SECRETARY OF STATE MARSHALL led the attack against Communistic Russia and its satellites at the very beginning of the meetings of the General Assembly of the United Nations, and he arraigned the Soviet Union for its course which he charged was blocking the peace and stability of the world and which must be stopped before it could wreck the United Nations. He asked the General Assembly to take drastic action to end Soviet "obstructionism." The Russians came back and spread all the filth and dirt that they could collect, going even so far as to call a member of the American delegation a "warmonger." There is no question but what a crisis has been reached at Flushing Meadows where fifty-five member nations are battling with questions that are unparalleled in diplomatic affairs. The entire American press has lined up in support of the proposals agreed upon by the United States and more than fifty nations, with only a few Communistic satellites supporting Russia. While all may not be going well with the United Nations, it is nevertheless clear that action will be taken to deny the power of veto which Russia has used to tie up the United Nations for two years. The top organization will rid itself of these frothy obstructions, precipitated by the Rus- There is no question but what a crisis has been reached at Flushing Meadows where fifty-five member nations are battling with questions that are unparalleled in diplomatic affairs. The entire American press has lined up in support of the proposals agreed upon by the United States and more than fifty nations, with only a few Communistic satellites supporting Russia. While all may not be going well with the United Nations, it is nevertheless clear that action will be taken to deny the power of veto which Russia has used to tie up the United Nations for two years. The top organization will rid itself of these frothy obstructions, precipitated by the Russians, and transfer the windjammers to a minor committee. In short, hopes are brightening for the success of the Marshall Plan. General Marshall has, himself, carried the fight to the Russians, and before many moons the United Nations will have the Commies licked out of their boots. That’s because we are 100 per cent right, and Soviets 101 per cent wrong. IN A SPEECH before the California Manufacturers Association, Mr. Harry McClelland, Vice-President of Bank of America said: "I have asked hundreds of young ex-service men from other states why they came back to settle in California. Without exception, their answers have been the same: 'Because I felt that a fellow has a better chance to get ahead.'" To provide these opportunities means that we must create more jobs—not a few jobs for the many to scramble over, but thousands of new jobs for the many to fill. Today, the possibilities for industrial development and expansion—and therefore, the possibilities for new jobs—are enormous, but we cannot sit back and "let nature take its course." If we do, we may find that our hopes and aspirations and those of our new residents will not be realized. All must cooperate toward the common goal. Businessmen must be alert for opportunities to expand their enterprises; labor must strive for ever-increasing productivity; and citizens must help supply the needed capital by keeping their money on deposit in banks where it can be mobilized for business development. In other words, if California is to fulfill the expectations of those who see it as a place to get ahead it must continue to go ahead itself. LAST MARCH 31, when the draft law was allowed to die new recruits were coming into the Army on their own accord at a rate adequate to maintain the peacetime force of 1,070,000 men. But since then things have changed. Now the number of enlistees is running well below the 30,000 a month necessary to hold the Army at its proper level. Already it has dropped about 100,000 below that level and is going down at the rate of 10,000 a month. Now, in these times we can't afford to let our military strength melt away. Some means must be found of bringing more recruits in and of inducing men already in the service to stay in. Just how this can be done is not easy to determine. The present day scale, the benefits and the oppor- IN THE DAYS OCTOBER 19, 1872 The surveying party of the Southern Pacific R. R. company under charge of Mr. Phelps, reached Anaheim last evening. Mr. Phelps reports he found good crossings to both rivers. The route passes through Mr. Vandiver's place, half a mile southeast of the college (Los Nietos) and comes into Anaheim a little southwest of Mr. Olden's place. The line strikes the northerly line of Willows at the end of Palm street and comes into town on that street. The survey will continue as far as Santa Ana where it terminates for the present. The party consists of twelve men with wagons, cam equipment, etc. Their camp is at the Coyote house. Cal Hyde, agent of the Southern Pacific R. R. Co., having applied to our water company for the privilege of using one of