Son of Former Anaheim Residents
(Continued from Page 1)
His achievement is making a 100 per cent rating stands almost unparalleled, and was recognized by Washington officials, who telegraphed his parents, offering congratulations upon their 100 per cent son!
He was immediately dispatched to the advanced school in New London, Conn., where he maintained the same high standards, with the result that the latest honor accorded him, was his selection as Diesel engineer on the government's first Diessel-engined boat launched recently at Houston, Texas, and said to be the fastest thing in the water today.
Four officers and 20 seamen man this craft, all selected for their high rating from among 22,000 candidates! The young engineer has 10 men under his command. Where the boat will be stationed, and what its duties will be, remains a military secret.
The Bustamantes were well known in this city prior to their moving to Los Angeles a quarter century ago. The family was prominent in early history of California, and E. E. Bustamante's grandfather, Don Francisco Bustamante, who came to Los Angeles in 1845, was that city's first school teacher and its first physician. He used to make his professional calls on horseback, making periodical rounds from Red Bluff in the north to Ensenada in the south. The family rancho stretched for many miles, and part of it was where the city of Merced now lies. Merced was named for Don Francisco's eldest daughter, Senorita Mercedes Bustamante, an aunt of the former Anaheimer.
The E. E. Bustamantes have Navy turns over midget undersea craft (pictured above at left, as it was captured on fateful December 7, 1941, at Pearl Harbor) to Treasury Department to promote sale of War Bonds in hundreds of cities from coast-to-coast. It rection of our War of a Tokio war story of how these been cut in its sides and walkways installed to give the public a good view of the deadly craft.
The undersea craft went aground on Oahu Island after it had vainly fired one torpedo at an American cruiser. The commander was seized as he attempted to swim to safety. The other member of the crew drowned.
The "Tojo Cigar" was still carrying the two 18-foot torpedoes when captured. It had a cruising range of only 200 miles. Its construction indicated it was truly a suicide ship. Launched overseas from the deck of a large ship by cranes, it was never expected to return to the mother vessel.
The midget submarine is 41 feet long, has a beam of 5 feet, and
les in 1845, was that city's first school teacher and its first physician. He used to make his professional calls on horseback, making periodical rounds from Red Bluff in the north to Ensenada in the south. The family rancho stretched for many miles, and part of it was where the city of Merced now lies. Merced was named for Don Francisco's eldest daughter, Senorita Mercedes Bustamante, an aunt of the former Anaheimer.
The E. E. Bustamantes have four other children, Manuel, formerly in the L. A. county auditor's office and now a member of the Los Angeles police force; Edward, an instructor at the shipyard, engaged like his father in defense; Mrs. Robert (Martha) Espinosa, and little Miss Mary Carmen of the home.

of school children's participation.
Truly amazing was the collection of articles piled high on trucks provided by the city, by Chairman Ardaiz, Home Oil company, Anaheim Truck and Transfer, Smith-Reafsnyder Furniture company, Al DeWitt’s Service station, the Silzle corporation, M. Eltiste company, C. A. Knapp Service station, Cone Brothers, Ernest Ganahl Lumber company, R. DeLeon, Sprayers, Ernest Wheaton, and many others.
Many of these trucks drew trailers and in several cases towed ancient automobiles destined for the salvage piles. School children hauled small wagons and carts of every description laden with salvage, or piled it high in baskets on their bicycles.
Ranchers of the entire area offered full cooperation under chairmanship of W. T. Wallop and E. L. Hackley, and sent their ranch trucks filled to overflowing to join in the general expression of "Slap the Jap with our scrap." It was estimated that more than 200 tons of salvage rewarded the civic effort.
In every respect it was a day of enterprise of which the community may well be proud, and stands

