These problems have been presented to the directors by members of the booster body, the secretary said. The board of directors of the chamber of commerce held its regular meeting last Thursday noon at which time President Harry C. Arthur, Sr., announced the selection of five committees. Trade Committee A group of seven men was appointed to investigate and recommend methods for keeping trade in Anaheim. President Arthur named O. E. Hanson, Steve Gallagher, Ted Masterson, Arnold Howard, Charles Harbeson, Charles Atwell and Al DeWitt to make this investigation. Following a suggestion of several merchants that something be done to eliminate or curb the activities of house-to-house peddlers in Anaheim, President Arthur named another committee to study that problem. Leo J. Friis, W. G. Gordon, R. J. Rossberg, John Cyprien, Les Moon and K. B. Rigby were chosen for the task. Another committee of vital importance is that on the parking situation in business area. Several previous attempts by the chamber of commerce to solve that problem have met with only minor success. Seven men, L. C. Herron, August E. Schumacher, Henry M. Adams, George Holden, Herbert Eldred, Fred Clough and E. P. Hapgood, were assigned by Arthur to consider and recommend ways and means of improving the parking facilities in the business zone. It is the hope of the committee to find a program which will be effective both for the present and the future. Plan Music Program The chamber plans to cooperate with the National Music week by presenting a community song program in the city park amphitheater in May. Selected as members of the committee to work out details of the program were Fred Schmidt, Rev. Henry Gross, Dr. H. A. Nelson, Dr. Neils Boege, Dr. C. Irvin, E. C. Kendrick and L. P. Howe. President Arthur also selected a committee to cooperate with the United States Chamber of Commerce in the "What Helps Business, Helps You" campaign. Members of this group are Victor G. Loly, L. H. Loudon, Ted Kuchel, Forrest F. Fowler, Paul Davidson, Council Considers Request That Patt Street Be Given New Name The industrial area in the northeast part of Anaheim, already the recipient of considerable attention in the past several weeks, may receive added emphasis in the near future, it became apparent this week. The city council Tuesday evening received and considered a proposal by the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce to change the name of Patt street to Industrial street. In the letter, which was signed by Secretary John A. Morgan, it was pointed out that the present name of the street has no particular significance." Designating the thoroughfare as Industrial street would be in keeping with the area it serves and would give an indication of where it is located. Tract Draws Notice Two recent occurrences have brought the tract before the attention of the residents of the city, most recent being the purchasing of a site in the tract by Cal-Jpices, Inc., as the location of its new citrus juice canning plant. Last fall the city council designated a previously unnamed street in the tract as Commercial street. In the same communication from the chamber of commerce it was suggested that the city officially adopt as its slogan, "Home of the Valencia Orange." The letter said that the slogan was formerly used, but has been unused during recent years. It was pointed out that valencia oranges production is the principal activity in the area and that Anaheim should advertise that fact. The council took no definite action on the communication deciding to refer the matter of the slogan back to the chamber of commerce for further investigation and to take the matter of changing the name of Patt street under advisement. Reclamation Urged Another communication was received from the Orange County farm bureau in which organization requested this city, together with other county cities, to reclaim sewage water in line with the resolution recently adopted by the farm bureau. City Parking Meters Speaker's Topic First Dollar Day For Year Will Be Held Thursday February 17 Parking meters provide an effective method of controlling parking in the business area of a town members of the Anaheim Merchants association were told this morning by E. F. Heisser of Glendale, speaker at the meeting Heisser had on display one of the meters and described its operation. The problem of providing adequate parking facilities for prospective purchasers is the biggest question the cities of United States have at this time, the speaker declared. A survey conducted in several cities reveal that about one-half of the cars parked in the business areas of cities are those of merchants, professional persons and their employees, he added. Regulatory Device The parking meter is a regulatory device and not a money maker, Heisser pointed out. It efficiently provides more parking space for customers by keeping cars moving. It also eliminates double parking and other bad parking practices, Heisser said. Use of the meters is increasing throughout the nation, the speaker declared, although they have been in existence only about two years Long Beach has used them for a year and an investigation revealed... Two More Killed In Auto Mishaps Total of traffic deaths in Orange county this year mounted to 11 last week end when two women succumbed to injuries received in accidents. The victims were Miss Minnie E. McLellan, 53, of Santa Ana and Mrs. Angelina Rochin, 26, of Independence Square, near Norwalk. Miss McLellan died Friday evening at St. Joseph's hospital from injuries received a week ago last night when she was struck by a car driven by Roger S. Brown, 23, of Santa Ana. Mrs. Rochin died about midnight Friday after falling from an automobile driven by her husband, Yanacio Rochin, earlier in the evening. Check Charge Faces Man in Court Here Felony charges of issuing worthless checks have been filed against Bob Holcomb with the preliminary examination scheduled to be held in Anaheim justice court next week. Holcomb is accused of passing three worthless checks here. He was arrested in Santa Ana on a drunk driving charge and investigation disclosed he is a parole violator from San Quentine. Reclamation Urged Another communication was received from the Orange County farm bureau in which that organization requested this city, together with other county cities, to reclaim sewage water in line with the resolution recently adopted by the farm bureau. City Clerk Charles E. Griffith was instructed to request further suggestions and recommendations from the farm bureau. Fire and theft insurance on the city's fleet of automobiles and trucks for current year was awarded to R. L. Royalty, who last week submitted the low bid of $84,30. City Engineer E. P. Hapgood was authorized to install approximately 1075 feet of eight-inch sewer line along Commercial street, connecting with the property of Cal-Juices, Inc. Building Activity in Anaheim Shows Loss Building activity in Anaheim last month was considerably less than during the first month of last year. Building Inspector R. Nyboe reported this week. Since February 1 only one permit has been granted, that to Paul Melhon for termite work at 411 S. Melrose street costing $90. During January 18 permits were issued. Valuation of the permits was $18,066. Twenty-one permits were granted during the first month of last year, carrying a total valuation of $83,315, Nyboe reported. RUNDSTROM SEATED Robert Rundstrom was seated as the new president of the Anaheim Toastmasters club at the organization's meeting Tuesday evening. The parking meter is a regular tory device and not a money maker. Heisser pointed out. It efficiently provides more parking space for customers by keeping cars moving. It also eliminates double parking and other bad parking practices. Heisser said. Use of the meters is increasing throughout the nation, the speaker declared, although they have been in existence only about two years. Long Beach has used them for a year and an investigation revealed that townspeople and merchants alike approve of them, the speaker said. President L. C. Herron announced that the first city-wide dollar day of the year will be held on February 17. He appointed committee composed of Wayne Griggs, August Schumacher, Charles Atwell and Miss Irene Case to contact the merchants of the city and obtain their agreement participate in' the event.

