To Pay Tribute To War Heroes Of World War II
“War Heroes Day,” sponsored by the US Treasury department, and planned as the greatest patriotic demonstration ever held in Southern California, will be celebrated in Los Angeles Monday to honor 16 heroes of World War II, whose exploits on land, in the air, and on the seas have been written in banner type across the front pages of the world.
To make this event possible, the valiant American and British fighting men are being flown here by the War department to bring intimate, personalized reports to the American people and for the first time since the start of the war, Lt. General De Witt has approved, subject to war conditions on the day, large crowds of people who will gather to honor the War Heroes.
Civil Air Patrol Part of LA Flight
The Orange county branch of the Civil Air Patrol, made up of trained civilian volunteers, which began its basic training program last week will become “B” flight squadron of the Los Angeles squadron 918-2, Bob Hill, Orange county leader, said today.
Because of the ban on civilian flying in this state, the CAP has not been operating under the supervision of the Army air force.
Motor Vehicle Apportionment to City Of $8,391.66 Announced In Sacramento
Motor Vehicle Apportionment to City Of $8,391.66 Announced In Sacramento
Apportionments of $8,391.66 in motor vehicle license fees to Anaheim, and of $72,396.22 to Orange county were announced today in Sacramento by the Department of Motor Vehicles.
These apportionments represent vehicle license fee collections for the period, July 1, 1941 to March 31, 1942.
This tax, also known as the "in lieu" tax formerly was collected by cities and counties as a personal property levy.
The local apportionments were based on a population of 11,031 for the city and of 130,760 for the county and were a portion of a grand total of $9,50,811.58 apportioned to all the cities and the counties of California. The grand total is about $100,000 less than for the same period of 1941.
Don Dargatz Stationed On Isle of Oahu
Don Dargatz, now Private First class, Coast Artillery, who will be remembered here as the tall, blond lad who worked in the old Alpha Beta market at Emily and Center streets, is now stationed with his company on the Island of Oahu, in the Hawaiian group, according to a letter received by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Dargatz, Route 4, Box 59, Anaheim.
Don's letter, reporting that he was in good health, also sung the beauties of Oahu's tropical climate, the sugar plantations, and pineapple growing. He went into the army eight months ago, and has been stationed on Oahu for a month now.
School Busses to Transport Workers
The ruling that school busses may be used to transport farm labor to and from work was made known today by C. M. McCulloch of Placentia, chairman of the Orange county agricultural planning committee.
The use of the busses depends upon a four-fifths vote by the Navy Men Dedicate Elks Service Flag
Elks service flag with 24 stars was dedicated last night at the local lodge with five officers from the Naval Recruiting Station in Los Angeles participating in the ceremonies.
An honor roll, designed by Exalted Ruler Al DeWitt, was exhibited in the lobby of the lodge. It contains the name, address and rank of each Anaheim Elk now in service. Rev. D. Howard Dow of St. Michael's Episcopal church offered prayer during the special service.
Navy men present were Chief Signalman Ed Meinhab, Chief Yoeman D. W. Crites, Chief Water Tender J. J. Heissner, Yoeman First Class L. Herman and Yoeman Second Class F. J. Kennedy.
Two new members were initiated into the lodge, U. F. Bauer and Andrew A. Bane. There was one reinstatement, Ralph Welsh, and Robert Jones became a member of the Anaheim Lodge after his release from the Elliston, North Dakota Lodge.
Local Groups Take Part in Campaign
Anaheim Chamber of Commerce and women's clubs have been asked to participate in this statewide Civil Air Patrol, made up of trained civilian volunteers, which began its basic training program last week will become “B” flight squadron of the Los Angeles squadron 918-2, Bob Hill, Orange county leader, said today.
Because of the ban on civilian flying in this state, the CAP has not been operating under the supervision of the Army air force. However, the California wing command has carried its training program so far that it now commands, not private flyers, but disciplined volunteers, ready to carry out war zone missions with military precision.
Members of the CAP were private pilots and airport enthusiasts before December 7 and are now giving their time to prepare to be of use in the war effort. Both men and women may join the patrol which needs pilots, mechanics, radio operators, clerical workers and guides.
Church Delegates Attend Conference
Delegates from the three Methodist churches of Anaheim will be present at the annual conference of Methodist churches from Southern California and Arizona at Los Angeles, beginning today and ending next Wednesday.
About 1000 ministers and laymen are expected to attend the meetings with Bishop James C. Baker of Pasadena as presiding officer. White Temple delegates are Rev. Thomas L. Burden and D. Lyman Harpster. Alternate is Paul Demaree. Friday will be Women's day and members of the WSCS are expected to attend.
Delegates from the Wesley Methodist church will be Rev. Fred M. Essig and George Fendley. Those from the Free Methodist church are Rev. Bergen Birdsall and W. K. Yellis. Others planning to attend are Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Martin and Miss Barbara Ginder.
School Busses to Transport Workers
The ruling that school busses may be used to transport farm labor to and from work was made known today by C. M. McCulloch of Placentia, chairman of the Orange county agricultural planning committee.
The use of the busses depends upon a four-fifths vote by the school district board stating that a real emergency exists because of shortage of other transportation and necessity of preventing loss of crop. It was pointed out that transportation charges made for the service could not be more than the cost of operation and that school busses will not lose their right to new tires because of their use in transporting agricultural workers to and from farms.
