Martha Adams and William Grafton Engaged to Marry Wedding Will Link Old-time Families of Anaheim; No Date Set Announcement that two old-time families of Anaheim will be linked by marriage proved of more than usual interest in social circles this week. Friends were bidden to a birthday banquet Sunday evening in honor of Miss Martha Adams, attractive daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Adams. Dinner was served at small tables, on which tapers were arranged in a Christmas effect. Following the delightful dinner, tallies were passed for bridge. In the tallies was the announcement of the engagement of Miss Adams to William Grafton, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Grafton. No date for the wedding has been announced. Mrs. Kenneth Walker, Mrs. Dee Dixon, Dee Dixon and Gordon McComber won prizes at bridge. Guests bidden included: Mr. and Mrs. Kennett Walker, Mr. and Mrs. Carlton Tucker, of Brea, Mr. and Mrs. Ewald Lemcke, Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Grafton, Misses Marian Utter, Helen and Nell Grafton, Florence Backs, Jessie Johnston, Dorothy Yungbluth and Ethelyn Grainger of Fullerton and Kathryn Adams; and Messrs Arvid Murman of Los Angeles, Howard Hineman of General Grant National Park, William Queale of Fullerton, Max Moody and William Grafton. Fullerton Plans President’s Ball Constable Recount Still in Progress Late on Thursday Till press time Thursday the result of recount in the constable race for Anaheim township still was in doubt. Incumbent E. D. Marion still led his challenger, Sam Snodgrass, by two votes, although there was a total of about 25 votes cast aside as being illegally marked. These ballots will be placed before the judge for final decision. Several verbal skirmishes marked the counting, at which attorneys representing both interested parties sit for the purpose of the recount. The board of supervisors canvass showed that Marion had been re-elected by a vote of 3774 to 3772. This result was questioned by Snodgrass. Brown Is Chosen To Lead Masons Most subordinate officers of the Anaheim Masonic lodge will advance a step early next year as a result of an election held last Friday evening at the Masonic temple. A. P. M. Brown, senior warden was elected master; Arthur E. Osborn, junior warden, Carl Martin treasurer and E. R. Deering secretary. On the dinner program the honored guests were Charles Haas of Los Angeles, and T. S. Southwick, Masonic librarian for Southern California, P. H. Krick introduced the former, recalling the night in 1899 when Mr. Haas was initiated into the local lodge. In his talk, Mr. Haas pointed to the progress of Southern California and stated that various Masonic lodge members played a large part in its development. Anaheim’s lodge, he said, is the fourth oldest in the Los Angeles area. Amongst Mr. and West Broadway guests Baird Mrs. Beryl Betty, form now from brother and of the hosts. Your dreamer $1.70.

