THE GAZETTE IS EQUIPPED AND MANNED TO PRODUCE Fine Job Printing 259 East Center Street VOL. LXVIII ANAHEM The MARCH OF TIME REG. O. S. FAIT OFF. BY THE EDITORS OF TIME The Weekly Newspaper FARM FIRST— WASHINGTON — Chairman Marvin Jones of the house agriculture committee last week minnevered his 86-page farm bill toward the first vote taken in either house on any part of the president's program for the current special session. Relentlessly sidetracking members who tried to introduce unwanted amendments, the house leadership apparently had matters in hand when Wisconsin's Progressive Gerald Boileau managed to introduce an amendment outlawing benefit payments to farmers who, among other things, used converted cotton fields to graze cattle. But dairy farmers rose in strength against cotton farmers and the Boileau amendment was adopted 202-to-188. Then the house farm bill, complete with Boileau amendment, passed 207-to-130. Since the house bill is destined to be rewritten in conference after the senate passes the Pope-McGill bill, administration leaders completed the first month of the special session with the hardest part of their No. 1 job still ahead. Both the house and senate bills Kuchel Cleared of Suspicion by County Official District Attorney's Formal Statement Removes All Misapprehension Any misapprehension which might have remained regarding the part played by Assemblyman Thomas H. Kuchel in the recent trial of Edward Mills and Jerry Miller on charges of packing and shipping frozen fruit were dispelled early this week when District Attorney W. F. Menton issued a statement which completely removed any suggestion that the assemblyman attempted to interfere in any way with the process of justice. Menton unqualifiedly declared that Assemblyman Kuchel had done nothing unethical or improper in connection with the case, adding that if such an impression had been gained that he and his office wished to correct the error, Menton's Statement "It has come to our attention that certain newspaper articles concerning the attempt to disqualify Judge Charles Kuchel of Anaheim, who is an uncle of Thomas H. Kuchel, in the Milk case, concerning frozen oranges, have indicated that this office has implied that our assemblyman from Anaheim, Thomas H. Kuch, Santa Claus will Appear Last Time Tomorrow Santa Claus will make his last appearance on the streets of Anaheim for this year tomorrow afternoon and night, ending a week of personal appearances. The old man from the North Pole will appear at 1 o'clock tomorrow and at 7 o'clock in the evening will board the float which will take him along Center street in the business area. Christmas music will be played from the float, also. Acting as an escort will be a group of members of Boy Scout troop 75, including Don Lehmner, Roger Acton, Lee Thaxton, Tominy Quarton, Ralph Bogoshlan and Frank Ryan. All stores will be open tomorrow evening except some of the food markets, which will close at 6:30 o'clock. It was reported.

Then the house farm bill, complete with Boileau amendment, passed 267-to-130. Since the house bill is destined to be rewritten in conference after the senate passes the Pope-McGill bill, administration leaders completed the first month of the special session with the hardest part of their No. 1 job still ahead. Both the house and senate bills authorized Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace to draw up annual marketing quotas in advance for wheat, corn, cotton, rice and tbacco; to obtain observance of them by means of benefit-paying voluntary contracts. Both bills agree in principle that when reserves on hand grow too large and two-thirds of the producers involved consent through a referendum, compulsory marketing control can be invoked and penalty taxes levied on further sales. Beyond that the house and senate bills have little in common. Chief certainties in the farm bill situation last week were that the eventual compromise would cost more than the appropriations of $500,000,000 already made under the Son Conservation act, that no new farm bill would be ready soon enough for any 1938 crop. K-K-K— WASHINGTON—Major social event of the presidential week was the Gridiron club banquet (for press and politicians) at which the president's remarks are, by strict rule, completely off the record. Sharpest of the six skits written by Washington newspapermen last week concerned Associate Justice Hugo LaFayette 'Black' of the supreme court who, unlike Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes, Associate Justices James C. McReynolds and Harlan Fiske Stone, did not attend. Excerpt: K-K-K-Klansman, Beautiful Klansman, Your're the same K-K-K-Klux I knew before; When the m-m-moon shines Over the White House, We'll be watching at the K-K-K-Kourthouse door!

