Wives of Soldiers Entitled To Full Tax Exemption Those patriotic Anaheim wives who are working in various essential industries while their husbands serve in the nation's armed forces, will be glad to share with other women of the Southland, a clarification of the new Withholding Tax as issued this week by F. F. Fichthaler, chief of the income tax division of Southern California Revenue office. "Working wives whose husbands are in the armed forces," stated Fichthaler, "are entitled to the full exemption of $1248 annually or $24 weekly, and should mark their exemption certificates. Although the certificate stipulates that husband and wife must be living together, wives of military men are allowed the full exemption because their separation is entirely involuntary." The statement carried the additional information that all married taxpayers will still be allowed to file joint or separate income tax returns, regardless of their statements to their employers. Thus a married man who claims the full withholding exemption will still be permitted to file separate returns for himself and his wife when the proper time comes. This rule works in reverse, and a couple splitting the exemption will still be privileged to file joint income returns if they so desire.

(in charge of the several cafeterias); to install native chefs as rapidly as they can be trained. Lucheon served the guests Friday in the Fullerton camp, was exactly the same fare provided for the evening meal for the workers. It was typical Mexican fare, including frijoles cooked with bacon and liberally spiced, Spanish rice, buttered fresh asparagus, baked fresh fish with Spanish sauce, cabbage salad and relishes, french rolls with excellent butter, and watermelon for dessert. This menu was typical of that served daily in every camp, and prepared under the most sanitary and cleanly conditions. The greatest difficulty encountered so far in the matter of food, according to those in charge, has been in the noon-day lunches delivered to the fields. The American sandwich is distasteful to the Mexican palate, so the three sandwiches are discarded and the only articles they eat are apples and a generous piece of sweet bread or coffee cake. Plans are now underway to buy up wide-mouthed thermos jugs as they are released by the U.S. Army, in order to be able to deliver hot beans to the workers at noon. Kitchens, dining rooms, sleeping quarters and sanitary arrangements were carefully inspected at the camps visited Fullerton, Atwood, the Orange County Insectary in this city, and Imperial camp on the former Bastanchury ranch. In each case buildings already standing have been utilized, with the addition of showers and sanitary arrangements, kitchen equipment, etc. Double bunks introduced in sleeping quarters, have been disdained by the Nationals, so that the top bunk has been discarded generally. In Atwood, the old school building has been adjusted to meet new needs, and there the workers have set up a little chapel, which is served by a Placentia padre. The Nationals, judging from individuals which the visiting party contacted, seem to be an intelligent and orderly class as a whole, and are eager for educational facilities. Representatives of the various packing houses and growers in attendance Friday, expressed satisfaction with the manner in which the Nationals are going about the harvesting of the citrus fruits. The entire project represents a tremendous outlay by Citrus Growers, Inc. but as Manager Jack Prizer asserted, "Had the Nationals not been brought into the county we could never have harvested the crop." Forty-five packing houses are banded together in the venture, stated Jesse Medaris, who explained that arrival this week of 119 more Nationals from Imperial Valley, brought the total to 2057 now employed in the county. The largest camp is the Imperial with 500 men. Orange County Insectary has the next largest number, more than 400. Two hundred and 455 are housed at Atwood; 233 on the Irvine ranch, and 215 in Orange. Jaysee Summer Course Outlined With 23 different courses already listed on the tentative program for the twilight summer session of Santa Ana junior college to be held July 1 to August 27, registration for the session will be held in College hall next Tuesday and Wednesday from 1 to 4 and from 7 to 9 p.m. The plan to conduct evening classes in order to avoid conflict with county agricultural interests is meeting with general interest as evinced by more than 300 requests which Miss Mabel Whiting, registrar, has received for class schedules. Has received for class schedules. Needs of college students as well as of county high school students who wish to take advantage of the accelerated program, have been considered in arranging class schedules. Such classes will be held between the hours of 6 and 10 p.m. for the eight week period. In addition to both college and high school courses will be those especially designed to aid young women entering nurses' training. These will include bacteriology, physiology and anatomy. Equally valuable to young men preparing to enter the armed services will be courses in trigonometry, aeronautical mathematics, navigation Two members of La Pima school staff, Alexander Jiménez 601 East Chartres street, and Vincenta Carleton, 118 Adele street, have been hired by being named to scholarships at Claremont Colleges' summer seminar on Hemispheric Solidarity June 28 to August according to information from college office of information. Mrs. Carlleteton has not yet finitely accepted the scholarship and Jimenez has done so tentatively. He is trying to vise a plan whereby he may tend morning discussion sessions a certain number of days a week, and yet continue with work for which he had all made arrangements. For as a well-known writer among the community's American young people, he has been selected by Citrus Grie Inc. to take charge of education and recreational programs set up at once for the 2000 I can Nationals imported into county to aid in harvesting citrus crop. Since the Hemispheric Society seminar is designed to and analyze exactly such observations and problems as are with the importation of Mei labor, the Anaheim educated day declared that he felt that work would be as education would full attendance at the mer session. The two scholarships extend locally were among 25 made for potential leaders in field of inter-American relations by the office of the Co-ordination Inter-American Affairs at the Del Amo Foundation Angeles. Jimenez, who received Bachelor of Arts degree at dental college following a school work in Long Beach year completed college work dinarily done in summer vacation season, by taking special course during the school year at Whittier college extension service.

