WASHINGTON As Seen By CONGRESSMAN JOHN PHILLIPS Congress adjourned in a blaze of glory late Friday afternoon, the 2nd. What's that you say? Well, al'right, it adjourned! Whatever you think about the 79th Congress, it was part of an important period in the history of this country, and it had an undeniable influence on that period. It has been criticized for doing too much, and for doing too little. Ten years ago, as a less experienced legislator, I would have been upset to have seen bills I was interested in, die on the senate calendar in the last few moments of the session. Today, more experienced and perhaps more tolerant, I take comfort in the fact that extremely important bills did pass and say, with Speaker Rayburn, "always just ahead is another session of congress." He continued, "It is going to be said that many things have been left undone that should have been done. In a few instances, this is true. But many times it is better to leave undone some things than to rush and do them in too great a hurry. Sometimes it does not hurt for some proposal to ripen a little." The essence of democratic government is in that simple statement: The boys and girls who want the "millennium in a biennium," as we used to say in Sacramento, are impatient with the legislative processes of a republic. They are so sure of themselves; so sure their theories are better than the slower but historically safer methods on which this country has grown, that they dash off to follow any green (or pink) movement which seems to We feel it our duty to apologize if you were one of the many who were unable to purchase a copy of the Gazette from our desk last week. The complete sell-out by Thursday evening was not anticipated and we have taken steps to prevent its happening again. You may be assured of receiving a copy each week from now on! State’s Farmers Get Good Financial Bill of Health With 4648 California agriculturalists having paid off their land bank and commissioner loans in full, or having made principal payments amounting to $17,357,-230 during the fiscal year from July 1 through June 30 of this year, the financial condition of California farmers and stockmen was described as "excellent" in a report issued by Willard D. Ellis, president of the Federal Land Bank of Berkeley, last week. In the four states of California, Arizona, Utah and Nevada, comprising the eleventh farm credit district, pay-offs and principal payments on loans totaled $21,-089,037 for 6031 individuals; 5,077 land bank and commissioner loans were paid in full prior to maturity. A net reduction of farm debt for these four states reveals a decline from $89,607,900 at June 30, 1945 to $78,822,000 by June 30 of this year a decrease of $10,-785,300 during 12 months.

The boys and girls who want the "millenium in a biennium," as we used to say in Sacramento, are impatient with the legislative processes of a republic. They are so sure of themselves; so sure their theories are better than the slower but historically safer methods on which this country has grown, that they dash off to follow any green (or pink) movement which seems to promise quicker action. The duty of a legislative body is not only to approve; it is also to disapprove. The value of a congress is often in what it prevents, as much as in what it passes. After reading some of the comments on the congress, in recent months and years, you would be pleased to know how much it really did do, in connection with the war, and in the subsequent period of slowing up the speed of a tremendous war machine and converting it to peacetime industry, and how much damage it prevented, by a judicious use of its procedural powers, and the nation's system of checks and balances. Never forget, in the words of Congressman John Gibson, as he retired this year, "There is an element working under cover in this country whose every aim is to destroy the confidence of the American people in its congress. It is pitiful to know that in too many instances the press and radio commentators have been either willing or unwilling partners in this conspiracy. The purpose is not to hurt any individual, but to destroy the confidence of the people in its legislative body. If this can ever be accomplished, then, of course, our democracy crumbles like snow before a blistering sun." Next week, when the day comes for me, to write the copy for this weekly column, now in its 14th year, I shall be rolling through the wide open spaces, somewhere between Washington and Banning. We will drive out in the car of another California congressman, who wants the car there for the campaign. Before I get away, on the 12th I hope, I will try to set down some of the things the 79th Congress did, and did not do.

In addition to the millions sent in to pay debts, borrowers have accumulated $2,002,800 in future payment funds for future applications on loans. "Home Service" New Convenience For Housewives Designed to serve housewives here and owners or managers of local offices and business establishments, is the new "Home Service" department, 142 East Center street, owned and operated by Mr. and Mrs. Joe Smith of Center and River drive, Corona. Complete "summer overhaul," featured by the duo, a young veteran and his wife, includes cleaning of walls, floors and ceilings, and "shampooing" of windows, venetian blinds and wood work. Smith enlisted in the navy January, 1943, and received his discharge last March after serving aboard the U.S.S. Boise during three years of over-seas duty. He has five stars for the Asiatic-Pacific theater and one star for the Philippine liberation. For 18 months he was a fireman 1/c. At the time of his discharge at Terminal Island, San Pedro, he was a ship's cook 2/c. The Smiths are the proud parents of a petite two-and-one-half-month-old daughter, Liana Dee. Before beginning business here, the young couple was associated with the Spic and Spann Maintenance company, Corona, owned by Mrs. Smith's father, M. J. Spann.

