CASEY, Prof. of Journalism, U. of Oklahoma The greatest newspaper in North America is not published in New York City. Chicago has none that compares with it. The larger cities of the Middle West, the Atlantic Seaboard, or even the Pacific Coast know it not. Even Canada's greatest metropolises from coast to coast... Halifax, Quebec, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver... none of these can beat it. Washington, D.C.? Not even Washington in war time. For the greatest newspaper in North America wields ten times the influence, is read by one hundred times more readers, carries inestimably more pages of advertising and wartime information than any newspaper in any great city in this great continent of ours. The greatest newspaper in North America gets closer to its readers, is read longer, believed in more confidentially, determines the outcome of more elections, exerts a greater power for sane thinking, sells more merchandise, rights more wrongs... than any metropolitan daily ever published.

He is, nevertheless, a fighter for freedom, for he and thousands of Edison employees keep flowing night and day the electric power which is the life-blood of our war industries. Edison was ready when Southern California industry began its important part in the war production. Only the American Way could have anticipated and organized for such a need as Southern California now serves. Rubber Director Suggests Program To Conserve Tires of Southland Setting forth a five-point program whereby motorists may accomplish a double purpose — save rubber and win the war—Rubber Director William M. Jeffers has appealed to all newspapers to give publicity to his program as follows: 1. Drive only when absolutely necessary; 2. Keep under 35 miles an hour; 3. Keep tires properly inflated; 4. Have tires inspected regularly; 5. Share your car with others. Anaheim drivers have anticipated the last item of Jeffers' program, by allying themselves with the state-wide "Share your car" plan, first proposed by Chamber of Commerce Secretary John M. Johnston. Police Chief J. S. Bouldin's men are carefully checking speedy drivers, in line with the principles laid down by the second suggestion, and with what county traffic officers are doing. Drivers who disregard the 35-mile limit face the danger of having their gas ration cards taken away when this state comes under NOLAN W. HARRIS, who had lived for the past two years at his ranch home on Harbor boulevard just south of this city, died Saturday afternoon at his home after a long illness. Funeral services were conducted Tuesday afternoon from the Hilgenfeld mortuary, with the Rev. J. B. Abbott of Garden Grove Free Methodist church, officiating. Burial was in Anaheim cemetery. Born in Texas 41 years ago, Mr. Harris had lived in California for seven years. Of his immediate family circle he leaves his wife the nation-wide gas rationing plan. Pacific Coast price administration and transportation officials are working out the mechanics of a plan whereby ration books of such drivers will be placed in Uncle Sam's custody for the duration. In explaining the necessity for such stringent measures, officials pointed out that this country's greatest supply of rubber today is on the wheels of the nation's 33 million motor vehicles spinning over three million miles of highways. "Ours is the most intensively motorized nation on earth," declared Joseph B. Eastman, war-time transportation director. "Our entire economy, industry, agriculture and civilian life is geared to motor transportation." Because this is the medium that enables untold thousands of war workers to reach their jobs every day, all rubber must be conserved. WESLEY METHODIST The Rev. C. H.

(AP) — Too many people still are traveling on week-ends by bus and train. Sounding this complaint today, the office of Defense Transport said that a further shift to mid-week travel of at least 8 per cent was necessary to eliminate the peak week-end travel load. The report showed heaviest ticket sales on Saturday, when an average of 21 per cent of the week's entire sales take place. Sunday is next with 16 per cent. The Office of Defense Transportation states that week end travel must be reduced. Only so much transportation is available, and war service must come first. Transportation facilities are being stretched to the limit. New buses are difficult to obtain. Unnecessary bus service is being eliminated to meet the ever growing demands of the armed forces, war workers, and others who must travel to help win the war. Hundreds of our men, who used to serve you, are now in the military service (and we're proud of them) creating a serious shortage of trained personnel. The time has come when every American must realize that pleasure travel is a peacetime luxury. Greyhound is committed to the vital job of providing one service only—essential transportation. If You MUST Travel, Follow These Suggestions: ★ Ride on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays—leave week ends for men in uniform and war workers ★ Get tickets and information well in advance. ★ Take as little baggage as possible.
