COLONY QUIPS
On next Sunday we commemorate the great festival of Easter. This harbinger of spring means many things to many peoples. We celebrate Easter as the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. In these times we can think of no better greeting for Easter than the words of Jesus Himself: "Peace be to you."
Those who reject God today are the same ones who stand in the way of peace and it takes no seer to know about whom we are talking.
Only a firm faith in God can give true peace to the individual, to the family, to the nation and to the world. Where God is rejected, peace is destroyed.
Our hope for this Easter is that you have a renewal of your love for God and a full measure of the peace that passeth all understanding.
We, the people, have been sold a lot of baloney by Washington bureaucrats who have told us repeatedly that high taxes were necessary to skim off surplus purchasing power; thus decreasing the cost of goods and services and stopping the inflationary spiral. This bureaucratic buncomb is in exact variance with the facts that we have found out to our sorrow.
We bring you below the clear statement of Reese H. Taylor, president of the Union Oil Co., relative to the situation as this large and, by its record, well managed company, finds it:

EASTER SERVICES IN LOCAL CHURCHES OPEN TO PUBLIC
Almost two thousand years ago Jesus Christ was fied, dead and buried; on the third day He arose from dead and sitteth on the right hand of God, the Father mighty.' To commemorate His resurrection our church celebrate Easter this Sunday. Every place of worship will open and ready to receive its communicants for the E services. It is, perhaps, the most important day in the calendar and all should make a special effort to attend.
Rains Soak Parched Lands, Bring Smiles
Wednesday morning there came a sight that gladdened the hearts of all. The rain came and seemed bent on staying for a while. The dry northern part of the state was also getting a good wetting and even water-rationed Santa Barbara got over an inch in a few hours of precipitation. The weather man said the storm would hit here in the south late Tuesday and the people looked in vain for some clouds to blot out the sun.
All the churches have been decorated to bring out the revered and symbolic beauty of the casion and all are ready to Christian message of peace. It is a standing invitation to with no affiliation to attend be made welcome.

We bring you below the clear statement of Reese H. Taylor, president of the Union Oil Co., relative to the situation as this large and, by its record, well managed company, finds it:
The theory that high taxes tend to curb inflation is directly contrary to the facts. For the greatest single purchaser of many items in today's market of limited supply is the government. To maintain national productivity, individual companies and corporations must purchase needed materials and supplies in the face of government competition for these materials, no matter what the cost, or go out of business. In the same manner, people must purchase food in competition with the government, who is a very large purchaser in this line, no matter what the cost. And as long as the national budget remains at its presently high level, the government purchasing power will not only tend to increase the inflationary spiral, but the dangerously high tax rate which exists will become increasingly more burdensome on the 142,000,000 people who, in the end, are the ones who actually pay all taxes.
Contrast, in you will, the terrific difference we find in the way our local city government is run. You will find, this week, in the advertising columns of the Gazette the story of how our new $75,000 sub-station is being paid for without having to resort to an increase in taxes or a bond issue. If the federal fiscal arrangements had as much sense we would have little kick coming.
With many unemployed people in California it is still necessary to import Mexican nationals to meet the picking requirements of the citrus industry. There are many camps in our central valley containing hundreds of unemployed workers who simply do not want to work in the orange groves. The State department of Employment made a cabin to cabin, tent to tent and trailer to trailer check in Fresno county of people who needed work and could not interest a single one to go to work. The department then went on the air with a strong appeal for agricultural workers, set
Wednesday morning there came a sight that gladdened the hearts of all. The rain came and seemed bent on staying for a while. The dry northern part of the state was also getting a good wetting and even water-rationed Santa Barbara got over an inch in a few hours of precipitation. The weather man said the storm would hit here in the south late Tuesday and the people looked in vain for some clouds to blot out the sun in the afternoon. The early evening also was clear with beautiful moonlight making things almost as bright as day. Then about nine o'clock some white fleecy clouds appeared in the southeast, gradually increased in size and a couple of hours later covered the heavens. Wednesday dawned overcast and before now...the rains came. Thursday started out bright but the clouds hanging around the horizon bear out the weatherman's statement that another storm is on the way.
Friday of last week .1 of an inch of rainfall was recorded on the rain gauge at the Associated Laboratories on West Lincoln. At the city power plant on South Los Angeles street, the gauge did not register any precipitation, but on Wednesday of this week they registered .47 of an inch, the rainfall beginning at 11 a.m. and lasting until about 3:30 p.m., not a hard rain but a slow soaking rain. The Associated Laboratories recorded a total of .67 inch on Wednesday.
The total rainfall for the season stands at 4.58 inches as compared with 10.19 inches for last year.

