War Dept. Issues List of Taboos In Conversation
"If in doubt, don't say it!"
That's the safest way to avoid revealing military information to the enemy, official sources disclose. Such universally-known slogans as "Zip Your Lip" and "Keep Mum, Chum" are being drilled into GI minds for the protection of fellow servicemen.
Keep that yap closed at all times on these topics, taken from a War department training circular, "Safeguarding Military Information—Guide for Conversation:"
1. Troops: location (except in training and on police duty); movements—where, when, or how made; equipment or weapons; concentration or special training of units.
2. Harbors, Ships, and Cargoes: locations, destination, or cargoes of United States, Allied, or neutral vessels; transports, convoys, harbor defenses, mine fields; ship construction or proposed launches; condition and set-up of shipyards; sinkings of or damages to vessels until officially announced.
3. Damage: any information resulting from enemy action.
4. Airplanes: plant production; number in any military unit; location, destination, or time of departure of air units; troop movements or war material shipped by air; characteristics and limitations; development or experiment; name, plans, or orders of a member of the Air Transport Command.
5. Fortifications and Antiaircraft installations: location or description; location of bomb shelters or camouflaged objects or other defense precautions; any informa-
Action Taken By Independent Banks On Committees
A resolution urging Congress to enact legislation prohibiting governmental bureaus and agencies from making agricultural loans out of public funds in competition with established commercial banks has been adopted by the Independent Bankers association for the Twelfth Federal Reserve District, according to announcement made by Wilson Phelps of the Southern County bank, which is a member of the Independent Bankers association of Southern California.
Copies of the resolution have been forwarded to Vice President Henry A. Wallace and to Senators Harry P. Byrd and Kenneth S. Wherry, members of a senate committee now investigating the whole subject of socialized credit, Mr. Phelps stated.
The resolution names specifically the Regional Agricultural Credit Corporation and Production Credit Associations as Federal agencies carrying on such activities. It points out that these agencies operate tax free and make loans out of funds advanced directly or indirectly by the United States Treasury. Commercial banks, it states, have ample funds available for all legitimate loans to farm owners, tenants and operators and are willing and anxious to make such loans, but are unable to obtain this business by reason of the unfair competition of these bureaus.

Outfall Engineer Sees Potential Health Problems
Indicating the thoroughness with which he is assuming his responsibilities as maintenance engineer for Orange county's joint outfall sewer system, Ewald M. Lemcke has warned of serious sanitation problems that may develop unless measures are taken to enlarge sewage treatment plant facilities.
Lemcke has addressed a request to U. S. Army Engineer Corps that action be speeded up in its approval of its part of the contract for doubling the capacity of the plant with Army funds. The Army's offer to invest a minimum of $40,000 in the system for the handling of increased sewage, was approved last December by the various cities and districts comprising the system. Up to the present date, the Army has failed to approve its own offered contract.
Lemcke declared that recent tests made by him, have shown that lines are becoming clogged because of the heavy demands on their capacity made by military establishments. He pointed out that the flow produced by Santa Ana Army Air Base alone has more than quadrupled that contracted for by the base when it was first established.
The sewage treatment plan built by city and sanitary district owning the outfall system, is inadequate to handle these increased demands he declared, pointing out that the capacity must be doubled without further delay. Establishment of various factories has further complicated the situation. Engineer Lemcke stated
4. Airplanes: plant production; number in any military unit; location, destination, or time of departure of air units; troop movements or war material shipped by air; characteristics and limitations; development or experiment; name, plans, or orders of a member of the Air Transport Command.
5. Fortifications and Antiaircraft installations: location or description; location of bomb shelters or camouflaged objects or other defense precautions; any information of our installations outside the United States.
6. Production: don't give out any private or personal information about weather conditions other than that appearing in your local papers.
7. Weather: don't pass on information about weather appearing in your local papers.
8. Rumors and Harmful Stories: don't repeat any which stir up racial feeling or are inimical to our friendship with or are in criticism of our allies, or of enemy prowess or of our own shortcomings, or of any equipment shortage or quality. Challenge all rumors.
First Run Pictures For Army Hospitals
Hollywood first-run pictures are being brought to the bedside of patients in U.S. Army hospitals in a new program introduced by the American Red Cross.
Part of the Red Cross hospital motion-picture service, this new project will, for the first time, bring 16-millimeter first-run movies to bed-patient audiences in military hospitals on a nationwide scale. The Red Cross now operates the third largest motion-picture chain in the United States. It is estimated that before the end of this year, the hospital-ward circuits will cover more than 350 hospitals.

