Motorists Continue To Pay Heavy Taxes
More than $220,000,000 a year in "temporary" gasoline taxes imposed by federal and state governments during depression years as emergency measures continue to be imposed upon the motor-ing public, according to figures received by the Automobile Club of Southern California. Chief among these taxes is the duplicating federal gasoline tax, which is estimated to have cost the motorist $190,000,000 the past year.
Much Money Expended for Nothing
"The King was in his office Counting out his money.
The Queen had spent so much of it He thought it awfully funny. He asked the why and wherefore If it had gone for clothes; And she replied emphatically A full ten thousand No's."
"He did a little seeking To see what he could see;
And finally in the bath-room Solved the mystery.
She'd listened to her neighbors And bought a million cures.
And wasted all the Kingdom's gold in things that were absurd."
Attempts at self cures are the most costly and dangerous practice. Let the Jackson Drug Co. secure a doctor for you.

State Will Record Eastern Car Thefts
With 1493 cars reported stolen in California during November and 1143 received, E. Raymond Cato, chief of the California Highway patrol, proposed today the indexing of car theft reports from eastern states.
"We have under consideration," Chief Cato said, "the indexing of theft reports from eastern states, due to the large number of out of state vehicles which enter California. We feel that this indexing will be gladly received by the major enforcement agencies, upon inquiry to this department, if the cars of suspected non-residents, or the occupants themselves, are wanted elsewhere."
September Highest For Drunk Driving
Persons arrested for drunken driving on the highways of California during September were nearly twice that of any month in state's history, Ray Ingels, director of the state motor vehicle department, said in his monthly report to Governor Frank F. Merriam.
Of the 3112 persons arrested for driving while intoxicated, Ingels said, 1072 were convicted, and it is "quite evident that many persons have not learned that gasoline and alcohol form a dangerous and expensive mixture."

Dance Pavilion to Open this Week End
Public dances will be held every Wednesday and Saturday evening between 8:30 and 1 o’clock at the Cinderella ballroom, 243½ W. Center street, it was announced today by Hal Pixley, manager and leader of Hal Pixley’s Western Pals who will furnish the music.
The first dance will be held Saturday evening.
Hal Pixley’s band is well known in Anaheim, having played for dances sponsored by several organizations here.
“We are catering especially to a slightly older group of people than are usually found at a public dance. We are seeking the patronage of married couples from 30 to 45 years of age,” Pixley said today in commenting on his dances.
TIME TO TAKE THE Second Step
When friend husband puts on a demonstration of his culinary prowess, there’s less chance of a botched-up job if he practices his art on a modern electric range. And if the kitchen is also equipped with the many other electrical aids to amateur cooks, then he can really let his imagination run riot without thought of failure.
Today’s trend toward the All-Electric Kitchen is unmistakable. Women everywhere are changing over their kitchens. When you bought an electric refrigerator, you took the first step toward your own electric kitchen. Now take the second step—a modern electric range. See the new models on display at your dealer.
Adoption of the six-hour day for railway employees, according to findings of the Interstate Commerce commission, would increase the operating expense of America’s railroads $597,000,000 annually—a time when the roads are just emerging from the most disastrous slump in their history.
It is estimated that it would force an immediate increase of per cent in freight rates, together with the discontinuance of main trains and lines which could not operate at a profit with such terrific increase in overhead.
To California farmers, who pay 41 per cent of all freight costs in the state, it would mean millions of dollars in added freight charge at a time when they are havi-

He stated many fatal accidents have occurred in this county because failed to see the stop signs shed into cars having the way. If you are going to stop signs, put them on or corners then at least the drivers will see the road stop.
DEN OPPORTUNITY
Highways of Orange county crowded with cars bearing state licenses. Each one of cars is filled with tourists to glimpse the California of dreams. Associated with magic land in their minds is the thought of oceans of California popies. Santa Anans are plowing up their vacant lots and planting poppy seed with the thought of making these dreams a reality. Many of the tourists will stay in California, and it will not be surprising if many of them select Santa Ana as their permanent home. Ask a psychiatrist and he will tell you that yellow is a color that promotes optimism. It is the color of the sunshine that warms our bodies and brings us health; it is the color of the golden apples that hang so heavy upon our trees; it is the color of the metal that first called men to California in '49. Other communities will be wise in following the example set by the city of Dons and Saints.
The FARMERS CORNER
by RALPH H-TAYLOR
Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California
There was a time when capital, forgetting oldisms, should deal rationally with each other, to build together for their welfare, that time is the 37. Less recovery, to be sure, almost within reach; there difficulty in carrying the present load.
And it would place California farmers at an impossible disadvantage with their eastern, southern and middle-western competitors, as the products of this state necessarily face a much longer haul to market.
Camp Seeley Is Open To Public
Mantled by heavy drifts of snow which have transformed the country into a wintry fairyland, Los Angeles Municipal Camp Seeley is ready for the record crowds of sports enthusiasts pouring in for winter week ends.
Toboggan slides, sled runs, ski courses and all other facilities of the camp are in top shape for the customers, as are the skis, toboggan's and ash-can lids.
From Los Angeles, the camp is reached via Foothill boulevard to San Bernardino, north at Arrowhead avenue and up the high-gear highway. At Mount Andreson, a lateral road circles off and recrosses the route over a bridge; turn right and proceed through Crestline to Camp Seeley. Los Angeles to Camp Seeley is 75 miles.
Don't fail to make last-minute inquiries before taking off for these mountain areas, as storms may block the roads, it is warned.

