COLONY QUIPS The "Sage" of Huntington Beach, Jim Farquhar, took his pen in hand last week and let fly at the political situation. You might or might not agree with him but we think it makes interesting reading: "Young Bob" LaFollette and his Wisconsin Progressive party called it quits and trooped back into the Republican party the other day. For these so-called liberals to choose to return to a political party established in the minds of the masses as the last word in mossback conservatism, is hard to understand. Roosevelt taught them to forget political parties to so great an extent that their meaning and significance are all but lost on the younger voters. But whereas a line of demarcation could once be drawn between party principles, they defy definition today. When a student of politics uses the epithet "black Republican" you know he stems from the old Democratic party of the South, which was only the tail of the bureaucratic labor oligarchy Roosevelt built. When Hoover talks of rugged individualism or Bob Taft speaks of the rights of private enterprise; it is only ghosts of other days that are conjured up in the minds of voters who have been taught that handouts to "the common man" are their rightful expectancy. THOS. H. KUCHEL GETS SUPPORT NOTED WRITER Peter B. Kyne, noted California novelist, today charged that the running of Harry E. Riley for state cocontroller against incumbent Thomas H. Kuchel was an obvious attempt to capitalize on the reputation of a dead man, former Controller Harry B. Riley. Said Kyne, "Memories are short in politics, so short that not many years ago a dead man was elected to office in a middle-western state. We had a Riley as our state controller for nearly a quarter of a century and people became accustomed to voting for the name of Riley. "Present Candidate Riley, who now says his occupation is electrical contracting, listed no occupation at all when he filed his papers as a candidate. He explained later that 'some of the boys did not think it wise to give electrical contracting as a qualification for controller." Now, if I wanted some elec- When Hoover talks of rugged individualism or Bob Taft speaks of the rights of private enterprise; it is only ghosts of other days that are conjured up in the minds of voters who have been taught that handouts to "the common man" are their rightful expectancy. There is one fly in the ointment. The giveaway business is bogging down. And much of the noble grandeur of one world internationalism is leaving a bad taste in the mouths of the people. For the demands of union labor, action has often been fast. For the returning veteran in need of disability or other aid, Washington neglect is rapidly becoming a national disgrace. The intent may be good but the red tape is hopelessly snarled. Only the American Red Cross keeps thousands of veterans from becoming public charges. And if the reason why our own boys are so neglected, is that we had to feed the rest of the world and ship our wealth overseas, why are not the facts presented to the American people in concrete form and simple language so we can understand it. In the old days when a church organization dug deep to send a missionary to the heathen, one of them came back once in a while and told us what good our cash did. Well Herbie Lehman who went forth like a knight in shining armor for UNRRA, quit and came home the other day. Where is his report? How many billions did he spend? What good did he do? Just what is our foreign policy today? Just what is our domestic policy? If any one can approximate a definition, perhaps they can also explain the strange spectacle of La Follette's wild-eyed band of world saviors seeking solace under the banner of the party they have so often and so long defiled. "Russia won't fight us," said Congressman John Phillips. The statesman from Banning, who twice has visited the Soviet Union, says there is no "maybe" in the Russian psychology and that when Americans learn that there are only two answers the Russian understands, either yes state controller for nearly a quarter of a century, and people became accustomed to voting for the name of Riley. "Present Candidate Riley, who now says his occupation is electrical contracting, listed no occupation at all when he filed his papers as a candidate. He explained later that 'some of the boys did not think it wise to give electrical contracting as a qualification for controller." Now, if I wanted some electrical work done, this Harry E. Riley might be the man for it, but I would want a man experienced in financial matters to handle my check book. Maybe Thomas Kuchel would botch a job of electrical work, but in the time since he has occupied the office of state controller he's showing what he can do in large scale financial matters. In my opinion those who vote for electric contractor Harry E. Riley will do so unwittingly, in the belief they are voting for the late Harry B. Riley." Census Report Lists 12,658 Residents Here There are 12,658 people listed as residents of Anaheim today, as compared to 11,031 in 1940, according to figures released by city officials this week. A report from J. C. Capt of the U.S. department of census listed 6629 female in the recently completed tabulation, with 6029 mere males accounted for. There were 3878 occupied dwelling units in the city, according to the report, while 29 dwelling units were listed as vacant. To dispel the expectations of home-seeking campers and crowded house dwellers the report hurriedly clarified the vacant dwelling unit report by pointing out that the 29 reputedly vacant homes were merely in process of sale or the family was temporarily absent from the city. In commenting on the report this week, City Clerk Charles Griffith said the local housing shortage is still acute. "You can't find a rental place in town," he said. "Even a furnished room is hard to find." For the remainder of 1946, veterans of World War II may reinstate their national life insurance without taking a physical examination providing they submit a statement their health is the same mother.

