ANAHEIM GAZETTE Member Weekly Newspaper Ass'n of Orange County MENRY KUCHEL, Editor and Publisher 1887-1935 Mrs. Henry Kuchel — Theodore B. Kuchel Editors and Publishers The Anaheim Gazette has been owned and edited by the same family since 1875. Published every Thursday at 259 East Center Street, Anaheim, California. Phone 2206-2207. Entered as second-class matter at the Post Office at Anaheim, California, under the Act of March 8, 1897. Subscription Per Year, $2.00; 2 Years, $3.50; 6 Months, $1.25 BYRNES AND MARSHALL The resignation of Secretary of State James Byrnes is a blow not easily absorbed by our Nation in these difficult days of foreign affairs. Even the appointment of such an able individual as General George C. Marshall to succeed him cannot fully compensate for Byrnes' departure from what is undoubtedly the most important post in the Government next to the presidency. As our "Foreign Minister" Mr. Byrnes made great progress toward a better understanding with Russia. His policy of firmness with patience in dealing with Molotov—a policy which Henry Wallace called "tough"—has gradually paid off in the increasing willingness of the Russians to co-operate. Now, unfortunately, the value of his personal contact with the diplomat from the Kremlin as well as with representatives from other nations is lost. In taking over the reins General Marshall is pretty well aware of in need of financial help. Passenger fares may have to be upped. Efforts are also being made to get more money from Uncle Sam for airmail transportation. More money has to come from some source. So, the outlook is for rough flying weather probably for the next year or two. But the air industry will come through. It may experience a good many changes—as almost all industries have at one time or another—but in the end it will be stronger than ever. MARCH OF DIMES The March of Dimes, which extends from January 15 to 30, deserves the wholehearted support of Americans everywhere. This year the national goal is set at $24 million. The many millions of bright little dimes that will make up these millions of dollars will brighten the lives of thousands of persons who need help in combatting infantile paralysis. And that help will be given re- IN THE DAY Jan. 27, 1872 Anaheim lodge I. O. O. F., instituted last Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Masonic Lodge by R. W. G. W., Wm. H. Hill, assisted by D. D. G. M. Henry Wittenberg, and the following members of the order: Wm. Pridhit N. G., Jno. C. Brown, P. G., A. Faber, C. L. Minor, Jno. Osbj V. Wallenstein, John Dolland Woodruff, J. Cohen, D. Scherl L. Roeder, H. Slassford, S. Zener After the institution the parish marched to Kuchel's where the following officers were publicly installed in the preside of a large number of ladies and gentlemen: John Fischer, N. E. W. Champlin, V. G., John Zeyn, secretary; John Ada treasurer. At 5 o'clock the institution occurred at the lodge when eighteen new members added to the order. Later a surplus at the Planters hotel enlivened music from the band was enjoyed by all. A fine new flag staff was raised at the Planters hotel on Monday last and soon after the flag of United States went gaily up to mast head to the inspiring mast of "The Star Spangled Banner" and amid the hearty cheers of many loyal subjects of the great republic, as "mine host" Fishetoasted "long may it wave." We are glad to announce an inauguration of a new enterprise among us, Messrs. Goodman Rimpau, who, by-the-way, pioneer merchants of this country having been engaged in mercant pursuits in Los Angeles as early... ward a better understanding with Russia. His policy of firmness with patience in dealing with Molotov—a policy which Henry Wallace called "tough"—has gradually paid off in the increasing willingness of the Russians to co-operate. Now, unfortunately, the value of his personal contact with the diplomat from the Kremlin as well as with representatives from other nations is lost. In taking over the reins General Marshall is pretty well aware of the task before him. One important factor to his—and the Nation's—advantage is that as Chief of Staff during the war he was familiar not only with the military aspects of the overall war effort of the Allies but he gained a clear picture of the political angles as well. He is personally acquainted with a good many of the diplomats with whom he will deal. As one of the outstanding military men of modern times he commands their respect. Whether or not he will be able to cope with problems with the skill of his predecessor remains to be seen. It should be remembered however, that even Mr. Byrnes required a good many months before he began to get into the swing of his job. So we must be patient with General Marshall if there is a period of fumbling at the start. We cannot but regret Mr. Byrnes withdrawal at this crucial time, but we are sure that General Marshall will give his best—and his best has always been good enough in the past. TROUBLED SKIES As the year of 1947 gets under way the commercial skies indicate gloomy weather ahead for the American air transportation industry. With the packed passenger planes of the war period a thing of the past, and with sharply rising operations costs, the air industry is now going through a period of severe re-adjustment. Added to these problems is the blunt fact that in spite of all the progress made with instrument flying airlines still have to make wholesale flight cancellations when ever the weather really gets bad. Then too, the number of tragic crashes which have occurred during the past year haven't helped even though the degree of safety per passenger mile flown may have actually increased. Several of the biggest lines are still using black ink in their bookkeeping records. But most of MARCH OF DIMES The March of Dimes, which extends from January 15 to 30, deserves the wholehearted support of Americans everywhere. This year the national goal is set at $24 million. The many millions of bright little dimes that will make up these millions of dollars will brighten the lives of thousands of persons who need help in combatting infantile paralysis. And that help will be given regardless of the color, race or religion of the individual needing that help. The American people have shown on many previous occasions that they are not indifferent to the welfare of others, and this year's campaign will undoubtedly furnish further proof of that fact. The dimes are on the march. Be sure that your dimes—and dollars—help to swell their ranks. Give today! 1947 AUTO LICENSES The registration of motor vehicles in California this year is expected to be the heaviest in history. The registration period extends to midnight of February 4.

