Governor Attends Opening of Giant Tri-County’s Fair greatest school and education exhibit ever staged in the southland. Here the parent will have an opportunity to see how theory receives practical application in the modern program. A big double junior fair will feature the exhibits of hundreds of members of 4-H and Future Farmer clubs throughout the southland. Boy Scouts, Woodcraft Rangers and others will also have a part. Girls will participate more actively than ever before. Never were the entertainment features more numerous and more varied. Headed by 16 days of horse racing with the pari-mutuels on week days and the beautiful society horse show the first eight nights, the exposition will offer the greatest midway and joy zone ever assembled on the coast. Half a mile of thrills, rides and laughter will compete for attention. Here will be a paradise for the young folks. Roman chariot races, miniature auto races, motorcycle races, colorful girl revues, favorite radio stars in national broadcasts, dare-devil stunts, sensational circus acts and countless other attractions round out the program. During the hours of each day one special event will crowd rapidly upon the heels of another until there is little left to be desired. And there is automobile parking within the grounds for 30,000 cars. Calcium Chloride Puts Out Blazes Calcium chloride in water solution, at the rate of one-half pound dry weight per square yard, has been effectively City’s Tax Rate Is Same as Last Year (Continued from page 1) Ours occasioned by a vast amount of relief work done in conjunction with the federal government. Such work included the PWA and CWA projects under which the city paid for materials and certain other expenses in connection with installation of underground conduits for the light and power department, and was to similar expense for extension and improvement of the sewer system. The federal government paid for labor and certain other costs. In this connection, Power Superintendent V. W. Hannum reported to the council that the PWA project in laying conduits and installation of new light poles was $9.84 per cent complete, with but $100 left on hand to complete the job. For the month of August, $326.11 was spent for material and $615.50 for labor. Automobile Taxes Enormous Burden Special federal and state motor vehicle taxes cost automotive owners of the United States an average of $51.29 during 1933, or $7.05 more than in 1932. Last year’s total motor tax bill reached the record sum of $1,221,861.583, despite a decline of $12,673 in number of motor vehicles registered. On the basis of $3,834,268,035 valuation for all motor vehicle property this means that the tremendous motor tax bill paid by motorists was over 31 percent of the total worth. The average tax per vehicle for the country during 1930 was $37.72 or $13.57 less than the average for 1933. Calcium Chloride Puts Out Blazes Calcium chloride in water solution, at the rate of one-half pound dry weight per square yard, has been effectively used by the U.S. forest service in Michigan to stop fires running in grass and ferns. Worst Forest Fire Burned Giant Area The worst forest fire on record, according to the U.S. forest service, was the Miramichi fire of 1825, which burned 3,000,000 acres of timberland in Maine and New Brunswick and caused the loss of 160 lives. The record number of lives lost was in the Poshtage fire in Wisconsin where, in 1871, an area of 1,280,000 acres was burned and 1,500 lost their lives. ? WHY?

Two More Cases of Paralysis Found Recurrence of infantile paralysis in Orange county was announced by Dr. K. H. Sutherland, county health officer, as a result of two cases discovered Sunday. These were the first cases reported in more than five weeks. Jack Hostetler, six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Ross Hostetler of Costa Mesa was at Sunday school when he suddenly became ill. He was rushed to the county hospital for treatment, his case diagnosed and all members of his class isolated till they are pronounced out of danger of contagion.

B. Salm, forest service lookout observer on Strawberry Peak in the San Bernardino national forest, has invented a power plant consisting of an 8-foot airplane propeller mounted on ball bearings and connected to an automobile generator through a "V" belt with a 10 to 1 ratio. The output of this plant, which is stored in 6-volt batteries to assure a constant supply of electricity, is 2 amperos with an 8 mile wind, and 18 amperes with a 30-mile wind. The total cost of the plant was $15. Millions Motor To Our National Parks Motor vacationists of America are turning to the national parks in great- Revoke Licenses of 2 Produce Brokers J. C.

This is indicated by a report received from Washington to the effect that visitors to the national parks this year will be approximately a million more than in 1933. From October 1, 1933, to June 30, 1934, there were 922,937 visitors to the parks, or 38.8 per cent more than during the same period a year ago.

Three main types of flooring are now in place throughout the laboratory as a whole—wood flooring, strips and blocks, pressed wood fiber tile, and linoleum, the last-named qualifying very appropriately among forest products because of its large content of cork, wood flour, and forest-produced resins and oils.

OBSERVATIONS ANOTHER DREAM The EPIC plan proposes that the state rent farms and factories, now idle, and permit the unemployed to operate both with raw material and machinery furnished by the state. For these things to be self-sustaining the products from these farms and factories would have to be sold in the open market, to get a revenue. In other words the state would then come into direct competition with private enterprise. That would not do! On the other hand, were these farms and factories operated solely for the mere existence of the unemployed—not self sustaining—the harassed unemployed would continue to drudge along without gain on advancement. Those of them who are already receiving charity from the state would stay just where they are. If these idle lands could be sold to the unemployed—individually—at a nominal figure, on long time, easy payments, that plan would be a benefit to them. At least they could find a way to acquire a home and comfort. YES, WE HAVE NO BANANAS The boys who were among those who also ran are like the guy who took a train for Hawaii. HEY, P.M.G.F., FETCH THE CHECKER BOARD U. S. Now that I have the nomination in the bag I want a conference. B.S.V.P. cussed and debated for lo! these many years. There is no government) on earth today under a socialistic form of government, save Russia, and what they have is not real socialism; it is what is called a soviet — a council. The rich have been destroyed. They have been penalized. Socialism advocated by the leaders here is the socialization of the existing industries. It is a battle between capital and labor. Long standing and yet unsolved. PUT UP A TARIFF WALL. One of the main reasons why factories and farm land are idle, is because this country is flooded with cheaply produced articles made in foreign countries. These conditions could be changed with a tariff for protection to home industries. That would give employment to many men now out of jobs. It is the only way out. GETTING ON THE BAND WAGON It's a good thing there are not more than two or three political parties, because if a candidate wanted in all of them he would be busier than an old hen with a flock of ducklings.

PUT HIM ON THE SPOT A pioneer deer hunter says an amateur should wear a red hat and coat when he goes after the bucks. And he says the guy puts in a deerskin and a pair of horns flirts with the hospital. BEWARE! DANGER AHEAD! The EPIC plan as proposed is an hallucination—something imaginary. It is not socialism. The plan has been advocated as a panacea for all ills. It is not practical. Socialism means an economic theory of the reconstruction of society on the basis of cooperation of labor and community property. That is a moot question.
