Anaheim Chamber Favors Postponement of Government Debts Due Uncle Sam; Opposes Five Banking Recommendations
Takes Action On Questionnaire Sent Out By United States Chamber of Commerce, Which is Getting Country-Wide Opinions On Measures Which Nation Faces
Anaheim's chamber of commerce members this week stand committed to support of five proposals of the United States chamber of commerce referendum regarding payment of debts owed the United States, and in favor of nine out of 14 proposals for legislation providing regulation of group banking, with conditions and restrictions recommended by the committee.
The legislative committee of the chamber on January 18 made known its recommendations, upon which the chamber acted as follows:
PAYMENT OF DEBTS
(All approved)
1. Further postponement of payments on the government debts due the United States should be authorized by Congress on a temporary basis in case of those debtor countries showing inability to make present payments.
2. Congress should give authority for negotiation of a modified agreement that will promote the best interests of the United States upon a debtor country showing material changes in the bases of its existing debt agreement with the United States.
3. Any modification of an existing debt agreement should be conditioned upon definite provisions for such treatment of our trade by the debtor country as will assure access of American goods to its markets on fair competitive terms.
4. Modification of an existing debt agreement should be conditioned upon reduction on expenditures for armament.
5. Proposals for the United States to cancel war debts owed by other countries should be rejected.
BANKING MEASURES
1. Federal reserve banks should expressly authorized to deny rediscounts to a member bank of the reserve system on a find the bank's lending operations are unsound; Favored.
tions of the banks without a guarantee system; Opposed.
10. Development of agencies in the federal reserve system for the conduct of open-market operations should be left to administrative determination; Favored.
11. Membership of the secretary of the treasury upon the federal reserve board should be terminated; Favored.
12. The provisions of the Glass-Steagall act, permitting reserve banks to issue federal reserve notes with a minimum cover of 40 per cent in gold and the remainder in obligations of the federal government, should be extended another year, to March 3, 1934; Favored.
13. There should be immediate repeal of the emergency power given to reserve banks to make direct loans to business enterprises; Opposed.
14. There should be legislation requiring early retirement of national bank currency upon government bonds to which, as an emergency measure, the circulation privilege was given in July, 1932; Opposed.
Demand Growing For "Food Fruit"
Demand Growing For “Food Fruit”
Avocado Growers Told Demand Increased 400% in Four Years; Huge Crop Increases
Despite calavo-avocado tonnage increasing seven times in the last three years, and while predicted to increase over today’s large tonnage another eight times in the next seven or eight years, the California calavo-avocado industry sees no “overproduction problem” in the future if advertising and cooperative marketing are continued, declared George B. Hodgkin, general manager of the Calavo Growers in California, in Los Angeles Friday at the calavo growers’ annual meeting.
Popularity of the more recently developed calavo type of this “food fruit” has increased in “demand” 400 percent in the last four years, when based on commodity price levels, despite the rapid tonnage increase and general economic conditions, Mr. Hodgkin pointed out. There is a rapidly increasing proportion of the crop coming from the calavo type of quality varieties, rising to 63 percent of all tonnage handled last year, he said.
If the popularity of the calavo and avocado spreads throughout the nation as it has recently in California, then calavo-avocado growers have no worries concerning overproduction, for Los Angeles alone consumed 91 carloads of fruit last year while the San Francisco-Central California area consumed 37 carloads packed by the calavo growers’ exchange. Fifty carloads were sent east last year, while others are already east-bound this season.
This industry is yet so young that little over half of the 7500 acres of the near 2,000 member-owned groves in the association have as yet started to bear. Mr. Hodgkin estimated that from 3,-700,000 pounds handled approximately last year, the exchange will handle about 7,000,000 pounds next year, some 16,000,000 in 1937, and before ten years pass about 30,000,000 pounds, to come from the present member acreage, according to the estimate of average production of trees by age.
Carl V. Newman, Santa Ana, was re-elected president of the Calavo Growers’ Exchange; Charles L. Lewis, Puente, first vice-president; A. F. Yaggy, Santa Barbara, second vice-president; George

"Love" Is Subject of Lesson-Sermon
The Christian Science Lesson-Sermon on Sunday will be on the subject "Love." The Golden Text is I John 4:7: "Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God." The same Lesson-Sermon is delivered in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass.
Among the Scriptural citations in the Lesson-Sermon are these verses from the Twenty-third Psalm: "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. . . . Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."
One of the correlative selections from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, states, "The great fact that God lovingly governs all, never punishing aught but sin, is your standpoint, from which to advance and destroy the human fear of sickness."