Thou wilt shew me the path of life."
One of the Bible selections in the Lesson-Sermon includes these passages from John: "Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of

For there was a time when land capital, forgetting oldisms, should deal rationally reasonably with each other, to build together for their welfare, that time is the 1937.
Less recovery, to be sure, almost within reach; there is marked and reassuring moment in virtually every business and industry, just has been improvement inure.
The ground gained has been tremendous cost, both in governmental expenditures on the pump and in per capita and borrowings on the general public and business.
Short-sighted public policy time, or selfish, grasping on the part of large seeking to benefit at the other groups and other citizens, could quickly materially recovery into new disaster.
Please in point, the announcement of the railroad brothroat attempt to have conquer all railroad workers a day, with eight hours when such workers already one of the highest skilled wage scales in the United States both economically unde exceedingly dangerous. Action of the six-hour day away employees, according logs of the Interstate Commission, would increase rating expense of American $597,000,000 annually at when the roads are just going from the most disastrous in their history.
Estimated that it would an immediate increase of 23% in freight rates, together the discontinuance of many and lines which could not at a profit with such an increase in overhead.
California farmers, who pay percent of all freight costs in rice, it would mean millions in added freight charges one when they are having difficulty in carrying the present load.
And it would place California farmers at an impossible disadvantage with their eastern, southern and middle-western competitors, as the products of this state necessarily face a much longer haul to market.
To thousands of farmers, it would bring quick threat of bankruptcy at a time when they have just begun to see light ahead.
California agriculture is not unsympathetic to labor's desire for improved wage scales, nor does it hold any brief for the railroads—except where it believes they are threatened with ruinous burdens which would inevitably be transferred to their shippers.
But few California farmers have ever achieved even a 10-hour day, let alone a six-hour day, nor have they achieved an average rate of pay more than $1 an hour, as railroad trainmen and enginemen enjoy. And when it is proposed to make the farmer "pay the freight" for a six-hour day for railroad workers, without extending such benefits to other workers, it is about time for farmers to start writing letters to their congressmen.
Certainly California agriculture cannot afford a 23 per cent increase in freight rates. Nor can the railroad workers—with unemployment in their craft ended for the first time in years—a afford to risk another plunge into depression.
The railroadmen should reconsider; if they expect their employers to be fair with them, they should be willing to be fair to their employers. And if they expect agriculture to continue to ante up 41 per cent of their pay-checks, they should deal fairly with the farmer.
So live that when your summons comes you needn't ask the public to suspend judgment.
Another advantage of a virtuous life is that you don't need a strong-arm friend to smash the cameras.

Lawrence Cobb
Chosen Leader
Of Al Malaikah
Shriners of Southern California during 1937 will salaam to Lawrence Cobb as illustrious potentate of Al Malaikah temple. Potentate Cobb, chief rabban during 1936, was unanimously elected last week and has already assumed the post honor. He is one of the youngest chieftains ever chosen for any marine temple. For several years he served as president and captain of Al Malaikah patrol.
The new potentate is prominent legal and Masonic circles. He is a member of Henry Knox lodge, Southgate chapter of the Royal Arch, and Golden West Commandery No. 43 of the Knights templar. He has served as state emblemman for four years, and now secretary of the Republican state central committee.
He graduated from Los Angeles Polytechnic high school and the University of Southern California. He served as an aviator in the World War and is active in American Legion affairs.
Chosen to serve with him on the Al Malaikah divan were Joseph Angilly, chief rabban; Harold Joyd, assistant rabban; William Hodes Hervey, high priest andophet; Arthur Loomis, Oriental side; Walter Durgin, treasurer, and George Ramsey, recorder.
Immediately following his election Potentate Cobb announced plans to make 1937 a banner year in the history of Al Malaikah tempee. He was guest of honor at a buffet supper at the Jonahan club undered him by Al Malaikahurtol.
Supply of Lambs To Reduce Price, Report Declares
An 80 per cent increase in the number of lambs on feed in seven western states over the same period a year ago, has made fed lamb the cheapest meat on the market, according to W. P. Wing, manager of the California Wool Growers' association which has initiated a widespread marketing plan for lambs.
California had 277,000 lambs ready for the market at the close of the year. Wing pointed out. He cited the fact that the rising price of wool is another reason why lamb has dropped in price. The pelt of a lamb is worth so much that the meat can be sold at a comparatively low price.
"In California our supply of lambs is 130 per cent greater than that of the last five-year period," he indicated. "We want to move these lambs without loss to the growers and are greatly encouraged by the farmer-consumer campaign under way this month."