The United States adopted budget system in the "Russia won't fight us," said Congressman John Phillips. The statesman from Banning, who twice has visited the Soviet Union, says there is no "maybe" in the Russian psychology and that when Americans learn that there are only two answers the Russian understands, either yes or no—we will have no more trouble with the land of Stalin. "It's the striped pants boys who have ruined our relations with Russia," says Phillips. "It is the nature of the Russians to push out beyond their borders until some one says no and means it." "Human life means nothing to the Russian rulers. They will starve their own people to send wheat to France for political purposes. Their conception of governing simply does not square with any conception we have as Americans, and as soon as our state department gets around to recognizing that cold fact, we will get along with Russia." Almost we are tempted to say something about the new Easter hats. On second glance, however, they speak for themselves. Washington is rapidly getting to be the place where the President says yes and congress says no. Taming the atom is not as big a problem as taming the men who tamed the atom. A person who says what he thinks soon runs out of listeners. We still believe that the best solution to the housing problem is to turn the whole thing over to a dozen sea-bees with a couple of bulldozers and a few hundred pounds of nails. It's not what happens to a man that counts, but what he happens to do about it. In commenting on the report this week, City Clerk Charles Griffith said the local housing shortage is still acute. "You can't find a rental place in town," he said. "Even a furnished room is hard to find." For the remainder of 1946, veterans of World War II may reinstate their national life insurance without taking a physical examination providing they submit a statement their health is the same as when the policy lapsed. Pay Raises for Teachers Urged In Petition Being Circulated An appeal by California public school teachers for an adequate living wage will be carried to the people of California this week. It will take the form of an initiative petition to put on the November general election ballot a measure establishing a minimum salary of $2400 a year and providing for increased state financial support of the public school system. A total of 178,164 signatures will be required to qualify the measure for the ballot. California teachers will be aided in their circulation of petitions by the California Congress of Parents and Teachers, which voted unqualified endorsement of the proposal at its annual convention in San Francisco last week. In addition to increasing the present $1800 minimum salary of public school teachers to $2400 a year, the measure establishes a base of $120 a year in the allocation of state school funds for pupils in average daily attendance. Endorsement of the measure has already come from state, city and county officials, in addition to the parent-teacher organization, who view it as a guarantee that the public schools, now crowded and understaffed, be able to maintain the high educational standards. Roy W. Cloud, state executive secretary of the California Teachers association, declared the measure would save California schools from a crisis resulting from highly increased enrollments, a teacher shortages and inadequate facilities. "Unless we make the teacher profession more financially tractive to the highest-type yeomen and women, California's public school system must inevitably deteriorate," he said. Will pay a heavy penalty for deterioration in juvenile deprivacy." Mrs. Rollin Brown of Los Angeles, new state president of P.-T. A., stressed that only elementary teachers were granted in California this year, candidates for teacher credential have dropped to one-third of pre-war level. School attendance already at an all-time high expected to double within five 10 years, confronting the so-called system with an impossible situation. MOTHER'S DAY The solemn tramp-tramp-tramp of soldiers marching to war has, for a moment at least, been halted. The dreadful lusts and majestic devotions which always go hand-in-hand in times of warring clans, have paled and dried to petty selfishness and pledges to establish and maintain a way of life where men may live together without coming to blows. Men are tired from battle. Women are wearied of the eternal whim and caprice of fortune which sets them in the vortex of the struggle of man against man. Then, out of this maze of ills and foibles of human bondage and human suffering, for one day in a year, emerges the triumphant note of motherhood. The apex of human accomplishment. The promise of another chance for man to fulfill his destiny. The all-encompassing desire of humanity to re-assert itself and have another chance. Mother. Who ever considers the word without a feeling of serenity? Mother. Who ever looks back on her tender ministerings without a firm and solid belief in fundamental kindness of humanity? We have fought war after war in interest of mankind. Each of them has had an avowed purpose of making life better for our children. Not one has been fought to vindicate the rights or beliefs of our mothers. Never has mother's opinion contributed one jot or tittle to the beliefs, purposes or selling points, in inciting one nation against another. War