Tri-Counties Reforestation Body Asks Rolph To Supply Shoes for Unemployed Committee Reviews Work in National Forests; Lecturer Claims No Such Thing as "Light Burning," Shows Results of Fires By Use of Slide Lantern; Orange County Gets Meeting The members of the Tri-Counties reforestation committee met in regular session at the Casa Loma hotel, Redlands, May 12, where the chairman reported that a special committee, appointed at the last meeting of the general committee, had interviewed Governor Rolph with reference to provide clothing and shoes for the men in the unemployment camps. This was urged on behalf of these men to put them on something of an equality with men in prison camps who secure food and lodging, and in addition clothing, and at that time 35c per day. The governor held that there was a responsibility on the state for the treatment of the prisoners and that the state had no funds with which to provide more than food and clothing for men in the unemployment camps, although it is understood that later some provision was made for providing shoes and necessary clothing. Chairman Francis Cuttle quoted an article from the San Francisco Chronicle of March 22, 1922, in which it said: "With the closing of the camps California will have completed a new experiment in unemployment relief. Many people believe the system to have been the one practical method of solving the serious problem of caring for transient indigents." "Thousands of men have been well cared for, at low cost, and at the same time have been doing work of great benefit to the state. Crime has been reduced in direct proportion to the number of men sent to the camps." The chairman also reported that Senators Johnson and Sheeridge and Mr. Swing had all agreed that the matter of federal funds for protection of our watershed would have their careful attention. Denounces Fear In Bank Program American Legion Official Says Faith and Confidence Needed Emphasizing his belief that there is very little wrong with our country or with the economic and governmental set-up that could not and cannot be cured by a revival of confidence. Bud Gearhardt, past department commander of the American Legion, speaking on the Bank of America's "Back to Good Times" program, asked his audience Saturday evening, to reach confidence denounce fear, promote faith and condemn timidity. "The trouble is that hundreds of thousands of us, true and loyal Americans that we are, are so overwhelmed with fear that we will not risk five cents worth of faith in an investment which would, with certainty, bring us an enormous return, not only in dollars, but in our national well being," said Gearhardt. "Faith and confidence alone will start the people who have money to spending that money on things that they need. The resumption of normal spending will bring the resumption of normal business conditions. The resumption of normal buying will start the wheels in idle factories turning again and start the flow of that stream of dollars which is so essential to normal business activity." With confidence restored, conditions "Thousands of men have been well cared for, at low cost, and at the same time have been doing work of great benefit to the state. Crime has been reduced in direct proportion to the number of men sent to the camps." The chairman also reported that Senators Johnson and Sheeridge and Mr. Swing had all agreed that the matter of federal funds for protection of our watershed would have their careful attention. The chairman also reported that progress was being made in adjusting the claim of the Southern Pacific Railway company to lands in the San Bernardino and Cleveland National forests, although no specific plan for solving this matter had yet been worked out. C. J. Kraebel of the California forest experiment station, in charge of the Devil canyon work, gave a most interesting and instructive lantern slide lecture on the progress of the work and the bad effects of burning watershed cover. He insisted that very definite experiments had shown that there is no such thing as "light-burning"; either the entire area will be burned over, or else fire set will only burn very small portions, depending on the condition of the brush at the time the fire is set. He stated that from 15 to 30 times as much runoff had been measured from burned-over area as that coming from areas that have not been burned, with erosion in comparatively the same proportions. The committee adjourned to meet in Orange county in October. Cromwell Selects His Intercollegiate Team University of Southern California track and field athletes will go to Berkeley 32 strong this week-end to attempt to win the fourth straight victory for Troy in the California Intercollegiate championships. Trojan entries for the meet were named today by Coach Dean Cromwell. Frank Wykoff, Southern California's injured sprinter, will positively not run the 220 and also will probably have to stay out of the 100-yard dash. He has been unable to train except for occasional light jogging since the Southern California-Stanford meet April 30, and it is likely that his injured back will force him to continue to refrain from sprinting for another two weeks. Doubling up of Cliff Halstead and Earl Callahan in the mile and two-mile was announced as a possibility for the meet by Coach Cromwell. Callahan may run as a pace setter for Halstead in the mile in an attempt to force the latter to break his own California Intercollegiate record of 4:23.8. Halstead Tells Truth, So Hat Awarded to Sheriff Because he told the truth about a prisoner, Sheriff Logan Jackson of Orange county this week possesses a big black hat—the gift of San Quentin Prisoner Floyd Glesendorfer. Convicted of stealing a cow, Giesendorfer was escorted to prison recently by Deputy Sheriff Fred Humiston. The prisoner, whose insanity defense proved futile at a second trial, sent the expensive head-dress back to the sheriff by the deputy who handed it to his chief Monday. The sheriff testified for the prosecution. Union Service Plan Complete Rev. Ledbetter Will Hold First Meeting; Pastors Will Furnish Music Rev. Virgil K. Ledbetter, pastor of the First Calvary church and president of the Anaheim Ministerial union, will have charge of the first of a series of union church services to be held at the city park, beginning Sunday evening.

