City Agrees to Oil Lease on County Hospital Short of Nurses; Appeal Is Issued City Agrees to Oil Lease on Sewer Property A resolution authorizing the city of Santa Ana, as contracting city for the sewer system, to enter into an oil lease with the Atlantic Oil company, was adopted by the Anaheim city council at its meeting Tuesday night. The lease would cover 10 acres of land owned by the cities of Anaheim, Santa Ana, Fullerton and Orange, which adjoin the sewage disposal plant. It would be incorporated into a single lease with one covering acreage owned by the county, and which abuts the cities' property. An unusual clause of the lease, it is said, provides a $30 monthly rental for each derrick site, in addition to a one-sixth royalty on any oil that may be taken from the property. The council also passed two ordinances introduced last week, having to do with regulation of electric service and equipment. The Crystal Cold Storage company was authorized to build a railroad spur across Hessel avenue from the Southern Pacific right-of-way into their plant.

County Hospital Short of Nurses; Appeal Is Issued A state of emergency at Orange County Hospital was declared by Dr. Edward Lee Russell, Director of Orange County Public Health Department, at a meeting held Tuesday night at Southern Orange County Chapter, American Red Cross, Santa Ana, presided over by Mr. Sam Hurwitz, Chairman of Orange County Red Cross Council. The meeting had been called in response to a request to obtain more nurses, made to Southern Orange County Chapter by Dr. Harry Zaiser, Superintendent of Orange County Hospital. It being a county problem, the four Red Cross Chapters in the county and other organizations were called to devise means of meeting this emergency. At the request of Dr. Zaiser, Miss Grace Lansing, Superintendent of Nurses, Orange County Hospital, reported that the most acute shortage was felt in surgery and the tuberculosis ward. To handle all emergency operations, only one graduate nurse is available, to be assisted by undergraduates. With this inexperienced help, doctors perform major surgery. In the tuberculosis ward, 107 patients have only one nurse to give medication, assisted by an insufficient number of orderlies and attendants who are inadequately trained. After hearing this report and general discussion, a motion was passed unanimously to concur with Dr. Russell that such a state of emergency did exist, and to request him to send a statement to that effect to the National Red Cross in the Pacific area, asking their assistance in obtaining relief nurses. A motion was also passed that steps be taken to establish a county nurses council, which would be composed of representatives of all organizations interested in nursing and its relation to community welfare, and South Orange County Chapel designated as the agency to preliminary plans.

Surplus Eases Farm Machinery Shortage Farmers needing tractors and construction gangs requiring such scarce items as bulldozers and scrapers, can anticipate some easing of the present machinery shortage. Reconstruction Finance corporation's consumers goods surplus property division says. Equipment, declared surplus by the armed forces, is offering a partial solution. Since June 1, approximately 3,000 pieces of used farm equipment and construction machinery have been sold to qualified dealers in California, Arizona and Nevada, the agency reported. Although not eligible to bid, farmers and contractors are welcome to attend with dealers of their own choice. Tuberculosis Must Register All Automatic Guns, Authorities Warn Police have been asked to warn residents of Anaheim and vicinity concerning federal regulations pertaining to possession and transfer of automatic firearms. A communication from the Federal Bureau of Internal Revenue calls attention to the fact that the National Firearms Act makes it mandatory that such weapons be registered. Included are machine, sub-machine and all guns from which more than one shot may be fired with one continuous pull of the trigger. Many such firearms have been brought or sent home by members of the armed forces and the merchant marine during the recent war and the period following cessation of hostilities, the bureau points out. Persons possessing them should contact the Alcohol Tax unit, room 762 Post Office and Court House, Las Angeles, which will provide necessary information. It also is illegal to transfer ownership of such weapons without paying a $200 tax provided by law, unless they first are rendered unserviceable, in which event they are transferrable tax-free as war trophies upon listing them on the proper form and sending it to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue in Washington. Penalties for violation of the law are a $2000 fine or five years imprisonment. Anaheim Residents Return From Trip Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Duc of Placentina Ave., accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Theo. Fischbach November Is Busy Time for Gardener In the Southland Southland gardeners do not look on November as being made up of "melancholy days," of which the poet sang—or complained. Be he of the city backyard variety or producer of truck crops commercially, something always is at hand to occupy his time. Preparations should be made now for December to March planting of asparagus. Artichokes should go into the ground at this time, as should broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage and cauliflower plants. Seeds to be planted during November may include beets, carrots, celery, endive, kohlrabi, lettuce, onions, parsley, peas,, radishes and turnips. Flower growers should have all spring bulbs in the ground, and should keep a sharp lookout for snails and aphids. Dahlia tubers should not be removed until the tops are dead.

Predicts Tourist Business to Give Jobs to 2,500,000 Don Thomas, all-year club managing director, yesterday key-noted the annual meeting in Chicago of the National Association of Travel Officials, of which he is president, by saying the tourist industry, in which the Southland has a heavy stake, will produce nearly two and one-half million jobs nationally, if forecasts come true for the first year of peace-time operations. Thomas likened "the man with the golf bags and the fishing tackle" to "belching factory smokestacks as a symbol of economic prosperity." "The travel business is still the ugly duckling of our national planners," he said, "although 'money spent in recreational travel in 1939 represented 7 percent of the national income—more than Americans spent for motor vehicles that year. It was twice our exports." Recreational travel equalled the combined output of the meat-packing industry, petroleum refining, printing and publishing, and the products of our iron and steel, he added. What it took almost 70 years to accomplish with natural rubber, American scientists, engineers, and production men have achieved in 5 years with synthetic rubber; 85 per cent of the overall volume of rubber this country is now using is synthetic. The cure can be effected only when the causes are determined. Since it is doubtful if our civilization would survive the crushing impact of another world war, it is imperative that we discover the secret of a lasting peace.—Eric A. Johnston. How can a motor oil save gasoline? Much gasoline loss is caused by gradual ring and cylinder wear. Gas mixtures then "blow-by," compression is reduced, performance gets rough. RPM Motor Oil slows this wear 'way down—sticks tight on hot or cold metal surfaces, insures cold motors against extra starting wear, protects critical hot spots on long runs. For more mileage, less wear—use Standard's RPM Motor Oil. A. A. ROHRS ANAHEIM, CALIF.