Two Little Sisters Claimed By Death
Sorrow entered the little home of Mr. and Mrs. Lupe Requejo of Stanton, twice within a brief three days, when death claimed two little children. Last Wednesday, their nine-months-old baby Rebecca, died of pneumonia following an attack of whooping cough. On Saturday, her sister Evelyn, almost two years old died in a Los Angeles hospital from what was believed to be the same cause. However an autopsy was held to determine if there were other contributory causes.
Services for the two tiny sisters were held in the Hilgenfeld chapel Monday night and again Tuesday morning, with the Rev Antonio Ayala officiating each time. Burial was made in Westminster Memorial Park. The little sisters are mourned by their parents and by two half-brothers Arnold and Albert Hernandez, sister and a brother, Irene and Lupe Requejo Jr.

"I RISE TO REMARK"
By CONGRESSMAN JOHN PHILLIPS
The Smithsonian Institute is not generally accused of deliberate humor, but the current catalog of government publications lists, for that Institute, a booklet on "Coleoptera" (beetles to you) and next on the list a booklet on "Japanese." Apparently the Japs are Insects at the Smithsonian, and right so, I'd say.
There are two hot issues before us now, both of which I should rise to remark about in this column. One is the pay-as-you-go plan of taxation, sometimes called the Ruml-plan, sometimes other things less printable. It is very complicated, and emphasizes additions to its own territory for protection, or for commercial advantage. The situation here is complicated at the moment by the fact that a prominent and world-travelled Republican, reading the Senate resolution, hastily jumped on theeb andwagon, so that the resolution's opponents now charge him with initiating it.

Last Wednesday nine-months-old baby, died of pneumonia following an attack of whooping cough on Saturday, her sister almost two years old, in Los Angeles hospital that was believed to be the cause.

The most interesting news at the moment is about the start of an effort to crystallize the feeling of the people on post war agreements. Four Senators introduced a resolution; twenty-six of the new Republicans fresh from contacts with their people, say, in much more dignified language, 'Go to if gentlemen, we're with you!' How many people in the United States today, really know what is meant by the "Atlantic Charter" or by the trade treaties or the Four Freedoms or the post-war agreements, already being made among the nations of this world? Is the United States to be greeted, as it has after other wars, with the familiar greeting of Tex Guinan in her night club; "Hello, sucker!" These 26 men and women, and I'm one of them, want to know now what this victory will bring the world and what it will bring the United States; we want to know if we are to have some post-war fanciful world order, or a post-war practical police to handle international gangsters, just as we handle local gangsters in the self-respecting communities. I want a booklet on "Coleoptera" (beetles to you) and next on the list a booklet on "Japanese." Apparently the Japs are insects at the Smithsonian, and rightly so, I'd say.
There are two hot issues before us now, both of which I should rise to remark about in this column. One is the pay-as-you-go plan of taxation, sometimes called the Ruml plan, sometimes other things less printable. It is very complicated, and emphasizes more than ever the problem before any legislator, state or national. The people at home talk and write about theories and plans, but we vote on the actual bills before us. Sometimes these bills are different from the theories, and the legislator must therefore choose the bill which most nearly approaches the theory he supports or the plan in which his people believe.
This is the Ruml plan situation. We have two main bills and many amendments. I shall vote for a pay-as-you-go plan; I shall vote for the best amendment to prevent creating wealth in war-time; I shall vote to impose the least burden on the smaller taxpayers, and then on the final vote I shall vote for the bill which, after the verbal battles are over, best approaches these ends.

