Arizona Project Costlier Than Hoover Dam Merely constructing the initial part of the proposed Central Arizona irrigation project would be five times costlier than the total expended on building the Boulder Canyon Project, according to Harry C. Morgan, executive secretary of the Colorado River Association. While the overall cost of the project would be approximately $1,000,000,000, Morgan explained, the initial phase, that involving the Parker pumping route, would cost in excess of $600,000,000. "The $600,000,000 which would be expended for the Parker pumping route," said Morgan, "would amount to five times the cost of the Boulder Canyon project. It is also about the same as the estimated cost of the proposed St. Lawrence Seaway. "The Parker pumping route is envisioned as part of the $1,200,-000 aqueduct which it is proposed ultimately to construct," continued Morgan. "This aqueduct would be built from Parker Dam, and would lift the water 1,000 feet to join the ultimate Bridge Canyon aqueduct part way to the Phoenix area, where it is proposed to use the water." The branch aqueduct, it was pointed out, would be built before constructing the tunnels more than 80 miles long, which would transport the water from the main aqueduct to Central Arizona, bypassing Hoover Dam. "About one-third of the Bridge Canyon power would be used to lift the water the necessary 1,000 feet. The remaining two-thirds would be sold, with most of the potential customers residing in California." A bill authorizing the construction of the Central Arizona Project was introduced in the Senate during the last session of the 80th Congress. Countering this move were resolutions offered in the House and the Senate just before adjournment, which would refer the Arizona-California water controversy to the Supreme Court for adjudication.

C. PENNEY ANAHEIM STORE 124 W. Center Anaheim WASHINGTON As Seen By CONGRESSMAN JOHN PHILLIPS Another reason for the spiral of rising costs, in addition to the recent spending of the past fifteen years, for unproductive work, is course the increased buying. I am not saying that this is good or bad; I am only saying that it is. Before the war, the average American ate about 125 pounds meat a year; today the average almost 160 pounds. Ten years ago eggs sold for 30 cents a dozen we ate 300 a year on the average; today, with eggs selling at cents, we average over 375. The inflation has increased greatly; think we have about 12,000,000 people than ten years ago. Export for foreign relief. These items, eggs and meat, are real. Rise again to remark, we must take the facts. The President suggested first that we eat less. He meant cut down the small me buying; that's already cut off. He was simply pointing out situation shown above. Three net members agreed with him. Senator Taft said the same and the columnists and commentators gave him the razzle-dazzle. We lost 800,000,000 bushels this year, compared to last due to floods and dry weather. Ninety percent of the corn crop is fed to cattle and poultry. That's the way it goes. Production is the answer. Careful buying, until another crop season. Speaking of production, here are some figures about coal. There will be a cold winter in Europe, to add to the distress. You and I would think the people would make the production of coal an item of first importance. In 1946 the United States produced more than 500,000,000 tons of coal (soft) with 400,000 men working. Great Britain produced about 200,-000,000 tons with 650,000 men. In England, under a Socialist government, a coal miner produces about five tons a day. In Holland, the production is shown as 25 tons. In poor old capitalistic America, a miner digs 50 tons, under free enterprise, and lives better while digging it. Russia thumbed her nose at the so-called efficiency systems of the industrial nations, and turned around and installed the most rigorous system of all, in order to get out the coal. I do not want you to overlook the fact that the English mines are in deplorable condition, and need machinery and modernization, but that's all part of the system which made America strong. Health Group To Discuss Child Guidance Monday A panel discussion on child guidance will be a feature of the monthly meeting of the Orange County Health Council which will be held at 7:30 p.m. next Monday at Spurgeon school, 211 West Cubbon street, Santa Ana.