has its place in the councils of the planners of human progress and human activity, but it has not now. Our Humblest Apologies Last week the Gazette reported the theft of around $375 worth of lumber from David Claussen who is engaged in the construction of a new building. The lumber was stolen but the balance of the story was written from hearsay evidence picked up by one of our reporters which information we do not believe to be factual. The newspaper regrets this story appeared and takes this means of calling our readers' attention to the error. New Plant to Build Motors Started Here A new company, incorporated to manufacture electric motors here, has just been launched, with acquisition of a three-acre factory site on North Lemon street, according to A. Arval Morris, Anaheim president of the organization. Incorporated under California law. Mother. Who ever considers the word without a feeling of serenity? Mother. Who ever looks back on her tender ministerings without a firm and solid belief in fundamental kindness of humanity? We have fought war after war in interest of mankind. Each of them has had an avowed purpose of making life better for our children. Not one has been fought to vindicate the rights or beliefs of our mothers. Never has mother’s opinion contributed one jot or tittle to the beliefs, purposes or selling points, in inciting one nation against another. War has its place in the councils of the planners of human progress and human activity, but it has not now, and never has had, a place in the hearts of a mother who looks on her new-born child and dreams of peace and tranquility and Heaven. So, on this Sunday, for a day at least, America shall out aside its bickerings, its dislikes, and its selfish amusement, to pay tribute to its most retiring, kindly, beautiful, reminiscent and effective institution. Mother’s day. Kiwanis Club Mears Tucker James Tucker of Santa Ana told Anaheim Kiwanis club about one of the problems confronting Orange County Water District Tuesday noon. He outlined seven point program of insisting the supply of water in underground basin. For the past many years the city has consistently going on and now with the advent of Metropolitan water the Water District has been trying to have city use that source instead pumping out of the under-ground basin. In answer to questions he maintained that discharge of Metropolitan water by farmers would entail too much noise and advocated better filling of the runoff in the San-Ana river bed. Church Group Plans Mother’s Day Meeting A recognition of Mother’s Day, Holy Name Society will have breakfast-meeting next Sunday at St. Boniface church following 7 o’clock Mass, Wilford J. Lake, secretary has announced. F. Flynn, president of the city, who is in charge of arreements, has extended a cor-invitation to all men of the city to attend the meeting. Ham eggs, ala Fluor, will be feared on the breakfast menu, it revealed. C. of C.

Vet Educational Group Growing Southern California veterans totaling 34,255, were approved in April for educational benefits under the servicemen’s readjustment. Build Motors Started Here A new company, incorporated to manufacture electric motors here, has just been launched, with acquisition of a three-acre factory site on North Lemon street, according to A. Arval Morris, Anaheim president of the organization. Incorporated under California laws as Electra Motors, Inc., the company expects to start construction of the first unit of the plant in two weeks. Mr. Morris said the company will manufacture a line of motors with wide application in all types of industry. The product will be a modern, splash-proof motor of unique design, incorporating many progressive features of interest to the industrial trade. At the outset, about 15 persons will be employed, with plans to increase this number to 25 in the first year of operation, Mr. Morris said. Incorporated with a capital stock of $100,000, the new concern expects to immediately spend about $30,000 in plant equipment at the 1110 North Lemon street factory site, according to the president. Other officers in Electra Motors, Inc., include Bernard N. Palm of San Marino, vice president, and Gilbert J. Wittman of Huntington Park, secretary treasurer. Mother’s Day Set as Cancer Drive Deadline With Mother’s Day set as the deadline of the nation-wide cancer drive, the American Cancer Society has redoubled its concentrated effort to meet southern California’s $515,700 goal, it was revealed by A. J. Grock, state campaign chairman. This date was selected for its symbolic significance, since more mothers are struck by the dread disease than the rest of the population. More than 90,000 American women will die of cancer this year, according to estimates compiled by eminent physicians. Also approximately 83,000 men will be struck and more than 2000 boys and girls under the age of 21 will be stricken. So far the cancer control campaign still shows the southern California fund to be under quite There are two candidates at Katella, Edmundson net and Henry T. Walswucenthion to the Anaheim Highway board of trustees where been serving by appointing Floyd Benson’s resignation first of April. Robert Thon, incumbent, in addition Walsworth, has filed pledges two votes at the local school. Since there are no calls for Loara, Centralia and districts, three school boards will be elected by votes.

