FISHERMAN'S LUCK Bob Williams and his family were back this week from a fishing trip which took them as far east as Yellowstone National Park. They found cut-throat trout up to two and a half pounds eager to take the fly in the Yellowstone river and nearby lakes. The Madison Nez Perce and the Fire Hole provided poor fishing. In Glacier National Park the trout were somewhat more plentiful but small. Fishing in the Teton national forest and in the Jackson Hole country was disappointing. Coming over to the coast, they found the Rogue river no good, as usual at this time of the year, but salmon fishing in the lower Klamath was really "hot." The liveliest fishing they found on the whole trip however was for salmon in the ocean off Trinidad Head. Albacore fishing slackened last midweek but picked up again towards the weekend. A party from the Anaheim office of the Pacific Lighting corporation took 11 albacore Friday and seven on Saturday. Fishermen who have tried Lake Henshaw recently say crappie and bluegills are taking flies and floating lures. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Sackett report fair corbina and spotfin fishing in the surf at Seal Beach. NEW DAUGHTER Welcoming a baby daughter were Mr. and Mrs. Clarke Scott of 414 South Melrose avenue. She arrived in the Anaheim hospital. To continue the list, the Congress completely reorganized the Legislative branch of the government, but much more important than that, it began to bring the legislative functions of the government back to Capitol Hill. People do not always realize how many of the functions have felt more at home in the White House for the past decade than they have on the Hill. Now they are coming back where they belong. For the first time in 50 years, the House of Representatives is starting to exercise an influence over the foreign policies of the United States, through the control of the purse. Bills are being heard under conditions where the people can express their opinions. This delayed some bills, and many of the folks at home became impatient. The Congress passed at least 27 bills directly affecting the veterans, and gave every dollar to the Veterans Administration which was needed for services, payments, or care for the veterans themselves. I know, for that is my sub-committee. No nation, in all the history of the world, ever did so much for the veterans of its wars, as this nation has done for its veterans. These men fought, after we were threatened from Europe and attacked from the Orient, to preserve our liberties, and our form of government, and to save this country for themselves, their families, and future generations. They did not fight to be eligible to some 52/20 Club, nor does the United States owe everyone a living for having once worn a uniform. The veterans themselves were voted out, and the committee vote was 20 to 0. The other matter I want the people to be clear about is that no man or woman, boy or girl, any nearer to war, because of this bill, than he or she would have been without it. If war occurred men in training under this plan would not be in the service directly. They would be drafted just as in W. W. I or in W. W. II except that those who had this training would have a little better chance, in my opinion, after obeying three wars, to come back home, or to come back whole. In W. W. I we saw men sent to combat with sometimes as little as six weeks training. We had a promise that this would not happen in W. W. II, but we still saw men sent into combat with less fundamental training than they should have had. It is a long cry from the men of the revolution or the war between the states who came from farms, who knew how to take care of themselves out doors, who had handled and shot rifles, and who could take cover. A good boy scout knows more today about handling himself in the field than the average draftee. Some say that atomic warfare makes such a bill unnecessary. In my opinion it makes the bill more necessary than ever, and you must keep in mind that I am on the committee that must know about our progress in atomic energy, and that much of this is top secret. If war should come, we would never again have a preliminary period to prepare ourselves, while other nations hold the enemy at bay. Fishermen who have tried Lake Henshaw recently say crappie and bluegills are taking flies and floating lures. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Sackett report fair corbina and spotfin fishing in the surf at Seal Beach. NEW DAUGHTER Welcoming a baby daughter were Mr. and Mrs. Clarke Scott of 414 South Melrose avenue. She arrived in the Anaheim hospital Sunday, tipping the scales at seven pounds, five and one-half ounces. Gazette want ads bring results. STORES A BUSHEL OF FROZEN FOODS 1947 SERVEL It established a National Science Foundation but the President veoed that too. It passed constructive laws affecting agriculture. It authorized 21 investigations, and Congressional committees and subcommittees will spread like a rash from California to Italy. I rise to remark that I hope these committees will do better jobs than the Senate committee did with the Hughes-Meyer-Roosevelt fiasco now drawing to an inglorious conclusion here. The Congress enacted 400 Laws. It answered 133 roll calls. Now it is going home. This letter is written on the day before I leave for Banning by the slower route mentioned in an earlier letter. It will be good to see California. When this appears, we'll be somewhere between Colorado