MEMBER WEEKLY NEWSPAPER ASS'N OF ORANGE CO. — S.C.N.F.A. HENRY KUCHEL, EDITOR and PUBLISHER 1887-1935 Mrs. Henry Kuchel — Theodore B. 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! LABOR DAY This first post-war Labor Day should be the proudest in the history of the labor movement, and in its celebration all Americans should proudly join. For Labor Day falls in a time of victorious peace because all Americans—rich and poor, boss and employee, gentile, Jew and Negro—poured the sweat and blood of free men into outfighting and outproducing the mechanized armies and regimented labor of our enemies. In fighting and working side by side, Americans learned to cooperate understandingly, for their burdens and problems proved a more mature outlook as the great and common tasks of the peace are begun. If this be true, then our Labor Day of 1945 marks a most significant milestone in the nation's progress. END OF LEND-LEASE Uncle Sam is back in the role he played after World War I—that of Uncle Shylock. It seems that no matter how much the "rich" Uncle does for his relatives they simply aren't satisfied. Last week when President Truman brought Lend-Lease to an end after we had spent some $40 billion to aid other nations in the alternative to temporary disruptions of education throughout America That time, happily, is past. Never has a generation America's youth faced a more responsible adulthood than is by students who return to this fall. Never have our educators had greater responsibility training boys and girls for duties of citizenship and leadership. Ahead lies an unpredictable and dangerous world. It is not only for the future the students as individuals for the future of this nation the world's greatest citadel of man freedom, that the school ring. JAPAN REAPS THE WHIRLWIND Of all the whirlwinds of ter which the treachery and egotism of Japanese was have brought upon their perhaps the most stupid was use of a rigidly controlled to lie to the world—and to own people as well. A terrible whirlwind was riven from Japanese use of their papers and radio to lie to the world about their "peaceful tensions" while they prepared murderous Pearl Harbor. That whirlwind came in might of an outraged American culminating in the awful punishment of the atomic bomb. Now another whirlwind been reaped in the fury of Japanese people on learning their government used the trollled press to lie to them. They had been told that M was a glorious Jap victory, actually it broke the airpower the Jap fleet. They were a in its celebration all Americans should proudly join. For Labor Day falls in a time of victorious peace because all Americans—rich and poor, boss and employee, gentle, Jew and Negro—poured the sweat and blood of free men into outfighting and outproducing the mechanized armies and regimented labor of our enemies. In fighting and working side by side, Americans learned to cooperate understandingly, for their burdens and problems proved amazingly similar. Abnormal war taxes that harried the company treasurer also harried the employee, as withholding taxes shrunk his pay-check and his living costs rose. Governmental regulations, confusing and conflicting, hampered farmers in their enormous production role. They hampered transportation, as when the Department of Justice accused the railroads of antitrust law violation for procedures in full accordance with Interstate Commerce Commission policies—and congressmen, alarmed at the prospect of a transportation snarl, began the fight for the Bulwinkle bill, a measure to slash the red tape of dual control of the carriers. Bureaucratic controls hampered businesses and unions in their relations, to such degree that some regrettable strikes resulted more from governmental interference than from friction between management and workers. It seems reasonable to hope that comradeship in the trials and achievements of the perilous war years has drawn all groups in America closer in mutual respect and tolerance—has given them all LITTLE JACK HORNER C. W. DORSETT Even in the U. S. A. don't hunt without END OF LEND-LEASE Uncle Sam is back in the role he played after World War I—that of Uncle Shylock. It seems that no matter how much the "rich" Uncle does for his relatives they simply aren't satisfied. Last week when President Truman brought Lend-Lease to an end after we had spent some $40 billion to aid other nations in the fight against totalitarianism (we got back about $5 billion in reverse Lend-Lease), one might have thought that there would be a chorus of "Thank you" from the countries he had helped. But what happened? Well, the British who had received the lion's share of the aid, said they simply couldn't believe that we would stop sending them free supplies at this time. Yet they knew that Lend-Lease was a wartime measure and could hardly expect us to continue it indefinitely. We can well appreciate the financial worries Britain has at this time. The war has cost her plenty. Her future outlook is not bright. It is true that she performed the world a great service by holding out against the Germans in 1940 and 1941. But we think we have pretty well paid our share of that debt not only in billions of dollars, but in the million or more casualties suffered among America's fighting men. What is more: the rise of Hitler to a place where he threatened the world was largely due to the indifference of Britain, just as the rise of militaristic Japan was permitted by the indifference of the United States. It should be remembered that Lend-Lease money doesn't come out of a limitless reserve fund, but that this nation is going ever deeper into debt to provide such aid—and the American taxpayer must foot the bill. A continuation of the thankless "We-want-more!" chorus will do more to revive isolationism in America than anything else ever could. FOR WHOM THE BELL RINGS For many a young man fresh out of uniform, for boys and girls who were toiling long hours in shipyards and war plants a few weeks ago, and for the customary crop of school-age youngsters, ten thousand California school bells will soon ring out. Now another whirlwind been reaped in the fury of Japanese people on learning their government used their trolled press to lie to them. They had been told that M was a glorious Jap victory, actually it broke the airpower the Jap fleet. They were able that the "invincible" Jap held California, Oregon Washington at the very time army was being blasted but surely from the territory had overrun. It is little wonder, with so record of lying exposed, that Japanese rioted, turned at the army, and refused to be the government when first to announce the truth—that was licked and through, and everything else gone. Dictatorships must lie tions to rise to power-throttle free expression. Yetators, however absolute power, cannot fool "all o people all of the time". The whirlwind of disillusion and confidence is inevitable. An honestly free press best policy—even for a dictator.

