"Is you is or is you ain't" turned in your Victory Chest kit yet? This question is addressed to the various workers for the Anaheim drive. Reason: many workers have not been heard from since they took their kits and started out (it is hoped) with a gleam in their good eye and a strong desire to do their collective stuffs. Frankly, the drive is not doing so well, according to Rev. H. G. Schmélzer, secretary-treasurer. "Of our quota of $31,597 less than half has been 'sold' and this isn't too good for a showing considering that the drive closes Oct. 31," warned Rev. Schmelzer. Therefore if all collectors or workers will take in their kits at once, the committee will be able to find out how much more effort must be put into the drive. Other kits will be given to workers if they need them, it was pointed out. Sleeping Driver Receives Injuries When Car Crashes Harold Hutchinson Judd, 30, of 489 North Clementine street, received chest injuries and rib fractures when, asleep at the wheel, he crashed into a parked car at 1119 North Main street, Santa Ana, last Saturday. Judd told police that he awoke too late to avoid hitting the car belonging to Ray Anderson Chronik of the Santa Ana address. He was taken to the Orange County hospital. Lions Hear Talk By Dr. W. T. Boyce Friday's meeting of the Anaheim Lions club featured Dr. W. T. Boyce, director of Fullerton Junior College, speaking on "Charter of the United Nations and Problems of Peace." The meeting was held at the Elks clubhouse, regular meeting place. Boyce pointed out that civilization is a race between education and disaster, and that the education required to save the world is not confined to schools, but, in time of current international upheaval, must reach through schools, church, radio, and press to serve its full purpose. According to Boyce, in the future it will be necessary to think in terms of world environment; modern citizens must think in the terms of a world background in all phases of activities. Present ideas must legislate for world peace, in place of national wealth or military might, he concluded.

That Postwar Future? - It's Here! The main purpose of this column is and always has been to furnish information—give folks a clearer idea of the California Fruit Growers Exchange and how it works. From time to time, though, during the war years, your reporter modestly hinted that if you were not an Exchange member, it would be a good thing if you joined up. “In the postwar era,” we said, “a citrus grower is bound to do far better in the Exchange.” And the chances are you agreed. “Yes,” you said to yourself, “when this wartime demand for citrus slacks off and all that new production from Florida and Texas pours into the market, we're going to have a tough competitive situation. The grower who markets through the Exchange will have the advantage. I'll join right after the war.” Well, sir, that time has arrived. That long-talked-of “postwar future” isn't future anymore. It's here. It's now. If you've put off affiliating with the Exchange till after the war, this is the time to act. The new competitive era is already breathing down our necks. Your fruit will soon be fighting for its life in an open market. Why not see that fruit of yours marketed to the best possible advantage? Why not market it—not through an organization that sells in just a few localities, but through the one organization that sells through its own highly trained sales staff in every market in the whole U.S. and Canada, and principal world markets, always placing your fruit where it will command the very top figure? Why not see to it that your quality fruit, instead of going to market anonymously, goes out under the name Sunkist, the one citrus brand that's known and preferred? Sunkist fruit commanded a premium in every single year before the war. And it will again. In this new era, disposing of unmerchantable fruit will once more be a serious problem. Why not market through the organization that offers complete services for the successful handling of your entire crop?

Sunkist fruit commanded a premium in every single year before the war. And it will again. In this new era, disposing of unmerchantable fruit will once more be a serious problem. Why not market through the organization that offers complete services for the successful handling of your entire drop? As an Exchange member you share in the ownership of the Exchange products plants and in the returns from product sales. You come out best that way. Remember, too, that the Exchange is the growers' own organization—organized and developed by growers, for growers. 14,500 California-Arizona growers belong. That's three out of every four. It's the one organization that works constantly to advance your industry—to increase citrus consumption, to represent your interests, to meet the important industry problems that affect every grower's welfare. Thus, you not only make more money as an Exchange member—you share in a great cooperative effort. And you'll take an extra satisfaction in the affiliation for that reason. The time when you planned to take this step is here—right now. Sign up with the Exchange. Next report: In this paper two weeks from today.
