Study Outlets of State Honey Expert Now In New York To Compile Data to Help Beemen Word has just been received from the University of California by the farm advisor's office that Edwin C. Voorhies, college of agriculture, arrived in New York last week to study marketing outlets in the East for honey produced in California. This market study is being carried out jointly by the Pacific coast bee culture field station, United States department of agriculture, Davis; and the Giannini foundation of agricultural economics, college of agriculture, University of California. Professor Voorhies findings in eastern markets, together with a preliminary study made in the San Francisco and Los Angeles markets, will, it is anticipated, have a close bearing on marketing practices of California honey producers. Included in Voorhies' study are investigations of varieties, grades, standards, size and character of containers, labels, brands, prices, seasonal demands, and other factors upon which consumer demand depends. Recommendations for improving selling methods will be incorporated in Professor Voorhies' report, which will be summarized upon completion of the study and made available to the honey producers of the state. Farm Advisor Wahlberg is asking Professor Voorhies to meet with the Orange county beekeepers the next time he comes to Southern California. Fire Hazards Close Some Forest Roads Due to extreme fire hazards in the national forests, orders have just been issued by Regional Forester Show to close certain areas in some of the pa- COMMODITIES— A hundred and fifty years ago a store in Albany advertised that it had for sale, "Tammies, half-thicks, persians and pelongs, blue sagatha and red bunts, ticklenburghs and black everlastings, and handkerchiefs known under the names of bandanoe, lungee, romale, culgee, puttical and silk stetersoy." Who today knows what any of these commodities was? I wonder if historians 150 years from now, looking over such of our newspaper files as have not been destroyed by time, will wonder what sort of things Americans of 1932 wore, which we advertised as step-ins, three-in ones, celanese, panties, and woolies. Those are just a few words I happened to catch in looking over advertisements in today's paper. SALARIES— Senators and members of Congress who have been making a gallant fight against government salary reductions which would reduce their own $10,000-a-year stipends, might be interested in reading the newspapers of the year 1789, the year when our present form of government began and George Washington was first inaugurated President. A Boston newspaper started a loud cry of protest against the salaries paid to members of Congress. They received the enormous stipend of $6 a day, and the Speaker of the House got $12. That, according to the public opinion of the time, was twice as much as they were worth. O. L. Cranfelt, a mining reports that he found at miles long and nearly as wide all the indications are that more gold readily and cheaply than in any mining district has ever been developed in history. If this proves true and feasible for foreigners to the new gold field, the invitition will be a great enlargement world's money supply with an increase of commodity price new spurt of prosperity. The actly what has followed on gold strike in the past. One of the important causes of the present economic distress is the fall gold supply to keep pace with creasing demand for money based upon gold. HORSES— Horses are coming back more rapidly than at any time the war. Farmers are not to the old horse and buggy horses to haul commodities markets, but they are fine year, that the good old reliance is a more economical source for plowing and general use than the motorized tractor-money to buy gasoline and farm can raise enough fodder necessary horses. Up in my country where many of my farmer neighbors owned a horse for years, the active horse market. Horse could have been bought for $a couple of years ago now $150 to $200 each. FLAG— Historians have finally de Betsy Ross did not design the United States. The thirteen stripes, according to researches, was designed by ton himself, when he took care of Colonial troops at Canal July, 1775, although it was over his headquarters until 1776.

