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 259 East Center Street, Anaheim, Calif. MRS. HENRY KUCHEL — THEODORE B. KUCHEL Editors and Publishers HOW DICTATORS WORK— Late news from Italy shows how the minds of dictators work. To quote dispatch: "Fascist Italy, angered by printed jeers at the prowess of Italian fighters in Spain, virtually broke off press relations with Great Britain today." An official order recalled all Italian correspondents from London, and banned all but three English newspapers from Italy. Thus dictatorship achieves its ends by keeping its people in darkness, and shutting them away from any knowledge, any facts, any opinion which may suggest that the man or the party in power is less than perfect. Under various dictatorships the right to vote in free and honest elections has been taken from the people. The right of free speech has been taken from them. The right of a free press has been taken from them. Between the United States and such tyranny stands the Constitution—a living document, reasonably interpreted by uncontrolled, non-political judges. We must be continually on our guard lest, in our eagerness for seeming advantage, we knowingly sacrifice the liberties for which millions of men fought during centuries of bloody history. IS THIS SEDITION?— For some time back we have heard reports that the hope of the Republican Party was in a return to the fold of femininity. Then, again, we have heard it said that the strength of the Democrats was in their hold on the ladies—collectively, we mean. We've even heard it mentioned that the Communists were looking hopefully at the women's vote, apparently Some of the bitter compass of radical members of the legislature, during post-moons on the session just ended, reminiscent of the classic reel of a father, suffering from mental blindness, who exclaimed as his son's regiment parade "Everybody's out of step but son, John!" Out-of-step dissenters, based their home districts, will undoubtedly seek to excuse their own effectiveness by denouncing fellow lawmakers as "reary." The truth of the matter, ever, is that the 1937 legislation when it convened, promised one of the most liberal in state's history. But liberals radical and defeated their cause. It was the old, old stoic carrying things to extremes, the inevitable reaction set. The United States constitution begins, "We, the people." And in the final analysis; "We people" rebel when any group faction, suddenly elevated to finance, attempts to ride rickshod over the rights of the plea as a whole. To that fact—and that alone—can be credited the end of almost the entire labor gram at the 1937 session. never started a session with ter prospects nor ended with And the sober, thoughtful bers of labor recognize full that they owe their defeat, not the employing class, but to calls in their own camp who mandred the world with a gold around it—and who consequ IS THIS SEDITION?— For some time back we have heard reports that the hope of the Republican Party was in a return to the fold of femininity. Then, again, we have heard it said that the strength of the Democrats was in their hold on the ladies—collectively, we mean. We’ve even heard it mentioned that the Communists were looking hopefully at the women’s vote, apparently thinking their bright colors might prove an unfailing lure to the more decorative sex. But now comes word of out-and-out sedition in the feminine ranks—at least in California. Some of the ladies, it seems, want a Women’s Party and they’ve nominated Mrs. W. D. James of Hanford, past president of the California Federation of Women’s Clubs, as their candidate for governor. Dr. Louise May Ritchie, campaign manager for Mrs. James, explains the secession movement thusly: “California has never had a woman governor. After watching the performances of some of the men, I think it is time to put a woman on the job. Mrs. James is just the woman for the place.” And on that succinct and straight-forward platform the ladies take their stand. Just how many women will stand with them is still a matter for conjecture. We’ve never quite decided whether women like women most—or whether, per chance, they prefer men. But next year’s balloting should resolve all doubts. May the best man—or woman—win!

But liberals went local and defeated their own cause. It was the old, old story of buying things to extremes, until inevitable reaction set in.

That fact—and that fact—can be credited the defeat almost the entire labor program at the 1937 session. Labor started a session with bet-prospects nor ended with less. The sober, thoughtful memoir of labor recognize full well they owe their defeat, not to employing class, but to radiate in their own camp who deduced the world with a gold rim and it—and who consequently and heed the counsel of its more conservative leaders. If it fails to do so, it must reckon with "We, the people"—and the people include producers, consumers, taxpayers, employers, professional workers and millions of others whose rights are just as vital as the rights of labor. Sheppard Tells Status of Plan General Outline On Flood Control Project Given By Congressman Congressman Harry R. Sheppard has received over 200 letters from Orange county residents during the past ten days asking the status of the Orange county flood control project. Sheppard stated that these letters were being answered as rapidly as possible and in order to present a general answer he issued the following statement. The economic future of a portion of Orange county is dependent upon the execution and completion of the flood control program as approved by Congress under Public Law 738, 74th congress. Second session. Never before or perhaps never again will Orange county have as fair a proposition offered as that contained under Public Law 738 of the 74th congress." Public Law 738 provides that Orange county shall provide all costs of lands and damages. The portion of the law affecting Oran- Edward Backs Tells Experience At Citrus Fruit Auction Of "I wish every exchange grower could have been with me on a recent eastern trip during which I visited the fruit auctions in Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia and New York," is the statement of Edward P. Backs, vice president of the Placentia Mutual Orange association and alternate director on the central exchange board from the Placentia Orange County exchange. "I was very much impressed with the soundness of the exchange organization and the fine calibration of men we have representing us in the eastern markets," Backs said. "It is scarcely possible for a grower to have any conception of the high standing of 'Sunkist' and of our salesmen unless he can take the time to visit our sales offices and the auction sales and mingle with the trade in these big markets. "'Sunkist' and everything connected with it is tops with the trade. In fact, one gets the impression that the exchange stands contained in Public Law 738. "Whether you vote a bond issue of $2,500,000 or $3,500,000 will make no difference in so far as the war department is concerned at the present time. You are assured, however, that you must meet all costs of lands and damages. "There are two other factors of great importance to keep in mind and they are, first, not one dollar's worth of bonds need be sold until called for by the war department; second, that bond issues of this type are usually voted for a specific purpose and cannot be diverted from the specific purpose for which they are voted. "With these two factors in mind the size of the bond issue does not matter for eventually the citizens higher in the markets with some of its own am convinced that may do not half appreciate exchange means to their contrast: the trade and sales force cannot under every grower is not an tie member of it. "The trade are for They like a strong one market because they money on such a man than on a weak, declining he said.

