Anaheim — "The City of Beautiful Parks" VOLUME LXXV A Legal Newspaper ANAHEIM We Rise to Remark by JAKE PROCTOR In and About "The Orange Capitol of the World" (The statements or opinions expressed in this column are those of the writer and do not necessarily represent the policy or sentiments of this newspaper, or its publishers.) I like to repeat here occasionally that whatever you read in this column, if you happen to read it, is not intended as the final word and is subject to your approval or take up with a younger companion who might spend a little more freely. Any woman who drinks can drink any man under the table and they usually stay with him until he gets drunk and has to leave, or until he runs out of money. Some women are the world's worst moochers and in most cases they have no means of life. Of all our institutions it never closes. I like to repeat here occasionally that whatever you read in this column, if you happen to read it, is not intended as the final word and is subject to your approval or disapproval. Sometimes I change my own mind about some things I was formerly pretty positive about, so when I'm wrong, or you think I'm wrong, it will be all right with me if you will form your own conclusions. That's what it's for anyway. Of the new class of 300,000 young men eligible for military duty it is estimated that 40 percent will be turned down on account of physical disability. According to Selective Service records 38 out of every 100 men between 18 and 36, supposedly the most healthy age group, have been rejected. In California alone 370,000 young men have been rejected for the same reason. Those figures do not include the health record of the girls and women which probably would be no better, at least. What percentage of eligible young men in Germany and Russia do you think are physically unfit for military duty?—I don't know for sure myself, but my guess is that not more than five percent. We take excellent care of our livestock in this country, but our people are among the most neglected in the world. If you're a politician you can make many more votes by keeping a farmer's cow in good health than by taking an interest in the health of his son or daughter. In fact if you try to improve the health of the family you get accused of interfering with his private affairs. Had you ever thought about this situation? FAN LETTER NO. 2 The following note comes in the mail from the Rev. D. Howard Dow, former rector of St. Michael's Episcopal church, now acting in the same capacity at Pacific Grove, California: Jake (Rise to Remark) Proctor, Care Anaheim Gazette. Have just received the Gazette for February 22, and find your "colm" has been restored to circulation. Missing it the previous week I was losing sleep wondering what had become of it. Now take up with a younger companion who might spend a little more freely. Any woman who drinks can drink any man under the table and they usually stay with him until he gets drunk and has to leave, or until he runs out of money. Some women are the world's worst moochers and in many cases they have more money than the man they are taking drinks from. That's why the army stepped in. They report that some of the soldiers were spending all their money buying drinks for women, and in some cases were being "rolled" by the girls for all they had in their billfolds. Another reason, the military says, is to protect the men from venereal diseases, reportedly on the increase. But the burden is all on the bartenders. They already had their hands full trying to keep under-age girls from buying intoxicating drinks, by themselves or with somebody else, many times with their own mothers, and now they are going to have to be nursemaid to that great army of lonely women who have been in the habit of making the rounds of the bars every night. The military order does not affect the women of the armed servives. According to reports there were introduced at this session of the legislature something like 3,500 bills for new laws or amendments to existing laws. Of this number 167 referred to fish and game legislation alone. No less than a dozen or two are designed to throttle the Press and put the newspapers out of business, if possible. There are always a few politicians who get mat at their home town newspapers and when they get to the legislature they try to get a law passed that will put their paper out of business, or seriously cripple its operation. If these soreheads only knew it by the time they get their newspapers put out of business free elections will be a thing of the past and they will no longer be warming a chair in the state's temple of justice. What the other 3,000-odd bills are for I doubt if anybody knows except the authors. Some of the bills will be enacted into law and put on the books that go into the archives to be forgotten. As far as the public is concerned they will never know what the laws are until they incidentally trespass one of them. The American public school system has been, perhaps, the most important single factor in the creation and development of our American way of life. Of all our institutions it comes closest to the lives and homes of the American people. It is the keystone of our Democracy. "No one can foretell the future of American education." This much, however, is certain. Our public schools will play no inconsiderable part in the readjustment of the social, political and economic life of the nation. Indeed they may perchance influence the lives of all the peoples of the world. "No less certain is it that the accomplishments of the schools, and of the school people, will depend upon the sympathetic aid, support and cooperation they receive from the public. And that will be influenced by an intelligent interest in, and an adequate knowledge of, the aims, purposes and achievements of, the modern school. Here in California an opportunity of obtaining information as to just what is