Exclusive Distributors — Anaheim, California IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Extracts from files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter ago. These files contain the only Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 25 Years Ago June 27, 1918 Marshal Wood has appointed Fred Minyard as motorcycle speed cop and he will work at stated intervals during the busy part of the day and only on certain days during the week. During this time he will be relieved as fire truck driver by an assistant. Officer Minyard was out a few day ago and ran down at least twenty drivers who were making better than 30 miles. He warned them to cut down their speed and close their mufflers. Several were summoned to show up before the judge. Some of the speeders said that in their own towns they go slow but when they get over here where they had fine paved roads and no motor cops the speed bug got them. Officer Minyard warned them to go easy as upon a second offense he would pinch them. After seven months spent on the battlefront in France, Captain Leland S. Hatfield was sent back to the United States as an instructor, and is now stationed at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. He has been given a fifteen days' leave of absence and is now visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Hatfield of Los Angeles and his brother George and numerous friends in Anaheim. Captain Hatfield was stationed at St. Mihiel,, twelve miles south of Verdun, in a region that has seen some of the most desperate fighting of the war. While there is no question in the mind of Captain Hatfield that the Boche are now being whipped, he does not look for an immediate cessation of the war, as the Kaiser will not quit as long as he has a fighting man left. 50 Years Ago June 29, 1893 The monetary situation is considerably clearer than last week. Banks are reopening throughout the country and a better feeling prevails among all business classes. The Los Angeles banks will all reopen within a few days, the First National being capitalized at a larger amount than any bank in Southern California. The Commercial bank in Santa Ana opened yesterday. The bank of Orange, we hear, will also open this morning. There is every indication that the Anaheim bank will be open Monday morning. All the heavy depositors are signing agreements to stand by the bank. Anaheim has the reputation of being a solid old town, and now is the time for the depositors' and others to prove that this is true to the outside world. At the residence of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Witte, there was solemnized yesterday morning at 10 o'clock the wedding of their daughter, Miss Jessie Witte and Mr. Horace W. Green of Victoria, British Columbia. Rev. Hill of the Presbyterian church performed the ceremony in the presence of a limited number of friends. The bride was attired in a costume of white cashmere trimmed with lace and veil, wearing myrtle. She carried a bouquet of myrtle and ferns. She was attended by her sister, Miss Hilgard wearing cream nuns veiling. The groomsman was Ralph Blair. Miss Minnie Zeyn played the wedding march. The happy couple left on the noon train for Redondo where they took the steamer for San Francisco. A few days will be Two members of La Palma School staff, Alexander Jimenez, East Chartres street, and Mrs. Agenta Carleton, 118 West Lake street, have been honored being named to scholarships Claremont Colleges' summer on seminar on Hemispheric polarity June 28 to August 7,arding to information from the large office of information. Mrs. Carlleton has not yet deeply accepted the scholarship Jimenez has done so only relatively. He is trying to develop a plan whereby he may attend morning discussion sessions certain number of days each week, and yet continue with the task for which he had already made arrangements. For as a well-known worker among the community's Latin American young people, he has been selected by Citrus Growers to take charge of educational recreational programs to be up at once for the 2000 Mexican Nationals imported into the country to aid in harvesting the bus crop. Since the Hemispheric Solidarion seminar is designed to study and analyze exactly such conditions and problems as are arising from the importation of Mexican oil, the Anaheim educator told declared that he felt that his work would be as educational as would full attendance at the summer session. The two scholarships extended really were among 25 grants made for potential leaders in the field of inter-American relations in the office of the Co-ordinator for Inter-American Affairs and the Del Amo Foundation, Los Angeles. Jimenez, who received his bachelor of Arts degree at Occidental college following high school work in Long Beach, this year completed college work orarily done in summer vacation season, by taking special courses during the school year under the littler college extension division. These classes were conducted in Santa Ana by Dr. Steven of the Whittier faculty. The Claremont seminar will run with a week's intensive concentration and numerous friends in Anaheim. Captain Hatfield was stationed at St. Mihiel., twelve miles south of Verdun, in a region that has seen some of the most desperate fighting of the war. While there is no question in the mind of Captain Hatfield that the Boche are now being whipped, he does not look for an immediate cessation of the war, as the Kaiser will not quit as long as he has a fighting man left. Mrs. Harold Wickett and small son arrived home Tuesday after having spent several months with her husband, Captain W. Harold Wickett who has been stationed at Camp Sheridan, Alabama. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Wickett, Mrs. H. A. Johnston of Anaheim and Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Chapman and son, Irving of Fullerton motored to Los Angeles to meet them. Captain Wickett has been transferred from Camp Sheridan to the evacuation hospital at New York and has been promoted to assistant to the chief surgeon. Saturday's casualty list brought the news to Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Christensen of Holt avenue Tustin that their son, Cpl. George G., had died of wounds received in action while fighting with the U.S. Marine corps in France. The young man would have been 25 years old on July 20, and had served in the Marine corps nearly six years. So far as known he is the first Orange county man to make the big sacrifice in actual combat with the Hun in France. The continued prevalence of high wool and meat values has placed the sheep business in a new light. The rresult will be that this phase of animal industry will contribute materially to the nation's food and clothing supply. It will also add stability to our system of farming and play an important part in the more complete utilization of our agricultural resources.
