WASHINGTON
As Seen By
CONGRESSMAN JOHN PHILLIPS
"We are lending our aid to the rehabilitation of veterans, the extent of which practically precludes all other considerations, except insofar as a bottleneck item may relate to minimum rate of operation, when fully substantiated."
Just a sentence out of a letter from the CPA, to a merchant in Riverside county. I offer it to the teachers of business English in our schools, as a model.
"USDA studies show California farm workers receive the highest wages of any state in the nation, with exception of Washington, and outstrip that state on a monthly wage, including board. California's daily farm wage, without board, is $8.10, compared to Washington's $9, and a national average of $4.84." From the Pacific Rural Press.
"A thousand years scarce serve to form a state; an hour may lay it in the dust." Byron wrote it, and I found it in the April issue of Washington News Digest.
"Economic Limitation." This is a new phrase the slide-rule boys are fond of at the moment. We have it now on cotton, wheat, Irish potatoes, fluid milk. The southern congressmen also fixed themselves up an "economic limitation" on exporting tobacco seed, which is in effect an embargo.
"The Russians understand two words in English, 'yes' and 'no.' Our 'maybe' policy is beyond their powers of comprehension." Quoted from "Surplus Foods Report," a little memo-report put out in Washington by Mrs. Alice Peppers, which constantly calls the turn on government surplus food policies.
Speaking of Russia, the real name of that country is of course, "Union of Soviet Socialistic Republics" or USSR. When the boys and girls, now in government jobs, who are working so assiduously to renovate this country along the same lines, are successful, our name will probably be "Union of American Socialistic States," and Rubicon, a little digest magazine, comments that this will be appropriate. You will observe that the initials are UASS.
There are 20 government agencies landing money on insurance.
Knowland Unified Halting of UNR Shipments to
The halting of all UNR shipments to Yugoslavia was U.S. Senator William H. Land last week, "until failure has been given by government for the unwarranted attacks upon unarmed transport planes."
Knowland pointed out to the end of July, Yugoslav received supplies worth 1000; and it was scheduled to deliver another $100,000,000 plies shortly. "Prompt needed," he said, "two being loaded in New York right now, with UNRR slated for the Communistated government."
"Marshal Tito has kept millions of dollars worth and machinery a secret! ple of Yugoslavia are aware that they're being clothed by the United States stead of building good-will United States, and stress the cause of democracy and peace, our generous help aided Tito in keeping army in the field—an men who should have work producing food country!"
Senator Knowland again the UNRRA program is which is saving millions of victims of the war starving. He told of his for the program, saying always worth while to help themselves; but cally denouncing those bite the hand that fed

Quoted, in abbreviated form, from the testimony of Lindsay Warren, Comptroller-General of the United States, before a senate committee. He overlooked the 65,000 men and women putting out news releases and radio items, and engaged in various propaganda activities, much of which is deliberately inaccurate.