Chief witness of the state at the preliminary examination was David S. Alshouse, 240 E. Center street. He testified to witnessing the accident from the window of the hotel in which he lives. He estimated the speed of Ramirez's automobile shortly before it struck Mrs. Bohrs at about 50 miles an hour and said that he had seen the woman on the northeast corner of Center and Emily streets shortly before she was struck by the automobile, but did not see her crossing the street. The accident occurred on the south side of Center street. Other state's witnesses were Dr. J. W. Truxaw, who testified to the woman's injuries which were on the right side of her body, and Earl Vipond, Anaheim police officer, who investigated the accident. Two youths were called by Attorney T. L. McFadden for the defense. Both testified that Mrs. Bohr had entered the pedestrian zone from the south side of the street and had walked from behind an automobile which was parked at the curb.

He told of activities at the Western Fruit Growers packing house on the night of July 3, last, when the fruit in question was inspected and ordered held and of the condemnation proceedings in superior court and the ultimate disposal of the fruit to products. McCabe also told the court that Mills had hired a detective to watch activities of inspectors and that the defendant had also attempted to have the inspectors changed. He closed his remarks by declaring that the evidence showed criminal intent on the part of the defendants. Mrs. Belford spoke only briefly, emphasizing that the facts of the case pointed to deliberate conspiracy to ship fruit in violation of the state agricultural code. Kaufman told the court he advised his clients to plead guilty because he believed that no jury would ever agree on a verdict. He pointed out that the case was based entirely on matters which required the judgment of individuals and that disagreement was natural. No Criminal Intent The attorney stressed that if any criminal action had been taken by the defendants that it was unintentional. He pointed out that the agreement between Mills and Miller was that the latter would pack and ship fruit under the law. Kaufman also told the court that Mills had nothing to do with the picking, hauling or packing of the oranges. Webb declared that Anaheim Community Grocers had All officers and directors of J.-H.

Rounds said Tuesday in his talk before members of the Anaheim Kiwanis club. The speaker spent several years in that country in YMCA work. He is now representative of the national YMCA on the Pacific coast and secretary of the international committee of the YMCA.

Rounds was introduced by Arthur G. Porter, chairman of the day. J. B. Wilbur, Anaheim YMCA secretary, was a guest at the meeting. Musical entertainment was furnished by Bruce Buell of Santa Ana, who sang three selections accompanied by Miss Katherine Steward.

No Criminal Intent The attorney stressed that if any criminal action had been taken by the defendants that it was unintentional. He pointed out that the agreement between Mills and Miller was that the latter would pack and ship fruit under the law. Kaufman also told the court that Mills had nothing to do with the picking, hauling or packing of the oranges. Webb declared that the Anaheim Community Growers had shipped more fruit than any other Anaheim house and that only two charges had been filed against the association. Mills was acquitted on the other complaint. He also said that no complaint had been received from customers or agents on fruit which had been shipped. The attorney commented on the fact that the defendants were employees of packing associations and did not benefit financially from fruit which was shipped.
