USO to Begin New Campaign The United Service organization is preparing to launch a campaign in October, following repeated pleas from the war and navy departments asking USO to continue indefinitely. During the war years, USO was financed through the War Chest, but this year, USO will be included in the appeal of the Community Chest. The continuance of this organization during 1947 is based on three main obligations of the American people to the service men: 1. To serve those veterans of the war who will not yet have been released from hospitals, armies of occupation or overseas duty by the end of the war. 2. To provide interim activities for peacetime armed forces, until some permanent plan for services for the enlarged and navy has been completed. 3.

Finish Forming Santa Ana River Water Association Formation of the Santa Ana River Water association, which will investigate the adequacy of water supplies in the light of rapid industrial and population growth in Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties, was announced yesterday by George B. Hodgkin, chairman of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce agriculture committee. Hodgkin said the association represents water suppliers of 69,000 acres of the three counties and declared it was the first tri-county organization ever formed to make a comprehensive study of the water supply and to take concerted action for protection of existing water rights. The association's officers are J. J. Prendergast, Redlands, president of the Bear Valley Mutual Water company, president; Vernon C. Heil, Orange County Water district; vice president; and John M. Mylne, Jr., Riverside, Gage Canal company, secretary. Directors include D. R. Gardner, J. C. Tuffree, and Heil, of Orange county. Association members of Orange county, and the acreage they serve are: Anaheim Union Water company, 9,000; Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company, 18,124; Yorba Linda Water company, 2,600; Vernon C. Heil, 80. Purposes of the association are: To make an investigation and report on the present and prospective use of waters from the Santa Ana river watershed and the amount obtainable from it; to recommend action to avoid depletion of the supply; to protect existing rights; to protect irrigation water from pollution by industry. Old Age Security Law to Provide Higher Payments Increased assistance payments under the California Old Age Security law according to recent amendments to Title I of the Federal Security act passed by congress will be come effective October 1. Amounting to five dollars per recipient, the increase will total approximately $9,720,000 per year throughout California. This increase of five dollars to each recipient of old age security does not necessarily apply to those aged persons whose need is determined on a budget basis or to those who have an income which, when added to the assistance payment, meets their individual budgeted needs. Interpretation of the budget rules indicates that some will receive a slight increase and others will receive no increase at all. The law provides that the amount of income plus the grant of aid may not exceed the recipient's total need. If a person needs $65 and has a $20 income, his grant at present is $45. Any increase in his grant would mean that he would receive in excess of the amount necessary to meet his need. Therefore, he would not receive an increase in his assistance payment. Items in the budget schedule are averaged amounts based on state-wide pricings. There will be a few recipients whose aid is currently being paid on a budget basis and whose total need is some where between $50 and $55. If the need of the recipient currently receiving aid on a budget basis is not more than $55 on October 1, the income necessarily has to be deducted from $55 because the law provides that the income and the grant of assistance must equal this amount unless there is a need... New Light-Weight Refrigerator Car To Be Tested An experimental light weight railroad refrigerator car, under construction for nearly a year in Los Angeles, has just been completed and is now ready to go into actual service, participating in extensive car tests and research during the next two years. Exterior sheathing of the many-purpose, standard-dimension car is gleaming metal alloy. Use of this metal alloy throughout the super structure has resulted in a saving of almost four tons compared with the weight of conventional refrigerator cars, while steel has been retained for the load-bearing underparts. The car will roll on new easy riding trucks. Embodied in this experimental car are virtually all improvements suggested by the national fruit and vegetable trade committee. It also has such already proven features of the newest Pacific Fruit express cars as half stage iceing devices, herringbone floor racks for better bearing surface under all types of loads, and covertible ice bunkers which can be folded when not needed, thereby increasing the capacity of the car and practically converting it into a glorified box car for a wide variety of freight. The walls, the floor and roof of this experimental car have an extra thickness of insulation material, a new light-weight type glass insulation being used in this instance. It also has side wall flues and circulating fans to force the cooling or warming air around averaged amounts based on state-wide pricings. There will be a few recipients whose aid is currently being paid on a budget basis and whose total need is some where between $50 and $55. If the need of the recipient currently receiving aid on a budget basis is not more than $55 on October 1, the income necessarily has to be deducted from $55 because the law provides that the income and the grant of assistance must equal this amount unless there is a need in excess of $55. Toastmasters to Install Officers Bob Allen will be installed as president of the local Toastmasters club by William Davis, past president, during the regular dinner-meeting next Monday night at the Anaheim Union high school cafeteria at 6:30 o'clock, it was announced at the business session last Monday evening.

Table topic master for the evening was Royal Marten presenting the subject, "Is There Actually Any Red Lettuce?" Jack Browne was the toastmaster of the evening. Aubrey Van Verst acted as evaluator and Lawrence Plummer was the diction critic. Knight Extends Campaign Tour To Southern Counties Superior Judge Goodwin J. Knight, fresh from a highly successful campaign tour in northern California, carries his fight for the lieutenant governorship of California back into the southland this week. Judge Knight set aside time from his campaigning on Sunday and Monday (Sep. 29-30) to serve ice bunkers which can be folded when not needed, thereby increasing the capacity of the car and practically converting it into a glorified box car for a wide variety of freight. The walls, the floor and roof of this experimental car have an extra thickness of insulation material, a new light-weight type glass insulation being used in this instance. It also has side wall flues and circulating fans to force the cooling or warming air around the load.

Defines Jaysee Public Relations An article by Director John H. McCoy of Santa Ana Junior college, on junior college relations, appeared recently in the Washington News Letter of the American Association of Junior Colleges; it was announced from the junior college today. The work was described as vital and timely by chairman of the association, John E. Gray of Lamar College, Beaumont, Texas. The campaign tour to Southern Counties Superior Judge Goodwin J. Knight, fresh from a highly successful campaign tour in northern California, carries his fight for the lieutenant governorship of California back into the southland this week. Judge Knight set aside time from his campaigning on Sunday and Monday (Sep. 29-30) to serve on the state reception committee at the American Legion national convention in San Francisco. He is a legionnaire of many years standing, and the only veteran in the race for lieutenant governor. After covering nearly all of northern California's 48 counties in a whirlwind campaign tour during the past month and spending all of last week in the Sacramento Valley, Knight expects to campaign in the northern half of the state from now until election day. All northern areas run high in enthusiasm for the Knight candidacy, with active committees in his behalf having been formed in all major counties. His campaign during October will be an intensive one, despite the fact that as a Los Angeles man, he can count on strong regional support from the southern counties. report defines the purpose, ingredients, and the aims of public relations in the junior college and in relation to the community. An outline of a model program completes the report with a day by day calendar of events. A recent survey disclosed that public eating places serve approximately 62,000,000 meals daily.
