Determined Fight To Save Beaches
Endeavoring to Preserve Recreation Grounds For the People
A new attempt will be made by those favoring the Save-the-Beaches bill, it is expected. The measure lacked only one vote of the necessary two-thirds required in the test vote on April 8. The assembly voted 40 yes and 28 no on the motion to bring the bill out of committee where it had been tabled. Forty-one votes are necessary.
Crowell D. Eddy, assemblyman from San Diego county introduced the bill, after years of successful application of a similar requirement as a local ordinance in San Diego county.
Mr. Eddy summarizes the purpose and provisions of his bill as follows:
"The purpose of Assembly Bill No. 28, which has become known as 'Save the Beaches' bill, is to make the beaches of California accessible to all the people instead of having them pre-empted by exclusive beach clubs and real estate speculators for private gain.
"The bill provides that if a subdivider, having land along the ocean or any arm thereof, does not dedicate upon his map when filing it a passageway, as near as practical along the mean high-tide line, then the board of supervisors, or other legislative body, shall start proceedings of condemnation for the possession of such passageway.
"Whether this passageway is obtained by dedication, gift or condemnation, the nature and width of it is at the discretion of the legislative body.
"This may be but a promenade, or where it will best serve the interests of the public, it may be a highway. This matter is entirely at the discretion of the legislative body.
"All of the land lying between this passageway and the ocean is to remain as public domain for park and playground purpose, for life-saving purposes and for the possible moving of troops in times of war.
"The bill exempts all industrial frontage from its provisions, and further provides that any frontage to which the legislative body does not deem it advisable to have a passageway opened may be exempted."

"The bill exempts all industrial frontage from its provisions, and further provides that any frontage to which the legislative body does not deem it advisable to have a passageway opened may be exempted.
"This provides that where beach clubs that would be formed or where other interests arise that would best serve the interests of the public, they may not be controlled by an arbitrary law.
"The need for such legislation as this is shown by the fact that in Los Angeles county, with an approximate beach line of 39 miles, less than six miles is now accessible to the public. The rest of this magnificent beach is being held by real estate concerns for increase in value, when they will bring fabulous profits.
"Within the last four years the city of Los Angeles has spent a little less than $2,000,000 buying back small strips of beach upon which the people may play, while a great percentage of beach frontage, nearly its entire length, is posted with 'Off' sign.
"San Diego county beaches were rapidly going the same way until the board of supervisors passed an ordinance which serves the same purpose, though more drastic in its operation, than the demands of this bill.
"This bill was drawn by the attorney-general and has the full support and endorsement of the governor and members of the State Park Commission. At the last session of the legislature the bill was opposed by several very large land owners, holding extensive ocean frontage; but, in spite of this opposition it passed the assembly and lost in the senate by only one vote.
"At this session the same interests are determined to accomplish its defeat."
Water Washing for Control of Mealybug
There has been considerable speculation as to the practicability of controlling mealybug infestations on citrus by washing the trees with a large volume of water under comparatively low pressure. A score or more of individuals had tried this system in Orange county prior to the present season. Some of these growers were apparently well pleased with the results, while others were dubious as to the economy as well as efficiency of the method.
As a result of an investigation made by the California Fruit Growers' Exchange and the University of California, The university began several check plots to determine the efficiency of water washing and to make other observations in that connection. Mr. A. M. Boyce, who has been placed in

