American Education Week The observance of American Education Week this week under the theme “Strengthening the Foundations of Freedom” serves to remind us once again of the enormous importance of our public schools in the American way of life. Although the school problem in California is severe indeed, we have made more progress in some respects, at least, than most other states. More adequate salaries for teachers, increased outlays for school construction and state aid to needy school districts have been some of the forward steps. Improved school programs are giving the children a more practical education. Since American Education Week was inaugurated in 1921 much progress has been made toward improving our American school system. But in recent years the great exodus of teachers to better paying jobs and the tremendous increase in school population has created new and acute difficulties. One point which cannot be emphasized too strongly is that our public schools are the responsibility of all citizens—not just those with growing children. As all of us take a more active, alert interest in our educational system we shall have better schools and better on winning the farm vote by promising everything in sight to improve and advance agriculture. He got behind John L. Lewis the first big sit-down strike in the automobile industry, and furnished the ammunition by which Lewis won that strike—and many others—in the years that followed. President Roosevelt and his New Deal operation a one-man rule from the White House. One-man management of military and naval operations was bad dictatorship. His agreements with Stalin collapsed. How about President Harry S. Truman? He has successfully—almost alone—conducted the most successful campaign in history. Hats off to you, Old Top!—J. Jones, National Industries News Service. Dead End For a while on election night it appeared that the Dixiecrats might achieve their goal of throwing the ultimate selection of President into the House of Representatives. But as it turned out Mr. Truman didn’t run the 33 electoral votes which Thurmond tended away from him. Now, that they have ried their rebellion to the limit without gaining much if anything, the question is: Will the Dixiecrats do next? It is our guess that they’ll quietly drift back to the augurated in 1921 much progress has been made toward improving our American school system. But in recent years the great exodus of teachers to better paying jobs and the tremendous increase in school population has created new and acute difficulties. One point which cannot be emphasized too strongly is that our public schools are the responsibility of all citizens—not just those with growing children. As all of us take a more active, alert interest in our educational system we shall have better schools and better citizens to meet the challenge of tomorrow. Looking Backward and Forward This poor old government of ours has functioned upside down ever since the European war lords began to "fight it out." In World War I there were 37,508,696 casualties, of which the United States suffered 364,800. We were drawn into that war for the simple reason that European nations purchased arms and war materials in America, and our own and foreign ships were bombed by submarines when they were carrying those purchases to Europe. Our casualties in World War II were 948,-574—almost a million. We tried, and used every honorable means to keep out of both those wars. It is universally admitted that we have used our best efforts—backed by honest and patriotic hopes and desire to establish Peace. The treachery and opposition of Communist Russia still blocks all roads to world peace. The voters have turned the whole mess over to President Truman and his followers. Wish them luck! Warren's Future The recent election was the first time that Governor Warren had ever met defeat for a political office. As surprising and disappointing as it was it may work to his advantage in the long run—particularly in 1952. Had he won the vice-presidency it is not likely that he would ever have moved up to the top spot except through the death of Dewey—a remote possibility. Now the field is wide open again as far as the G.O.P. candidates are concerned and with Dewey definitely out (it is certainly not reasonable to believe that the party will nominate him a third time) Warren might get the nod in 1952. Present indications are that the Republicans will turn to the Warren or Stassen type of candidate four years from now. If President Truman sticks by his recent statement that he will not run again, and especially if the present prosperity does not continue, the possibilities of a Republican victory in '52 will be increased. So, as far as Governor Warren is concerned, he may have gained Dead End For a while on election night it appears that the Dixiecrats might achieve their goal of throwing the ultimate selection of President into the House of Representatives. But as it turned out Mr. Truman didn't reach the 38 electoral votes which Thurmond threw away from him. Now, that they have ried their rebellion to the limit without giving much if anything, the question is: Will the Dixiecrats do next? It is our guess that they'll quietly drift back to the Democratic Party without talk of