To the people of the U.S., however, nothing comes miraculous than that we have won the war at Japan without invading her land. Until August 6, 1945, the atomic bomb fell and the ages, there was little to believe that costly landing our infantrymen would not be made on Japan proper. But now General Macaulay has "invaded" Nippon underditions far different from we long thought would play when our troops arrived instead of having to go under heavy fire, and fight every inch of the ground, Iwo Jima and Okinawa, then just walked in and took over.

A good sound it will be!—a most welcome one for millions of parents and educators who have been disturbed at the impairment of our public and private school programs that was one of the inevitable evils of the war period.

Despite the fact that the day is Admission day, Prof. Keren informs us that the school will organize at that time. The corps of teachers will be: Central school, Prof. Keren, principal; Miss Roberts, vice principal; Mrs. Horr, intermediate; Miss Johnson and Miss Kerlin, primary department. West school, Prof. Evans, principal; Miss Burton, intermediate and Miss Foster, primary. The Katella school will be taught by Miss Glasscock. The new Fruit Growers bank at Fullerton opened for business on Monday. The principal feature of the day being a string of depositors who kept Mr. Balcom busy securing their deposits. We hear the deposits the first day were $12,000. The bank has a good field, and ought to do a good business from the start. Mr. Staley has gathered nine tons of prunes from less than three-quarters of an acre of ground in his Placentia ranch. The crop is early this season as compared with last. The first pick last year being on September 2, while this year the crop is already dried. Mr. Staley has noticed quite a number of his walnuts dropping. This also indicating an early season and he finds the nuts to be large and of uniform excellence. He also tells us that he rarely gets his Gazette County Treasurer J.

Now another whirlwind has been reaped in the fury of the Japanese people on learning that their government used the concluded press to lie to them, too. They had been told that Midway was a glorious Jap victory, when qually it broke the airpower of Jap fleet. They were assured at the "invincible" Jap army and California, Oregon and Washington at the very time the war was being blasted slowly surely from the territories it overrun. It is little wonder, with such a word of lying exposed, that the Japanese rioted, turned against army, and refused to believe government when first it had announce the truth—that Japan is licked and through, "face" and everything else gone. Dictatorships must lie to nations to rise to power—must bottle free expression. Yet dictors, however absolute their power, cannot fool "all of the people all of the time". The final girlwind of disillusion and lost confidence is inevitable. An honestly free press is the best policy—even for a dictator! MACARTHUR "INVADES" PAN In every major war there are events so remarkable they are passed as miracles. One such event was the French stand on Marne river in 1914 that seeded Paris. In 1940 the British escape from Dunkirk was anothing. China's survival against Japan and Russia's defense of Stalrad—these, too, were miracles. To the people of the United States, however, nothing could be more miraculous than the fact that we have won the war against Pan without invading her homeland. Until August 6, 1945, when the atomic bomb fell and shook ages, there was little reason believe that costly landings by infantrymen would not have be made on Japan proper. But now General MacArthur "invaded" Nippon under contons far different from those long thought would prevail when our troops arrived there. Instead of having to go ashore after heavy fire, and fight for very inch of the ground, as on Jima and Okinawa, the boys it walked in and took over.

Misses Pauline Nemetz and Edith Bates, two of the bright girls who graduated at the school here last trem, have gone to Los Angeles to enter the normal. Alice Bates, who has attended the normal for a year, returns with them to resume her studies. Mrs. Ledger is down from Los Angeles on a visit to relatives here and was one of a party in which were Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Bailey and Miss Zelma Bailey that took in the circus yesterday at Santa Ana. Sam Federman and family have been in town during the week, the old man running the store while Charlie is in San Francisco blowing himself to a new fall stock of goods. Sarah used to be our girl, but since living in Los Angeles a few months has grown so much that she has given us the shake. Miss Adele Mossenan, who has been at home from the normal for some time past, has returned to Los Angeles to resume her studies for the fall term. Miss Addie Wallop, her classmate, returns to Los Angeles as soon as she recovers from a slight indisposition. W. R. Harker thinks the following is good enough to appear in this column: "There is a paper published at Hot Springs, Ark., named the "Arkansaw Thomas Cat." Its motto is "God help the rich, the poor can beg." It declares that it is a paper of the people, to be paid for by the people. It advocates, "One country, one flag and one wife at a time, and declares it is in favor of the elevation of horse thieves and public morals.

