ANAHEIM GAZETTE Established 1870 HENRY KUCHEL, Editor and Publisher 1887-1935 Mrs. Henry Kuchel Theodore B. Kuchel Editors and Publishers The Anaheim Gazette has been owned and edited by the same family since 1875. Published every Thursday at 269 East Center Street, Anaheim, California. Subscription Per Year, $2.00 — Six Months $1.00 Entered as second-class matter at the Post Office at Anaheim, California, under the Act of March 8, 1875. Federalization Of Jobless Fund Following is an editorial appearing in the Manchester, (N. H.), Union regarding federalization of state unemployment systems. This move, on the part of the Federal government, strikes a direct blow at California where the act has been well administered, having around a ten-million dollar reserve. The absorbtion of this reserve into the federal treasury in return for an IOU is not in the best interests of California. The editorial follows: Federalizing Job Insurance There will be widespread interest throughout the country in the demand of State Labor Commissioner Danaher, of Connecticut, that a Federal Security Administrator McNutt disclose the details of his plan for the federalization of the 48 State unemployment insurance systems. Of late Mr. McNutt has carried on a speaking campaign in favor of the federalization move, which is understood to have the endorsement of the administration. The details of this move have not been made clear, but as near as can be discovered the proposal is for the Federal Government to take over the unemployment compensation offices of the 48 States and pool their reserves, to be spent, as the old-age-pension reserve is spent, part of such States as New Hampshire, where unemployment compensation has been handled wisely and satisfactorily. A few States in the Union have encountered bad management in their unemployment compensation administration in estimating the ratio of their unemployment taxes and benefits. It may be that this fact lies somewhere in the background of the McNutt proposal for federalization. But it is impossible to justify the penalizing of States whose unemployment compensation systems have been well operated because of the mismanagement of a few others. Employers in well-managed States, who have obtained merit ratings because they provide steady employment, would be forced to lose those ratings and pay higher unemployment taxes than they do under the present competent State management. Southland Development Hope To Effect R Expecting Southern Californians with 60 per cent of the state's balloting power, to express a revision in the Breed act and polls next election, the South Counties Development association this week announced the appointment of a committee for Orlando county. The association, sponsors or initiative petition in the congressional reallocating gas tax receipts more equitably to the Southland, through its spokesman, ward P. Backs of Anaheim, member of the board of directors said: BREED ACT "The present Breed act, long bone of contention, is out of it. It appropriates money to be sent on highways on the basis of mary mileage without regard need. Thus, we find the course comprising the Northern district with 40 per cent of the auto biles, receiving 55 per cent of funds, while the counties coming the Southern district, having 60 per cent of the cars, paying two-thirds of the tax, are receiving a much smaller amount." "As long, however, as the thern district elects 28 members the State senate out of 40, we not expect any help from the islature. The Southland., having per cent of the registered however, can take care of problem at the polls, and then what we intend to do," Baker. NO HARDSHIP "Our initiative amendment, speaker continued," is extreme simple and works no hardship." on a speaking campaign in favor of the federalization move, which is understood to have the endorsement of the administration. The details of this move have not been made clear, but as near as can be discovered the proposal is for the Federal Government to take over the unemployment compensation offices of the 48 States and pool their reserves, to be spent, as the old-age-pension reserve is spent, for Government purposes, in return for a Government I O U. If this is correct, there is ground for the strongest objection on the McNutt proposal for federalization. But it is impossible to justify the penalizing of States whose unemployment compensation systems have been well operated because of the mismanagement of a few others. Employers in well-managed States, who have obtained merit ratings because they provide steady employment, would be forced to lose those ratings and pay higher unemployment taxes than they do under the present competent State management.

