Whirlwind Finish Of Rolph Campaign Republican Candidates for Governor and Lieut.-Governor to Spent Week in Southland IN ORANGE COUNTY OCT 31 Twenty-Two Talks to Be Made In Six Days last Friday evening by the Orange County Engineers' Club. This first step was in the appointment of a committee to draft a resolution to be presented to the consulting engineers of the Orange County Flood Control Association and to the Orange county board of supervisors. The resolution will ask these two organizations to make a study of the possibilities or reclaiming sewage water that now flows into the Pacific and turn it again to use for irrigation and industrial purposes. The committee to draft the resolution is composed of O. E. Steward of Anaheim, maintenance engineer for the joint outfall sewer, as chairman, and the city engineers of the county, among them is E. P. Hapgood of this city. The opinion that a practical solution of the waste water problem has been found, is based on what the engineers and city officials recently saw in the experimental station that has been established in Griffith park, Los Angeles. Anaheim was represented at the conference by City Engineer Hapgood; V. W. Hannum, city superintendent of water and power; Millard Parks, Ewald Lemke, Don Hall, Ray Pomeroy and Mr. Steward. Casey Bonebrake, city engineer of Orange, was host at the dinner, and Natt Neff, county highway superintendent and president of the engineers organization, presided. R. A. Goodcell, of the Automobile Club of Southern California, talked on the International Pacific highway, and showed moving pictures of the recent exploration of the route in Mexico. The musical program was vocal numbers by Miss Sally Coe of Orange, with Mrs. Coe as piano accompanist. The meeting was attended by 47 members of the club. Signs of Water Shortage Speaking to the Anaheim Rotary club at its meeting Monday, Mr. Steward gave forewarning of expenditures which must be made in bringing Colorado river water to the coastal plains in the next ten years. He said that in the past few months 35 water wells along the ocean shores of Orange and Los Angeles counties have been abandoned because of the infiltration of salt water. The Anaheim underground channel is but 20 feet above sea level, Mr. Steward said, and is dropping 10 feet a year. This condition, he said, should cause the people of Anaheim as well as all Southern California to prepare themselves for vast expenditures which will be required to bring in the waters of the Colorado. Mr. Steward said that a number of industrial enterprises along the coast are now seeking new locations because they fear a water shortage is coming. When the Hoover-Boulder dam is completed, he said, and the aqueduct of the tion, water to supply 7,500,000 people will be brought into Southern California.

AHEIM GAZETE Anaheim, California, Thursday, October 23, 1930 Crowds of 66,000 Expected Nov. 11 Preparations By Anaheim Committees for Entertaining Visitors on Armistice Day THE PAGEANT OF STATES Long List of Features Make Up Day's Events Anaheim is expected to be the mecca for upwards of 60,000 patriotic citizens November 11 for the eleventh annual county-wide Armistice Day celebration to be held here. Beginning at 10 a.m. with aerial stunts, including a parachute drop, the day will be a rapid fire procession of events of interest to all, according to Ray E. Smith, general chairman of the committee in charge of the program. The 'piece-de-resistance' will be the Pageant of States parade in which it is expected upwards of 50 artistically decorated floats will depict interesting epochs in the life of the various states of the union. There will be a boys' military school division with approximately 400 boys in line; a boy's scout division with every troop in the county represented. The Old Curiosity Shop, in London, made famous by Charles Dickens, is being repaired without changing its general appearance. Step Taken To Buy State Park Tract Condemnation Action Brought to Acquire Ocean Frontage Nearest to Anaheim Condemnation action has been filed in Superior Court at Santa Ana as a preliminary step toward acquiring 2.5 miles of ocean frontage between Huntington Beach and Newport Beach, which is to be converted into a state park. This is the nearest ocean beach to Anaheim. The condemnation proceedings were brought by Attorney General U. S. Webb on behalf of the State Park Board. A plan is proposed that the state, county and property owners agree on a limited number of appraisers to give testimony on values, instead of delaying proceedings by calling in a large number of witnesses. In accordance with the State Park bond act, the county will pay half the cost of the proposed park tract, the property to pass to the ownership of the Park Board and to be maintained by the state. The Orange County Board of Supervisors have agreed to call a bond issue to meet the county's half of the purchase price as soon as the amount is decided by the court, which may be done within 60 to 90 days. Should the county fail to vote the bonds the condemnation action would end with the state's refusal to accept the court's judgment. The park site, extending for two and a half miles along the ocean front is about a quarter-mile wide. The property owners have held it at $1,482,000, while a joint board of county and state appraisers have agreed on a price of $618,000. The wide difference between the two valuations led to the condemnation action, to which the 24 property owners are made defendants.

He had just finished breakfast when the attack came. He was 55 years old, was a veteran Beginning at 10 a.m. with aerial stunts, including a parachute drop, the day will be a rapid fire procession of events of interest to all, according to Ray E. Smith, general chairman of the committee in charge of the program. The 'piece-de-resistance' will be the Pageant of States parade in which it is expected upwards of 50 artistically decorated floats will depict interesting epochs in the life of the various states of the union. There will be a boys' military school division with approximately 400 boys in line; a boy's scout division with every troop in the county represented; a national guard division headed by Major Don Winans; Legion and other veterans organizations with the flags and standards; and, a mounted division featuring more than 250 thorough-breeds of the El Rodeo Riding club led by Mayor Frank L. Purinton of Santa Ana. Music for the parade will be furnished by 18 bands and numerous drum and bugle corps, including the crack naval band from the U. S. S. Mississippi. Anaheim post has invested approximately $1,000 in beautiful trophies to be awarded winners in the various divisions in the parade and in the competitive exhibitions which will follow. Brea-Ollinda and Anaheim high school football teams will clash in the chief afternoon attraction in one of their traditionally bitter gridiron encounters. In the evening six of the crack American Legion drum and bugle corps will stage a free exhibition under the city park lights. Free auto parking along the line of march of the parade will be handled by Legionnaires. At the picnic grounds at the city park free coffee and trimmings will be served.

