Advocate Law to Curb Recklessness Ple From Incompetent Drivers Formulating Plan to Protect Peo- With both stupid and reckless driving taking an increasingly heavy toll in human lives and property damage, and with public opinion throughout the nation insistent upon the elimination of the careless, wanton few to whom can be attributed most of the blame for what is regarded as becoming a more and more intolerable situation, demand everywhere is growing for the enactment of full and effective driver's license laws as the most forceful means of bringing order out of chaos. First among the national motoring organizations to step forth and call for the universal application of this remedy is the American Motorists' association with a statement which quotes its president, J. Borton Weeks, as saying that "no sound progress can be made toward traffic safety and toward the scourging from our public highways of the criminally-minded motorists who are making them paths of death and disorder until every community has upon its statute books a driver's license law." "An adequate driver's license law, the kind that should be in force in every town and city in the country, first of all makes it obligatory for prospective motorists to take an examination upon the regulations and upon automobile operation," Mr. Weeks asserts. "That means that no person would be permitted to take a car out upon the streets and highways unless he or she had a working knowledge of the regulations which have been set up for the safe and expeditious movement of traffic and also could demonstrate to a duly constituted authority that he or she was fully capable of handling a motor vehicle with all the safe efficiency demanded in this day.

New Walnut Pest Finally Identified The black walnut fly and not the walnut husk maggot is the insect that has recently received considerable attention on account of its damage to late varieties of walnuts in the Pomona-Chino district, according to a recent letter received by H. M. Armitage, deputy horticultural commissioner of Los Angeles county, from Dr. J. M. Aldrich of the National Museum at Washington, D.C.. Although the damage, which consists of a blackening of the shell of the nut due to the development of the larvae in the husk, was first reported over two years ago, the identity of the insect involved was not determined definitely until this summer. This delay in identification was unavoidable, being caused by the presence of scavenger insects which made difficult the task of finding the insect of primary importance. Very soon after the harm caused by the pest was first reported, a marked similarity was noted between its effect reared by Mr. Armitage material gathered in infancy showed the insect to be nut fly, Rhagoletus Junio of the walnut husk man. The two species are elated, the former being tacking the English and y of walnut in Texas and the latter as workin ties of walnuts, include black and English in the East and Middle West. Early reports to these species involved was that maggot ecem to be ch fact that this species had to the attention of the greater degree because distribution and the greater amount of de- ture, including a bullet Stales Department of A.

R. suavis. The two species are very closely related, the former being recorded as attacking the English and a native variety of walnut in Texas and Arizona, and the latter as working several varieties of walnuts, including the native black and English in several states of the East and Middle West. Early reports to the effect that the species involved was the walnut husk maggot seem to be chargeable to the fact that this species has been brought to the attention of the public to a greater degree because of its wider distribution and the availability of a greater amount of descriptive literature, including a bulletin by the United States Department of Agriculture. Considerable interest is attached to the presence of this insect in California, as it seems to be the first (and it is hoped the last) member of the fruit fly family to be found in this state. Board May Have To Readvertise Possibility that the board of supervisors will readvertise for bids on a $125,000 highway paving project at Dana Point was speculated on Wednesday following the discovery, on opening bids Tuesday, that the lowest bidder for the work had not signed his bid. R. A. Watson, of Los Angeles, was low on this project with an estimate of $123,014.69. The matter was referred to District Attorney Z. B. West Jr., by the board for an opinion as to whether Watson's bid was disqualified. West said Wednesday that he has not yet returned his final opinion and that the matter has been continued to next Tuesday. Charles Breessler, of Wells and Bressler, a firm which entered a bid, contended Tuesday rather spiritfully that the Watson bid should be thrown out. The lowest bidder on a project calling for one and one-half miles of paving on the Coast highway at Dana Point was the Western Construction Buena Park News James Sewell, assistant pharmacist at the Buena Park Pharmacy, and Nina Morton of Artesia, were married last Monday at Santa Ana.

