STALIN SEEKS COMPANY—Russia hints she would welcome a three-power conference with the United States and Great Britain, to lay down a common course of action, or at least of policy, in the face of new threats of Japanese expansion in Asia.
It is most unlikely either of the two nations. Stalin is now apparently trying to woo, will seriously consider an agreement with so unreliable an ally, with a government which has raised treachery to the status of national policy. Indeed, Washington's immediate reaction to the proposal was a formal condemnation of the seizure of Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania, by the Soviet. And Britain has hardly forgotten the dismal end of the negotiations which were proceeding with Russia when the conversations were abruptly disrupted by the revelation that Stalin had secretly come to an understanding with Germany. Nevertheless, the very fact the Soviet Union should choose to offer Britain any form of pact while the fate of the British empire remains in doubt would seem to show that Stalin, at least, does not share the opinion that Hitler is invincible.
Democrats Plan Formation Here of Willkie Club
Organization Meeting To Be Held at Elks Clubhouse Tomorrow Evening
Formation of a county-wide Democratic "Wilkie for President" club is expected to be the outcome of a meeting to be held at the Anaheim Elks clubhouse tomorrow evening at 7:30 o'clock. The meeting was called and the movement supported by a group of Democratic party members of Anaheim, among them being Councilman Leo J. Sheridan, H. E. W. Barnes, Oscar H. Heying, Stephen F. Gallagher, William J. M. Heinz, Fire Chief Rudolph Nyboe and others.
Organization of the group is not designed as a bolt from the Democratic party, the sponsors emphasized, because no political candidate other than Wendell L. Willkie is being supported by the club. The group feels that it is maintaining the "true traditions" of the Democratic party in its action.
"Democratic in Spirit"
Sponsors of the club indicate their belief that Willkie representection of New Stands at Park Delayed
Construction work on the additional grandstands at La Palma park...baseball...stadium will not begin until October 20th. It was disclosed yesterday by City Engineer E. P. Hapgood. Hapgood said he was informed by WPA officials in Los Angeles that workmen for this project will not be available until that date. Further, it expected that the complete plans for the job will not be available until about August 20.
The new stands will be completed, however, before the arrival of the Philadelphia Athletics for their second year of training at the park, the city engineer said.
Navy Flier Killed In Highway Crash
Head-on Collision at Coronado Del Mar Saturday Takes Life of Youth
Injuries received in a head crash near the Corona del Mundo.
If Britain were to be quickly defeated by the Nazis now, Russia will be a heavy loser since the Balkan situation, now at Stalin's mercy, will undergo a complete and radical change. But if Japan should succeed in driving the western powers out of Asia and should then ally herself with a victorious Hitler, the situation of the Soviet would be extremely grave and might even be catastrophic. Russia's present policies in Europe run directly contrary to German interests, and Hitler's present apparent indifference due to his other preoccupations does not mean that he will allow the Balkan plans of the axis to be thwarted by the Soviet for one day longer than necessary. Japanese Far Eastern expansion would seem destined inevitably to cause an eventual head-on collision with Russia. Therefore, for the present, it would be greatly to the interest of the Soviet to insure some means of establishing parallel action in the Orient with the two great Anglo-Saxon democracies.
Even if this cannot be achieved, as a result of the well-founded distrust which Britain and America feel now for anything connected with Communism, Stalin's essential policy would still appear to demand he do whatever he may to strengthen the hand of the western powers in Asia. So long as foregin settlements with special rights remain in China, so long as British forces remain in control of such points as Hong Kong, a possible brake on the speed-up of Japanese military imperialism remains, and Stalin still has time to strengthen his already powerful position in China until that nation can be used by him against Japan in much the same way as he is using the Balkans against Germany.

Technically, such negotiations which were proceeding with Russia when the conversations were abruptly disrupted by the revelation that Stalin had secretly come to an understanding with Germany.

Willkie is being supported by the club. The group feels that it is maintaining the "true traditions" of the Democratic party in its action.
"Democratic in Spirit"
Sponsors of the club indicate their belief that Willkie represents a movement within the Republican party that is "Democratic in spirit if not in form," and they declare the third term is "undesirable and odious." Willkie's election would "promote needed national unity" and he would "more effectively deal with the subversive and radical elements," they declared.
The stand of the local group is based not only upon what they termed the dictatorial character of the Democratic national convention, but also upon developments prior to the convention.
Democratic party members from other cities of the county are asked to join with the Anaheim group because it is believed that a country organization would be stronger than a purely local one. No republicans, other than members of the party who might be present in their capacity as newspapermen, will be permitted to attend the meeting tomorrow night, it was said.
Text of Letter
Following is the text of the letter sent to The Gazette by the Anaheim committee:
"Actuated by developments at the recent Democratic convention and prior thereto a considerable group of 'orthodox' and representative Democrats, none of whom have any personal political aspirations, have reluctantly but none the less firmly, decided to form a Democratic 'Willkie for President' club in Orange county.
"Believing that a county-wide organization for this purpose could function more effectively in preserving the true traditions of democratic government then local groups, we have called an organization meeting to be held at the Elks club, Anaheim, on Friday, the 2nd day of August, 1940, at 7:30 p.m., it being distinctly understood that no political candidate other than Mr. Willkie will be sponsored by the group."

