Registrations In State Heavy Shifts In Line-Up Are Caused By Presidential Election California's total registration for the August 30 primaries, to be held next Tuesday, is 2,665,830, a gain of 478,356. The biggest change shown in the registrations over those of 1930, a non-presidential year, is in the gain of democratic voters from 449,824 to 1,027,657, or 577,830 — more than double. The republicans showed only a slight drop, comparatively, with this year's registrations 101,981 below those of two years ago, or 1,497,432 as compared with 1,599,413. Shifts in this registration as compared with 1930 undoubtedly were caused in large measure by the presidential election this November. The state's electoral vote, through reapportionment, more than doubles from 13 it had four years ago, to 26 this year, therefore making this state a much more valuable prize in the presidential campaign. Comparative figures on the two registrations follow: | Party | Primary | Primary | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Republican | 1,497,432 | 1,599,413 | | Democratic | 1,027,657 | 449,824 | | Socialist | 14,696 | 10,682 | | Prohibition | 10,122 | 12,304 | | Liberty | 2,244 | ..... | | Declined to state | 112,998 | 114,940 | Total: 2,665,830 2,187,474 Odd Fellows and Rebekahs Picnic Members of the Anaheim Lodge, I.

After the picnic the group will enjoy dancing at the park pavilion. C. C. Chapman, Noted Dry Grower, Favors Collins "Father of Valencia Orange" Gives Unqualified endorsement of Sam L. Collins of district attorney, candidate for the republican nominee new nineteenth district of Orange. Riverside and Seven given recently in writing by Charles C. Chapman, K. Valencia Orange Industry," one of the best known thropists in California. Mr. Chapman, founder of California Christian College, widely known for his support of all moral causes, and for more than a score of years a leader in California republican councils, put the stamp of his approval on Collins and predicted his nomination and election. "I am pleased to endorse Sam Collins for the republican nomination for congress in the nineteenth district," said Chapman. "It is very necessary that the new area send to congress as its first representative a man who truly knows the needs of the three counties concerned. I know that Sam Collins does know the three counties thoroughly, having been schooled in Riverside and San Bernardino counties and having spent his mature years in the practice of law and in public office in Orange county. Need Protection "Our chief industry in this district is citrus. It is vital that we have on the job in Washington a man who understands the citrus business. Collins owns citrus property here, has worked in orchard and packing house, and knows orange culture from the ground to the market. He knows the value of the protective tariff to safeguard our markets from the influx of cheaply grown foreign products. The citrus growers of the district, many hundreds of whom I know personally, can safely vote for Collins, and I urge them to do so for their own interests." "Our next most important industry is the production of oil. Of late years we have been shown the absolute necessity of putting a tariff or levy on the importation of foreign oil. There is no sound reason why thousands of our home folks should..." Odd Fellows and Rebekahs Picnic Members of the Anaheim Lodge, I. O. O. F. and the Rebekahs and their families will hold a picnic, August 31, at 7 p.m. at the Irvine park. Secretary Harold Bircher announced this week. The lodge will serve coffee, sugar and cream. After the picnic the group will enjoy dancing at the park pavilion. Who Is the Independent Candidate for the State Senate "Nels Edwards is not controlled by anyone and I am well aware of his honesty and independence," said Congressman Phil Swing in a public meeting in Santa Ana. Who is the Able Candidate "Nels Edwards stands well within the first half dozen of the state's legislators," said A. J. McFadden, agricultural leader of Orange county. Who is the Experienced Candidate "By reason of his ability and attention to business culture from the ground to the market. He knows the value of the protective tariff to safeguard our markets from the influx of cheaply grown foreign products. The citrus growers of the district, many hundreds of whom I know personally, can safely vote for Collins, and I urge them to do so for their own interests. "Our next most important industry is the production of oil. Of late years we have been shown the absolute necessity of putting a tariff or levy on the importation of foreign oil. There is no sound reason why thousands of our home folks should go without jobs while the product of under paid, poorly fed foreigners is sent broadside over the nation. Collins will work and vote for a tariff on foreign oil, knowing that an adequate tariff on foreign importation will enable our local fields to compete with those of other nations, and that the reopening of our fields will mean the putting to work of a great number of men in this district. "In addition to these two items there are many other products of the nineteenth district which need protection, and I can assure my friends that Mr. Collins will do his utmost to see that they are taken care of." Cites Many Reasons "One of the most vital questions before America today is the spread of communistic propaganda and activities. Communists favor the abolition of all religion, the confiscation of property, and the utter destruction of the home. Even in this district, they have made an effort to gain a foothold. In their recent effort to undermine confidence in our banks by an insidious telephone campaign, it pleased me greatly that Collins, as district attorney, stepped into the breach and by sound, effective publicity put a stop to their campaign. Most of these communists are aliens, enjoying the benefits of our country while they strive to tear it down. They should be immediately sent back to their own lands and forever barred from our shores. Mr. Collins splendid record as a soldier in the great war; his leadership in the American Legion, and his steadfast stand for real Americanism are a guarantee of his support of such measures. "We are in the midst of a great economic crisis, and we look to our legislators to use every function of sound government to bring us relief. The first need is the reduction of the expense of government. While something was done in this regard by the last congress, it was only a beginning, and with the proper men on the job, a very great deal more can be accomplished. Mr. Collins has pledged himself to work and vote for sensible and drastic economy measures. "My friends know that I have always supported the prohibition laws and I am endorsing Mr. Collins with perfect confidence that if called upon to vote on the question he will always favor the retention of prohibition measures." Who is the Experienced Candidate "By reason of his ability and attention to business, he was accorded membership on the most important Senate committees," said Frank F. Merriam, Lieut.-Governor of California. Is it not common sense to entrust our affairs to one who knows? BEWARE of last minute smoke screen charges. Vote for Senator Nelson T.

Downing Burke’s Hand-Picked Man Is Answered In Forceful Style Before a large and enthusiastic crowd in Santa Ana last week, Senator Nelson T. Edwards, candidate for re-election, forcibly answered complaints by his opponent Clyde Downing, and sent those present away with the knowledge that the J. Frank Burke hand-picked candidate was in the dark on legislative questions. Edwards reviewed his stand on the two Sharkey measures presented before the state legislature. In addition, he told of Orange county's benefits from the Edwards bill on which he had labored several years for an equitable division of state highway mileage between the north and the south. The bill added 633 miles of highway to southern California, and directly benefitted Orange county through inclusion of the Santa Ana and Brea canyon roads. It is rapidly working toward a more equal division of roads which formerly went almost exclusively to man, stating that it is the lessons of life that we live for. He declared that many people are in sight of heaven all their lives, but lose because of indiscretion at the end.