Doubling up of Cliff Halstead and Earl Callahan in the mile and two-mile was announced as a possibility for the meet by Coach Cromwell. Callahan may run as a pace setter for Halstead in the mile in an attempt to force the latter to break his own California Intercollegiate record of 4:23.8. Halstead will run the two-mile if the Trojans are behind in the point score when this event is called. The Rev. C. H. S. Hunziker, pastor of Grace Lutheran church, is to speak July 10; the Rev.

Wilson of Colville, Wash., drives a Catalo, a cross between a Buffalo and Holstein, hitched to a cart, in trips about the state. Broad Jumped Jumps Into Baseball Fame Dick Barber, national intercollegiate broad jump champion and football star of the University of Southern California, has blossomed out in a new athletic hero role. In the finals of the Inter-fraternity indoor baseball league championships held over the week-end he pitched a no-run no-hit game to give his Kappa Sigma fraternity the title over the Sigma Phi Epsilon. Barber had a nip and tuck pitcher's battle with Hal Froney, frosh team hurler, and won out by a 1 to 0 score. Forney allowed only two singles, but one went for the winning run. The Huntington proved a petition asking that the amended to give state tidelands or mineral devise approved the pledge gave the Pacific Ltd., a 30-year front. The beach city meeting immediately made its decision protecting beach. A Study in Black and White The snow-white mare is Imp. Herodias, one of the best thoroughbreds in America. Her colt hasn't a name yet, but he's jet black and his father is the famous racer Blue Larkspur. They were photographed on W.R.Coe stock farm in the Kentucky Blue Grass.

The bonds mature, beginning in 1934 for the 1894 issue, and ending in 1963, when four issues, all of them voted in 1923, mature. For the next 30 years, residents of Anaheim will be paying on bonds already nine years old. Farm Advisor Expensive Under protection to person and property, another function of government that has been widened considerably in the past decade, the county is paying out $400,131.52 per year. The list shows the largest item of expense in this department is that for horticultural commissioner and farm advisor, which costs $116,281.89 per year. Only one other county in the state exceeds this expenditure per year, that being Los Angeles with about two-and-one-half millions of people, who pay much less in proportion to population than does Orange. Los Angeles spends $281,709.43 for this service; third in total costs. Tulare puts out $107,254.04; while Merced is fourth with $87,921.37. Protection to person and property for Orange county costs as follows: Sheriff $41,541.86 Constables 14,741.35 County Jail 43,899.41 County Recorder 38,895.84 Inspector Livestock.