Fire Hazards Close Some Forest Roads Due to extreme fire hazards in the national forests, orders have just been issued by Regional Forester Show to close certain areas in some of the national forests. In the Angeles national forest the San Gabriel canyon is closed to overnight camping except under permit. The Ralston divide road on the Eldorado national forest is closed to vehicular travel. Closed to all except under permit are portions of the Cajon, Arrowhead, Mill Creek, and San Jacinto ranger districts and Banning canyon on the San Bernardino national forest. The Blue canyon area of the Sierra national forest and the Erickson ridge area of the California national forest are similarly closed. Visitors are advised to inquire for details of the closures from local forest officers before entering these national forests. A Boston newspaper started a loud cry of protest against the salaries paid to members of Congress. They received the enormous stipend of $6 a day, and the Speaker of the House got $12. That, according to the public opinion of the time, was twice as much as they were worth. Comparing anybody's expenditures today with those of even forty years ago, they seem wildly extravagant, but that is because the value of the dollar has changed materially in forty years, with the enormous additions to the world's gold supply that have been made in that time. GOLD—Just as news comes that the gold deposits in the Witwatersrand in South Africa, which in recent years has produced more than half of the world's annual supply of yellow metal, are beginning to "peter out," as miners picturesquely express it, comes the news of the discovery of what may turn out to be the world's greatest bonanza district in northern Manchuria. FLAG—Historians have finally devised Betsy Ross did not design the United States. The thirteenth stripes, according to researches, was designed by ton himself, when he took care of the Colonial troops at Carr July, 1775, although it was over his headquarters until 1776. It was called the "Graff and was the English flag crosses of St. George and Saints and thirteen stripes represent thirteen colonies. That flag was used a go the Revolution, and there we flag that had no stripes at a teen red stars in a circle field. Historians are casting d for the supposed resolution of tinental Congress of June adopting the Stars and Stripes cause they cannot find any the Stars and Stripes in May 1, 1795. If history is about things that happened nation's early days, how much can we place in the record of the history of ancient Rome?

May Gas Taxes Take Big Drop Income One-Fourth Less Than For Same Month Last Year Gasoline taxes for the month of May Star Chamber Sessions Hit John Kellénberger Jr., Tells Platform As Supervisor Candidate "In announcing my candidacy for supervisor from the third district, I want to assure the men and women of this district that my aim and object is to secure, insofar as possible, absolute justice in the handling-of county business. If we can secure a greater measure of justice, for city and country, for rich and poor, then this garden spot of the world will be a better place for all of us to live in," says John Kellénberger Jr., of Anaheim. "I do not like to see homes and farms taken away, or sold to the state for non-payment of taxes, and this requires that taxes must be reduced to the people's ability to pay. I believe government costs can be reduced 25 per cent without impairing necessary services and if elected it will be my aim and effort to bring about such reduction if at all possible. I am also opposed to excessive tax penalties and will use my efforts to reduce these delinquent penalties to a reasonable figure." "I am opposed to excessive use—or abuse—of the Mattoon act which gives tax creating boards the power to force in unnecessary public improvements, and if elected will not vote for special assessment or bond districts unless the people affected and who must pay the bill authorize the same. "Believing that the prosperity and business activity of cities in this district is dependent upon a prosperous 'back-country' and a prosperous farm population, which is not possible where excessive taxation abounds. I am in favor of cutting in half, or eliminating entirely, the 40-cent road tax which is now levied outside cities. This is no time to build a lot of new roads, and the $-cent good roads tax and the gasoline tax should be adequate to maintain our present road system. "I do not believe it is just that the cities of Anaheim and Fullerton should pay 70 per cent of the gasoline tax of the district, and receive only a very small percentage of these funds back for road work. I would, if elected, fight for a fair distribution of gas tax money, to the cities as well as to the urban communities, as desired by the city officials of Anaheim, Fullerton, Brea, La Habra, and Placentia. "Every citizen is a stockholder in the county government, and as such is entitled to full information regarding the public business. I would favor full and complete publicity an county affairs and be opposed to the secret May Gas Taxes Take Big Drop Income One-Fourth Less Than For Same Month Last Year Gasoline taxes for the month of May assessed against California motor vehicle fuel distributors amount to $3,384.566.39, marking a sharp decline