further rebellion but with undiminished position to the issues—civil rights, etc.,—which they split with the President. Fail to win more than four Southern States shows how tough it is for new parties to very far. That's something Henry Wallace also found out. The Present Situation We have inflation this moment. Our national debt has risen to $252,000,000,000 we have "cheap" dollars which will purchase one-half the goods that they would few years ago; we are so entangled with international affairs that we are sending lions of dollars abroad that are needed our countrymen in the United States. Berlin blockade, the free trade treaties, the failure to make the United Nations "unite" can all be traced to the weakness of the administration and the Congress. They disagreed about everything all through 1952. The United States has to make over large part of its fundamental policies. It be a long and almost endless undertaking cause right now we are threatened with other war. We cannot afford risking our independence and our own leadership of affairs of civilized people. That means Russia cannot be allowed to destroy United Nations. In the meantime we do need to debate with Russia about our atrocities. War is hell, and peaceful United States is in opposition to blow hell out Russia. In a tight pinch we could use little scientific monopoly of our purposes. Now is the time for the people of United States to recognize the strength our government and its honesty of purity and to remake our great nation over good as it used to be. Poor Showing One of the most satisfactory results of presidential election was the abysmal shining of Henry Wallace. This was bad not only to Wallace and his cohorts but to the boys in the Kremlin. All of them sure the American people would rise up Henry and register a strong protest concerned and with Dewey definitely out (it is certainly not reasonable to believe that the party will nominate him a third time) Warren might get the nod in 1952. Present indications are that the Republicans will turn to the Warren or Stassen type of candidate four years from now. If President Truman sticks by his recent statement that he will not run again, and especially if the present prosperity does not continue, the possibilities of a Republican victory in '52 will be increased. So, as far as Governor Warren is concerned, he may have gained more than he lost on November 2. Strange things happen in politics. What Comes Next? The best kind of Government is achieved when the President and Congress work together for the national good. President Truman and the new Congress will likely pull together. Let us look backward for a moment to recall that President Theodore Roosevelt stepped out in front as a champion of what he called a "New Nationalism," a change that would give the Federal Government greater powers, and not interfere with the powers of the states. What T.R. had in mind was for the government to control the operations of big corporations at a time when little business was squealing for help. At a later date Franklin Delano Roosevelt launched the New Deal. He exercised almost complete control over the American business system. In fact, he was the national boss. When Hitler and Mussolini started using the radio to tell the world what they were going to do, our President used the same new wonder in communication to reply and warn Hitler and Mussolini that they couldn't get away with world murdering. As we look back upon those days we rediscover the fact that our own people fell in line with F.D.R. and encouraged him to keep right on telling the warriors of Europe where to get-off. Roosevelt didn't stop there. He specialized Poor Showing One of the most satisfactory results of presidential election was the abysmal showing of Henry Wallace. This was bad not only to Wallace and his cohorts but to the boys in the Kremlin. All of them sure the American people would rise up Henry and register a strong protest against our "imperialistic" government. The Progressive party candidate, you recall, was supposed to get about 10 million votes according to the first estimates. If the estimates were pared to about half a figure. Then the polls (must we mention polls?) said he would get anywhere from million to $3\frac{1}{2}$ million. He wound up little over a million. On a comparative basis, this makes him just about the weakest third party candidate in American history. And this means one of the strongest arguments why Hillary should stop talking and get lost somewhat Unfortunately, though, we don't think will. Oratory Value Another one of the long-held impressions that went by the boards in this election that campaign speeches don't win votes. Totally all the—if you'll pardon the exposition—"experts" agreed that the campaigns around the country were just so no window dressing put on to maintain political tradition. It has been pointed out repeatedly that in the past elections the final rehearsal public opinion taken months before the paigns ever got under way. Well, on basis of what happened this time you expect the oratory to really be terrific time. