M.E. CONFERENCE RETURNS TWO PASTORS
Dr. Ralph W. Lee and Rev. B. C. Voll Will Serve Here for Another Year
Anaheim people, especially those connected with the Methodist churches, have been much interested in the annual conference which has been in session at Long Beach for several days past, and much satisfaction is expressed over the action of the conference in returning Rev. Ralph W. Lee, of the White Temple church, and Rev. B. C. Voll, of the German Methodist church. Both these ministers have endeared themselves to their congregations, and are popular among the people outside their churches.
Dr. Lee was sent here a year ago after Dr. B. S. Haywood had announced his withdrawal from active pastoral duty for a year in order to lead a band of tourists on a world tour. The sudden illness of his wife prevented his taking the trip, and his untimely death while she was still an invalid, put an end to his ministerial career.
Dr. J. Allen Gelssinger, formerly pastor of the White Temple church, who served his congregation five years,

Citizens Urged to Register Early and Avoid Eleventh-Hour Rush
Registration clerks in eleven cities and towns in northern Orange county have been appointed by County Clerk J. M. Backs in preparation for the registration rush expected during the last few weeks before the books close on July 25, a month before the primary election.
Hundreds of residents of practically every city and town have not registered, County Clerk Backs states. Those eligible to vote at the primaries are urged to register at once in order to avoid the eleventh-hour rush that is sure to mark the closing days of registration.
List of clerks in their respective districts follows:

Many Takers
Approximately 1,500 pioneers this week receive meeting of old fraternal reminence after Orange county park lashes the Old Timers of the county annual picnic.

But Anaheim is to lose one of its pastors, it is believed. Rev. Thomas H. Walker, pastor of the Presbyterian church, has been informed that he will be called to the pastorate of the Westminster church. As he has not been officially notified of the call he declines to comment on the matter, but it is believed he will accept it. Rev. Walker has been pastor of the Anaheim church for nine years, and aside from his ministerial work has been active in civic affairs. If he decides to leave here he will be greatly missed.
Charivaree Awaits Newlyweds' Return
When Mr. and Mrs. Herman Huene-meyer returned to Anaheim Tuesday evening after a short honeymoon spent in the north, they found that their marital life was to begin not without some bit of annoyance, for awaiting them were over a score of their young friends who proceeded with a previously arranged charivariere.
Some two dozen cars greeted the newlyweds, who were put upon the back of a truck and then driven through the city's streets amidst the shooting of fireworks and the honking of horns. The parade continued for some time and was concluded by the couple's playing hosts to the entire group at a local confectionery.
Those taking part in the serenade were: Miss Twila Brownell, Miss Jeanette Randall, Miss Dorothy Huene-meyer, Miss Bernice Highberger, Miss Clara Stoffel, Miss Leola Randall, Miss Mary Huene-meyer, Miss Ann Mertz.

LICENSE PLATE
COLORS ARE SAME
Black and Orange Will Again be Used on 1931 Auto Licenses
The 1931 colors for automobile license plates will be exactly the same as this year except that they will be reversed, the Division of Motor Vehicles announcer today.
Instead of black letters and numerals on an orange background, it was stated, orange letters will appear on a black background, just as they were in 1929.
Exhaustive tests for visibility, the Division's announcement said, have proven beyond all doubt that these colors are the most satisfactory and that numbers may be read at a greater distance than with any other combination.
The only change in the general appearance of next year's plate will be the elimination of the dashes between numerals and letters. This will be done to improve the plate's appearance and not decrease visibility.
The plates will be 13 7-8 inches long and 6 1-8 inches wide as provided by the motor vehicle act. They will be manufactured of the same grade of 24-gauge steel.
The same combination of letters and numerals that has proven as satisfactory in the last two years will be used. The Division announced that a maximum of 2,070,000 plates of not more than six characters may be issued with this arrangement.
An initial order for 1,980,000 pleasure car plates has been placed. The plates will be manufactured by the Kittle Manufacturing Company of Los Angeles at a price of 13 1-2 cents per pair.
Plates assignments are now being prepared for the various branch offices of the Division.
It was announced the patrol has received information that thousands of motorists will leave for long trips Thursday afternoon and Friday morning having made arrangements to absent themselves from the usual half-day of work on Saturday.
This condition, it was announced, will prevail throughout the state.
Superintendent Eugene W. Biscalluz has issued orders that there shall be no days off for any officer during this emergency period and that every available man, including inspectors and captains will be on duty.
The night patrol will be on duty in practically every county during the period. Roads leading to mountain and seaside resorts will be patrolled carefully.
"Casualties were lighter than we anticipated during the recent Memorial day week-end," Biscalluz stated. "We believe this partly due to the co-operation we received from the public. We hope we shall continue to have this co-operation during the coming emergency period. After all, the result is entirely up to the public."
Bank Will Increase Interest on Savings
The board of directors of the German-American Savings bank of Los Angeles have raised the rate of interest to be paid on Savings accounts to 4% per cent commencing July 1st, announced by Carl L. Schloessmann, president of the bank today.
Mr. Schloessmann said, in announcing the new rate, that "The German American Savings bank is strictly a savings bank and is primarily concerned with the policy of encouraging thrift and savings. As it is not devoted to the commercial side of banking, it is enable to concentrate entirely on the requirements of savings depositors. It has made a study of the movement of savings bank throughout the country in raising the rate of interest and in doing the German American Savings bank has appreciated the value of doing likewise and therefore takes pleasure in announcing its new policy."
Mr. and Mrs. Harold Kyle of 604 South Divkel street visited Mrs. Kyle's uncle, Charles Seymour, principal of the Long Beach high school, at Long Beach Sunday.