Knowland Urges Halting of UNRRA Shipments to Tito
The halting of all UNRRA shipments to Yugoslavia was urged by U.S. Senator William F. Knowland last week, "until full satisfaction has been given by the Tito government for the unwarranted attacks upon unarmed American transport planes."
Knowland pointed out that up to the end of July, Yugoslavia had received supplies worth $327,578,000; and it was scheduled to receive another $100,000,000 in supplies shortly. "Prompt action is needed," he said, "two ships are being loaded in New York harbor right now, with UNRRA goods slated for the Communist-dominated government."
"Marshal Tito has kept all these millions of dollars worth of food and machinery a secret! The people of Yugoslavia aren't even aware that they're being fed and clothed by the United States! Instead of building good-will for the United States, and strengthening the cause of democracy and world peace, our generous help has only aided Tito in keeping a large army in the field—an army of men who should have been at work producing food for that country!"
Senator Knowland agreed that the UNRRA program is a blessing which is saving millions of unfortunate victims of the war from starving. He told of his support for the program, saying that it is always worth while to help people to help themselves; but emphatically denouncing those who now bite the hand that fed and succeeds them in their time of need.
In addition to UNRRA aid, Yugoslavia has received $32,081,778 in lend-lease from the United States and surplus property valued at $1,250,000, according to the state department.
Voting Mandatory Says P.-T. A. Head Of Los Angeles
Voters were urged to register now and then vote with no delay by sideline quarterbacking about state, national and world affairs, by Mrs. Rollin Brown of Los Angeles, president of the California Congress of Parents and Teachers. She has pronounced views upon the necessity of registering before September 26.
"Many sideline quarterbacks have suggestions for the Paris Peace Conference and for the coming United Nations General Assembly — but the suggestion most likely to have the greatest effect upon world opinion is that offered by the alarmingly small vote cast at our recent primary and special elections," said Mrs. Brown.
"Does anyone think that our failure to look after our local affairs and evince an interest in the Congress is not observed by foreign powers and interpreted as indecision or indifference — or both? The Congress must ratify any peace treaties and implement United Nations for America.
"If we are to make our voices heard among the nations of the world—indeed, if we are to continue as a nation of free people—we shall have to do better. Our kind of government cannot operate successfully or justly if we permit a handful of people to elect our officers and make our laws."
Taxpayers Submit Report on Cost of County Gov't.
According to a report from the California Taxpayers' association, Orange county's $24.98 per capita cost of county government for 1944-45 was spent as follows: $3.18 for general government; $3.07 for protection to persons and property; 48 cents for health and sanitation; $2.04 for highways and bridges; $15.04 for charities and corrections; 78 cents for recreation, education and miscellaneous; and 38 cents for debt payments.
The counties spent an average of $26.67 for general county purposes during the fiscal year of 1944-45 over the state as a whole. Of this, an average of $3.32 per capita was for general government; $2.20 for protection to persons and property; 78 cents for health and sanitation; $2.48 for highways and bridges; $16.55 for charities and corrections; 94 cents for recreation, education and miscellaneous; and 40 cents for debt payments.
Per capita expenditures for charities and corrections far outdistanced expenditures for any other function of county government in every California county except Alpine, which showed larger expenditures per capita for highways and bridges than for any other purpose.
With aid to the needy standards fixed by the state, the field for economy in county government is considerably narrowed," said the association, "Rising prices and today's high tax levels make it more than ever necessary that every possible administrative improvement that will reduce ex-
Senator Knowland agreed that the UNRRA program is a blessing which is saving millions of unfortunate victims of the war from starving. He told of his support for the program, saying that it is always worth while to help people to help themselves; but emphatically denouncing those who now bite the hand that fed and succumbed.
"Some of us are frightened men, frightened almost to the verge of panic, but being frightened is not enough to save us from the catastrophe whose gigantic shadow seems creeping over tomorrow. America must wake up." Dr. Albert J. McCartney, formerly pastor of the Covenant-First Presbyterian church of Washington, now director of the Chicago Sunday Evening Club.
The chairman of the committee on agriculture was asked to explain the difference between "farming" and "agriculture." He said, "Agriculture is just about the same as farming, only in farming you really do it."
State Leads All Others in 25 Different Crops
According to data released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, California led all other states in production of 25 commercial fruit, nut, truck and field crops in 1944.
A study based on the information in the department's "Agricultural Statistics, 1945," shows that of the 28 fruit and nut crops listed, California ranked first in production of 114, and for 9 of the 14, California produced 90 per cent or more of the nation's commercial crop.
The state's vegetable production is likewise of considerable importance as California outranked all others in 10 of the 29 crops listed by the department. Although California agriculture features fruit and vegetable specialty crops, this state also ranked first in production of alfalfa hay and second in sugar beets, barley and dry beans.
California alone provided 46 per cent of the nation's commercial fruit crop in 1944 and 16 per cent of the vegetable crop. This lead is being well maintained, for similar study of 1942 records indicated 43 per cent of the fruits and 13 per cent of the truck crops coming from California. Not only is a large quantity of fruits and vegetables grown here, but a wide diversity as well. More than 200 different crops are raised in California on a commercial scale.
Accelerating during the war, commercial fruit output went up more than 10 per cent from 1942-44, while truck output increased by one-fourth. Returns to California farmers likewise made substantial gains, income for all crops in 1944 being $1,237,672,000.
The state ranked first in the production of the following 25 foreign powers and interpreted as indecision or indifference — or both? The Congress must ratify any peace treaties and implement United Nations for America.
“If we are to make our voices heard among the nations of the world—indeed, if we are to continue as a nation of free people—we shall have to do better. Our kind of government cannot operate successfully or justly if we permit a handful of people to elect our officers and make our laws.
“An old government poster used to say that 'bad officials are elected by good citizens who do not vote.' However, this is not true; the person who does not cast a considered ballot when expression of the will of the people is called for, is jeopardizing the liberties of all and has no claim to the name of good citizens.
"Neither a brave new world, nor a strong democratic nation, nor a vigorous progressive state, nor a fine prosperous community can be built or maintained by the citizen who does not register and vote—and coming generations must suffer the consequences of his indolence and reaction.”