“Be sure to address letters and parcels properly” admonished Postmaster Hoskins. “We can’t disappoint our thousands of soldiers, sailors and marines to say nothing of our civilian friends. But our Post Office department cannot do the gigantic task alone. We must have the assistance of everyone.”
At present, Hoskins sees no immediate necessity of keeping the local postoffice open on Saturday afternoons. However the usual custom of keeping open until 6 p.m. on two Saturdays immediately preceding Christmas, will be maintained.
as a tribute to the men who planned it and who worked indeefatigably to make it a success.
Culminating the day's celebration was the bond and stamp sale held last night at the Elks club followed by an entertainment program to which all north Orange county Veterans and service men were invited.
Other county observances of the day included that in Orange which was this year's host city for the annual county-wide celebration, but which dispensed with the customary parade; Santa Ana where a bond auction was held on the courthouse lawn with film and radio stars present; dedication of Irvine bowl at Laguna Beach, and a plaque unveiling at Huntington Beach.

OCD Advises On Correct Procedure In Event of Unexploded Bombs
“The Unexploded Bomb” is the subject of special art sent out from Ninth Region Office of Civilian Defense headquarters, and information conveyed in these articles will of value to every householder in the Anaheim area.
“Tonight, tomorrow or any time in the near future, your city and your homes may be bombed” the articles point out. “When enemy planes fly over, you may expect to hear the crash of high explosive bombs and see fires started by incendiaries.
“But do you know that after such enemy planes have been shot down or have flown away, the raid dangers will continue for hours or even days? The bomb dropped today may not explode until next week. These are the so-called UXB’s, the unexploded bombs, perhaps the most devastating and dangerous of all the weapons of warfare.”
OCD headquarters continue with information regarding the ways in which these UXB’s may be used by the enemy. They are divided into two types, time bombs which are set to explode hours or even days after plowing deep into the ground, or bombs in which the detonating device has failed to work. Sometimes such bombs are placed by enemy agents at points calculated for doing the most harm. One may be dropped in a railway switch yard or in the midst of a factory working on war production.
Emphasis is placed on the necessity of ceasing all activity in such areas until the bomb has been rendered harmless and removed. If in residential areas, these must be evacuated until the same precautions are taken.
Frequently the UXB will bury itself from 15 to 60 feet deep in your Air Raid Warden, withplicit directions as to location him take care of details of lection.
“If you follow these simple instructions you will be safe guard yourself and your life—and you will be helping win the war.”

Charmingly planned in a hospitable details was the lure con held today in the Wichumacher home on Dale complimenting sustaining members of Anaheim Assis League.
Mrs. Schumacher, Mrs. V. Borden, Mrs. George Holden, A. B. Wilmsen and Mrs. C. Neighbors formed the actual less group, receiving approximately half a hundred guests flower-garlanded home.