BRINKERHOFF 308 East Third Street SANTA ANA, Calif. RADAR OPERATION EXPLAINED IN ARTICLE BY EX-NAVY MAN Radar is the "all seeing eye." During the war radar saved many lives by telling the allied troops where they were, where others were, where others were going and how fast they were going. However, that is only one small use of radar, for it can be of untold value in navigation. Radar actually draws an ever changing map of everything around a ship's navigator. For example if he was navigating into a small bay through a narrow channel at night in fog, it eliminates the risky procedure of "flying blind" by instruments, checking and reecking. With radar ranges and earings to the shore line, he can tell if another ship is heading his way, and if so, when he will intersect him. Obstacles in his path become as discernable as on the nearest of days. According to a pamphlet authored by Donald D. Britton, one of the owners of the Radio and Electronics Engineering company, 7 East Center street, the principle of operation of radar is simple. A combination of principles discovered by many persons, it is basically radio, for it incorporates ultra sensitive radio-receiver, sensitive to a degree that a transmission from the moon could be received; and a transmitter so strong and powerful that it rates with the nation's most powerful radio station. The principle of bouncing waves off of an object, a bat does, is used in this equipment. Radar sends out a short pulse of radio frequency waves which are directed at an object, the waves bounce off the object and are returned to the radar receiver and indicated on a map. These waves are timed from the instant they leave the radar transmitter until they are received by the radar receiver once radio waves travel at the speed of light, or at the rate of record Tuna Pack May Be Made In State This Year According to a survey made by the American Can company, California now cans more than one-half pound of Tuna fish each year for every man, woman and child in the country! “This year's pack may reach record proportions,” revealed E. H. Bell, vice president of the company. “Tuna boats and crews are back on a peacetime basis.” The state canned 60,459,000 pounds of Tuna in 1944 as compared with the national total of 74,760,000 pounds, it was explained in the company's study. The unusually heavy demand for Tuna cans also indicates that the 1946 pack may exceed that of all previous years. Food packers' requirements would be supplied despite the shortages of materials. This is contained in an optimistic report from the can making industry. California's mackerel pack reached 44,653,000 pounds in 1944 as compared with the national total of 55,368,000 pounds, the study reported. Independent Is Declared Legal The Santa Ana Independent was declared a bonafide newspaper in a decision handed down by the Fourth District Court of Appeals last Tuesday. The state appeals court affirmed a decision given last year by Superior Judge Raymond H. Thompson, that the weekly newspaper's 500 paid subscriptions constituted a bonafide subscription list. The late Col. Alvin B. Berry, former publisher of the Independent and co-partner with his wife McCallen End Jim Farquhar State Senator M. M. McCallen, new leader and former mayorington Beach, with friends throughout Orangety, today issued the statement: “On account of the changing set-up in the fining business and my absence from home of the Marine Corps, I possible to take the time the race for the State S which post the Orange Democratic Central have endorsed me. “In the absence of a cratic candidate in this take pleasure in announcing whole-hearted support for friend and fellow town Farquhar. “I am also asking to my good friends through county be sure and sign quhar's nominating petition, on the final date the 17th of August, to only a great number but a lot of good work the cause of good government.” Aquatic Awards Issued at AU Swimming awards for students who passed their mediate and more "swimmers" tests at the Union high school plus the direction of Richard director, were presented.

In presenting these cards to many United States chapters of the American Red Cross, Viscountess Bridgeman, D.B.E., chairman of the Supply Service committee, commented that they are a "small token of appreciation of the invaluable and most generous help which had been afforded to the Red Cross and St. John War Organization by your members." Mrs. Gauer emphasized, however, the urgent need for more garments for hospitalized veterans in this country. Anaheim is still behind in its quota of bedside bags, kit bags, sweaters, sox, bed sox and other articles which are distributed to appreciative service men by the American Red Cross, Pacific area office, San Francisco.

In the absence of any Democratic candidate in the race, I take pleasure in announcing my whole-hearted support of my old friend and fellow townsman, Jim Farquhar.
