For several years he was president, and is now a director of the Orange County Crippled Children's Relief Association. He is also past president of the Rotary Club.

America Bldg., Anaheim ORANGE COUNTY WEEKLY WATCHTOWER A Compilation of Observation and Comment by and for the Weekly Newspapers of the County APPEARING IN THE FOLLOWING: Huntington Beach News Newport Beach News Garden Grove News Santa Ana Bulletin Westminster Gazette Coastline Dispatch South Coast News Buena Park News Yorba Linda Star Placentia Courler Anaheim Gazette Seal Beach News La Habra Star Tustin News Brea Progress WHAT NOW, LITTLE MEN? The three-cornered deadlock over bills contracted by the board of supervisors in the flood control election last fall had some unexpected repercussions this week. The newspapers of the county are not the only ones left up a tree, nor are they the only ones who want to know what about it. When the bills for advertising and a dozen other kinds of services connected with the campaign, came in and were allowed by the board the county auditor refused to issue the warrants. In a suit brought by the newspapers Judge Scovel held that the auditor was right. In a suit brought by the papers against the supervisors as a group of individuals Justice Morrison of Santa Ana turned in a freak opinion in which he said "no soap" for the papers because they should have known that the board had no right to buy advertising space. One of the parties who got no pay was the Southern California Edison company. Its bill has been buried on the auditor's desk along with the others. Now it is beginning to wonder whether all these decisions and other hold-ups mean non-payment of its account. This week the supervisors got a query on the subject from S. C. E. And some others who are still holding the sack are wanting to know whether the court decisions bought and paid for by the newspapers also mean them. weekly newspapers. Up to now all they have gotten is the admission that they ought to be paid, but no court ruling as to who should do the paying. Another interesting query that arises concerns the payment of lawyers. The newspapers know well enough that they will have to pay theirs. But Auditor Lambert demanded that he hire his own lawyer at county expense to defend him in the mandamus action. To defend them in the personal suit the supervisors depended not on their own district attorney, who got them in to the mess in the first place, but on a lot of other legal talent, including some of the smartest in the county. Presumably the board expects to pay these lawyers out of county funds. If they do, will the auditor issue the warrants, at least if the board refuses to pay his lawyer? And are the lawyers all to get paid while the other creditors get a kick in the neck? It is one of the prettiest messes ever seen, but then—when you get tangled up with courts and lawyers, what can you expect? Irish M. P. Is Visitor Here "The American people don't know how lucky they are. In my own country of Ireland, we whose incomes are moderate only, pay approximately one-fourth of our been buried on the auditor's desk along with the others. Now it is beginning to wonder whether all these decisions and other hold-ups mean non-payment of its account. This week the supervisors got a query on the subject from S. C. E. And some others who are still holding the sack are wanting to know whether the court decisions bought and paid for by the newspapers also mean them. The result is that the board has delegated to M. N. Thompson, flood control engineer, the task of sorting out the bills and separating those which should be classed as "advertising" (hence coming under the court decisions) and those which are otherwise. Asked what they intended to do after Thompson got that job done, the supervisors confessed ignorance. Out of all which some interesting questions arise. The auditor held up payment of all these accounts on the grounds that the supervisors contracted them illegally. The supervisors are powerless to compel him to get action on their account? And if he issues a warrant what becomes of the others? Will the Edison company take the matter into court in an effort either to force the auditor to issue the warrant or to get it out of the supervisors' hides, or maybe find some other way to get around the stone wall of legal fumbling? Edison has some very good legal talent on its staff, we understand, and may dig up a lot of angles the newspapers' lawyers could not find. In addition to Edison and the newspapers there are numerous other creditors. A so-called citizens' committee is holding the sack for about $700. All have to make a move in the matter and the only ones to do so were the Irish M. P. Is Visitor Here "The American people don't know how lucky they are. In my own country of Ireland, we whose incomes are moderate only, pay approximately one-fourth of our incomes to the government." Thus, Robert Scott, member of the Irish parliament, and a visitor in Fullerton at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert McKee, stated at the Orange county Old Timers' picnic, held Sunday at Irvine park. Mr. Scott found nothing but the highest praise for the American system of government. He did, however, state that he was unable to agree, in principle, with the political philosophy of the democratic national administration, seen through its several alphabetical measures, such as the NRA, AAA, and the like. "I have noted, in my travels to southern California, a nearly world-wide enthusiasm for the future, and for what people believe to be an awakening in business and in industry," Mr. Scott stated. "I believe that one basis of this is a spirit, within each of the several nations of the world, of national pride and national honor. After all, the basic need for amity and generosity among nations is honor and integrity upon her spirit of patriotism." In his few, well chosen remarks delivered to the nearly 4000 people who gathered for the picnic, Mr. Scott told of the cordiality with which he has been received in America. He paid tribute to southern California, told that this was his first trip to this section, Tight shoes have one advantage. They sure your mind off all your troubles.

BLOWING BUBBLES The gold dollar here was devalued, believing that would stimulate business but about all it does is to keep the rich from galvanting around foreign countries, because the dollar will only buy 59 cents worth abroad. THE FRENCH KNOW THEIR "ONIONS" The other day a proposition came up in Paris to devalue the franc as a means to ease up on that country's financial strain, but the measure was decisively defeated.