If not, be sure to get in touch with your chairman, Rev. Chas. E.Malmann, Judge Ames Denies Bail to Montgomery Man Who Killed Two Hunters Must Stay in Jail Presiding Judge Homer G. Ames of the superior court Tuesday morning in department No. 1 overruled a demurrer presented by Attorneys L. A. West and B. Z. McKinney against the indictment of J. W. Montgomery, gun club watchman of Westminster, charged with the double killing of Orlie R. Mahon and John D. Callicot. The attorneys for the defendant based their arguments on the ground that the indictment was insufficient and had not been drawn in proper form. Following the overruling o fthe demurrer Montgomery entered a plea of "not guilty" to the double murder charge placed against him, and the trial was set for December 19. A motion that the defendant be released on ball was denied by the judge. In asking ball for his client, Attorney West called attention to the fact that the evidence in the case supports the contention of justifiable homicide. He also cited the circumstances that Montgomery after the shooting voluntarily placed himself at the disposal of the authorities and did not make any attempt to escape or avoid responsibility. The plea for bail was hotly contested by Deputy District Attorney L. W. Blodget.

It was reported that the bit is biting away at 2000 feet deep. No trouble has been encountered and the crew is making hole rapidly. No report of indications, if any, was available. Since other oil fields of the Los Angeles basin usually bore into the oil sand at 4000 feet or deeper the drillers do not expect anything at this stage. The Texas Oil company is reputed to have 3000 acres under lease to the south and west of Anaheim. This is unexplored territory and the company has nothing more than surface indications and guesses to go on as encouragement, it is admitted by the men who were instrumental in making the location. COST OF ENFORCEMENT Unless Congress desires to embark in the police business, create a system of United States courts throughout the land and appropriate $300,000,000 for the work, prohibition enforcement must continue as at present, Prohibition Commissioner J. M. Doran told the house appropriations committee. Doran's testimony revealed he asked for $13,400,000 for prohibition and narcotic law enforcement for the fiscal year 1930, an increase of 660,000 as compared with the present year. Representative Hardy, Republican, Colorado, asked Doran. "Will not that be just barely scratching the surface of this enforcement business? Is it not like putting on a force of 100 policemen in the city of Washington?" "If Congress wanes to embark in the police business it will take $300,000,000 and a syste mof United States courts covering the land to enforce prohibition," Doran replied. The real secrets of how prohibition enforcement activities are allocated were made public when hearings on the treasury appropriation will were reported to the house. Prohibition Commissioner Doran re- Christmas Seals Good morning! Did you receive your Christmas Seals today? If not, be sure to get in touch with your chairman, Rev. Chas E. Malmann, 229 E. Adele, Anaheim, Phone 303-J. On the generous support of the Christmas Seal Sale in Anaheim depends the continuance of the Orange County Children's Camp in Santiago Canyon, now on a year-round schedule. Last summer 50 children won the game of health and put on an aggregate of 317 pounds of sound muscle weight with which to fight their common foe, tuberculosis. There are facilities for at least 50 youngsters if through the Christmas Seal Sale running expenses can be provided, and no helpless little child fighting for its life need be turned away, according to "Mother" Amelia Meagher, superintendent of the camp. There are nok 29 children at the Open Air School learning the game of health and their lessons at the same time. More could be taken care of if funds are available. Each Christmas Seal used on a letter or package helps a little child of Orange county regain health and strength, Mrs. Meagher points out. Tuberculosis cuts 2½ years from the national life expectancy, statistics show, while hospital care, it is estimated, runs up the etaggering bill of $449,000,-000, lost wages add $898,000,000. This needless toll of life and resources can be stopped! Through intensive health educational work, the Summer Health Camp, Year-round Open Air School, early diagnosis including X-ray examinations and year-round building up of the resistance to disease of children, beginning with the pre-natal care of the mother and on through adolescence of the child, tuberculosis can be stamped out. According to Dr. K. H. Sutherland, county health officer, there is no better investment than the Christmas Seal. It is health insurance for the present and future, states H. A. Lake, president of the Orange County Tuberculosis association. "The premium is small for every policy holder. The stamps have been sent through the mail. A dollar or two slipped into the return envelope completes the transaction. But do it now—like paying premiums on fire insurance, delay may be disasterous. On the returns made on the Christmas Seal depends the possible health program for the Orange County Tuberculosis association next year, the continuation and enlargement of the Open Air School in Santiago Canyon and the Orange County Children's Health Camp. Bromaugh Released Mechanical Toys Interesting for Young and Old 25c to $8.00 Athletic Goods Balls, Bats, Gloves, Et 25c to $7.50 Colorado, asked Doran, "Will not that be just barely scratching the surface of this enforcement business? Is it not like putting on a force of 100 policemen in the city of Washington?" "If Congress wanes to embark in the police business it will take $300,000,000 and a system of United States courts covering the land to enforce prohibition." Doran replied. The real secrets of how prohibition enforcement activities are allocated were made public when hearings on the treasury appropriation will were reported to the house. Prohibition Commissioner Doran revealed that his bureau now has 3551 employees and that the greatest number of agents are in New York. Hawaiian Islands Attract Tourists The ideal way to see the Hawaiian Islands is by automobile, asserts David Heenan, Jr., in an article, "The Land of Lei," appearing in the December issue of Touring Topics, official publication of the Automobile Club of Southern California. Mr. Heenan gives a brief history of the islands from the time of their discovery by Captain Cook in the eighteenth century, and completely describes them, their inhabitants, their industries, including the sugar and pineapple plantations, and presents a comprehensive survey of the marvelous touring attractions which have caused so many motorists to ship their cars to the "Crossroads of the Pacific." According to the author there are hundred of miles of paved and improved roads on the islands and innumerable points of scenic and historic interest for the visitor from the mainland. This favored American possession annually produces nearly all of the world's supply of pineapple and a large percentage of the sugar consumed by the United States, reports the writer. Mrs. Fannie Lon and Miss Margaret Higgins of Hollywood were the guests of Mrs. Helmsen the past week. Rombaugh Released From L. A. Bastile Lester Rombaugh, 22, of this city, is at liberty following his release from the jail ward of the Los Angeles County hospital. Rombaugh was taken to the jail ward of the hospital following an automobile accident near Hawaiian Gardens in which Mrs. Lea Willey Otte, 18, of Los Alamitos, was killed. Rombaugh was exonerated of blame for the girl's death following an investigation by the homicide department of the Los Angeles sheriff's office. The department explained that evidence failed to show that Rombaugh had been drinking or was drunk at the time of the accident. There were no witnesses to the crash. A coroner's jury last week found Mrs. Otte's death was accidental. Florida Citrus Problems Explained The annual meeting of the Northern Orange County Fruit Exchange will be addressed by Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg Thursday, December 6, at McFarlands' Cafe, Fullerton. His subject will be "Some Problems of the Florida Citrus Grower." He will show two reels of motion pictures depicting the Florida citrus industry and methods of combatting citrus pests there. The farm advisor has visited the citrus districts of Florida and has first-hand impressions of the industry in that state. Beach. Longer delay is not considered warranted.

