JOB-SEEKERS ENTER TICKET (Continued from page 1) Price for the city clerkship include; Herbert Oelke, defeated at the primaries as third district supervisor candidate; Glenn Merrill and Charles Griffith, who was defeated for city clerk two years ago. While most of the talk on the streets at the present time is about elective offices, there have been a number of suggested changes for other departments. Job-seekers want positions held by Billy Lake in the water and power department, and by Police Chief James C. Bouldin. For the latter position the names of two officers of the local California national guard company have been mentioned most frequently. Along with all the meetings and discussions concerning a probable ticket headed by Long, have been a number of promises of jobs and declarations of policies regarding certain departments. Most of these promises appear to be made for the purpose of lining up support for the individual at the polls in April. In private conversations Long on numerous occasions has declared: "We will must everybody at the city hall. We will make more work by splitting up the three positions held by Nyhoe, providing a building inspector, a plumbing inspector and a fire chief, all different persons." In some quarters Long's all-inclusive promises have led to the belief that if his ticket is elected there will be a complete change of personnel in both the police and fire departments, as well as in city offices proper. Mr. Schweissa, who is scoutmaster of troop No. 74 in Anaheim, Thursday tried to figure out with friends just what career to choose for his new daughter. "Making her a Boy Scout is out of the question, but she might be a Girl Scout," he mused. "Her older sister, Jeanne Marle, is developing into an opera star and I don't suppose we ought to have two in the family. Guess I'll consider making a missionary out of her. Oh well, she'll probably choose her own career anyway, so why worry. If she turns out as healthy and fine as her sister, I'll be more than happy." Anaheim Flower Shop. Phone 3224, Mrs. E. A. Abbott.

Hale Tells About Water Situation (Continued from page 1) the representatives of the Anaheim Union and the Santa Ana Valley insisted upon the purpose being designated to conserve flood waters for san Hale Tells About Water Situation (Continued from page 1) the representatives of the Anaheim Union and the Santa Ana Valley insisted upon the purpose being designated to conserve flood waters for San Bernardino, Riverside, AND Orange counties. In the agreement also is the provision that no spreading shall be done till water passes under the Chapman avenue bridge. These two provisions have preserved the rights of Orange county to those flood waters. Not only did we protect the rights of our irrigating companies, but we protected the rights of the county. Now we have certain loud-mouthed opponents who refuse to see the facts." Superintendent William T. Wallop reported that he recently attended a meeting at which A. A. Young of the department of agriculture was a speaker. The subject was on experiments of water retention qualities of lands covered with brush and trees and bare land. Experiments showed, according to Young, that brush and tree land gains six times by absorption and loses one-half by evaporation as compared with bare land. These experiments completely answer the contention of Engineer Roy C. Browning of the Irvine interests, who seeks a clearing of brush and trees along the lower Santa Ana and construction of a canal to carry the water. A complete auditor's secretary's and superintendent's report was made in the Gazette last week. Attorney H. C. Head outlined the status of the Lillibridge suit, which is being fought jointly by the Anaheim Union and the Santa Ana Valley irrigation company. The new charter was made necessary because when the first was issued, the state provided that it must be limited At that time Orange county of Los Angeles county. In changing the name of the county in which it operates, the few other changes include altering the designation of Anaheim from a "town" to a "city," and a slight straightening out of the northern boundary under which it furnishes irrigating water.
