Foreign Trade Week At Anaheim Clubs
Speakers Will Be Heard at Rotary, Kiwanis and Lions Meetings Next Week
BIG WEEK OF EDUCATION
Sixty-Five Meetings Will Be Held In Fifty Cities
The most complete Foreign Trade Week program that has ever been prepared for the south part of the state has been announced by F. A. Sumpton executive chairman of the Foreign Trade Week committee for Southern California. Sixty-five meetings will be held in fifty Southern California cities, including ten major meetings scheduled for Los Angeles. Speakers well grounded in the subject of foreign trade have been provided for the programs of Foreign Trade Week, February 16 to 22, both for the major meetings and for those held in other Southern California cities by a speakers committee headed by Russell M. MacLennan, a director of the Advertising Club of Los Angeles. Three of these meetings will be held in Anaheim by the Rotary Club, Kiwanis Club and the Lions Club.
Foreign Trade Minded
Indications now point to an aggregate attendance of more than 500,000. This means that more than one-half million people in Southern California have become thoroughly "foreign trade minded," and is a safe indication that this added interest will be reflected in export gains in the next year.
The major meetings will start at 11 a.m. next Monday, February 16, with the formal opening of the International Commercial Museum in the Exhibit hall of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, featuring an elaborate exhibit of the Mexican Government transferred from the recent International

Women Are Faster Than Men
to records kept by Capt. H. Allen, head of the Los Missing Persons Bureau, who disappear are between ages of age, while more men then the ages of 35 and 44. Annual report for the fiscal ended revealed that 192 men 18 and 24 years of age, between 35 and 44 years, in Los Angeles. Number of adults officially missing was 2837. Of this were located. Under 18 years of age re-totaled 1725, with 1430 lost. Latives have failed to notice the bureau, many persons are still listed officially as missing when in reality they have been located. Capt. Allen said.
One of the greatest aids in locating missing persons is newspaper publicity. Allen said, "Tips" received from newspaper reporters who saw pictures or descriptions of persons sought have helped solve hundreds of baffling cases. Allen reported.
SALVATION ARMY MEETING
The annual advisors' conference of the Salvation Army will bring together more than 150 active workers of the Army and its advisory boards at Santa Ana on Feb. 20. Delegations from sixteen corps over Southern California will attend the sessions, to be held in Ebell hall.
BANK USES BLACK BLOOTERS
Black blotters to foil forgers is the latest device employed by the Crocker First National Bank of San Francisco. Following an unusual number of recent forgery attempts, detectives saw a man take several blotters from one of the public writing sites and leave the bank with them.
Upon examining the blotters scattered about the bank, the officers discovered that new contained the signatures of prominent depositors and inferred that by holding the blotters before a mirror the would-be forgers were able to make fairly accurate copies of the names.
Substitution of "forgery-proof" black, for the previously used lighter hued blotters, was immediately instituted.
