There will be a basket luncheon at noon, with coffee, sugar and cream furnished by the walnut growers' department of the Ventura county farm bureau. The afternoon's program will be in the field. The key-note subject will be "Keeping Walnut Orchards Young." In this program an effort will be made to demonstrate the factors resulting in long lived orchards. The program for the day is announced by Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg to be as follows: 10:00 A. M.—"Changing Cultural Practices in Ventura County Walnut Orchards." Vincent F. Blanchard, farm advisor, Ventura Co. "What the radio has accomplished in Selling California Products." Fred W. Reed, advertising manager, California Fruit Growers' exchange, San Francisco.

Webber, sales manager. 12:00 N. — Basket Lunch—Coffee, sugar and cream to be furnished by the walnut growers department of the Ventura county farm bureau. 1:30 P. M. — Subject: "Keeping Walnut Growers' Field Day" Shortridge Tells Stand On National Issues During Talk at Annapolis Work for Resubmitting 18th Amendment hasn't been determined. Senator Samuel for re-election, stated in his address before a group club last Thursday afternoon while making a jaunt. But the question or retaining the prohibition law is particular effect upon the individual industry as much as a right of the people to change their constitution, in the opinion of the senator. For that reason, Shortridge claims that he will vote for resubmission of the prohibition issue in December, when the question undoubtedly will come before the senate. The framers of the United States constitution foresaw the need for direct control of the constitution by the voters, thus making provision for changes or alteration whenever the electorate deemed advisable. The senator in no case wants the return of the saloon. Other issues upon which Shortridge touched, and his stand on them were as follows: County Solvent Depression: "Our nation has been in the dark valley of depression, but I feel warranted in believing and saying that the light is breaking—that we are on the upgrade." Finance: "Our nation is solvent; California is solvent. Enlarged powers of the reconstruction finance corporation will enable that corporation to assist the several states as states in relieving distress and furnishing employment and will directly aid self-liquidizing enterprises of a public nature. It will directly aid self-liquidizing enterprises of a public nature. It will hasten return of prosperity in city and on farm. The home loan bank bill will be a blessing to our people, preventing foreclosure and loss of homes—saving them for fathers, mothers and their loved ones." Revenue: The new revenue bills will preserve the nations credit — balance the budget." Secretaries Study Varied Proposals Secretaries of the various chambers of commerce in Orange county in a meeting at Santa Ana Monday evening discussed the proposal of some day promoting a city-county form of government in order to eliminate overhead expense and thus reduce taxes alike for city and rural resident. One of the ways of reducing the taxes would be by eliminating many of the more than 100 tax-fixing bodies now in the county, it was pointed out. Secretary George Raymer of the Santa Ana chamber of commerce said that persons who attended the trip sponsored by the Associated Chambers of Commerce several years ago to Mexico, recently suggested that the same group sponsor a trip to the world's fair in Chicago in 1933. The proposed trip would permit many side trips, and would go via the northern California scenic route, returning through Canada. Boost $1 Oil Tariff Oil: "The new measure protects to some extent, but not enough, the oil industry from ruinous competition. I have introduced and will urge passage of a bill giving the oil industry protection of $1 per barrel on crude petroleum and 50 per cent ad valorem on certain of its by-products." Taxes: "I am in favor of a general sales tax instead of placing that burden on a few industries, in order to raise money to keep the country financially sound." Immigration: "I am opposed to Fillipino immigration into California and the United States, as I have been and am opposed to all Asiatic-Oriental immigration into our country." Opposses Debt Cancellation Philippines: "I am in favor of granting the Philippines their independence, which they want. It may be necessary to wait 15 or 20 years before granting this, but in the meantime I think it best that we stop immigration to this country from that source. My colleagues and I stopped Japanese immigration, and I have introduced a bill to stop Philippine immigration." Debts: "I am opposed to cancellation of debts legally and morally due from foreign nations. They owe us $11,000,000,000, which we are lending them at a lower rate of interest then we are paying on our bonds on which we borrowed the money." Politics: "I am a republican. I have been a republican all my life. I ask the support of all republican men and women in California." Champion Rapid Overlooked C. N. P. A. Service Goodway of Linden, Calif. If there had been a Olympiad events Miss Goodway would certainly contend for she holds the honor of winning the at Los Angeles County Fair in Pomona against Goodway is preparing to defend her title against a fall. Three Millions In Forest Work Government Appropriates Big Sum for California Projects Under the terms of the emergency relief and regular appropriation bills passed by the last congress, $3,584,615 will be spent this fiscal year in the national forests o. California for the construction and improvement of leased highways, roads, trails, bridges and fire prevention projects, according to report of S. B. Snow, chief of the California region, United States forest service. This is the largest sum ever received in one year by the local forest service for road and improvement work, and will furnish employment for large numbers of men. Of the total federal allotment to the national forests of California, $1,458,566 comes from the emergency relief bill signed by President Hoover on July 21, which contained a $10,000,000 item to be expended in the national forests throughout the country for unemployment relief. The balance, $2,126,049, is a part of the regular department of agriculture appropriation for road and trail construction and protection improvements in the national forests. Major roads within the national forests of California that form part of the standard state and county highway system, will receive $2,347,672, and an additional $1,236,943 will be expended on minor national forest roads, trails, firebreaks and dother protection improvements. "The U. S. forest service," said Mr. Show, "welcomes the opportunity to out of work. We are also planning to give substantial aid to those who are continue our cooperation with the California unemployment commission in the establishment of labor camps in or near the national forests as was done last winter."

This is a picturesque celebration, as it revives the romance and customs of the time when Spain ruled Alta California. During "Old Spanish Days," Santa Barbara tosses aside its workaday routine and takes on carefree, romantic days of early California. The city is in gala mood and the people don fiesta attire. Several thousand residents participate in the numerous plays, pageants, parades, folk dancing and other entertainments. On the evening before the official opening of the fiesta, the patres at historic Mission Santa Barbara will give a public reception to usher in the festivities. As the last golden rays of the sun disappear and nightfall approaches, the mission bells will peal their message of welcome. Enormous red flares, visible for miles about, will light the church and towers. As of old, a padre will invite all to join in the merrymaking. The mission choir will sing and a hundred or more gayly costumed revelers will render the folk dances of Old Spain. The following three days of the Fiesta are a lovely series of pageants, plays and colorful parades. There are strolling choruses and general merrymaking to intrigue the spectator.

MOTOR TRANSIT LINES 217 South Los Angeles Street Phone 3404 J. H.Harrington, Agt. Bicycle Bandit Sought By Cops Orange county's officers of the law this week concentrated on finding a bicycle bandit. The sheriff's office was in possession of imprints of the bandit's bicycle tires, and had certain other information which they wanted to check over with any suspects caught. Last Thursday at 5 a.m., the bicycle bandit appeared at the home of Dr. J. W. Harpster on Nursery road and loudly knocked until the door was opened by Dr. Harpster. The masked bandit shoved a shotgun out and demanded: "Stick 'em up!" Dr. Harpster slammed the door and retreated toward the rear where Employee Edward Hermance, 23 who occupies quarters in the rear of the house, was coming forward to answer the loud knocking at the door. Hermance went out to survey the yard and the bandit, evidently hiding behind shrubbery, fired several bullets landing in the young man's back. Hermance wasn't severely injured. The bullets were removed, and after a short time in his quarters as a precaution, he was believed out of all danger. The bicycle bandit's footprints were traced to the highway where evidence of his bicycle transportation were found. 5 Boys Pay 30 Cents Each Toward Chicken Judge Frank Tausch last week had the unpleasant task of severally reprimanding five boys who admitted stealing a chicken from J.