She has entirely recovered, however, and has been engaged for a season of four weeks by Al Hayman & Co. She opened in "Magda" and will play two weeks. The house was crowded and the gift actress was given a cordial reception. Marshal Steadman is engaged in praiseworthy task of lining gutter in front of the postoffice block with boulders he gathered in Santiago creek, the object being to afford a more perfect drainage and permit the storm water run off instead of accumulating pools about the hitching posts.

The hotel at Santa Ana is nearly completed, having been already partially painted. A large quantity of material for it was lost by the stranding of the steamer Caroline Medan near San Francisco, a short time ago, but more material is already shipped and will soon be here. Mr. Brookbank is now building a house 14 by 30 feet for the Anaheim Fire company in the rear of Enterprise hall in which to house the ladders, truck and other apparatus of the company.

In some cases the loss is believed to be as high as 25 per cent, but best qualities now believe that the will not be over 15 per cent on the entire crop on the trees. The county growers are rejoicing in inspection shows that throughout the county is incant. Anaheim maintains its reputation as the frostless land and damage is slight. The oldest inhabitant had to recall a day at Thursday. It snowed Anaheim! Snow fell on the hills and the pavements, on the existing gardens and the green cold orange trees and the full flowers. The flurry was short duration and the flakes stay with us long—melting as soon as they reached ground, but it was genuine something most of the nation never seen before extinct a distance on the snow-covered mountain peaks. Snow is used to be a product of winether, but the small snow cloud that passed over here have strayed out of its propellant as the thermometer registers 77 degrees above zero while sifting its velvet flakes upon us. Anaheim Lodge No. 199, I. O. O., celebrated its 50th birthday this night. The lodge was inaugural January 23, 1872. Among those present was N. H. Mitchell of Long Beach, only one living of the nine charter members. Max Nebelung was also present, he being one of a class of 18 initiated that evening. The lodge was organized and its officers installed in the Masonic hall on the southwest corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, in what was called the Davis block, where the S. Q. R. store is now located. The lodge afterwards met in Enterprise hall on North Los Angeles street, belonging to Mrs. Kuchel. The corner is now occupied by the Standard Oil company service station. In September, 1872, they built the two story brick building on the northeast corner of Los Angeles and Chartres street, where they met for several years. This property they sold to the Masons about three years after they built it. The Masons afterward selling to Korn and Zeyn whose heirs still own it. In 1906 the Odd Fellows erected the brick block on Center street, which they sill own. Judge J. S. Howard was granted leave of absence by the supervisors and has gone to Mexico to look after business interests. Judge French of Fullerton will handle his court business here during his absence.

M. L. McCreary, chief of Sixth Army Recruiting, declared today that partially disabled veterans are proving their worth as valuable soldiers in the new Regular United States Army and that the new policy of re-enlisting combat wounded men would be continued in the new year. Under the plan which was instituted some months ago, hundreds of army jobs falling into 103 different categories, were grown open for enlistment to partially disabled veterans of World War II who were wounded in combat. It is believed by proponents of the plan that many of these men would perform a satisfactory job and would welcome the opportunity of returning to uniform and regular salary instead of remaining dependent upon their government pension. "The response by disabled veterans has fully substantiated this brief," said Col. McCreary, "Not only have they welcomed the opportunity of earning their own pay, but they are proving to be good soldiers. That's why the army is continuing the program." While government pensions are suspended during the period of enlistment, applications for reinstatement may be made immediately after the disabled veteran is discharged, according to Col. McCreary. Of the 103 MOS covered by the plan, only 23 require previous qualified experience. Although experience is desirable in the other 60 MOS, it is not essential since the applicant who meets the revised physical requirements is given necessary training to make him proficient in the job to which he is assigned.