A delegation from Anaheim, as well as members of the Legion from Fullerton, Orange and Garden Grove, attended a meeting of merchants of Santa Ana Tuesday night, when the merchants voted to close their stores on Armistice Day that the celebration of the day might be made county wide. There had been a sentiment among some of the Santa Ana merchants favoring keeping their stores open because stores in Los Angeles, Pasadena and Long Beach year after year had declined to close. This meant, it was said, that people from the small towns went to the large ones to shop on Armistice day, penalizing the small towns in this sense. Those attending the Santa Ana meeting from Anaheim were George W. Reid, Kurt Epstein and Oscar Renner, of the Chamber of Commerce, and Ray Smith and Earl Fulton, of the Anaheim Republican Party.

The outstanding feature is to be a gorgeous parade for which 37 floats and 57 decorated automobiles have already been assured, while in the mounted division there will be over 100 equestrians. The committees have made a rule that no autos will not be premitted in the parade unless the cars are decorated. The magnitude of the parade is made evident by the fact that it will be in six long divisions, and one of the problems which has arisen is to obtain enough marching bands of music for it. Roy Mendoza, chairman of the commit- Republicans Seek A Million Votes Intensive Campaign to Urge Southern Californian's to Go To Poles on Nov. 4 With its objective more than 1,000,000 votes for the Rolph-Merriam state ticket, the Republican state committee for the nine Southern California counties will conduct an intensive campaign to persuade all citizens to cast ballots in the general election on Nov. 4, according to Louis B. Mayer, first vice chairman of the committee. Civic societies, chambers of commerce and other such bodies throughout this section of the state will be asked to cooperate in the drive, urging all voters, irrespective or political affiliation, to exercise their suffrage rights, Mr. Mayer stated. Mrs. O. P. Clark, Republican national committeewoman for California, and Mrs. Florence Collins Porter, dean of the Republican women in the Southland, have assumed charge of the women's division of the G. O. P. campaign and will aid in the "Get Out The Vote" movement, Mr. Mayer said. Republican state committee headquarters for Southern California have established at the Alexandria hotel in Los Angeles with Mendel B. Silberberg in charge as campaign director, and J. L. Matthews, Covina, as headquarters director. The campaign for the Republican state ticket, headed by Mayor James Rolph, Jr., San Francisco, nominee for governor, and Senator Frank F. Merriam, Long Beach, nominee for lieutenant governor, and for the Republican congressional candidates, will be conducted from the Los Angeles headquarters in cooperation with the various county committees. County committees will have charge of the campaigns for party legislative candidates in their respective counties. Bond Issues Sold For Santiago Dam Preliminary Steps Being Taken That Construction Work May Begin Early Next Year Bond issues amounting to a total of $400,000, the money to be used for the construction of a storage dam on Santiago creek, above the Orange County Park, have been disposed of to the First National Banks of Santa Ana and of Orange, which bid par for them.

The committees have made a rule that no autos will not be premitted in the parade unless the cars are decorated. The magnitude of the parade is made evident by the fact that it will be in six long divisions, and one of the problems which has arisen is to obtain enough marching bands of music for it. Roy Mendoza, chairman of the committee on music, has been allowed $250 with which to employ bands and to meet the expenses of entertaining musical organizatolns which will not ask for pay for their services. O. H. Renner, chairman of the finance committee, reported that funds amounting to $1,115 are in sight with which to meet the expenses of the festival. Anaheim business men have subscribed $715 and the City Council has voted $400. Chief of Police James S. Bouldin has charge of plans for policing the parade, with officers from his own force and with 30 members of the 20-30 club assisting. Warning will during the afternoon before the parade moves be given to autoists to move their cars from certain street blocks before a certain hour, so that the parade may move without confusion and so that spectators may see the pageant without views from the curb being obstructed. William Waillop reported that a large number of norms have been promised. Other committees reported their plans are well advanced for dancing in the streets and for other entertainment in which the rosters will indulge after the parade. A decorating firm has receive permission to open a store in Anaheim where business men may lease decorative material both for the Hallowe'en and Armistice Day celebrations, and where decorators may be employed. Lotus H. Loudon, president of the Chamber of Commerce, said that a stipulation had been made that any materials for the decorating might be purchased outright from Anaheim dealers, following the Chamber's policy of keeping Anaheim money in circulation at home.

Each irrigation district voted a bond issue of $200,000 to meet the cost of the dam which will be built on a site near the "fourth crossing." The sale of the bonds clears the way for awarding the construction contract soon after January 1. It is the intention to complete the dam in time to impound the flow from the winters rains during the season of 1931-32. The project is being financed under a joint agreement with the Irvine company which provides that the water companies are each to pay one-quarter of the cost and the Irvine company the remaining half. The water companies are in return each to receive a quarter of the stored water while the Irvine company receives half. However, the normal summer flow of the stream is to be retained by the water companies. Preliminary preparations for drawing the plans are now being made at the site of the dam by Al Kempkey, San Francisco engineer, who is drilling and exploring the bed rock. GURGLING PARTY HELD A "gurgling party," with Chief of Police Bouldin as pourer, was held in the court outside the city hall Saturday morning, when hootch captured by his officers gurgled out of bottles into the sewer.