Written statements may be handed to the undersigned at the hearing or mailed to him beforehand. C. P. GROSS, Major, Corps of Engineers, District Engineer. Growers Again Cut a Melon Payment on the third Valencia pool shipped through the Anaheim Orange and Lemon association was announced Friday, the payments totaling $168,-371.97 for 30,249 packed boxes. Valencia sales for the association were $850,000, exclusive of the off-bloom pool, which still remains to be paid. Off-bloom returns are expected to be given out next week. The net average rate per field box was $3.38 for boxes picked during the third pool, which was the last regular pool of Valencias. Announcement of the payment of the lemon pool will be made next week, according to G. W. Sandilands, manager of the association. Shipment of navels will be made as soon as the oranges pass the required test, it was said. Police officers here have been asked to aid in the search for Edwin Callison, 13-year-old son of Mrs. L. W. Caseberre, 708 East Sycamore street, who disappeared from his home the latter part of the week. When last seen the lad was wearing blue overalls, brown shoes and a light cap. He is five feet, three inches in height and weighs 104 pounds. It is thought that the boy may have started to go to his father, who lives in Texas, or to an aunt in Arizona. Despite preliminary difficulties, the proposed oil test for Stanton will get under way this month. It was declared Monday. The derrick on the lease was attached and steps taken to remove the equipment. Fred Steele, who has a lease on a large tract in the district, expects to enter into contract with another firm for a derrick. It is said. The difficulty was between the derrick contractor and a lumber firm, it is said. Steele expects to make a thorough test of the district and will go below 5000 feet if necessary, he says.

The rich mellow, nour WHEN IGNORANCE HELPED According to his own statement, the late Alexander Graham Bell was one of those fools who "rush in where angels fear to tread." And thereby he won undying fame. Speaking of his early experiments which led to the invention of the telephone, he said that if he had been a trained electrical engineer he never would have produced that now indispensable instrument, because the whole mechanism is so simple that a more experienced man would have said: "No use to try that; it is so obvious that if it would work somebody would have done it long ago." But through not knowing how simple it wash, Bell went ahead with his instrument and it did work. SHARI Beauty Cream A non-greasy cream for a face powder base.
