ANAHEIM GAZETTE 7 Anaheim Gazette, Thursday, December 22, 1949 Samish for 'Strongest Enforceable Lobby Statute That Can Be Enacted By EARL G. WATERS Western News Service Sacramento (WNS)—The king of the lobbyists, Artie Samish, arrived in Sacramento late yesterday to watch the gyrations of the legislature as it attempts to regulate lobbying. The man who talked freely and so much about lobbying in California last summer had little to say today. Making no attempt to be inconspicuous, neither was the great man, who a national magazine called "the secret boss of California," conspicuous. In recent years Samish, about whom Governor Warren bluntly stated he was "more powerful" than the governor in matters of legislation which affected his clients, has made few appearances in the state capitol. The present time is no exception. Samish's usual habit is to arrive unannounced at the Hotel Senator and go directly to his suite of rooms from which he seldom leaves except for nocturnal visits to the hotel lobby. This is where he was found late last night by this reporter. Asked what he thought about the proposed legislation Governor Warren was asked to control lobbying, Samish had a ready statement. “Earl, tell them Artie is for the strongest enforceable lobby statute that can be enacted,” he said. Beyond that one sentence statement Samish would not go. Asked about specific points which have been raised in connection with the lobbying measures pending in both houses, Artie said, “you've got your statement.” Asked for comment on Artie's statement Governor Warren merely said, “that's interesting.” From all outward appearances then, Samish continues to feel as he did last summer when he said there is one way to end lobbying abuses in California. “The people,” he said then, “must take more interest in the men they elect.” Performs Service Although he has been the target for much abuse as a result of the statements he made at that time, Samish has performed a service for the state. For it was the direct result of Samish's statements which have brought about the present move to control lobbying. The extent of lobbying in California was first brought to the public attention by this Western News Service writer last January in a series of articles which reported the number of lobbyists in Sacramento exceeded the number of legislators by more than three to one. A detailed list of lobbyists unfolding what each represented and how each operated was contained in these articles. Later stories carried by various newspapers were climaxed by the national magazine story which carried pictures of Samish holding a dummy upon his knee and quoted him as stating “this is my legislature.” To All the Season’s Greetings from AARON SCHULTZ Furniture 301 WEST CENTER ST.

The grand jury committee, headed by Robert Allen, and including Heinz Kaiser and Waldo O’Kelly, observed that the section of cracked concrete pipe replaced this year did not complete rehabilitation of the storm drain. The cracked pipe was due largely to railroad vibrations and heavy earth loads, it was stated. The grand jury also discussed Carbon canyon flood dangers, and conditions in the Atwood-Richfield-Yorba areas.

Aircraft Available As War Memorials Sacramento, (WNS)—The California Aeronautics Commission announced that a limited number of "King Cobra" fighter type F-63 aircraft are available for use as war memorials. The commission has completed arrangements with the air material command to secure the fighters in full war dress and ready for display. Organizations interested in securing the craft should write to the commission at 817 Tenth street. Hoffman Named Grand Marshal Of Rose Parade Paul G. Hoffman, hard-working director of Marshall Plan aid to the peoples of war-torn Europe, will take a day off January 2 to ride as grand marshal in Pasadena's Tournament of Roses Parade. Announcement of the Economic Cooperation Administrator's acceptance of the invitation to be his hometown's honored guest was made today by Drummond J. McCunn, tournament president. Hoffman, former industrialist took the job of administering American aid to Europe in April, 1948 will ride at the head of the Sixty-First Annual Rose Parade in a rose-decorated cart. Following the parade, he will sit in the President's box in the Rose Bowl to watch the University of California tangle with Ohio State University for national football honors. President McCunn expressed deep pleasure in announcing Hoffman's acceptance. "The Tournament of Roses," said McCunn, "invites each year an outstanding citizen who has made contributions to the general welfare above and beyond the call of duty, to lead the Rose Parade." "We consider Mr. Hoffman a particularly appropriate choice for the leadership of the 1950 parade, which will have as its theme, 'Our American Heritage.'" McCunn pointed out that Hoffman rose, in the best American tradition, from the job of porter in a Chicago automobile agency to the presidency of the Studebaker Corporation, a position he resigned in April, 1948 to become chief of the ECA. "As one of the nation's leading industrialists," MuCunn said, "Mr. Hoffman has made a major contribution to our system of private enterprise." As the father of one of Pasadena's great American families, he has contributed to one of our greatest institutions, the family, which is the strength of our democratis society." Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman are the parents of seven children, all but one of whom will be in Pasadena for the annual New Year's festivities. "Having achieved a full measure of success in private life," McCunn continued, "Mr. Hoffman relinquished his high position in business to accept a government post in the interest of world peace. "As Economic Cooperation Administrator, he is the leader of the United States' effort to strengthen democracy in Europe and promote aid." In addition to holding prominent positions in government and industry, Hoffman, who attended college for just one year, is a trustee of the University of Chicago and Kenyon College. He has received honorary degrees from 18 colleges and universities. GARDEN MARKET Owned and Operated by Anaheim's Home Town Boy!
