Retiring C. of C. President Praises City Council’s Adopting Off-Street Parking The practicability of long range planning is now completely vindicated, said retiring Chamber of Commerce President Ken Hellyer upon commenting on the annual report of the Parking and Traffic committee. Referring to recent mandatory order of the State Highway Department for abolishing angle parking on Center street, with a loss of 40% of auto stalls Hellyer and Anaheim’s citizens are deeply indebted to the city council for its fine leadership in the adoption of the nationally recognized “Anaheim Plan” of off-street parking. The Parking and Traffic committee, with Gene Mahaffey, chairman, stated that Anaheim was now well on the way of solving for all future time this problem which is currently one of the most challenging and vexatious confronting every city in the county. During the year seven more parcels of land were acquired to bring the total to 12 parcels arranged to conveniently serve the entire central business area with six good sized auto parks having a total parking capacity of over 300 cars. The report points out that this improvement program will place in public use vacant properties lying behind business and public buildings and rid the city of many ugly ramshackled buildings and blighted areas. The progress report to date lists the six acres as Auto Park No. 1, 100 West Chartres street, in use for the past two years; No. 2, 100 North Lemon, now under construction; No. 3, 100 block South Claudina, west side, now in use. It also included No. 4, 200 block West Chestnut and Oak streets; Council Clears Up $4,000 Recreation Fund Entanglement Action on the variance petition of the Greater All-American markets to operate a wholesale and retail fruit and vegetable business at Manchester and West Lincoln was deferred pending inspection of the property by the council. Legal Ads Also deferred was the awarding of contracts for the legal advertising of the city. Low bidder was the Anaheim Gazette with a bid of 42½c per inch for the first insertion and 37½c per inch for subsequent insertions. This bid applied to all advertising not required by law to appear in a daily newspaper. The Anaheim Bulletin submitted a bid of 50c per inch for the first insertion and 38c per inch for subsequent insertions of advertising that is required by law to appear in a daily and also submitted the same bid for advertising that is not required by law to be published in a daily. Ask Fire Chief A request of the Shell Oil company to install two 3,000 gallon and one 4,000 gallon underground gasoline storage tanks at their will place in public use vacant properties lying behind business and public buildings and rid the city of many ugly ramshackled buildings and blighted areas. The progress report to date lists the six acres as Auto Park No. 1, 100 West Chartres street, in use for the past two years; No. 2, 100 North Lemon, now under construction; No. 3, 100 block South Claudina, west side, now in use. It also included No. 4, 200 block West Chestnut and Oak streets; No. 5, 100 block West Chestnut and No. 6, 100 block South Claudina, east side, all of which are scheduled for paving and lighting by the city engineer's office. The committee reaffirmed the original plan of finance and praised the city council in relieving the property taxpayer of financial responsibilities and by earmarking all parking meter revenues for establishment of convenient and safe facilities for those who have business to transact in downtown Anaheim. It condemned the nationwide practice of appropriating these autoist parking service fees to other municipal services. It thanked the merchants and property owners, for cooperation by contributing their share of $10.00 per running foot of property to the city parking fund. The committee recommended the Anaheim Plan be followed as is and predicted the Anaheim business district would eventually become a vast terminal for parked cars and that the economic benefits would far exceed the fondest dreams of the sponsors of this great civic improvement. Senate Moves to Combat Cancer Sacramento, (WNS)—The Senate has passed two bills by senator Hugh M. Burns, relating to cancer and a chronic disease program.

SAM KRAEMER ENTERTAINS Mrs. Sam Kraemer, 225 West Chartres street, was hostess to a charming party given last evening Kill Jim Crow In State Militia Sacramento, (WNS)—The legislature finished consideration on a bill ending segregation in the state militia. It now goes to the governor's desk for signature. The measure, drafted by Oakland assemblyman Byron Rumford, states "members of the militia of the state shall not be segregated on the basis of race color, nor discriminated against on such basis in enlistments, promotions, or commissions." It also states it is the policy of legislature that there shall be equal opportunities for all militiamen regardless of color. The bill has a varied history, easily clearing the assembly and then becoming stalled temporarily in the senate committee on military and veterans affairs. The committee once failed to vote it out but on a second hearing, placed it before the senate where minor amendments were offered. The bill then passed, returned to the assembly for concurrence in the amendments and then to the governor for signature.