Menton's Statement "It has come to our attention that certain newspaper articles concerning the attempt to disqualify Judge Charles Kuchel of Anaheim, who is an uncle of Thomas H. Kuchel, in the Milk case, concerning frozen oranges, have indicated that this office has implied that our assemblyman from Anaheim, Thomas H. Kuchel, has attempted to obstruct or interfere with this prosecution. This office has never charged nor intimated that any conduct of Assemblyman Thomas H. Kuchel in connection with this case has beer, unethical or improper. “If such an impression has been gained by any person, we wish to correct the error at this time. We have no information, affidavits or statements which would justify such a conclusion. Mr. Kuchel, acting as attorney for some of the orange growers in Anaheim and vicinity, did register vigorous protest against what he believed was unnecessarily severe inspection and condemnation of oranges, and endeavored to join for his clients, relief from what they believed to be unjust confiscation of oranges. "We do not now, and never have felt that he did anything wrongful in looking after the interests of his clients. "I gladly take this opportunity of clearing Mr. Kuchel from any criticism. I regret that Mr. McCabe is not here to join with me in this statement, but he is in Sacramento today, investigating another phase of the case." W.F.MENTON, "District Attorney." Decision Awaited A certified copy of the transcript of records of Use Anaheim justice court in which Deputy District Attorney Harold McCabe asked for a change of venue for the re-trial of the fruit case has been presented to the state judicial council in San Francisco. Decision as to when and where the new trial of the defendants will be held is expected at any time. Judge Charles Kuchel, who was on the bench when the first trial ended in a deadlock, withdrew from the case a week ago today without hearing argument from either the state or the defense. Engineers Elect Crippled Children Guests at Party Anaheim Lions Club Brings Joy to Youngsters of Orange County Christmas time was made considerably happier for a group of about 60 Orange county youngsters whose crippled little bodies prohibit them from enjoying many of the pleasures other children have when they gathered at the Elks clubhouse here last Friday noon for the annual party given by the Anaheim Lions club. Every effort was made by members of the service club to provide a program of unusual entertainment for the youngsters, many of whom are unable to walk. So that no child would be disappointed in the gift left by Santa Claus, members of the club learned in advance what each little guest desired the most. That article was furnished, regardless of cost. Gifts are Given Presentation of the gifts by Santa Claus came at the conclusion of an afternoon of entertainment which featured a puppet show offered by Dr. E. L. Barbour of Alhambra. More than 30 dolls were used, depicting such mythical characters as Maggie and Jiggs, Amos n' Andy, Willie McCarthy and Oswald, Popeye, Mickey Mouse, Little Bo Peep and Spanish dancing dolls. Another of the dolls was called Shirley Temple. At the conclusion of the puppet show Dr. Barbour gave the children a demonstration on how the puppets were operated. The children were guests at the luncheon of the Lions club before the afternoon's entertainment and then were provided with ice cream and cake at the conclusion of the afternoon. Assisting members of the Lions club were their wives. Many Aid Event Wayne Griggs was in charge of planning the party, assisted by J. Fred Sidebottom. The puppet show was obtained through the efforts of Charles Rockwell. Other members of the club serving on committees were Louis H. Hoskins, chairman of house arrangements; Henry DuBois, candy and refreshment; M. E. Beebe, Merle "SCORCHED EARTH" NANKING, China — Around China's erstwhile capital, Nanking, raw, undrilled Chinese youths were last week flung against advancing Japanese regulars, and were horribly butchered. The crack, German-drilled Chinese 88th division, under ruthless officers and conserving its own strength, drove the Chinese recruits forward and shot in the back those who broke and ran. Twelve miles from Nanking 300 Chinese were surrounded atop a hill by Japanese who set fire to the long grass. It burned fiercely, completely around the hill, and slowly forced the 300 Chinese to the top. There Japanese machine guns, firing into the ring of fire and smoke, killed them almost to a man. In Shanghai, Generalissimo Chiang's big banker brother-in-law T. V. Soong, still remaining in the International Settlement, despite reports that he had fled, declared: "I predict that within three months—providing we can hold out, which I am sure we can—Japan will be on the verge of bankruptcy and facing revolution!" To achieve this aim, Chinese were burning down whole cities, such as Chinkiang 40 miles east of Nanking, destroying millions of dollars worth of Chinese property in a "scorched earth policy" to make conquest as difficult as possible for Japan. It took 48 hours of steady slugging at the walls of Nanking and bitter hand-to-hand fighting in the street be (Continued on Page 6) Engineers Elect Year's Officers R. L. Patterson of Newport Beach was Friday elected president of the Orange County Engineers club at the regular meeting of that organization in Fullerton. E. B.

Vagrants Ordered to Leave Anaheim Homer Pemberton and Jack O'Farrell, transients, arrested over the past week end for begging on the streets were given 30-day suspended sentences Monday and ordered out of town by City Judge Frank Tausch. Pemberton was booked for vagrancy and O'Farrell for intoxication. Both were ordered to clean the jail yard before departing. Many Aid Event Wayne Griggs was in charge of planning the party, assisted by J. Fred Sidebottom. The puppet show was obtained through the efforts of Charles Rockwell.

Brown, president of the service club, presided during the afternoon. The clubhouse was furnished through the courtesy of the Anaheim Lodge of Elks and the Mutual Citrus Products company contributed punch for the youngsters during the refreshment hour. Mrs. Wayne Griggs assisted her husband in purchasing and wrapping the toys given the children and other wives of Lion club members aided in decorating the hall. Tools are Stolen from Garage Here Someone who apparently knew that James Vines, 708 N. Sabina street, kept a large quantity of tools in his garage took advantage of the family's absence from home last Friday to steal the equipment. Vine placed the value of the tools at about $150. The owner told police that the garage had been left unlocked. More than 35 individuals tools, plus a quantity of solder and a miscellaneous assortment of taps and dies were stolen, Vines said.

The Swedish story is that in olden times, mysterious lights shone from the branches of a particular tree during the Christmas season. The Vikings told of three messengers, Faith, Hope and Love, who were sent by the Lord to light a balsam fir tree. The German stories associate the lighting of trees with shining stars as seen through (Continued on page 5) Alberta V.
