COLONY QUIPS Well, there is one thing sure and that is the rationing will be coming back in Washington in the first six months of 1947. It will be badly needed, too, at least in railroad transportation. Our guess is that the new Republican congress will eliminate thousands and thousands of federal employees from the payroll. Instead of shifting these people from one department to another they will be shifted from the backs of the taxpayers and put back on their own responsibility and, we hope, become producing taxpayers themselves. In that category they will again become interested in our government being a servant of the "common man" instead of his master. That simple fact embodies all the essential features of the "American dream". At any rate there is every possibility of long lines forming before the ticket windows for reservations and transportation home. We hope that this problem can be solved without resorting to OTA (Office of Termination Administration) because that bureau might need so many people that the need for it might vanish. We're going around in circles too. The Bureau heads in Washington are aware now of the possibility of losing a great many of their "friends" put on the payroll during various "emergency" scares that existed only in the heads of these same bureaucrats. About their only chance now is to talk of an impending "depression" they are trying to see in the The Bureau heads in Washington are aware now of the possibility of losing a great many of their "friends" put on the payroll during various "emergency" scares that existed only in the heads of these same bureaucrats. About their only chance now is to talk of an impending "depression" they are trying to see in the future that can only be staved off by congress giving them some billions in public works appropriations. This old "statue of liberty" play will be pulled on the new congress soon after it convenes in January. These desperate bureaucrats are getting set to drum up a depression or die trying. The first "depression balloons" have been sent up; including a warning to banks to batten down on loans, and others soon will be released. The same technique was used at the end of the war, with dire warnings of widespread unemployment, but while the depression never materialized the bureaus in Washington did manage to maintain their swollen personnel at near war-time levels. Many sound economists, to be sure, do look for the inflationary boom to bust early in 1947, with the possibility of a mild recession of several months' duration, but they generally agree that there is no threat of a real depression—unless the nation's economy should be paralyzed by a series of prolonged and disastrous strikes. Housewives, undoubtedly, will force down prices on many commodities, simply by refusing to buy—and wages, too, may taper off as prices seek more normal levels. Political and economic forecasters both anticipate a stiffening attitude on the part of employers in opposition to wage boosts, because managements in many businesses fear higher wages would force prices so high that people wouldn't buy. Basically, however, all the factors exist which should make for good times rather than bad, in the opinion of most observers, if labor, management and government can find a common meeting ground and get along. There's still a tremendous pent-up demand for goods and services—and the average American, despite all his gripping, has more GOV. EARL WARREN GRAND PARADE OF FLOATS ENDS HALLOWE’EN CLASSIC Before a cheering throng of more than 50,000 fun-seekers gathered from near and far, one of the greatest parades of floats eased from witness in Anaheim streamed down Center street last Thursday night in concluding the city’s 23rd Annual Hallowe’en festival. Float after float wheeled past the judges’ stand set up in front of the J. C. Penney store, the parade sprinkled liberally with high stepping twirlers and drum majorettes leading smartly-stepping bars. Shortly after 7 p.m., movie star Allan Lane astride his famous horse "Thunder"; trotted into view followed by the USC Trojan band and more than one hundred assorted floats, all of them carrying out the theme of the day... Hallowe’en. Prize float of them all, as chosen by Judges Frank Burrill of Brea; Bill Gallienne of Huntington Beach and H. F. Kennedy of Newport Harbor was the SQR store’s version of two broomstick tofin’ witches on their way to the moon. Kathleen and Angeleen Bishop, wearing sparkling silver costumes, were the so-called “witches”. Other winners taking part in the grand parade are listed as follows: Float carrying out “Hallowe’en Theme” and most comically de- War Hero to Be Grand Marshall At Harbor Parade Clarence B. (Whitey) Craft, fireball “hero of Hen Hill” in Omaha’s bitterest battle, and county's only Congressional Member of Honor winner in this war, will be grand marshal of the county Armistice Day observance parade at Newport Beach. Such was the announcement day of Commander Earl W. C. persmith of Newport Harbor American Legion post, sponsors of day-long observance which is fled such ever since before World War Two. Basically, however, all the factors exist which should make for good times rather than bad, in the opinion of most observers, if labor, management and government can find a common meeting ground and get along. There’s still a tremendous pent-up demand for goods and services—and the average American, despite all his griping, has more money to spend than at any other time in the country’s history. If he ends up on relief, or working on a government WPA project, it will be because of an artificially drummed-up depression in the midst of conditions made for plenty. But watch out for the depression boys in Washington. They are already beating their drums! H. E. Meger Brings Home ‘The Bacon’ Out of the many mishaps that always seem to occur during “big doin’”, Henry Meger’s track ability was revealed to an extent that his friends feel he deserved a trophy. A member of the Calvary Baptist church float committee for the Hallowe’en parade, Meger exhibited his prowess by running, with a record player newly repaired for the occasion, from South Kroeger street to Olive street, past Olive to Center street and just around the corner on Center street to where he caught up with the church’s entry. Seems, in order to save the truck battery, the committee members hooked up auxiliary batteries for the recording machine and speakers. Then as a double precaution, they added an extra set of batteries in case the one got tired. However, they were connected in a series, 12 volts worth, which promptly burned out the wires in the recorder just before the grand march deadline. It was rushed to a repair man’s home on South Kroeger street, where Meger remained until it was finished, and the parade was well under way. After his terrific sprint, he tried madly to connect it before the float reached the judges’ stand... unsuccessfully. By the time they rolled by the high school, thanks to Meger, they had music. Sixty per cent of the nation’s wallpaper is produced in Joliet, Illinois, Brea; Bill Gallienne of Huntington Beach and H. F. Kennedy of Newport Harbor was the SQR store’s version of two broomstick totin’ witches on their way to the moon. Kathleen and Angeleen Bishop, wearing sparkling silver costumes, were the so-called “witches”. Other winners taking part in the grand parade are listed as follows: Float carrying out “Hallowe’en Theme” and most comically designed: First award, S. H. Kress store; second award, 20-30 Club; third award, Johns-Manville-S. E. Whieldon company. Most effectively and artistically designed float carrying out “Halloween’en Theme”: Smith-Reaf-snyder Furniture company, first; Swanberger’s, second; Crawford’s Model airport, third.

