Plane Crash Takes Lives of Four; Injures Many Sun.
(Continued from page 1)
the sea flying at so low an altitude that all feared danger.
Almost before they were aware of it, she stated, they were bathed in fire and thrown to the ground by the explosion as showers of fragments fell about them. Her father got to his feet almost immediately, and although burned about the face and neck, ran to the wreckage to ascertain if the pilot were trapped within it. Finding no pilot he saw the group of children in the water and succeeded in drawing one little body to shore when other help arrived. It developed that this was one of the pitiful casualties although Mr. Porter does not know which one.
Huntington Beach life guards were on the scene almost immediately to render first aid and mounted Coast Guardsmen aided in controlling the crowds that gathered.
It developed that Flight Officer G. R. Fair was piloting the P-38 during target practice in which several planes were engaged. Witnesses said that a sheet of flame spurted from the plane followed by heavy smoke. The pilot evi dently headed the plane out to sea and then landed by parachute in a bean field a quarter mile distant. Apparently the plane was caught in air currents and headed back to shore then turned again to the sea when the crash occurred.
Three other children, Reuben Silva, 7; Rudy Silva, 8, and Frank Borrego, 6, are in serious condition at the County General hospital as result of burns and injuries. Mrs. Florentine Keeler, Arcadia, and Mrs. Genevieve Keeler, Garvey, said to be a daughter of Charles H. Owens, well known Los Angeles newspaper artist, are under treatment at St. Joseph hospital for serious burns.
AT UTAH CENTER
News that interested many friends of Pre-Aviation Cadet Wilson E. Fulfer, son of the Earl H. Fulfers, 560 South Clementine street, was to the effect that he is now stationed at the Army Air Forces Basic Training Center at Kearns, Utah, where Col. Converse R. Lewis is commander. Fulfer was one of many thousands of aviation cadets called from the enlisted reserve to report for basic training at the many centers operated by the Air Forces. This basic training will include learning to march, use of small arms and machine guns, chemical warfare and kindred subjects, after which the young men will be sent to the various colleges under Air Corps supervision, to receive specialized training in preparation for entering aviation cadet training centers.
Air Raid Details Told by Speaker To Kiwanis Club
(Continued from page 1) pound per week for each individual and eggs were limited Again citing her personal experience, she said the average wage for women factory workers was about eight dollars. Even the blitz does not interfere with work in war plants during the raids. Since London offers military objectives to the enemy its people, its churches, schools and hospitals are the sufferers from the merciless attacks by the Germans, she stated.
Replying to many questions about the close of her talk, Mrs. Wilsh declared that there was no sentiment in England over the country's slowness in entering the war because of the fact that the United States was providing munitions and materiel for Britain prosecution of the war. She also told of Britain's attitude toward the Japanese and the necessity of aiding in the war against the European situation settled.
President Ewald Lemcke conducted the customary business session of the club. Before meeting closed members took opportunity to express regret at the pending departure of Chairman Price who leaves soon to take over ranch interests in Nevada.

EMERGENCY CITRUS MEETING
APRIL 4,1893
"Those growers?...They'll never get together!"
It looked as though the skeptics were right. There were so many differences of opinion, so much pressure from outside interests. And the citrus production for that year of 1893 was estimated to be nearly 6,000 cars. Think of it! How could a bunch of growers ever get together when their infant industry was already falling apart?
But the skeptics overlooked one point. The organized, too, that the industry's problems were too complicated for any individual grower to solve—that they could be successfully met only by the growers working together.

It looked as though the skeptics were right. There were so many differences of opinion, so much pressure from outside interests. And the citrus production for that year of 1893 was estimated to be nearly 6,000 cars. Think of it! How could a bunch of growers ever get together when their infant industry was already falling apart?
But the skeptics overlooked one point. The growers were desperate. They had been through a series of disastrous red ink years. Distribution was disorderly. Some markets had too much fruit, some had none at all. The growers had no control over sales. They had to accept what local handlers offered or consign their fruit to commission men in the east. Often the larger his crop, the more the grower owed his packer at the end of the season. It was now a question of cooperate or perish.
The growers did sign an agreement, forming the Southern California Fruit Exchange. It recognized that if the producers were to secure a good return they must direct the distribution and sale of their fruit. It recognized, too, that the industry's problems were too complicated for any individual grower to solve—that they could be successfully met only by the growers working together.
A Cooperative Marketing Plan
To achieve these ends the agreement provided that the growers would cooperate in the picking, grading, packing, distribution and selling of their fruit. It was a program so direct in its approach to the basic problems that it carried the Southern California Fruit Exchange through its difficult pioneering years, and remains today—50 years later—the fundamental program of its successor, the California Fruit Growers Exchange.
Now, the Exchange represents more than three out of every four California and Arizona citrus growers. These people, constructively working together to further the best interests of the citrus growers, urge you to learn how the industry's leading cooperative is handling the wartime problems of its members. For further information call at the address below or at any District Exchange or Sunkist packing house.
These basic policies of the Exchange, expressed in the Articles of Incorporation, are fundamental:
1. To furnish the facilities and agencies through which the fruit and by-products of its members may be sold to best advantage.
2. To improve the methods of fruit handling in the groves and packing houses.
3. To increase the consumption of citrus fruits and their by-products by bringing about an equitable distribution at all times to all markets and by developing new markets.
4. The Exchange is a non-profit cooperative marketing organization owned and directed by its members.

