The storm was a remnant, blown over from Arizona, where heavy rains have fallen during past week. Mr. Dickel reports 40 of an inch, Mr. Nebelung measured .48 and Mr. Darling 43—Total for the season 6.11 inches, last year to date 4.51. The rain will do a vast amount of good and with other showers yet to fall we should have a pretty fair year after all. Seventeen boys assembled at the city hall on Saturday evening for the purpose of joining the newly organized boys band of which Prof. Walter Crowther of Placentia is to be the leader. Prof. Crowther was present and said that in six months he would have the boys sufficiently trained to give an open air concert in Placentia Park. The following boys joined the band: Charles Schindler, Owens Lymburner, Fred Middleham, Fayette Lewis, Timothy Carroll, George Wommer, Earl Steadman, Charles Fischer, Walter Mickle, Charley Darling, Roy Norman, Edward Golter, Theodore Dickel, Henry Schindler, Adolph Backs, Santos Carrizosa, and William Duckworth. Prof. Crowther has been in Los Angeles this week, selecting instruments for the boys. They will meet again on Saturday afternoon next at 2 o'clock, at the city hall for their initial practice. Joseph Helmsen made a trip to Santa Ana on Friday last. He is the administrator of the Bittner estate and was in the Superior court for a partial distribution of the property to the heirs. Joseph has sold his 40 acre tract of land on Placentia avenue to A. T. Pendleton and A. Pierotti for $7500. Albert Heffner, Rud Bentz and Nick Bittner went down to the Landing on Tuesday. Heffner and Bentz have rented the warehouse at the beach and will conduct the boating privilege during the summer. They expect to be joined in a few days by Ed Zeigler, and will fish for the local and Los Angeles markets. Charley Boege has been elected a delegate from the local Odd Fellows lodge to represent them at the forthcoming session of the Grand Lodge which meets in San Francisco on May 10. Horace C. Head, a young attorney of Fullerton and Miss Anna Hansen, daughter of Peter Hansen of Placentia were married at the home of the bride in Placentia on Sunday. John Kellenberger has purchased... All the meat market formerly contacted by Veit Bentz and will conduct the same, keeping on hand the best the market affords. George Boyd informs us that he will probably finish this week the packing of this season's orange crop. He will ship out some 65 orloads. During the past dried fruit season, he shipped out 75 orloads of dried fruit. The fences in front of the properties of William Konig, Mrs. T. S.

Judge Shanley took a couple of days off this week and visited friends in Los Angeles. 25 Years Ago April 2, 1925 Two unheralded and unexpected instorms visited this section during the past few days, adding insiderably to the season's fall. All Out Diplomacy We've come along way in the understanding of the international facts of life since those war years when we felt naively confident that agreement and cooperation with Russia was possible. Secretary of State Dean Acheson's campaign of "total diplomacy" is positive proof that any lingering misconception as to the aims and purposes of the men in the Kremlin are definitely gone. We are locked in a grim bulletless war with an adversary as thoroughly bent on destroying our institutions and our way of life as any who ever took up arms against us. To what extent Secretary Acheson will succeed in awakening the American people to the full realization of what confronts them remains to be seen. But he is obviously aware that we cannot cope with the Soviet all out effort at mear and misrepresentation through half-hearted measures. "We are struggling against an adversary," says Acheson, "that is deadly serious. We are in a situation where we are playing for keeps. Moreover, we are in a situation where we could lose without ever firing a shot." It is not likely that as long as the present rulers in Moscow remain at the helm that we shall reach a state of friendship with the Soviet Union. They don't want that. But, if we can, through the combined force of the moral, economic and psychological influences at our command, force a cessation of the cold war hostilities we might realize within' the foreseeable future a cold peace. Short of a revolution in Russia that's the best we can hope for just now. Europe Must Help to Pay Its Own Way During the past two years the United States government has ap- 25 Years Ago April 2, 1925 Two unheralded and unexpected instorms visited this section during the past few days, adding considerably to the season's fall. The first came Sunday morning. Here was a steady downfall for early an hour, the precipitation being .69 of an inch. Tuesday morning another cloud drifted over and dropped almost half an inch on Anaheim. According to the gauge at the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Growers Association locking house, this makes a precipitation for the season of 5.72 inches. Last season the total rate was 7.47. Weather prognosticators tell us that April is going to be a wet month and that last season's total is going to be far surpassed. Easter Sunday morning services at the beach front have been planned by the music section of the well club of Newport Beach. On the open beach section facing the Newport Beach grammar school, a services will start at 5:30 a.m. Easter Sunday morning, April 1. All civic and religious