being done in the local schools is afforded each year in the observance of Public Schools Week, to begin this year on April 23." Charles Albert Adams, former member of the State Board of Education and founder of the observance, is State chairman of the Public Schools Week Committee, and Vaughn MacCaughey, editor of Sierra Educational News, is secretary. ATTEND MEETING Mrs. Opal Walters, Mrs. Bessie Peatzz, Mrs. Minnie Reagan, Mrs. Martha Russell, Mrs. Mollie Claes, Mrs. Emma Daniels and Mary Hund attended the department council meeting of the Veterans of Foreign War's Auxiliary last Sunday. The meeting was held in Patriotic hall, Los Angeles. New Supply of Natio Mexico to Aid in Far The Agricultural Extension Service reports that recruitment of Mexican Nationals for agricultural work is well along in Mexico, and first trainload of 850 men left The following note comes in the mail from the Rev. D. Howard Dow, former rector of St. Michael's Episcopal church, now acting in the same capacity at Pacific Grove, California: Jake (Rise to Remark) Proctor, Care Anaheim Gazette. Have just received the Gazette for February 22, and find your "colm" has been restored to circulation. Missing it the previous week I was losing sleep wondering what had become of it. Now I know. While there are times when the scent of "boloney" can be detected, yet I find the "colm" very helpful and trust you will keep it up. It must distress some of the old fuddy-duddles sometimes, but that's what we need! Regards to all the folks at the Gazette. Cordially yours, D. HOWARD DOW Now the bar keepers have another problem on their hands. The military authorities have decreed that unescorted women are not allowed in the saloons after six o'clock in the evening. But instead of making them subject to arrest if they go into the bar rooms by themselves, they put the burden of keeping them out on the bartenders, and you can imagine what that means. If a woman wants a drink, especially if she has already had a few snorts, she becomes the most unmanageable thing in the world. She defies the military authorities, the law, and the bartenders and causes everybody out and demands a drink. Because she is a "lady" the bartender cannot take her by the seat of the pants and throw her out as they do men customers who become obstreperous. In some cases the girls drag along any old scapegoat who will take them in and buy them a drink, and then try to "ditch" him if they can hit by the time they get their newspapers put out of business free elections will be a thing of the past and they will no longer be warming a chair in the state's temple of justice. What the other 2,000-odd bills are for I doubt if anybody knows except the authors. Some of the bills will be enacted into law and put on the books that go into the archives to be forgotten. As far as the public is concerned they will never know what the laws are until they advertantly trespass one of them, in which case their ignorance is no excuse. I have never held a public office, and I never expect to; but if I should happen to become an assemblyman I think I would spend the entire term trying to cause the repeal of as many laws as possible. The average layman has very little regard for the laws affecting human behavior, on the theory that there wasn't any excuse for most of them in the first place. I don't like to receive anonymous letters but a Los Angeles subscribed who failed to sign his name, writes in to agree with me when I said it might be a good idea to eliminate this column for about six months—twice a year. He says: "I think you got something there, especially with the paper shortage," which indicates that while he apparently does not like this column he reads it anyway. That is the highest compliment that can be paid to a newspaper man. Since I do not know who to thank I want to express here my appreciation for this reader's interest and comment. San Francisco has long been called "the New York of the West," a title it gained on account of its sophistication and cosmopolitan atmosphere before Los Angeles emerged from the status of New Supply of Nation Mexico to Aid in Far The Agricultural Extension Service reports that recruitment of Mexican Nationals for agricultural work is well along in Mexico, and the first trainload of 850 men left the city of Irapuato on February 22nd. The first trainload of workers arrived early this week and disembarked fifty men for use in Orange County citrus, with the remainder going to neighboring counties. A second trainload of workers left Mexico on February 26th. A regular schedule of one train every three days is planned during the month of March and subsequent months for distribution through the various states of the middle and far west. The first three trains are destined for agricultural work in California, says George Wells, manager of the Orange County Farm Labor Office. All federal and state officials of the Mexican government have given splendid cooperation to the United States representatives in arranging re-contracting of workers for 1945 operations, according to William Anglim of the War Food Administration. B. H. Crocheron, director of the University of California Agricultural Extension Service, says, "It is fortunate that arrangements have been completed so early in the season for the recontracting or workers. Even though about 20,000 Mexican Nationals remained in California during the winter, more workers are urgently needed to harvest citrus fruits and vegetables now ready for market and to prepare for an in- The Orange Capital of the World AHEIM GAZETE Est. 1870 In The Heart of the Valencia Orange District ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, MARCH 1, 1945 RED CROSS DRIVE UNDER Annual Observance of Public Schools Week by Masons Starts April 23 FRANCISCO—The twentieth annual observance of schools Week will begin on Monday, April 23, according to a proclamation issued by Gilbert C.

