Gasoline Taxes On Upward Trend May's Total of $3,529,779 Is Quarter of Million Above Same Month Last Year Continuing an upward trend begun last March, California gasoline taxes for May total $3,529,779.35, exceeding similar collections for the same month last year by $270,304.02. This was revealed by the state board of equalization, upon completion of the May assessment roll. "Unbroken gains in the amount of gallonage subject to the state tax for a period of three months are gratifying indications of substantial improvement in business conditions," it said. "The increase in the gallonage taxed last month contrasted with May, 1933, is 8.2 per cent, showing that the trend is consistent, as the comparable percentage for April was 8.5." "Distributions for summer months invariably show increased sales and it is reasonable to anticipate that at the current rate of increase, the gross tax for 1934 may approach $40,000,000."

Here is a problem which appears in the current issue of a national safety council magazine. Can you solve it? "A motorist was 100 yards from an open level crossing and was proceeding at 45 miles an hour. A train was also approaching at 60 miles an hour and its distance from the crossing was 150 yards. Did the motorist get across?" And here is the right answer: "Why of course, he got a cross. His widow had it erected over his grave and paid for it out of his insurance money."

Burglar Walks Into Station, Gets $10 HARRY D. RILEY "I believe no business of or within our county demands more careful planning and business organization than this department of law enforcement." Mr. Riley said. "And I believe my 15 years of service with county leaders in developing commercial and humanitarian programs qualifies me to pledge that sort of administration without possibility of failure." "I believe the taxpayer is demanding a new deal in the management of this office, and I am positive he is entitled to realize that demand. Having been a taxpayer since coming to the county I know the burdens placed upon property by poor management in governmental affairs. "Laws must be enforced. If it is true that gambling has been carried on as an organized business within the county the situation certainly indicts law enforcement efforts." This is Mr. Riley's first bid for public office, his previous efforts in the county having been entirely commercial and humanitarian. He was president of the Anaheim chamber of commerce six years at a time when this office also carried the duties of presidency of the California Valencia Orange Show, of which he was an organizer. He is past exalted ruler of the Anaheim Elks Lodge and is a Mason. He is also past president of the Anaheim Rotary Club. In county public service his energies took him into chairmanships in the Associated Chambers of Commerce.

May Liquor Taxes Highest On Record Wine and Beer Bring in Total of $136,655 for May, Gain of 86.6% Exceeding the figure for any previous month, the California tax at 2 cents per gallon upon the sale of beer and wine amounted to $136,655.59 for May, according to an announcement by the state board of equalization this week. Contrasting the yield from the beverage tax for last month with that for May, 1933, the statement points out that there has been an increase of $63,437.90, marking a gain of 86.6 per cent. Beer sales continue to be responsible for the bulk of the tax," it said. "Out of a total gallonage of 6,832,775 beer represented 5,877,506, as contrasted with only 955,269 gallons of wine. Consumption of home products has marked beer and wine sales ever since this tax was inaugurated in April, 1933. Following experience in previous months, California breweries produced the bulk of the taxable beverage so that 92 per cent of the beer sold in California was of their manufacture." Kress Store Fined $80 On Two Counts On notice of appeal on July 7, Justice Charles Kuchel granted a stay of execution on a total of $80 fines levied against the Kress dime store for selling aspirin on two different occasions to state inspectors.

Lumber Code Regulates Selection of Trees, Re-planting, Protection Against Fire Forest conservation will become a reality throughout California on June 1, when region rules of forest practice under section ten of the NRA lumber code will become effective, according to S. B. Snow, chief of the forest service in this state. These rules which will have the legal weight of the lumber code authority behind them, will define what action private owners of timber and woodlands must take to protect their forests during logging, together with cooperation in protection against fire, insects and disease, conservation of young growth, and provision for restocking the land with trees after cutting. Such measures are already in effect on publicly owned lands within national forests. Both the Redwood division and the California section of the western pine division of the lumber code authority will submit rules for forest practice to the president by April 15. When finally approved these rules will become, in effect, the federal law of the forests affecting $800,000 acres of private land in California. Forest service officials state that the ultimate object of the forest conservation measures is sustained yield or the perpetuation of a continuous growth of trees on all lands adapted to forestry purposes, another essential to sustained production of forest resources is the program of public forest acquisition which is now being urged by the lumber industry. This program is for the primary objective of restoring and sustaining desirable growing stocks of timber, maintaining a permanent yield of forest products and assuring permanency to forest industries, communities and labor. The plan calls for the acquisition by the government of 44 million acres of privately owned land in the West valuable as commercial forests, and for watershed protection, erosion control and for recreational purposes. Anaheim, Calif., June 28, 1934 Congress Studies Old Age Pensions (Continued from page 1) out about it. Not till I arrived in Orange county did I hear of the Utoplane. As far as I have found out so far, the organization appears to be a political organization to support Upton Sinclair for governor." When informed that certain organizations and individuals in the county are advocating that the board of supervisors, as one government, hire and pay the expenses of a lobbyist to go to Washington to wrangle money from another government, the congressman said: "That attitude is not confined to Orange county. It is nationwide. "As a republican at Washington," he went on, "I have been a member of a minority party. My conception of the purposes of a minority party is that it should point out the other side of the picture of legislation which the majority adopts. This the republicans have done. I have done what I could to help. But I did not let my party allegiance bland me to the needs of my country, and many republicans joined with me in voting for those measures, whether sponsored by the democrats or not, which we believed the country most needed." Congress will be called upon next session to consider legislation for old age pensions, Congressman Collins said. He pointed out that a dozen different old age pension plans have been submitted, among them the Townsend plan which is receiving considerable support in Southern California. Just before leaving, much of Congressman Collins' time was spent on perfection of the Wheeler-Howard bill, which realigns certain obligations of the federal government toward Indians. In getting this bill passed, Collins worked for certain modifications to meet ob- age pensions, Congressman Collins said.
