KUCHEL Editors and Publishers ESTABLISHED 1870 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR $2.00 SIX MONTHS $1.00 Entered at the Anaheim, California Postoffice as second-class matter. FIRE PREVENTION WEEK In about a month, Fire Prevention Week will be observed again. Starting on October 6, the week will run through the 12th. The week is usually inaugurated by Presidential proclamation. Governors of states and mayors of cities follow suit. Fire marshals, fire departments, insurance organizations and other public and private groups cooperate in seeking to spread the ABC's of fire prevention and control to the general public—which has most at stake, and which must accept the responsibility for almost every fire, large or small, that occurs. During the week every citizen will have a chance to learn easily, thoroughly and "painlessly," the simple lessons that will enable him to keep his home and other property safe from fire. He will be told the menace of old and improperly-done wiring. He will learn the need for periodic inspections of his heating plant—one of the most prolific sources of fire. He will be shown the vital necessity of fire-resistant building, and of modern municipal building codes. He will hear of the tragic school, hospital and other major fires which have destroyed thousands of lives, and property valued at millions, which were absolutely unnecessary. To learn this, the citizen will have to contribute a little of his time. He will have to look at exhibits, read editorials, news reports and pamphlets. He will have to listen to a radio address or two. He will have to keep his mind open and his memory awake—a lesson that is not retained is obviously useless.

In return for this small expenditure of time, he will receive knowledge that may be the means of saving his property from destruction and his loved ones from violent and horrible deaths. Is it worth it to you? AFTER THE BALL IS OVER “Now that the Ball is Over” is, at the moment, an American national air. The “ball” in this case is the Congress. During its long, talkative, comic-opera session solons appropriated $10,000,000,000. And gave the president almost everything he asked for, demonstrating that while Roosevelt potency may be slipping, it still exists. Congress passed an unprecedented soak-the-rich tax on inheritances, gifts and big incomes. It passed a bill to concentrate control of banking and credit under the government. It passed the largest single appropriation in the country’s history—$4,880,000,000 for work and direct relief. It passed a stringent regulatory bill concerning utility holding companies. It passed a bill to enforce the right of collective bargaining by labor. It passed a bill whereby all common carriers, save the barge lines, will be regulated and coordinated in the manner of the railroads. These are the high spots. The session was historic—and just what kind of history it made is a matter of opinion. Some will say that it did its duty to the country well—others that it was a disgrace to democratic government. Take your choice. AN ALBERTA PEACH We may be thankful for one thing. All of the “fall guys” are not in the United States. In the province of Alberta, Canada, a legislative election was won recently by an ultra-New Deal organization known as the Social Credit League. It is said that the League won nearly all of the sixty-three legislative seats, a few being distributed among the regular parties. The Social Credit League is headed by a combination evangelist and school teacher. All adult citizens are to get a “credit dividend” of at least $25 a month, to be paid out by the “state creditor house,” where an entry of $25 in credit is to be made each month in each credit book possessed by an adult. A wife is entitled to $25 a month as well as her husband. This sounds almost as good as some of the “share the wealth” plans which have originated in our United States, including fancy looking prospectuses of alleged oil and gold mines. There ought to be a general flocking of indigent households from all parts of Canada into Alberta. Most charts and analyses of economic conditions in Canada indicate that the Dominion is pulling out of the depression faster than most countries, much faster even than the... the “state creditor house,” where an entry of $25 in credit is to be made each month in each credit book possessed by an adult. A wife is entitled to $25 a month as well as her husband. This sounds almost as good as some of the “share the wealth” plans which have originated in our United States, including fancy looking prospectuses of alleged oil and gold mines. There ought to be a general flocking of indigent households from all parts of Canada into Alberta. Most charts and analyses of economic conditions in Canada indicate that the Dominion is pulling out of the depression faster than most countries, much faster even than the United States. But evidently that isn’t enough. All of those editorial humorists in our country who have been disposed to poke fun at Doe Townsend and his old age pension plans, had better take a second thought. The plan will not work economically but it has political potentialities. If you don’t believe so, send for a copy of the tabulation of the official vote in Alberta in the August election. STRANGLING INITIATIVE Will Rogers, by his native ability and thrift, left an estate valued at between two and one-half and five million dollars. It has been announced that state and federal inheritance taxes will claim some $650,000 if the estate totals two and one-half million, or $1,716,000 if the estate totals five million. Proposals to “soak the rich” through new and greater inheritance taxes, which Mr. Roger’s family escaped, would go far toward destroying the savings of his lifetime. On the savings and wealth-destroying path we are traveling, there is less and less incentive for American citizens to exercise their initiative and ingenuity as in the past an projects which create employment and prosperity. If they are successful, their property will be largely taken away from them through taxation. If they fail, that’s just too bad—the tax collector does not share in the loss. He only takes the profits and savings. WHAT OTHERS THINK An Atchison man who makes a great speech on international peace never has been able to get along with the folks living next door—Atchison Globe. Old Ike Buttonoff found a cool spot in front of the bank yesterday afternoon which had also been found by a bunch of the town’s critics. He said he heard one of the fellows complaining that he had to walk down to the relief office to get his government food yesterday. “He said his old woman took the family car to Wichita yesterday to get the auto radio fixed,” snorted Ike.—Augusta, Kansas, Gazette. According to a dispatch from Washington, party lines are beginning to “grumble.” Every once in a while the printer does improve on the original with his errors—Boston Transcript. The Great Game of Politics as is played in America during presidential campaigns is definitely underway. The ball is up in the air. From now until November 1936, there will be a few moves made nationally by either political party without an eye cocked to ward the voters, and the wise voter will look for these hidden motives. The only thing actually certain about the coming election is that there are so many straws in the wind, so many unknown and unprecedented factors that is a valiant soul who will attempt forecasts. More interesting than candidates however, is the alignment which are being formed that threaten to wipe out party line in the next year. William Randolph Hearst, the publisher, has offered to support his old political enemy, Alfred E. Smith, for president to defeat Mr. Roosevelt. Painbridge Colby, former Secretary of State in the Wilson Administration, is definitely committed to an effort to organize a Constitutional Democratic party in opposition to the incumbent. In the South a group has been formed to prevent Mr. Roosevelt’s nomination. Father Coughlin, who has supported the President consistently and who coined the “Roosevelt or Ruin” phrase, came out publicly with a denunciation of the President and asserted that 18 states already are definitely lost to the Democrats in the next election.