Roosevelt's birthday, Wednesday, January 30, with a birthday ball at Fullerton union high school gymnasium, it is announced by Chairman William G. Stedman. Upon request of Henry L. Doherty, chairman of the national committee of the birthday ball for the president, Mr. Stedman accepted the chairmanship again for the 1935 event and reappointed all members who served on his committee for the ball last January. Seventy percent of the proceeds of the 1935 president's ball will be retained in local geographical areas to be administered by a committee for rehabilitation of infantile paralysis victims in each area. The other 30 percent will be sent to the president for use by a national commission to be created by him to widen research efforts toward combatting infantile paralysis, diphtheria, typhoid fever, smallpox and other maladies. The entire proceeds of the president's balls last January went to the Georgia Warm Springs foundation for work against infantile paralysis. Plans for the 1935 ball will be discussed next Monday evening at a meeting for the Fullerton committee. Members of the committee who served with Mr. Stedman last January are Mrs. Sam Collins, Mrs. Ralph Irwin, Mrs. G. W. Olson, Mrs. Esther Culp Litchfield, Mrs. Robert Dawling, Mrs. Chas. MacMaster, Walter Muckenthaler, Harry Smith, Glenn Gossett, Norman Lombard and B. K. Maxwell. Justus Craemer Quits As Aide of Merriam (Continued from page 1) me to submit my resignation as private On the dinner program the honored guests were Charles Haas of Los Angeles, and T. S. Southwick, Masonic librarian for Southern California, P. H. Krick introduced the former, recalling the night in 1899 when Mr. Haas was initiated into the local lodge. In his talk, Mr. Haas pointed to the progress of Southern California and stated that various Masonic lodge members played a large part in its development. Anaheim's lodge, he said, is the fourth oldest in the Los Angeles area. History Teacher Lists Three Ways Toward Recovery (Continued from page 1) the balance, finding fault with the modern tendency to "examine all the branches of the tree of politics" but failing to "get down to the roots." As an example he pointed to the great circulation of "picture books," "picture papers," and news reels, in which captions or explanations are too brief to record essential facts. The average individual apparently fails to look beyond surface experience, not caring to trace the causes nor the results. "Millions of people saw the assassination of the Balkan king simply because it was recorded in news reels," he said. "Most of those people will not look further, nor read interpretations of competent historical writers upon the effects of the act. They saw the assassination. Nothing more can be told them." This shallow acceptance of deep and significant trends makes us susceptible to regarding our own history in the light of what we believe instead of in the light of actual facts, he said. This presupposes that we must bring eventual recovery along the roads of what we believe is American history, rather than what actually might be history. The first speaker on the program was Dr. Vernon McKenzie, professor of Journalism at the University of Washington and a tourist in Europe for four months last summer for the purpose of studying methods of propaganda and freedom of the press. Dr. McKenzie wandered about Europe, first telling the Chancellor Hitler's successful control of all avenues of publicity within the Fatherland and of the utter lack of coordination in control of news going to the rest of the world. He then told how France gives her newspapers a great deal of freedom, but because of the national curse... Justus Craemer Quits As Aide of Merriam (Continued from page 1) me to submit my resignation as private secretary to Governor Merriam. "I do so with the feeling that the purposes which induced me to accept the appointment have been fulfilled by the election and that I can now properly be relieved without detriment to Governor Merriam or the interests of the state, to be able to devote some time to my own affairs. "It has been a privilege to have been associated with a man of the type of Governor Merriam and I look forward with every confidence to the success of his administration. I would be wanting in gratitude if I omitted to acknowledge also the assistance and loyal cooperation which a host of friends in the state have extended to me during the time I have occupied the post of private secretary. "To my friends of the press, I feel a special obligation. Their firm devotion to the cause of Americanism preserved the state from a grim experience. They deserve high credit for distinguished service. "The experiences of the recent campaign have informed me of the spirit of generous devotion to the public welfare which may be expected of the people of California in time of crisis." COMMENDS FARM BUREAU Anaheim Farm Center members Tuesday night voted, upon a resolution presented by W. C. Mauerhan, to commend the Orange County Farm Bureau for its "co-operation in an attempt to determine a way of settling the gun club question." Among Your Friends Mr. and Mrs. E. C.

Centralia To Vote Upon School Bonds Sometime in the near future residents of the Centralia school district will go to the polls and decide whether or not they want a $30,000 bond issue with which to construct new buildings to available during harvest seasons. And the roving farm laborer, who now spends at least half of his time looking for work, vitally needs such a service to facilitate his search for employment. The San Joaquin Valley Labor bureau—the most successful agency of its type in the entire country—has done splendid work in stabilizing farm labor conditions in the San Joaquin valley. Under the able management of Frank J. Palomares, it has performed a valuable service for the worker as well as the farmer. The farmer has secured better labor, adapted to his needs, and the farm worker has benefited by improved living conditions, more regular employment and the elimination of much of the cost, and many of the disappointments, of constant job-hunting. Whether the state-wide bureau, if created, would be state-financed, or supported by voluntary subscriptions of farmers and farm groups, is still problematical. The "voluntary subscription" system has been used in financing the Joaquin Valley Labor bureau and the bureau has paid for itself many times over in expediting efficient handling of peak harvest periods. To be successful, a state-wide farm labor placement bureau would require the active cooperation of federal, state, municipal and private employment agencies. More than that, it will be imperative that a better system of coordination be worked out to supplement farm work with industrial employment, if a fairly stable labor supply is to be maintained. "Rough industry" and public utility operations which use unskilled labor provide much of the supplemental work for seasonal farm workers, but the success of a casual labor clearing house system would require close cooperation between agriculture and industry to eliminate, or at least greatly reduce, the present gaps in employment. The railroads, for example, have cooperated in several instances, releasing many of their unskilled workers at peak harvest seasons and picking-up their work on roadbeds, etc., following the conclusion of the harvest season. If a state-wide bureau is established, it is probable that branches would be located in each large agricultural area to serve both farmers and farm workers and keep the industry advised of the labor supply and demand throughout the state. In this manner, the movement of workers from one section to another could be reduced to a minimum and many of the disappointments and irritations which result from present conditions—and which often terminate in strikes or riots could be eliminated.

