In and About "The Orange Capitol of the World"
If some of the merchants could be on this end of the telephone when we get something in the paper wrong, they would never let the Gazette go to press without their own ad in the paper. They would be convinced that "Everybody reads the Gazette."
There is a lot of fuss being made about this young crooner, Frank Sinatra. They say his marriage to Nancy is a success and they now have two babies. But their marriage won't be a success very long seems like an endless task. But there isn't anybody who can intrigue you like Victor Hugo. I believe he had the keenest mind of any of the old writers; and Pearl Buck is the smartest woman writer of them all. She probably wonders herself why she ever married a missionary, but if she hadn't she never would have gone to China, in which case you probably would never have heard of Pearl Buck. Anyway she has another husband now and is doing right well.
Orange County's C Senate Makes Form
Justus Craemer's hat is in the ring for U. S. Senator!
Mr. Craemer, Orange county publisher and grower, and member of the State Railroad Commission, made known his decision in a letter sent to the publishers of nearly 200 California newspapers who had urged that he become a candidate, and who had pledged their support of his candidacy.
In his letter to publishers—copies of which were sent to the chairmen of all Republican coun-
There is a lot of fuss being made about this young crooner, Frank Sinatra. They say his marriage to Nancy is a success and they now have two babies. But their marriage won't be a success very long if about ten million foolish women who are trying to make Frank lose his head and his happy home can break it up.
The political fortunes are smiling on Orange county this year if the voters will take advantage of the opportunity to elect two of its citizens to the high offices they have already announced for. At one election Orange county can jump into the forefront of political prestige, if we will vote and work for our own candidates for United States senate and the California state senate, respectively. Justus Craemer, publisher of the Orange Daily News, orange grower, and presently member of the State Railroad Commission, will seek the nomination for the U. S. senate. He is eminently qualified for the office he seeks and already has many years of political experience to his credit. Serving as secretary in the governor's office, as deputy director of the State Department of Public Works, as State Building and Loan commissioner, and as Railroad Commissioner, he has gained an insight into the affairs at Sacramento and Washington that few men have ever had the opportunity to attain. Capable and dependable from every standpoint, Orange county and the state at large has a chance to send a young and vigorous, yet thoroughly seasoned representative to the U. S. senate with a prospect of keeping him there long enough to become a power in the national political picture.
On the same ballot Orange countians will have an opportunity to keep its own native son, Lieut. Thomas H. Kuchel, in the state senate for another four-year term. After two terms as state assemblyman, Senator Kuchel is finishing four years in the senate. As one of the younger members of the state legislature he has already become a powerful figure at the state capitol. Possessed of there isn't anybody who can intrigue you like Victor Hugo. I believe he had the keenest mind of any of the old writers; and Pearl Buck is the smartest woman writer of them all.

Anyway she has another husband now and is doing right well.
Russia is afraid Germany is receiving some of the merchandise we ship to Spain, a non-beligerant country, through Spanish traders. That is one of the frailties of international customs during war time. Russia probably knows that is what is happening, but we also know that Japan is receiving merchandise, including gasoline to bomb us with, that we are sending to Russia, supposedly to keep Russia in the war against Germany. Russia is not at war with Japan, although she would like to be, therefore she trades and barters in merchandise with the Japanese. In return, through Russia, we are receiving merchandise made in Japan out of vital materials that are not allowed to be used here except in war industries. It's a crazy business, this international custom thing.
I am in receipt of an air mail letter dated "North Africa, December 31, 1943, Prisoner of War Camp No. 129," from my young friend Capt. Sequoyah A. Perry. He was formerly court clerk at Pryor, Okla., and learned of my having left there to come to California when he read about it in a Tulsa paper that arrived in Africa. Capt. Perry was a reserve officer and was called to active duty three years ago. He stated in his letter that he had been overseas about a year. His letter states that he has learned a lot about international affairs which we will talk about when the war is over. I imagine this country will largely be run by the soldiers who come back from this war because they'll be a lot smarter than those of us who stayed at home.
If you're open for propositions and are wondering what would be a good business to go into, well, I wouldn't know what to advise you, except if you want to get rich you'd better stay out of the newspaper business. I once knew

On the same ballot Orange countians will have an opportunity to keep its own native son, Lieut. Thomas H. Kuchel, in the state senate for another four-year term. After two terms as state assemblyman, Senator Kuchel is finishing four years in the senate. As one of the younger members of the state legislature he has already become a powerful figure at the state capitol. Possessed of an unusual personality he wins his way into the hearts of his colleagues and gathers support for any measure he champions. The political spot light follows the district that sends capable young men to its legislative halls, and keeps them there. It takes time to grow into political influence and Tommy Kuchel has arrived at his political majority after giving eight years of his youthful vigor to the service of his state. He has reached the stage in his career when his political influence will gather momentum all the faster. A statesman in the making, Tommy Kuchel is Orange county's hope for future statehouse influence. The next four years, most of which we may presume will be the post-war period, will no doubt be the most important era in the history of this state. It will be another history-making period and a time when young, capable and experienced men, such as Senator Tommy Kuchel, will be needed to guide the destiny of California as it develops into the greatest industrial metropolis in all the world. As for me and all my friends, we're going to help re-elect Tommy Kuchel to the state senate, and send Justus Craemer to Washington.
I am about to make up my mind to start again, for the fifth time, to try to read 'Les Miserables' all the way through. Trying to read those two volumes all at one time talk about when the war is over. I imagine this country will largely be run by the soldiers who come back from this war because they'll be a lot smarter than those of us who stayed at home.
If you're open for propositions and are wondering what would be a good business to go into, well, I wouldn't know what to advise you, except if you want to get rich you'd better stay out of the newspaper business. I once knew some Greek boys who ran a shoe shine stand who didn't do so bad. They rented a strip of ground six feet wide and 40 feet deep between two buildings over which they fixed a roof attached to the two walls. Finally the owner notified them they would have to move as he planned to remodel the adjoining building to cover the strip of ground they were using. They tried to buy the 6x40 feet of ground and their last offer was $60,000 cash. That was when shoe shines sold for a nickel. I knew another man who started a second-hand store with two cases of empty used fruit jars and $10 in money in a small town in Oklahoma. After 12 years he sold out and came to California with $39,-000 cash in his pockets. I recently sold a newspaper that I owned for ten years during which time the salary I was able to take from my own business was $20,000 less than I was making before I went into business for myself, but the merchants in my town thought I was getting rich off of their (non) support. If you want to make money sell some thing that nobody needs that will retail for five or ten cents. Or, better still—use your own judgment.