organizations will be represented. City attorney H. V. Weisel was San Bernardino several days after week conducting a case for a client in Superior Court. He was in extremely good humor when he turned home, because he won the case. Henry Schmidt, who recently bought the Buena Park News, was town the first of the week looking after business. R. B. Young, president of the swans club, has received a letter from international headquarters saying that the local club send its numerous double quartet to the convention when it convenes at St. Paul in June. Evidently these burglars made a hit with the Killians when they journeyed to Denver and entertained the delegates at the big convention last summer. Miss Winifred Melrose entered the "500" club at her home Tuesday afternoon, where, in spite of the rain, all the members Europe Must Help to Pay Its Own Way During the past two years the United States government has approved appropriations of billions of dollars for the so-called “Marshall Plan.” Ta review retrospectively, there is a feeling that the appropriations have accomplished a lot of good—but not enough to warrant another 3 billion dollar aid grant for the third time. At the present time the indications are that somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,000,000,000 or a little more, be appropriated for European Recovery Aid; but it will be in the form of a recoverable and repayable loan. Economic co-operation administrator Paul G. Hoffman speaks the hard fact that “for fifty years Europe will not have dollars enough to buy the American commodities it needs and, in addition, pay interest and amortization on United States loans.” Closely linked with efforts to cut down the cash outlay of the ERP are the anticipated efforts to write new features into the programs which would be objectionable to Mr. Hoffman. Economic conditions in the United States today, with surpluses and falling farm prices, give encouragement to those who advocate heavy reductions, and “easy money” for the old world. Why? Because they must begin to “pay their own way.” Butter and Margarine Are Good We lift our heads to the editors of Advertising Age because of its comment to the effect that “the lobbying job of the dairy industry and the margarine group seems to be about over and it is the hope that the interest shown in the subject by the public has been in reality an educational campaign.” Nevertheless, that goes a little too far because it has been a campaign that in the end has smothered the sixty-three year old “prejudice against margarine.” Millions of housewives from time to time tried out margarine for themselves and found that it was nicer and psychological influences at our command, force a cessation of the cold war hostilities we might realize within' the foreseeable future a cold peace. Short of a revolution in Russia that's the best we can hope for just now.

Evidently these arblers made a hit with the Kinlans when they journeyed to ver and entertained the deleses at the big convention last summer. Miss Winifred Melrose enterned the "500" club at her home Tuesday afternoon, where, in date of the rain, all the members are present and a delightful afternoon was spent. Mrs. Claye in the first prize, and Mrs. angbluth the second. Delicious refreshments were served after the game. The heaviest vote ever cast at a cool election here was polled day in both grammar and high school districts. For the vacancy the grammar board, F. N. Gibbs released his opponent H. L. Brisco, 225 votes. In the nine precincts the high school district Harper and Sparkes were elected, a total vote being for Harpster 88, for Sparkes 1578, for Carner and for Dutton 203. It is difficult to criticise our government. But, politics, never be as bad as today.. We don't need more Democrats or more publicans. What we do need is able and intelligent citizens to save the government at Washington—men Washington, Jefferson, Add., Lincoln, Wilson, Taft, Theoe Roosevelt and Herbert over. The longest home run in baseball was hit by Babe Ruth in 1919. Distance was 587 feet. lobbying job of the dairy industry and the margarine group seems to be about over and it is the hope that the interest shown in the subject by the public has been in reality an educational campaign." Nevertheless, that goes a little too far because it has been a campaign that in the end has smoth-ered the sixty-three year old "prejudice against margarine." Millions of housewives from time to time tried out margarine for them-selves, and found that it was "licking" good. And margarine finally established a reputation as a tip-top competitor with butter. So in this good year of 1950 the question of color seems to have been decided once and for all by the American public as a false charge that kept the discussion going in Congress. Federal taxes on colored margarine will end on July 1 and the old barrier blocking the sale of margarine will be skidoo. Now the issues seem to be in the hands of the public—which is best and which is cheapest. High tariffs and low tariffs used to be the great issues between the old political parties. But there isn't much discussion any more about tariff rates. Uncle Sam has a lot of new schemes that raise new issues. The administration advocates government help for many nations to replace tariff schedules. Issue Notary Public Commission to Minnie Stover SACRAMENTO, (WNS)—Secretary of State Frank M.