A short play was presented by Sunday school children and at the close of the program refreshments of cake and fruit punch were served by Mrs. J. H. Hasty and her committee. The large birthday cake was cut by Mrs. D. Howard Dow. Mrs. Balch, who had charge of decorations, arranged a number of large framed pictures on the walls and old photograph albums were also displayed about the hall. Services at the church on Sunday were in observance of the anniversary and also of Whit Sunday. Rev. Dr. Byron Holley of Los Angeles was the speaker. Mrs. Victor Loly sang a solo and the choir gave special selections. On Saturday children of the parish celebrated the birthday with a party enjoying games and refreshments. Perhaps among the many who listen to the mellow tones of the old Episcopal church bell as it peals out its invitation to attend the worship of God there still are some who remember the heart interest story of its presentation to the church. From our old files of the Gazette in the issue of May 27, 1882 we copy the following item: The Memorial Bell While assisting in the decoration of the Episcopal church last December, Charles B. Balch accidently cut a deep gash in his wrist, severing an artery. He died from the effects of the wound a few days later. His father a resident of Boston has presented the church with a memorial bell, which was received on Thursday. As it weighs 1329 pounds, the tower in the church will have to be strengthened to sustain it, and its tones will probably not be heard for a week or two. It is made of pure bell metal, and it is judged it will be very sweet toned. The inscription reads: Ad Laudem Gloriamque Dei Omnipotentis Et in Memoriam CHARLES BUCKMINSTER BALCH Obit Ante Diem v Kalendas Januarius A.D. 1881 BURGLARS ROB STATION Burglars Sunday night entered the Tidelands Fight Breaks Out Again Huntington Beach City Council After Constitution Change At Fall Election Tidelands oil leasing agitation has broken out again. In spite of the tremendous victory of proposition No. 2 on the April 11 ballot which would prevent the state leasing tidelands for oil-drilling purposes, Huntington Beach city council Tuesday evening started a state-wide campaign for 150,000 signatures to assure submission of giving state tidelands to the city, which then could lease them to oil companies, as a proposition for voters to decide at the election this fall. Signatures must be secured by July 19, in order to meet filing requirements. The Huntington Beach council approved a petition signed by 803 voters asking that the state constitution be amended to give Huntington Beach state tidelands for recreational, harbor or mineral development. The council approved the petition and immediately gave the Pacific Exploration Company, Ltd., a 30-year lease on the ocean front. The beach city chamber of commerce, meeting immediately after the council had made its decision, adopted a resolution protesting drilling for oil on the beach. Is There a Bug In This Bill? (Continued on page 8) These communities are bearing their own burden, paying their own expenses and it is suggested that the counties of central California might do the same. Passes Buck to People The subject of the passage of an enabling act has been before the legislature for 10 years, and it is understood the body is now passing the buck to the people. Many of the legislators are opposed to the matter, but are getting it off their chest and are putting it up to the taxpayers of the state. If the enabling act should be provided for it will be followed by a bond issue of $160,000,000 which, if the district should unfortunately default, will be chargeable to the taxpayers of this state. It is hoped that a large attendance of taxpayers will go to the meeting and will give their views freely upon this important matter. The irrigation districts in Imperial county are in default upon their bonded indebtedness, and what the outcome of their troubles will be is very hard to imagine. But with water districts already defaulting, others might follow suit, and it is too much to ask those taxpayers who have already bonded themselves for millions upon millions of Anaheim, Galif., May 19, 1932 Summer Shows Nubilee Interest Continued from Page 1) Boy would come over me, but as time has paed there are sent chairs.

Mrs. Otstot Waives Right, Trial June 20 Trial of Mrs. Zermula Otstot of San Capistrano pleaded not guilty to the charge of manslaughter resulting from the death of Mrs. Juanita Lopez, when arraigned Friday morning before Superior Judge James L. Allen at Santa Ana. Trial was set for June 20 when Mrs. Otstot waived statutory rights to trial within 30 days. Mrs. Lopez was killed when an automobile claimed to have been driven by Mrs. Otstot struck Mrs. Lopez as she was wheeling a baby carriage along the road on the way back from a visit to her husband's grave. The baby was not injured. Central Exchange to Ship 74 Cars In Week Tentative schedules for this week call for 74 carloads of valencias to be shipped through the new Central Orange County Citrus Exchange, with headquarters in the S. Kraemer building on East Center street, District Manager A. H. Kirchman announced. Last week the exchange shipped 57 cars, but the pro-rating agreement called for larger quantities as the Tulare district fruit was practically out of the way. Sizes of fruit run from 216s to 288s Manager Kirchman said. Some houses are picking for size, making a wider difference in the normal handling of fruit.

"Exchange juice extractors now use many millions of boxes annually." Sunkist had not taken the two steps necessary to sell citrus fruits as beverages we would still be faced with calamity when contacted by a big crop of small sizes—or, for matter, a big crop of any sizes. When Sunkist first advertised 'drink an orange,' soda fountains and restaurants and sewives didn't respond. It was too much trouble to make orange juice with a lemon squeezer. Then Sunkist took the second step—the development of juice extracting devices for commercial and home use. The Sunkist Electric Juice Extractor was sponsored and perfected. First models sold at $102.75. Now, greatly improved, it costs $39.80. 65,000 have been sold. Sunkist canvassed glass manufacturers unaware was found who would gamble on a new reamer—big enough for oranges. 650,000 got on the market in 1916; over two million have been sold. Then in 1928 came Sunkist interior—an electric extractor for the home. Over 85,000 are in use. "These 'salaryless salesmen' now help sell many thousands of cars of oranges, lemons and grapefruit each year. It cost us growers nothing to place them in use. And wherever there is an extractor—in home, restaurant or soda fountain—the name 'Sunkist' is linked with quality and service, building preference for the Sunkist brand and helping us Exchange growers to get the highest returns for our crops."