Instead of having to go ashore over heavy fire and fight for every inch of the ground, as on Jima and Okinawa, the boys walked in and took over. Some Americans have criticized the use of the atomic bomb in inducing the enemy. But because of that bomb thousands of young Americans will return one instead of remaining out here under white crosses. The task of occupying the Land the Rising Sun does not promotate easy or of short duranage, however. Japan must be built—not only physically, but virtually. We must stay there all that nation is no longer a seat to world peace. That time I will not come when the Japs are relieved of their weapons, but why when the influence of the militarists has been completely removed and the people taught their responsibilities in international relations. For the sake of humanity we must do the job thoroughly.

SCHULTZ FURNISHING Anaheim's Foremost Furniture 301 West Center Street Open Evenings for Your Convenience County Treasurer J. C. Joplin received word a day or two ago that a lion was rampaging through his part of the county, consequently the guardian of the county's money turned the office over to his assistant's shoulders, grabbed a gun and went after the animal. Joplin is an old and mighty hunter, and if the lion had advance information of his coming it would probably hike for safer pastures, or follow the example of Davy Crockett's cow. Harry D. Riley and Malcolm Fraser, president and secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, attended the meeting of the Southern California Commercial Secretaries held at Santa Ana Saturday. The city has secured $1900 in part payment for its orange crop on the west side 20-acre property from the Anaheim Fruit association with more to follow, which will total about $4000.

Guinea Pig in the Kitchen Every so often, while snooping around the Sunkist Building to pick up material for these columns, your reporter gets stopped in the 5th floor corridor by a lady in an apron. "Come in and be a guinea pig," she says. Taking your reporter by the arm, she leads him into the Sunkist kitchen, a bright, shining, spotless place decorated in ivory and green — quite a shock after the sober tones and businesslike atmosphere of the rest of the building. "Sit down," says the lady in the apron, and brings a serving of lemon pie, orange cake, orange salad or lemon sherbet. "Try this," she commands. Often it is not just one cake or sherbet, but three or four that you are ordered to sample: You take a mouthful of this, then a mouthful of that, and compare them, while members of the Sunkist Home Economics staff await your verdict. If something doesn't taste so good, they make you say sol! That's the whole point. The job of the Sunkist kitchen is to create new practical recipes using California citrus fruits, and to work out fresh, interesting variations on the old ones. That takes a lot of experimenting. Only after a recipe has been tried out successfully again and again is it finally approved. But to a citrus grower, the important part is what happens next: News of the new recipe, with complete description — illustrated, often, with drawings or appetizing photographs — goes out to 2700 food writers all over the United States. This list includes every noted home economics editor in the country. It includes 300 radio home economists. These 2700 women have a following that runs into many, many millions. A large number of these home economists know Miss Essie L. Elliott; head of the Home Economics Division, personally. Through many years of friendly contact, Miss Elliott has established the prestige of Sunkist so thoroughly that the entire home economics field looks to Sunkist for guidance and information on anything that has to do with citrus fruit. So, when Sunkist brings out a new lemon pie or orange salad it is worthwhile! EXCITED TOO WHEN YOU SEE THE AND ACTUAL DEMONSTRATION OF THE Laundromat Automatic Washer AND SEPT. 1... 10 A.

Anaheim's Foremost Furnishers Street Phone 3464 nings for Your Convenience by Appointment YOU'LL WASH LIKE THIS A large number of these home economists know Miss Essie L. Elliott, head of the Home Economics Division, personally. Through many years of friendly contact, Miss Elliott has established the prestige of Sunkist so thoroughly that the entire home economics field looks to Sunkist for guidance and information on anything that has to do with citrus fruit. So, when Sunkist brings out a new lemon pie or orange salad, it is enthusiastically promoted throughout the nation. When the sugar shortage came along, the Home Economics Division immediately sent out recipes requiring little or no sugar, and, in no time at all, had the food writers of America going to bat for Sunkist growers—showing America's housewives how they could keep on serving citrus dishes, and make the natural sugar in oranges offset the lack of other sweets. This summer Miss Elliott and her staff have had the editors going to bat again—on small oranges. And, because Sunkist material is so well liked, all this immense amount of promotion is obtained free of charge. The Home Economics Division of the Exchange has other important jobs. It gets out the famous Sunkist Recipe Books, 4,000,000 of which have been sent to housewives at their written request! Its big work in the field of education will be taken up in a later column. But it seems to this reporter that no citrus grower should overlook this kitchen business! By keeping citrus dishes constantly before the minds of America's housewives, stimulating interest with new, delectable combinations, the Home Economics Division plays a very steady and worthwhile part in maintaining and increasing citrus consumption. It's another of those things that couldn't be done by a small group of growers, but can be done through the Exchange, in which 14,500 growers work together. Next report: In this paper two weeks from today.
