KUCHEL Editors and Publishers Entered as second-class matter at the Post Office at Anaheim, California, under the Act of March 8, 1870. REFORM IN OUR ELECTIONS Tuesday's election, local and state, produced some surprising results, as well as a most unprecedented and unexpected vote; on the streets of Anaheim, many were frankly amazed at the number of elective offices and the almost overwhelming number of candidate. It seems that the best thing for the voter to do is to consider the August primary ballot as a "warm-up," and—like a college athlete—keep in training for November. That is because the size of the general election ballot this year will make Tuesday's ballot look like a small scrap of paper. There will be enough proposed constitutional amendments, initiative measures and referendum proposals to ache the head of every sincere voter in the state. Over twenty-five years ago, there was a growing agitation for many election reforms. At that time, the initiative, referendum, and recall were adopted in California; and, at this time, some improvement and change are necessary in those laws. Another reform then urged was the so-called "short ballot"; and while nothing much has been done about it, it seems that this is as good a time as any again to agitate for it. The "short ballot" reform is rather self-explanatory. It means what it says. Ballots should be made shorter, so that people may more intelligently exercise this right of franchise. For example, in the years gone by, the clerk of the Supreme Court of California had to run for election every four erendum, and recall were adopted in California; and, at this time, some improvement and change are necessary in those laws. Another reform then urged was the so-called "short ballot"; and while nothing much has been done about it, it seems that this is as good a time as any again to agitate for it. The "short ballot" reform is rather self-explanatory. It means what it says. Ballots should be made shorter, so that people may more intelligently exercise this right of franchise. For example, in the years gone by, the clerk of the Supreme Court of California, had to run for election every four years. So did the surveyor-general and the superintendent of state printing. These positions are now appointive. Is there any more reason why the secretary of State should have to run for office?—or the attorney-general?—or the state superintendent of public instruction? In the interest of good government, the answer is "no." That answer is especially discernible today only a few days after loud cries of partisanship were heard as reasons for favoring or opposing elective administrative officials of the state. California's government, it is true, is run under a partisan set-up; all our judgeships used to be, too. But there is no place for such cries from any partisan side in state election; there's no reason to it, at all. Some day, our state government will abandon all party labels, and provide that state administrative officials, now elective, shall be appointive. Then, better man will be chosen for state offices; and candidates, "even," for the lieutenant-governorship will be chosen on the basis of merit, instead of by guess or by gosh, or noise.

WASHINGTON — Historically may well look back upon this week as a turning point in U.S. foreign policy. Europe's jittery had communicated themselves Washington so forcefully to President Roosevelt and Secretary Hull issued another warning to Herr Hitler. In a rare speech, short-waved to European Secretary Hull elaborated the thesis of international "order der law," said: "In a smaller world it will soon longer be possible for some nations to choose and follow the way of force and for other nations the same time to choose and low the way of reason. All we have to go in one direction by one way." At Queen's university in Kingston, (Ont.), Canada, where went to receive an honorary gree before dedicating a new international bridge across the Lawrence river, Franklin Rock velt declared: "We can assure ourselves that this hemisphere least shall remain a strong citation wherein civilization can flourish unimpaired. The dominion Canada is part of the sisterhood the British empire. I give to assureance that the people of United States will not stand by if domination of Canadian governors. If Hatfield could Orange county it would be a bishop to the prestige of the Merriam mchine. The Merriam book couldn't afford to let that happen Hence the battle. There are some interesting points in connection with above mentioned gradual deviations from the Merriam range They may be discussed in a later Watchtower.

