Sunday evening following a heart attack and whose funeral was held from the Backs, Terry and Campbell parlor Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, with Rabbi 7dgar F. Magnin of the B'Nai B'Rith congregation of Los Angeles officiating. Nephews Kurt Epstein, J. J. Spitzer, Alvin Asher, Herbert Anker, J. J. Rogers and Leslie Harris served as pall bearers. Burial was at Fairhaven cemetery, Santa Ana. While Mr. Falkenstein had not been in the best of health for several years, his heart attack and death Sunday was a sudden blow to his scores of friends and relatives in Orange county. Mr. Falkenstein suffered a severe heart attack early in the afternoon, then apparently was recovering when a relapse at 8 o'clock proved fatal. The body was taken to the funeral home where arrangements for the funeral were delayed pending arrival of a son.

Clive Leader Just before the close of the nineteenth century, Mr. Falkenstein arrived in Anaheim and opened a store at 124 Center street, where he thrived in business and established one of the most outstanding mercantile marts in the county. In the quarter of a century that he actively managed the store he also took a keen interest in civic projects and was instrumental in beginning the free concert programs for which Anaheim has gained renown. Mr. Falkenstein was a member of the local lodge of Masons, a charter member of the local Kiwanis club, vice-president of the Anaheim Building and Loan association, director of the Anaheim library board, and a director of the German-American Savings bank of Los Angeles. For many years he served as a director of the Kiwanis club, and as a director of the Anaheim chamber of commerce. The Kiwians Tuesday voted to attend ennasse the funeral of Mr. Falkenstein, while out of respect for the deceased, the library was closed for two hours Wednesday afternoon.

Fear Retarding World Progress It's up to the common people to overcome our present-day problems within the next 20 years, or our civilization will tumble to the rocks of paganism. This is the belief of Rev. Frank M. Dowling, retired minister, who addressed the Anaheim Lions club Friday noon on the topic of "Today's Problems." Rev. Dowling declared that communism, the greatest destructive force known, has over-awed the world, and that the psychological effect of this fear is to retard our best efforts. Program Chairman Frank Elliott introduced the speaker. The Damon-Pythias FRIENDSHIP—was so enduring that it has lasted through the ages as a symbol of highest unselfish devotion. Something akin to this same bond of friendliness exists between the Anaheim Gazette and its readers, some of whom have been subscribers for more than half a century. That kind of reader loyalty builds PRESTIGE that's invaluable to advertisers.

And, while the purpose of the amendment is to relieve the burden placed DUCK APPETITE EQUAL TO SNAIL ORANGE MENACE Snails infesting orchards in northern Orange county have met their Waterloo! For several months the crustaceans had their own way and figuratively "thumbed their noses" at all efforts of eradication, until Banker Ben Baxter noticed that mallard ducks had insatiable appetites. Are snails a delectable duck delicacy? Baxter wondered. He fenced off the four acres of small infested oranges on his ten-acre ranch and turned 50 mallard ducks loose with no food other than crustaceans. The snails promptly began to disappear and within six months practically all evidences of their habitat were removed. Dr. J. W. Harpster, Charles Browne and August Eltiste also found that mallard ducks' appetites satisfactorily matched the infesting proclivities of snails. Landlords Hit License Charge Petitions of approximately 40 owners of rental properties—apartment houses and courts—asking for repeal of the ordinance requiring payment of a $12 annual license fee, is being studied this week by members of the city council. Mrs. Inez W. Yeats acted as chairman of the committee of rental property. Joe Scholz New 20-30 President Thomas Kuchel Speaks on "The Federal Constitution" at Meeting "A hundred and forty years ago, the writers of our Constitution held to a doctrine of conservatism, and so fashioned an elaborate system of checks and balances in that document." Thomas Kuchel declared in an address before members of the 20-30 club Monday evening. By the trend of recent Supreme Court decisions, the speaker said that this doctrine needs to be replaced today by one of liberalism, unless we desire to see radicalism assert itself. Mr. Kuchel's address was one of the features of the meeting held in the Knights of Pythias hall Monday evening when Resident Manager Joe Scholz of the Union Oil company was installed as president of the 20-30 club, succeeding Earl Jackson, who was presiding officer at the rites. Other officers seated were: Vice-President Joe Chambers, Secretary Wally Walton, Treasurer Art Jensen, Sergeant-At-Arms Wilmer Troutman, and Directors Ray LaFont, Carl Wollenman, Dr. J. A. Wallace and Waldo Wilburn. Assistant Manager Etanley Trueblood of the Central Fruit Growers Exchange was welcomed as a new member, by transfer from Whittier. President Scholz will attend as delegate from Anaheim to the district five council meeting to be held Sunday at San Bernardino. Why the Support? What are the apparent reasons why the teachers are supporting the proposed amendment? In the first place, it increases the amount set aside for the teachers' salaries. The amount of this increase is small, but it continues in the constitution a guarantee of a fixed amount of money that must be set aside for salaries. It buttresses still more the teachers' jobs, with the probability that the state legislature itself might set and as logically might raise amounts of salaries to be paid. This still further would entrench our educators behind the state laws, into which they already have written many self-protective measures, such as the tenure law, which assures a life-time position to teachers who are employed three years in one school district. This law doesn't take into consideration decreased ability to teach, or adaptability, and under it a life-time teacher can be removed only for cause—which is mighty hard to prove. Why are the real estate associations supporting the amendment? Because they have been told that taxes on real property would be lessened, thus relieving the burden on real estate and encouraging more sales—which every property holder would appreciate. But the actual decrease is so slight that no benefits would arise; in addition, the amendment makes possible still greater taxation of real estate FOR SCHOOL PURPOSES. Study the Costs Why are the farm bureau officials supporting the measure? Because they, like the real estate men, are standing in their own light when it comes to a true understanding of the section of school monies to the state and WRITING INTO THE STATE CONSTITUTION PROGRESSIVE FIXED CHARGES OVER WHICH THE DISTRICT BOARDSWOULD HAVE NO CONTROL. In an article two weeks ago, the Gazette pointed out how and why the gentlemen, sincere though they may be, who are sponsoring this proposed constitutional amendment are standing in their own light and ACTUALLY INCREASING INSTEAD OF DECREASING TAXES. And, while the purpose of the amendment is to relieve the burden placed on real estate, the actual effect doesn't relieve to any material extent taxation on real property, but it does increase the public school grab bag and puts it out of possible control of local districts. This problem was worked out on figures furnished by Dr. Waterman of the state department of education, who has carefully studied the problem, and whose figures, the California Real Estate association to the contrary, are the most authoritative obtainable at this time.