Ten other persons were injured during the week end according reports of the California highway patrol. Of them, only Billy DuDu 12, of Costa Mesa is believed to be seriously hurt.

T. B. Wolland, 81, and W. Wolland, 69, both of Gaule Grove, were injured Saturday evening in a crash on Hunting Beach boulevard near Winterpike They were riding with Elmer Smith, 45, of Garden Grove, with C. J. Bruce, 16, of Hunting Beach was the operator of second car involved, it was Donald Stafford, 26, Costa Mesa was treated Monday morning Santa Ana Valley hospital for serious arm injury said to have been the result of an automobile accident.
Others injured were Rosie
COLONIAL HOLLAND — The overseas possessions of the Netherlands present a variety of problems which may call for unprecedented solutions. Technically, such territories as Dutch Guiana, the Dutch West Indies, and the Dutch East Indies were not colonies, for the constitutional basis of the Dutch state is unique. The kingdom of the Netherlands forms, in its international relations and its international political structure, a single entity. Holland is not a state in Europe with dependencies overseas, but one state with territory divided over Europe, Asia, and America. Of this state the central governing authority is the crown with its responsible ministers. The Dutch government at the moment is, with Queen Wilhelmina, in London. As a result of this, any United States or Pan-American action setting up any form of temporary protectorate over Dutch territory in this hemisphere would be utterly different in its legal and political aspects from the establishing of such a "trusteeship" over the American colonies of France. It is not even impossible that the question might be raised whether, in protecting an integral portion of Holland, the nations of America are not implying protection of the whole.
Although this point might seem to be academic at the moment, it might assume some importance in the event of a Japanese move against the Dutch East Indies. The unity of all Dutch territory in one nation was the fullest justification
("Believing that a county-wide organization for this purpose could function more effectively in preserving the true traditions of democratic government then local groups, we have called an organization meeting to be held at the Elks club, Anaheim, on Friday, the 2nd day of August, 1940, at 7:30 p.m., it being distinctly understood that no political candidate other than Mr. Willkie will be sponsored by the group.
Reasons Listed
"The writers are primarily supporting Mr. Willkie for the reasons that: 1) Mr. Willkie is eminently qualified; 2) he was nominated by that segment of the Republican party that is Democratic in spirit if not in form; 3) his election will promote needed national unity; 4) the third term is undesirable and odious; 5) the Chicago convention and events leading up to it were distatorial; 6) Mr. Willkie will more effectively deal with subversive and radical elements.
"Will you be so kind as to announce this meeting in your public so that your readers may have an opportunity to attend if they so desire?"

Anaheim Will Not Obtain Ball Club
Territorial Rights Held by Los Angeles Club Are Insurmountable
Anaheim's hopes for affiliation with a professional baseball league blew up this week. Territorial rights of the Los Angeles baseball club put a definite stop to plans to establish a club in this city.
Definite word that Anaheim was out of the picture was obtained Tuesday by Mayor Charles E. Pearson in a telegram from Benny Rubin of Hollywood. The message said, "Thank you for your courtesy and immediate reply (to Rubin's earler telegram), but the Los Angeles baseball club feels that Anaheim is too close to their park for business reasons."
The movement to establish a club in Anaheim which would be affiliated with the Pacific Coast league-sponsored Class C alignment started last week when Rubin made his first contact through The Gazette office. This contact, made by telephone, was followed up with a telegram to Mayor Pearson in which Rubin asked the privilege of an interview with the mayor to discuss the possibility of coming to Anaheim. Mayor Pearson agreed to such an interview at a time convenient to Rubin, but in the maintime, the attitude of the Los Angeles baseball club came to light and negotiations were dropped.