Signup Conducted For Nature School
Registration for the Audubon Nature School and Camp at the Dorothy May Tucker Bird Sanctuary in Modjeska Canyon is being conducted this week, according to Miss Blanche Vignos, business manager.
Three one-week courses will be offered from August 10 to August 31. During this time, field trips demonstrations, lectures and group talks will be conducted for teachers, students, garden club enthusiasts, counselors, group leaders and anyone interested in out-of-doors. Tuition for one week is $7.50 and living expenses are cited at $16.00 per week, including meals, a tent and a cot.
Local Groups Take Part in Campaign
Anaheim Chamber of Commerce and women's clubs have been asked this week to assume leadership in the intensive campaign being conducted by fourteen statewide civic, business and agricultural organizations to insure California citizens to register and to qualify for voting before July 1, closing date for registration.
The campaign is being conducted entirely on a non-political, non-partisan basis, without reference to issues or candidates. According to the president of the State Chamber of Commerce, it is particularly urgent this year to have the maximum vote cast at both primary and final elections in order to preserve, at home, the democracy for which our troops are fighting abroad.
ON THE OFFENSIVE AMERICA!
Wars are won by attacking, not by sitting in a fort!
And today America is taking the offensive against the Axis with hard-fighting, non-stoppable men and materials!
We're taking the offensive, too, against the enemy at home—the inflationary 6th column that blows prices sky high.
You can help in both fights by saving at least 10% of your money in U.S. War Bonds every pay day. Attack the Axis with your dollars today.
You can start with as little as a 10c War Stamp and you can get a $25.00 War Bond (maturity value) for only $18.75—at your local post office, bank or other convenient sales agency.

Excerpts From Letter Written By An Italian
"In Italy there is no new Fascism but there is Nazis harmful, destructive of all ideals of religion, family country."
This statement is taken from letter written by an Italian can shortwave broadcasters to continue transmitting the truth Nazi-dominated Europe.
SMUGGLED OVER
The letter, according to Marco Maestro, chief of the CBS Italia news section, evidently was smugged over the Italian border for Milan and mailed by anti-Fascist friends in Switzerland.
Portions of the text of the English translation follows:
"The writer of this letter is Italian who listens whenever turbances do not prevent him doing so to your words we come through the air. I send greetings also in the name of many others listeners.
WORTHY OF NAME
"The Italians who are worthy of the name—that those who know the values life, who appreciate noble feelings and despise baseness, fit in you a support and a guide."
"Do not fail to understand soul of so many of your broth who are living in slavery, who the objects of violence on..."
Recipes Taken From The Cookbooks Of Wives of Men in Armed Forces
(Editor’s note: The following two recipes are first in a series contributed by wives of Naval and Marine Corps officers. They have gathered them here and there throughout the world. All are guaranteed to be delicious. Many until now have been the coveted secrets of some of the service’s most popular hostesses.)
POPOVERS
A Navy captain’s wife contributes this recipe and she promises that is is fool-proof:
1 cup flour
¼ tsp. salt
1 cup milk
2 eggs
½ tsp. melted shortening
Mix salt and flour, add half of the milk. Beat until smooth. Then add remaining half of the milk, well-beaten eggs and shortening. Beat two minutes with egg beater. Turn into a hot greased iron pan. Bake about 35 minutes in hot oven, 450 Fah., until they pop, then reduce temperature to about 350 Fah., and cook about 15 minutes longer. Popoyers also can be made using 1/3 cup of whole wheat flour and 2/3 cup white flour.
CORN BEEF HASH
There is hash and hash, but this recipe from a Navy Commander’s wife is hash de luxe—and it is delicious!
Peel, slice and parboll ½ pound fresh mushrooms in small amount of water for ten minutes. Peel and slice medium size onions and brown slightly in two tablespoons of bacon fat. Add two cans corn beef cut in small cubes, also two medium size potatoes, cubed. Add mushrooms and the liquid they were cooked in, plus one level tablespoon sugar. Simmer gently for 30 minutes; stir frequently. Add small amount of water from time to time, if mixture requires it.

WARTIME TRAVEL
is not "As Usual"
The pleasant days of travel "as usual" will come again. But right now the war job comes first—and the traveling public must expect some inconvenience and delay. Greyhound is cooperating fully with the Office of Defense Transportation in Washington, D.C., to provide essential service for all those who must keep rolling to keep America rolling—selectees, fighting men and war workers.
The pleasant days of travel "as usual" will come again. But right now the war job comes first—and the traveling public must expect some inconvenience and delay. Greyhound is cooperating fully with the Office of Defense Transportation in Washington, D.C., to provide essential service for all those who must keep rolling to keep America rolling—selectees, fighting men and war workers.
THIS NECESSITATES:
Operating only essential service.
Eliminating extra buses if not sufficiently loaded.
Reducing operating speed and eliminating fast, limited schedules.
Establishing cooperative service with other companies over certain routes to reduce bus mileage.
Conserving rubber and other vital materials by the above and other means.
HOW YOU CAN HELP:
Make your trips short—as close to home as possible.
Travel only during mid-week—Tuesday to Thursday. Week-end travel is congested by military personnel and war workers.
Carry as little baggage as possible.
Be lenient if there is any inconvenience, delay or crowding.
Think twice before taking any trip—postpone it if you can.
Buy U.S. War Bonds and Stamps.
THE WAR EFFORT COMES FIRST!