More than 3,000 disabled veterans in the Los Angeles area are now in training as part of the rehabilitation program. Other figures released today show a total of 50,114 disability pensions being paid in southern California to veterans of World War II. Disability pensions are being paid to 24,816 World War I veterans. In southern California, the veterans administration received 941 loan applications in April, and patients in southern California hospitals increased by 415 last month, bringing the total to 3,-020.

Moeller spent Thursday in Riverdale attending a meeting of the Roads to Romance association along with other C. of C. secretaries throughout the southland. Mr. Moeller pointed out that the program of the association includes perpetuating the historical background of southern California and presenting visitors with an alluring view of the possibilities here. Cattle was first brought to the Western hemisphere by Christopher Columbus in 1495. Business License Fee Boosted Here Business license fees here will increase on July first under a plan worked out by the city council in the regular weekly meeting Tuesday, City Clerk Griffith said today. The council members, after a careful study of the present business license assessments, agreed that a fee hike is justified. It was also brought out at the meeting that the water line extension of the city is being held up due to the failure of delivery on pipe from the manufacturers. Materials scheduled for March and April delivery has been only partly provided, with the outlook for future delivery remaining very uncertain, councilmen were told.

Feed Shortage Relief Program Nine specific recommendations, designed to "ease" the critical feed situation now facing California livestock, dairy and poultry producers, were presented today by the California Farm Bureau Federation before a hearing in Washington scheduled by Senator Downey, it was announced by President Ray B. Wiser. The Farm Bureau's case before this important hearing was presented by Matt Triggs, member of the Federation's commodity service department staff. As drawn up by Department Director Alex Johnson, the recommendations for bringing relief to California ranchers and producers called for: 1. Restricting shipments of barley from California in 1946 to the tonnage shipped by any concern or individual during 1945. 2. Immediate and aggressive action to break the bottlenecks interfering with adequate production of bale ties. 3. Sufficient landing craft or other small vessels to be supplied by the War Shipping Administration to break the current bottleneck in the shipment of copra from the Philippines. 4. Prohibiting the use of grain in the manufacture of industrial alcohol. 5. Elimination or curtailment of the production of so-called "trick" or adulterated protein meals. 6. Liberalization licenses for the importation of protein meals. 7. Provision for emergency allocation of feed grains, now being purchased by the government, to feed users and feed manufacturers who find themselves unable to obtain 80 per cent of their 1945 pastor of the Church of Christ in Anaheim, announced. Creative student projects will be displayed from 5 to 7 o'clock with prizes awarded for the best exhibits. The first half hour of the religious program which will be presented in the Greek amphitheater from 7 to 8:30 o'clock will be broadcast by transcription over station KVOE, 1790 kc, Santa Ana, from 8:30 to 9 o'clock. Stanley Frederick George, former pastor of the First Presbyterian church of this city and present pastor of the Presbyterian church in San Bernardino, will be master of ceremonies for the special program which will feature outstanding talent. Included will be impressive promotion exercises, a program of achievement, the flag salute in unison and group singing. All other youth movements such as the "Y" boys and girls club and the Orange county youth symphony orchestra, are postponing their meetings for the occasion. The over-all program is handled by a board of 30 members comprised of the pastor and one representative protestant church in eleven communities in the county and our representatives from the Lockman Foundation of La Habra which is cooperating with the churches in this project. A corps of 13 teachers aid in instructing these programs. The organization provides two busses for transportation. More than half of the Orange county public school students taking advantage of the opportunity for religious education offered by the state government; which permits one hour released time from public schools each week for this purpose, are from this city. Anaheim boasts of an enrollment of more than 1200 active student participants. The local program is under the direction of the pastors of the Protestant churches of this city, Paul Demaree, superintendent of Anaheim Union High school, and Melbourne Gauer, superintendent of the Anaheim board of education. Anaheim Union High school is the only high school actively participating in release time programs in the county. Communities to be represented by students, more than 70 per cent of them from elementary schools, include Anaheim, Santa Ana Gardens, Brea, Buena Park, Garden Pastor of the Church of Christ in Anaheim, announced.

