Kuchel Editors and Publishers The Anaheim Gazette has been owned and edited by the same family since 1875. Published every Thursday at 259 East Center Street, Anaheim, California. Phone 2206-2207 Subscription Per Year, $2.00; 2 Years $3.50; 6 Months $1.25 Entered as second-class matter at the Post Office at Anaheim, California, under the Act of March 8, 1879. Anaheim, located in the richest spot on earth, "In the Heart of the Valencia Orange District," is widely known for its beautiful parks, fine schools and churches, and for its other civic improvements and the stability of its citizenship and its business institutions. When you plan your future home of contentment, the one-stop answer is Anaheim! THIS IS IT! PEACE. Not a partial PEACE—not just a hope—not a wish—but the real thing—PEACE! The guns are silent. The planes are grounded. The bombs drop no more. The fighting men rest—not fretfully in fear of tomorrow's battle; theirs is a blessed rest that comes only with the realization that there are no more struggles ahead, no more long ghastly days of ceaseless fighting; no more endless nights of turmoil and torture; no more bleeding, no more dying. Today the overflowing hearts of soldiers and civilians alike rise in one mighty prayer of thanks- derstand was that even though America didn't WANT to fight she could and would, and that, though unprepared, she could get ready with unbelievable speed. What made it worse for the Japs was the fact that when the real tests of naval strength came, they tried to get by with half measures, committing only a part of their fleet in vital engagements, always trying to hold some back in reserve. These half measures helped to bring full defeat—the defeat they so richly deserve. CHINA Today the overflowing hearts of soldiers and civilians alike rise in one mighty prayer of thanksgiving that the cause of right has triumphed. Our nation has risen from the depths of danger into which it was suddenly plunged on that quiet Sunday morning in December nearly four years ago. Four years! Yes, four years as we measure time. But four decades, four centuries to those who have fought and those who have been waiting for their return. Now our men of the land and sea and air no longer look toward Tokyo. Their eyes look toward the place where their hearts and hopes have ever been—home! Home! "This is the Lord's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day which the Lord hath made..." This is the day of PEACE. THE LOONY LORDS If the Japanese war lords have not already started their "big parade" toward the realm of their ancestors via the hari-kari route by the time this reaches print, there is reason to believe that said "big parade" will soon get under way. The loony lords simply haven't any other place to go. They wanted to rule the world so they guessed that December 7, 1941, was the day to begin their all-out drive in that direction. But they guessed wrong. Tojo and his tribe didn't realize it for a while. But now they know. They know, too, that if they don't "shuffle off this mortal coil" by their own hands they are pretty sure it will be done for them when we catch up with them. Back in 1941 the loony lords thought they had a cinch. They knew that America didn't want to fight and that she wasn't prepared. But what they didn't un- What made it worse for the Japs was the fact that when the real tests of naval strength came, they tried to get by with half measures, committing only a part of their fleet in vital engagements, always trying to hold some back in reserve. These half measures helped to bring full defeat—the defeat they have earned at great cost—the defeat they so richly deserve. CHINA In the great joy and excitement that has come with the realization that we are now at PEACE, let us not forget brave, indomitable China who for more than eight years withstood the onslaughts of the Japanese without flinching and without ever once considering a compromise or a surrender. Today China stands sorely wounded, drenched in blood, ravaged by famine, but she STANDS. Her head is unbowed, her sword still held firmly in her hand; her eyes, though saddened by the past, are bright with hope for the future. For the first time since that fateful day of July 7, 1937, China is free from the scourge of Nippon. Actually, however, her sufferings at the hands of the enemy extend back to 1931 when Japan troops moved into Manchuria on a trumped-up "Mukden incident." The heroic battle which the Chinese have waged will ever stand as one of history's greatest masterpieces of courage and unfailing determination. The China of tomorrow will be a greater nation because of it. LENGTH OF THE WAR Our participation in World War II covered a period approximately two and a half times that of our part in World War I. In 1917-18 we were in the conflict 585 days. This time from December 7, 1941, to August 10, 1945—the day the Japs offered to surrender—we were at war 1,343 days. Since September 1, 1939, when hostilities first broke out in Europe, 2,177 days had elapsed—almost six full years.

These laws are made for the protection, not only of motorists, but of others, and if drivers will adhere strictly to the law there would be fewer accidents. Violators should be given the extreme limit of punishment, because they endanger the lives of pedestrians and other drivers when they overstep the safety laws. The city council met in regular session on Thursday night with all members present. President Riley and Secretary Fraser of the local Chamber of Commerce appeared asking for a little help to beautify the flatiron strip of ground at the turn in the state highway just north of the city limits. The signboard announcing this to be the simon pure frostless belt and also giving the latest population figures is located there, but the environs are not of a nature to enthuse the critical passersby. The Chamber of Commerce would like to see a nice lawn kept up there, but as the city finances are a bit low at present the trustees sidestepped.

There is a warm contest on and it is fitting that the voters should know what Mr. Schumacher has accomplished for his district while serving as its representative. As a builder of roads he has made a record of which he may well be proud. He has paved 18 miles of highway in the district in addition to those built from the county and state bond issues. Mr. Schumacher secured 42 per cent of the surplus of $240,000 left in the county fund for the benefit of the third district. As the board's committee-man for the county hospital, is practically the guardian for that institution which shows wonderful business management.

