Fullerton Isaak Waltons to Hear Project Quartet Moving pictures of both dramatic and scientific value will be part of the educational program planned by the Fullerton chapter of the Izaak Walton League of America for its regular May meeting in its Hillcrest cabin next Wednesday evening (the 13th). President John C. Gregory has arranged also for feature music in a special stage setting to fit the occasion, by a women's sextette from the Federal Music Project's Orange County chorus, directed by Mrs. Dodley Page Harper. These are the same singers who received an outstanding response on the league's all-day educational program in March. Emphasis will be given to how and why to prevent forest fires. This will be done in unique harmony with the principles and purposes of the Constitution as a problem-solving guide, and also with the ancient statesmanship workmanship truth pictured by Confucius when he explained, "The illustrious ancients ... extended their own knowledge to the utmost. In thus extending their knowledge to the utmost, they investigated things and saw them as they really were." The Waltonians invite everyone to investigate—without any admission charge or other obligation. The meeting will start at 7:30. Mr. and Mrs. F. H.

However, on point that he feels he was able crossed by the inside rile the republican leaders, the side is entitled to its say. attitude is that there was no ble-cross, but simply that The first Westinghouse Refrigerator ever sold had a Hermetically-sealed Mechanism. Twelve years of research, experiment, and testing went into its development. To these years of pre-testing have been added long years of actual operating proof. In thousands of homes daily experience shows that this forced-draft cooled, Hermetically-sealed, lifetime-oiled Mechanism is the key to unusually low-cost, trouble-free refrigeration. That is why owners, by thousands, say "If we were buying a new refrigerator today it would certainly be a Westinghouse." That's why Westinghouse can say, "With every sealed-in mechanism you get five years' protection against service expense at a cost of only $5—a dollar a year—included in the price."

It was led by a "committee" from the counties of the congressional district.

ER JEROME considered Jimmy too light to hold down the job. Their point of view was reported in this Watchtower a couple of months ago, before the matter came out into the open at all. Organized work against the proposed state amendment to repeal the sales tax, and substitute a single tax against land, is well under way in Orange county. Property interests of all kinds lined up against the scheme. The past week some activity on the part of two small groups in favor of the proposition was reported. As nearly as it can be traced it comes from some more or less radical leaders who represent persons who own little or no property at all. As time goes on the fight will get warmer. It bids fair to be the most hotly contested issue at the fall election. People who like to be accurately informed as to the facts might want to read a copy of the proposed amendment, as it is to be voted on. You can get a copy by addressing the Orange County Tax Council at 306 W. Third street, Santa Ana. This organization includes representatives of most of the property interests in the county. THE FARMER'S CORNER By RALPH H. TAYLOR (Executive Secretary, Agricultural Council of California) Turning the corner, American agriculture is finally making headway on the job of paying off farm delinquencies which accumulated during the depression. For the first time, current payments on farm loans are forging ahead of current maturities. The demand for emergency refinancing of farm debts is rapidly decreasing. And the demand for loans to finance the purchase of new farms is rapidly increasing. Such, in brief, is the "better business" report handed down by the Farm Credit Administration as the farmer turns the soil for a new season. "While the emergency refinancing of farm debts has decreased rapidly with the improvement in farm conditions," reports the federal agency, "the demand for real estate mortgage loans to finance the purchase of farms has increased noticeably." "The Land Banks and the Land Bank Commissioner are now receiving applications from prospective farm purchasers at the rate of about 2,000 a month. The move toward farm ownership was encouraged considerably by provisions of the Farm Credit Act of 1935 which provided that Commissioner's loans—used hitherto for refinancing—could also be made to finance the purchase of farms in amounts up to 75 percent of the value."

The young ladies are all graduates of U. C. L. A. where they were affiliated with Zeta Tau Alpha sorority. The day was spent in various seaside sports winding up with a fine dinner and bridge in the evening. The prizes at bridge were won by Mrs. Hough and George Shattuck. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Burton Grant, Dr. and Mrs. Harry Hough, Dr. and Mrs. John Klausner, Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Todd, Mr. and Mrs. George Shattuck, Norvald Ulvestad all of Los Angeles, Mr. and Mrs. Ted Kuchel and the hostess, Miss Dorothy Yungbluth of Anaheim. St. Boniface Bank Commissioner are now receiving applications from prospective farm purchasers at the rate of about 2,000 a month. The move toward farm ownership was encouraged considerably by provisions of the Farm Credit Act of 1935 which provided that Commissioner's loans—used hitherto for refinancing—could also be made to finance the purchase of farms in amounts up to 75 per cent of the value." W. I. Myers, Governor of the Farm Credit Administration, also singles out as a healthy sign "The heavy demand for production credit association loans, indicating that the time is approaching when hundreds of millions of dollars of merchant credit and time purchases obtained by farmers each year will be shifted to cash financing through production credit associations, banks, and other institutions equipped to handle farmers' short-term needs on a business basis at a reasonable cost." Of greatest fundamental importance to agriculture, because it reflects the determination of the farmer to liquidate his debts and reach out for solid ground, Governor Myers' report that farmers repaid $43,000,000 to the Federal Land Banks last year—a larger amount than the regular principal amortization on all outstanding Land Bank loans. Under provisions of the Emergency Farm Mortgage Act of 1933, principal payments were not required on most Land Bank loans, Governor Myers points out, but "many farmers elected to make regular amortization payments, while others made special payments and payments in full." If regular payments had been required, they would have totaled $40,800,000. The payments actually made, without government demand or compulsion, amounted to $43,000,000! "In addition to a healthy principal payment record," comments the report, "interest payments on Federal Land Bank loans have shown steady improvement. These facts indicate that the economic improvement in agriculture during the past three years has been material. While improvement has been irregular and variable between regions, there has been a substantial improvement everywhere."

SAY, THAT'S A LOTTA BOLONEY A man high up in command said before the war a Nebraska farmer could take a 200-pound hog to market and buy a suit of clothes made in New York. But yet again he says in 1932 in order to get that suit the farmer had to take two and half hogs to market to get the suit. (Man in rear seat asks: Know why? Because cheaply produced articles from foreign slave countries were dumped here, coming in direct competition with the domestic home industries.) DARK HORSE Willie—What is a keynoter? Papa—a keynoter is a man if he knows his onions and can hold the delegates spellbound even though he never had his name in the paper before, he might knock the persimmon. "In addition to a healthy principal payment record," comments the report, "interest payments on Federal Land Bank loans have shown steady improvement." "These facts indicate that the economic improvement in agriculture during the past three years has been material. While improvement has been irregular and variable between regions, there has been a substantial improvement everywhere. "Conditions have not yet returned to normal, but a large proportion of American farmers are making progress and will work out of their financial difficulties." Governor Myers' wholehearted support of the fundamentally sound fiscal policy of keeping this farmers' bank out of politics, and in avoiding the pitfalls of government subsidy by requiring that it be self-supporting, has been one of the most important facts in the success of his administration. It is also a guarantee of continued worthwhile service to agriculture. LOS ANGELES The MOST Convenient... The BEST Accommodations The FINEST Meals... New HOTEL Clark Opposite Subway Terminal.