Armstrong Says Low Prices Due to Volume, Juice (Continued from page 1) 20 cars of Exchange fruit were in the manufacture of citrus products. Returns for juice oranges sent products plants will average one-third of the price realized during 1945-46, Armstrong said. This factor alone is largely insensitive for the low valencia fruits in those districts with dry diversion to products below small sizes or poor quality. While the canning of citrus offers a promising opportunity for increased consumption, outlet avails nothing to the farmer if citrus canning operates salvage basis and fails to pay cost of production for fruit in the canning," Armstrong said. "Not only does canning fail its way at the present time, but citrus juices in direct cut-competition to fresh fruit as source for juice." The start of the 1946-47 seaweed was an estimated carry-out of 16 million cases (24 cans) of canned citrus from Florida Texas. Consumption of citrus juices in the year closed was 60 million cases each case of canned citrus is equally equivalent to a packed fresh fruit. Change overseas exports were singly large considering the age of dollar exchange and prohibition of any citrus imbibition by many countries, including Britain and France. Apparently two and one-quarter boxes were exported, excluding Canada, which almost the maximum prewar volume.

The attendance is said to have set a record for the state, with an average attendance of 300 for the ten sessions. George Kellogg, Yorba Linda, chairman of the Farm Bureau Avocado Department invites all growers to attend the meeting tomorrow night. 2 Die in Fire In 'Jungle' Near Santa Ana Harry Mix, 56, and Ernest Merrill, 61, died Monday night in a fire under the west approach of the Santa Ana boulevard river bridge which for years had served as a "hobo jungle."

Center Street Anaheim 2052 Christmas Seal Campaign Begins Next Monday Silver anniversary bells will peal next Monday for the Orange County Tuberculosis and Health Association as it launches the 1947 Christmas Seal Fund drive, annual project designed to help prevent the dread lung disease. Twenty-five years ago the mail sale method was started and a program of health education begun. According to A. Haven Smith, association president, every district has had a prominent member on the board since the project's inauguration. Among those were Judge Ames, George Griffith, and R. W. Balch from Anaheim, A. W. McBride and W. M. Snow of La Habra, and Tom McFadden of Placentia. Progress could not have been made with the Christmas Seal campaign without the assistance of the county health department, headed by Dr. Edward Lee Russell and Dr. Erwin P. Brauner, or the help of Drs. Mary C. Block, Ellert E. Lundegaard and Mildred Wehly, Smith continued. Reviewing the history of the organization, president Smith told of the preventorium maintained by the association, until it found this method of T.B. control obsolete, of the case finding program and the establishing of the T.B. unit at the county hospital and its mobile x-ray service. More than 3,000 persons received free x-rays and chest examinations at the county hospital, a ser- Army Expands Schools For Bright Rookies The four new "Potential Leaders" school, conducted by the Regular Army for selected recruits who show evidence of superior intelligence and leadership potentialities, have been expanded to train a total of 1,200 potential leaders every six weeks. Designed to mold recruits with no previous military experience into enlisted leaders who can serve as non-commissioned officers in the Infantry, Artillery and other combat arms, the leadership courses already have proved so successful that they have been extended from four to six weeks. The four schools are Camp Jackson, S. C., Fort Dix, N. J., Fort Knox, Ky. and Fort Ord, Calif. Army officers report that although the first graduates did not complete training until last April, some already have been promoted to the grade of staff sergeant, while others are serving as corporals and sergeants. Graduates are appointed immediately to private first class. Students are chosen primarily on the basis of potential leadership ability. Consideration also is given to recent high school graduates who have served as officers in junior ROTC units, captains or managers of school athletic teams, Boy Scout leaders, editors of Former Anaheim Man Killed In Fall At Alameda Seaman Joseph Stroup, 36, Coast Guardsman who was killed in a fall at Government Island, Alameda, yesterday, lived for many years in Anaheim.

Reviewing the history of the organization, president Smith told of the preventorium maintained by the association, until it found this method of T.B. control obsolete, of the case finding program and the establishing of the T.B. unit at the county hospital and its mobile x-ray service. More than 3,000 persons received free x-rays and chest examinations at the county hospital, a service made possible by the sale of Christmas seals. The constructive case finding program was launched in schools in 1934 and the portable fluoroscope x-ray unit, financed with seals. In the same year, the organization undertook to underwrite the now well-known sanitarium magazine and later enhanced bi-monthly movies for patients after buying a projector so that educational films could be shown throughout the county.
