachers and school officials, as well as from those desiring summer study for personal and professional improvement, indications are that last year's enrollment record of 4974 in the Trojan summer session will be surpassed. Applications for registration have been received from every section of the country. Fifty-six visiting professors from leading universities and colleges throughout the country will augment the regular summer teaching staff of the University of Southern California and courses in practically every phase of university work will be conducted. OUR NEW ARRIVALS Of the 229,069 immigrants admitted from July to March last, the Mexican race contributed 42,213 and the German 39,829. The Irish were third in the list with 27,423, followed closely by the English with 26,685, while the Scotch numbered 17,965. French '14,169, Scar-dinavian 13,634, Italian 13,551, and Hebrew 8878. These nine races comprised 88.9 per What Science Will Develop in Future Marvelous New Wonders Promised Within Twenty Years Among the marvels of scientific progress promised by experts in the present generation are a passenger airplane making the trip from New York to Paris and vice versa for $150; wireless communications with absolute secrecy; long distance vision which will allow a general to see with his own eyes the actual disposition of opposing forces hundreds of miles away; perfection of the talking film; a trip around the world in an airplane in four days. Pierre Chanlaine, in a book entitled; "The Horizons of Science," repeats conversions he has had with leaders of science research in many branches. Auguste Rateau, member of the French Institute, told him that it will be possible within a few years for an airplane to fly at a height of 12,000 meters at 350 miles an hour. By means of a turbine compressor which M. Rateau has invented, the power of a motor at that height is doubled. The only problem to be solved is that of an air-tight cabin with artificial air for the pilots and passengers. Louis Berguet, the noted aviator and airplane builder, foresees regular communication between France and the most distant countries with machines capable of making a non-stop jump of at least 2500 miles. The ideal long-distance airplane, he said, would carry 12 or 14 passengers with a total weight of 55 tons. The motors would develop 5000 horsepower and the machines would be amphibian, landing on the earth or in water with equal facility. The passenger ceiling would be placed in the wings. He talked also of bigger airplanes carrying two passengers with five tons of fuel, built for the Paris-New York airport, with a stop at St. Joan's New Amsterdam or Las Azuras. The latter station would be 425 miles and the price of $199 is based on calculations making the cost 25 cents per ton. Health of Employees Important Factor Vital to Industry Is Opinion of F. M. Brininstool One of the most important factors in the development of American industry to its present supreme position in the world has been the recognition of the dollar value of the health of employees by capital, according to F. M. Brininstool, California industrialist and president of the Brininstool Paint Company, Los Angeles. The result has been a practical revolution in conditions of employment in recent years, especially in regard to type of buildings, comfort conveniences and interior finish, he stated yesterday. Because of its comparative newness, no action displays this modern note more consistently than does Southern California, a fact which has had much to do with its rapid rise to industrial leadership on the Pacific coast, he claimed. Among the many agents which have contributed to this condition none has played a more important part than paint, the executive declared. As substitution for the assertion, Brininstool referred to the tremendous increase in sales of Barrel Sunlight, the national product for which his company is Southern California representative. "Very few of the leading factories here, where light-reflecting walls clean-liness and an impervious wall coating are essential, now use anything else," he stated. "A demonstration of the working efficiency of adequate light areas combined with a super-reflecting wall surface is contained in the famous Slauson avenue plant, Los Angeles, of California Dairies, Inc., which is finished throughout with lustrous Barreled Sunlight. This is the plant referred to frequently as a model in industrial efficiency on the Pacific coast for both the workers and the products handled, which in this case must be assured of absolute, sterile cleanliness." NOT EXPECTED TO THINK Dr. Delton Thomas Howard, professor of psychology and director of personnel at Northwestern university, declares that under our present educational system it is a waste of time and energy to think. He contends that the American undergraduate is taught to accept solutions rather than make them. The student's business is to learn, rather than to think. Dr. Howard is quite right; the average student is not asked to do good, competent, hard-thinking. Those who do think do it under their own steam. Consequently most under-graduates are content to conform and obey. They mouth their lessons like Moslems in their schools, understanding very little. Creative work is sadly lacking in the curriculum of the average student and this is what he most needs. Do Favorite Son societies ever have reunions in the years following the national conventions? There is one thing to be said in favor of national conventions. They always force congress to adjourn early. Mother! Clean Child's Bowels California Fig Syrup" Mother!

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA Anaheim, Calif., June 7, 1928 Union Pacific Opens Lodge in Canyon Great Architectural Feat Accomplished by Railroad The opening this month of the new Union Pacific Grand Canyon Lodge, on the north rim of the Grand Canyon in Arizona, marks another feat in architecture. Rising from the brink of the chasm and supported by buttresses that are a continuation of the natural stone pillars eroded from the face of the cliff, the new lodge is one of splendor and achievement. It combines the luxuries and comforts of the most modern hostelry with the many desires, romances, thrills and fascinations of the wilderness set against a background of the famous Grand Canyon which cannot be surpassed for its beauty and grandeur. The central lodge is 250 feet in length and 225 feet wide. There are also sixty-six comfortable double guest lodges situated in the forest near the central lodge and very similar in construction. The building is constructed of native sandstone and rough-sawn yellow pine timbers from the Kalab forest, harmonizing with the surroundings. Water is pumped from 4200 feet below by a power hydro-electric plant—another engineering accomplishment. Three huge view windows on the canyon side open upon a terrace overhanging the gorge. An observation tower surmounts the whole structure, and in this place the instruments for the viewing of the grandeur of the Grand Canyon are kept. During the current season the Union Pacific is providing for a series of personally-conducted, all-inclusive expense tours to the "land of fanning canyons," of which the Grand Canyon is a part. The first of these leaves Los Angeles on June 16. Trailing on the New York Stock Exchange has been reduced to four hours a day, but that is still long enough to give us time to invest most of our spare money. It's about as hard to understand a news dispatch about the war in China as it is one of those simple books on the way to become a good bridge player. NOTICE TO CREDITORS Estate of John A.
