Page Six of the ANAHEIM GAZETTE February 5, 1942 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 259 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, 1879. Editorially Speaking-- Once Upon A Time! One upon a time, in the dear, dead days beyond recall, there used to be such a thing as waste paper, scrap metal, and plain everyday, ordinary junk of all descriptions. That no longer seems a fit designation for products so indispensable in the year of war, 1942. The nation, according to estimates, needs 14 billion pounds of the so-called waste paper. Its prime use is to furnish raw pulp for making corrugated packing boxes in which vast amounts of supplies are sent to our armed forces. The US war machine demands scrap iron and metal of most all kinds, waste paper, scrap rubber, etc., to be found in every home. These materials, if handed over to local junk dealers or charitable institutions for delivery to production mills would provide a monthly return of surprising scope for charitable campaigns in addition to putting over the war effort. Experiential collections in Anaheim this week prove that there is an average of fifteen pounds of scrap metal in every household; that 50 pounds of waste paper accumulates in homes here every month. You can cooperate in war production, and help yourself by gathering up such materials and selling them. You can cooperate still more by calling any one of several local civic organizations listed on page one of this edition and giving away your scrap material. Do it now! BANK ON YOUR COUNTRY Californians Set New Gas Record Establishing a new annual record, California motorists more than two billion gallons taxable gasoline in 1941, it reported by Richard E. Cochran chairman of the State Board of Equalization. Complete reports for the current year were made available; the receipt of returns from distribution of gasoline made during the month of December. RECORDS SHOW Board records show that a total of 2,122,039,177 gallons of taxable gasoline was distributed during the 1941 12-month period. On basis the board assessed a tax mounting to $63,661,175.38, to establish a record far in excess of any prior sales. This amount resented an increase of $6,937.97 over the 1940 gasoline tax a gain of 12.23 per cent of year, Collins explained. The December tax amount was $5,429,658.32, a gain of 14.74 cent over the same month of previous year and well above $5,392,284.19 recorded for November, 1941.

General Lewis B. Hershey, director of Selective Service, said today. In building up an armed force, the general asserted, it is imperative that there be no disturbance to the field of production or to the essential social and economic life of this country. But, he added, those men who seek to avoid military service by flimsy claims of "essential" occupation or dependency will find little sympathy from Selective Service. The General said: DOING ITS PART "The Selective Service system is confronted with the problem of doing its part in solving three important questions. "I. The first is to determine the number of men and women necessary to do the things which must be done to bring victory. This includes service in the Army, Navy, and Marine corps. It includes the operation of all industries engagag- BANK ON YOUR COUNTRY Housewives In Coastal Cities Urged Not To Buy New Blackout Curtains Housewives in coastal cities are urged today by the Consumer Division of the Office of Price Administration not to rush out to buy new material for blackout curtains. It is suggested that householders ed in producing the munitions of war. It includes all of the men, women and children who are producing food. It includes all of those persons who are maintaining the structure of society. SECOND QUESTION "2. The second question is—how many individuals are there in the United States capable of partici-pating in this effort for victory. What are the skills of each. The Selective Service system has a definite responsibility to aid in the procurement of this information by registrants and surveys. "3. The third question—how are we to apply our supply of men to the needs which are fundamental and vital. The Selective Service system has a definite task in the solution of this problem so far as it applies to the induction of men into the armed forces. It has a direct responsibility to aid in the solution of this problem by leaving in their present jobs individuals who are engaged in producing war material, essential food, or in maintaining the structure of our national life. This includes the training of students and apprentices who are preparing for skills or professions in which there are scarcities."

It is suggested that householders use material already at hand in the home in order to avoid an unexpected and sudden expense. Even more important, this precaution will help ease the strain that an abnormal civilian demand would place upon our textile industry, now working overtime on military orders, and it will prevent needless drain of the country's supply of textile goods. FOLLOWING SUGGESTIONS The Consumer Division has formulated the following suggestions on blackout curtaining: 1. Do not go out immediately to buy material for blackout curtains. Find out whether you will need them at all. The signal to prepare for blackouts will come from Civilian Defense authorities. 2. If you need blackout curtains, examine your own resources. Go through your trunks, search the attic and eclair. Such things as blankets, quilts, bedspreads, rugs, carpets, draperies, dark oil-cloth, overcoats, slip covers, etc., may be found adequate. 3. Put your cloth through a test. To be acceptable, it must pass no light when held before a lighted electric bulb. 4. All windows in the house or apartment need not be curtained. One room should be used exclusively during the blackout and only the windows of this one room need be curtained. 5. The cloth used in blackout curtaining need not be black. It may be dark blue, brown, dark green, wine—any dark color that screens the light. 6. In hanging the blackout curtains, remember that you need ventilation. Windows ought to be left partly open and the curtains should be constructed with this in mind. The curtains should be heavy or securely fastened above and below the window. 7. Your curtain must cover the window. 8. Use of black or dark blue paint to cover windows may fit some situations but is not recommended for the average householder. 9. A wooden frame may be built to fit tightly over the window frame with a flat section of black-painted cardboard of with wood of plywood, covering it. REMEMBER PEARL HARBOR Government Will Aid Taxpayers Making it easier for taxpayers to meet future increased taxes required by the national War program, the treasury department announced today that it is offering for sale two series of notes, both dated Aug. 1, 1941 and maturing Aug. 1, 1943. In January of each year, two new series will be provided so that a taxpayer can always purchase notes during the entire year in which he is receiving his income for use in payment of taxes due the following year. The reason for the two-year note is to permit a taxpayer, if he so desires, to begin saving in January of one year and continue through that year to save for his taxes due the following year.

Federal Income Tax Collections Show Over 700 Per Cent Increase Collections from Federal Income taxes last week showed an increase of more than 700 per cent over last year, according to a statement issued by Nat Rogan, collector of internal revenue for Southern California. "In a check-up as of the close of business on Saturday night, January 24," stated Rogan, "our figures show that we have collected eight times as much money as we did in the first twenty-four days of January 1941. PART OF INCREASE Part of this increase is due, of course, to the lowered exemptions, and the rise in surtax rates which seem to be producing about four times much revenue from last year's taxpayers. Then, too, there is a large number of new taxpayers who are filing this year for the first time," declared Rogan. "An upswing of 242.6 per cent has been registered in the number of taxable forms 1040 over last year, and the number of taxable forms 1040A has increased 148.3 per cent," added Rogan. PENNEY'S J. O.
