When you plan your future home of contentment, the one-stop answer is Anaheim! DAD'S DAY Dad will have his day on Sunday, June 17. And the man named as the "Father of the Year" for 1945 is none other than President Harry S. Truman. For the past three years American generals have had that distinction. General MacArthur was chosen in 1942, General Eisenhower in 1943, and General Mark Clark last year. In peace time Dad usually received a new tie, a pair of socks, or some other such item from the family in observance of his day. But in these times present Dad with War Bonds as a gift. This "Mighty Seventh" will help to bring the fighting fathers of our armed forces home to their loved ones sooner. Sentiment on Dad's Day is natural and proper, but let us express that sentiment in the way that will do the most to re-unite with their families the tens of thousands of the Nation's fathers who are staking their very lives in the defense of their homes and country. California's citrus products plants furnish two million pounds of pectin annually toward the wartime food and pharmaceutical needs of the United Nations.

Present: Directors Rugero, Cargill, Whitaker, Hansen, and McFadden. Secretary Blennerhassett read the minutes of the last regular meeting which were approved as read. After due deliberations the chamber decided to celebrate the glorious Fourth in a patriotic manner and in time-honored fashion. Col. John P. Irish of San Francisco, president of the State Chamber of Commerce, has been invited to make the oration. An answer from him was expected yesterday, but up to the last mail none had arrived. The following committees were appointed to attend to the celebration: Executive committee — Messrs. Rogers, Cargill, Whitaker, McFadden and Brown. Collections—W. T. Brown, L. Goldwater, J. J. Everharty, Frank Steadman, A. M. Williams. Invitations were extended the chambers of Los Angeles and Santa Ana to attend the festivities.

Father Caballeria's horse became unmanageable as the reverend gentleman was about to get into his rig in front of the post office on Monday afternoon, and succeeded in overturning the Like the passing of the old year and the birth of a new one, the Anaheim Board of Trade faded quietly out of existence Monday night, and its functions were assumed by a new organization to be known as the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. The last meeting of Anaheim's Board of Trade was held in the board rooms of the Hotel Valencia. Preceding the meeting was a banquet. The attendance was large, about sixty business and professional men being present. This new name, Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, is deemed more inclusive than the old name, and permits anyone to become a member if he has a civic spirit and wants to see the city grow. Harry D. Riley was appointed temporary chairman of the new Chamber of Commerce. The feature of the evening in the way of a visitor was the presence of J. S. Joplice, field secretary of the southern California district of the Better America Federation of California. The Republican national convention which was held in Chicago last week made a wise selection of candidates when they selected Senator Warren G. Harding and Gov. Calvin Coolidge as their standard bearers. Judge Howard, president of the Republican club, has called a meeting for tonight at the Chamber of Commerce rooms for the purpose of making preparations for an active campaign. Capt.

The savage, suicidal fighting on Kinawa and Luzon might be considered by the Japs to contribute to that psychological goal so discourage Americans at some that a peace far short of conditional surrender would look enticing. The sudden change in Tokyo radio reports, admitting the crippling havoc our sur-fortress raids on Japan cities, is perfectly into such a pattern, assigned to lure us into an easy, naive peace. On that score Gunnison dearest he considers the United States is sound asleep to the dangerous situation in the Far East that can grow out of this war. If there is another war after this one, it will start in Asia," he maintains, "and Jap propaganda has left one thing in the mind of every Asiatic—Asia for the Asiics!" Other official observers agree that Japan will come again as soon as she is able—who point to the Shinto teaching of every Jap child that Japan must subjugate the 10,000 Nations and the four seas. We must be "rough, tough and realistic" cautions the war reporter. "It may not be pleasant to have to go into Japan with a club—for nobody can be friender than a Jap, right up to the time he stabs you... but the only way to make them understand what they can't do again is to show force." Rev. Father Caballeria's horse became unmanageable as the reverend gentleman was about to get into his rig in front of the post office on Monday afternoon, and succeeded in overturning the vehicle. Nothing serious occurred, and after righting the vehicle with the assistance of bystanders he proceeded on his way as if nothing had happened.

It took a jury in Judge Pierce's courtroom yesterday just two minutes to find Frank Steadman innocent of the charge of cruelty to animals, which had been preferred against him by Mrs. J. J. Everharty for killing a dog belonging to her. The dog had bitten Fred Crist in the leg Tuesday as he was walking down Center street, taking a piece out of his pants and inflicting a wounded that Dr. Bullard had later to cauterize.

With its elaborate communications system requiring the largest communications personnel of any combat plane, it is practically a flying radio laboratory. Final Services Held for Mrs. Olive Wade, 78 Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at Backs, Campbell and Kaulbärs chapel for Mrs. Olive Wade, 78, who passed away last Thursday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Eva L. Houts of 401 West North street. She had lived in Covina for the past 15 years, coming to Anaheim only four months ago. Surviving her is one son, Melvin W. Wade of Paoina, Colo.; two daughters, Mrs. Vera A. Cooke of Covina, and Mrs. Eva L. Houts of Anaheim; six grandchildren, two great-grandchildren and one brother, Dr. P. M. Hargrove of Los Angeles. Why Telephones are Scarce America’s largest sky weapon is the B-29 Superfortress. With its elaborate communications system requiring the largest communications personnel of any combat plane, it is practically a flying radio laboratory. This and other war communications equipment is being made in factories that in peace-time supply civilian telephone needs. That is why there is a shortage and why many people are now waiting for home telephone service. If you are among those who are waiting, we want you to know that your patient understanding is a big help. And we will do everything we can to shorten the delay.
