When I was a boy, there used to be a game in which we got someone to stand on a doorstep while we rang the bell and then ran. Perhaps there is a suggestion of this in the thought that the President himself read the message in which he spoke of our increases in production, and our assistance to our allies in the war, while he left a secretary and the House clerk standing on the doorstep with the message which called for expenditures of more than 100 BILLIONS in the 1943 budget, and the announcement that this has risen from 2 BILLIONS a month for war purposes, just before Pearl Harbor, to 6 BILLIONS at the present time, and will reach 8 BILLIONS by the end of the year. This is for war purposes alone, and is the MONTHLY cost. I well recall the furor when the first budget was proposed for the United States which reached ONE BILLION a year. There is no thought on my part to object to war expenditures. I have discussed this point in previous pages then the actual valuation for the country is around 600 BILLIONS, and ONE HUNDRED BILLIONS is pretty big by comparison. So we come back to what seem to be the important things before Congress, and these I listed in last week's letter; the war, the peace, cutting expenses wherever possible, the elimination of duplicating and unnecessary agencies, and the return of its Constitutional authority and integrity to Congress. The Republicans wouldn't have to take any time talking about these things on the floor. The Democrats are doing the kind of talking I expected this side of the house to have to do. Would it be too much to suggest that more than one member of the Democratic Party, like any good boy scout, has stuck a wet finger up into the breeze, and had found the wind blowing from and change direction? Understand me, I didn't say the Republicans weren't talking; I only said they wouldn't need to talk. The only quiet ones, on each side, are the new members and they, like the younger members of any family, are best seen and not yet heard. LIONS a month for war purposes, just before Pearl Harbor, to 6 BILLIONS at the present time, and will reach 8 BILLIONS by the end of the year. This is for war purposes alone, and is the MONTHLY cost. I well recall the furor when the first budget was proposed for the United States which reached ONE BILLION a year. There is no thought on my part to object to war expenditures. I have discussed this point in previous columns. If we must have luxuries, we must pay for them, and while wars may not be desirable nor desired luxuries, never-the less they are in the luxury class. Wars are expensive; they take the best of everything we have; they last, in fact or in "hang-overs," for generations—they are wasteful, and criminal. But we are in a war, and this is a war where we have no choice. We are not defending any theory, and the sooner we think of it this way, the better. There is nothing academic about this war. This is the first act in a war of survival, between the white and the oriental races, and we are fighting with one nation, Japan, who threw the rule book before she hit us at Pearl Harbor. But, in the face of this budget, it is well to set up a comparison. ONE HUNDRED BILLIONS used to be a lot of money. Today it is casually bandied from lip to lip like the "bird" in a game of Badminton. I rise to remark that it may not be considered so casually. I'll tell you why. I do not have the figures here, as I write this, but my memory is that the total assessed valuation of all real property in the United States is in the neighborhood of 338 BILLIONS. Some reader can check me on this. If that is correct, and if the average assessment percentage is about 57 per cent, State CC Names Asst. Manager Appointment of Robert S. Hartman, general manager of Inglewood Chamber of Commerce, to the office of assistant manager of the Southern district California Chamber of Commerce, has been announced by James Mussatti, general manager of the state organization. Hartman, former promotion manager for American Brass company, Cleveland, Ohio, was at one time associate editor of the Amer- Death Summons Mrs. V. W. Shore The passing on Tuesday morning in Tulare of Mrs. V. W. Shore at the age of 80, will be of much interest in this community. For Mrs. Shore came to Garden Grove from her native state of Iowa, in 1836 and lived there until moving to Tulare some 30 years ago. Following quiet services held this morning in Tulare, her remains were to be brought here for final rites to be held tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock in Westminster church. Dr. Thomas Holmes Walker, former pastor of First Presbyterian church, will conduct services, and Winifred Beebe Sloop will sing. Burial will be in the family plot at Westminister by the side of her husband, the late V. W. Shore whose death 10 years ago occurred on their wedding anniversary, February 5. Mrs. Shore is survived by four sons and two daughters. One son, Guy N. Shore, lives at 723 North Philadelphia street, and one daughter, Mrs. Roy A. Knapp, on East Anaheim road. The others are Mrs. Kathryn Boysen and Glen Shore, both of Tulare; Ralph L. Shore of Tipton, Calif., and Carl V. Shore of Coquille, Ore. She also left 16 grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. Tomato Growers Discuss Switch To Other Crops Possibility that farm labor shortages and conditions will cause Orange county tomato growers to substitute other equally essential crops requiring fewer man hours, was indicated Tuesday than one member of the Democratic Party, like any good boy scout, has stuck a wet finger up into the breeze, and had found the wind blowing from and change direction? Understand me, I didn't say the Republicans weren't talking; I only said they wouldn't need to talk. The only quiet ones, on each side, are the new members and they, like the younger members of any family, are best seen and not yet heard. JAMES B. WILKIE, 82, a former resident of Anaheim who has been making his home in recent years in Whittier, died recently in that city where funeral services were followed by burial in Whitier cemetery. Among surviving California relatives were his sister, Mrs. Catharine B. Richardson of Santa Ana and four nieces, Mrs. Kate Reed of this city, Mrs. Earl R. Abbey of Santa Ana, Mrs. William T. Walpole of Placentia and Mrs. Stanley R. Lewis of Pasadena. MRS.