"My dear Lidia. A woman like Anna is naturally subject to certain attentions from young men whose enthusiasm overcomes their discretion. For me to be disturbed by such trivialities would be undignified." "Splendid!" Lidia beamed sarcastically. "If Caesar's wife is above suspicion, it is because of the tone set by Caesar." She turned her attention to the trees which hid Anna and Vronsky from sight. Vronsky held Anna tenderly in his arms. "You're all my life," he murmured. She made a last desperate attempt to help herself, but found herself powerless against her love for him. But even as he kissed her and she answered his kiss with the fervor of her love, the thought of Sergei and her husband tore her from his embrace. "No, no," she begged. "Please help me." She broke from his arms and hurried back to the lawn. Her heart missed a beat as she looked up onto the terrace into the frowning stares of her husband, Countess Lidia and the guests. Chapter Two Anna remained impervious to the sting of society's gossip, but her situation at home became unbearable. Karenin, with icy formality, warned her of the danger an open scandal might bring. The effect of scandal upon her son! Anna's heart was crushed by this possibility. She now spent all her time with Sergei, watching him with frightened eyes for some sign of hurt or unhappiness. But the child seemed more joyous than ever. His days were filled to the brim of happiness now that his mother was always on hand to play with him, to study with him, to romp with him in the garden. It was on just such a day that Vronsky burst upon her as she sat watching Sergei cavort upon the lawn. "Alexei!" Anna's face lit with joy. She gazed at him tenderly. "Your eyes are troubled. "Are they?" he tried to be casual. "I know at once when something is wrong with you," she answered gently. "Is it the race?" Anna referred to the great Cavalry Races which were to take place that afternoon. Vronsky and his horse Frou Frou were the general favorites. "No," he answered as he sat down beside her. "It's people," he said at length: (Continued Next Week) TAIL GOES WITH THE HIDE It is said the border to reopen horse racing, but allow gambling on the road that would be like opal saloon and not sell any b GETTING CART BEFORE THE HORSE They want a lot of money build more prisons.

Former Governor Ritchie of Maryland is returning from Europe and will speak over a national radio hook-up from Boston on Constitution Day, September 17, and his words will be watched closely by political observers. What form all of these activities will take or the extent to which the various combinations are significant will probably depend to a large degree upon the tack which President Roosevelt takes in his first series of speeches. The extended NRA setup which Congress created after the Supreme outlawed the Recovery Act has one of the toughest jobs of any of the various agencies. It is a research organization intended to produce figures to show the necessity for another attempt at regulating business and industry. In its first report, which President Roosevelt sent to Congress just before adjournment, it listed several thousand changes in wages and hours. However, if the expected pickup in business which has become more noticeable since the death of NRA continues, it will be difficult to sell a new era of regimentation to the people.
