Behind the scenes, chattering teletypes feed information from all over the country to this huge board in our Traffic Control Bureau. In this long distance "nerve center" we help make sure each circuit is working at capacity... set up alternate routes to help relieve traffic jams and keep calls moving.
Your holiday calls are important... and we'll put through as many as we can... but there will be delays on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day — even though our circuits to the East are eight times their prewar number. So if you can call before or after December 24 and 25, you'll find service much faster.

In the Anaheim Ga-then stand by for actual Loot From Many Homes Found In Stolen Auto
In the custody of Orange county officials this week were two youths who were arrested by California Highway Patrolmen near Banning around midnight Monday night while driving a stolen car which contained an astonishing assortment of wrist watches, rings, pistols, cameras and $525 in small coins.
Anaheim police officers say one of the pair has admitted the articles, including the cash, were taken in a series of burglaries extending from Sacramento to Orange county.
The pair gave officers the names of Charles Wayne Riddle, 16, of Absarokee, Mont., and Allen Wayne Bowles, 23, of Gold Bar, Wash. County juvenile authorities have taken over the case of Riddle. Bowles was arraigned Wednesday before Judge John Shea in Anaheim township court on four counts of burglary, one of which is alleged to have been committed in Anaheim and three in Fullerton. Ball was set at $5000 and the preliminary hearing is on next Monday's court calendar.
Police say Bowles told them he stole the car, a 1941 Buick, in Oregon and he and Riddle whom he had met in Washington, drove down into California and stayed some time in the vicinity of Sacramento and Oakland where they committed some burglaries. They arrived recently in Orange county where, the police say, Bowles admitted five burglaries, including that at the Cortez Hoskins home, 320 West Alberta, the Anaheim Elks club, and three at Fullerton, including the breaking into the office of a physician.
Bowles was asserted to have told questioning officers that his interest on Bank of America savings accounts increased in the rate of interest on Bank of America savings accounts.
Bernard A. Savedra Passes Away Sat.
Bernard A. Savedra, eight male old son of Mr. and Mrs. M Savedra of Norwalk, passed away last Saturday. Funeral service were conducted at the chapel Backs, Campbell and Kaulm mortuary Tuesday morning at o'clock with interment in Sepulchre cemetery.
Surviving are his parents; brothers, Mike and Glen, both home; his grandfather, T. F. Yof Atwood and the grandmother Mrs. Helen Savedra of Los Angeles.
Bank of America Ups Interest On Savings Accounts
An increase in the rate of interest on Bank of America savings accounts has been authorized by the board of directors, according to announcement by President L. M. Giannini.
For the semiannual period beginning January 1, interest will be paid on savings account balances up to $10,000 at the rate of 1½ per cent per annum, compared with the rate of 1¼ per cent established a year ago when Bank of America reversed the downward trend of savings interest with an increase of 25 per cent. The new rate represents an increase of 50 per cent over the rate applying in 1946.
Interest on that portion of a savings account which exceeds $10,000, heretofore paid at the rate of one per cent per annum, will be increased to 1¼ per cent. To receive the interest, such excess funds must be continuously on deposit for the full semiannual period.
The extent to which the benefits of this additional increase will be reflected throughout California is indicated by the fact that savings accounts in Bank of America number about 2,400,000, averaging $991 each. Bank of America is the world's largest savings bank.

Australia Fears Overproduction Of Citrus Fruit
Like California, Australia is apprehensive of future over-production in its citrus industry. A recent conference held in Sydney, embracing representatives of the state departments of Agriculture and Commerce and growers from all of the mainland states, was called to survey production trends in that country. Reports of projected large-scale plantings revealed considerable reason for anxiety regarding over-production of citrus fruits during the next few years. The conference; therefore, voted unanimously to issue a warning against indiscriminate planting as a preventative for economic disaster in the industry generally.

County Produced $2740 in Silver And Gold in '46
(Western News Service)
California mining returns are on the upswing again, after a three-year war-time shutdown by the War Production Board.
This announcement was made by Olaf P. Jenkins, chief of the State Division of Mines, who said $12,488,840 in gold and $1,084,862 in silver was mined in California last year.
The one lode mine in Orange county produced a yield of 14 ounces of gold valued at $490, the report said. This figure excludes ore taken by itinerant prospectors, snipers, high-graders and others who gave no evidence to legal right to the gold.
Silver was produced largely as a by-product of zinc-lead mining, copper and gold mining, Orange county yielding 2,785 fine ounces valued at $2,250.
