Arthur, sr. The group includes Charles A. Pearscn, J. H. Heiron, James S. Bouldin Citrus Shipments During Last Year Up 250 Per Cent District Exchange Market 6,406 Cars of Oranges and Lemons in 1938 Northern Orange County Citrus Exchange, directed marketing to 6,406 cars of citrus fruits through fresh fruit channels during the past year, an increase of 250 percent over the total of last season which brought an increase of one per cent in the money return growers. The annual report revealed this week. Shipments through the district exchange last year were 1,887 cars, but addition of several associations to the district exchange together with the much heavier crop of the present season brought about the increase in fruit move to the market during the past year. S. W. McCulloch was re-elected president; L. J. Kelly, vice-president, and A. M. Otis, G. E. Marrs, V. W. Borden, Ernst Borchert, E. Hollingsworth, S. L. Marshell Burn, William Schumacher, S.

Callow as his assistant and the Security First National Bank of the City of Anaheim. 50 Men Coming Some 50 players and officials are to be here during most of the training season, Mulligan said. The first group will total about 10 men and will include rookie pitchers and catchers as well as veterans. The batterymen always report in advance of the other players in order to be ready for batting practice when the infielders and outfielders arrive. Both Mulligan and Lelivelt had nothing but the highest praise for the La Palma stadium. They declared that no baseball park on the Pacific coast has a playing field the superior of the one here. Completion of the dressing rooms and fence is being rushed so that there will be no handicaps to interfere with the activities of the players. Plans Unsettled Plans for the celebration marking the official opening of the stadium have not been completed pending negotiations between the Seattle management and the Sacramento club, which will train at Riverside. Originally scheduled to play their first Anaheim game on Tuesday, March 14, Mulligan and Lelivelt have agreed with local baseball men that the previous Sunday would be a better day for the formal opening. Seattle has a game scheduled with Sacramento at Riverside on that day and hope to have the site of the contest transferred to Anaheim. Lelivelt expressed the belief that Phil Barthelme, president of the Sacramento club, would cooperate in the matter. The daily workouts will start shortly after 10 o'clock in the morning, Mulligan said, and last until the middle of the afternoon. Fans are invited to watch these practice periods, he said.

Assemblyman Thomas H. Kuchel informed members of the Anaheim Merchants association this morning. Assemblyman Kuchel quoted figures showing the deficit left by the Merriam administration and the amount which can be expected as the result of the budget of Governor Culbert Olson. In an effort Ben J. Dresser Called by Death Former Merchant Here Dies February 7 at Portland. Friends Learn Anaheim friends of Ben J. Dresser, former merchant of this city, received word this week of his death on February 7 at Portland, Ore., where he had resided for the past 10 years. Dresser was born in Osage county, Missouri, in 1860 and came to California when he was a young man, locating at Placentia. Relief Discussed Closely related to the increased cost of government, Kuchel said, is the problem of relief. The relief budget for the present biennial was $48,000,000; and it was all spent by the first of this year. That resulted in a request from Governor Olson for slightly less than $20,000,000 to carry the program until July. Efforts were made by some legislators to reduce this amount to less than $12,000,000, to prohibit relief being given to aliens and to limit the overhead and administration expense to 15 per cent. Each of these amendments was defeated, although he cast his vote in favor of them, Assemblyman Kuchel said. Measures Discussed Relationship between capital and labor is a definite state problem, the assemblyman believes. Care must be exerted that any labor legislation adopted is fair to both the employer and employee. Kuch discussed some of the measures which have been introduced in the state legislature. One of them advocates a non-partisan legislature, a measure that the speaker endorses. Another deals with reserve hand which Kuchel National League Franchise Gives to Ben E.

Dresser, former merchant of this city, received word this week of his death on February 7 at Portland, Ore., where he had resided for the past 10 years. Dresser was born in Osage county, Missouri, in 1860 and came to California when he was a young man, locating at Placentia.

Citrus Industry is Discussion Subject A discussion of the future of the citrus industry in California was given at the Anaheim farm center meeting Tuesday evening by Frank Manuel, who recently made a trip through Florida and Texas.