Even in the heat of war, and with the nations at grips with the enemy, some of the nations are making treaties among themselves, and more than one nation is openly or quietly looking to farm implements to the value of more than $250,000 are thus left unused and rapidly deteriorating. Baker declared that the farming situation in the county may become acute in the event of continued dearth of badly-needed machinery and that distribution of the Japanese-owned implements would go far toward helping solve such problems.
Gas Tax Returns
Show Drop Of Only 30 Per Cent
California's gasoline tax may not decline more than an average of 30 per cent as a result of the rationing program according to announcement made by R. E. Collins, chairman of the State Board of Equalization.
The February tax of $3,268,-775, just assessed by the board was 26 per cent under the $4,428,-150 tax for the same month last year. Contrasting this percentage with comparable figures during the first two months of rationing, Collins pointed out that the corresponding drop in January was 34 per cent and in December, 40 per cent.
“This trend indicates that California gasoline taxes may still produce at least two-thirds of their normal revenue in spite of rationing,” Collins said. He observed that in other states where rationing has been in effect for longer periods, the yield has, in some instances, been cut to 60 per cent of normal.
Collins attributes the comparative improvement in the California gasoline tax yield to extensive use of local highways by commercial transport facilities rather than to operation of passenger cars.

April 4, 1918
One of the biggest real estate deals pulled off in Anaheim for many a day was consummated last week when papers were signed transferring the Deutsch tract to Theodore Roberts of this city and J. M. Kransnek of Long Beach. The property extends from Lemon to Palm streets and from Center to Chartres and the consideration, it is said, was $100,000. This property has been in the possession of Herman Deutsch for many years and has grown in value as the city advanced. The metropolitan block is the only building on it, except the Pinal Dome service station on the corner. It is the intention of the new owners to erect a business block on the corner where the service station now stands. The new building will have a 75-foot frontage on Center street and a depth of 88 feet on Lemon. It will contain three large store rooms. Building will begin as soon as the architect completes the plans.
Bud Sackett and Chas. Koehler went down to Seal Beach Friday night and created havoc among the sportive grunion that were parading on the sands in large numbers that night. Several other fishermen who expected to accompany them refused to go because the moon signs were not right, but Sackett and Koehler brought home a gunny sack full of the appetising little fish, which they distributed among their friends.
50 Years Ago
April 6, 1893
The first installment of the Southern California World's Fair exhibits left for Chicago on Saturday—one carload from San Diego containing 27,000 pounds, one from this county containing 35,000, two from Ventura containing 36,000 pounds, one from San Bernardino containing 20,000 pounds and three from Los Angeles containing 70,000 pounds. The exhibits consisted of the unperishable displays and many of the decorative features. Santa Barbara's exhibit consisting of one carload, left on Tuesday. This makes a total number of nine cars of exhibits from the six southern counties with twenty more to follow within the next month.
Orange shipments are going ahead very fast now. Several dozen carloads have gone out of this section, and over twelve hundred carloads have left southern California since January first. Before May fully 3,000 more carloads will have gone. Navels comprise almost all the shipments of oranges now, because they must be rushed to market as soon as they are ripe. Owners of old-fashioned seedlings and Mediterranean sweet orange orchards are shipping just as little fruit as possible. They will be able to keep their crops on the trees for two months more and they believe that when the World's Fair opens the prices will be the best in several years. A peculiar feature of the orange shipments this season is that eleven out of twelve

She writes “Christian scientific practise begins with Jesus' keynote of harmony, ‘Be afraid!’ . . .

It was somewhat of a surprise to the trustees and spectators at the city council meeting Thursday night when Engineer O. E. Steward said that the German-American Bank building extended one foot over the street line on Los Angeles street. The building belonging to J. D. Heitshusen further north, also encroaches a foot over on the street line. This was discovered several years ago when the Carroll building was erected. That structure has been built upon the correct survey line. The trustees have the power to narrow the street in that block but it is doubtful if they will do so, as the tendency here is to widen the streets, especially in the downtown district, rather than reduce them.