Army Needs To Be Told To Industry
The U. S. Army will launch a two-way program to familiarize industry with the needs of military procurement and to increase army officers' information on problems of industry this fall, according to 1st Lt. Edward F. Tully, local army recruiting officer.
Officers will be selected from eight different components of the army and assigned for a period of approximately one year with industrial organizations throughout the country.
Lt. Tully described the new training program as having been designed to establish a liaison between the army and private industry, in order that a better understanding of each other's problem and needs can be achieved.
Oyster Loaf Cafe Re-Opens Tuesday
Doors of the newly re-decorated Oyster Loaf cafe, 174 West Center street, swung open Tuesday morning after being closed for two and one-half months due to the illness of William C. Gathas, owner and operator of the establishment with his wife for the past 35 years. Gathas was greeted by his many friends who congratulated him on his rapid recovery.
Remodeling includes new booths and chairs for the cocktail bar and attractive wall paper of cream tone accented by a pastel flower design throughout the coffee shop and bar.
The cafe is open from 8 o'clock to 1 o'clock in the morning and is closed each Monday.

Here's one for Ripley, but the trouble is, no names are available.
A handsome young Marine sergeant walked into a local restaurant, picked up a menu and when the waitress asked for his order he looked up, gasped and said, "Hello... hello sis!" There was not the slightest hint of recognition in her eyes, but the urgency in his voice made her pause. The Marine jumped up and fumbled for his wallet, "Read it," he said, "read my name!" The waitress, puzzled, scanned the identification card, as in hurried sentences, the sergeant tried to explain everything... south Pacific... japs... bombs... more japs... blinding flash! "That's how it was," he said, "plastic surgery fixed me up!" So that's the story on how it came about that a certain local waitress had a reunion dinner, with a handsome young marine sergeant last week... her own brother!
Veteran bookers around New York weren't amazed in the least when they heard that Perry Como would receive the highest price in booking history for a one night appearance, but when they heard the price, they could scarcely believe it. From an outlay of fourteen thousand dollars for a concert at New Haven's Arena tomorrow, September 13, Como is to receive a cool ten thousand!
Brightest question of the week comes from May Ellen Manners of Columbia University, New York city: "Is Margaret O'Brien a midget? No, May Ellen, emphatically no!
A Santa Monica fireman died instantly last Wednesday while fighting a garage fire at 1007 Fifth street, Santa Monica. As he carried the nozzle end of the fire home into the burning garage his chuck-wagon style, was prepared by Jack Dalley, local parlor member, and his capable committee. President Frank Salverson presided as master of ceremonies.
Guests included Sidney Montague, formerly of the Northwest Mounted Police, and well-known to many persons in northern Orange county for his lectures of the Fullerton forum.
Future activities of the local group include a fall dance and card party to be given Tuesday evening under the sponsorship of the Native Sons at the Anaheim Ebell club for all members of both the Native Sons and Daughters, it was announced by John Keyes, committee chairman, who urged all members to bring their friends for the event which has a "get-acquainted" theme.

A Santa Monica fireman died instantly last Wednesday while fighting a garage fire at 1007 Fifth street, Santa Monica. As he carried the nozzle end of the fire hose into the burning garage, his neck brushed a 110-volt power line. Wet feet, wet hose, one electrocution.
Except for a strange quirk of fate, the Gazette would have carried a similar story this week. One of our own firemen fortunately lived through the experience. Take heed, you people who play with matches!
Every time a radio station runs out of a sponsor, it's left with an hour or so of what is called "dead air." As a consequence, a lot of money is involved. One bright chapple offered a solution to the ABC network when they faced the dilemma a short time ago. He suggested that they get the local libraries to chip in for a "period of silence" so everybody could read their newspapers!
