SILZLES RETURN FROM SIX WEEKS IN THE EAST "We're not worried about the war between Russia and Germany. We're worried about our own national debt." That was the consensus of opinion expressed by bankers, brokers and businessmen in Washington and New York when they were asked by Anaheim visitors, Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Silzle of 119 E. North st., recently. The Silzles with their children, Jacqueline and Billy, returned last week from a six week trip in Eastern United States and Canada in which they travelled over 9500 miles by car. Combining business with pleasure, the Silzles' first stop was in Washington D. C. where the children were allowed to be present at a session of the Senate. They also visited the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the Nation's capitol. Here the Anaheim people talked with many business men and women. The general opinion was that Germany, like Japan in China, would in time be assimilated in Russia, no matter how far the Russian armies are pushed back. The worry of the people in business does not extend across the seas but is in our own country regarding our indebtedness, and what will follow the defense boom. From Washington, the Silzle family traveled through the New England states, into Montreal, Nova Scotia and then down the Atlantic coast. They heard an interesting story at the Baltimore seaport where torpedoed ships were being repaired. It was said that a merchant marine carrying a water cargo to Africa and five days out to sea, was torpedoed during the night. The crew got From Washington, the Silzle family traveled through the New England states, into Montreal, Nova Scotia and then down the Atlantic coast. They heard an interesting story at the Baltimore seaport where torpedoed ships were being repaired. It was said that a merchant marine carrying a water cargo to Africa and five days out to sea, was torpedoed during the night. The crew got out the lifeboats and paddled around until daybreak. As soon as the sun shone through, the ship, unsunk, stood solidly a mile from them. They went aboard and continued their voyage to Africa with their water cargo, left it at the Dark Continent, and returned to Baltimore, still aboard the torpedoed ship. There was, however, only 17 inches more of the ship to go into the water before it would have sunk. Because of the Silzles' interest in the citrus industry, they travelled south to Florida and examined the canning plants in that state. It was reported there that the grapefruit crop for this year will be smaller and that the orange crop is normal but will be later. The Silzles noticed that the canning industry is not as advanced as in southern California but that there is a closer cooperation between companies and not so much competition. Turning their headlights toward the west, the Silzles motored through the gulf states, stopping at Mobile, New Orleans, Houston, Carlsbad Caverns and Bryce and Zion National Parks. In Kansas, they also noticed that the midwestern farmers are opposed to our giving any materials away to the allies or to conquered nations. In Canada, instead of waiting until the end of the year to collect income and other taxes, the government is collecting each month. As for weather, the Silzles enjoyed "smooth sailing" until they reached Texas, where they encountered a thunder storm.