State DAR Leaders Make Official Visits
Of much interest to Anaheim chapter DAR of which Mrs. Albert Karlen is regent, is the round of official visits to Southland chapters now being made by Mrs. Frank E. Lee of Santa Monica, state regent and Mrs. Charles F. Lambert of Berkeley, state vice-regent.
Tomorrow the two officers are being complimented by Orange county chapters at a luncheon to be held in Daniger’s cafe, Santa Ana. On Tuesday, November 17, Mrs. Lee will preside at the meeting of Southern Council of the State society DAR, to be held in Alexandria Hotel, Los Angeles.
In addition to various committee reports, a parliamentary law class, discussion of conservation and salvage plans, members will share a fine afternoon program with Dr. F. W. Went as guest speaker.
Dr. Went is a member of the staff at California Institute of Technology, and will be introduced by Mrs. Edith Shepherd Reynolds of Pasadena, chairman of the committee on national defense through education. “The Dutch Indies in Pre- and Post-War Days” will be the subject of the address to be given by the distinguished educator, who is a native of Holland, a former instructor in University of Utrecht, and has made an exhaustive study of the Holland Empire and its colonial policies.
Emphasis is placed on the necessity of ceasing all activity in such areas until the bomb has been rendered harmless and removed. If in residential areas, these must be evacuated until the same precautions are taken.
Frequently the UXB will bury itself from 15 to 60 feet deep in the ground. Indications of its passage will be found easily and must be reported immediately to an air raid warden. Wardens have been instructed to call the control center of Civilian Defense council immediately, and the latter will send a bomb reconnaissance agent to make a thorough investigation.
Such bomb reconnaissance agents have been carefully chosen by all Civilian Defense councils, and given special training courses by the U.S. Army to fit them for their duties. When UXB’s are located the agents will instruct Air Raid Wardens to evacuate all residents from the area; auxiliary police will rope off the section and police the neighborhood to protect property and possessions; the nearest OCD headquarters will be notified, and will call for expert assistance of the Bomb Disposal unit of Western Defense Command and Fourth Army.
Stressing the need of cooperation on the part of individuals, the articles state “Every citizen has the responsibility to know what to do, and to do it when the moment for action arrives. Complete cooperation with your Air Raid Warden is essential. He has been selected and trained to perform definite duties for your protection and safety.
“After a bombing, many articles strange to you, may be found near your home, pieces of shrapnel, unexploded anti-aircraft shells, pieces of incendiary bombs, flares or parachute mine caps. Don't let your collector's instinct get the best of you. Any one of them might explode the instant you pick it up for a mantlepiece decoration. There are two rules to follow, (1) leave them alone, and (2) inform utilized for serving the luncheon menu. This was followed by enjoyable musical interval led by Mrs. Borden. Mrs. Dana Newkirk of Fullerton was artist, and played a group of numbers in her usual bristle style. Many of these were the group which she will next Thursday evening in Fort library, as one of the feation of that city's observance of national Library week.
Mrs. H. D. Newkirk of this and her daughter-in-law, Dana Newkirk, form a gifted ternation duo, and have many recitals before difficult county groups, which have all been received with enthusiasm. In the library program, Mrs. Newkirk will play three grilling representing classic, romantic modern composers.
The senior Mrs. Newkirk round out the program with informal discussion of the personalities of the composers resented. Assistance League tesses had hoped that today’s gram might be a similar one. Mrs. H. D. Newkirk, member of the organization asked that confined to the music alone.

Advise Given On Air Mail Postage
Attention has been called by Postmaster L. H. Hoskins, to the general misunderstanding that seems to prevail regarding postal rates on letters dispatched by air mail to men in the armed forces overseas.
Air mail postage is six cents for each half ounce, but a large volume of such mail is being prepaid at the rate of six cents an ounce, the public seeming to be confused on the matter. In addition to the work that such widespread mistakes place on the service, which has to see to the rating and collect the postage due, it slows delivery of the mail to a marked extent.
It must be remembered however, that the six cents per half ounce is the rate on airmail going outside the continental United States. Postmaster Hoskins pointed out that airmail addressed to a member of the armed forces in care of the postmaster at San Francisco, Calif.; at New York City, N. Y.; New Orleans, La.; Miami, Fla., or Presque Isle, Maine, must always be prepaid at the rate of six cents per half ounce. Air mail addressed to a member of the armed forces in care of the postmaster at Seattle, Wash., should be prepaid at the rate of six cents an ounce.
Venturans Arrive For Week’s Visit
Guests this week in the home of Mrs. Maddie Gates, 220 North Claudina street, are her son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. William Schumacher of Ventura. They are enjoying a varied round of affairs including a venison dinner with Los Angeles friends, a deep-sea fishing trip with friends from Long Beach, and a renewal of associations of Mr. Schumacher’s boyhood.
Born and reared in Anaheim, he has been established for nearly 25 years in the bakery business in Ventura, with some 15 men in his employ. The difficulty of getting labor now, coupled with his own prospects for being called to service soon, led to his closing up his business last week.
Schumacher brought information regarding another former Anaheimer, Rudy Gerkin, has been living near Ventura for a number of years. He explained that Gerkin recently enlisted in the U. S. Navy.
