Annual ‘Poppy Day’ To Be On May 26-27
“Million or more for 1944” has been the slogan selected for the sale of poppies on “Poppy Day,” it was revealed last week by Mrs. Tona Sandon, department poppy chairman of the Anaheim American Legion Auxiliary. The annual event will be held on May 26 and 27 and Mrs. Sandon urged that the organization back the event to its limit. Working in close co-operation will be the Veteran of Foreign War's Auxiliary.
The poppies are made in six hospitals; Livermore, Palto Alto, Ft. Miley, Marine hospital at San Francisco, San Fernando and Sawtelle. Last year $24,000 was turned over to the veterans, and it is hoped that this year over $30,000 will be paid them.
In explaining about the work Mrs. Sandon said that each veteran receives three cents a poppy and is allowed to make 700 of them so that the checks for the full quota per person is $21. More than 1,000,000 poppies have been made to date and this year's sale is expected to be the largest in the history of the state and nation.
Air Transport To Handle Fresh Fruit And Vegetables
DETROIT. — California growers stand to benefit more from the development of air transportation than any other farm group in the United States, according to a comprehensive study of actual and potential traffic in fresh produce just completed by a group of Wayne University (Detroit) professors, headed by Dr. Spencer A. Larsen, and published today by the Wayne University Press.
The national study forecasts that in the years immediately following the war, fresh produce alone will furnish enough air cargo to total over 233 times the combined weights of all commodities carried by air in 1941—proved air-freight rates are reduced to five cents per ton-mile—a figure which many authorities see as possible in the near future. Even at seven cents a mile, fruit and vegetable traffic equal to 80 times the 1941 figure for all air express is expected to develop.
The survey stresses the importance of California to the future air-freight business, pointing out that almost a third of all fresh produce moved over 250 miles in the United States is grown in this state. Indications are that 212,000,000 ton-miles of traffic in these commodities will be transported from the California growers to the great midwestern and eastern market.
Alex Jarmillo, 30, is in the Orange County hospital recovering from a gunshot wound in the chest believed by police to have been self inflicted. He lives at 124 West Santa Ana street.