Mrs. Inez W. Yeats acted as chairman of the committee of rental property-owners who appeared before the council Tuesday night, stating that if the license fee were necessary city councils in 1927 and since would have required collection. The landlords objected to paying now, even though the ordinance had been on the books but not enforced, for several years. Reasons given were that property now bears a high tax, that little or no profit is realized in property of this type, and that the city doesn't need the revenues, anyway. In answering the petitioners, Mayor Fred Koesel stated that all lines of business appear to be in somewhat similar straights as the rental business, and that levying of a license appears to be the fairest method of raising funds.

From the CAPACITY OF LOCAL WATER LINES DOUBLED Few Changes In System Since 1929 Increases Emergency Supply Capacity of Anaheim’s water system in case of emergency fire fighting, as well as for general service to the public has been doubled in the last three years. This was the report submitted to the city council Tuesday evening by City Clerk John C. Price, following receipt of a report from the firm of Burns, McDonell and Smith, Los Angeles consulting engineers. The out-of-town firm made the survey, assisted by Superintendent V. W. Hannum of the water and power department. Twenty-nine hydrant tests were made, showing exceptionally satisfactory results, two exceptions. Those exceptions were the hydrant at Broadway and Citron, where the hydrant is within 100 feet of an eight-inch main, and the other at Lemon and La Verne, where a six-inch main has been laid 70 feet away. The engineers suggested that these two hydrants be inspected closely for an obstruction or partly-opened valve. The firm made an investigation of the Anaheim water system in February. Friends Rally to Support of Official Who is Making Good Friends of William Schumacher in this city endorse him for the important position of supervisor from the Third district because they recognize in him the one best man qualified to fulfill the duties of the office, now offering his services to the people. From the standpoint of experience and wise judgment he appeals to them as the man to be selected for this important task, feeling that as he has best conserved their interests in the past so will he continue to do in the future. To them the question is merely one of the selection of the most capable and efficient man for the job. He knows the details of county government better than any man in the district, and many of the betterments inaugurated in this county are in large part attributable to him. He was one of the first to see the advantages of our magnificent paved highway system and is to be doubted if any other section in the state has better roads than citizens of this district enjoy. He stands for economy in the expenditure of public money and taxpayers will during the coming year have one of the lowest tax rates among all the counties of the state. The large increase in population in recent years necessitated many items of public expenditure, but these are due for a sharp cut all along the line. The main idea actuating him as a public official is to save taxpayers' money, and this will be done during the coming fiscal year in a manner to meet the approval of property owners throughout the district. He is a self-made man, and stands in the forefront of the leading citizens of the state. He has received honors not only from his friends at home, but from other citizens throughout the counties of Southern California. His most recent achievement is the successful re-opening of the Southern County Bank and its three associate banking institutions at Buena Park, Cypress and El Monte, which, now have resources aggregating $1,325,-162.21, and deposits of $944,817.13. It is doubtful if there exists in the entire country another instance which speaks so well of the qualifications of a public man in dealing with the intricate finances of the people. He was recently the honored guest at a public dinner given by his friends and associates as a tribute to his masterful handling of this situation, and was highly complimented by the state bank commissioner, the representative of the Reconstruction Finance corporation and other bankers of Southern California. Indeed, so well pleased was the state bank commissary water and power department. Twenty-nine hydrant tests were made, showing exceptionally satisfactory results, two exceptions.

Lechner, state chaplain of the American Legion and one of the Southland's outstanding orators, has assumer direction of the speakers' bureau in the campaign organization of United States Senator Samuel M. Shortridge. During the past year Dr. Lechner has addressed more than 200 organizations in California, speaking to more than 100,000 people, his subject being Americanism and Citizenship. In accepting the chairmanship of the Shortridge bureau Dr. Lechner did so, he declared, because he feels that the public is interested today more than ever in the issues before the American people, and in the selection of men to high public office who serve best the interests of their constituents. "Senator Shortridge" said Dr. Lechner, "has, in my opinion, merited re-election. For 12 years he has zealously safeguarded the welfare of his constituents, always increasing the power and prestige of California in the deliberations of the senate. To supplant him now by a new man would be to sacrifice all the influence and seniority he has earned for this state." Phil A. Stanton Accident Victim Phil A.
