Orange county will not tamely submit to acquisition by Long Beach of water bearing lands within its territory for the purpose of furnishing domestic water to that city. Some weeks ago it became known that the beach city was negotiating for lands on the ocean frontage in Orange county which are known to be water bearing for the purpose of draining the underground supply of the Santa Ana river basin, and piping it away for use outside the county. This report has roused the people here action and they will prevent the move if such a thug is possible under the law. The county board of supervisors Tuesday took action to show that Orange county was cognizant of reported attempts of Long Beach to secure land in Orange county for developing water to be used by the Beach city and adopted a resolution protesting against such a move on the part of the Beach city. The resolution, a copy of which is to be forwarded to the Long Beach city council as expressing the sentiment of the Orange county government on the question, declares the attempt to tap the underground reservoir of the Santa Ana river watershed, which, it is reported, is contemplated by Long Beach in developing additional water sources, and declares that the water is needed for use in this county. The action on the part of the board followed presentation of the situation by Horace Head, attorney and H. H. Hale, president of the Anaheim Union Water company, which took action at a meeting of its directors, Monday, calling attention to the matter and protesting against the invasion of Orange county water supply by outside sources. Head urged the supervisors to make every possible effort to prevent taking water from the Santa Ana river watershed. Members of the board of supervisors also urged that all cities in the county adopt similar resolutions and forward them to Long Beach to show the sentiment against such action on the part of the Beach city. Mr. Hale, in urging the matter, asserted that Long Beach lay within the San Gabriel river watershed and was engaged in a legal controversy with Pasadena to prevent Pasadena from taking water from that territory, but was reported to be coming into this county to attempt that very thing which it is trying to prevent Pasadena from doing.

The figure moves its arms to signify "welcome" and stands in an archway of heroic size lotus plants. The leaves of the plants are formed of fruit, while the lotus buds are transparent and illuminated from the inside, these serving as beautiful make-bellove interns to light the garden entrance. The grounds is entirely covered with fruit and the terrace effects are decorated with the fruit woven into the design. The garden terraces are outlined by a border of decorated flowers, the center of which is formed by a colored lamp. The petals are made up of oranges, artistically outlined by metallic and colored foil. The leaves also are made up of colored foli and the foremost leaf on each flower carries the name of a town in Orange county. These flowers all shade and nod, this being an unique mechanical action. Surmounting the exhibit, and supported by the large lotus leaves, is a two-sided sign, reading "Orange County," made up of cut-out and appliqued letters and finished with foil. The exhibit covers a floor space of 22 by 23 feet and stands about 23 feet high. The color scheme is in several tones of silver, white rose and great embellishments that serve as a beautiful frame for the fruit. The entire feature is built and decorated on modernist lines, in keeping with the general decorations of the show, and presents a colorful array of soft and concealed lights. Many Visitors at W.R.C.