F. B. Kealiher is erecting a chili warehouse west of the Vegetable Union packing house at Garden Grove. It will be a brick structure 40x75 feet. Work was begun last week. The acreage planted to chili is 2500 acres Mexican chili, 1500 acres California long green chili. Most of these two varieties will be dried there and shipped. Also there are 1500 acres of pimentos which will be shipped to canneries. Mr. Kealiher has a chili grinder in this city. About 25 per cent of this entire acreage is planted by J. Allen Knapp and will be handled through his own warehouses. He is the largest individual grower in the United States.

The school trustees have engaged the services of Prof. Grogan as principal of the public schools next term. Miss Burton and Miss Foster have also been retained. Miss Hartley and Miss Williams go to Stanford University, and Misses Stack and Augustine are undecided as to whether they will return to California from the East.
Here are a couple of growls that we got in the mail: "The street sprinkler doesn't sprinkle enough during the hot summer days—one side of Center street gets dry before the other side is sprinkled. Punch bigger holes in the sprinkling business, or get a bigger sprinkler. Don't let the people say that we are more stingy with water than we are with beer. Hurry up the mail delivery at the postoffice and defer bicycle riding until after mail hours. Why don't they stop this bicycle riding? I very nearly got my neck broke the other night by my horse getting frightened at one of those infernal machines. They are a dashed nuisance."

Mr. and Mrs. Peter Stoffel have received word from their son here. He has been in the army for a number of years, serving for three years in the Philippines and has also been on duty in Texas and New Mexico on the Mexican border.
The city has in contemplation the purchase of some sort of motor driven street sprinkler, but as yet the superintendent has not decided the best device to use. There are a number of sprinklers on the market, but they are costly. Just as soon as a selection is made it is probable that the city will purchase one. Complaint is made of the dusty condition of the dirt roads, but owing to the high cost of road oil, the streets have not been kept up as well as they should be.
George W. Sloop arrived in town from Phoenix on Saturday and on Tuesday left with his family for a camping trip to Big Bear. Mr. Sloop is raising 360 acres of cotton which promises a fine crop. He has also 40 acres of milo maize. He reports the weather in Arizona exceedingly warm, and finds an agreeable change in the cool weather prevailing on the coast.
Every now and then the question comes up about changing this city from the sixth to the fifth class, but before that can be attempted a population of 6000 inhabitants must be contained within the limits. Anaheim now boasts about 5,200. The town is growing and it is not at all unlikely that the proposition will take concrete form one of these days, if all the knockers will bury their hatchets.

The glorious Fourth of July passed off quietly here, there being no celebration and most of the citizens being away. Flags flew at the mastheads, and in the afternoon business was generally suspended. The ladies of the Catholic church served lunch and ice cream at the school house yard, and during the afternoon and evening the young folks enjoyed an impromtu hop. The young boy ushered in the day with the detonating firecracker, and in the evening amused himself by sending up rockets and exploding firecrackers without end.
We take pleasure in directing attention to the new dry goods advertisement of our popular merchant, Isaac Lyons which will be found elsewhere in our columns this morning. Mr. Lyons has fitted his store with a stock of new dry goods, boots and shoes; gents furnishing goods, fancy goods, hats, etc., and now has one of the most complete establishments in Southern California. His store would be a credit to a city much larger than this.
The flag on the city hall flowed triumphant in the breezes all day long yesterday. It had flapped itself about the staff on the gloriur Fourth and could not be taken down. The report yesterday afternoon was that City Clerk Nebelung having just returned exhilarated from the Springs, would climb up the flag pole and take it down.
