All Churches To Join Prayer Services Friday The churches of Anaheim will join in the World Day of Prayer services with Reverend Ray C. Harker of the White Temple Methodist church as host Pastor tomorrow February 28th. The Pastors and members of each church will have a part in the program. Opening at 2:30 in the afternoon the business meeting will feature election of officers for the coming year. The program following the meeting in the afternoon will be under the direction of Mrs. Thomas Walker and Mrs. Samuel Loose. At 6:15 p.m. a pot-luck dinner will be served, after which the evening program, under the direction of Mrs. H. A. Hawley will be participated in by the various churches. The guest speaker on the evening program will be Miss Elena Trejo who is a missionary from Guatamala. Special musical programs have been arranged for both the afternoon and evening services, which will follow the general program used in all churches throughout the world on this annual Day of Prayer. Church Society Honors Older Members The order members of the Ladies' Aid of the Salem Evangelical church were honored guests at a birthday party following the regular meeting at the church Thursday afternoon. Mrs. E. Ehlsner presided at the business meeting. A short program, led by Mrs. E. Ehlers who read a poem as the first number, and including two duet numbers by Mrs. Betty Mauerhan and Mrs. Philura Stockwell, singing "Where We Will Never Grow Old," and "Benediction," preceded a social hour of informal games, directed by Reverend S. E. Schrader. Each of the honored guests was presented with a beautiful potted African primrose plant as she was seated at the tea table, lighted by the candles on the birthday cakes. Mrs. Bertha Hochuli, Mrs. F. Altenow, Mrs. G. Betz, Mrs. Libby Johnson, Mrs. A. Koch, Mrs. M. Koch, Mrs. Emma Luhring, Mrs. Mary Mickle, Mrs. R. C. Leibliart, Mrs. Lena Tierfelder, Mrs. E. Holbe, Mrs. Y. Yorde, Mrs. Minnie Schultz, Miss Mary Wipperman, Mrs. J. Hauptman and Mrs. C. Bruns were among the honored guests. The ladies responsible for the delightful party were Mrs. Ada Zimmerman, Mrs. Sarah Gust, Mrs. Gladys Black, Mrs. R. C. Hein, Mrs. Vera Korn and Mrs. Frieda Peters. THE FARMER By RALPH H. Executive Secretary Agriculture The favorite trade balance of the United States is now the lowest since 1911. More than that, it is 50 per cent below the 1934 balance! And looking at the facts squarely, without recourse to "wishful thinking," there is little likelihood of any material improvement in America's export trade for some time to come. No less an authority than Chester Davis, director of the AAA, declares that European countries, due to economic stringency, war and threats of war, are bending every effort toward becoming self-sustaining. He adds that in light of these conditions the United States can not look forward to any immediate improvement in her foreign markets. Actuated by the immutable law of self-preservation, the problem appears to have resolved itself on a basis of "Every Nation for itself." Canada, for example, is concentrating as far as possible on Canadian products. England continues, to the utmost of her ability, to "Buy British." Germany favors products of the Fatherland with a drastic ruling that imports can be paid for only in German goods—a severe blow to the California prune industry. Italy, apprehensive of a new European war and blockade of her seaports, is determined to be "sufficient unto herself" at all costs. And France keeps peace with the others, speeding up production of her agricultural plant and her other AL'S BATTERY SERVICE Vesta Batteries OFFICIAL HEADLIGHT STATION NO. 644 123 S.

Olive Street Phoné 4886 WASHINGTON The usual February drive for an early adjournment of Congress is on, dividing the legislators into two opposing groups. One wants a lot more NRA-like restriction and tifling legislation enacted, regardless of its effect on re-employment; the other contends Congress should quit and let recovery proceed without further tinkering. Most majority chiefs on Capitol Hill hope the "must" legislative program will be limited to appropriations bills, a new relief program, the AAA substitute (including half to three-quarters of a billion dollars in taxes), extension of the neutrality act, and possibly to the utmost of her ability, to "Buy British." Germany favors products of the Fatherland with a drastic ruling that imports can be paid for only in German goods—a severe blow to the California prune industry. Italy, apprehensive of a new European war and blockade of her seaports, is determined to be "sufficient unto herself" at all costs. And France keeps peace with the others, speeding up production of her agricultural plant and her other industries. Nor is there the slightest basis of truth in the oft-repeated statement that other nations have adopted their high tariffs in retaliation against increased tariffs established by the United States. As a matter of fact, most of the European nations raised their tariff barriers first and then cried "We shall have to retaliate"— COMFORT ECONOMY COAST TO COAST Service Plus in comfort, economy and quality is what facilities of the Santa Fe Trail Bus System Plus Santa Fe Railway coordination brings the traveler.

