Read it in the Gazette ALL THE LOCAL AND COUNTY NEWS THE GAZETTE CALL SEVEN-TWO VOLUME LX HARMONY TICKET WEEK ANAHEIM VOTERS ENDORSE MANAGER SYSTEM OF CITY GOVERNMENT AT ELECTION By a majority so decisive, there can be no mistaking the sentiment of the people. Anaheim registered its approval of the city manager form of government at the polls Monday. Judging by the remarkably small margin between the three men on each of the opposing tickets individuality of the candidates was of small consideration. The average vote of Koesel, Martenet and Sherlidan, composing the Harmony ticket which upheld the present government was 1931, and of their three opponents, Bruns, Garrison and Quarton, who were pledged to make a change in the government at the city hall, it was 1247. The average majority, therefore, was 684. Despite the fact that an unusual amount of interest was taken in the issue by the voters, all of whom had a decided preference, the campaign was remarkably clean and there was very little mud-slinging. Desperate efforts were as follows: Fred Koesel ... 1957 Leo J. Sherldan ... 1939 M. W. Martenet ... 1906 W. P. Quarton ... 1262 Fred H. Garrison ... 1246 Geo. W. Bruns ... 1234 The vote by precincts was as follows: Precinct A, comprising precincts 2 and 3, high school—Bruns 80, Garrison, 88; Koesel, 192; Martenet, 187; Quarton, 81, Sherldan, 190. Precinct B, comprising precincts 1 and 4, Euco-Lemo soap factory—Bruns, 111; Garrison, 126; Koesel, 287; Quarton, 139; Sherldan, 281. Precinct C, comprising precincts 6 and 7, La Palma street school—Bruns, 186; Garrison, 476; Koesel, 168; Martenet, 171; Quarton, 187; Sherldan, 180. Precinct D, comprising precincts 10 and 11, Olive Fruit Co. house—Bruns, 121; Garrison, 127; Koesel, 113; Marte- Despite the fact that an unusual amount of interest was taken in the issue by the voters, all of whom had a decided preference, the campaign was remarkably clean and there was very little mud-slinging. Desperate efforts were made by the opposition to prove that the city manager was a useless appendage, a luxury and an unnecessary expense and could be dispensed with, thus saving the cost of maintaining his office, but the voters after reviewing the things accomplished during the past few years, refused to believe it. By their votes Monday they settled for all time this question that has been agitated for years. Interest in the election was shown by the heavy vote. The total was 3206, which was 80 per cent of the registration. The registration was short about a thousand of the total voting strength, as the voters did not realize the importance of the issue until only a week before the date of closing the books. Two thousand of them flocked to the deputies during that week to qualify themselves for an opportunity to take part in the contest. The total vote cast for the six cann JERNIGAN HOST TO NEWS FOLK Will Rogers on "High Horse" at Meeting; 75 Attend Gala Affair Orange county newsapermen and civic leaders closely affiliated with the "fourth estate" this week repeated humorous highlights of Will Rogers' speech and individually thanked Sheriff Jernigan for the banquet and entertainment furnished last Friday night at Santa Ana, where he was host to a group of 75 men from this county, Long Beach and Los Angeles.

That's what I call a regular guy. The humorist dealt at length on the Democratic situation. He denied that he would run for governor of California, because when he run for governor he'll "pick out a state where there are some democrats." Later Rogers remarked: "I wish the wets would get so drunk that they would be speechless and the drys so righteous that the Lord would come and take them away, and then there would be some peace for the rest of us."

Mr. Conkling went into more detail as to the practicability of some of the dams for flood control. Geo. S. Hinckley of San Bernardino county spoke next of the lowering of the ground water levels and referred to the increased expense of pumping water and the necessity for flood control and greater conservation of water. Presents Problem He was followed by W. W. Hoy, Orange county, who also spoke of the lowering water plans in Orange county and the benefit that would accrue by the building of a dam at the lower Santa Ana canyon. Mr. Hoy stressed the point that there was no friction between the three counties in the matter of flood control and water conservation, as planned by the state engineer. Francis Cuttle, president of the Water Conservation association, presented to the commission the great value of products from the area receiving its water supply from the Santa Ana river and its trivittaries, amounting to approximately $80,000,000 per annum.

Mr. Cuttle stressed the necessity for dams at the Forks and Filerla Flats for regulating the flow and desilting water. Closes Argument Senator Ralph E. Swing closed the argument for the three counties. Senator Swing made a very strong presentation of the claims for the Santa Ana river on the ground that up to this time the state had added many projects in the north but so far had only added the Los Angeles county flood control district in the south.

