Orange county the larger cities are using water from the Metropolitan aqueduct and within a few months the underground water supply level, upon which agriculture must depend, has begun to rise. Eventually, by being relieved of the drain for commercial and domestic use, the underground reservoir will build up, relieving the danger of salt water seepage from the ocean and assuring adequate water for irrigation. Some complain that the pure soft water from Boulder dam is not so palatable as the former well water supply, but it is good and there is plenty of it, which is the principal consideration. Every resident of southern California should be grateful for the foresight and ingenuity that brought the abundant supply of life-giving, live-saving water from Boulder dam to perpetuate the growth and development of this section.
It appears that a double race problem faces the west coast. The general sentiment is definitely against returning the Japs to this area from which they were deported after Pearl Harbor. In the meantime the west has encouraged the migration of negroes to this section from the southern states. In the cities the negroes now occupy most of the property formerly occupied by the Japs. The negroes do not want to give up the property to the Japs that are returning, yet as a group they have passed resolutions favoring the return of the Japs, since they must necessarily take a stand against race prejudice. A majority of the negroes come from the south where "Jim-Crow" laws keep them segregated and the laws forbid their intermarrying with the whites, which is an ambition they cherish and a privilege they are taking advantage of in California, since there is no law against it. The Japs, on the other hand, apparently have no desire to intermarry with the whites and voluntarily keep themselves segregated. There is some question whether the Japs can be assimilated by blood, whereas it is a known fact that the negro will invariably revert back to the black race when crossed by blood with the white race. In Los Angeles many white women have economic and social system, that in spite of the unlimited riches that abound here, more than 85 percent of the people who reach the age of 65 are dependent upon relatives or charity. The only answer is, that every time we make a millionaire, multi-millionaire, or a billionaire, of which there are many, the result can only be that thousands upon thousands of other people automatically become paupers. As long as we are able to predetermine that 90 percent of all businesses that are started are doomed to eventually go broke, which means mostly small businesses, the wage earner has about an equal chance with his neighbor who is operating a business. The trouble is that neither of them, on the average, will be independent when they are no longer able to do productive work. With that picture, universal old age pensions will come as the human race becomes humanized.
Back in the "good old days" of 1935 California had over 700,000 unemployed workers and wages were just "whatever you want to pay." That was a tragic period in the history of America, and so is today a tragic period on account of the war. But, partly as a consequence of that war the unemployment situation is quite different. It is interesting to note, however, that during 1944 unemployment reached a peak of 60,-000, yet it was practically impossible to hire help in any line of business. Most of those "unemployed" workers were not actually without work, according to the California Department of Employment, but were in the process of changing from one job to another and relatively few filed claims for unemployment insurance. If we can plan as well for constructive jobs as we can to make weapons of destruction, the good old days of 1935 will never return. Time will tell.
After a quarter of a century of publicity and propaganda to prove how big the oil industry really is, a campaign has now been started to prove how "tiny" the oil business is after all. Somebody must be trying to tack another tax onto the oil industry, which probably wouldn't make any difference because the motorists would eventually pay it anyway. For a good many years the money raisers have looked to the oil business, considered big and rich, and to the automobile, still even considered a luxury, as the most fertile grounds for another tax, all of which they purchased at frontage on Los Angeles of 90 feet and a depth of 22 running through to Charter houses now standing on will be removed. The quarters of the firm in the Theatre building are two began a few days ago on tension of the Center street for the expanding business; the Theodore Roberts blood store rooms will be added frontage to be the same as her part of the building.

lege they are taking advantage of in California, since there is no law against it. The Japs, on the other hand, apparently have no desire to intermarry with the whites and voluntarily keep themselves segregated. There is some question whether the Japs can be assimilated by blood, whereas it is a known fact that the negro will invariably revert back to the black race when crossed by blood with the white race. In Los Angeles many white women have already married negro men, and perhaps vice versa, which is the quickest way to bring on a demand by the negroes of complete social equality. In fact, social equality means only one thing—free inter-marriage between the races. If that's what the west wants it is well on the way to having it as far as the negroes are concerned, while the Japs refuse to accept social equality to that extent.
My observation is that aside from the strenuous campaign against the proposed "$60-at-60" pension bill on the general election ballot, another reason it didn't carry is that the present old age pensioners, all of whom are well past 60 years of age, are well pleased with the pension they are now getting and voted against the measure. I am not qualified to say whether the proposed bill would have been all right or not, but the point I am trying to make is that the old age pensioners now on the rolls are not particularly interested in those who have yet to reach the pension age. It merely proves the selfishness that is inherent in the human family. It may be too early now, but a national, universal pension plan will be adopted in the not distant future; whether we now think so or not. This country will eventually abolish poverty and want, especially for those who have a campaign has now been started to prove how "tiny" the oil business is after all. Somebody must be trying to tack another tax onto the oil industry, which probably wouldn't make any difference because the motorists would eventually pay it anyway. For a good many years the money raisers have looked to the oil business, considered big and rich, and to the automobile, still even considered a luxury, as the most fertile grounds for another tax, all of which must eventually be paid by the poor suckers to have to own a car in order to operate in the modern business and social setup. Big industry fights against additional taxes but the little people are the ones who do the pay-off in the long run.
While I have never questioned the wisdom of those old boys who layed out the District of Columbia and made the rules that govern the site of the nation's capitol, it has always appeared somewhat unfair that the residents of Washington are disfranchised. Maybe it didn't make much difference at first, but now over a million people live in the capitol district who are deprived of the democratic privilege of voting in the national elections, and they have no local government of their own. It can be assumed that they are fairly intelligent; otherwise they would not be there, and they should have a better insight into the political picture than those who reside in remote sections of the country. J. E. Jones of the National Industries News Service in Washington believes that after 70 years of this "anti-Democratic rule," the people of the states should come to the resuce of Washington residents and ask congress to change the rules. He would like to hear from anybody who believes that the residents of Washington, D.C. should be allowed to vote as