TAYLOR Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California The trade balance of states is now the low-11. More than that, recent below the 1934-hoping, thereby, to prevent the United States from doing likewise. In the great game of international diplomacy, the United States has been constantly outbid and out-bluffed. What, then, of American agriculture under these conditions? The National Cooperative Council, comprised of the country's leading farm cooperatives, has enunciated the only sound and sane policy to meet such an emergency in its declaration that "The American market for agricultural products should be given first to American agriculture . . ." Such a policy should be adopted without any thought of reprisal. California farmers, particularly, have benefitted by a heavy export trade in times past and every effort should be made to retain the foreign trade which still exists. On the other hand, it is absolutely imperative that tariff protection be used at the present time to equalize the difference in production costs at home and abroad — and to prevent foreign products from under-selling American products right in our own American market. American agriculture does not ask tariff barriers which would prohibit the importation of foreign commodities, nor does it seek a tariff which would force prices above reasonable, competitive levels, representing American standards of living. Funeral Service Held Last Week For N. Bittner Funeral services were held last week from Backs, Terry & Campbell for the late Nicholas Bittner who passed away at his home at 1111 Lincoln avenue. He was 77 years old and a native of San Francisco. He came to Anaheim when he was but a small child, his family being one of the early settlers. He was the leader of one of the early bands known as the Anaheim Band. Also, he was one of the drivers of the street car line here which was operated during 1888. He is survived by a son, Alfred Bittner of Long Beach, and during the latter part of his life was retired. The survey was prepared by the Federal Trade Commission and led committeemen to believe that enactment of the Walsh bill would penalize the small businessman rather than the big one, and hence encourage monopolies.

One wants NRA-like restriction legislation enacted, reits effect on re-emthe other contends should quit and let proceed without further Priority chiefs on Capitol the "must" legislative will be limited to approills, a new relief proAA substitute (includthree-quarters of a ears in taxes), extension rality act, and possibly some changes in the TVA. They agree, however, that pressure for other experimental legislation is hampering recovery by increasing fears about the future. Whose views will prevail is uncertain. But the lawmakers find at the top of the fear-engendering list a number of bills that are moving slowly but surely ahead. These include the Ellenbogen plan to set up a new NRA in the textile industry, the Walsh bill to apply code conditions to govern-ment contractors and borrowers, the O'Mahoney bill to require licensing of interstate businesses, and the Black-Connery 30-hour-week bill. All, in one way or another, are designed to re-create some part of the NRA. Unless Congress does adjourn soon, the leaders who oppose these bills say they will become more of a threat. History supports that contention, for virtually every recent long session of Congress has brought enactment of some measure not desired by the party in power but backed by an organized minority. The Congressional chiefs have been urging the President to take a positive attitude toward these measures. So far he has not agreed, except to intimate that he thought the Walsh bill or something like it should be put abroad — and to prevent foreign products from under-selling American products right in our own American market. American agriculture does not ask tariff barriers which would prohibit the importation of foreign commodities, nor does it seek a tariff which would force prices above reasonable, competitive levels, representing American standards of living. It has a right, however, to expect protection against being undersold in its own market—and against the break down of American wage standards. Sound economics, rather than any spirit of reprisal, should be the governing factor in the country's trade policies. And sound economics certainly should dictate an even break for home products in home markets. YUNGE $100 DA Sat. Feb.

So far he has not agreed, except to intimate that he thought the Walsh bill or something like it should be put through. Statistics may be used in an attempt to stop the new anti-business bills just as they were used in blocking the inflation drive. When the inflationists grew too vociferous, they were reminded that more money was in circulation the day the banks closed in 1933 than on any other day in the nation's history. Inflation talk subsided. Now the House Judiciary subcommittee which is handling the Walsh bill has just finished a study of nearly 4,000 contracts granted by the government since the NRA decision. It found half of the contractors were still living up to NRA wages and hours, and that these contractors employed two-thirds of the workers involved in all government contracts. It discovered, too, that those who had strayed entirely from NRA wage and hour stipulations hired only 9 per cent of the total who worked on government contracts. Interesting was the fact that not one single employer of more than 1,000 persons had neither reduced NRA wages or hiked NRA hours. Not brought out in the survey was the obvious fact that business has improved steadily since the death of the NRA, whereas it has been at a standstill during the period of regimentation.