While here they stayed with Senator Kuchel's mother, Mrs. Henry Kuchel on South Claudina street. MOTHER DIES Funeral services were held last Saturday in Long Beach for Mrs. Norma S. Reams, mother of Mrs. Eva Drennon of this city. Diamond Jubilee of Presbyterian Church Recalls Early Anaheim History In the past 75 years the First Presbyterian church of Anaheim has grown from a small congregation of nine charter members to 900 members and from a small church on Los Angeles, Claudina and Cypress streets to a large unit on West Broadway; a unit that will be completed as soon as possible after the war when a magnificent sanctuary will be built alongside the present Sunday school building. During the 75 years of its organization the church has been served by 18 ordained ministers and 54 ordained elders. The first minister was Rev. L. P. Webber who served from 1870 until 1874. He came to Anaheim upon the request of 24 residents of Anaheim and vicinity and arrived here on June 30, 1870. On March 6 a Presbyterian church had been organized by the district secretary for Home Missions with the following members: Mr. and Mrs. P. C. McKinnle, Mr. and Mrs. John Y. Anderson, Mr. and Mrs. William Patterson, Mrs. A. Higgins, Alexander Gardener and Susan Gardener. Ruling elders, P. C. McKinnle and William Patterson were ordained on March 16, 1870. The first child to be baptized in the new church was Margaret, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Higgins. In 1905 it was turned around and then faced Cypress and Claudina streets and at the same time we considerably enlarged. In 1929 the church was abondoned for a new building site at 310 West Broadway street and the Sunday school building; the first building in a large unit, was erected. The church proper will be built as soon as possible after the war and present plans call for a $100,000 structure. The longest pastorate, 16 years was held by the Rev. Thomas Walker who is now pastor at the San Clemente Community Presbyterian church and the second longest pastorate was held by Rev Frederick W. Mitchell who served from 1905 until 1916. The present pastor, Rev Stanley F. George has been here for seven years. During the last seven years the congregation has increased by more than 700 members. The church has been active in community enterprises including initiating the Annual Vacation church school and lending in pastor to the Religious Instruction on Released Time. The church also instigated the Bible-Book-on-the-Month plan of congregation; Bible reading that proved so effective that it was adopted by the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church. The twentieth annual observance of schools Week will begin on Monday, April 23, according to a proclamation issued by Gilbert C. DeFord-adding, Grand Master of California, who said in statement: American public school has been perhaps, the important single factor in education This much is certain Our public will play no inconsiderable role in the readjustment of the critical and economic life Indeed they may influence the lives of peoples of the world.

