Rousing Welcome accorded To Republican Party Chief Throngs Greet Joseph W. Martin On His Arrival In Los Angeles; Leaves For San Francisco Today One of the greatest greeting demonstrations ever witnessed in Los Angeles took place yesterday when Joseph W. Martin, jr., chairman of the Republican National Committee, arrived in that city for the purpose of holding consultation with party leaders of Southern California and to address two rally meetings of the Republican party. Shortly after the noon hour Martin made appearance at the Biltmore Bowl, which was filled to overflowing with the immediate vicinity crowded with people who wished to hear the address of the party leader over the public address system. In well chosen words he gave outline of party progress and political commentary, his remarks being received with thunderous applause. At the conclusion of the Bowl session he met with party leaders from this section of the state. In the evening he attended a second rally, sponsored by the Women's Political Club, a colored organization, held at the Second Baptist church. In excess of 2,000 persons were present and loudly cheered the speaker's remarks. At an early hour this morning Martin, accompanied by State Senator Thomas H. Kuchel, chairman of the state central committee and other prominent party leaders left by plane for San Francisco where he will confer with party leaders of that section. Johnston Frank In Statements Before Kiwanis Sec. Chamber of Commerce Presents Pertinent Facts To Members at Meeting With a frankness supported by truisms, John M. Johnston, secretary of Anaheim chamber of commerce, at Tuesday's meeting of the Kiwanis club, literally laid his cards on the table when he presented views on future plans of the chamber; also his own. In presenting his subject Johnston likened himself to a pilgrim in a strange land or forest. He not only saw the forest, but he saw each individual tree in the forest. The merchants in Anaheim, he stated, are overlooking the individual trees; they are seeing just the forest. As an enlargement on his remark, he continued with a brief history of the chamber of commerce. At first the chamber was composed of a few men who ran the community as they State Senator To State Senator To Run for Congress In New District John Phillips, Riverside, Announces Candidacy For Post at Washington, D.C. Through a recent enactment of the state legislature a new congressional district has been formed in Southern California, the 22nd. The new political subdivision includes Imperial, Orange and Riverside counties and, of course, is entitled to a representative in congress. Tentative feelers on the public mind as to who would shy their hat in the political ring for approval of the people, have been numerous with none coming out right in a declaration of their candidacy for the high honor at Washington. There has been one exception noted, lately, with State Senator John Phillips of Banning, Riverside county, coming out openly and announcing himself as a candidate for the new seat at the nation's capital. Phillips, as a member of the state legislature, has given a good account of himself and will at a later date announce his platform.

Kuchel, chairman of the state central committee and other prominent party leaders left by plane for San Francisco where he will confer with party leaders of that section. The merchants in Anaheim, he stated, are overlooking the individual trees; they are seeing just the forest. As an enlargement on his remark, he continued with a brief history of the chamber of commerce. At first the chamber was composed of a few men who ran the community as they thought best, he said. Today the chamber is more of a service board; the merchants can bring their problems and troubles to the chamber of commerce, which, in turn, will try to solve those problems. Composed of two branches; Merchant's association and the chamber itself, they are separate organizations with interlocking interests, maintained separately. The chamber branch is open throughout the day as a full-time proposition; the Merchant's association does not function on a full-time basis as business men cannot spare all of their time to the interests of that body. The larger part of their problems are presented to the chamber for consideration. Progress in Orange county is coming, stated Secretary Johnston; whether we see it at once or not. We must gear our program to meet future defense movements, for Orange county is going to get on the band wagon. In commenting on employment problems he admonished that for the good of the business people; the question of the labor situation (wage program); every man should be fair; pay the proper wages that a decent living may be had; all work together and co-operate as a whole. This, he stated, would do away with labor organization agitation. Joe Sowder, as chairman of the day, introduced Secretary Johnston to the meeting. Among other transactions of the day was the announcement that Everett Cone had been nominated for president, with Fred Backs being placed in nomination for the office of secretary. Frank Kellogg was a guest of the club.

COUNTY ATTORNIES MAKE PROTEST ON SUPERVISORS’ COUNSEL MOVE What promises to be a contest on legal jurisdiction was launched at Tuesday’s meeting of the board of supervisors, which was attended by 35 members of the Orange County Bar association. While approving of the creation of county counsel position and the naming of Joel L. Ogle to that office, the members of the bar did not approve of Ogle serving as counsel for Earl R. Abbey, public administrator. The protest session was led by Thomas L. McFadden; Anaheim attorney, who stated that he did not object to the office as created, but did object to the board requiring that fee monies from administration sources be turned into the county fund. As previously conducted it has been the practice for the public administrator to assign in rotation an attorney to act as counsel for estate matters, paying them the fee required by law. Under the county counsel setup, it was argued, such attorneys were deprived of their fees with the county entering into the law business in direct competition to members of the legal profession. The supervisors were warned that there is serious doubt that the county, as a public corporation, can legally practice law, or that the county could collect two fees from an estate—those of public administrator and counsel. A court test was threatened when the first attempt is made to have the county counsel act as attorney for the public administrator. Many members of the bar association expressed their opinions along the same lines, with numerous offers of legal service should a test case on the legality of the board’s action come into court. At the conclusion of the session, marked by pleas against an encroachment on private enterprise and the defense of a free bar and court as bolsters of democracy, Chairman Willis Warner announced that the board would take the question under advisement.

Previously a site had been selected above the junction of Carbon Canyon and Telegraph Canyou, in the vicinity of the Gaines ranch. Boring tests showed that quake faults existed, which precluded that place from being considered. The new location is about a mile downstream from the original location. Two 16-inch augers are being used for testing purposes at the new location. No sign of quake fault has so far been discovered. With the abandoning of the old site, the proposed name has also been abandoned; the new project now being known as Olinda dam, instead of Carbon canyon dam. Under the Orange county flood control program the U.S. Engineer office was asked to proceed with work on the Olinda dam ahead of others to be bulit in the southern part of the county—at San Juan and Trobuco creek; an official request from the board of supervisors.

Builders Exchange Indicate Early Start Be Made Indications are that work on the West Coast Air Corps Training and Replacement Center near Santa Ana will be commenced within the near future, probably about October 9 or 10. This belief is borne out by the receipt of specifications by the Orange County Builders exchange, covering the project. W. G. Bassett, secretary-manager of the exchange, points out that sealed bids will be received at the Los Angeles office of U. S. Army engineers until noon of October 8. This action on the part of the engineers tends toward prompt construction work on the project. Bassett has made known that Major R. A. Sharrer, executive assistant to Col. Edwin C. Kelton, army engineer, has indicated that the bid award may be made on October 8, or next day. Specifications require that the successful bidder must commence work within one calendar day after receiving notice to proceed.