Efforts are being made to organize a full battalion of California National Guard in Orange County with a company at each of the four principal cities in the county — Santa Ana, Anaheim, Orange and Fullerton. Santa Ana already has a company. Adjutant General J. J. Borree, head of the California Guard and Col. J. S. McNight were in Santa Ana and Orange Monday forenoon and arrived in Anaheim at one o'clock accompanied by Sheriff Jackson and Lieut. Jesse Elliott of the Santa Ana company. An informal meeting was held at the Mother Colony club rooms at which there were present City Manager Steward, Trustee Mann and W. P. Webb Jr., president of the Anaheim Post, American Legion, all of whom endorsed the plan. A company is composed of 65 men, but his is shortly to be increased to 100. All the uniforms, arms and equipment will be furnished by the U.S. Government and the

Edward R. Amerige was elected president of the new board of water directors at their meeting on Monday. Mr. Ryan moved, after the old Board had adjourned sine die, and Mr. Botsford was selected as temporary chairman, that the old officers—Mr. Crowther, president, Mr. Ryan, vice-president and Mr. Blenerhassett, secretary—be re-elected for the ensuing year. Then followed a flash of eloquent silence, broken after a spell by Mr. McFadden, who nominated Mr. Amerige for President. Mr. Spencer recorded Amerige's nomination and the ballot resulted: Amerige 4; Cowther 3. Mr. Amerige was declared elected, Mr. Ryan was chosen vice-president without opposition and Mr. Blenerhassett's efficiency as secretary of the company was appropriately rewarded by his re-election to fill the office for another year. Superintendent Sheppard and Zanjeros Stone and Littlefield were re-elected.
Kiwanians Given Story of China And Her Troubles
"Japan is winning the battles, but China is winning the war." That was the terse answer to the mental question uppermost in the minds of local Kiwanians Tuesday noon when Tom Elliott, American Y. M. C. A worker who spent 20 years in China was the guest speaker at the noon lunchcon meeting. The mystery which is China was partly unfolded by the interesting speaker as he talked from first hand information about his experiences during his long residence in the Chinese Empire.
The Japanese war on China did not start in 1937, as the general conception has it, but rather in 1931 when the Japs overran Manchuria, the speaker said. Since that time the war has developed in proportion and during all those years the unconquerable Chinese have battled the superior enemy while other nations looked on.
When Chaing Kai Shek fell heir to the power of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, as the Communist leader, he started to organize the country along democratic lines, by force, later selling out to the capitalists and turning his army on the group he formerly headed. Consequently 200,000 Chinese people were driven over a "trail of tears" into the far north, the poorest section of the country, and were corralled there by an army maintained by Chaing Kai Shek.
This was years after Dr. Sun Yat Sen had been refused aid by the United States, Great Britain, and others, and in desperation had sought the help of Russia in development of the landed by authorities that called Communists and patriots of China and the principal force that Japan from completely ning the country.
Late developments indicate that the Chinmunists have at last Chaing Kai Shek that should consolidate their present a solid front to Japs out of China.

Buy War Bonds for Keeps
Think it over.
Think it over especially when you get the urge to spend now...when you get the idea that maybe it wouldn't hurt to cash some of those War Bonds.
Because if you let those Bonds go now, or before they reach maturity, you're letting go one sure thing in your future.
United States War Bonds are the best investment in the world. No matter what happens in postwar America, you can always be sure to collect those four dollars for every three you've loaned Uncle Sam, when your Bonds mature.
No job—no income—no other opportunity offers you such certain security, such a chance to protect your own future, or such a chance some day to have some of the things you've always wanted.
Instead of cashing in your Bonds next time you're tempted, buy another just to be on the safe side. Your country needs the money—and you need War Bonds!