Holiday Designs With the streets of Anaheim neatly swept after the Hallowe'en festivities of the night before, business owners and associates here were viewed Friday morning busily making their display windows shine again. Paisley patterns done in wax, candle stick, parafine and popular brands of soap, marked by a recurring demand for "Kilroy", were removed through varied and ingenious methods including the old standby, soap and water; kerosene; Bon Ami; razor blades, single edge and straight, with or without holders, and steel wool. The scraping and polishing procedure ranged from step-ladder to kneeling positions, and featured free demonstrations to pedestrians which often resulted in an experiment by a passerby.

County Elects New Sheriff As Thousands Flock to Polls in Smashing Republican-Favored Vote In one of the most amazing political landslides seen in many years, the Republicans took firm command of the Senate and House of Representatives from the Democratic party. Most experts had predicted a Republican Congress and a tie or a very small margin in the Senate. As of this writing the Republicans have won 246 seats to 187 for the Democrats in the House with two still in doubt. In the Senate with 48 seats needed for control the Republicans have 51 seats for sure, the best the Democrats can hope to do is 45. The solid South, of course, stayed solid and out of the many so-called left wingers, Helen Gahagan Douglas of California and Vito Marcantonio of New York were re-elected to a Congress where they will find almost none with the same leftist tendencies. The Democrats were literally and actually snowed under by an avalanche of ballots in favor of the Grand Old Party last Tuesday, Half-Way Mark Passed in City's Chest Drive Anaheim's Community Chest have proceeded smoothly along its week, slightly behind schedule but added donations graduallyelled the fund toward the goal $28,065.00.

Anaheim Shops to Observe Armistic Honor Armistice A great majority of the business district of the city will close on November 11, in order to observe Armistice Day. Also closing its doors on that day will be all local, county, state, and federal offices, thus enabling employees to take part in the day set aside honoring those who might and died in the first World War. STATE CONTROLLER THOMAS H. KUCHEL CLYDE WATSON (State Senator) Hunters Battle Denver Snow Caught in a snow storm were Harry Pearson, Frank Tausch and Glenn Peck, three members of a pheasant hunting party from this city. Leaving from Pierre, South Dakota, a day ahead of their partners, Ab and Red Cone, Art Wilmson, Joe Scholz and Herb Eldred, they dug their way out of Denver, Colorado, with shovels and chains to return here on Wednesday afternoon, behind the others. "We were snowed in solid for two-and-one-half days during one of the worst storms in the history of Denver", Tausch remarked. Pearson, when contacted by the Gazette, was highly unDemocrats can hope to do is no. The solid South, of course, stayed solid and out of the many so-called left wingers, Helen Gahagan Douglas of California and Vito Marcantonio of New York were re-elected to a Congress where they will find almost none with the same leftist tendencies. The Democrats were literally and actually snowed under by an avalanche of ballots in favor of the Grand Old Party last Tuesday. 80% Turnout! Voting Precinct No. 9 of Anaheim had a turnout of 80 per cent of its registered voters. This precinct has a total of 854 voters and 804 of that number voted. There are indications that several voters may have moved since the registration list was made up, while it is definitely known that several of them were out of the city and were unable to cast their ballots. This is definitely conclusive evidence of the extreme enthusiasm which marked last Tuesday's election. as millions of voters all over the country moved to the polls in record-breaking numbers. California's senatorship went to Republican William F. Knowland, incumbent, who defeated Will Rogers Jr., representing the Democratic ticket. Knowland defined his position on foreign policy as "fair, but firm, with no appeasement", and stated that he would continue to support the United Nations. Governor Earl Warren retained his office, having captured both major party nominations. Also receiving little or no opposition were Secretary of State Frank Jordan, Controller Thomas H. Kuchel, Treasurer Charles G. Johnson and William G. Bonelll, member of the state board of equalization. Congressman John Phillips of Banning, recaptured his post by an appreciable margin, leading in Orange county alone by a margin of more than 10,000 votes. Ray Adkinson, former Orange county superintendent of schools, was runner-up in this contest. Judge Goodwin J. Knight of Los Angeles finished the race with a whopping