THE GAZETTE IS EQUIPPED AND MANNED TO PRODUCE Fine Job Printing 259 East Center Street VOL. LXVIII 10 PAGES Huge Flood Sale Offers Unusual Values to Buyer Chamber of Commerce and Merchants Association Give Full Support A survey of Anaheim business houses at noon today revealed great interest in the city-wide flood sale which opened this morning. The Gazette issued a special edition last night bringing the message of merchants to their customers. The city-wide sale has the entire backing and support of the Anaheim Merchants association and the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. These two organizations are standing behind the merchants' guarantees that merchandise being placed on sale is usable. Purchasers are assured they will receive goods that far exceed in value the amount of money paid. Most merchandise to be placed on sale is only slightly damaged, but Anaheim business men fully realize that to attempt to sell such stock as new would betray the confidence the public has in their concerns.

Burns Are Fatal To Anaheim Man Lewis Vernon Barnes Victim of Accident at Home Last Wednesday Horribly burned in an accident at his home on Katella road last Wednesday evening. Lewis Vernon Federal Housing Program Revives Building Trades William Harris Explains At Chamber of Commerce Lurcheon Meeting Anaheim and Orange county are lagging behind other sections of southern California in taking advantage of the Federal Housing Administration's building program. William Harris declared yesterday noon in addressing the general membership of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. Harris discussed the major points in the recently amended FHA act. The FHA is not a government lending agency, nor is it a competitor of any branches of the building industry. Harris said, is merely the largest insurance company in the country and operates as a hard-headed business. It insures private capital where loans are made to finance home building and remodeling, only after certain rigid requirements are fulfilled, he said. Scund Mortgage Market Federal Housing administration has brought about the complete return of private capital to the mortgage market. Experience has proven that a sound mortgage Purchasers are assured they will receive goods that far exceed in value the amount of money paid. Most merchandise to be placed on sale is only slightly damaged, but Anaheim business men fully realize that to attempt to sell such stock as new would betray the confidence the public has in their concerns. Anniversary Sale The S. Q. R. Store, which suffered practically no damage whatever by the flood waters, realizes the benefits to be realized from the sale by residents who lost heavily in the flood, and are cooperating in the city-wide event, holding its 31st anniversary sale at this time. O. II. Renner and August E. Schumacher, owners of this pioneer Anaheim business, have always followed the policy of offering the finest of merchandise for the lowest possible price. During their anniversary sale prices will be reduced so low as to be almost unbelievable. One of the largest stocks of damaged merchandise will be offered by Stroup-Barnes Furniture company. Approximately $30,000 (Please Turn to Page 3) Army Engineers Studying Losses A rigid survey of flood damage in Orange county, with special emphasis on losses in the Anaheim area, is now being conducted by the U. S. army engineers. Actual work on the investigation started a week ago. The same type of survey is being made in Riverside and San Bernardino counties. The work of determining flood damage is expected to consume about 30 days. Meanwhile, no official report is anticipated, as workers are instructed to give out no information. The crew of eight men is under orders to determine losses only. County officials previously established $12,000,000 as the amount of loss to the county. Government aid is being sought for both publicly and privately owned property, which is said to be the cause of the army's investigations. Court to Decide Question of Fees Burns Are Fatal To Anaheim Man Lewis Vernon Barnes Victim of Accident at Home Last Wednesday Horribly burned in an accident at his home on Katella road last Wednesday evening, Lewis Vernon Barnes, 25, died the following evening at an Orange hospital. Funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon from the Hilgenfeld funeral home with Rev. M. H. McGehee, pastor of the Church of Christ, officiating. Interment was in Loma Vista cemetery. Barnes was fatally injured when gasoline on his body was apparently ignited from the flame of a gas water heater as he walked past it. The young man had been repairing his automobile and was entering his home to take a bath. He had washed portions of his body with gasoline in an effort to remove grease and it was this action which is believed to cause the accident which cost his life. Hospital attendants reported that about 85 percent of the man's skin was burned. Burns were of first, second and third degree, it was declared. Barnes is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. L. Barnes of Anaheim; one brother, Marvin M. Barnes of Fullerton; three sisters, Mrs. Lawrence Pitre, of Louisiana and the Misses Vesta M. and Velva M. Barnes, both of Anaheim; paternal grandmother, Mrs. Mary Barnes of Monahan, Texas, and maternal grandmother, Mrs. Nannie Caplinger of Springfield, Missouri. Water Company's Damage $10,000 Flood damage to the property of the Anaheim Union Water company will not exceed $10,000. William T. Wallop, superintendent, declared yesterday. The headgate above Gypsum and about 500 feet of the main ditch were flooded, but none sustained