Backers of No. 12 Anti-Union Bill, Sued by Laborers Orange county labor leaders, joining with the rest of the state in labor's fight against the so-called "Right to Work" bill, No. 12, which will appear on the general election ballot, report that suits are being filed against the promoters of the anti-labor bill and that criminal action is expected. A $10,000 damage suit has been filed in Los Angeles with charges that the Purity of Election Act has been violated. Orange county labor leaders who are working to defeat the anti-labor bill have secured transcripts of the contributors to the huge slush fund that is being used to promote the "Right to Work" bill, some of whom they believe have been misled in lending their support to the bill they say is designed to outlaw labor. In several instances contributors are listed "Anonymous" as givers of sums ranging from $250 to $1,000, when the law requires the name and address of each person contributing to slush funds for the promotion of amendments of this kind, the union officials say. The Union Record, San Pedro, in backing up the fight of union labor against Proposition No. 12, has the following to say: "The open and 'undercover' campaigns for the return of Japs to California this week was linked directly with powerful interests backing the unpatriotic and un-American proposed state constitutional amendment. No. 12, as the Associated Farmers poured funds into the current campaign and began an eleventh hour attack on organized labor in Orange County, and other sections of the state."

State Chamber of Commerce Raps No. 12 BACRAMENTO, Sept. 10 (UP)—A statement reaffirming opposition of the California State Chamber of Commerce to the "right to work" amendment, No. 12 on the November 7 ballot this year, was released today over the signature of Harrison S. Robinson of Oakland, president. He pointed out the State-wide business group announced its position at Los Angeles meetings on two previous occasions before the amendment qualified for the ballot. One was April 14, the other June 23, and the reaffirmation was given by the board of directors at Sacramento last Friday, Robinson said. Robinson added: "In view of public statements made by others in which the position of the chamber has been misinterpreted, the chamber cannot record that it is opposed by pulsory union membership or definition of employment, butizes the right of employee employees to contract voluntarily." Vote No on Proposition No. 12 War Mothers! Wives! Let’s act on the suggestion of the State Chamber of Commerce! Let’s vote NO on No. 12. We must insure peace on the home front to keep faith with the boys on the war front. They’ll be coming home soon. They’ll want jobs at decent wages—not industrial strife, not coolie wages, not half-portions on the dinner table and, not a lower standard of American living. Grave dangers lurk in the wording of No. 12. This measure comes as a wartime attack on war production. It threatens chaos now and in the post war world. No. 12 threatens the security of every wage earner. Let’s join with all our might in opposing un-American No. 12. As a leading editor warns, it “threatens civil war in California”. And, Ladies, remember... Governor Earl Warren, the State Chamber of Commerce, civic leaders and scores of representative organizations ask you to— Vote No on No. 12 CITIZENS’ COMMITTEE AGAINST PROPOSITION No. 12 AVOCADO GROWERS ATTEND INSTITUTE AT LA HABRA HOME 300 avocado growers of Orange and Los Angeles Counties brought up to date on avocaculture and marketing topics at the 15th Annual Institute held at Habra Washington school last day.

Orange County will have about 40 percent of last year's crop; Vista percent; Foothill 37 percent; Brook 38 percent; Ventura 65 percent; and Santa Barbara 100 percent. B. B.

Wahlberg showed by charts in the ord of Ross Hodson at La Habra well spaced trees—fewer to acquire, can yield more fruit than closely planted, crowd-stretched in benediction on America. In the spirit of her gesture are the words "On Earth Peace." The completion of the thought that comes to one's mind are the words, "Good Will Toward Men." Accepting the mural on behalf of the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce, Chairman Lea called attention to the great strides that have been made in the development of civil aviation under the stress of war. The ANAHEIM GAZETTE NEW ROCKWELL KENT MURAL Airplane view of America at peace—the theme of mural presented to Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce of the U.S. House of Representatives. Washington—Forcasting America at peace, an artist's conception of our countryside as it would appear from an airplane after the war, is the story portrayed by Rockwell Kent, famous landscape and figure painter and wood engraver, in his mural in the meeting room of the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Presenting his mural, which has been called by critics the outstanding decoration of the House and Senate, to Chairman Clarence F. Lea of the House Committee at ceremonies here, Mr. Kent described the painting as a checkerboard of fields, pastures and forests with the little villages here and there, and the church spire so familiar to travelers by air. There is a broad modern highway crowded with peacetime motor traffic, and heavy river and railroad operations. In the sky are streamlined airplanes. Above all these realities is a group of four angels flying outward to the four corners of our land and of the world. Their wings have the form of the letter "V" for Victory, and they represent the Four Freedoms. Freedom of Speech is represented by an angel bearing flowers; Freedom from Fear by an angel with head erect and looking outward; Freedom from Want by an angel bearing a sheaf of wheat; and Freedom of Religion by an angel with arms and hands outstretched in benediction on America. In the spirit of her gesture are the words “On Earth Peace.” The completion of the thought that comes to one’s mind are the words, “Good Will Toward Men.” Accepting the mural on behalf of the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce, Chairman Lea called attention to the great strides that have been made in the development of civil aviation under the stress of war. The major improvements in air transport, born out of the urgent requirements of military needs, will be a great stimulus to aviation throughout the world in the years immediately following the close of the war, the veteran legislator said. He foresaw a definite place in postwar aviation for thousands upon thousands of returning pilots, mechanics and technicians who have been successful in military aviation and who desire to remain in peace-time aviation. Chairman Lea emphasizes that civil aviation has grown to be one of the major industries of the nation. In his opinion the value of our commercial air system to our economy and well-being is limited only by the ability exercised in its utilization. “No man can visualize the extremities of aviation's growth in the decade or generation ahead,” said Chairman Lea. “The spirit that inspired the artist inspires all of us when we think of America at peace once again.” National 4-H Club Achievement Week November 4 to 11 National 4-H Achievement Week honoring 1,700,000 4-H boys and girls in the nation will be observed November 4 to 11, it was stated today by H. W. Longfellow, Assistant Farm Adviser. Orange County 4-H members are opening the celebration with their Achievement Day Program on Friday evening, November 3, at the Fremont School, Anaheim, with approximately 3000 members participating. A feature of the evening will be humorous readings by the Rev. Gerald Bash. The presentation of awards will be divided between A. J. Schutte, Orange County Farm Bureau president; Roy N. Edwards, County Key Banker, representing the California Bankers' Association; H. E. Wahlberg, representative the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of California, and Deane Smiley, president of the Orange County 4-H Club Council. National Achievement Week marks the culmination of the 1944 year, and will set the stage for the results to be attained during the 4-H Club year of 1945. Purposes of the special week are to acquaint the nation with 4-H accomplishments in helping to win the war; to acquaint parents with the 4-H Club work of their own girls and boys; to give recognition to individual and group achievements; to develop plans for the coming year; and to encourage enrollment. Production and conservation of food, much of which stressed war requirements, reached record totals for the year and a special tribute will be paid nationally to those 4-H boys and girls who, themselves, produced enough "food to feed a fighter."
