Harbor Improvement Will Be Discussed Next Week Expansion of Present Facilities at Newport to be Considered Wednesday At Public Hearing In City Hall A public hearing will be held at Newport Harbor city hall next Wednesday morning, 11:30, to consider the advisability of an expansion program for the harbor at the present time. This movement has been under consideration for some time with recognition being made by the war department recently. Col. Edwin C. Kelton, U. S. District Engineer, will preside over the meeting. On June 27, 1941, the Committee on Commerce, U. S. Senate, adopted a resolution calling for a review of reports covering Newport Harbor. The principal subject of the hearing will be the proposed improvements included in the report submitted recently by County Engineer Art Beard and City Engineer R. L. Patterson. The suggested improvements include the dredging of the county turning basin, near the overhead bridge, to a depth of 25 feet, which would facilitate large yachts and vessels tying up at the county dock. The county basin has become somewhat shallow from silt washed in by flood water draining into the bay during past years. The proposals also include the widening and deepening of the channels between Balboa Island and the mainland from the present depth of 10 feet to a depth of 20 feet. It has been suggested in the report to the county supervisors that the depth of the upper Newport channel be increased from 10 feet to 15 feet. Widening of the main channel running the length of Newport Harbor from the county turning The proposals also include the widening and deepening of the channels between Balboa Island and the mainland from the present depth of 10 feet to a depth of 20 feet. It has been suggested in the report to the county supervisors that the depth of the upper Newport channel be increased from 10 feet to 15 feet. Widening of the main channel running the length of Newport Harbor from the county turning basin to the harbor entrance is also proposed. The present width is 200 feet; the proposal would widen the channel to 350 feet; with a depth of 20 feet being maintained. Approval by the harbor commission of the plan is held as favorable for official county approval, with the county assuming part of the costs of improvement. The two projects outlined for immediate start will cost in the neighborhood of $395,000. Legion Officers Installed With Due Ceremony Santa Ana Post Team Aids In Induction Of Elected Members With appropriate ceremony recently elected officers of Anaheim Post, American Legion, were inducted to office Monday night at the post’s clubrooms in the city hall. Assisting in the work was the Santa Ana post team, under direction of H. R. Brinkerhoff. Those installed to office were: Commander Roy C. Helsing; David Proud, first vice commander; H. Baxter, 2nd vice commander; Jess Thatcher, chaplain; Ted Masterson, adjutant and finance officer; Fred Baumberger, sergeant-at-arms. Proud and Baumberger, through unavoidable absence, were inducted by proxy. Others installed were: K. B. Rigby, Claire Liebhart, W. E. Fennell and Ben Kaulbars, as members of the post’s executive committee. Among matters presented to the post’s meeting was the announcement that the organization had been placed in charge of the Air Raid warning service, of which there are 20 such bodies in the county. Glen A. Peck was placed in charge of the Anaheim branch and made four squad assignments, Herb E. Carter. That's the individual whose biography appears in this column today. Business? He hasn’t any of his own, although he attends to other people’s business quite regularly. You see, he's Anaheim agent for the Railway Express Agency, 112 So. Claudina. He lives at 505 So. Indiana. Herbert E's, connection with the agency started in 1919 at Santa Ana, where he “motored” a horse and wagon for about a year; was then entrusted with a truck. He tended to business so assiduously that he was advanced to bill clerk; then cashier; still later he was advanced to relief agent at various offices. In 1936 he was placed in charge of the Anaheim office, where he has been stationed ever since. Carter was born at St. Joseph, Mo., Nov. 24, 1899; son of James Thomas Carter and Caroline Rosa Carter (nee Freund). Following his grammar school years he was a graduate of Santa Ana high school and a student at the University of Southern California, where he majored in business administration. In April, 1924, he married Gertrude Mary Alton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James R. Alton, at Riverside. This union has been blessed with three charming daughters; June Rae, born in 1926; Caroline Celia, '32 and Joan Mary, '34. His favorite recreations are: Fishing, hunting (ducks), gardening, football, baseball and all outdoor sports. Needless to say that the express business is his absorbing topic. Long association and efficiency has caused him to adopt the slogan—“The best there is in transportation.” And rightfully so for the Railway Express Agency is not surpassed in speed and service by any transport methods. Through efficient service citrus fruits, vegetables and other perishables are expeditiously transited under full protection of refrigeration to any place in the United States at reduced rates. Throughout the union over 90,000 offices are devoted to Chamber Banquet Plans Progress Good Entertainment Listed With Hollywood Artists Appearing in Program Good progress is being made on the plans for the annual Chamber of Commerce banquet to be held on the evening of Thursday, October 9, at the Elk’s club house, many entertainers being listed for the occasion. Chief among those to appear will be Rookie Lewis, Los Angeles, who is a headliner in the entertainment field. Lewis will be master of ceremonies for the evening and ably supported by nine professional theatrical acts will present a program seldom seen outside of a regular circuit. Other features for the evening are being considered and, when appearance is assured, due announcement will be made. The committee in charge of the event intend to make the evening one that will long be remembered. Bread Prices In Anaheim Go Up Material Cost Increase Requires Slight Price Raise At Many Places Living costs in Anaheim are on the upward trend, as indicated by a raise in the price of bread in the past day or so. The pound loaf was raised to nine cents; the 24-ounce loaf stood a two-cent raise, now standing at 12 cents. The price raise became general throughout Southern California, states William F. Ireland, secretary of Associated Bakeries of Southern California. An advance in the cost of baking ingredients and production required that the raise be made, he stated.