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO 75 Years Ago November 22, 1873 The Board of Trustees of the Semi-Tropic Fruit Company of southern California have decided to remove their orchards and improvements to Richland if steps are not taken at once by the Land company to construct the irrigation ditch of which a survey was recently made. Mr. Richard H. Gilman, superintendent of the fruit company commenced about eighteen months ago planting a tract of land about three miles north of Anaheim, with tropical fruit trees. The land has been purchased under the impression that a ditch would shortly be constructed. On account of the enormous expense, attendant upon watering and keeping alive the young trees of their orchard by means of well water the company has decided it to be economy to bear the result of two years labor and to transplant their trees to a locality, under an irrigating ditch. It is imperatively necessary therefore that the Los Angeles Land association should build the ditch, not from philanthropic considerations, but in order to save themselves from serious pecuniary loss. “Mine host” of the Planters has made arrangements with Aaron Smith of Los Angeles, to re-carpet the rooms and refit the upholstery department of this popular resort. Uncle John Fischer is fully up to the spirit of the times, and intends to spare no expense or trouble to make his house equal if not superior to any J. Davis; Lady Assistant Steward, Mrs. V. C. Anderson; Ceres, Miss Sarah Patterson; Flora, Mrs. F. Bowley; Pomona, Miss Martha Edwards; Chaplin, Geo. Danskin. The members are as follows: L. P. Webber, W. F. Poore, R. Eccles, J. R. Davis, Joseph Bigham, Thomas Edwards, J. A. McFadden, G. W. Crittenden, G. Thompkins, L. W. Jaquette, John Mack, Mrs. Stevens, Mrs. Mack, Mrs. J. Bowley, Mrs. W. G. McPherson, Miss Ella Jaquette. The rainfall — On the morning of Wednesday, November 19, occurred the first rain of the season since that time the weather has been cloudy with slight showers of rain on Thursday and Friday mornings. The rain fall as furnished by Dr. Higgins was on the 19 inst., one-half an inch, on the 20th, one-sixteenth and one sixteenth on the 21st also, making a total of five-eights of one inch. Our friend the doctor has returned to Anaheim. He left Westminster not because it was not all his fancy painted it, but on account of the extreme sensibility of his dog Jack, who is an animal of moral disposition and regular habits. He likes beefsteak during the day and sleep at night. The absence of a butcher shop and the presence of numberless disipated owls, soured his disposition and caused him — the dag, not the doctor — to be irregular in his manner of life. The doctor spoken of in the above item was the very popular and highly from Los Angeles spending day with the Rimpau boy. Santa Ana is to have final delivery. Al Smith was in from here in Fullerton last Saturday reports things flourishing away. Miss Annie Everharty hints tations out for a party at her next Saturday. 25 Years Ago November 22, 1923 Frederick A.

We would call the attention of land purchasers to the advertisement of Theodore Rimpau, offering for sale the "Refugio" rancho. It is undoubtedly the most valuable tract of land in the county, needs no irrigation and is offered for sale at a much lower rate than land in the vicinity of either Santa Ana or Richfield.

Miss Annie Everharty has invites out for a party at her home next Saturday. 25 Years Ago November 22, 1923 Frederick A. Hartman, member of the colony of hardy pioneers who founded the city of Anaheim, died at his home at 926 W. Washington street, Los Angeles, last Friday, at the age of 79, leaving two sons, Fred C. and Adolph, and a sister, Miss Amy Hartman. Mr. Hartman was the son of Jacob Hartman, one of the fifty pioneers who purchased the desert ground upon which Anaheim now stands, and colonized it in 1854. The Hartman tract in the original plat of Anaheim was situated in the southeast section of the city. Jacob Hartman lost his life in the great flood of 1862. The entire townsite was under water, and aushing torrent swept down from the east. Stepping out of his back door to look at the flood, Mr. Hartman apparently lost his balance and tumbled into the swirling water. He was swept away, and several days later his body was found embedded in the sand near the mouth of the Santa Ana river, not far from Wilmington. The sun's rays shining on his gold watch which happened to be exposed attracted the attention of a passerby and led to the discovery of the body. One of the finest mausoleums in the Anaheim cemetery was erected by Mr. Hartman many years ago and in this the remains of his parents are entombed. Some years ago he erected the or- vention of Kiwanis clubs at Fresno Friday and Saturday. They report having an interesting meeting. The lease and furniture of the Colonial apartments on North Lemon street were sold this week by J. A. Rowan to L. Edson, a former resident of Anaheim who left here about four years ago. Bill Hart, famous picture star was in Anaheim Saturday taking pictures on the lot of Golden Bros. circus. The scenes will be used in a picture Hart is putting on the screen. Emile Turcke was in town from Los Angeles this week calling on old time friends. Thanksgiving day has been set as the opening date for the new $40,000 swimming pool, bath house and gymnasium at our beautiful new city park. Many new things are being added.