As a result of an investigation made by the California Fruit Growers' Exchange and the University of California, The university began several check plots to determine the efficiency of water washing and to make other observations in that connection. Mr. A. M. Boyce, who has been placed in charge of this work for the university, has worked out some very unique methods of making observations and recording data and has already compiled a large amount of information on the subject.
At a recent Farm Bureau meeting in Anaheim, Mr. Boyce gave a progress report in which he brought out the following:
Low pressure with high volume is more efficient than high pressure spraying for the removal of mealybugs. The operation can be very inefficient or highly efficient, depending on the care of the workman and the length of time spent on the individual tree. High pressure at the nozzle tends to increase the number of fruits cut off and clusters split. The washing was very effective in removing both young and adult spider, but had practically no effect on the eggs. A large number of the orange worms, Tortrix citrana and Holocera icaryaeella were dislodged. The cost of the operation for a full grown tree using 1,000 gallons of water per tree was approximately 50 cents. The advisability of applying this quantity of water to certain soils during the spring season is questioned.
In comment on the big day last week when over 8,000,000 shares of stock were sold in one day on the New York Exchange, the New York Times recalls the fact that on March 16, 1830, just thirty-one shares were disposed of during the day, thus once more proving that we are a growing nation.
"Consequently the state executive committee of the association started to plan ways and means of placing such a proposition on the ballot at the next general election and allow the public to take a hand in the situation.
Another possibility, as revealed at this meeting, is the placing in this association of a clause calling for receipted bills to be filed for all joint services in settling an estate before that estate can be declared legally closed."
Further details of the proposed initiative measure will be worked out in a committee of the publishers' association.
Christian Science Church
"Doctrine of Atonement" is the subject of the lesson-sermon Sunday in all Christian Science churches, branch-of the Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass.
Paul's words to the Ephesians, "Walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour," constitute the Golden Texxt.
Among the Scriptural verses of the lesson-sermon, cited in the Christian Science quarterly, are the following words from I John: "In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten son into the world, that we might live through him... And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the son to be the Saviour of the world."
A correlative passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and health with Key to the Scriptures," presents these words of Mrs. Eddy: "Jesus of Nazareth taught and demonstrated man's oneness with the Father, and for this we owe him endless homage. His mission was both individual and collective. He did life's work aright not only in justice to himself, but in mercy to mortals—to show them how to do theirs, but not to do it for them nor to relieve them of a single responsibility."
"New Customer"
Tire Sale in Effect
Semi-Annual Feature By Western Auto Supply Co.
A "New Customer" tire sale, a semiannual feature at the Western Auto Supply Company, is now in effect at all Western Auto stores according to information from V. F. Cruzen, local manager of the company.
In making this announcement, Mr. Cruzen stated that the present prices are the lowest in the history of the company and offer the greatest tire values, dollar for dollar, of any tire ever sold by the Western Auto stores. "This sale is being conducted to add thousands of new tire customers to the long list of satisfied users of Western Glant and Wear-well tires," explained Mr. Cruzen.
"This sale should be welcome news to car owners especially at this time of the year when they are thinking of fishing and vacation trips and are outfitting their cars accordingly."
"Last year more than half a million Western Glant and Wear-well tires were sold by the Western Auto stores. These same popular makes of tires are offered in this timely sale. They are new, fresh stock and backed by our guarantee of absolute satisfaction for the life of the tire by our 'Customer is Always Right' policy.
"The fact that the Western Auto Supply company, through its more than 150 'Service Depots,' can offer a distinct service to automobile owners of the west, is one of the chief reasons for the popularity of Western Glant and Wear-well tires. We believe that our company offers a service that no other company in the west can duplicate, and a service that should mean a great deal to every car owner.
"When the motorist equips his car with Western Glant or Wear-well tires, he can start out on his vacation trip free from all tire worries and ready to fully enjoy his travels with the guarantee and service of the world's largest auto concern to back his confidence."
Right now, at the beginning of vacation season, we advise all auto owners to check their tires and replace all doubtful ones with new ones. By turn-
Next Week You Must Eat Raisins
Have you had your iron today?
That is the question we will be asked every day for a week—National Kaisin Week—April 22 to 27.
It is surprising how many different delicious dishes can be made from raisins. John Halterman, chef caterer of the Union Pacific's Los Angeles Limited, knows more different dishes than there are words in a crossword puzzle. For the past several days he has been conducting cooking classes as a hobby, showing group of Fanchon and Marce girls how to make some of his specialties.
During the week every one of these specialties will be featured on all the diners operated by the Union Pacific. It is estimated by B. L. Reynolds, manager of Union Pacific dining car and hotel department, that more than a ton of raisins will be consumed during the week alone on the trains he has in his charge.
Housewives, restaurants, cafes and merchants are all co-operating with the California Kaisin Growers' Association in making the week a success.
Woman Convicted On Booze Charge
Blanche Addington, Wintersburg, will be sentenced at 9:30 a.m., Friday, as a result of her conviction on a charge of selling liquor, returned by a jury in Superior Judge Ed J. Marks' court.
A special venue of 15 jurymen and women was drafted in order to fill the Wear-well tires. We believe that our company offers a service that no other company in the west can duplicate, and a service that should mean a great deal to every car owner.
"When the motorist equips his car with Western Giant or Wear-well tires, he can start out on his vacation trip free from all tire worries and ready to fully enjoy his travels with the guarantee and service of the world's largest auto concern to back his confidence.
"Right now, at the beginning of vacation season, we advise all auto owners to check their tires and replace all doubtful ones with new ones. By turning them in at this time, additional economies may be realized, as Western Auto stores accept used tires as part paymen ton new tires."
Willard Beckley Enters New York
Willard C. Beckley, who entered the work of the horticultural office in the winter of 1926, and who since last July has been actively in charge of the inspectory, has left this department to enter a new field with Dr. D. D. Waynick of the association laboratory at Anaheim.
The new work will consist of an addition to the soils service of the laboratory in the nature of recommendations for pest control, particularly red spider and aphids. Mr. Beckley will have charge of this branch of the work.
The horticultural office regrets very much to lose the services of Mr. Beckley, but feels fortunate that in selecting a new line of endeavor, Mr. Beckley will remain in Orange county and that Dr. Waynick has selected a man so well qualified for pest control work.

jury box for the trial, in which Deputy District Attorney Sam L. Collins and S. B. Kautman appeared for the prosecution.
The regular panel was exhausted when a prejudice against testimony of paid investigators was discovered in prospective jurors. A number of men and women stated that they would not be able to give evidence of the investigators as much weight as that from other witnesses, and were excused for cause by the court.
If husbands spent their days at home, all homes would have Extension Telephones!
It would be a good thing for husbands to stay home and do the housework for a week—just to see how many steps the woman of the home must take!
They would soon call the business office of the telephone company and say "Come and install extension telephones".
They would do this even before they found that extensions cost but a few cents a day.
Yet—that's all they cost.

for Incubating and
Brooding Chicks...
ELECTRIC HEAT is the most convenient, safe, clean
and practical to use for incubating and brooding chicks.
With electricity there is no fuel to be hauled, no ashes to be
dumped...no muss or fuss whatever. Just plug into a convenience outlet and your fuel worries are over.
Electric incubators and brooders are automatically controlled,
so each egg or chick receives the proper amount of heat,—healthy heat and just enough to assure sturdy, quick development.
Electric incubators and brooders are not costly to operate. Special low rates for electricity apply to these uses. Ask
the Edison representative in our local office to tell you about
them.