Some spots on the trail looked hot, some of the investigators looked wise, and some of the affected ones looked worried. One of the persons attacked in the pamphlet made some hay out of it, and others tried to. To the Santa Ana publisher who was vilified it was all grease on the wheel, providing plenty of thunder material. It was also the majority opinion that so far as the campaign effects on the candidates was concerned it meant nothing either way. There was a good deal of surprise when it became known that there were actually two pamphlets. They were printed in the same shop in Los Angeles. The second one never got further. No attempt was made to do anything with it. The second pamphlet reproduced the transcript of the evidence in the Follett case in Los Angeles county 15 years ago. It was a bribery matter and the judge involved was later convicted. The point with an Orange county connection now was that the investigation brought in as an accessory the lawyer recently hired by the board of supervisors to prosecute the fee suit against Orange county officials. Most of the trail so far uncovered was the result of chance. An employee of the distributing company who handled the Fools Rush In thing just happened to remember whose truck delivered the pamphlets. In that way the printers were traced. In quizzing the printers it was discovered that while one of them admitted receiving $600 from the mysterious "Paulson" only part of it showed on the books. To clear himself of And then they found that. The case holds the possibility of some loud explosions, but unless more dope is uncovered in the present investigations the whole affair will soon be forgotten by the general public. WHY SO MUCH FUSS OVER OUR GOVERNOR VOTE? Observers wondered why, during the last few weeks of the campaign, there was such a scramble in Orange county between the Merriam and Hatfield forces. Stopping to think it over, it was apparent that the vote here was not very important to either. A candidate who got all the republican votes would not have much of a start on a state election. Yet an unusual number of meetings were held and much valuable time and some money spent, with the governor himself putting in an occasional appearance. The answer is that Orange is a sort of a key county. The objective in such a campaign drive is not so much a matter of votes as of prestige. Apart from holders of local jobs there are some important Merriam appointees from Orange county, with statewide reputations. It has always been considered that Orange county belonged to Merriam and that all the republican newspapers were automatically lined up for him. Four years ago it did look that way. Since then there have been gradual defections, and all of a sudden a couple of months ago the Hatfield folks discovered the situation, put on a drive and appeared to make great headway. This aroused the Merriam folks, who came back with a still stronger drive, capping it off with the announcement of a $200,000 state appropriation for flood control in Orange county. credited to the This column is written too early in the week to comment on any of the election results. Your home paper editor will attend that. Fellow named Tom Danson out some handbills in Santa Ana asking folks to write in his name as a candidate for county assessor. It is said that he claimed a grade of well-known men got together advised him to make the race, agreed to pay all the costs. He used to be a radio announcer. Number of people who listen to local radio station in Santa Ana seems to be much exaggerated. During a hot campaign they seem to be some, especially when they think some dirt is to be spilled. But when admitting to they listen many of them apparently remark that they happened to tune in on that station. A county official (one where appointed, not elected) thought to have a little fun Monday. Proposed to get up a pool on election results, having each participant mark a ballot with a number of votes he thought each candidate would get, best guess to take the pot. Clerk B. J. Smith got out his little old code book and read Section 60 of the pep code, dealing with election wager. That ended the pool idea right there. Betting on an election any way is definitely a miserable mean under California law. We are supposed to save your money for the horse races. Good deal of laughing went over the manner of one candidate's chief booster, who volunteered to go around with the candidate and also to talk for me over the radio. The candidate didn't get much of a break as booster spent nearly all his talking about himself and Senator Olson. THE BUNGLING HUNTER EXPLAINS RUINED YOUR COW? NONSENSE!

