Schafer Reviews Relief Problems
To consider community responsibility and preparedness in the time of disaster, and to hear A. L. Schafer, manager of the Pacific branch area of the American National Red Cross which comprises the seven western states and Alaska, more than 100 community leaders from all parts of the county gathered at a dinner meeting in the Orange Legion hall last Thursday evening.
Seven mayors in the county, many city councilmen, county officials, prominent American Legion members, medical men, and Red Cross leaders were there.
Schafer was introduced by Col. M. B. Wellington, Santa Ana, disaster preparedness chairman for the Santa Ana chapter; Rev. M. C. Schollenberger, chairman of the Anaheim chapter, gave the invocation. Alfred Higgins, chairman of the Orange chapter, gave the welcome, to which Harry May of Fullerton responded.
The speaker pointed out that by its congressional chapter the American Red Cross is responsible for the feeding, clothing, sheltering and rehabilitating or re-establishing and re-housing families who have suffered losses they cannot meet. "But," he added, "we are not foolish enough to believe we can do this alone. Every agency that can aid is called into co-operative action from the American Legion to the WPA and CCC enrollees. Only through the confidence the American people have in their Red Cross is it possible to decently and rightly take care of the families who suffer losses."
He cited the awards made to
Five Chosen To Direct Election
Five prominent Orange county citizens were named today to promote the interests of the county's $2,500,000 water board election set for July 27.
Arthur J. McFadden, president of the State chamber of commerce and prominent Santa Ana agriculturalist, will be chairman of the citizens' committee.
The four other members named today are Dian R. Gardner, Orange, president of the farm bureau; Walter Humphrey, Fullerton, member of the Metropolitan Water district board of directors; Willis H. Warner, Huntington Beach, chairman of the Orange County Water district board, and P. A. Palmer, Lido Isle.
Each of the five men represents one of the supervisorial districts in the county. Each will build his own organization of citizens to help promote the bond issue, the success of which means Orange county will get $13,000,000 from the government to construct eight flood control and water conservation dams.
Observers throughout the county familiar with the water program freely predict that the bonds will carry. They point out that the county will get a $15,000,000 water program for an expenditure of but $2,500,000.

illies who have suffered losses they cannot meet. "But," he added,
"We are not foolish enough to believe we can do this alone. Every agency that can aid is called into co-operative action from the American Legion to the WPA and CCC enrollees. Only through the confidence the American people have in their Red Cross is it possible to decently and rightly take care of the families who suffer losses."
He cited the awards made to two families in Louisville, Kentucky, in which the Red Cross will be assisting two widows and their children for several years until the families are again independent. Schafer's recital of his experiences in the recent midwestern flood when he was stationed at Louisville, directing relief operations in Kentucky, was graphic and amazing.
A motion picture, "Behind the Flood Headlines," showing the recent flood scenes, rescue work, and the Red Cross feeding, clothing, sheltering, and re-building the homes of flood victims, closed the meeting.
Attending from Anaheim were: Rev. and Mrs. M. C. Schoilenberger, Dorothy Yungbluth, Chas Griffith, E. P. Hapgood, Sam S. Snodgrass and Mayor Chas Mann.

Orange Prorate To Be Continued
Will Operate On Voluntary Basis Regardless of Federal Ruling
Proration of California valencia oranges will continue on a voluntary basis, even though Secretary of Agriculture Wallace may deom it necessary to suspend issuance of weekly allotments under the federal order due to the shorter crop and higher prices resulting from the freeze last January, it was announced following a joint meeting of the distribution and growers advisory committees of the California-Arizona Orange Grapefruit agency.
This action was unanimous, the committees expressing themselves that it was taken for the protection of both producers and consumers. Prorates were set for next week as usual and were submitted to Washington for approval.
The committees also voted unanimously to continue their other functions of estimating crops and maintaining records of shipments and to continue the usual assess-
for this purpose. Governrepresentatives present at

of the regular proration plan with
the beginning of the new season
next fall.
The declared purpose of the
Agricultural act is to secure parity
of purchasing power for agricultural producers. The secretary
has indicated from Washington
that he is not permitted to con-
tainue and enforce regulation of
shipments because, according to
the government's interpretation,
the price on California valencias
has risen above parity.
From the growers' viewpoint,
the committees recognize that in
many instances the higher prices
do not offset the additional expense of heating the groves and
segregating the damaged fr
