It is hard for Californians to visualize damaging frosts in July, but during that "down under" winter month the Australian citrus crop, particularly lemons, was seriously injured by frosts. POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT We FARMERS Are Against The New Deal BECAUSE: 1. COMMUNISTS have steadily penetrated into places of power in America under the New Deal. They seek to gain complete control of our government through Sidney Hillman's CIO Political Action Committee and Earl Browder's Communist followers. There are no morals to communism, it is the avowed enemy of human freedom and human rights in property. 2. CORRUPT MACHINE BOSSES such as the Hagues, Kellys and the Pendergasts are absolutely unconcerned about the welfare of America. They have aligned themselves with the Communists against America’s best interests solely because they expect to be paid off in places and power by the New Deal Fourth Term. 3. ANTI-AGRICULTURE as well as Anti-America is the proven record of Communists and corrupt machine bosses. They do not have the slightest shadow of agricultural interest. Their only interest is to own the Fourth Term Administration Body and Soul. 3. ANTI-AGRICULTURE as well as Anti-America is the proven record of Communists and corrupt machine bosses.

TREMENDOUS POST-WAR PROBLEMS which lie ahead will not nor can not be solved by an administration owned lock, stock and barrel by such evil agents. America’s need cries out for the leadership of clean men who stand up for honesty and forthrightness, for men who have faith in America’s future and the ability and desire to protect it. Therefore, we urge every person who loves America, to go to the Polls next Tuesday and cast their ballot against the New Deal to prove once and for all that . . America MUST BE Governed by AMERICANS!

It was the decision of that body that an issue of 2,000,000 be floated for that purpose. Supervisors T. B. Talbert and William Schumacher were present. Mr. Talbert called attention to the assessed valuation of orange county and stated that a 2,000,000 bond issue would require a tax of 17½ cents on the 100, and with this the county could still have the lowest tax rate of any county in the state upon motion of A.

Holingsworth, the rural carrier, whose route is in that section, was ultimately acquainted with them and one day asked the poetess to give him a souvenir of some kind. Next week she handed him the following little poem: The Coming of The Postman The ponies of the postman are Trotting up the street. Our hearts are beating measure To the music of their feet.
