ANAHEIM GAZETTE Established 1870 Orange County's Oldest Newspaper HENRY KUCHEL, Editor and Publisher 1887-1935 The Anaheim Gazette has been owned and edited by the same family since 1875. Published every Thursday at 269 East Center Street, Anaheim, Calif. MRS. HENRY KUCHEL — THEODORE B. KUCHEL Editors and Publishers ELECT CAPABLE MAN The November election is a little over a week away. To each voter comes the responsibility of making a choice as to how he or she will stamp his or her ballot. This choice will determine the hands in which the tax payers business will be left. Those men selected must be trained and must be capable of doing the job. If they are not the public's affairs will not be taken care of in the way the public demands. And the fault will be the public's. This newspaper has in mind particularly the candidacy of Thomas H. Kuchel for the State Assembly. We would invite a close inspection of his background and capabilities for the office mentioned. Thomas H. Kuchel is the third generation of a family which, over three-quarters of a century ago, helped to found the city of Anaheim. In 1860, his paternal grandfather, Conrad Kuchel, with a group of colonists, came from San Francisco, to what is now the present site of Anaheim, and laid out the town. His uncle the late Richard Melrose was a former member of the State Assembly, a regent of the State University and a prominent political figure in southern California. His father, the late Henry Kuchel, was editor and publisher of the Anaheim Gazette for 48 years, until his demise in 1935. During that time he aided in the fight to create Orange county, and gave unselfishly of his time to the cause of better government.

During that time he aided in the fight to create Orange county, and gave unselfishly of his time to the cause of better government. Thomas Kuchel attended the local public schools, and, upon graduation from High school, attended and graduated from the University of Southern California, and the University of Southern California School of Law. During his summer, he worked on his father's newspaper. By profession, he is a lawyer, with offices in Anaheim. Concerning the taxing program for California, he is opposed to any additional tax upon the common property owner, and is against an ad valorem tax on real estate, now put forward as an issue to confront the next legislature. He is in favor of conserving the natural resources of Orange county and the state, and would seek passage of constitutional measures designed to protect our surf and ocean fishing. He favors relief to special assessment districts by the legislature, which will be permissible if Assembly Constitutional Amendment 20 (No. 15 on the November ballot) is passed. We sincerely believe that a vote for Thomas Kuchel is a vote for good government. We assure you that if he is elected your business will be in honest, capable hands. WHAT IS CAPITAL? We often hear talk of capital and labor as though they were wholly unrelated and on opposite sides of the fence. But, actually, they are mutually dependent. Each needs the other. There is no fundamental conflict between them.

TAYLOR Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California crift and debt are incompattion with the depression, with all attendant hardships and bitter appointments, to re-establish soundness of that simple truth the minds of the American peobut there are increasing and rerising indications that the leshas been learned! American agriculture, for example, is making substantial headin paying off the huge incedness which has sapped and ermined the farming industry despite the fact that the averfarmer, during the last few years, has been fighting for his existence, with his income at lowest ebb in decades. In 1928, prior to "the crash," the boom conditions—at least in cities—encouraging extravagance and obscuring the need of aft, the farm mortgage debt in United States totaled $9,500,-1000! In 1936, with farm recovery still from complete, but with virally every farmer stripped for bon and determined to climb to solid ground, the debt has been reduced to $7,500,000,000! Part of the credit for that rekable accomplishment, in the case of seemingly insurmountable tactles, should rightfully go to Farm Credit administration and other agencies which have an of tremendous assistance in doing the farmer to put his house order. But the major share of credit, even making allowance of federal aid, should go to the individual farmer who has been other dollar stays in his own pocket." And reflecting the immediate benefits of the farm debt readjustment program, as well as the general improvement in conditions, Governor Myers reports that the index price for farm products has increased nearly three billion since February, 1933; that gross farm income has increased nearly three billion since 1932; and that the farm real estate market has been increasingly active, with advancing prices. Lower farm overhead, due, in part, to reduced indebtedness and lower interest charges, has been a major factor in the improved farm outlook. If the farming industry, by dint of hard work, personal sacrifice and careful management, is eventually successful in reducing farm indebtedness to normal proportions, it is safe to say that agriculture will be able to cope with most of its other problems both successfully and expeditiously. Interest and payments on principal, in times past, have been the two items in the farmer's budget which defied reduction in times of stress and forced retrenchment. CHASING THE ELUSIVE DOLLAR The other day when France devalued her franc, Russia bobs up and offered 1,000,000 pound sterling at any price she could get. The good looking young man who has charge of Uncle Sam's war chest at once countered with an order for $5,000,000 of gold at the market price so as to crack down on Moscow in order to stabilize the currency. Many sad and perplexed taxpayers are hoping that they know what they are doing with public money. If you pay for an article more than the price for which it is offered for sale just in order to get the article, a fellow out on a limb thinks you are loosening the skids under the fabric.

Y.—Fifty pounds of dynamite, a package no bigger than a soap box but nevertheless capable of blowing up a complete train, last week reached Dr. Edgar Ernst who ordered it from the du Pont factory in Wilmington, Del., to blast a reservoir on his farm at Stanfordville, N. Y. Du Pont hired a whole boxcar for the shipment, nailed the crate to the floor in the middle, sealed the doors, plastered the outside with placards screaming EXPLOSIVES! Coupled to a regular freight train, the car rolled north to Poughkeepsie, N. Y. There a lone engine picked it up, made a special trip 15 miles over a little used line to Stanfordville. Du Pont’s charge for delivery: $1. she would fly from Floyd Bennett Field to the Swedish capital. As the summer wore on, others crossed, but the flight of the Blixen-Bjorkvall Bellanca was constantly postponed, apparently because the pair was finicky about the weather. Suddenly, last week the Stockholm newspaper withdrew its backing. Behind pretty Eva’s back, Bjorkvall bought the plane himself. At a Long Island party two nights later the Baroness heard that he was about to take off alone, hastily bundled into flying togs, dashed at dawn to Floyd Bennett Field where Pilot Bjorkvall at first would not speak to her. Finally she cornered him in a hangar, soon emerged in tears to declare: “I'm grounded... I expect he wishes to have all the publicity. I'm mad, but I'm a lady and cannot swear.” Said he: “What the hell. I better fly solo. I'll take a chance. But having a woman with you. gets drowned, there’d be trouble... is too much responsibility. If I get drowned, okay. But if she After fighting heart-breaking weather for 2,400 befogged and snowy miles, Flyer Bjorkvall plopped into the sea alongside a French trawler, was hauled aboard. Sniffed Baroness Eva “I'm sorry I did not go along. I would not mind a little water.” O’Neill C. Cook of Tionesta appeared at his WPA project wearing a Landon sunflower button shortly lost his job.