Prizes are offered in three-eighths and five-eighths ounce accuracy casting; wet and dry fly casting for accuracy; distance fly casting and salmon fly casting. At noon the casting experts will halt their competition long enough for enjoyment of barbecue for contestants and spectators. Bud Paschall is in charge of this part of the day's program, and promises good food for all comers. The local Izaak Walton group numbers more than 500. The organization is dedicated to clean and healthful sportsmanship, conservation of the nation's game fish and keeping the fishing streams clear and clean for fish," Mr. Mabee said. There was a barber-shop rumor that Fred Hayes would lead a rival team against the Izaak Walton leaguers in the Sunday contests, though it was still unconfirmed at press time. Valencia Orange Crop Curtailed Southern California's valencia orange crop will be limited to 50,000 carloads for 1946 as compared to 76,000 for last year, according to a forecast this week by C. W. Lane, special representative of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway company. Mr. Lane reported that harvesting of the valencia crop is well under way, with fruit sizes generally smaller than usual in most areas. Harvest of southern California's navel orange crop is practically over, most houses having finished packing early in April. An estimated 4000 cars were available for interstate shipment after the end of March, compared with 9.- 4. Prohibiting the use of grain in the manufacture of industrial alcohol. 5. Elimination or curtailment of the production of so-called "trick" or adulterated protein meals. 6. Liberalization licenses for the importation of protein meals. 7. Provision for emergency allocation of feed grains, now being purchased by the government, to feed users and feed manufacturers who find themselves unable to obtain 80 per cent of their 1945 onnage. 8. Normally, California receives 100,000 tons of feed grain per month from other states. The federal Government's corn and wheat purchase program, at prices in excess of cellings, has dried up this source of supply. This program is changing a critical situation to a "desperate" one. 9. Discontinuing UNRRA's program of buying fishing boats on the Pacific coast, which interferes with this area's fishing industry and the manufacture of fish meal, UNRRA's needs should be supplied from other sources. 10. More effective enforcement of feed orders so as to obtain more uniform distribution of feed supplies in all areas. HERE WILL BE NO STATE FAIR IN '46 California will forgo its state fair this year due to reluctance of the directors to divert building materials from the veterans' housing program, it was announced this week. President Fred H. Boxby of the state agricultural society had previously canvassed newspapers and public spirited citizens of the state an effort to ascertain their news concerning holding of the exhibition in this year of stress and displacement. Plans are under way for expansion of the state air facilities, Mr. Bixby said, providing more space and display opportunity for future exhibitions. Child Hurt When Struck By Car Near tragedy stalked the streets of the city Wednesday afternoon when 4-year-old Linda Jean Willett was struck by a car as she playfully pranced onto East Center street in the 200 block. Luckily the car which struck her was being driven slow enough to be quickly halted, inflicting only minor injuries on the child. The Willett family, who reside at 2061 West 96th street in Los Angeles, were returning to their parked car when Linda Jean hurried into the street ahead of her parents. Peter Laborde, 16, of route 3, Anaheim, driving west on Center, struck the child as he pulled his car sharply to the left to miss another automobile which had in turn swerved sharply to miss another car which was double-parked on the south side of the street. A. K. and M. ambulance hurried Linda Jean to the Anaheim Lutheran hospital where she is recovering from cuts and bruises. Police and safety officials pointed to the accident as logical warning to both pedestrians and motorists to heed the urgent plea to stop motor accidents as national safety week is ushered in. ARNOLD HOWARD ON DUTY IN HONOLULU HONOLULU, T. H. — Arnold Howard, 21, aviation machinist's mate, third class, USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold E. Howard of 417 South Citron, Anaheim, is stationed here with squadron 12 of the Naval air transport service. The squadron handles administration and aircraft maintenance for other squadrons operating over a vast network of air bases in the Pacific.