Fawcett, pathologist of the Corrus Experiment Station, is an anatomical method of controlling disease in the earlier stages, is not recommended for advanced stages of the disease, says Dr. Advisor H. E. Wahlberg, who just completed a series of demonstration meetings throughout Orange county. Nor is it a cure. Great care must be taken in applying the new chemical, he warned, because excess applications will penetrate the bark too deep and cause greater damage on the disease itself. In treating psorosis lesions the following procedure is recommended: 1) Rub off loose scales with a fine brush or heavy leather glue without injuring the live bark; 2) pour some of the material into a can or small vessel; employ a paint brush one and two-thirds inches in width, with stles no longer than one and two-thalf inches; 3) after dipping brush into the liquid, drain ink; 4) apply not only to the skin itself but to the bark surface. the part where the brush has touched, it will be too much and will almost certainly cause the death of bark through to the wood. Avoid brushes with very coarse bristles, which permit liberation of the material too rapidly. Extreme care is necessary in applying this material. When properly applied, this material will penetrate and kill only the outer bark and allow the cambium to rebuild a new bark. The old bark will, during the summer and fall following this application, shell off in large pieces, taking the bark lesions with them. Experience in application has indicated that the months of September and October should be avoided, but any other time of year is safe when care is used. The most ideal time is April, May and June. **Investigators for Income Tax Needed** Fortifying Secretary of the Treasury Vinson's announced intention to track down income tax frauds, the Los Angeles branch of the U.S. Civil Service commission has launched an intensive drive to recruit investigators for the Treasury department, it was announced here today by U.S. Civil Service office, Santa Ana.

In treating psoriasis lesions the following procedure is recommended: (1) Rub off loose scales with a fine brush or heavy leather cloth without injuring the live skin; (2) pour some of the material into a can or small vessel; employ a paint brush one and three-half inches in width, with stiles no longer than one and three-half inches; (4) after dipping the brush into the liquid, drain it; (5) apply not only to the skin itself but to the bark surface six inches above and below three inches on the sides of the lesion; (6) in applying the material no portion of the bark should receive more than is just sufficient to wet it from a single stroke of the brush. If any liquid runs down on the bark from the application forms may be obtained at any first or second class post office, and should be filed with the U.S. Civil Service commission representative, at the U.S. Red Scale, Yellow Scale, Mealy Bugs and Tortrix Worms Guess everybody who lives in California carries a map of the state in his head. But the map that R. S. Woglum carries is different. Mr. Woglum's map of California is a war map. The enemy consists of twenty-five or thirty kinds of insects—all the insects that prey on citrus trees and citrus fruits. As head of the Pest Control Bureau of the California Fruit Growers Exchange, Mr. Woglum is chief strategist, so far as the Exchange is concerned, in the growers' never-ending war against insect pests. He and his assistants need to know exactly where these insect enemies are, and anticipate their next moves, in just the way MacArthur and Nimitz have kept track of the Japs. And they do! The job requires unfailing watchfulness, for the insects are even better than Japs when it comes to infiltration. Take the case of Oroville, for instance: Oroville, a small citrus producing area 'way up north, is remarkably free from insect pests. But the Pest Control Bureau keeps an eye on it all the same. One day last winter a Bureau man was making a routine inspection tour up there when suddenly he found two or three orchards infested with red scale. Red scale was new to the Oroville area. But there it was, slyly infiltrating, getting ready to dig in! And as every citrus grower knows, red scale is the worst of all citrus pests. Well, in a case like that, as Woglum pointed out to your reporter last week, the thing to aim for is complete eradication. Once warned, the Oroville growers got organized. The Pest Control man explained what had to be done. He addressed meetings. He helped secure tents and cyanide. Last week he went up to Oroville again, saw the fumigation program started—at the right time and in the right way. Caught so early, red scale should be completely rubbed out at Oroville in a very short time. That's only a single small example. Sunkist growers can certify that the Bureau extends the same vigilance and SCHOOL OF OXFORDS into the aisle. Sturdy enney's. Service or casual Army Russet. 8½-11½.

Caught so early, red scale should be completely rubbed out at Oroville in a very short time. That's only a single small example. Sunkist growers can certify that the Bureau extends the same vigilance and expert help to every California-Arizona citrus area. In each locality the Bureau works not only with Sunkist growers and their associations, but very closely with the State and County Agricultural men. It also cooperates in every possible way with the commercial pest control companies. And through its monthly Pest Control Circular, distributed free to all citrus growers who request it, the Bureau supplies full information on the control measures to be taken in each area throughout the year. The circular serves also as a clearing house of information on control practices. The motor-driven tent puller and the oscillating sprayer, for example, were so well described and publicized in the circular as to stimulate their adoption almost overnight — mighty important in view of the man-power shortage in citrus areas. Sunkist growers regard the Pest Control Bureau as one of the prime benefits provided by the Exchange. It helps them grow more and better fruit, get a better return. Its success is based on the calibre and experience of the Bureau men. Each has had at least 20 years in citrus entomology. Woglum has had 40 years, is one of the world's leading authorities. It's a wonderful work, and like so many other Exchange activities it's possible only through cooperation—through many growers working together. You should be one of them.