majority over John F. Shelley for the office of lieutenant-governor, as did Fred Howser of Los Angles who bested Observe Armistic Honor Armistice A great majority of the business district of the city will close on November 11, in order to observe Armistice Day. Also closing its doors on that day will be all local, county, state, and federal offices, thus enabling employees to take part in the day set aside honoring those who might and died in the first World War. With this national holiday falling on a Monday this year, an "long week-end" will be enforced by most business houses. Elliott Brothers New Restaurant Owners Here Three brothers, all veterans, reveal, Sam and Hank Elliott, all this city, have leased the restaurant at 101 East Center street, merely known as L. A. Spivey's. Old and black lettering on the edge plate glass windows announcing "Elliottts' Spanish and American Food" was completed yesterday afternoon. Appropriate specialty of the dining center will be Spanish delicies. American food is also the menu. All three of the Elliott brothers ended local schools. Hank is graduate of Fullerton junior college. Each received his discharge from the armed forces less than a year ago. Orveal was in the Army. Sam and Henry lived in the Navy in the South Pacific theater. Mr. and Mrs. D. K. Williams of 2002 North Olive street welcomed a son who arrived last Monday at the Fullerton Cottage hospital tipping the scales at seven pounds and two ounces. Dakota, a day ahead of their partners, Ab and Red Cone, Art Wilmson, Joe Scholz and Herb Eldred, they dug their way out of Denver, Colorado, with shovels and chains to return here on Wednesday afternoon, behind the others. "We were snowed in solid for two-and-one-half days, during one of the worst storms in the history of Denver", Tausch remarked. Pearson, when contacted by the Gazette, was highly uncommunative. He did reveal that Tausch didn't allow quite enough edge distance between his thumb and the muzzle of the 12-gauge shot gun he borrowed from Ted Kuchel for the occasion. Seems Tausch's big mittens were a handicap. One needs mending. "In South Dakota's capitol city, Pierre, it was so cold even the pheasants were under cover", they said. Three potential hunting days were ruined by frigid temperatures. However, the group sent a good supply of delectable fowl home by air freight. The local hunters left Anaheim October 21. Pearson, Tausch and Peck returning by the way of Scotts Bluff, planned to continue an uninterrupted journey via Cheyenne and Salt Lake City. They started through Pueblo and Colorado Springs and stopped in Denver. THE REINERTS RETURN HERE AFTER EXTENDED TRIP Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Reinert of 217 North Helena street, returned here last Friday after enjoying an extended vacation trip in North Dakota, their former home; and visiting with relatives in Iowa and Colorado. From the time they left, September 22, their vacation was marked by exceptionally good weather, the Reinerts stated happily. Iowa boasts of an immense corn crop this year, which averages from 100 to 120 bushels per acre, he remarked. Congressman John Phillips of Banning, recaptured his post by an appreciable margin, leading in Orange county alone by a margin of more than 10,000 votes. Ray Adkinson, former Orange county superintendent of schools, was runner-up in this contest. Judge Goodwin J. Knight of Los Angeles finished the race with a whopping majority over John F. Shelley for the office of lieutenant-governor, as did Fred Howser of Los Angles who bested Edmund G. Brown of San Francisco for the office of attorney-general. Orange county voted in a new sheriff in the form of Jim Musick, 36, who had been a Marine corps captain during the war and a member of the county's probation department. Jesse L. Elliott, veteran sheriff of the county who had been seeking his third four-year term, will turn over his post to Musick on the first of the year. Claude Watson of Orange, assemblyman from the 74th district, was elected over Jim Farquhar, Huntington Beach publisher. Watson will fill the unexplored term left by Thomas H. Kuchel, who was appointed State Controller by Governor Earl Warren on the passing of Harry B. Riley last spring. Kuchel received both Republican and Democrat nominations in the June primary and in last Tuesday's election resumed his post by a staggering majority. Assemblyman Sam Collins of the 75th district (Anaheim) was assured of his seat due to his triumph in the June primary election as was Earl W. Stanley of the 74th district, which includes the southern part of the county south of the Santa Ana river. Collins, who has long been the Republican leader in the state assembly, by his showing in this election may be the new speaker of the California legislature. Go to Church Sunday!