Groups of farmers have been meeting with the Agricultural Extension Service in Orange County to discuss the most effective utilization of this source of farm labor. Former Gazette Editor Severely Injured in Battle First reported "missing in action" it was revealed recently that Sgt. Myron Smith of Anaheim, former editor of the Anaheim Gazette, is now in a hospital as a result of severe injuries received in battle in Germany. His uncle, W. C. Peale of Santa Ana received a letter from him disclosing that he is in a cast, "just about from neck to heels" but had one arm free with which he could write. He was apparently injured by a burst of shrapnel while fighting with the infantry. The explosion tore off his clothing and identification tags, he wrote. His wife and children are making their home in Brighton, Colo., while awaiting his return. Sgt. Smith made his home in Santa Ana with Mr. and Mrs. Peale while attending Santa Ana Junior college in 1940. PICNIC HELD The Montana State Society of Long Beach held its annual picnic in Bixby Park last Sunday. 800 Citrus Growers Attend Annual Institute at Anaheim H. S. Last Friday 800 citrus growers of Orange County attending the Annual Citrus Institute recently at Anaheim were advised on the best methods of selecting and planting new trees in the old orchard where replacements are being made. Many trees are being replaced at this season of the year where trees are removed because of injury by gophers, scaly bark disease, gummosis, or even from old age. Precautions were outlined by K. M. Smoyer, and orchard charts shown by H. E. Wahlberg, both of the Agricultural Extension Service. The important factor of successful replants as presented by the two farm advisors of sucby the two farm advisors included: 1. Select one year old trees propagated from scaly bark free buds. 2. Secure the best vigorous trees—second rate trees are generally disappointing. 3. Dig a large hole at least four feet across and two feet deep and fill in with good surface dirt mix in some thoroughly rotted manure. Settle thoroughly with wa-ter before planting. 4. It is desirable to cut roots of adjacent old trees, thus isolating the young trees from root competition six feet on every side. 5. Soil fumigation is not generally essential, but where diseased roots are present, disinfection is desirable. 6. Set tree so that bud union is two inches above normal surface of ground. In tight soils, a small mound four or five inches high will help to prevent gummosis. 7. Follow up with irrigation and fertilization—details of which are given in a specially prepared bulletin now available from the farm advisor's office at Santa Ana. DAUGHTER BORN Lt. and Mrs. Ralph Comstock are the parents of a daughter born to them on Feb. 22 at Newport News, Virginia. The infant weighed 8 pounds and 11 ounces at birth. Maternal grandmother is Mrs. Eileah Bennet of Anaheim and paternal grandmother is Mrs Emma Comstock of Anaheim. ZETTE The Citrus Industry's NEWSpaper MARCH 1, 1945 TEN PAGES NUMBER 23 UNDER WAY TODAY *Red Cross War Fund 'Kick-Off' Dinner Held at Elks Club; 300 Workers Attend A complete picture of the many and varied services that the Red Cross gives to our fighting men overesas was given in a series of vivid word pictures Tuesday night at the Elk's clubhouse when the Anaheim Red Cross "kickoff" dinner was held for 300 workers who today started an intense whirlwind campaign to raise the local $28,500 quota in the 1945 War Fund Drive. At the same time A. J. Schutte, General chairman, gave the volunteer workers final instructions and urged that every effort be made to raise the quota by this Saturday night. "I can think of nothing that would be more heartening to our men on the fighting fronts than Need for Quick Red Cross Campaign Says A. J. Schutte With the start of the American Red Cross War Fund drive today A. J. Schutte, general chairman, reminded local residents that "YOUR Red Cross is facing the greatest task in its entire history and each person must do his part if the Anaheim quota of $28,500 is to be met. "It is costing 21 times as much to operate the Red Cross now as it did before Pearl Harbor and as it is the responsibility of the People, everyone will realize what their contribution should be to meet the requirements," Mr. Schutte said. Urgging everyone to buy as many "seconds" of Red Cross as possible he quoted the 1945 campaign slogan, "$6 a second will keep the Red Cross at HIS side." That amount of money is required each second to keep the Red Cross functioning. Mr. Schutte is stressing the need for a quick campaign and hopes that the goal will be reached by Saturday night. He said that it is expected that everyone in Anaheim will be called upon within the next three days. Those people who are not going to be home can the Anaheim Red Cross "kickoff" dinner was held for 300 workers who today started an intense whirlwind campaign to raise the local $28,500 quota in the 1945 War Fund Drive. At the same time A. J. Schutte, General chairman, gave the volunteer workers final instructions and urged that every effort