MASS-PRODUCTION PEACE—Now that Henry Ford and his chief executives have an opportunity to inspect one of the U.S. army air corps' latest model pursuit ships they are, it seems, still of the opinion that their factories can produce such fighting aircraft in large volume within the next few months. Reports tell us that the figure at which the Ford organization would aim would be 1,000 planes daily rolling off the assembly lines. Incredible though this figure is, Henry Ford has never failed in the past to make good on statements which seemed almost equally fantastic.
If Ford can turn out a thousand, or even five hundred, efficient modern warplanes a day, then, according to Knudsen, General Motors can do the same. This news, when confirmed, will be the most important item to appear in a newspaper for many years. It will mean that within a few months the peace of this American continent will be virtually assured. It will mean a fatal blow for the forces of aggression over all the world. German plane production figures are, naturally, a military secret, but probably the Nazi factories are turning out not more than 3,000 planes monthly.

Red Cross Board Plans Means to Raise War Quota
Two Projects in Process of Development Following Meeting Tuesday
Two plans for raising Anaheim's quota of $2000 for the Red Cross war relief fund are in the formal stage today following a meeting of the Anaheim chapter's executive board Tuesday evening. A total of $747.22 has been raised in this city, it was reported.
The first plan calls for a city-wide drive for newspapers and magazines, with two local groups expected to be named shortly to handle details of the drive. The Red Cross organization has a good, guaranteed rate for newspapers and magazines, according to information given to the board Tuesday night.
Social Functions
The second plan embodies a series of community functions, gross receipts of which will be turned over to the Red Cross. Groups of individuals and various organizations will be asked to sponsor such functions, for which admission will be charged. Chairman William-G. Claussen of the Anaheim chapter expects to appoint a committee to develop these plans within a few days.
Jack Reed Named President of 20-30 Club
Jack Reed will head the Anaheim 20-30 club for the next six months as the result of the semi-annual election held last night. Reed succeeds Paul Elsner, who reported that the club's membership has increased from eight to 24 in the past few months.
Other new officers chosen include Fred Klein, vice president; Walter Kerns, Doye Ford, G. Brubaker and Glen Kirk, board members. The new officers will be installed next Monday during a meeting to be held at the August Eltiste ranch.
Closing Drill for Cadets Scheduled
Rev. Father Whelan Speaker / For Final Program at St. Catherine's

THE BACK-STABBER — Graphic description of Mussolini's entry into the war was that of President Roosevelt. But it was more than a condemnation of Il Duce's choice of the moment to strike, or of his lack of reasonable motive for going to war. It was a clearly-drawn picture of Mussolini's tactics and strategy, political as well as military. No sooner had he declared war, then the Italian leader stated that Italy would not attack her still peaceful, if badly frightened, neighbors. He news, when confirmed, will be the most important item to appear in a newspaper for many years. It will mean that within a few months the peace of this American continent will be virtually assured. It will mean a fatal blow for the forces of aggression over all the world. German plane production figures are, naturally, a military secret, but probably the Nazi factories are turning out not more than 3,000 planes monthly.
If the Allies are still in the fight when the aerial products of American genius start reaching them at the rate of hundreds a day, then the only course open for Germany and Italy will be to make peace just as quickly as they can on such terms as they may be able to obtain.
Now that the sympathy of the United States has been clearly and definitely pledged to the Allies; now that spokesmen of all American major political parties have expressed their agreement with this policy, the Nazi-Fascist conspiracy is doomed to fail and fail miserably, crushed beneath the veritable avalanche of planes and other weapons which can be manufactured by American industry.
Under certain conditions, deliveries of planes from the Ford factories should begin in about six months. So Hitler and Mussolini face a definite deadline. Proudly they have stated that they have accumulated stores which will keep their war machines in action for years, if necessary. But now the Ford plan makes stocks of supplies in the dictators' hands relatively unimportant. They have based their aggressions on air power, now they will soon be hoisted on their own petard. Let us hope that soon the means of bringing peace may begin to roll from the mass-production lines. A peace that will mean the victory of industry over militarism.
STATESMANSHIP IS NEED OF AMERICA
Statesmen who think first, last and always of America, rather than politicians who are "selling America down the river to obtain votes," are needed in this nation, Fred Chembleren, superintendent of schools at Huntington Beach, told members of the Anaheim Rotary club Tuesday noon.
Supreme sovereignty of the individual, and that government must be subservient to the individual, are the foundations upon which Americanism is built, the speaker declared, in urging that his listeners rededicate themselves

Mussolini could dominate Egypt, then his dreams of a big Italian empire in Africa would be well on their way to being realized. He would then control the Suez canal; the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan would provide direct land connection from Cairo to the ends of Ethiopia. Africa would be Italy's from French Tunisia to Kenya colony, and the Duce's word would soon be law through-

Two hundred nineteen young men and women received diplomas during the fortyeth annual commencement exercises of Anaheim union high school last Thursday afternoon in the Greek theater at the Anaheim city park, and heard Dr. Carl Sumner Knopf advice them of what they can expect life and how best to meet those problems.
Dr. Knopf, professor at the University of Southern California used as his subject "Life is Lil' That," and offered fcur many points for his audience to consider. The points were:
1. Regardless of how honest and successful one's best effort are, they are sometimes misunderstood. One is not necessarily rewarded for the things one does.
2. "Prophets are not without honor save in his own country." Don't mind being overlooked occasionally in favor of someone from a different "city, county or state," Dr. Knopf urged.
3. Beware of "fads" or propaganda. Problems of the world are not solved by them, but b

Anaheim to Send Group to Artesia Dairy Celebration
Party Will Leave City Hall Tomorrow Morning at 10 o'Clock
A party of approximately 40 Anaheim business men and women will leave the city hall tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock to go to Artesia for the opening day's events of the Golden Jubilee Dairy Festival to be held in that city Friday and Saturday. A special bus has been chartered for the delegation, but private cars will furnish transportation if the number in the party exceeds the capacity of the bus, according to John A. Morgan, secretary of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce.
The Anaheim delegation will be welcomed by a committee of Artesia people, and will then proceed to the arena where the dairy maids' milking contest will be conducted. Ray E. Smith of Anaheim, dairy inspector in Orange county, will be the judge of the event.
Special Contest
A special event which Smith is arranging will be a milking contest between Louis H. Hoskins, president of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, and O. E. Hanson, president of the Anaheim Merchants association.
District Manager of Concern
Speaks to Members of Merchant Group
An outline of the activities of the Globe Wireless, Ltd., which maintains a radio station at Cypress, was given to members of the Anaheim Merchants association this morning by Roger W. Bunce, district manager for the company. The speaker is a former resident of Anaheim.
The initial investment for the Cypress station when it was built in 1930 was $50,000. Bunce said. Since then numerous changes and improvements have been made which have increased the investment. The station serves as a connecting link between the Los Angeles and Hollywood offices and the numerous other stations of the system.
World-Wide Service
Globe Wireless sends radiograms to every foreign country except Canada and Mexico, the speaker said. Services include the full rate message, code rate message, deferred rate message, and radioletter. Messages may also be sent to ships at sea as well as to land stations.
Use of radio during wartime was outlined briefly by the speaker, who declared that there is no lack of radio preparedness in the country. There are about 50,000 radio amateur and many units of the naval radio reserve available for immediate action in the time of need, he said.
War Uses Told
Maritime use of radio is highly organized and the procedure is exacting, but changed often. Bunce declared. Operation of land radio is more varied because of the feasibility of using short-range equipment and the ability to change the frequency often.
O. E. Hanson, newly-installed president, presided over his first meeting today.
