Trialogue Program Presented at Kiwanis Club by University Religious Conference Need for religious faiths to submerge their individual differences and unite on the broad principles upon which all were founded to combat rising perils which threaten all religion is the theme emphasized by a trialogue of students—a Catholic, a protestant and a Jew—when they spoke on the topic, "A Challenge to Intolerance" at the luncheon meeting of the Anaheim Kiwanis club Tuesday. In the form of a trialogue, the three students, members of the university religious conference, re- late how their organization is meeting the challenge of the American way. The speakers were Stuart Ratliff of UCLA, representing the Catholic faith; Gilbert Harrison of UCLA, representing the Jewish faith, and John Krumm of the Episcopalian faith.

Legislators Back Flood Law Change Speedy adoption of the proposed amendments to the county's flood control district act was predicted this week by Chairman Willard Smith of the county board of supervisors.

The amendments give the district board broader powers in handling flood control projects and also would permit deeding of property acquired for the Prado dam basin to the federal government in return for reimbursement to the county for its costs in purchasing the lands. The amendments also provide that the county may acquire maintenance works and assets of districts wishing to disincorporate.

One out of every 84 sons in the United States last was the victim of some type of serious crime and the national of crime last year was 15 bil- dollars. Justice White said, crime cost was more than 400 percent greater than the cost of nation throughout the nation. Discussing laws, the jurist deed that all are based upon the Commandments, and especial- upon the last seven which deal man's relations to man. Re- for these laws and for law officers is essential in the cam- to curb crime, he said. "Graves Hallowed" Justice White praised the for- oment of organizations such as the officers associations because enables the various law en- ment agents to better under- led their problems and provides opportunity for better under- lading between peace officers in the public in general.

An outline of the subjects taught by Mrs. White was the basis of her remarks this morning. Good selling is a matter of get- ting the attention of the customer, followed by creation of interest in the article being purchased and then a definite desire on the part of the customer for that article. The salesperson must then convince the customer that he or she needs the merchandise and then close the sale. Quality Important Quality of merchandise is more important than price, Mrs. White declared. While many persons are price-conscious, they also are desirous of obtaining the best quality for the money they expend. Salespeople must be able to understand the customer's point of view, the speaker said. Today, the customer knows what she wants and "is the salesperson's boss." Most merchandise today is virtually the same, which means that the service is the biggest competition of today, Mrs. White said. In order to provide service, salespeople must be enthusiastic and interested. Mrs. White was introduced by L. C. Herron. President Everett M.

Santa Ana Business Man Outlines History of Anti-Semitism at Rotary Club Meeting "The Historical Background of Anti-Semitism" was the subject of a talk given by Sam Hurwitz, Santa Ana business man, at Monday noon's meeting of the Anaheim Rotary club. The speaker was introduced by Charles Fay, program chairman. Persecution of the Jew is not new; Hurwitz said. Other dictatorial governments in the past have carried on similar campaigns, but the Jews have survived the downfall of many dynasties and will continue to survive, the speaker declared. Jews and Christians are bound together by the same recognition of, and respect for, a common creator, and both are believers in the fatherhood of God, and the brotherhood of man," Hurwitz said. Ten members of the club were nominated for the board of directors, with the election to be held at a later date. Those nominated were J. L. Bovee, Jr., C. R. Brandon, E. R. Deering, L. C. Hartranft, M. S. Reeves, Claude Russell, Dr. H. A. Tews and P. J. Weisel.