Future of the Citrus Industry The future outlook for citrus is in general fairly good, particularly for the growers who can produce more than the average crop per acre and better than average quality, according to Harold E. Wahiberg, Farm Advisor, Orange County. The facts upon which Mr. Wahiberg bases his judgment are contained in the Agricultural Outlook for California in 1930. California production of Navels has probably reached its peak. Florida, Texas, and Arizona compete with California Navels as does grapefruit from the same areas and from the Imperial Valley. Production of oranges in those states is destined to increase materially in the next ten years and will have a depressing effect upon the general market situation during the Navel season. The same situation is true for Valencias during the months of April and May. Valencias, however, grown during the summer time will enjoy a much more favorable outlook due to the fact that there is no other territory distributing fruit during that season. There are large grapefruit plantings in Florida, Texas, Arizona, and in the Imperial Valley, California. All of this fruit is marketed from December to May. Prices are apt to be somewhat lower during that season. Prospects for grapefruit during the summer time will be good, however, according to Wahiberg, as there has been but little planting in areas which will produce summer grapefruit. The program rendered at the lunch-eon hour was as follows: Several numbers whistled by Miss Dorothy Winters, who accompanied herself on the plano; Reading by Mrs. Delphine Walsh, entitled "Lincoln's Heart," who also gave a sketch of William McKinley; Mrs. Ludwig Gray, gave a short talk on Washington, also sang three songs, "Tenting On the Old Camp Ground." His Truth is Marching On," and "Marching Through Georgia," accompanied by herself in plano. The committees were Mrs. Mary Mitchel, chairman of dining room, assistants Mrs. Anabelle Tomlin, Bessie Fitzpatrick, Marle O'Neil, Francis Morrey. Mrs. Mary Swindler, chairman of kitchen, assistants Mrs. Alma Pressell, Nettle Abrams. It was an enjoyable luncheon, and the tables were decorated with bouquets of flowers. The visitors present were Mrs. Kate Henny, Department President of California and Nevada, Mrs. D. J. Hughes, of Kansas City, Mo., Mrs. Jean Marvin, President of Legion Auxiliary, Anaheim, Mrs. Florence Allender, Mrs. Ludwig Gray, Mrs. William Crissman, Mrs. Elizabeth Birwhead, Mrs. Emma Mosbough, of Santa Ana. The committees all gave good reports, and at three p.m. the corps was favored by a group of three songs, sung by Mrs. Arthur Kemper, entitled "Memories," "Loves Old Sweet Song," and "Belleve Me. If Those Endearing Young Charms," accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Buttree, and on violin by Lella Brown, songs that were sung during the war. The artists from the Buttree and Mulligan studio.

Jayne Preparing to Call on All Residents of Anaheim and Ask Questions; Urges People to Cooperate and Speed up the Work the Law Requires; Will Ask No Questions He is not Compelled to Under the Law. On Monday, March 3, Harry S. Jayne, city assessor, will begin the work of listing the property of all the inhabitants of the city for purposes of taxation. He will call on you, and ask you numerous questions, some of which you may consider important, but he will ask you nothing that he is not compelled to ask under the law. As an advance statement Mr. Jayne has issued the following: "All personal property consisting of automobiles, pianos, radios, a certain amount of furniture, merchandise and fixtures of places of business, machinery and the like will be listed if it came into the owner's possession on or before March 3 at noon." "Any taxable article a person owns at noon on that day is subject to assessment. Anyone may become the owner of personal property of any description after the date and hour named without having to pay taxes on it for the current year." Therefore," Jayne urged local residents, "this year do not list with the assessor any personal property acquired after March 3 as after record has been made in assessment rolls cancellation will be impossible. "Do not make an effort to evade the assessor. That accomplishes nothing in favor of a taxpayer. Often the result is far from satisfactory to him. Arbitrary assessments are allowed by law when working without the aid of owners of property errors are bound to occur. Many a woman is fearful of bringing down upon her head the wrath of friend husband, who, in many cases, has left instructions not to give the assessor any information or to sign any papers." "For the benefit of men who do not give their wives credit for knowing much in the business line, it might be interesting to them to know that nineteenth of all assessment transactions are with the women of households, who as a rule, know more about the value of home furnishings than their husbands." "It if an assessor had to look up the man of the house to complete his work he would need a great deal more time than is allowed and in many instances arbitrary assessments would be made. The operation is simple and brief when the deputy can step inside and at a glance see what there is of assessable value. This also saves asking innumerable questions."