313 School Children Killed in Automobile Accidents During 1932; Decrease of 26.7%
Chief Cato's Report Shows Effectiveness of Organized Safety Education Work and School Bus Control During Past Year; Motor Accidents in Which Children Injured Decrease
Organized safety education work and school bus control carried on in the schools of the state by the California highway patrol for the last two years were shown to have produced a sharp drop in motor vehicle accidents and deaths among school children. A report filed with E. Raymond Cato, chief of the patrol, by the bureau of education and statistics, shows a decrease of 12 deaths among school children for the first eleven months of 1932 as compared with the same period of 1931. The number killed during the 1932 period was 313, a decrease of 26.7 percent.
Motor accidents in which children figured decreased 473 or 4.9 percent during the period.
"Constant hammering on safety has been the policy in the campaign of the patrol," the report said.
A feature of the work, it was explained, has been the organization in the schools of junior traffic patrols composed of children themselves. These patrols assist in directing traffic during the crowded hours around school houses but their more important work is spreading "the gospel" of safety among their fellow students. In many districts patrolmen were assigned to the schools during certain hours for the purpose of instructing the junior patrolmen in their duties and in giving lectures on safety work.
The periodic examination of school buses and the cooperative arrangement worked out between the patrol and the state department of education for giving rigid examinations to all bus drivers were other steps cited as responsible for the lowered accident rate.
Incompetent drivers were weeded out by this process while dozens of school buses were repaired and put in a safe condition after examinations had proven them unsafe and dangerous.
A remarkably small number of school children were shown in the report to have figured in motor accidents on or near school grounds. A factor in this
Charles Rutledge On Retired Roll
Ill Health Forces Action; F. O. Merker Heads Gas Company's Local District
Charles E. Rutledge, district manager for the Southern Counties Gas company's Orange county district since 1926, has been placed on the retired list because of ill health, according to official report from the company's health office in Los Angeles. Mr. Rutledge vacancy has been filled by Fred O. Merker, former district manager for the company's Ventura district and who at one time served as a district executive under the retiring Orange county manager.
Mr. Rutledge's retirement comes after more than a quarter of a century in the gas utility business. He became associated with the Southern County Gas company in 1919 when the company took over the gas properties in San Barbara which were under the management of Mr. Rutledge. He retained the management of the properties under the new regime and held that position until 1926 when he was transferred to the company's Orange county district.
Active for many years in the civil and industrial life of Santa Ana and Orange county, Mr. Rutledge served as president of the Santa Ana chamber of commerce.

the rules of the senate, has prevented that public opinion from finding its long desired expression.
"Finally, we should continue and multiply our contacts and our cooperation with the League of Nations itself. We are not members of that body, but the work which it is doing is work which vitally affects our interests and which accords with our ideals. In so new and so difficult a field, success can not be achieved in a day nor perfection reached in a twelvemonth. Steps toward our goal must oftentimes be slow, unsteady and even wandering, but the high and fine goal is there, the appeal to us each and all lis insistent, continuous and unanswerable.
Call to Action
"My fellow Americans, this is our job. We may not wait for President or congress or for governors or state legislatures. Each and every one of these is servant of public opinion. It is your business and mine quickly, to mold and to express public opinion so that our official representatives in government will act, and act in the only ways that are open to us, if we really and earnestly desire more firmly to establish and to protect the peace of the world and more speedily to lift our own people out of the depths of depression into which they have been plunged.
"Then and only then will the farmer and the manufacturer find markets for their products; then and only then will railways have adequate freight to carry; then and only then will unemployment be relieved; then and only then will satisfaction and confidence begin to displace our nation-wide distress and fear."
Community Chorus Sponsored by Elks
First rehearsal of the projected Anaheim civic chorus, which is sponsored by Anaheim Elks club under the direction of Madame Rosemary Rose o Beverly Hills, will be held at the Elk club Monday evening at 7:30 o'clock.
Plans for the chorus were discussed at a meeting last Monday evening, when tentative arrangements call for 40 men's and 60 women's voices to present Haydn's "The Creation" late in March at the high school auditorium. While a large number already have signed, applications from interested persons in Anaheim and nearby communities are still being received.
Incompetent drivers were weeded out by this process while dozens of school buses were repaired and put in a safe condition after examinations had proven them unsafe and dangerous.
A remarkably small number of school children were shown in the report to have figured in motor accidents on or near school grounds. A factor in this result was declared to have been the insistence of the patrol that drivers observe the speed limit when passing through school zones.
Expressing pleasure over the outcome of the work, Chief Cato said it would be continued with undiminished vigor.
Citrus Insects Listed In Book
Farm Advisor Has Copies For Persons Desiring Them; Pest Control Stressed
To bring the subject of citrus insect control in California up to date, as well as to replace the information contained in earlier bulletins, the University of California has just published a new bulletin on the biology and control of citrus insects and mites, according to Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg. The author of the publication is H. J. Quayle, professor of entomology in the graduate school of tropical agriculture and entomologist in the citrus experiment station.
In addition to the life histories of and control measures for the various citrus insects and mites, the new publication, agricultural experiment station bulletin No. 542, contains an entomological key by means of which citrus-infesting pests can be identified. "It is hoped," says Professor Quayle, "that this bulletin will enable growers to become better acquainted with pests, and stimulate a more active interest in handling pests on their own properties."
Among the insects and mites discussed by Professor Quayle are the following: Citrus red spider, six-spotted mite, silver or rust mite, fork-tailed katydid, angular-winged katydid, citrus thrips, greenhouse thrips; melong or cotton aphid, citrus aphid, black citrus aprid, red scale, yellow scale, dictyospermum scale, purple scale, glover's or long scale, greedy scale, ivy or oleander scale, black scale, citricola scale, soft brown scale, cottony cushion scale, mealybugs, citrus white fly, a western leaf-footed plant bug. Fuller's rose bushes and the cooperative arrangement worked out between the patrol and the state department of education for giving rigid examinations to all bus drivers were other steps cited as responsible for the lowered accident rate.
Incompetent drivers were weeded out by this process while dozens of school buses were repaired and put in a safe condition after examinations had proven them unsafe and dangerous.
A remarkably small number of school children were shown in the report to have figured in motor accidents on or near school grounds. A factor in this result was declared to have been the insistence of the patrol that drivers observe the speed limit when passing through school zones.
