For nearly a half century he had given his best in order that Orange county might grow, prosper and become the garden spot it is today. His influence has affected almost every person in Orange county. From district attorney to superior judge, attorney and citrus grower, he wielded a strong influence for the betterment of the people. Always a strong believer in improving the lot of the farmer. He gave much of his time and effort in getting better returns for the citrus grower. Judge Williams is gone. But his memory will live on in the hearts of his friends and neighbors of Orange county. Between the Headlines By Fleetwood Lawton ARGENTINA TALKS FORTIFICATIONS AND FINANCE— As negotiations between the United States and the republic of Uruguay are said to be almost completed for the establishment of naval and air bases at Montevideo, Carrasco, and Punta del Este, on Uruguayan soil, the axis press has been jubilantly reporting that Argentina is strenuously opposing such bases. Frankly the Uruguayan government has admitted that Argentina has a legitimate interest in the question since the city of Buenos Aires lies more than a hundred miles up the River Plate, access to which could be theoretically barred with ease by forces operating from the proposed Uruguayan strong points. Nevertheless it is obviously in the interest of Argentina that the mouth of the Plate should be fully protected against any slightest possibility of attack by a non-American power. Certainly the Argentine people have nothing to fear from Uruguay, nor would they oppose any practical sessions are likely to be such that no little opposition will they encounter in Washington. THE FRUITS OF SUBMISSION—Persued by Pierre Laval that an immediate and vast improvement in the lot of the French people would result, Petain accepted the policy of collaboration with the conquerors of France. There appear good reasons for suspicion that Laval himself is more interested in the strong position which he might achieve if, as a result of this policy, he were accepted by the Nazis as a reliable friend than in any other matter. But Petrain's pre-occupation concerning the condition of France, and especially the fate of the two million Frenchmen who are prisoners of war in German camps, made him easily susceptible to Laval's arguments. The final humiliation of committing France to an effort, through aid to Germany, to perpetuate her own subjugation was accepted. Petain met Hitler and heard promises which led him immediately upon his return to Vichy, to broadcast to the French nation that the prisoners of war, or at least a very large number of them, would be almost immediately released. Now, however, high Nazi quarters are expressing the opinion that these French captives will not be set free until Britain is conquered, that, in fact, they will be retained as hostages to avert any possibility of a change in the attitude of the Vichy regime. If this should be true then Church Service Calvary Baptist The ordinance of the Supper will be observed the morning worship at 10:30 Sunday. During the service members will be received by Earl R.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CH The Lesson-Sermon on all Churches of Christ, S cities for its Golden Terverse from Isaiah: "Look u and be ye saved, all th e earth: for I am God, and is none else," and de ancient and modern necra alias mesmerism and hypothe A Scriptural selection Lesson-Sermon includes words of Paul to the Epic Aires lies more than a hundred miles up the River Plate, access to which could be theoretically barred with ease by forces operating from the proposed Uruguayan strong points. Nevertheless it is obviously in the interest of Argentina that the mouth of the Plate should be fully protected against any slightest possibility of attack by a non-American power. Certainly the Argentine people have nothing to fear from Uruguay, nor could they oppose on any practical grounds an agreement whereby the proposed bases would be made available to the United States forces in the event of a definite threat to the security of this continent. Therefore it appears reasonable to imagine that the seeming dis-approval of Buenos Aires has some less easily discernible motive than concern regarding Argentine security. Now on his way to Washington to begin economic discussions, is the president of the Argentine central bank. His mission is to obtain a large cash loan for the Argentine government from the United States, this loan to be used partly for defense purposes, partly in the establishment of a large scale work relief program in Argentina. And here we probably have the clue to the true reason for the seeming hesitancy of the Argentine in embarking wholeheartedly on a policy of naval and military collaboration for Pan-American defense. If the establishment of potentially valuable bases not only in Argentina but in Uruguay as well depends upon Argentine consent, then Buenos Aires is in a position to offer some return in exchange for the economic aid she desires. Otherwise her delegate will be almost empty-handed and able only to appeal to the United States as a basis for the concessions which he seeks and which are today highly important to his nation. And these con- immediately upon his return to Vichy, to broadcast to the French nation that the prisoners of war, or at least a very large number of them, would be almost immediately released. Now, however, high Nazi quarters are expressing the opinion that these French captives will not be set free until Britain is conquered, that, in fact, they will be retained as hostages to avert any possibility of a change in the attitude of the Vichy regime. If this should be true, then Petain has failed of the object which he, as an old soldier, probably held nearest to his heart. Far from any relaxing in the severity of the measures directed against the French, the Nazis have, since the adoption of new Vichy policy, begun to dispossess thousands of French residents of Alsace and Lorraine, driving these unfortunates into unoccupied France in a state of penury and stripped of virtually all their possessions. And as though these acts were not sufficient, the German authorities have closed the University of Paris because, allegedly, French students attempted on Armistice day, to march to the tomb of the Unknown Warrior. Such has been the immediate and visible Nazi reaction to Vichy's agreement to collaborate. Beyond doubt this represents a most serious setback for Laval, since he has staked his political fortunes upon his acceptance by Hitler, upon his being able to establish himself firmly in office by proving to the French people that only by supporting him can they hope for German leniency. If his prestige in France was low before, it must now be non-existent, for the contempt in which he is held by the Nazis has been made clear for all to see. And in the French empire overseas increasingly evident are the expressions of disapproval and even disgust at the course which Pierre Laval has set for Vichy.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH The Lesson-Sermon on Sunday all Churches of Christ, Scientist, tries for its Golden Text this verse from Isaiah: "Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else," and denounces ancient and modern necromancy, massemerism and hypotism. A Scriptural selection in the Lesson-Sermon includes these words of Paul to the Ephesians: "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. . . Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; . . . And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." Passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, state: "The weapons of bigotry, ignorance, envy, fall before an honest heart." "Christians must take up arms against error at home and abroad. They must grapple with sin in themselves and in others, and continue this warfare until they have finished their course." WHITE TEMPLE METHODIST "A Good Man's Blunder" is the sermon subject chosen by Rev. Thomas L. Burden for the morning worship at 10:45 o'clock next Sunday.