Harry Clubb Talks to Son-in-law
In Pittsburgh and Daughter at Beaver, Pa.
When distances are too great for a limited vacation, do your visiting by telephone.
This is the advice this week of Harry H. Clubb, manager of the Anaheim branch, Wiley B. Allen company, who Sunday night talked for 15 minutes with his son-in-law, Howard S. Jones, in Pittsburgh, and his daughter, Mrs. Jones and granddaughter who were 30 miles from Pittsburgh, at Beaver, Pa.

Organize League To Enforce Law
With Representation of church workers, dry leaders and business men from virtually every community in the county present and with apparent determination to take an active part in the proaching elections as part of a definite year-round program, the Law Enforcement League of Orange county sprang into existence Tuesday night at Garden Grove.
Approximately 75 persons were in attendance at the meeting which was held in the Garden Grove Methodist Episcopal church and which had originally been scheduled for the Santa Ana Y. M. C. A. The change in meeting place was explained to the group as necessitated by previous publicity. It was the continuation of a movement started in Anaheim on June 27 when a group of interested churchmen gathered to create interest in law enforcement in Orange county.
Temporary officers of the organization were selected as permanent officiers by the group. They are Perry Mathis, of Anaheim, rancher and former mayor, president; and Russell R. Lutes, contractor and builder, of Santa Ana, secretary. It is reported that a liberal fund was subscribed at the meeting to finance the operations of the League during its campaign. The funds are to be used in arousing interest in the principles of law enforcement for which the League stands, wherever needed.
Purposes set forth in the resolution which was unanimously adopted bringing the League into being are stated as being "to carry on an educational campaign in the interest of law enforcement; to endorse candidates suitable by personal habit and training for the task; and to support the officers when elected in helping them carry out the program undertaken."

Three Burglaries In One Night
Burglarists succeeded in looting three houses in Anaheim Monday night and made a fourth attempt but failed, probably because they were disturbed. The homes of C. M. Mitchell on Santa Fe street and J. B. Carmelo on East Chartres were burglarized, as well as the Ashley service station at Palm and Broadway. The thieves secured $23 from the Mitchell home, $10 from Carmelo's and $1.50 in change at the service station.
An effort was made to enter the Hill grocery store on South Palm street but the job was abandoned. It is also thought that they tried to break into the Miller store on South Los Angeles street.
All these jobs were evidently the work of one gang.

Short-wave System to be Installed Within Fortnight, Report
Residents of Cypress this week awaited construction within two weeks of a $50,000 short-wave radio sending and receiving station on property formerly included in the Ibbetson ranch. This site was sold by I. Gordon, through Cypress realty dealers, to Heintz and Kaufman, commercial short-wave firm of San Francisco which operates stations at the Golden Gate, New York City, Portland, Seattle, Shanghai, Guam Island, and Manilla.
Two 90-foot poles for sending, and several lesser structures for receiving, will be erected, while two houses, one a generator room and the other as operator's headquarters, already have been constructed. The station's equipment, when complete, will cost in the neighborhood of $50,000.
Heintz and Kaufman announced last Friday that the station would be used for commercial purposes, with the main customer to date the Dollar Steamship company, which operates a 'round-the-world passenger and freight service and a horseshoe route, from San Francisco, to Manila to San Pedro line. Captain Robert Dollar and his son, Stanley R. Dollar contemplate using the short-wave system to keep in constant touch with their vessels. The station will have a 2,000-mile radius. The wave-length for the station has not been assigned, but is expected to be between 17 and 40 meters.