Picking for pool No. 1 of district three, Anaheim Citrus Fruit association, began Wednesday morning, with district four scheduled next and districts one and two to follow, according to Manager Carl Monahan, who was particularly optimistic about the market as demonstrated so far in selling of old varieties and prices brought by independent marketings. Favorable Market J. H. Ritchle, manager of the Anaheim Community Orange Growers, stated that packing for his concern was of odd varieties at that time, together with the projected shut-out of Florida shipping by the middle of April, had brought favorable reaction for valencias which, while the early market would be high, probably would bring just as good if not better returns if growers didn't get in too big a hurry to ship fruit. Manager Pierce advised growers not to ship their valencias until they were ready, because immature fruit on the market wouldn't net any greater returns. Florida Shipments Cease Last season the Anaheim Citrus Fruit association shipped 560,000 boxes, while this year Manager Monahan is preparing to ship out between 250,000 and 300,000 boxes, a decrease of 50 percent over 1929. This is just an example of smaller quantities of fruit, which has reversed the market of last year when oranges were disposed of at low figures in contrast to what they will bring this Picking for pool No. 1 of district three, Anaheim Citrus Fruit association, began Wednesday morning, with district four scheduled next and districts one and two to follow, according to Manager Carl Monahan, who was particularly optimistic about the market as demonstrated so far in selling of old varieties and prices brought by independent marketings. Favorable Market J. H. Ritchie, manager of the Anaheim Community Orange Growers, stated that packing for his concern was scheduled to get under way today (Thursday), and that indications clearly pointed to the best market and best quality of valencias in the history of the association. While the crop isn't as large as last year's advantage of a sellers' market over the buyers' market of a season ago probably will result in greater returns for local growers, he stated. Henry Mang reported Tuesday that he had sold oranges on his orchard, located on West Ball road, for seven cents the pound, while J. K. Langdon reported an offering from independents of six and one-tenth cents the pound for fruit on the trees. These prices are unusually high and are direct indication of the favorable market. Manager H. W. Pierce, of Anaheim Co-operative Orange, two weeks ago predicted a sellers' market. Disposal 30-FOLD EXPORT GROWTH IS CITED M. O. D. Salesmanager Points Out Citrus Fruit Demand In Foreign Market Increase of more than 3,000 per cent, in six years export shipments of California citrus fruits from California ports is reported by J. A. Steward, salesmanager of the Mutual Orange Distributors. "Exports from a California port began in a small way in 1922," he states. "Before this, citrus fruit for export had gone via rail to New York or other eastern port, to sail from there." As soon as this transport from California was proved the figures crept up. In 1924, 40,700 boxes went abroad; in 1925, 100,000 boxes; in 1926, 207,000 boxes; in 1927, 682,852 boxes; in 1928, 300,337 boxes; in 1929, 1,612,812 boxes. Thus, in 1929, exports of California citrus from California ports had grown more than thirty-fold over the shipments in 1924. Find Ready Sale "Out of this 1929 total of more than 1,600,000 boxes sent by all California sources, the M. O. D., shipped 358,000 boxes. This added to help the domestic markets in absorption of small sizes, as about 70 per cent of all our exports ship their valencias until they were ready, because immature fruit on the market wouldn't not any greater returns. Florida Shipments Cease Last season the Anaheim Citrus Fruit association shipped 560,000 boxes, while this year Manager Monahan is preparing to ship out between 250,000 and 300,000 boxes, a decrease of 50 per cent over 1929. This is just an example of smaller quantities of fruit, which has reversed the market of last year when oranges were disposed of at low figures in contrast to what they will bring this season. Florida shipments ceased at midnight Monday, a precautionary measure taken to combat the deadly fruit fly which has worked havoc with certain districts in the southern state. Federal quarantine forced careful inspection of every box of fruit leaving Florida this winter. Approximately 800 boxes of Florida fruit now are in storage in the East, but this amount probably won't affect the marketing of valencias from California, it is generally agreed. Shipment of valencias this year is about three weeks ahead of last season when picking began in earnest on May 5. Independents already have shipped out something over 200 cars of new valencias, while the North Orange county exchanges will have sent somewhat less than 100 cars by the end of this week, estimates show. VALENCIAS WIN STARTER, 12-2 George Pace's Night Ballers Clash With Olive Friday Evening From out of oblivion came Olive to loom on the horizon as one of the strong contenders for the National league night baseball championship. And downed in the first upset and total surprise of the season is Santa Ana, the team which heretofore has met Anaheim Valencias in the final playoffs—and too often walked off with the laurels. This was how the baseball situation in the local major league stood today as the second game in the first round of the 1930 season, to be played on Friday evening, near. Upsets, of course, are what make athletic games so interesting. If everything went according to dope there wouldn't be any members of the teams and folks in the centive to attend because there wouldn't be the drama of suspence and the creation of sudden athletic heroics. Valencias, bifling the skin they love to touch for 13 bingles and 12 runs, downed their arch-enemy, as far as past pennant contentions are concerned, in the eye-opener of the season. Garden Grove always has boobbed up in the In 1924, 48,700 boxes went abroad; in 1925, 100,000 boxes; in 1926, 207,000 boxes; in 1927, 682,852 boxes; in 1928, 300,337 boxes; in 1929, 1,612,812 boxes.