J Ben Kaulbars Buys Mortuary
Backs, Campbell & Kaulbars New Name of Old-Time Anaheim Firm
Today marks another milestone in the history of one of Anaheim's oldest business establishments, that milestone again being new ownership and a change in the name of the business.
J Ben Kaulbars, for 12 years an employee of Backs, Terry & Campbell funeral chapel, today became its owner and the new name of Backs, Campbell and Kaulbars has been given to the establishment. Kaulbars purchased the business from Mrs. Hayden P. Campbell, widow of the firm's owner from 1922 until his recent death.
Founded in 1871
Ferdinand A. Backs, Sr., founded the establishment in 1871. At that time the morutary was located in the 100 block on North Los Angeles street. For many years Backs conducted the business alone, in conjunction with a furniture store, and served most of the families of Anaheim and the surrounding territory. After many years of active direction of the business, Backs turned over the management of the concern in 1909 to his son, F. A. Backs, Jr. The younger Backs is now an officer of the Savings, Building and Loan Association of Anaheim and active in the management of that establishment.
Firm Name Changed
Some years after F. A. Backs, Jr., took over over the business George W. Terry, since deceased, became affiliated with the company and the name of firm was changed to Backs and Terry. Mrs. Terry was also affiliated with the concern for some years.
In 1922 Hayden P. Campbell then changed to Backs, Terry & joined the firm and the name was then changed to Backs, Terry & Campbell.
Construction of the present residence-type building in which the firm is housed at the corner of Lemon and Cypress streets was pointed to the long period during which they have resided here and their knowledge of the citrus industry and other business problems.
Candee, a resident of Buena Park, is basing his campaign on the need for industries in Orange county and the efforts he said he is prepared to make in securing such industries if elected. Riley who is completing his second term as supervisor, is seeking re-election on the strength of his record in office and the experience he has gained which qualified him for the position.
Congressional candidates were represented by L. H. Loudon of Anaheim, although Byran Bostick, campaign manager for Congressman Harry R. Sheppard in Orange county, spoke briefly in Sheppard's behalf. Loudon charged that the New Deal is trying to convince the people of the nation that the American system is not as good now as it has been in the past. He urged that a Republican congress be elected to aid Wendell Willkie.
Candidates for Senate
Two of the four candidates for state senate were present this morning, Burr A. Brown of Santa Ana and Thomas H. Kuchel of Anaheim. Brown pointed to his long experience in municipal law practice and declared, "I believe America will be kept safe for democracy as long as we continue our two-party form of government."
Kuchel emphasised his record as an assemblyman for the past two terms, calling attention to his affiliation with the so-called economy bloc and his support of same relief measures. He also pointed to his definite stand against all legislation of a subversive nature and promised to vote for the best interests of the state and nation if elected to the higher branch of the state legislature.
Need for Economy
Danforth C. Cowles and Thomas K. Gowen of Fullerton and Peter H. Funk of Anaheim were the candidates for the assembly from the 75th district who were present this morning. Cowles expressed the belief that there is a place for youth in the legislature as youth is today bearing a great brunt of responsibility. He also declared that the need for economic
They were that of providing of necessities of life, that of coping with selfishness, and that of God. "These men made many mistakes, but they opened the way for tomorrow's people," he said.
"God has made tracks in the world of affairs through his great men, prophets and priests, churchmen and countrymen. When Jesus came he declared, 'I am the day. Walk ye herein and I will transform your way of living so that you can transform your world.' In that is the hope for redeemed days and ways ahead."
Arrested at 1:35 o'clock Wednesday morning when police officers were attracted by his erratic driving along North Los Angeles street, George Fischer, 38, of 232 Stockbridge street, Alhambra, was booked for drunk and drunk driving.
He pleaded guilty to both charges before City Judge Frank Fausch yesterday morning, and was ordered to pay a fine of $100 or spend 50 days in jail on the drunk driving charge. He also had his operator's license suspended and was given a 30-day suspended sentence on the drunk charge.
Anaheim Man Fined As Reckless Driver
Willard L. Pohlman of Route 2, Box 388, Anaheim, paid a fine of $25 in Anaheim city court during the past week after pleading guilty to a charge of reckless driving. He was the only major traffic ordinance violator to appear before City Judge Frank Fausch during the past week.
Republicans Pick Area Committee
Anaheim has five representatives on the Republican county central committees for the third supervisorial district, it was disclosed late last week. Two committees were named to carry on the campaign in the district, one serving the north end and the other the south.
Anaheim's representatives are John Kellenberger, Jr., Glen McCloud Dr. E H. Kersten, Mrs. Lotus H. Loudon and Homer Wallace. Wallace is serving on the northern section committee, the others on the southern district.
Other members of the district committees are A. W. McBride, La Habra; Raymond Thompson, Fullerton, and Mrs. Frank Rospaw, Placentia.
Need for Economy
Danforth C. Cowles and Thomas K. Gowen of Fullerton and Peter H. Funk of Anaheim were the candidates for the assembly from the 75th district who were present this morning. Cowles expressed the belief that there is a place for youth in the legislature as youth is today bearing a great brunt of responsibility. He also declared that the need for economy in government is great. Funk declared, "I am a candidate because I would like to see some business methods applied to the state government."
