Southern California Citrus Foods Provides Anaheim With One Of Its Most Important Industries Everybody remembers the old classic of the Chicago meat packing industries that utilized everything from the pig but its squeal. But Anaheim boasts the Southern California Citrus Foods, Inc., which goes the Chicago industries one better—it has no squeal to contend with, and therefore there is no waste product whatever. Located at 1460 North Olive street, the company's plant is one of the chief industries of the city. Thousands of tons of oranges, lemons and grapefruit are processed there into canned citrus juices and concentrate. Much of these are being supplied to peoples of the United Nations through Lend-Lease channels; similar large quantities are being taken by other government agencies. Built a few years ago by a small group of Orange county cooperative packing associations affiliated with Mutual Orange Distributors, the plant operated first under the name of Cal-Juices, Inc. and became recognized as one of the most modern and best equipped plants of its kind in California. Approximately a year and a half ago, a much larger group of affiliated MOD packing association stook the plant over and changed the name to the present Local Kiwanian Is Nominated To Division Office Holding only a skeleton meeting this week in Elks club cafe, Anaheim Kiwanis club members gave their chief interest to attendance Does All Ointment Have to Contain Its Annoying Fly? Anybody contemplating a trip across the border into Mexico may now breathe a sigh of relief. The Los Angeles office of U.S. Customs has announced that there is now no limit to the amount of money which travelers may take into Mexico—provided that the said cash is in money orders, cashier's checks, traveler's checks, silver or two-dollar bills. Which is all to the good with the mist of us, except for one minor detail which the customary office didn't make clear. Where do we get the money orders, cashier's checks, traveler's checks, silver and two-dollar bills? Supervisor Asks Navy to Enlarge Disposal System Willis H. Warner, chairman of the Orange County board of supervisors, has addressed a request to the U.S. Navy that it enlarge its proposed sewage disposal system at Los Alamitos Air Reservoir base and re-route its outfall line. Built a few years ago by a small group of Orange county cooperative packing associations affiliated with Mutual Orange Distributors, the plant operated first under the name of Cal-Juices, Inc. and became recognized as one of the most modern and best equipped plants of its kind in California. Approximately a year and a half ago, a much larger group of affiliated MOD packing association stook the plant over and changed the name to the present one, Southern California Citrus Foods, Inc. Its business affairs are administered by the same board of directors that serve Mutual Orange Distributors Inc., with Bruce McDaniel, MOD general manager, occupying the same post with the local plant. E. R. Fuller, 756 North Olive street, is superintendent of the plant, whose large payroll contributes a large sum to the buying power of Anaheim residents. Dr. S. W. Green is another important member of the staff, and in his work as chief chemist, is constantly developing new methods and seeking new citrus by-products and their uses. This by-products angle is one of constantly increasing importance, rivalling the tremendous output of thousands of cases and hundreds of barrels of juice and (Please turn to page 5) County Planning Commissioners Attend Conclave The week of September 21 to 26 saw special activity at the Los Angeles Biltmore and Mayfair hotels, where planning commissioners and officials from all over California assembled for the joint convention of California County Planning Commissioners' association, California Housing and Planning association, and Western States Housing Authorities' association. L. Deming Tilton, consultant of the San Francisco Planning commission and former consultant to Orange County Planning commission, acted as chairman for the preliminary program. Jules W. Markel of Santa Ana, representing the County Planning commission, keynoted the convention opening with his inspiring outfit. HARRY L. HORN Tuesday night at a district meeting at which Whittier Kiwanians entertained in William Penn hotel in the Quaker city. This district meeting was on important occasion for local Kiwanians for Harry I. Horn, one of their past presidents an da present member of the board of directors, was nominated to the post of lieutenant governor of Division 4, California-Nevada district. Nomination is tantamount to election, which will be an event of the 22nd annual California-Nevada district convention of Kiwanis International to be held in Los Angeles, October 14 to 16. District Governor Hugh Jackson of Palo Alto will preside over convention sessions. He is dean of the Graduate School of Business of Stanford University and a past president of Palo Alto Kiwanis club. Convention speakers will include Dr. Robert Gordon Sproul, president of University of California; Verne Orr, vice-president of the Chrysler corporation; William Mullendore, president of Southern California Edison company and many others. Anaheim Kiwanis delegates will include the club president, E. M. Cone, Dr. Charles V. Schutz and Dr. M. M. Henderson. President Cone headed the Anaheim group attending the Tuesday night meeting in Whittier. More than a score of local members were present and heard the fine address on "World Trade Versus World Peace," presented by Dr. Elan J. Anderson, president of Redlands Univeristy. Farmers Committee Will Ration Willis H. Warner, chairman of the Orange County board of supervisors, has addressed a request to the U.S. Navy that it enlarge its proposed sewage disposal system at Los Alamitos Air Reservoir base and re-route its outfall line in order to make it possible for the civilian community to hook up own sanitary system to that of the Navy whenever the project may develop. The Navy recently submitted plans and specifications for a proposed Air Base sewage system to the board of supervisors, approval of the right-of-way franchise for the line. There has been much discussion of late regarding the formation of a sanitary district at Los Alamitos, and Warner considers that his proposal to the Navy would make such action unnecessary, and simplify matters considerably. He has suggested that the outfall line from the treatment plant south of the air base, be west to Los Alamitos boulevard thus making it possible to provide connections which that community may wish to make at a later date. Plans submitted to supervisors, were for the outfall line run south to Garden Grove boulevard and then west to San Gervais river. Warner also suggested that size of the outfall line be increased to a minimum of 25 inches which would be sufficient to take care of both the Air base and the Italian community. Three Anaheim Meetings Among County's 33 Navy Enlistees Three well-known young men of Anaheim were among the new recruits from Orange county whose names were just released by Los Angeles Navy officials; the latest enlistees for service with the U.S. Navy.

