Richfield Oil Co. Breaks Altitude Record In Taking Here are the members of the Richfield Oil Company Eclipse Expedition photographed after a record setting flight in the Giant Tri-motored Fokker Monoplane at Saeramento. The plane attained an altitude of 19,500 feet, said to be the highest point to which a loaded tri-motored Fokker has ever been flown. Top photo shows (left to right) Harry McPherson, Press Representative; Tommy Fowler, Pilot; Charlie Glouner, Universal Pictures Corporation Cameraman; Al Button, Co-pilot; and George Woodward, Staff Cameraman for the Richfield Aviation De- When Tommy Fowler pilot of the Richfield Fokker trimotored cabin liner, turned the nose of that gold and blue air cruiser skyward at Sacramento he was seeking altitude in the interests of science. In other words, all he wanted to get was enough of an altitude angle so that the motion picture photographers might get a picture of "Lady Luna" as the moon's shadow spied across this territory in an unusual exclipse. But what he got, in addition to the proper height asked for by the movie men, was an altitude record for trimotored Fokker planes bearing a height of better than 19,500 feet. In addition to this record, it is asserted here at Mather Field where the Richfield cruiser took off and landed, that Fowler's altitude represents a new height mark for motion picture photography. Due to the fact that the sun was obscured during the eclipse by the shadow of the moon, unusually low temperatures were encountered by the plane. Fowler stated. One of the cameras became filmed with ice from the condensed moisture within the ship, bottles of water froze solidly, and one of the bottles of oxygen froze. The latter event supplied a most dramatic moment in that the freezing of the oxygen tank occurred just before here at Mather Field where the Richfield cruiser took off and landed, that Fowler's altitude represents a new height mark for motion picture photography.

Comparisons made by Cattell, who has been a Member of the Equalization Board since 1919, show that assessments for the first quarter have increased from 157,128,556.5 gallons six years ago to 295,461,257.1 gallons this year. In addition to administration of the gasoline tax (the State Board of Equalization directs the major part of the balance of California's revenue system, including taxes on railroads, power companies, telephone companies, highway transportation companies and other public utilities, as well as insurance companies). These taxes now aggregate more than $40,000,000 annually, having increased from $7,200,000 in 1911, when the Equalization Board was first placed in charge of them. Commenting upon the substantial part which the gasoline tax plays in the state's revenues, Cattell said: "The remarkable productivity of this tax is forcefully demonstrated from the fact that it represents practically half of the $80,000,000 in taxes raised by our Board each year. "During my ten years of experience in revenue administration, I have become convinced that a simple tax of this character, used reasonably, is much to be preferred to over-elaborate methods of defraying public expenses some times urged upon us by economic theorists unfamiliar with actual conditions. "For the sake of our citizenry I hope that the gasoline tax, and others like it, will constitute permanent parts of our tax system and that intricate schemes for raising public funds will be discarded and avoided. "Experience has proved that these schemes are frequently inequitable and cost more to administer than their yield justifies." Cattell has lived in Pasadena for the past twenty-five years and represents the fourth equalization district comprising Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, Ventura, Orange, Riverside, San Diego, Imperial and San Bernardino counties. Before his election to the Equalization Board he served two terms in the State Assembly. Worth Millions Agricultural Commissioner B. A. Harrigan recently published a report of Imperial Valley products for 1929 which shows a very high level of income for the district—over $62,000,000. Melons showed the biggest returns, those other than watermelons bringing over $22,500,000, while watermelons exceeded $2,000,000. Lettuce brought $12,116,288. Increased shipments were very noticeable, particularly in spinach and similar types of vegetables. 804 cars out in 1929, in contrast with twenty-seven the year before. The carrot is another vegetable which has greatly increased stop will be at the planting of Counter pines set out at a forestry day four years ago. From here the route taken will be up Black Star Canyon to where the rim road branches off to the East. At this point the Orange County group will be met by a similar delegation from Riverside County, who have asked to join the tour. A few minutes stop will be made here as a wonderful view is to be had of both Orange and Riverside Counties at this point. Likewise some conception of the scope of watershed area in this region is to be gained. From here the route taken will be over the road constructed by the Forest Service and the County along the crest of the Santa Ana mountains to the ranger camp, a distance of about seventeen miles. Here all will be ready for lunch, with the drive over the mountain road and the invigoration of high elevations. Following lunch and greeting of the Riverside group, along with prominent Forestry officials, the trip to Santiago Peak will be continued, a distance of about twelve miles. This peak is the highest point in Orange County, with an elevation of 5680 feet. Enroute the equipment used in making firebreaks will be seen in action. Those planning on making the trip are asked to communicate with the Farm Advisor's office, so that the committee will know how many to plan on for lunch. While the road traveled over is a narrow mountain road, intended only for fire protection purposes, it is perfectly safe to traverse. However the car should be in good mechanical condition to make the grades along the way.
