Stock, ink and design in the modern manner — at Alcohol’s Vital Part In War Use Told 20-30 Club “If you drink—drink moderately and whatever you drink—drink wisely” is the advice that Paul Schlesinger of the consumer’s education department of the big distilling corporations gave members of the 20-30 club Monday evening when the local club and the Santa Ana 20-30 club gathered at the Anaheim Elk's clubhouse for a joint meeting. Alcohol is vitally needed for war purposes, the speaker pointed out, in urging that Americans practice self denial and moderation. In illustrating his talk with charts and exhibits Schlesinger told how the distilling industry has converted all its production facilities to the distilling of industrial alcohol used in the production of smokeless powder, for propelling torpedoes, in the production of synthetic rubber, medicines, ether and for lend-lease purposes. “Every time a 16-inch naval gun is fired, 173 gallons of alcohol were required for making the smokeless powder,” he said. “Even before Pearl Harbor technicians of the distilling industry went to the government with plans for converting the industrial facilities to war production. When the zero hour came the government was Driver Absolved Of Blame in Death Of Mrs. S. Breen Harry Turner Roeschlaub, 521 South Walnut street, was absolved of all blame in the accident last Wednesday night that resulted in the death of Mrs. Sarah Elizabeth Breen, 69, of Anaheim, on the following day. Accidental death was the decision reached by the coroner's jury that met Monday afternoon at the Hilgenfeld mortuary. The accident occurred early Wednesday evening when Mrs. Breen was struck by a car driven by Turner while crossing the street at Broadway and Citron streets. The driver said that he did not see the victim step from the curb and he did not realize she was in the street until his machine struck her. Anaheim police reported that her body was dragged 63 feet after the impact. She was taken to the Anaheim Lutheran hospital where she succumbed early the next morning. Funeral services were conducted for the deceased early this week at the Hilgenfeld mortuary with Rev. Earl R. Berg, pastor of the Calvary Baptist church, officiating. Burial was made at Loma Vista Memorial park. A native of Missouri she had lived in California 60 years and in Anaheim 40 years.

"Even before Pearl Harbor technicians of the distilling industry went to the government with plans for converting the industrial facilities to war production. When the zero hour came the government was saved much time and a great deal of expense by the fact that the industry existed and that its facilities stood ready for war use." The speaker concluded his talk with an interesting account of the scientific process used in producing quality whiskey. The speaker was introduced by Arvil Triplett, program chairman. The short business meeting was presided over by the president, John Maloney. A report was held on progress of the membership drive that is now being conducted. For failure to bring a prospective member to the affair Jim Robinson was awarded "Pinky," the guinea pig. For the next three weeks he will have to provide for "Pinky's" comfort. The evening was concluded with the local club adjourning to Fullerton where members participated in a bowling tournament.

USDC To Take Farm Census An appeal for all ranchers, farmers, horticulturists and stock raisers in Southern California counties to cooperate to the fullest with the United States Department of Commerce's 1945 agricultural census was voiced today by George B. Hodgkin, chairman of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce's committee on agriculture, horticulture and livestock. "Accurate statistical information," he stated, "will be compiled by this governmental effort. Facts of this kind will be applied in determining future needs of agricultural regions for fertilizer, insecticides and farm machinery; adjusting crop production and performing other steps which will add to profits of the producers.

Operators of the land in cooperation with census enumerators, of whom more than 300 soon will be in service, will make it possible for greater production of food needed on battle and home fronts."