be made to raise the quota by this Saturday night. "I can think of nothing that would be more heartening to our men on the fighting fronts than the knowledge that the quota was raised quickly and wholeheartedly by the ones at home," he said. Alva L. Shafer, two years overseas as American Red Cross Regional Director in the Italian and Tunisian theater of war, gave a detailed account of the many services performed by the field service including the importance of the club mobile where doughnuts and coffee are passed out, hospital service and club service in camps and foreign cities. "Some of the clubs are palatial mansions in cities and others are shacks on a base at front, but everywhere the men look to the Red Cross for the comforts that mean so much to them," he said. He stressed the fact that the Red Cross "gives and does not sell" to the men whether it be cigarettes or sweaters, "Many wrong stories get started that have no foundation in fact," he emphasized. He then told how a slight charge is made in the overseas "snack bars" but it is done because the army has requested it in order to be able to demand an "accountability" of food from the Red Cross. In this way a closer check on vital shipping supplies can be made and it also keeps out a carelessness in handling supplies that might otherwise creep in at times. In telling how the Red Cross representatives are on every front he said that at the present time there are 8 representatives at Iwo Jima and it is they who see to it that the men get "smokes" and other comforts. Lt. Rocky McCormick, of the Army Air Force, wearer of the Purple Heart, the Air Medal and many campaign stripes, told how a bombardier sees it in relation to the vital part played by the Red Cross. There would be many an added man suffering from war nerves if it weren't for the Red Cross, he said and added that "war nerves are worse than scrap iron" and the Red Cross representatives relieve the tension more than anyone else over there."

He said that it is expected that everyone in Anaheim will be called upon within the next three days. Those people who are not going to be home can facilitate matters greatly if they will bring in their contributions to the local chapter headquarters on East Center street or arrange to leave their donations with some neighbor who in turn can give it to the solicitor who will call. "It is the return calls that put the strain on the workers who so willingly are giving of their time," he added. Mr. Schutte disclosed that advanced gift contributions are coming in very generously and already are showing an average increase of 30% over last year. More than $4,000 has been contributed so far. From March 1944 until March 1945 the National American Red Cross has handled 14,000,000 communications concerning service men; packed 10,800,000 prisoners of war food parcels in Red Cross centers; collected 5,000,000 pints of blood; given assistance to 5,000,-000 servicemen, ex-servicemen and their families; shown 150,-000 movies in hospitals; operated 921 overseas clubs; trained 250,-000 servicemen in first aid and water safety and collected 15,000,-000 articles made for the armed forces by the Junior Red Cross. This enviable record will go on and will be increased in 1945 if YOU DO YOUR PART. When in need of job printing call the Anaheim Gazette, Phone 2206. "We'll be there in a minute." Lt. Rocky McCormick, of the Army Air Force, wearer of the Purple Heart, the Air Medal and many campaign stripes, told how a bombardier sees it in relation to the vital part played by the Red Cross. There would be many an added man suffering from war nerves if it weren't for the Red Cross, he said and added that "war nerves are worse than scrap iron" and the Red Cross representatives relieve the tension more than anyone else over there." Many other interesting points were brought out by Lt. McCormick in a brief dialogue skit at which time he was interrogated by Lloyd Loveland, assistant field director at the S. A. A. A. B. Loveland emphasized that the great and most important phase of Red Cross work is just getting started now that the war is rising to a climax and said that its greatest work will only begin when the war is over. He was referring to the part Red Cross will play in the rehabilitation of the service men. The speakers were introduced by Ross Lee Laird, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce and master of ceremonies for the evening. Special guests for the occasion were Mrs. R. A. Marsden, vice-chairman of Northern Orange county Red Cross; Mrs. Margaret Parker, executive secretary of Northern Orange county; George Osburn, chairman of the War Fund drive for Northern Orange county; Mrs. D. M. Redmond, chairman of public information for Southern Orange county and Miss Iva Gosechalk, nursing chairman for Orange county. Besides the speakers, Ross Laird and Mr. and Mrs. Schutte, those seated at the head table were Mrs. Helen Barton McLaine, Mr. and Mrs. Ben Kaulbars, Mrs. Lloyd Loveland, Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Nelson and Dr. and Mrs. C. P. Tompkins.
