Representatives from the Orange County Federation of Women's Clubs, Las Amigas Study club, Ebell club and Orange Seizure of State Tidelands Great Concern to State Of great concern to tax payers and citizens of the state of California is the proposed seizure of state tidelands by the Federal Government which would reduce the revenue to each of the counties in the state by the loss of taxes and revues of other sorts. In a communication from the County Supervisors Association of California they state: "Seizure of California's tidelands would add 1,920,000 acres to the Federal Government's tax-exempt holdings in the state, and extend Washington's landlord-grip to more than 50 per cent of the state's entire land area. "The Association denounced the tidelands grab as 'barefaced confiscation' and cited it as proof of the need to obtain relief for California counties from a Federal policy 'which is eating away our local tax base.'" "As an example of the direct stake every county of California has in the loss of local taxes through Federal ownership, Frederic L. Alexander, general manager of the association pointed out that Orange county property with an estimated assessed value of $21,939,603 is owned by Washington. "Removal of the property from local tax rolls represents an estimated annual tax loss of $560,140 to the county." "The California area now in Federal hands—including metropolitan and rural holdings—represents 46.84 per cent of the state's land surface of 100,353,920 acres."

Company Puts Second Unit Into Operation More steam-generated electric power became available for the Southern California Edison Companysystem today (April 8) when a second new generating unit went into service at the company's Redondo Beach steam station. Operation of the new unit, of 66,000 kilowatt capacity, followed by less than two months the completion of an initial unit of like capacity. The addition of the two units has brought the Edison Company's total hydro and steam-electric operating capacity to 1,526,180 kilowatts. Construction of buildings to house two more generating units is under way at the Redondo station. These two additional units, each of 66,000 kilowatt capacity, when installed in less than two years from now, will bring the station's capacity to 264,000 kilowatts. In addition to the $37,000,000 Redondo steam station, Edison's plant expansion program includes new hydro-electric generating capacity for the company's power development at Big Greek in the High Sierra. An additional generating unit of 35,000 kilowatt capacity is now being added to Big Creek plant number 3.

VOTE NEXT TUESDAY — Estimated total tax loss to California counties from these Federal holdings is $34,979,103 annually. This loss inflicts direct additional tax burdens on counties, cities, school districts and special districts, since Federally controlled property pays no part of the tax bill. "In the case of the tidelands, Alexander pointed out that property of an undetermined value,' but certainly running into the hundreds of millions of dollars,' would be removed from tax rolls should the Federal Government carry out its confiscatory program. "Likewise, revenue produced from natural resources on the lands, which last year yielded $8,500,000 in royalties, would be lost to the state treasury, Alexander emphasized. "The association, which is currently backing legislation in Congress to obtain in lieu payments to the state covering Federal land holdings, considers the confirmation of state title to the tidelands as 'vitally important to every California taxpayer.' A bill renouncing the Federal claim to the tidelands is now before Congress."