S. cotton was 11,656,000 bales, an almost three-fold increase over a year ago. Since U. S. cotton consumption exports last year totaled 11,432,000 bales, only 556,000 more than the estimated 1938-39 crop, prospects for sizable reduction of this tremendous carry-over are dim indeed. When cotton prices tumbled last week, making loans mandatory under the Agricultural Adjustment act of 1938, Secretary of Agriculture Wallace pointed to cotton as "perhaps the most difficult single situation with which assiduous as National Chairman Jim Farley, last week wrote the latter saying: ". . . Get busy on some sort of a plan to get the Roosevelt philosophy to the traveling men and salesmen of the country." Most of Louisville Varnish's salesmen, said Colonel Callahan, had become infected by the anti-Roosevelt feeling they encounter everywhere among their customers. "This . . . reactionary line of thinking is thrown into our salesmen five or six times every day and it is having its effect. Salesmen, as you know, do a great deal of talking themselves and if properly handled they can be of a great deal of help to the party." INSCRIPTION— SALT LAKE CITY — On a mountain ridge in Summit county, Utah, newshawks last week discovered a granite tombstone erected several years ago by federal emergency relief administration workers. Inscription: "In memory of Franklin D. Roosevelt, 1932-36." Explained a local county commissioner: "What the stonecutters really meant was 'In Appreciation of Franklin D. Roosevelt.'" JOHN SCOTT— NEW YORK—Negro John Scott arraigned in a Manhattan court last week on a charge of first-degree murder, look up in surprise and said: "Judge, I didn't even know that man I stabbed died." Said Judge William Allen: "This man was shot." Said John Scott: "No, judge, I stabbed him." Judge James checked up. The man wanted for the shooting was another Harlem Negro, also in Tombs prison, also named John Scott. Anaheim, Calif., Sept. 1, 1988 CREATEDLY—and this time, apparently, by persons who are prepared to back up their accusation with factual evidence—that Bridges is an active member of the communist party under the name of "Dorgan" and that soviet influence has been in the background continuously during the strikes which have been directed by Bridges on the pacific coast. And the further charge has been made before the house committee, now meeting in Washington, that one Irving N. Markheim, a Los Angeles communist who assertedly had knowledge of Bridges' communist connections, was offered $500 and expenses by a Los Angeles attorney to go to Ensenada, Mexico, and stay there until Bridges was no longer under fire. California farmers — and the people of California generally—will welcome a show-down on these charges. That communists and other radicals have used the CIO in many instances for their own purposes, seeking to fan the flames of discontent and to incite acts of lawlessness which fall into the pattern of revolutionary tactics, has become clearly evident during the hearings in Washington. If Harry Bridges has been the spearhead of that attack on American government, and if Bridges, the alien, is also a communist, his deportation should be carried out without delay and without pussyfooting on the part of the United States labor department; If Bridges is not a communist, in the employ of the labor department, the immigration department, or any other department. California farmers, who have seen their crops rot on the docks, or in the fields, while Bridges arrogantly tied up Pacific coast shipping and boasted he would soon "march inland," cannot be placed in the category of "red-baiters." They are simply industrious Americans who believe in law and order and in their right to harvest their crops and ship them to market. And they sometimes find it difficult to understand why certain government officials should show more solicitude toward an alien labor czar, preaching class hatred and "the class struggle," than they show to productive, hard-working citizens, who pay their taxes, keep the peace and support their families. Bridges, when he was faced with the accusation lodged against him in Washington, is quoted as denying that he is a communist. But he added: "Sure, I sympathize with plenty that the community party advocates." That answer, coupled with Bridges' record, is hardly reassuring. If Bridges is here just to stir up trouble, it might be well to send him back to the country of his nativity. California—a agriculture, business and labor alike—would be better off without him!

LOANS FOR SMALL BUSINESS Small businesses may be generally divided into two classes—retailers and manufacturers. Bank of America has a special loan plan designed to meet the needs of both. The most common need of the small manufacturer is for working capital and capital for plant improvements. The retailer's problem is primarily one of ready cash to carry more receivables and a sufficient inventory.

The retailer's principal problem may be solved by use of the small capital loan plan or a combination of this plan and FHA financing which, under Title I, permits modernization of property, the installation of new store fronts, fixtures, and similar improvements. Small capital loans for either retailers or manufacturers are available only one year. For loans over $1000 a concern must have been established for a longer period. Loans may be made with or without security or endorsement, depending upon the amount and maturity of the loan. Loans of this type, however, cannot be made for the classes—retailers and manufacturers.
