Others who assisted in the arrangements were Marjorie Shoemaker of Tustin; Miss Frances Liles and Ross E. Crane of the farm advisor's office. SPORTOPIX by RUSS McCOMB Johnny Saenger, city fireman The FARMERS CORNER by RALPH H-TAYLOR Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California Of vital interest to California farmers—because all farmers are common property taxpayers—is the question: "What will the 1939 state legislature do with regard to the laws governing bond issues—will it relax or tighten restrictions; will it make it easier to incur publie indebtedness, or harder?" The voters of California, at the recent November election, spoke emphatically and decisively on this subject. The Garrison Bond act which would have reduced the required vote for revenue bond issues from two-third to a bare majority, was defeated by nearly a million majority. Yet already proponents of the repudiated Garrison bill are planning to re-introduce it—on the specious plea that the voters were hoodwinked and did not know the merits of the proposal submitted to them. On the other hand, there is growing realization on the part of sober, sane-thinking citizens aware of the colossal public dee already existing and the fact that there must be a day of reckoning—that California must tighten its check-rein on both spending and borrowing. Reflecting this sentiment, A semblyman Charles W. Lyon Los Angeles has announced that he will seek adoption of the Nevada plan of voting on bond issue. This plan requires that in any bond election a two-thirds vote approval is necessary from both the property owners and the no-property owners, each to counted separately. Under the Nevada plan, two bar lot boxes would be used at every election involving a bond issue. Others who assisted in the arrangements were Marjorie Shoemaker of Tustin; Miss Frances Liles and Ross E. Crane of the farm advisor's office. Johnny Saenger, city fireman who nearly died last summer when the St. Louis Cardinals were stumbling along in the second division, has been pestering the writer for the past two weeks to devote this column to baseball, with emphasis on the coming of the Seattle Raniers to Anaheim for their spring practice. Our resistance has collapsed, and we hope Johnny is satisfied. All good baseball fans in Anaheim are elated that a dream of several years' duration is at last to become a reality. The city is building about as fine a layout as you will find in any small city that does not have a professional baseball club and the city and chamber of commerce combined to bring a good, colorful team to Anaheim to open the new baseball park. It is now up to the townspeople, with no little official cooperation, to do the rest. Seattle wants good attendance at its schedule of exhibition contests during the six weeks that the club will be here. According to reports from Manager Jack Lelivelt, the Raniers are lining up an attractive slate of games, starting with the Chicago White Sox sometime in March. There are enough real baseball fans in and around Anaheim to fill the spacious stands for each game, and those fans should not miss the opportunity to boost the club that will spend a good many hundreds of dollars in this city during its stay. Despite the fact that Seattle sold its leading attraction, Pitcher Freddy Hutchinson, to Detroit, the Raniers will still present a colorful array of baseball talent. The Raniers hustled all the time last year, and there is no reason to assume that Manager Lelivelt won't have them hustling again this year. Baseball fans will also get considerable enjoyment out of watching the routine workouts when games aren't being played, and reasonable attendance at their organization. This group is the purchasing and distributing agent for gasoline, oil and other commodities for the grange, with C. C. Thompson as agent. Several of the officers who were not present at the public installation were seated during the meeting. December Business Has Sharp Advance California and far western business made another sharp advance during December, according to the Business Review for that month compiled by Bank of America's analysis and research department. For the region as a whole, the bank's index rose to its highest level since September, 1937. The gain over November, 1938, was five per cent, and the net increase during the last seven months of 1938 amounted to 17 per cent. Loans for Seed and Feed Now Available Applications for emergency crop and feed loans for 1939 are now being received for Orange county by Elizabeth Rapp at the farm advisor's office, 211 Court House Annex, in Santan Ana, according to George C. Peck, field supervisor for the emergency crop and feed loan section of the farm credit administration. Illinois Picnic to be Held February 2 The postponed picnic reunion of former Illinois residents will be held at Sycamore Grove park, Los Angeles, February 2. A program will be held following the luncheon hour, with President Lin Price of the Illinois-Association of Southern California presiding. Kansas Reunion to be Held on Jan. 28 The annual "Kansas Day" picnic reunion will be held all day Saturday, January 28, at Bixby park Long Beach. Judge William F. Schoch, president of the Long Beach Kansans, will preside at a program which will feature an address by Raymond V. Darby, mayor of Ingelwood. Reflecting this settlement, semblyman Charles W. Lyon Los Angeles has announced that it will seek adoption of the Nevada plan of voting on bond issue. This plan requires that in an bond election a two-thirds vote approval is necessary from both the property owners and the non-property owners, each to count separately. Under the Nevada plan, two box lot boxes would be used at every election involving a bond issue. One box would be placed between lots of property owners and in the other votes of those not owning property. The proposal is to form a constitution amendment and must be submitted to vote of the people if approved by the legislature. The Agricultural Council of California has not, as yet, made an analysis of the Nevada plan, and it is not the purpose of this writing to advocate the plan, nor oppose it. But the council has taken definite action against the Garrison bill or any other scheme to abolish the present two-thirds vote requirement on bond issues. And the California State Farm Bureau federation has taken similar action. Sponsors of the badly-beaten Garrison bill, in seeking to revive it, argue that the power company conducted the campaign against there is little room for argument or that score, as the power companies have filed a statement with the secretary of state's office regarding their campaign expenditures. But the fact remains that scores of state-wide organizations—including the Agricultural Council of California and the State Farm Bureau federation—which have an interest in the power company and owe no allegiance to them, opposed the Garrison bill because they were convinced it would down the bars to unbridled public borrowing and would encourage the launching of impractical visionary projects which would evitably become a burden on common taxpayer. And in their final analysis, business, labor, agriculture and industry all suffer a result of unsound public borrowing. The state legislature, when considers the public debt question needs to divorce it entirely from the question of public ownership versus private ownership. It need to consider the welfare of Californians. its leading attraction, Pitcher Freddy Hutchinson, to Detroit, the Raniers will still present a colorful array of baseball talent. The Raniers hustled all the time last year, and there is no reason to assume that Manager Lelivelt won't have them hustling again this year. Baseball fans will also get considerable enjoyment out of watching the routine workouts when games aren't being played, and reasonable attendance at these sessions will also be appreciated by Seattle. Actually, it is during these practices that fans have the best opportunity of getting acquainted with the various players. The first group of Raniers are scheduled to arrive here about March 22, Lelivelt has announced. Preparation of material for the new telephone directory is now under way, according to R. J. Rossberg, manager of the Southern California Telephone company, who said that delivery of the book is scheduled for early in March.

Whether California needs to tighten the restrictions on public bond issues may be debatable, though undoubtedly most taxpayers would vote for such restrictions. But whether California should relax restrictions on public borrowing is not debatable. The voters have spoken—and the verdict was overwhelmingly "No." And that verdict would have been much the same, irrespective of whether the power companies favored or opposed the proposal. The people of California simply are opposed to making it easier to get into debt—and it is to be hoped before moving to Long more than a year ago. She is survived by her husbands Lawrence C. Evans; one son Clapp of Calimesa; two brothers Arthur P. Weidler of Lamar and Earl G. Weidler of Beach; and three sisters, M.A. Starr and Mrs. Alberta Eerman of Anaheim and Jamin H.
