State Anticipates Labor Shortages Peach and sugar beet harvests, which started this week, are likely to encounter severe labor shortages before the end of the month, according to the weekly farm labor report released by Ralph G. Wadsworth, state director of the U.S. Employment Service. Estimates of the labor available locally for these crops indicate there may be a shortage of about 8000 workers when the peak demand occurs. The possible shortage in peach picking alone is estimated at about 4500 workers in the San Joaquin Valley and about 200 workers in the Butte-Sutter area of the Sacramento Valley. The peach shortage may be relieved in part or in full by the movement of workers from the apricot harvest just completed, and by the recruiting of additional volunteer workers in towns and metropolitan areas, Wadsworth stated. Substantial groups of workers in the cities are reported to be ready to undertake fruit picking jobs. The sugar beet harvest has commenced in the Salinas Valley and in Yolo county with an estimated immediate shortage of some 1700 workers. The Employment Service is immediately undertaking to recruit qualified workers in Los Angeles county where there has been a pool of unused labor for some time and where a further influx of agricultural workers has recently been reported. The Employment Service is also contacting other states with a view to securing additional beet workers for employment here. There continues to be a need for various kinds of skilled farm workers such as orange pickers and packers, milkers, irrigators, and tractor drivers. Rules Formulated To Prevent Fires In Forest Areas Although the August vacation month finds many Anaheimers remaining quietly at home, there is a steady flow of vacationers toward nearby mountain resorts. For them, advice received from the U.S. Forestry Service through Secretary of Agriculture Claude F. Wickard, will be especially timely. Stating that the ordinary American citizen, and not the criminal or saboteur, was responsible for the majority of last year's devastating forest fires. Wickard launched a vigorous campaign this week, to prevent such needless destruction of our nation's timber and watersheds. Four basic rules were set forth for every American. They are: 1. Break matches in two before throwing them away. 2. Crush out cigar, cigarette or pipe ashes. 3. Be absolutely sure your campfire is completely out. 4. Don't throw anything from a moving automobile. With every visitor to mountain resorts constituting himself a "committee of one" to see that such rules are carried out, one of the Southland's greatest dangers—fires sweeping her watersheds—will be avoided, according to forest rangers. C. of C. Secretary Home From Conclave Returning early this week from San Bernardino where he was in attendance at the Western Institute of Commercial and Trade Association Executives, John M. Johnston has again resumed his activities as secretary of Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. Scores of Chamber of Commerce and trade association executives Prominent Surgeon Is At New Address Dr. H. A. Johnston of the Johnston Clinic on North Claudina street, has moved from the family home on South Los Angeles street, and is now located at his new address, 205 South Claudina street. The Los Angeles street home, one of the handsomest in the city, will be occupied by M. R. Flynn of Los Angeles and his family.

We're not certain as to the island characteristics referred to by young Nevin, as dictating the choice of a name for the paper. If he means it in the slang sense, that editorial alone denies that the editors or staff could be called "gooney." Probably he refers instead to the various large sea birds of the Pacific islands, called "goneys" and including several species of the albatross. C. of C. Secretary Home From Conclave Returning early this week from San Bernardino where he was in attendance at the Western Institute of Commercial and Trade Association Executives, John M. Johnston has again resumed his activities as secretary of Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. Scores of Chamber of Commerce and trade association executives gathered at the conclave held in Arrowhead Springs hotel from August 2 to 7, inclusive. Eric Johnston of Washington, D. C., was among prominent men present. He is president of Chamber of Commerce of the U. S. A. Program and social events were all subordinated to the present war situation, and one of the highlights of the conclave was the telegram received from Chairman Donald M. Nelson of the War Production Board, congratulating the Institute on converting its week of meetings into a war work training school for executives represented. The meeting was sponsored by University of Southern California and Chamber of Commerce of the United States, in cooperation with Western Chamber of Commerce and California Trade Association executives. Secretary Johnston was among those taking advantage of the fine training course offered for C. of C. executives, which at the conclusion of three successive conclaves, will award certificates to those completing the course.

West to Congress GET THE BEST Representation Your vote for Congressman may be the most important vote you have ever cast. The length of the war, its cost in lives and treasure will largely depend upon the men elected to Congress. Therefore—let's seek men with Statesman-like vision, courage and a keen sense of responsibility. We must have men who will put service to Country above self. The Committee sponsoring N. E. West for Congress assures you, after careful investigation of Congressional candidates, that Mr. West is outstanding. A student of government, a successful business man, a courageous fighter for our freedom, and eight years of brilliant achievement as Orange County Supervisor, point to West as the ideal candidate to represent the new 22nd District.
