KUCHEL Editors and Publishers Entered as second-class matter at the Post Office at Anaheim, California, under the Act of March 8, 1879. PARKING IN ANAHEIM There is hardly a city in southern California that is not faced, in greater or less degree, with a parking problem. Every city administration, police department and practically all business men recognize the growing importance of making it easier for the buying public to come and go in a trading area. Parking meters, parking lots together with the limit ordinances are in vogue, most cities having at least some combination or all of these devices. As far back as we can remember Anaheim has had a traffic problem on Friday and Saturday. Even worse was it when horse power began to be mixed with gasoline power. At that time the faster moving gasoline vehicles were held down to the speed of the horse drawn 'hay burners'. The Anaheim chamber of commerce is now concerned with the problem of making it easier for the buyer to trade in our city. Plans for parking lots strategically located within easy access of the shopping district are under way. Keeping employee and employer cars off the main streets must be accomplished fact before the 'lots' will complete their full function. These local cars if put into parking lots and on side streets will take a great load off of the main business district. Then a strict enforcement of the parking ordinance will create a demand for the parking lots. It is The Anaheim chamber of commerce is now concerned with the problem of making it easier for the buyer to trade in our city. Plans for parking lots strategically located within easy access of the shopping district are under way. Keeping employee and employer cars off the main streets must be an accomplished fact before the 'lots' will complete their full function. These local cars if put into parking lots and on side streets will take a great load off of the main business district. Then a strict enforcement of the parking ordinance will create a demand for the parking lots. It is our belief that these lots can be had for a low rental and operated with only police supervision. In common with other cities we have a parking problem. We are going out to solve that problem. As a general once said: 'We will find a way or make one.' RIGHT ROAD TO ACCIDENT PREVENTION The sixty-one stock casualty insurance and surety companies comprising the membership of the Association of Casualty and Surety Executives, have just announced an extensive program for accident control, to be carried out through the National Conservation Bureau. The companies have subscribed funds to be spent in the study and prevention of all classifications of accidents, notably industrial an dautomobile. Research in the control of occupational diseases an dthe development of techniques to control home accidents are also contemplated. The Bureau plans to cooperate with Federal, state and municipal authorities, and with other agencies in the field of accident prevention and control. A number of major projects are to be undertaken. Two "laboratory cities" are to be selected for experimental and test work in traffic accident control. Forty thousand copies of "The Handbook of Industrial Safety Standards," a manual of standard safety practices for periodic inspections of motor vehicles by states and cities is to be developed with the aid of the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators. The Bureau will work jointly with the International Association of Chiefs of Police in publishing a practical handbook on traffic engineering for police. Safe driving instruction for children of licensable age will be promoted, through the distribution of a high school text book, "Man and the Motor Car." This extensive program is a scientific approach to the difficult accident control problem. We have found that momentary enthusiasms produce no lasting good. Safety work that gets results must be carried on quietly and steadily, under expert supervision, year in and year out. The insurance industry's new program deserves the widest public cooperation and support. GET RID OF THIS "DEPRESSION MAKER" WELFARE HEAD TELLS ABOUT MEXICAN RELIEF Newspapers of Orange county carried during the past week story about the amount of money received as direct relief pay by a number of Mexican families. The following statement and planation of the matter is especially for the Weekly Welfare department: tower by Jack Snow, head o Doubtless you have noticed the daily newspapers some moments concerning Mexican through the County Welfare department, and since the may be of interest to you in connection with your Watchtower umn which is read with so much interest throughout the country am submitting the facts in matter to you. First of all, the twenty Mexican families which were ferred to are State Orphan cases and receive their assistance under the State Aid Legislation which, like Old Age Security Blind Aid, is companion legislation with the public assistance program of the Social Secu ction. The children which were ferred to are American born citizens. The State Department of social Welfare has direct supervision over the Orphan Aid program. Our own staff of spared workers investigates studies every case thoroughly in addition the State Depar t in Sacramento passes on and proves each application. And federal auditors check on aid cases as well as Old Age Blind Aid cases. Orphan aid is available on children who are full or half-orphans, or children wage earning parent has totally incapacitated for work active tuberculosis or otherous disease or accident.

The insurance industry's new program deserves the widest public cooperation and support. GET RID OF THIS "DEPRESSION MAKER" Get rid of the capital gains tax—and we'll get rid of one of the principal obstacles to the development of industry and the reemployment of labor. So long as we keep a tax that places punitive financial penalties against capital increases that are made from investment, new endeavors and new business of all kinds, over and above income taxes and all other taxes, capital will largely keep in hiding. And the capital gains tax does all of that. The man who takes a chance and risks his money in some venture that provides jobs and opportunities must absorb the entire loss if it fails—but if it succeeds the government takes as extortionate amount of his profits. That's why some of the country's best economists are calling the capital gains tax "Job Killer Number 1"—and why they are pointing out that it has to be repealed if we are to have the capital investment that will bring good times to the United States. Some New Deal critics are unkind enough to say that the five billion dollar spending program is not designed to prime the pump so much as it is to pump the primary. Before the Jap armies started to invade all of China they might have done well to read more carefully the story of Napoleon's trip to Moscow. Now that the Hapsburgs are completely out of the picture in Austria they might go to Holland and join the Hohenzollerns in a game of bridge.

The individual allowances orphan aid, Orange county person in family groups, $8.75. Approximate indigent aid for single persons, $15.50. I do not believe any county in the state is more careful in its investigations of applications than Orange county, and as nearly as I can determine administrative tests of between seven and eight per cent are in line with normal administrative costs throughout the state even though it has had to include the purchase of additional equipment for the book-keeping and other departments in order to handle the greatly increased state legislation.

According to the department's figures each child gets an average of $15.77 in state orphan aid each month. In the 21 families there are 106 children. A little arithmetic will show that this makes the average payment per family almost exactly $80 per month. The Mexican relief problem is a real one. However, one of the facts that will strike most people is that whereas a family consisting of six semi-orphan children might draw as much as $90 a month from the relief funds, many a Mexican family just as large with a working father gets along on less than that and asks no charity at all.
