Hot Issues Up to Voters Next Tuesday (Continued from Page 1) of widest interest, Proposition 2 and Proposition 12 both relate to regulation of liquor. Of the two measures the liquor interests are concentrating their fire mainly on Proposition 12 which gives local governing bodies, city or county "or the voters thereof," power to pass upon granting of licenses to "on" or "off" sale places or business. Liquor industry leaders call this "prohibition" and their advertising and radio announcements give the impression that California is about to vote again on something like the 18th amendment. Proposition 2 is much milder in its prohibitions. It provides no unescorted lady may be served at a bar but must sit at a table, regulates presence of minors in places where liquor is sold, and also says how much light there shall be in such places and how clean it must be kept. Proposition 13 provides for reapportionment of the state Senate. Instead of on a territorial basis as at present, the proposed measure would base senatorial representation upon population. The effect would be to give the great majority of senatorial seats to Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco and Alameda counties, as is now the case with assembly seats. Proposition 13 is opposed not alone by rural interests but by many organizations and civic leaders in the cities. Veterans tax exemptions, the "full train crew law," aid for the aged and blind, regulation of fishing inland and off-shore waters, the much controverted state housing act and payment by state to counties which have lost through tax exemptions voted by the whole state are among the other controversial measures. County Schools Ask $5,766,000 Total in Bonds (Continued from Page 1) present schools. Trabuco canyon district will vote on November 9 on a $16,000 bond proposal. Costa Mesa has a school bond issue election coming up on November 16 when it will vote on a $295,000 bond proposal for additional elementary school accommodations, and on November 27 La Habra elementary school district will vote upon a proposal to issue $400,000 for additional school facilities. Also Katella school district voted $85,000 in bonds a few weeks ago but owing to a dispute over the advertising of the issue, must hold another election. Thus, within a few weeks school districts in Orange county have voted or soon will vote upon a total of $5,766,000 in bonds for additional school facilities.

Store, the name it carries today, and moved to a new location on the southwest corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, now the McCoy Drug Company, where the store remained until in 1926. Due to the growth of the business and the crowded condition of the store, the owners decided to build a fine new building on their lots on the southwest corner of Center and Lemon street, present location of Anaheim's leading department store. In 1941, he was married to Martha K. Schneider, who survives him. Mr. Schumacher loved every inch of Anaheim and was constantly working for the betterment of the city and its various projects. He was interested in Red Cross work and the Community Chest. He was an early member of the National Guard and was on duty at the time of the big earthquake and fire in San Francisco; a charter member of the Kiwanis club of this city and had a perfect attendance record of about 20 years, his recent bad health marring that record; a member of the Elks Lodge of Anaheim, the Masonic Lodge of this city; the IOOF of this city; Izaak Walton league; the Jonathan club of Los Angeles; a past director of the Chamber of Commerce; a member of the Knights of Pythias; forty years a director of the Savings Loan and Building Association of this city and other civic organizations and committees. Survivors other than his wife are four brothers, Jake Schumacher of Anaheim, John Schumacher of McFarland, Calif., David and Max Schumacher of Los Angeles; two sisters, Mrs. Louise Eymann of Anaheim, and Mrs. Elmo Calkins of McFarland; six pieces, Mrs. Florence Eymann Heffern of Anaheim, Mrs. Marjorie Calkins Wankum of McFarland, Mrs. Maxine Schumacher Blazic and Mrs. Helen Schumacher Templin, both of Los Angeles, and Elaine and Nelda Schumacher, both of Anaheim, and two nephews, Leland Eymann of Long Beach and Max Schumacher, Jr., of Los Angeles. Funeral services were held Wednesday morning at 10:30 o'clock at the chapel of Backs, Campbell and Kaulbars mortuary before a large concourse of friends who mourn his passing. The Rev. Howard S. Congdon, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of this city, brought words of condolence for the last rites. Entombment was in Fairhaven mausoleum. Six employees from The S. Q. R. Store were pallbearers. "HANK" SAYS ... A former pilot in the Army Air Corps was enlisted this week as a Staff Sergeant in the U.S.Air Force. He is William F. Long. A former pilot in the Army Air Corps was enlisted this week as a Staff Sergeant in the U.S. Air Force. He is William F. Long, 26, 523 Mission street, Buena Park, who served nearly five years during World War II. His foreign service between 1943 and 1945 in the south Pacific resulted in the award to him of the Air Medal with 5 oak leaf clusters. A navy veteran of over six years service, two years of which was served in the Pacific, returned this week by enlisting for a six year term in the U.S. Air Force. He is Frank C. McBride, 24, who has resided with his wife and two sons at 9141 Moody avenue, Buena Park. Because of his previous service he was enlisted in the grade of Staff Sergeant. A lot of men are coming into the office and asking "what's the deal on this European Occupation duty?" Since the word went out that men 17 to 34 are being accepted for duty in Europe we've been busy. Its no wonder because just about everyone I know wants a chance to see Europe, whether he's been there before or not. And Army duty in the American Zone is sure a good way of seeing it. So here's the word: men 17 to 34, with or without prior service, may enlist for a three year hitch with either the First Infantry Division or the U.S. Constabulary. These two units have fabulous reputations. Speaking of that, the First Division and the Constabulary are sending a special recruiting team to southern California in the near future, so that anyone interested can get first hand account of how things are over there...and I can guarantee that they aren't bad. But southern California has only a small quote, and the dead line for enlistment in this unit is December 31.