in comparison with the corresponding total for May, 1931, which was $4,049.275.57. This was disclosed by John C. Corbett of San Francisco, member of the state board of equalization, when he announced completion of the gasoline assessment roll for last month. In an analysis of May returns from the tax on gasoline distributions at 36 per gallon, Corbett points out that the yield has declined 16.41 per cent in contrast with the same month a year ago. Monthly Fluctuations "If this decline should continue," said Corbett, "the effect on the revenues available for highway construction and maintenance in California would be serious. However, it must be borne in mind that these are figures for each month and that the distributions may have been affected by circumstances which are merely temporary. "For the first quarter of 1932 the tax was only $512,317.92 less than the corresponding period of last year marking a decrease of 5.14 per cent. The tax for April of this year was just $23,694.43 less than that of April a year ago, so that the loss was under one per cent. "These fluctuations indicate that the returns for one month alone may show substantial variation without establishing any decided trend in the tax for the course of a year. The market is apparently unsettled, but we hope that developments will maintain the productivity of the gasoline tax during 1932 without any substantial impairment." Wild Ducks Now Propagate Here Drying Up of Water Areas In Other Places Boosts State Wild Life While the wild duck question has become a matter of international concern, California seems to be favored by this favorite sport bird this year. Every citizen is a stockholder in the county government, and as such is entitled to full information regarding the public business. I would favor full and complete publicity an county affairs and be opposed to the secret 'huddles' and 'star chamber sessions' which seem to have become a habit with the county seat political crowd, with the connivance of the outside supervisors. If elected, I will be independent and a representative of all the people. Therefore all the people will be entitled to know what is being done, and not just a few financiers or politicians comprising the 'ring.' "The purchase of St. Ann's Inn for $145,000, and $50,000 worth of improvements in addition, should convince us of the folly of permitting county business to be handled in secret sessions. If you want such things continued, vote for somebody else, because I am in favor of keeping the public informed on all major projects and giving everyone a chance to be heard, either for or against. "Lastly, I believe it is about time Anaheim should have a supervisor at Santa Ana. I have lived in the district 36 years and during none of that time has Anaheim, the Mother Colony, had a member on the board. Fullerton had a supervisor some 25 years ago, but for 20 years the entire district has been represented from the district's edge. I would like to see a supervisor from the center of the district, and in all fairness, it seems to me Anaheim should have the honor this year. "I submit my candidacy upon the principles outlined above." ROUGH DETOURS Construction on Ventura boulevard, between Studio City and Calabasas, necessitates several detours which are very rough and dusty. In many places, only one-half of the road is open to traffic and careful driving is necessary. Wild Ducks Now Propagate Here Drying Up of Water Areas In Other Places Boosts State Wild Life While the wild duck question has become a matter of international concern, California seems to be favored by this favorite sport bird this year. Reports submitted to the state fish and game commission relative to nesting and hatching on the four state owned water-fowl refuges indicate the ducklings reared this season will exceed the output of any former year on the refuges. At Los Banos, Gray Lodge at Gridley, and Joice Island near Salsun the mallards, various varieties of teal, sprig and spoonbills have utilized every desirable nesting place, and for the past few days the young birds have appeared each sundown in increasing numbers. At the Imperial refuge on the Salton Sea, teal and tree ducks forsook their usual migratory tactics and settled down for the nesting season on the Colorado desert and the hatch has been heavy. Every care is given the ducks hatched on these areas, that they may be kept for further propagation, and encouraged to remain in this state instead of making their flights to more commonly used districts for nesting. Improved water conditions in this state, and the drying up or draining of large areas in other states on the coast are among the reasons given for the increased production of ducks this year. FRISCO WELCOMES SHRINERS To the tune of "Shriners You're Welcome, Make Yourself at Home," San Francisco are preparing to play host to several hundred thousand nobles of the Mystic Shrine, their wives and families, and many other visitors who will flock to the City by the Golden Gate, July 26, 27 and 28th, for one of the nation's merriest parties. Eyes of Sport Turn to West Expecting To See Old Olympics Record Shattered California Noted for Breaking of Marks, So Big Games This Summer Are Giving Dopsters Plenty of Opportunity to Speculate; Records of Past Are Reviewed By JACK ADAMS (Written specially