ROLPH HAILED AS GREAT CHIEF (Continued from page 1) "The entire fabric of their despicable insinuations is a tissue of lies. There is no more honorable, upright, human, kindly, honest man in California than Mayor James Rolph of San Francisco. Those who know him or have met him are proud to be able to give him their support. I am glad to see so many women here tonight. It shows that lies of Rolph's opponents are not believed. Warns of Opposition "You workers will meet some opposition among the voters on the basis of the dry law. This, however, is an issue with which Rolph will have nothing to do, and rightly. He has no more concern with enforcing the prohibition law in California than you and I. There is no state constabulary charged with detecting dry law violations. Enforcement of law is in the hands of the district attorneys of the various counties. Buron Flits could do more to enforce the dry law as district attorney of Los Angeles County than he could as governor of the state of California in 500 years." Many Attend Dr. Cushman doubts if another candidate will enter the field. Less than three weeks remain for an independent candidate to secure 18,000 registered voters who didn't express their views at the primary election August 26. "I would welcome a third candidate, however," he said, "because I feel confident that Rolph would be overwhelmingly elected. Those present honored Henry Kuchel, veteran editor of the Anaheim Gazette, by a resolution expressing their appreciation of his support in the primary campaign. Those from northern Orange county were: Mr. and Mrs. P. A. Stanton, Ted and Tom Kuchel of Anaheim; Mr. and Mrs. P. J. Ton of Yorba Linda; Mr. and Fred C. Rimpau and his sister, Miss Sophie Rimpau, were back here this week following a strenuous 149th anniversary celebration of the founding of Los Angeles, held at the historic old adobe house in the rejuvenated Spanish street near the plaza. This old house, the home of the Rimpau's grandmother, is still in possession of the family. Mr. Rimpau and his sister were week-end guests of Mr. and Mrs. Frank T. Rimpau in Alhambra, following the two-day fiesta in Los Angeles. They attended a showing of "Osceola" at Tugunga, and John Steven McGroarty entertained them. The famous old Spanish house in Los Angeles now is being used as a museum where relics of countless value are being exhibited."

The questions indicate that on the whole, Anaheim is a most desirable place in which to live work and educate children. Undoubtedly there are a number of improvements, but the varied amount of suggestions and the fact that but few hit upon the same idea, offers testimony as to the satisfactory progress of the city and a big field for improvements. There might be something in the idea of the White House letting the country work out some of its own problems. President Cleveland did, so did President McKinley.