We get a ket can pay and as fo like collusion among you have but to watch ferent nationalities and buyers bidding against to see how impossible bination of buyers would salesmen tell me that more likely to have seen in a small private store where they are only two customers."

As a retruck drivers still continue work from 12 to 16 hours a day, read of benefiting by shorter fairness to the labor leadership at Sacramento, however, it would be pointed out that the conservative representatives, are willing to "give and" and "live and let live," the constantly embarrassed and armed by the demands of radifighting for command of the war forces and seeking spectacvities to aid their cause. In these radical groups, the fact of drastic increases in the costs workmen's compensation inence would have boosted the therer's overhead by millions of dars was of no consequence. The theory, apparently, was that the farmer take care of himwe're paid to take care of it!" And in passing, it should noted that the farmer did take of himself—with the result the bills were killed. The same radical wing, again, a complete disregard of the therer's rights, sought to force through a series of "make-work" road bills which would have required the employment of adnual railroad workers, regarding of need and regardless of what would have happened to right rates. These bills, likese were killed. Public Law 738 provides that Orange county shall provide all costs of lands and damages. The portion of the law affecting Orange county reads, "Construction of reservoirs and related flood-control works for protection of metropolitan area in Orange county, California, in accordance with plans to be approved by the chief of engineers on recommendation of the board of engineers for rivers and harbors, at an estimated construction cost not to exceed $13,000,000; estimated cost of lands and damages, $3,500,000." In commenting on Public Law 738 Sheppard said, "You will note that the law provides that Orange county must provide costs of lands and damages which are estimated in the bill as being 3,500,000. According to reports from the Orange county board of supervisors and the war department engineers no definite figure of these costs have been arrived at as yet. "It is true that General Markham, chief of the war department engineers, has stated that approval of a $2,500,000 bond issue would indicate the intent of Orange county to meet required conditions and that this amount should cover any steps now necessary to assure the war department of Orange county's willingness to proceed with their part of the responsibility. "It is not safe to assume that either one million, two million or three million dollars will cover Orange county's portion of the obligation. The war department as yet has not even submitted an estimate of costs of lands and damages and therefore the only figure available is the estimate..." I SEND MY LAUNDERING TO THE SANITARY, WHY???

Los Angeles St. Anaheim, Calif., June 3, 1937 Hils Experiences uit Auction Centers higher in the markets than it does with some of its own growers. I am convinced that many growers do not half appreciate what the exchange means to them, while, in contrast, the trade and our eastern sales force cannot understand why every grower is not an enthusiastic member of it. "The trade are for prorates. They like a strong or advancing market because they can make money on such a market, rather than on a weak, declining market," he said. "My previous experience with a fruit auction consisted of one short visit and it was all Greek to me, but after attending several sales I can see the merit of concentrating all the buying power in these big markets. We get all the market can pay and as for anything like collusion among the buyers you have but to watch all the different nationalities and classes of buyers bidding against each other to see how impossible any combination of buyers would be. Our salesmen tell me that they are more likely to have such trouble in a small private sale market where they are only two or three customers." California citrus is far ahead of eastern states in cooperative marketing efficiency, as evidenced in sales facilities, advertising and standardization of products. Backs believes. The exchange is a big business with "big business" sales methods that compare very favorably with anything he has seen in other lines, says this citrus grower, who has traveled extensively and has many other business interests. "One of the problems of a big co-operative like our Sunkist organization, or even like our local association is to have the memincome per hen kept was the highest of any of the past ten years. This is due to most of the co-operators in the study selling a considerable amount of live poultry as broilers or fryers. The record also shows that mortality continues to be the greatest single problem of the industry, although most flocks in the study showed an improvement or decrease in per cent of mortality from the 1935 figure. No single effort will so help the poultryman in his management as a month to month knowledge of mortality and egg production, and a complete analysis of his annual record, such as that shown by the cost study, it was said.