Deming Tilton, consultant of the San Francisco Planning commission and former consultant to Orange County Planning commission, acted as chairman for the preliminary program. Jules W. Markel of Santa Ana, representing the County Planning commission, keynoted the convention opening with his inspiring talk relative to the present outlook in planning. He contrasted the situation with that prevailing when he took office, prior to Pearl Harbor. Markel, who tendered greetings from the Orange county delegation, presided over the branch of the conclave devoted to County Planning Commissioners' association, of which he is president.

I'm glad you inquired about my birthday. Yes, I'm 73 years young—and getting stronger and younger every day. Doesn't seem possible you say? Well, my friend, I can tell you plenty about what Anaheim was lige 73 years ago when I was just a mere broth of a boy, starting out with my very first paper. Anaheim wasn't much of a city in those days, just a village of homes and a small business district. But it had the same spirit that it has today—that of living up to its name, "Anaheim, City of Homes." Somehow I don't note many changes in names of folks. They're all about the same that I used to talk about in my early papers. Maybe you're all just grandsons and granddaughters, but you're the same families you know. National conditions seem familiar too. These war clouds that surround us don't seem much darker to me than those that were just fading over the horizon when I came along. That was the War Between the States you know—a pretty tragic time then just as war is tragic now. It was all over before my time of course, but we knew all about the trials of the reconstruction period that still lies ahead for us at present. tainly seen lots of changes in our state and in our county too. California was only 19 years old then—hardly ol denough to vote, eh? And as for Orange county—well it just wasn't. It was Los Angeles county. I like to remember how exciting it was back in 1889 when Orange county was formed. It was a windy day in March I recollect. March 11 in fact. Well that was a good wind for us, wasn't it? Yes, lots of changes. Some of them bad, some of them good. But that's life you know. And mark my words friends, there is lots of good ahead of us. What with living here in the very garden spot of the world, with the mountains on one side of us and the sea on the other, we have just about all that mortal man could ask, haven't we? And what if I am starting on my 73rd year? Why that's nothing. I am just in the prime of life. Of course I'll be with you through the years to come, just as I've been with you through those that have passed. I'll rejoice with you when the young folks go away to college, and when that pretty daughter of yours dons her orange blossoms to wed the son of your close neighbor. I'll be glad at every new arrival in your homes—and don't forget, I'll be ready to grieve with you when death slips C. of C.

Ho hum! Booklets Descrip Plan Made For Hallowe'en Fro Blood Donors Give Ten Gallons Of Precious Fluid Proving that Anaheim’s heart is in the right place, and that it beats steadily away at pumping its life blood for the boys in service, exactly 80 patriotic citizens appeared Saturday at Ebell clubhouse, to donate a pint of blood each, to the mobile unit of the Red Cross blood plasma bank, on its periodic visit to this city. Eighty pints of blood. Forty quarts, or exactly ten gallons of the fluid of life! That is a record of which the city may well be proud, just as it may be proud of the fact that it still heads the list of Orange county cities meeting and surpassing the quota of blood asked. Six of Saturday's 80 donors were “banking” for the third time, and received the little silver pin with which the Red Cross recognizes the generosity of these three-time donors. They were two young women, eager to help the lads overseas, the Misses Jean Young and Dorothy Neal; Mrs. Theo A. Barth and Mrs. E. C. Guthrie, both of whom have lived in Anaheim for many years, and two of city’s equally well known business men, Assistant Postmaster Elden R. Deering and Oscar N. Brower. Anaheim Merchants Observe Second “Appreciation Day” Interest in the second event in National conditions seem familiar too. These war clouds that surround us don't seem much darker to me than those that were just fading over the horizon when I came along. That was the War Between the States you know—a pretty tragic time then just as war is tragic now. It was all over before my time of course, but we knew all about the trials of the reconstruction period that still lies ahead for us at present. Know who was president then? Why it was General Ulysses S. Grant. We always liked to think of him as General Uncle Sam Grant. On account of his initials you know. Guess you're right.

These Appreciation Days are not to be confused with sales events, according to John M. Johnston, secretary of Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, originator of the plan locally. It is the purpose of local merchants to express their appreciation of patronage, by awarding gifts to those who have made purchases at local stores during the time since the plan was put into effect. Each Appreciation Day event is staged in some designated section of the city. Last Thursday it was held at the corner of Chartres and North Los Angeles streets, and Mrs. Fred Fredrickson, 123 South West streetet, won the day's major gift, $35 in cash.