PAYMENTS FOR ORANGE CROP SHOOT OVER $2,000,000 MARK Placentia's Bradford Brothers House Pays-Out on Second Pool; Olive Fruit Company Makes Advances of $893,000 TODAY TOMORROW FRANK PARKER STOCKBRIDGE SHEETS To determine why cotton fabric were out, the U.S. Bureau of Home Economics has made a laboratory test of 400 sheets discarded by a big Washington hotel. The results of the tests have been submitted to manufacturers of sheeting, who are trying to find ways to make sheets which will wear longer in the parts where these gave out. Not a matter of great national importance, perhaps, but an illustration of the way in which scientific research by the Government aids manufacturers and incidentally helps to provide the public with better goods. INDUSTRIES Economists, statesmen and capitalists are hunting for new industries to take up the slack in permanent employment resulting from the extension of labor-saving devices in established industries. One thing that is being seriously considered by one of the great corporations which manufactures mechanical devices, is a machine which can be installed in the home, like a radio or refrigerator, which will cool the house or at least the room it is in, in Summer. In the laboratory it is possible to do this now. What is needed is the development of this on a commercial PAYMENTS FOR ORANGE CROP SHOOT OVER $2,000,000 MARK Placentia's Bradford Brothers House Pays-Out on Second Pool; Olive Fruit Company Makes Advances of $893,000 to Members; Prospects for Next Year Bright Just how far above the $2,000,000 mark payments for valencia oranges in northern Orange county shot this week was indefinite with the report that Bradford Brothers of Placentia has sent a considerable sum for the pay-out of the second pool, representing returns from about 40 cars of fruit. Other houses paying within the last week included the Olive Fruit company which has paid member-growers approximately $893,000 in advance settlements to date, and has spent $40,896 for labor. About 20 more cars will be placed on the market from this organization before the end of the year, while it so far has sent out 483 carloads of 452 boxes each. A great percentage of the fruit in northern Orange county already has been shipped. About 2,500 cars yet remain and are being sent on schedule from orders from headquarters. It is stated, making the prices hold up exceedingly well and keeping an even supply of fruit on the market. Most managers of associations in the Anaheim district are extremely optimistic about the amount of fruit in prospect for next year. There seems to be a heavy setting. Manager Glenn Wiley of Bradford Brothers states that the fruit on the trees in his district is exceptionally good and prospects bright for next year. 20-30 Members Hear Talk On Insurance Confusion regarding different types of automobile insurance was cleared up for members of the Anaheim 20-30 club at the meeting Monday evening at the Elks clubhouse when Resident Manager A. P. M. Brown of the Auto Club of Southern California discussed the subject. Walter Hammell, delegate to the convention at Sacramento, presented his expert Dr. C. O. Patterson, accompanied at the plano by Miss Virginia Long, sang several numbers. Heating Soil For Truck Crops Heating soil by electricity to force truck crops for early markets is to be tried by the University of California College of Agriculture, in cooperation with the California Committee on the Relation of Electricity to Agriculture. Announcement of the experiment is made by J. R. Tavernetti, field agent for the committee, whose offices are in the Division of Agricultural Engineering at the Branch of the College of Agriculture at Davis. Cooperating with Tavernetti in the experiment are Dr. H. A. Jones, head of the Division of Truck Crops, and Prof. B. D. Moses of the Division of Agricultural Engineering. It is expected that the Division of Soil Technology also will participate in the experiment to determine what effect, if any, the electricity has on the soil. The first experiment will be made in cold frames with cucumbers, to determine if they can be forced three or four weeks in advance of those planted in the regular way. Heating elements will be placed in the soil and a careful record will be kept of the temperatures maintained and the current consumed. "We have no idea that heating the soil will be economically practical for field crops," says Tavernetti. "But in the case of some vegetables which command high prices in advance of the season, it probably will make returns on the investment. The amount of current consumed probably will not be large and while the installation cost would not be negligible, the extra price paid for the produce should more than compensate the grower, we believe."

Los Angle Phone 1548 CONCRETE In writing the history of human progress a thousand years from now one of the important milestones which will have to be recorded will be the invention of Portland cement, in the early 1800s. The use of concrete consisting of Portland cement and sand, gravel or crushed stone is one of the great advances made practically in our own time. It is still so new that all of its possible applications have not been realized. An improvement in concrete, making it at once lighter and more nearly fireproof, has just been developed. Tests by Columbia University experts proved that it resists a temperature of 1,800 degrees and weighs less than a third of ordinary concrete, bluk for bulk. It is made by adding aluminum powder and soda to the aggregate. The aluminum generates hydrogen gas and makes the concrete rise like bread, so that it takes only a third as much to fill a given space. Two inches of the liquid mass poured for a floor, for example, will rise to nearly six inches thick, drying as it expands. Fireproof and heatproof homes will be regarded as necessities a hundred years hence. REST A ten-minute rest every two or three hours is a better stimulus to continued efficiency than lopping off an entire hour from the working day. The Women's Bureau of the U.S.Department of Labor reports. Tests of the recuperative power of the human machine have proved that it takes four times as long for the muscles to rest when they have been worked to the endurance limit, as it does for them to regain their tone after working half as long. In one large New York publishing house there is a ten-minute rest period at 10:30 in the morning and another at 3 in the afternoon. The same office closes down all day Saturday from April to October. Its record of production, is higher than in any office with which its work has been compared. Mental workers as well as physical workers benefit by complete relaxation at frequent intervals. We should think that 156-year-old Turk's one greatest reason for thankfulness would be that he never did anything in his youth for which they could have sent him up for life.