Find Ready Sale "Out of this 1929 total of more than 1,600,000 boxes sent by all California sources, the M. O. D., shipped 358,000 boxes. This aided to help the domestic markets in absorption of small sizes, as about 70 per cent of all our exports consisted of 288's and smaller. Our exports alone took 240,000 boxes of 288's and smaller off the domestic markets, and these small sizes found ready sale in the United Kingdom and eleven other foreign countries." Continuing to review the details of exports: Steward cites figures just released by Daniel J. Moriarty, foodstuffs division, United States Department of Commerce. This report shows increased value of exported oranges in 1929 over 1928 as $3,235,000; increase value of grapefruit, $718,000. The report states in part: "Canada is our principal foreign market for oranges, mostly California fruit, and in 1929 took 3,600,000 boxes as against 2,300,000 boxes in 1928, and 2,600,000 boxes in 1927. The United Kingdom is our second foreign market for oranges, taking 1,490,000 boxes in 1929 as against 150,000 boxes in 1928 and 600,000 boxes in 1927." Cities Figures Other foreign markets and their takings of United States oranges in 1929 are set forth in the report: Netherlands, 103,000 boxes; Germany, 81,000 boxes; New Zealand, 75,000 boxes; China, 59,000 boxes; Philippines, 48,000 boxes; Hong Kong, 19,000 boxes; Newfoundland and Labrador, 17,000 boxes; Sweden, 14,000 boxes; Mexico, 13,000 boxes; British Malaysia, 12,000 boxes; Australia, 7,200 boxes; Japan, 4,900 boxes; Finland, 4,700 boxes; Dutch West Indies, 4,700 boxes; Panama, 4,500 boxes; Venezuela, 2,600 boxes; Bermudas, 2,200 boxes; Ceylon, 2,000 boxes; Colombia, 1,800 boxes; Denmark, 1,100 boxes; Argentina, 1,100 boxes; Java and Madura, 1,100 boxes. Cheer up men. The house cleaning season will soon be here and then you can have business out of town. Valencias, bifining the skin they love to touch for 13 bingles and 12 runs, downed their arch-enemy, as far as past pennant contentions are concerned. In the eye-opener of the season. Garden Grove always has bobbed up in the past to play the part of the Boston Red Sox in ruining the hopes of championship contenders. But Tuesday evening they succumbed to the steady pitching of Ochoa. Phil Schrott's batting, and Preble's exceptional work at field and on offense. The potential strength of George Pace's boys is unquestioned after their initial start. There's humor Too Only impartial but rather poor umpliring marred the game for fans and players. At first what appeared to be gross errors on close plays irked stands, but as the Valencias drew away from their foes with a lop-sided score, the tenseness and fear of being robbed by a close decision was eliminated, and everybody joined in the jokes at the expense of the umps. The decisions of officials however called for a loud protest from managers of both teams and from the fans, and a change by Friday evening is anticipated. Olive comes to Anaheim for the second game of the first round. This is the team that stepped on Santa Ana by a score of 5 to 1 Tuesday evening and by virtue of thi surprise must be considered as among the probable first four or five at the conclusion of hostilities. Whittier living up to expectations, sent the Fullerton squad down to defeat by the score of 12 to 2 while Huntington Beach which again has a strong team fell before the onslaught of Long Beach. 5 to 7. The only way to make a naval conference a success is for the United States to agree to do some more sinking and agree to let the others do some more building. And we have a very noisy minority in the United States which would like to see every naval conference turn out that way.