Bass fishing is rated as fair, with some improvement shown. The lake will be open all year for fishing.

At present he is supply sergeant for Co. K. California State Guard. Affiliations are: Anaheim BPOE No. 1345; Isaak Walton League; Fusileer. Politically, for the best man. Rotarians Hear Talk By Leader An address of more than passing interest was given Anaheim Rotary last Monday when Fred L. Annable, district governor, was introduced to the members by Dr. Howard Tews, president of the local Rotary. Touching on the responsibilities of the club as an international organization, he expressed the belief that closer relations with South American countries were of paramount issue; that the Spanish language should be given more consideration.

Tax Exemptions End This Month, States Auditor Penalties Avoided Should Prompt Payments be made; Special Law Ends Sept. 80 Special bargains in delinquent taxes will be off with the ending of September. County Auditor Leslie H. Eckel informs tax payers. Special legislation, known as Chapter 890, permitted back taxes to be paid without penalties, interest only being added, unless the taxes were those of 1940-41 only. With no previous taxes remaining unpaid. "The special law has brought many people into the office," Eckel commented, "and tax collections have been greater than is usual during the summer months. The greatest advantage has been to persons who have arranged in the past to pay out on back taxes on installments, but who redeem in full under the special law. However, in many instances there are distinct savings when redemption is made in September. "But the law ends this month, and after that penalties will be resumed. These include the Tax Collector's penalties and costs, which are in addition to redemption penalties. It is a state law and will not be extended, as only the Legislature has power to do that."

The main item in considering the abandoning of the MWD service was the expense, it being shown that it would cost in excess of $19,000 per year to maintain that service. The established cost of MWD water is given as $15 per acre foot, the chargeable rate for Santa Ana. This rate, in addition to that charged for city well water, would bring the cost to $24,720 per year, even with a mixture of one part MWD and two parts city well. It was pointed out that the new service would always be available, remaining as an insurance to the city against drought or other unforeseen conditions. Following a pro and con debate, with views being expressed by residents present, the council vote was unanimous for discontinuance of MWD service. County Counsel Office Created By Supervisors Joel E.

Ogle to the post. Ogle's appointment as county counsel, effective as of October 17, was made under authority of a bill passed by the last legislative session providing creation of such a post in counties having more than 100,000 population. The position carries with it a monthly salary of $500 and is of four year's duration. Prior to his appointment Ogle was assistant to George Holden, district attorney, whose department will now handle criminal matters only, with Ogle handling all civil matters pertaining to county affairs. The personnel of the new office will be taken from that of the district attorney. The appointment, coming out of a clear sky, caught official quarters by surprise. Presented as an amendment to the salary ordinance by Supervisor Fred Rowland four members of the board endorsed the move, with objection being made by Supervisor N. E. West, who stated that he was opposed to the creation of any office paying more than $5,400 a year until lower bracket salaries for county employees had been raised. Public Administrator Earl R. Abbey challenged the board's action on the grounds that it deprived his department from receiving patronage of private attorneys, with a resultant loss in fees revenue to the county. Supervisors held that the administration savings would be an offset, with greater efficiency in conducting county affairs. In addition to county matters Ogle will take over jurisdiction in abating public nuisances.

Warren has accepted the county chairmanship of the nurses' aides committee and a study of needs will be undertaken at once.
