The action finally carried by a 7 to 4 vote.

FARLEY-ROOSEVELT SPLIT REPORTS HEARD WASHINGTON—Political observers here are inclined to place little credence in the reports that President Roosevelt and James A. Farley, postmaster general, will sever political relationships over the president's desire to seek a third term.

ANAHEIM GAZET To Increase In Tax Rates For Schools is Predicted Tax rate for the Anaheim union high school district for school year 1939-1940 will remain approximately 75 cents, same figure as last year. A slight reduction in the tax rate for the Anaheim elementary school district is expected during the new school year. These predictions were made weekly by Superintendent J. A. Jones of the high school and interimendent M. A. Gauer of the elementary schools on the basis of proposed budgets which have submitted to County Superintendent of Schools Ray Adkin. The rate will not be set until number 1. Lower Budget The tax rates for the elementary district last year were 76 for general purposes and 23 for bonds. This year the budget amounts to about 1,000, considerably lower than year's budget of $174,000, reported. The principal in the reduction of the net is the slight allocation for annual outlay, which last year quite high because of the rising program. Slightly smaller amount of taxes from the state is expected year because of the reduced daily attendance during City Acts to Aid Property Owners Fund is Sought from County to Relieve Street-Assessments Anaheim city council will ask a grant of $3700 from the board of supervisors for relief of acquisition districts here. A resolution requesting the grant was passed by the council Tuesday evening.

The supervisors have denied the requests during the past two years. Prior to that time the grant was made each year and was of considerable assistance to property owners in the areas who had contracted for the expense of widening. Farm Bureau of County Explains Citrus Dump Use Cullage and Frost-Damaged Fruit Only Destroyed; Practice Defended A detailed explanation of the use of citrus dumps was given by C. J. Marks, executive secretary of the Orange County Farm Bureau in a statement issued last Saturday. The statement was issued by Marks as a means of counteracting adverse criticism from uniformed sources, farm bureau, officials said. The citrus grower and his shipping agency is not "criminal," as some people charge, because fruit is dumped "when so many thousands are in need." "The fact is," states Marks, "that this fruit is made up of cullage and frost-damaged oranges which standardization laws will not permit marketing, and other unmerchantable oranges for which the grower would have to dig into his pocket to pay the cost of putting on the market. Also, if put on the market it would only serve to demoralize the entire selling structure of the orange industry." Regular Practice "Experience has shown that the success may inaugural" Park Dedication Invitations Congressman Harry Shearer Requested to Attend Event August 5 Invitations were sent out yesterday by the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce to special guests will be on the platform during dedicatory ceremonies at La Palma park on Saturday August 5. A previous invitation extended to Ralph D. Carchitect of the park, has been accepted. Many of the invitations sent local residents. They include Mayor Charles H. Mann; Councilmen F. A. Yungbluth, L Sheridan, Charles A. Pearson. This year the budget amounts to about 100,000, considerably lower than year's budget of $174,000, reportedly reported. The principal in the reduction of the net is the slight allocation for local outlay, which last year quite high because of the rising program. Public hearing on the proposed budget for the elementary school district will be held in Gauer's on August 1 at 8 o'clock in evening. Higher Income The high school district will receive slightly smaller amount of taxes during the next year, proposed budget discloses. The expected expenditure will also be a little higher. District taxes required for school year are estimated at 260,000 and expenditures are estimated at 260,000. Increased daily attendance last year boosted the amount to be re-drawn from the state. Clay said public hearing on the high district's proposed budget was held August 3 at 8 o'clock in evening in Clayes' office. Pro-Rate Upheld by State Officer The importance of the pro-rate to all agricultural industries was stressed by Frank M. Kramer, supervising inspector of the state department of agriculture in a talk before the Anaheim Kiwanis club Tuesday noon at the Elks clubhouse. Kramer is connected with the bureau of fruit and vegetable standardization. Pro-rate program has succeeded in other agricultural industries and there is no reason why it should not in the citrus industry, the speaker declared. He compared the pro-rate to the freeze of 1937, showing that more money was received for less fruit that year than during the year previous: Kramer, in discussing the work of his department, said that it merely enforces the laws created by the legislature on the part of the people. He highly lauded W. B. Parker, new director of agriculture, and a strong advocate of standardization. The speaker was introduced by Dr. Charles Irvin, program chairman of the day. "The fact is," states Marks, "that this fruit is made up of cullage and frost-damaged oranges which standardization laws will not permit marketing, and other unmerchantable oranges for which the grower would have to dig into his pocket to pay the cost of putting on the market. Also, if put on the market it would only serve to demoralize the entire selling structure of the orange industry." Regular Practice "Experience has shown that the very small percentage of the fruit that is included in the dump and is not irraparably damaged by frost or by other types of damage making it inedible, is of such low grade that it could not bear the cost of placing in boxes and delivering to the markets. It has been a regular practice of agriculture and industry for many years to eliminate the unmerchantable product from the market. In instances where this practice has been ignored, damage to the industry as a whole has resulted. "Every year in Southern California, as in other parts of the nation, crops have had to be plowed under or left in the field or on the trees unharvested because the costs of harvesting could not be secured for the product. Operation of the law of supply and demand has caused the market to become saturated—to such an extent that shoving such poor fruit into the market also would result in practically no added sales and bring no advantage to the consumers but great loss to growers and others," the statement continued. Community Dump "The particular fruit dump located east of Anaheim is available to all shippers in the area. It is a community dump. It is properly policed by health authorities. Due to being along a levee of the river, the pile of oranges has offered opportunities to photographers to produce a bizarre effect by taking pictures from an angle that gives the impression that great mountains of oranges are piled there," states Marks, "and these pictures and uninformed statements have been utilized by people who wish to capitalize upon the situation in order to promote some program of their own. It has been said that unfed thousands are being deprived of food by the practice," he further said, "when the truth is that all regularly qualified charity agencies are already receiving sufficient fruit to supply their requirements."

Westover on a charge of passing a bad check. Libertsev was granted probation on condition he make restitution on the checks he issued at a rate of $7.50 a week and that he accept employment offered by C. H. Meyer, Anaheim used car dealer. Judge Westover also urged him to become an American citizen. Permit Issued for New Dwelling Here A building permit was issued Monday by Building Inspector R. Nyboe to L. Redmond for construction of a six room dwelling and garage at 414 S. Ohio street. Fred Williams is contractor for the residence, which will cost $4500. Oil wells shut down production when the supply is more than sufficient, factories quit producing; but the farmer has a factory that cannot be shut off at will any time in the season, and surplus becomes a great problem. Dumping unmerchantable oranges along the river bed has proven, especially under such circumstances, a much better method than dumping them into public markets," stated Marks in conclusion. Pictures Interest Anaheim Rotarians Anaheim Rotarians viewed motion pictures of Hopi Indian life in southwestern Utah and of scientific operations of the Ford plant at Rouge River during their regular meeting Monday noon at the Elks clubhouse. The films were displayed by Dr. Ralph Murane of Santa Ana. Desk calenders carrying the Rotary insignia and with each meeting date similarly stamped were given to each Rotarian by President P. J.