and Banning, depending on the plans of various Congressional committees. If we have time, we'll drive up through the Jackson Hole country to see for ourselves why there should be so much argument over that monument. If the committees are already in southern California, then we'll undoubtedly be there. Some say that atomic warfare makes such a bill unnecessary. In my opinion it makes the bill more necessary than ever, and you must keep in mind that I am on the committee that must know about our progress in atomic energy, and that much of this is top secret. If war should come, we would never again have a preliminary period to prepare ourselves, while other nations held the enemy at bay. So the bill, which is out of committee and waiting for a rule to bring it to the floor, calls for six months training, after each citizen is 18, with 17 optional. The service can be delayed to finish high school. Another six months may be taken (1) in this same training corps; (2) in the National Guard; (3) by enlistment in the Reserve Corps; (4) by voluntary enlistment in the regular services; (5) by appointment to the Academies; (6) by enrollment in the officer procurement programs; (7) through R. O. T. C. training, plus an agreement to accept a commission if offered; (8) by service in the Merchant Marine; (9) by enlistment in special technical training courses; or (10) by six years reserve training, one month each year. I have shortened these; anyone interested may have a copy of the bill by writing your Congressional office in Washington. The bill will be discussed at length on the floor; amendments will be offered and I expect some of them will be accepted. It is the way with all bills of this importance. It will then go to the Senate, and through committee hearings there, then to the floor for more discussion and action. Finally it will go to a conference committee to iron out the differences. Then it will go to the president. Only when he signs it, will it be a law. It may see changes before then. That is the way all laws are made. It is an important bill, important to the future safety of the people of the United States. Accepts Civilian Applications Lieut. Edward F. Tully, commanding officer of the U.S. Army and Air Force Recruiting Service, today announced that applications from civilians will be accepted by the Air Force, for the Primary Pilot training class opening on self in the field than the average draftee.

When this appears, we'll be somewhere between Colorado and Banning, depending on the plans of various Congressional committees. If we have time, we'll drive up through the Jackson Hole country to see for ourselves why there should be so much argument over that monument. If the committees are already in southern California, then we'll undoubtedly be there. So, before I go, I'll leave these notes on a very controversial bill; which will be before us next session. The folks at home refer to it as the discussion over "compulsary military training." It is officially known as the "National Security Training Act of 1947," which of course will be changed to 1948, unless we have a special session, and the bill is brought up then. There are two things that really should be cleared up at the start. A lot of letters recently have spoken about "star chamber methods." I can think of no bill, in the time I have been here, to which that criticism could less rightly be applied. Two committees investigated this subject and held hearings, before it got to the regular committee this year. More than 2000 pages of testimony were taken and witnesses from every group and every shade of thought were listened to patiently. Even after this was done, and before the bill was reported out, supplementary hearings were opened. It was here that the criticism apparently started. These latter hearings were necessarily short. The testimony had become repetition. It could have continued for years, but little if anything new would have been presented, and the action on the bill would simply have been delayed. So the bill Accepts Civilian Applications Lieut. Edward F. Tully, commanding officer of the U.S. Army and Air Force Recruiting Service, today announced that applications from civilians will be accepted by the Air Force, for the Primary Pilot training class opening on Wednesday 15 October. Qualifying examinations in the west will be given on 8-12 September. Openings in the class have occurred, explained Lieut. Tully, because of a change in regulations which now limits the age to 20-26½. The previous age limits were 18-26½. In order to apply for this Aviation Cadet training an applicant must be an unmarried male citizen, 20-26½ years old, have two years of college or be able to pass an examination equivalent. He must be of excellent character sound physique, and in good health. "For the past year, I have been swamped with applications for Cadet training," said Lieut. Tully, "but I have not been able to offer vacancies until now and anticipate a large number of applications. Of course, the class can accommodate only so many men and it will be a case of "first come, first served." The actual entrance examinations will be held on 8-12 September at Mathur Field, Sacramento, California so there is very little time left I urge every interested young man in Orange County to act quickly." Application blanks can be obtained at the U.S. Army and Air Force Recruiting Station at 202½ W. 3rd street, or City Hall, Room 109, Fullerton, or from any Air Force base.