Committee Holds Prorate Hearings Joint Legislative Body Told of Ranchers' Attitudes On Vital Question Hearings were conducted this week in Sacramento by a joint legislative committee on agriculture into the operation of the state's prorate law, with considerable emphasis being laid on its effect upon citrus growers. Most of the many ranchers who appeared before the joint commissioner Accepts Completed River Protection Work Levee Project Approved by Supervisors in spite of Protests Construction of protective works along the Santa Ana river was completed early this week by Basich Brothers, contractors, and officially accepted by the Orange county board of supervisors late Tuesday afternoon. The county, however, is unable to make final payment for the levee repair project at this time. Supervisor Steele Finley of Santa Ana objected to taking the finished product from the contractors on the contention it wasn't completed. He said the last rains had washed away the toe of levées at one or two points, after they had been built. The contract, Finley contended, made Basich Brothers responsible for the levées until they were accepted by the county. Cite "Neglect" Members of the Garden Grove Protection district supported Finley's opinion. They fear the neglected areas in their district would render valueless the rest of the protection work, they said. Nothing has been done in the district except the joining of levées pro- Joint Legislative Body Told of Ranchers' Attitudes On Vital Question Hearings were conducted this week in Sacramento by a joint legislative committee on agriculture into the operation of the state's prorate law, with considerable emphasis being laid on its effect upon citrus growers. Most of the many ranchers who appeared before the joint commission demanded outright repeal of the prorate law. Proponents of the prorate, only a few compared to the opponents, pleaded for a longer trial period for the admitted imperfect limitation program. Several specific charges were filed against the prorate program. They were: Farmers Threatened 1. That growers were rushed into signing petitions for the necessary two-thirds majority of each industry, without proper notice and under threats that they would not be able to sell their crops at all without prorate. 2. That approval in certain industries was obtained by illegally (Continued on Page 3) Tragedy Touches Local Residents Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Tubesing, who died accidentally from carbon monoxide poisoning last week at San Diego, were the brother-in-law and sister of R. A. Miller of 560 S. Dickel street, Anaheim. Members of the Miller family, which includes Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Miller, Miss Beatrice Miller, Miss Gladys Miller, Verner Miller and Murrell Miller, attended the funeral services held Tuesday at San Diego. The families of the two sons also were present. Mrs. Tubesing, 58, apparently died Friday evening, and her husband, 86 years of age, succumbed Sunday afternoon. The tragedy was discovered Saturday morning. According to Anaheim relatives, the couple returned to their home Friday evening after having left a heater burning and the dwelling closed. Apparently the husband lay down on a couch and soon became unconscious. The wife's body was found near the telephone, which she had apparently attempted to answer when a son of the couple telephoned the county. Cite "Neglect" Members of the Garden Grove Protection district supported Finley's opinion. They fear the neglected areas in their district would render valueless the rest of the protection work, they said. Nothing has been done in the district except the joining of levee protection at the Southern Pacific bridge since the protest was made, Lawrence Easton, spokesman for the protection district, said. L. W. Blodget, attorney for Nick Basich, argued that this was an unreasonable interpretation of the contract; that the contractor shouldn't be responsible for what happened to a levee down the river from the point of damage. On a job as long as the Santa Ana river channel, it might mean going over the same ground several times, Blodget pointed out. Supervisor Harry D. Riley moved acceptance of the completed work, on recommendation of Flood Control Engineer M. N. Thompson. Agreement Reached Payment for the job was discussed and agreement reached between the board and Basich whereby the $78,407.73 owing as a progress payment to the contractors up to February 1, would be divided into two demands. One would be for $49,992.34, which the flood district can pay now. The other would be for $28,415.39, which will be paid when the district has the money. In addition to the $78,407.73, the district also owes Basich $7000 for the period from February 1 to February 10, when the work was completed, and approximately $21,000 more, representing 15 percent of the total cost held back as a contingency deduction. The completed levees, with their protecting fences to be filled with brush, are expected to afford protection against any flood up to a flow of 35,000 feet. Any major flood, however, such as that of last March would not be handled by the barriers, which were designed as an emergency job, to hold the river until Prado dam permanently eliminates flood menace, probably next winter. Rotarians Hear Talk on Lincoln Gazette office was honored another of its periodical visions old-time residents of Anaheim who return for a day or so new acquaintances last day when Adolph Heinzman died in for a half-hour chat. Heinzman is now with the Los Angeles county department forest and fire warden, holding the sons of assistant fire warden assistant chief of the fire pro district. He came to Anaheim in 1887 as a small child, his youth here, served five years in the United States navy then moved to Los Angeles in 1925 moving to Los Angeles, Heinzman joined the city fire dept and in 1925 became a member of the county organizamanager of Boston Club Inspects Park Jesse Stengel, manager of the nation National league team, insured the La Palma park base-stadium one day late last and indicated he was well read with the entire layout. The manager of the Bees was there by Bob Quinn, owner of Boston team, who had previously received a letter from John Morgan, chamber of commerce secretary, describing the stadium. Angel is to make his report to him at the Bees' present camp Bradenton, Florida. According to Anaheim relatives, the couple returned to their home Friday evening after having left a heater burning and the dwelling closed. Apparently the husband lay down on a couch and soon became unconscious. The wife's body was found near the telephoner which she had apparently attempted to answer when a son of the couple telephoned the house about 6 o'clock Friday evening. The Miller family was accompanied to San Diego by other relatives, Mr. and Mrs. Jack MacMorne. Services are Held at Anaheim Church Father Henry Gross was celebrant of the solemn requiem mass when parishioners of St. Boniface church paid final respects to Pope Plus XI.

Bouldin issued another warning this week to youngsters riding bicycles on sidewalks and to those riding tandem on wheels. Both practices must stop, Chief Bouldin said, and has instructed his officers to so inform any youngsters they see violating the ordinance. Rotarians Hear Talk on Lincoln Abraham Lincoln's attitudes on present-day problems, with excerpts of speeches he made during his life time being the basis for the speaker's assumptions, were discussed at Monday's meeting of the Anaheim Rotary club by Harry Silk, director of foundations at the University of Southern California. Among the things Lincoln probably would oppose are communism, fascism and Marxism, Silk said. The Great / Emancipator however, would favor the capitalistic system, he believes. Class struggles would not meet the approval of Lincoln. The speaker was introduced by Ronald Brandon, program chairman of the day. In the absence of President Louis Danz, P. J. Weisel conducted the business meeting. Fullerton Drivers Pay Speeding Fines Three residents of Fullerton have paid speeding fines in Anaheim city court during the past week, totalling $25.
