Proposed New Citrus Marketing Order Indicates Virtual Dictatorship
Of importance to all orange growers in this area is the proposed new marketing order for the handling of oranges in California and Arizona, which has been reviewed by Ralph P. Allen of Tuscaloosa independent representative of the growers' advisory committee. Roy F. Hendrickson as director of the food distribution division of the War Food Administration, made a virtual dictator over the California and Arizona citrus industry by virtue of the proposed order. For it states definitely that any decision made by the administrative program committee may be declared null and void by him. Furthermore it provides that any all committees appointed may be dismissed at any time upon discretion of the director.
In effect, the order decrees that any orange grower in either state who violates its proposed features, may be penalized by being deprived of his gas ration coupons, his right to priorities of any kind, or when his food ration stamps.
Furthermore, according to Al., if the proposed order is made effective, all persons under its jurisdiction must maintain accurate records of all transactions in orages for the remainder of their lives, if the director so designates. The Food Administration claims that the proposed order is "beved necessary in the interests of the defense of the United States fulfills requirements for oranges and orange products needed for military forces, the lend-lease program, and essential civilian use."
According to its terms, growers must pay upon demand, to the program committee any prorated share of expenses incurred in distribution and handling which the director may call for. This would mean that the 22,000 growers in California and Arizona not only could be diverting their products into the War Food Administration
Word Of War Hero’s Rescue Reaches Local Relatives

Further details of Lieut. O'Brien's thrilling experiences were given in an Associated Press dispatch which pointed out that the torpedo boat which rescued him was on a bombing mission to Messina Straits. It also told that he was awarded the Purple Heart, in addition to the Distinguished Flying Cross which came to him after an earlier raid on Taormina.
Anaheim Rotarians had Robert H. Boney to thank for securing one of the most interesting speakers of the year in the person of Bob Miller of the United Press who on Monday, told service club members of his experiances on Guadalcanal, where as war correspondent, he landed with the first contingent of United States Marines.
Introduced by Jimmy Heffron, local newspaperman, Miller described the movement of the Marines which took the Japanese entirely by surprise. This advance on Guadalcanal through the heavy overcast, was made he explained, before the invading forces were fully prepared or equipped. But it was necessary in order to maintain the surprise element, especially in view of the fact that the airfield, now in American hands as the famous Henderson Field, was then nearly completed by the Japs in possession.
Within a week after the Marines had taken Guadalcanal, the air field was completed, although Miller explained that the Japs had the air above Guadalcanal quite to themselves for two weeks longer until U.S. planes arrived.
"That was a happy sight to the hard-pressed Marines" he stated, and paid high tribute to the skill of the American airmen whose seemingly fabulous feats of shooting down enemy planes over Guadalcanal, have not been exaggerated.
Supplementing his eye-witness account of those history-making days, were many other sidelights on war in the Pacific brought out during an interval when Miller answered the rapid-fire questions propounded by club members.
During the business session conducted by President Paul Demaree was induction into membership of LeRoy Ater, local rancher and president of Toastmaster club, with Thomas McFadden conducting the ceremony.

Supervisors Start Water Move For Underground Basin

on the suggestion, and Atty. Rutan emphasized the value of the water basin to the two companies directly concerned and to the entire county. He pointed out that irrigation pumps are now working below sea level in this underground basin, and if sufficient water is pumped out with no more added from such sources as that proposed, the fresh water pressure that now retards the salt water at the ocean end of the basin, will not be sufficient to withstand the eventual filling of the entire underground basin with salt water from the ocean.