excessive damage and most of them are again working. Another 100 feet of the Gomber basement line was destroyed. This company in the country and operates as a hard-headed business. It insures private capital who loans are made to finance home building and remodeling, only after certain rigid requirements are fulfilled, he said. Scund Mortgage Market Federal Housing administration has brought about the complete return of private capital to the mortgage market. Experience has proven that a sound mortgage market demanded low rate, long term loans based upon good construction. This requirement is met under the terms of FHA, Harry said. By establishing certain requirements which are effective in all parts of the country FHA has helped to stabilize residential property values. Existing properties are assuming their former values and new homes built up (Please Turn to Page 6) Farm Aid Blanks Obtainable Here Application blanks for all farmers in need of aid because of the recent flood are obtainable at the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce office. This service makes possible for Anaheim farmers to open negotiations for assistance without going to Santa Ana. The applications are sent to the Santa Ana office of the Farm Security Administration to determine what assistance is necessary They are then referred to the American Red Cross or the Disaster Loan corporation. Two general classifications have been established for farm applications. They are for loans to landowners to rehabilitate or replace permanent farm improvement and to land owners or tenant farmers for household furnishing or equipment which may not be provided by the Farm Securi administration or the Red Cross. Mrs. Max Junge Called By Death Mrs. Catherine Junge, 79, wife of Max W. Junge, who developed the Junge subdivision in Anaheim died early Tuesday morning County officials previously established $12,000,000 as the amount of loss to the county. Government aid is being sought for both publicly and privately owned property, which is said to be the cause of the army's investigations. Court to Decide Question of Fees The superior court will be asked to determine the legality of the county's new salary ordinance is so far as it pertains to elected officials previously receiving fees. Decision to file mandamus action against the fee officials was reached Tuesday by the board of supervisors. Under the new ordinance the officials were required to turn in their fees to the county and were entitled to a portion of them back. District Attorney W. F. Menton, who will try the case, has ruled that part of the ordinance illegal. James Barnes Dies After Long Illness James "Jimmy" Barnes, ten-year-old son of Mrs. Bertha P. Barnes, who resides at 121 S. Walnut street, Anaheim, died Monday night at an Orange hospital after an extended illness. He is survived by his mother and three sisters, Ann, Millie and Genevieve Barnes, all of Anaheim. Funeral services will be conducted from the Hilgenfeld funeral home Thursday at 2 o'clock. The Rev.

Max Junge Called By Death Catherine Junge, 79, wife of W. Junge, who developed age subdivision in Anaheim, early Tuesday morning at Stockburger, state director of finance, there would be no delay on the part of the state in investigating the need for two grants requested Tuesday night by the Anaheim city council. Mann was instructed to present a copy of the resolution to Governor Merriam and to Stockburger. The city council Tuesday evening passed two resolutions seeking a portion of the state's $5,000,-000 flood relief fund for repair of public property here. One resolution pertains to the joint outfall sewer district and the other to principal streets in Anaheim. A total of $315,000 is requested for reconstruction of sections one and two of the joint outfall sewer district lines and the district's screening plant. That amount would cover the sponsor's share of WPA projects for the work. Amount needed for section one was fixed at $145,000. The screening plant would require $75,000 and $95,000 is necessary for section two of the line. Fullerton and Orange city council will pass the same resolution, while Santa Ana's resolution will pertain only to section one and the screening plant. Applications have already been submitted to WPA officials for a government grant to repair the sewer. Plans for the repair of section one and the screening plant were recently made by the engineers' committee of the district. In its resolution asking for assistance from the state in repairing city streets, the council recited that the damage amounted to $88,000. The request, however, is for only $44,000 which is sufficient to take care of paving streets of major importance which were damaged by flood waters. Los Angeles and Center streets, being parts of the state highway system, are not eligible for repairs under the grant. The resolution specifically named La Palma avenue and Palm street as the streets most in need of repair. Plans call for the repaving of La Palma street from Los Angeles street to a point near West street. An application to WPA for a federal grant to repair streets and alleys in Anaheim was submitted early this week. J. F. Johnson, zone engineer, has assured city officials of his complete cooperation in the program. The request for $44,000 from the state will approx-play today." Doc Barnes, Stroup-Barnes Furniture Co., "Hundreds of people are visiting our store and making purchase of both damaged and undamaged merchandise. We are grateful to our fellow citizens response to our offerings and want them to know that our policy makes it mandatory that they always get the best at a fair price at our store.