the streets of Anaheim for railroad purposes, the water company held a meeting yesterday and resolved the request be granted. The regular meeting of the Greeley and Brown club was held last night at the usual hour. A notable circumstance is the large number of new members—sixteen—making a total membership thou-far of 127. List of new members: J. M. Sears, Nathan Sears, E.Sears, Thompson Sears, Winifre Sears, J. Sears, J. T. Bottoms, H. Gregg, W. L. Greenup, T. Travis, F. Rodriguez, J. Rodriguez, Ju- 50 Ye- OUR DWINDLING ARMY But since then things have changed. Now the number of enlistees is running well below the 30,000 a month necessary to hold the Army at its proper level. Already it has dropped about 100,000 below that level and is going down at the rate of 10,000 a month. Now, in these times we can't afford to let our military strength melt away. Some means must be found of bringing more recruits in and of inducing men already in the service to stay in. Just how this can be done is not easy to determine. The present day scale, the benefits and the opportunities for special training are greater than at any time in our history. If these are not sufficiently attractive to our youth it's difficult to see what more can be done to bring them in voluntarily. Looking back it is now apparent that it was a mistake to abandon the draft law. Had that law been kept alive it could be invoked to bring in the needed men. But it is gone, and the likelihood of Congress passing another such measure is extremely remote at this time. Nevertheless, with its commitments throughout the world and the volatile international situation America must face the problem of its dwindling army. And the sooner it faces that problem the better. AMERICAN PATIENCE with the blustering, bullying tactics of Russia has worn pretty thin. This is particularly evident in the strong attack made by Secretary of State Marshall in the UN upon Soviet conduct within the organization and elsewhere. And it is safe to say that Marshall's actions are approved by the American people. In other words, we are now following a course of blunt opposition to further Russian aggression and expansionism. We are directly meeting political force with political force and indirectly, as in Greece, we are meeting military force with military force. In an article in the publication Foreign Affairs, Henry L. Stimson warns, however, that we must "make it wholly evident that a nonaggresive Russia will have nothing to fear from us." He points out that "Soviet intransigeance is based in very large part on the hope and belief that all non-Communist systems are doomed. Soviet policy aims to help them die." ANAHEIM GAZETTE must make it clear," he goes on, "that the Western nonnounist world is going to survive in growing economic political stability. If we can do this, then slowly—perless slowly than we now believe—the Russian leaders change their minds or lose their jobs." This approach to the Russian problem Mr. Stimson becomes a "middle course." And it appears to be a wise decision since it would swing neither to the extreme of apment on the one hand or to rash action on the other. PRESENT PASSES THE BUCK RESPONSIBILITY for a special session of Congress wholly within the discretion of President Truman and seems to be no reason why he should leave a decision in hands of four Congressional committees, expected to soon in Washington. The President will not be criticized if he calls a special sum of Congress on his own responsibility for the purwhich he has stated, "aiding France and Italy to surhis critical winter as free and independent nations." At the present time wide differences in public opinion throughout the nation as to what ought to be done said to Western Europe, and other international affairs problems. Inasmuch as President Truman is definitely worried of continuing the flow of American relief to Eurocountries there is no question but what it is up to him side, without waiting for the views of certain branches of Congress, among whose members there are wide differences of opinion upon these issues. FOR HANDICAPPED The statewide campaign now being planned to acquaint vers with the advantages of hiring physically handiworkers should have the support of all citizens. Many persons with physical disabilities are fully capable holding certain jobs and they should be given equal unity with those in good health to earn a living in jobs. James G. Bryant, State Director of Employment redeclared: Statistics show handicapped workers not only equal workers in production, but there is less labor turness absenteeism and fewer accidents on the job." 25 Years Ago OCTOBER 19, 1922 There are 2695 more voters in Orange county now than there were at the August primaries. County Clerk Jos. Backs has just completed a total list of the registration. The records show that there are 31,317 voters registered now as compared to 28,622 at the primaries, and 25,128 two years ago this month. There are 19,584 Republicans, 6291 Democrats.