Depot, Anaheim Depot at Los Angeles and Santa Ana Streets Southland Development Association Appoints Committee; Hope To Effect Revision In Breed Act At Next Election Expecting Southern California issues, with 60 per cent of the bills balloting power, to effect revision in the Breed act at the next election, the Southern counties Development association, week announced the appointment of a committee for Orange County. The association, sponsors of an active petition in the coming month on reallocating gas tax reserves more equitably to the South through its spokesman, Ed P. Backs of Anaheim, member of the board of directors, ED ACT The present Breed act, long a contention, is out of date. Propriates money to be spent highways on the basis of premiumage without regard to Thus, we find the counties arising the Northern district 40 per cent of the automobile receiving 55 per cent of the taxes, while the counties comprise the Southern district, having per cent of the cars, paying thirds of the tax, are receivable much smaller amount. As long, however, as the North district elects 28 members to state senate out of 40, we can expect any help from the legislature. The Southland., having 60 per cent of the registered vote, never can take care of the items at the polls, and that is why we intend to do," Baker said. HARDSHIP Our initiative amendment," the latter continued," is extremely wide and works no hardship or state. It bases fund allocation between the Northern and Southern districts on vehicle registration, the only equitable method. "This change," Backs contended, "will make available an additional seven millions of dollars annually for expenditures in the Southland." LOCAL MEMBERS Anaheim members of the Orange county committee, in addition to Backs, are: G. T. Masterson, Robert H. Boney, and Lotus H. Loudon.

CENTER ST. ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Sunkist Makes Strong Gains EVERYONE who has a stake in the growing of citrus fruits should read the Annual Report of the General Manager of the California Exchange for more advertising and dealer service work to build a bigger consumer demand—the most pressing need of the industry today. The premium price received for Sunkist fruit pays dividends. Strong Gains EVERYONE who has a stake in the growing of citrus fruits should read the Annual Report of the General Manager of the California Fruit Growers Exchange for the year ending October 31, 1941, a copy of which will be mailed to all growers. Here are some highlights: The volume of fruit handled and the total acreage represented in Exchange membership reached an all-time high. The marketing cost of the Exchange, including the average district exchange, was the lowest in many years. It amounted to only...5.97 cents per packed box. For this charge, lowest in the industry, Exchange growers receive many extra services not provided by other marketing agencies. All are important aids in increasing growers' returns and reducing costs. Increased Exchange membership and fruit sales, coupled with larger per-box advertising retains on oranges and lemons, made possible more advertising and dealer service work to build a bigger consumer demand—the most pressing need of the industry today. The premium price received for Sunkist fruit pays dividends on this investment. The expanded Sunkist advertising program is given a large share of the credit for the improved citrus market of the past year. During the Navel season, for example, Exchange orange sales were 14% greater than in any previous year. Florida sales were 1% below their previous record. On a percentage basis, California's price-premium over Florida was the greatest on record. To read the Report is to get a broad picture of the value of large-scale cooperation and to vision what might further be accomplished with the support of growers and shippers now outside. If you are interested in better citrus returns, let's talk it over now—at the address below or at any district exchange or Sunkist packing house. CALIFORNIA FRUIT GROWERS EXCHANGE FORTY-EIGHTH YEAR OF COOPERATIVE CITRUS MARKETING Growers Service Department Sunkist Building, 707 West Fifth Street Los Angeles (MUtual 7211) Sunkist ORANGES • LEMONS GRAPEFRUIT Local Growers Urged To Cooperate With Agricultural Board Anaheim farmers and orchardists who did not sign pledges of cooperation during Food-for-Freedom week, will be afforded the opportunity during the balance of November, was the announcement today by Walter Schmid, chairman of the Orange County USDA Defense board following a recent meeting of the board at Santa Ana. The largest number who did not sign their food for defense pledge were the orchardists, Schmid said. These farmers, he pointed out, did not seem to feel they were included because their land is fully occupied by trees and they felt they could not produce any of the crops for which specific increases were requested. NOT THE CASE “This is not the case, however,” he stated. “In this patriotic sign-up, every grower is included, wheincrease his output. Many can ther he can or whether he cannot grow a home garden in addition to proper care of their orchards.” For the convenience of orchardists, Food-for-Freedom sign-up forms will be available at every citrus and walnut packing house in the county. Orchardists are urged by the USDA committee to visit their packing houses and complete the inventory of Orange county farms.