This decision was made at a mass meeting held late last week, at which School Board Trustees Mead Shear, George E. Marshall and E. L. Davis submitted figures to show that with the new buildings a special school tax rate of 25 cents imposed this year could be eliminated, substituting therefor a tax of 20 cents to erect the buildings. With the new structures the board could force the state to pay on the basis of school population instead of upon the basis of average daily attendance, it is claimed. Rotary Welcomes Three New Members Anaheim Rotarians were entertained Monday noon at their regular luncheon meeting with colored slides of landscaped homes and gardens of movie stars and other places of interest in Southern California. Landscape Architect Charles G. Adams of Los Angeles exhibited the pictures and talked about landscaping. Wilbert H. Bonney helped operate the machine, Samuel E. Loose, physical education director of the elementary school system, presented some of his students in a tubling act. S. C. Hartranft welcomed three new members, Homer Medlock, John L. Bovee and Alvin C. Berry. Members of the 20-30 club were guests of the Rotarians. If a state-wide bureau is established, it is probable that branches would be located in each large agricultural area to serve both farmers and farm workers and keep the industry advised of the labor supply and demand throughout the state. In this manner, the movement of workers from one section to another could be reduced to a minimum and many of the disappointments and irritations which result from present conditions—and which often terminate in strikes or riots could be eliminated. Careful planning, expert management and the close cooperation of other industries which use unskilled labor will be essential to the success of such a plan, but the San Joaquin Valley Labor Bureau has pioneered the way and demonstrated the practicability of the program. It is to be hoped that definite action may be taken in the near future to make the program statewide. Fishing Reel Theft Brings a Jail Term Judge Charles Kuchel on Saturday morning sentenced Edward Seilk to pay a fine of $50 following the latter's plea of guilty to stealing a fishing reel valued at $10 from Donald A.

Parks Funeral services for Mrs. George Albert Parks, resident of this city since 1927 who died at her 1130 West Center street home Sunday following a brief illness, were held Tuesday afternoon from the St. Luke's Episcopal church at Long Beach, where Rev. A. G. H. Bode, formerly of the local Episcopal church, officiated. Mrs. Parks is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Ernest A. Payne of Ontario; four sons, G. Millard and Everett E., both of Anaheim; John W. of Richmond, Calif., and Ernest of Los Angeles. Norgaard Is Back From Journey Wesley Norgaard, pastor of the Foursquare church, returned last week from an 8,000-mile trip to 19 states in an executive office for his church. Work centered in Chicago, but through the Rocky mountain into the Black Hills of South Dakota throughout the Middle West parts of the South. He held a conference of three-day Bible conferences ago.

License Plates Will Be Mailed After Christmas Thousands of Applications Being Filed to Avoid Holiday Rush With preparations about completed for the annual reregistration of more than 2,000,000,000 motor vehicles in California, the state department of motor vehicles now is receiving applications by mail for the 1935 license plates. The department is placing on file the thousands of applications coming in from all parts of the state, assigning the plates and preparing the registrations cards so that mailing of the plates and registration cards can begin immediately after the holidays. The mailing to the owners is withheld until that time in cooperation with the postal department in order to avoid a further postal burden during the Christmas rush. Russell Bevans, registrar of vehicles, urges the public to apply for the 1935 license plates by mail now, as this is the simplest and most convenient method both for the owners and the department. All that is necessary is for the applicant to mail to the department at Sacramento the registration card along with the $3 fee, which can be contained in a money order, bank draft or credited check. Do not send cash or currency. If there has been a change of legal ownership during the year, or time contract payments have been completed, also send the certificate of ownership and an additional $1.00 fee to cover the transfer. Absopure Products Burglarized Sunday Burglaries climbed a chute to the second story of the building occupied by the Absopure Fruit Products company sometime Sunday night, entered through a door at a loading platform, broke another door on the inside of the building, and ransacked personal effects of Pierce W. Van Dorn, an officer of the company. Whether or not any canned fruit juice had been taken was not reported to police. The burglaries did take an ornate bird cage, valued at $3.50. The burglary, along with a series of others in the Anaheim district are laid to transients, by Police James S. Bouldin. GIFTS For the Home VINCENT FURNITURE CO. Center at Palm St., Anaheim FOX ANAHEIM Sun., Mon., Tues. Dec. 16-17-18 Sunday Continuous shows from 2 P.M. "WE LIVE AGAIN" with Anna Sten • Fredric March "Gridiron Flash" All that is necessary is for the applicant to mail to the department at Sacramento the registration card along with the $3 fee, which can be contained in a money order, bank draft or credited check. Do not send cash or currency. If there has been a change of legal ownership during the year, or time contract payments have been completed, also send the certificate of ownership and an additional $1.00 fee to cover the transfer. Be sure the personal property tax clearance is stamped on the back of the registration card and that the proper address is given. The coming reregistration period is the first for which the law passed by the 1933 legislature requiring payment of personal property tax on the car as a prerequisite to receiving a license, will be in effect. Accordingly, registration cards which have not been properly stamped on the back will be returned. If the present address is different from that typed on the registration card strike out the old address and insert the new in the address space provided on the registration card. Registration over the counter at the department of motor vehicles headquarters in Sacramento and at the various branches and auto clubs throughout the state will begin on January 2. The plates for 1935 will have orange letters on a black background. Just the reverse of the 1934 plates. Wives and Sweethearts Don't forget to get your smoke and liquor gifts from us.