The State department of Employment made a cabin to cabin, tent to tent and trailer to trailer check in Fresno county of people who needed work and could not interest a single one to go to work. The department then went on the air with a strong appeal for agricultural workers, set up an office to handle the applicants. Not one showed up. None.
With a roof over their heads, a sack of beans in the pantry and they are just not interested. We have a sack of beans at home, too, but the darn thing keeps going down. If you are not smart enough to get another without working, why you just have to work. Maybe these folks are just smarter. We give up and stay on the job.
One thing we have learned from the California visit of the Freedom Train is that more people want to see its immortal documents than can possibly be crowded through in the brief stopovers. After this tour is completed why not have another with visits to more of the smaller towns and longer stops in the bigger ones?
Is the balcony that Mr. Truman is building on the White House going to be strong enough to support an elephant?
Some of the new homes of today are so small that they leave one no room to complain.

TEXAS GRAPEFRUIT SELLS POORLY IN CALIFORNIA
Several loads of Texas grapefruit arrived in the Los Angeles area last week. The first of the Ruby Red variety showed as high as 50 per cent blister decay and showed very poor demand. This fruit was jobbed out at $2.50. Another shipment of Marsh Pinks came with a much higher quality this fruit being jobbed out at $5.50. The demand was reported as only fair. About the same situation prevailed in the San Francisco area, the movement there being a little better there than in the south. No additional loads have been reported arriving in California so far.

AGRICULTURAL INCOME SHOWS CONTRAST FROM OTHER YEARS
Citrus Market Nearly Even At Mid-Season
The movement of southern California navels to market passed the half-way point last week and with current prorate together with the elimination of the frost damaged fruit there should not be many more than some 6,000 cars yet to go in inter-state shipment. The market continued quite satisfactory with the larger showing a continuink uptrend on the larger sizes. The smaller sizes brought a lower price but not enough lower to make any appreciable change in the week's average. The marketing experts expect little change in the current prices and an increase in demand may come due to the expected entrance of Canada into the market. On April 1, our northern agriculture poured almost $76,000,000 into the lap of Orange county in 1947, which amounted to only six percent less than the 1946 income and about 19 percent less than the all time peak of 1945. The lowered income was almost entirely borne by citrus producers who, while increasing output almost 46 percent, still showed a decrease in gross value of nine percent.
Truck crop production was down 4½ percent under last year.
Of all major branches of agriculture, only field crops showed increase, both in acreage and returns. Acreage devoted to beans, sugar beets, grains and hay soared 6 percent, with income to growers up 8 percent over last year and almost double the 1945 income for these crops.
Every other branch of agriculture showed decreases in net income, excepting nursery stock which increased nominally in value.
Deputy Agriculture Commissioner Black's report, gathered from confidential data submitted by producers themselves, showed

JAMES A. BAKER
Announcement today by County Supervisor James A. Baker of his candidacy for re-election as third district representative on the county board, drew attention to the impressive record of advancement made in county affairs during his administration.
With water supply of first importance to the county, the present county administration has worked constantly on a program to develop and conserve water, the announcement pointed out, and is currently expending approximately $168,000 on facilities at Prado dam that will add an estimated 8,000 acre feet annually to the supply.
Ranking scarcely below water supply in importance, inauguration of a comprehensive county-wide sanitation program to provide sewerage for the rapid expansion in the years ahead, was noted as an achievement of the present county board, which is assisting in working out a program acceptable to both rural and urban areas.