Anaheim Barber Tired of Living Charlie Pharis Commits Suicide at His Home Saturday Night Charles Pharis, a barber employed in the Anaheim Barber shop on West Center street ended his life Saturday night at his home at 312 East Chartres street by turning on the gas. His wife and 10-year-old daughter, Lucille, were visiting Mrs. Pharis mother at Loma Linda at the time, and he was alone in the house. The body was not discovered until Sunday night when friends of the family, stopped 15 and found his lifeless body on the bed. The house was filled with gas and a hose attached to the gas jet ran to the bed and had been placed in his mouth. A caller, after ventilating the house, immediately notified the police, Dr. O. S. Parrett, of La Habra, a brother-in-law of the dead man, was notified. He communicated with Mrs. Pharis at Loma Linda, and she and her young daughter arrived here Monday morning. Pharis was 30 years of age. He left a note, dated Saturday evening, announcing that ill health and private worries were responsible for the rash deed. It was stated by the police that some weeks ago he purchased a revolver, and it is believed he contemplated suicide at that time. Funeral services were announced for this afternoon at 2 o'clock at the chapel of Backs, Terry, and Campbell, Elder Phillip Knox of the Adventist church at Riverside delivering the sermon. The Anaheim Elks will have charge of the services at the grave. Former associates in business who acted as pall bearers were Fred Sims, Robert Scott, Roy A. Chiles, C. A.

Menges of Fullerton, to be Chosen Exalted Ruler; Election to be Held on March 12. Past Exalted Rulers of Anaheim Elks Lodge were honored last Wednesday night at the regular meeting when the present staff of officers was sidetracked and all the places filled by former heads of the lodge. There was a large attendance; 350 members being present, besides visiting members from Whittier, Santa Ana and other points. Deputy District Grand Exalted Ruler A. R. Schultz, of Redlands, delivered an eulogy on Abraham Lincoln, the date of the meeting falling on Lincoln's birthday. Superior Judge Homer G. Ames, the lodge's first Exalted Ruler occupied the chair and was supported by Thomas L. McFadden, leading knight; H. E. W. Barnes, loyal knight; L. A. Lewis, lecturing knight; L. P. Bonnat and Oscar Heyling, esquires and F. B. Calan, tyler. J. A. Fay allied Secretary Evan Alsip's chair, and Henry Adams, F. A. Backs and H. A. Pearson acted as trustees. Lotus Louden, who had recently been elected loyal knight to fill a vacancy, was installed in that office.

Other nominations are as follows: Jean Arroues of Fullerton, loyal knight; Attorney Leonard Evans of Anaheim who is now esquire, lecturing knight; Evan S.

Alsip, who was nominated for re-election as secretary, has held this post for the past two and one-half years, and Backs has been treasurer of the lodge since it was founded in 1917. Bielefeldt has been tyler for the past five years. District Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler Schultz prefaced his address with complimentary remarks upon the manner in which the past officers of the local lodge handled the work and with a brief discussion of the standing of the order in the world today. He stated that the Elks in the United States now own property valued at $125,000,000, that the cost of operating the various Elks lodges last year was $30,000,000 and that $2,500,000 was spent during the year in charitable work.