Age County’s Candidate For U. S. State Makes Formal Announcement
Craemer’s hat is in the U. S. Senator!
Craemer, Orange county and grower, and meme the State Railroad Commade known his decision er sent to the publishers by 200 California news-ho had urged that he be candidate, and who had their support of his can-letter to publishers—which were sent to the of all Republican coun-matter carefully and have reached my decision.
“I will be a candidate for U. S. Senator—and with your support, and that of a host of other good friends who believe as we do, I am confident we will win.”

On the other hand, his public career—including service as a secretary in the governor's office, as deputy director of the State Department of Public Works, as State Building and Loan Commissioner, and in his present capacity as a member of the State Railroad Commission—has brought him in close contact with the business and industrial problems of the entire state.

Senator Thomas H. Kuchel To Seek Re-Election To Post
(By Jake Proctor)
Senator Thomas H. Kuchel, who returned to his navy base at San Francisco after attending the special session of the state legislature last week, has authorized the announcement that he will be a candidate for re-election in the coming campaign.
Orange county friends of the dynamic young senator, now serving as a lieutenant in the U.
made it possible for them to live in that city where they are keeping house until the time comes when they can return to their home in Anaheim. For a time he was stationed at San Pedro and at Washington, D. C.
Due to his popularity throughout Orange county, and to the splendid record he has made as assemblyman, and as state senator, political leaders here predict his re-election to the latter office. They point out that this district could not afford to pass up an opportunity to retain in office a young man of Senator Kuchel's caliber, whose political prestige and strength at home and at the state capitol, has developed by leaps and bounds.
Even though he is now serving in the U. S. Navy, it is expected that he major portion of his four-year term will be after the war is ended. With his experience and

ace within cities of California, the balance of $5,770,214 reing in the highway fund will depended on the state highway term.
LT. SEN. THOS. H. KUCHEL
S. Navy, have been urging him to make the race and voluntary offers of support have come from all quarters, since Senator Kuchel will not be able to make a personal campaign. With the assurance of many of his friends in both political parties that they will carry on the campaign for him while he remains at his post in the navy service, he has consented to have his name filed as a candidate for re-election to the office.
Leaving his law practice in Anaheim June 1, 1942, Senator Kuchel volunteered his services to the armed forces and entered the navy as a lieutenant (j. g.). During his first year in the service he won the promotion to full lieutenant, which rank he now holds. Stationed at San Francisco he has been permitted to attend the legislature on leave of absence from the Navy. It is understood here that if re-elected he will be granted leave to attend the full session of the legislature when it convenes.
Lieut. Kuchel was first elected as assemblyman in 1936, and re-elected in 1938, which office he held until 1940 when he was elected state senator for the four year term.
When it became apparent that he would be needed for military duty in spite of the fact that he would not be subject to the draft on account of his office, Senator Kuchel put his growing law practice on the shelf, submerged his personal ambitions and volunteered his services to the prose-
his re-election to the latter office. They point out that this district could not afford to pass up an opportunity to retain in office a young man of Senator Kuchel's caliber, whose political prestige and strength at home and at the state capitol, has developed by leaps and bounds.
Even though he is now serving in the U. S. Navy, it is expected that he major portion of his four-year term will be after the war is ended. With his experience and known qualities, and the possibility that the war will end long before his term of office expires, political leaders point out that it would be an unwise step not to send him back to the senate, since he has definitely decided to enter the race, even though by remote control.
A native of Anaheim and a member of one of the first families, Lieut. Senator Kuchel, is the son of the late Henry Kuchel, pioneer newspaper publisher, and Mrs. Kuchel, who with her older son, Theodore B. Kuchel, still operate the Anaheim Gazette which has been published by the family since 1875. He is a graduate of Anaheim Union high school, University of Southern California and USC law school and is a member of Phi Kappa Psi, college fraternity. At the time he entered the Navy he was chairman of the Republican State Central committee, an honor never before held by a man of his years.
His popularity, however, is not with republicans alone and he polls a heavy vote from the democratic and non-partisan ranks.
Friends of the young senator are already busy in his behalf and plan to render him the service of carrying on his campaign while he serves the country as a member of the U. S. Navy.

NO TIME TO RELAX
This is no time for home front fatigue. There will be time enough to relax when Hitler and Hirohito quit.
Secretary Morgenthau's keynote for the 3rd War Loan is still the text of the 4th War Loan. Listen:
"Before the last shot is fired,
a lot of lives are going to be lost and a lot of billions spent. The more American dollars are spent, the less American blood is going to redden foreign soil."
We look back at what we thought was "sacrifice" and find it small. But the end is not here—yet. American boys are still going overseas. The guns which take their lives have not ceased firing.
Is there anyone anywhere in this community, which has been free of the noise of battle, who will not find it possible to buy one more Bond than he has planned? Is there anyone who cares about a Boy who is somewhere overseas who will not say that this is the time to send the word along: "We are backing you up with everything we have."
