Anaheim, Calif., June 15, 1939 By WARREN BAYLEY HIGHWAY 40—SALT LAKE CITY TO DENVER, COLO.—To travel from Salt Lake City to Denver by car you have a choice of three routes. One (the shortest) is over highway 30 through southern Wyoming. Another (the longest) is over highway 50 and takes you through southeastern Utah and on through the mountains by way of Grand Junction and Salida, bringing you out at Pueblo by way of the Royal Gorge. Or, if you prefer, you can leave 50 at Grand Junction and go by way of Leadville and Colorado Springs. The third is over highway 40 and inasmuch as it takes you over three of the most beautiful passes in the Colorado mountains, I believe it is LEGAL NOTICE NO. A-7169 NOTICE TO CREDITORS ESTATE OF BERTHA GETCHELL, DECEASED. Notice is hereby given, by the undersigned, Annie Strauss, Administratrix with the will annexed of the estate of Bertha Getchell, deceased, to the creditors of all persons having claims against the said deceased to file them with the necessary vouchers in the office of the Clerk of the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California, or to exhibit the name with the necessary vouchers of sufficient interest to warrant a few notes. Another thing that might have prompted my decision is that this route goes through Steamboat Springs and I have oftened wondered how it came by such an unusual name. The ride from Salt Lake City to Steamboat Springs is through the usual mountain country and outside of Dinosaur national monument there is no outstanding scenery or points of interest. From Steamboat Springs to Denver it is one "oh" and "ah" after another, for these are the Colorado Rockies and they are almost matchless in their beauty. Beginning almost at the city limits of Steamboat Springs you start to climb. Twenty-four miles to the east you pass over the first continental divide. At the summit the Colorado Historical society has erected a monument which informs you that this is "RABBIT EARS PASS—ELEVATION 9,680 FEET. NAMED AFTER RABBIT EARS PEAK, WHICH WAS SO CALLED BY THE EARLIEST TRAPPERS BECAUSE OF ITS APPEARANCE. CONTINENTAL DIVIDE BETWEEN NORTH PARK AND YAMPA RIVERS." From the pass the descent is short and gradual and soon you begin to-climb again. As it keeps on "timber line" gets very close and snow becomes abundant even though it is the latter part of May. Sales of Boulder Dam Power Gain Boulder Dam power sales the first quarter of this year have been almost double those of the same period in 1938. Cash collections through March were almost $900,000 as compared with $480,000 for the 1938 quarter-year, the commissioner of reclamation reports to Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes. Added equipment and ample water supply in Boulder's 100-mile reservoir, Lake Mead, have enabled the dam's two power plants, one on the Nevada side of Black canyon and one on the Arizona side at the base of the dam to generate more than 450,000,000 kilowatt-hours the first quarter of this year. Biggest customer for this electricity, by product of Boulder dam (built primarily for flood control and irrigation), is the city of Los Angeles. It uses about one-fourth of the electricity generated at Boulder. The Boulder plant is now operating at still less than half its ultimate capacity. When all generating units an dother equipment are installed, Boulder's power capacity will be 1,835,000 horsepower, two and a half times as large as the Dnieprostroyl plant in Russia, at present the largest hydroelectric power-producing plant in the world. With six of the great 115,000 horsepower units and one of the small 55,000 units in operation, the United States treasury has already received about $5,000,000 from the sale of power at Boulder. on the east side goes into the Guam of Mexico by way of the Missisippi ESTATE OF BERTHA GETCHELL, DECEASED.

CONTINENTAL DIVIDE BETWEEN NORTH PARK AND YAMPA RIVERS." From the pass the descent is short and gradual and soon you begin to-climb again. As it keeps on "timber line" gets very close and snow becomes abundant even though it is the latter part of May. The altitude nears the two-mile mark and breathing is quite a problem if you try to get out and move around. At the summit another marker informs you that this is, "BERTHOUD PASS ACROSS CONTINENTAL DIVIDE BETWEEN SOUTH PLATTE AND COLORADO RIVER DRAINAGES ALTITUDE 11.314 FEET. DISCOVERED BY CAPT. E. L. BERTHOUD, COLORADO PIONEER, MAY 2nd, 1861. SURVEYED BY BERTHOUD AND JIM BRIDGER, JULY, 1861. TOLL ROAD OPENED 1874—IMPROVED HIGHWAY OPENED, 1923," Water falling on the west side of this marker finds its way into the Colorado river and the Gulf of California. Water falling on the east side goes into the Guam of Mexico by way of the Mississippi. Denver is now less than 10 miles distant. The road down goes through many little mountain towns whose chief business is taking care of the tourists and sportsmen that come by the thousands. It really is a vacationist's "para-dise." Incidentally, Steamboat Spring was so named because of a sprint that tooted like a steamboat. However, the building of the railroad took the toot out and only the story remains.

It condemned that action as "basically unsound, dangerous and unjustified from any standpoint" and demanded that this course of action be immediately abandoned. A third resolution demanded that no relief administration or organization be permitted to have any voice in wage matters. Migrant Problem The final resolution pertained to activities of state and federal agencies on matters of migrant housing, recreation, schooling, relief, wages and working conditions. It opposed a program which has been advocated by those agencies. Strathman, in his remarks, explained the Madera meeting and said the situation was organized by the Workers Alliance and another CIO union. It was not a fair hearing, he said, and the entire situation is serious. Predicts Tax Strike Raymer touched upon the alien indigent problem. He said that more than $100,000 is being sent to Mexico by alien indigents in California. He predicted a tax strike in Orange county if the situation is not changed. Aliens are kept in the state to help foment trouble, was the charge brought by Wood. Laws and practices are being made by non-producers, he said, and it is their intent to destroy the present democratic government. He concluded his remarks by saying 68 per cent of the nation's businesses made no net profit last year. Other short talks were given by R. W. Hull, E. P. Backs, S. L. Virene, San Bernardino, and Earl Tremendous increases in cost of SRA relief in Orange county were revealed in a report made by the California Taxpayers association to the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce and the county committee named to direct a program launched by the Santa Ana chamber to reduce costs, government and relief.

Costs were shown being proportionately higher. In 1938, the case load dropped from the peak of 1914 January to 1775 in February of the same year. An analysis of the fight shows that instead of decrease from January to February, as did the case last year, this year case load increased. In the year 1939, the case load in January was 2303, increasing to 2439 in February. The case load in February 1938 was 1775, nearly 700 lower than in February of the same year, when the total case load gregated 2439.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH These words of Paul to the Corinthians, "To us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him," are the Golden Text in the Lesson-Sermon on Sunday in all Churches of Christ, Scientist. The question, "Is the Universe, including Man, Evolved by Atomic Force?" is the subject. A Bible selection in the Lesson-Sermon presents these verses about Jesus from the Gospel according to Mark: "And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils. And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed." One of the passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, includes the statements: "When man is governed by God, the ever-present Mind who understands all things, man knows that with God all things are possible. The only way to this living Truth, which heals the sick, is found in the Science of divine Mind as taught and demonstrated by Christ Jesus."