"If an assessor had to look up the man of the house to complete his work he would need a great deal more time than is allowed and in many instances arbitrary assessments would be made. The operation is simple and brief when the deputy can step inside and at a glance see what there is of assessable value. This also saves asking innumerable questions. "An ex-service man is entitled to $1000 assessed valuation exemption provided he is a legal resident of California and has an honorable discharge showing he served in the army or navy in the time of war. This certificate must be available to the assessor as application for exemption must be made each year. "Exemption does not apply to any person owning property to the value of $5000 or more in excess of any encumbrance or where the wife of a soldier or sailor is worth $5000 or more or where their community property is of $5000 value or more. This course means actual value and not assessed value. "Be honest with the assessor and he will be reasonable with you." Grand Jury to Get Dope Case On the motion of James L. Dausman, narcotic agent for the United States treasury department, a charge of violation of the Harrison narcotic act, a federal law, preferred against Dr. Arthur C. Robbins, Garden Grove physician, was dismissed at 3 p.m. Monday. Dr. Robbins appeared before United States Commissioner Enderle for his preliminary examination, with his attorney, O. A. Jacobs, of Santa Ana. Dausman immediately moved for dismissal, stating that his action was taken with a view to bringing the matter before the federal grand jury. When Dr. Robbins was arraigned after his arrest last Tuesday, Dausman stated that if the matter was considered by the grand jury, the necessity of a preliminary examination would be removed. It is expected that the grand jury in Los Angeles may consider the case at its next session, which will take place on Friday. The physician is at liberty on $5000 bail. Candidates Out For Council Seats Fred Koesel, Leo Sheridan and Morris Martenet, Jr., Announced On Monday, April 14, three vacant seats at the city council table will be filled by the voters. The three retiring members are W. D. Grafton, A. W. Franzen and Fred Koesel. Grafton and Franzen, who were among the winners in the firey recall election four years ago have served on the board since that date, are retiring to private life, both having refused to enter another race, but Mr. Koesel, who was appointed to fill a vacancy, has consented to run again. Nominating petitions are now being circulated for Fred Koesel, Leo J. Sheridan, and Morris W. Martenet, Jr., and they are being numerously signed by the voters of the city who are supporters of the present administration. But there will be an opposition ticket in the field. While nominating petitions have not yet been put in circulation it is understood, or reported, that W. P. Quarton, F. A. Garrison and H. L. Driscoe will enter the race, and in all probability a merry race it will be. All six of these men are well known to the voters of the city. Their qualifications for the office cannot be questioned, consequently personalities will have little to do with the decision. The real issue is the record made by the present city government. Naturally there is a discontent element that will attempt to fill the vacant seats with men not in sympathy with the majority of the present board. Koesel, Sheridan, and Martenet are the candidates of supporters of the present government, while Quarton, Garrison, and Briscoe, if they consent to be candidates, are on the opposition ticket. Damage Suit Filed By Arnold Kraemer Collapse of an $8,000-barrel oil tank of the Union Oil company in a canyon northeast of Placentia following torrential rains two years ago was made basis of a suit in superior court installing $8,448.50, by ranchers. Arnold R. Kraemer brought the action on behalf of himself and two neighboring ranch owners, S. P. Kraemer and Angeline L. Backs. Arnold Kraemer claims $3,553.50 for damage on 12 acres of land; S. P. Kraemer claims $3,360 for damage on nine acres, and Angeline Backs claims $1,535 for damage on three acres. Oil was left in the wake of the flood, encausted upon soil, trees, shrubs, and buildings, it is alleged. Coolidges Paying Visit Ex-president and Mr. Coolidge arrived in Los Angeles the first of the week and will make an indefinite stay in Southern California. This is Mr. Coolidge's first visit to the Pacific coast. He declined to express his opinion of the balmy southland until he had seen more of it. He indignantly denied that there was any political significance in his tour, stating that he is a private citizen and expects to remain so.

Will Act as Advisory Board to Supervisors. Selection of a presideit and secretary and discussion of the problems which they would be called upon to meet in the future, occupied the attention of the members of the county planning commission, as they met for the first time in an organization session Tuesday afternoon.

Nat Neff, county superintendent of highways, was selected as engineer. Outlines of the task before the commission were developed in the discussion, which followed the organization of the body, and show that a monumental task lies before this body, which was appointed recently by the board of supervisors. A development program for the future growth of the county, so that all projects will fit into an orderly arrangement, must be planned. It was brought out in the discussion that such general subjects as major highways, sub-divisions, recreational facilities, public buildings, utilities, transportation and zoning would come under the general supervision of the commission. The body will act in an advisory capacity to the board of supervisors, making recommendations concerning projects that come up in the future and making surveys for the guidance of the supervisors in future legislation. A committee to arrange for such maps as may be required by the body was appointed by Bigham who selected County Surveyor W. K. Hilyard and H. T. Thompson to handle this matter. The members of the commission were welcomed at the opening of the organization meeting by Willard Smith, chairman of the board of supervisors, who assured the commission of the support of the supervisors in their undertakings. The first Tuesday of each month was chosen as the time for regular sessions. The body will meet in the supervisors' room at the court house at 8:30 a.m. on these days. A special meeting was called by the president for February 27, when further organization plans will be made.
