ANAHEIM GAZETTE 25 (ANAHEIM GAZETTE) Exchange Tells Labor Attitude Setting forth that the California Growers exchange is not open to labor unions and proper organization activities but is not used to meet demands for a shop, a statement of policy released recently by Paul S. Strong, general manager, with approval of the board of directors, follows: The California Fruit Growers Exchange is a marketing organization and inasmuch as its operation primarily concerns sales and services as distinguished factory or plant operations, exchange has not had occasion to consider labor policies as needed to matters under its own jurisdiction. The packing house throughout the citrus belt, on market their fruit through exchange, are separately ordered and locally governed. Workers are not subject to jurisdiction of the California Growers exchange and be agricultural in character are not to be subject to the sessions of the National Laboratories act. The exchange has long been an embodiment of collective bargaining connection with own management operations and we would assert this belief for ourselves out according the same private to others.

Its wide variety of natural wonders cannot be duplicated anywhere else, and such scenes as this picture of the Upper Falls of the Yellowstone River lend it charm that cannot be described. Annual School Survey Completed By State Taxpayers' Association Annual School Survey Completed By State Taxpayers' Association California Taxpayers' association today released its annual survey of the public school situation. Through its educational counselor, N. Bradford Trenham, the association summarizes its findings as follows: 1. Since the low point of 1932-33, increases in school costs have been rapid. In some places, average salaries paid and costs incurred have mounted above "prosperity" levels. 2. In the 340 largest districts, the trend is unmistakably upward at a rate exceeding the taxpayers ability to pay. 3. By removing the restriction that limited certain school taxes to building purposes, the legal limit for school maintenance in elementary schools has been more than doubled. Unless carefully checked by local boards of education and citizens, grave danger of excessive tax increases will result. 4. The only effective barrier to a runaway taxing program is control of local budgets before they become effective early in August. 5. School expenditures are increasing faster than population growth and faster than the increase in the cost of living. 6. Careful planning now and resistance to pressure for careless spending will prevent a painful readjustment in a few years. 7. During July, citizens should be most concerned with school budgets. Budgets are now being made; they go to county superintendents July 1; they are returned to boards of education July 15; go to the county again July 20; are advertised during the last week of July; and public hearings are held the first week of August. 8. The association recommends that citizens request school officials to explain the proposed budgets and, wherever increases are proposed, that explanations be sought.

Yet there was an actual difference in their flavor when cooked, because only one of them was broiled on a gas range. Startling perhaps, but true. Only gas, among practical fuels, provides genuine broiling. Here's the reason. It takes live heat to broil properly. Furthermore, it takes heat that is instantly adjustable, not merely to moderate or low, but to any of the degrees between. This heat must be constant and uniform. Natural gas alone meets all these requirements! Eat more broiled foods—they taste better, are more healthful. And for other forms of cooking, too, the new gas ranges are without equal.