for the Anaheim Gazette) Olympic track and field records should look quite different after the Olympic games to open July 3) in the Olympic stadium in Los Angeles, California and the breaking of records seems naturally to go together. There are seven world's track and field records in the record books which were made in California. During the Olympic games at Amsterdam in 1928, 15 new track and field records were made or equalled. How many of these will remain after the Los Angeles games? Let's look at some of the records made during the Amsterdam games. In the 100 meters' run, Percy Williams, of Canada; R. F. McAllister of the U. S. A., and J. E. London, of Great Britain, during trial heats were clocked officially at 10.6 seconds. Here it is interesting to recall that Charles W. Paddock, running at Redlands, Cal., in 1921, did the distance in 10.4 seconds. That is a world’s record and better than the Olympic record. Eddie Tolan, of the U. S. A., running in Stockholm in 1929, and again in Copenhagen the same year, equalled the 10.4 seconds time. Tolan and Paddock are joint holders of the world's record for the 100 meters' run. With the Runners Helmut Kornig of Germany, at Amsterdam equalled the Olympic record for the 200 meters' run with a time of 21.6 seconds. It should be remembered that an American, Roland A. Locke, holds the world's record for that distance. Running in Lincoln, Neb., in 1926, he covered the distance in 20.6 seconds. A record for the 860 meters' run was the discus a distance of 163 feet 8 inches. The Olympic record for theavelin throw is held by a Swede, E. H. Lundquist, who in 1928 set a record for 218 feet, 6 1-8 inches. Track and field athletes have their off days like everyone else. But with a break of luck the Los Angeles games should see many new records established. officials said, was useless. Employment Depends On Business Profits Every tourist visiting California, during 1931 made an average expenditure of $260 and 1,036,730 visitors came into Southern California, later touring the state, according to William May Garland, president of the Tenth Olympiad committee, speaking on the Bank of America's "Back to Good Times" program, Saturday evening. Besides the thousands of visitors to the Olympic games, other thousands will attend the many national conventions scheduled to meet in the various cities of California, during 1932. In speaking of business conditions, Mr. Garland said that he was glad to note a tendency to return to normal buying on the part of Californians, and that our merchants thereby were not finding it necessary to resort to senseless price cutting, selling below manufacturer's costs. "Prosperity and employment depend on the profits of business and industry," he said. "Every buyer and every seller should adopt the slogan of 'Buy as You Would Sell—Give and Obtain a Fair Profit.' Thus will the unemployed be returned to work, and we shall be well on our way back to 'Good Less Than Month Month of May Maria motor vehicle count to $3,384.

Returns from distributions at 36 cents out that the per cent in the month a year. With the Runners Helmut Kornig of Germany, at Amsterdam equalled the Olympic record for the 200 meters' run with a time of 21.6 seconds. It should be remembered that an American, Roland A. Locke, holds the world's record for that distance. Running in Lincoln, Neb., in 1926, he covered the distance in 20.6 seconds. A record for the 800 meters' run was made at Amsterdam in 1928. But it was made by an Englishman, D. G. A. Lowe, who did the distance in 1926. A new record for the 1500 meters' run was made by a Finn, H. E. Larva, who covered the distance in 3 m., 53 4-5 s. A new time was set up also at Amsterdam in the 10,000 meters' run, but not by an American, instead by that great athlete, Paavo Nurmi, of Finland. His time was 30m., 18 4-5 s. It wasn't an American who established in 1928 the new record for the 110 meter hurdles. It was a South African, Weightman-Smith. His time, made during a trial heat, was 14 m., 3-5 s. In Field Events The Olympic record for the running broad jump was made by an American in Amsterdam in 1928. The record holder for the event is Edward B. Hamm. He jumped 25 feet. 4 3-4 inches. The Olympic record for the pole vault is also held by an American, Sabin W. Carr, who in Amsterdam cleared the bar at 13 feet. 9 3-8 inches. Now 13 feet. 9 3-8 inches is high to be sure but in California they have been known to vault higher. The world's record for the pole vault is held by Lee Barnes, of the U. S. A., who in Fresno, Cal., in 1928, cleared the bar at 14 feet. 1 1-2 inches. When Dr. C. L. Houser threw the discus at Amsterdam a distance of 155 feet, 2 15-16 inches, he set up a new Olympic Record. But contrast that record made at Palo Alto, Cal., in 1929. Mr. Garland said that he was glad to note a tendency to return to normal buying on the part of Californians, and that our merchants thereby were not finding it necessary to resort to senseless price cutting, selling below manufacturer's costs. "Prosperity and employment depend on the profits of business and industry," he said. "Every buyer and every seller should adopt the slogan of 'Buy as You Would Sell—Give and Obtain a Fair Profit.' Thus will the unemployed be returned to work, and we shall be well on our way back to 'Good Times.'"