Burial willed made in Anaheim cemetery. Mrs. Criss was survived by her daughter and two sons, Mr James A. Correll of Texas, Frank A. Criss of Washington, and Charles A. Criss of Anaheim. Other close relatives include two grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, a sister, Miss Sarah Appointment of Robert S. Hartman, general manager of Inglewood Chamber of Commerce, to the office of assistant manager of the Southern district California Chamber of Commerce, has been announced by James Mussatti, general manager of the state organization. Hartman, former promotion manager for American Brass company, Cleveland, Ohio, was at one time associate editor of the American Traveler Publishing company of Indianapolis. He has been with the Inglewood Chamber as assistant manager for the past eight years, and will assume his duties with the state chamber on February 15. Tomato Growers Discuss Switch To Other Crops Possibility that farm labor shortages and conditions will cause Orange county tomato growers to substitute other equally essential crops requiring fewer man hours, was indicated Tuesday night when tomato growers convened in Garden Grove high school at the call of the county farm bureau. Cecil J. Marks, executive secretary, expressed the hope that approach of the planting season would see a renewed interest among tomato growers. He was in Los Angeles last night, at a meeting of Los Angeles county farm bureau, at which other counties sent representatives to discuss the tomato situation as to prices and production possibilities.

Funeral services were conducted at o'clock Wednesday evening in Hilgenfeld chapel by the Rev. E. Eifert of Zion Lutheran church. The point behind point rationing... He's in a field hospital. He's wounded. But he's already begging to be sent back to the front lines. Soldiers are like that. He will get there, too. Because he's getting the best of medical care, and the finest food in the world. He's one of our boys! No American minds giving part of what he has, to strengthen the men who are fighting and dying to preserve this country for all of us. In ever increasing numbers our soldiers are marching to more and more battlefronts as war spreads across the world. The war will have to be won on those battlefronts. It will have to be won where the boys are fighting—on the sea, in the air, and on the land. It can't be won anywhere else. But whatever the courage, whatever the heroism of these boys—we must work tirelessly here at home. Our part of the job is to keep them supplied with the materials of war: Guns, ammunition—food! Soldiers must have food. Good, nourishing food, to give them fighting strength and vigor. And to build morale. That's our job! It's up to us to get along on less so that they can have more. So they can have the food they need on long, gruelling marches—marches through the heat and dust of the desert and across the cold, bleak wastes of the North country. Food to sustain them through hours of darkness and cold on a life raft or tough days in the wards of the field hospitals. That’s why we're setting up a system called “point Little of Everything WEEK-END GUESTS Mr. and Mrs. "Bud" Caldwell, 908½ East Center street, had as guests over the week-end, Mrs. Caldwell's parents and sister, the E.

It was especially interesting to the senior Mr. Ridgeway, as it was his first visit to the famous eating place. ILLINOIS PICNIC Former residents of the 102 counties of Illinois will hold their winter picnic reunion all day Saturday in Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles, according to announcement of Attorney Lin Price, president.
