Oranges Ready to Move As Rail Strike Is Settled That loud cheer you heard this morning was from local orange packing houses located on the Santa Fe tracks. They had just heard that the railroad strike was over. The seven day strike which had tied up the Santa Fe, Union Pacific, Pennsylvania, New York Central, and Southern, was settled at 4:00 this morning. The Anaheim Citrus Fruit assn., is currently packing for export and was faced with the necessity of trucking packed fruit to the Anaheim Valencia Orange assn. house on the Southern Pacific lines to get it moving east. Because of the rail strike other transportation facilities were also at a premium. Next week when this area should have some domestic prorate the end of the strike will make it possible to move fruit that would otherwise have to remain on the trees and miss a good market. U.P., Santa Fe Run Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, resumption of full rail operation by Santa Fe and Union Pacific today or tomorrow was announced soon after settlement of the strike. The Santa Fe, which had cut its transcontinental service to two trains, put its regular schedule in force with departure of the Eastbound Chief at 12:30 p.m. On the San Diego-Los Angeles run departure of the San Diegan at 11:45 a.m., marked return to normal operation. Only on the San Bernardino local line will resumption of the one train daily schedule have to wait until tomorrow. Today's resumption also includes the Gold-en Gate between Bakersfield and San Francisco and all usual freight runs. In shops in Los Angles, San Bernardino, Richmond, San Francisco, Bakersfield, Barstow and Needles, calls went out to several thousand workmen laid off last week. The Union Pacific said it is resuming normal activity out of Los Angeles "right now" on both passenger and freight lines. Crack trains affected include the streamliner City of Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Limited, the Utahn and the Pony Express, all scheduled to depart at their regular times. The Pony Express was cancelled during the strike.

The companies — the Pennsylvania Railroad; the New York Central System; the Southern Railway; and the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railway, and the Union Pacific railroad. Only parts of each system were struck. Settlement terms—Management and union disagreed on whether the union withdrew or modified its demand for a second firemen on multiple unit diesel locomotives. Both said they had agreed to arbitration of present practices bearing on the demand, under the existing agreement; but disagreed on precisely what the arbitration covered. The union said it also obtained elimination of wage differentials between different types of firemen; guarantees of clauses with individual lines which are better than the overall agreement; maintenance of seniority during strikes. Length of strike—six days and part of a seventh. Effects—an estimated 200,000 persons were made idle. Unofficial estimates of costs run into millions of dollars. Settlement effects—freight embargoes have been removed and passenger service is approaching normal. Pennsylvania said its passenger service will be on a regular basis after midnight. The New York Central and Southern expects to be back to full scale operations tomorrow. Santa Fe lifted its freight embargo hours before settlement was publicly announced. Both the carriers and the striking union called the settlement terms satisfactory. TEMPERATURES Temperatures reported by the U.S. Weather Bureau for the 24 hours ended at 4:30 PST today.

The banjo strumming end-men are Jim Morris (center left) and Bill Talevich (center right). Alabama Jubilee Minstrels Promises To Be ‘Sparkling and Different’ Theater patrons looking for something sparkling and different will have a treat in store when the curtain rises on the first act of the “Alabama Jubilee Minstrels,” scheduled for 8 p.m. Friday, May 19, in the Anaheim high school auditorium. Comedians of the “burnt cork” with a zestful line of new gags open the show in true showboat style. A bevy of chocolate complexion Jubilee belles, garbed in rainbow hued raiment, will entertain with song and dance. Cakewalk True to the tradition of the original cakewalk, the dark town steppers will be out to win top honors in actual competition. Eight couples are competing and have been perfecting their steps in the privacy of their own homes in order that their high struttting cakewalk routine will be a complete surprise. The winners will be selected by audience applause. The award will be a big chocolate cake. They’ll strut their stuff to that cakewalk favorite, “Alexander’s Ragtime Band.” Popular fast stepping Bob Burns will add his talents to help make the show another big success. Young Burns has starred with the Richard-Martin shows and will be well remembered by Anaheim audiences. He gained recognition both with the Holiday Stage and on television. In blackface, Bob Burns will do two specialty numbers prepared especially for the Alabama Jubilee Minstrels. Watch for him in Mist Banjo. “Aunt Hagar’s Blues” Starring in the show is Anna Lewerenz. Her illiting rendition of that haunting melody “Aunt Hagar’s Blues” will captivate her audience. Ray Link, better known as end-man Sassafrass, does his famous “Pussycat” number. Tops on the list too is the “Wedding of Lulu Wafer.” The blushing bride beneath her demure coffee colored countenance is none other than Mrs. Midge Simonton. Her melodious voiced husband to be is Hobbie Sapolio, known about Anaheim as Bob Larson, while the officiating parson known as “Marrying Samuel Snow,” so intent upon receiving a just fee for performing the nuptials, is the Reverend of Anaheim’s Presbyterian church, Howard Congdon. It’s an old fashioned show with everybody having a good time. It would seem that only a part of the action will be on the stage as the audience is slated to play a part, too. Many of the local townsfolks are in for some good natured wisecracking. In between acts there’ll be refreshments hawked by the peanut and popcorn vendors down the aisles. Tickets are on sale at Jackson’s Drug Co., Bigler’s Pharmacy and the Orange County Drug. Lie and Stalin Talk 90 Minutes In the Kremlin (Continued from Page 1) view came after Lie—seeking to ease East-West tension—conferred with President Truman in Washington and with top officials in London, Paris and here in Moscow. The 90-minute interview was considered rather long for the Soviet premier. All Moscow newspapers reported the meeting on their front pages. Lie arrived last week. Another high U.N. official completed his own mission to Moscow. He was Gunnar Myrdal, executive secretary of the U.N. Economic commission for Europe. He leaves today for Warsaw and Western Europe after eight days of “long full talks” with top Soviet officials. Myrdal declined to say what response he had received to his pleas that East-West trade be loosened, nor whether he was optimistic over possibilities of increasing such trade. He said: “I am not any more discouraged than when I came here.” Local Realtors Will Attend State Confederate Phillips Plant County Tour Before Prime (Continued from status of district problems.

Between the speech - for a speech exchange, Republicans were voting today in an important and apparently close primary in Pennsylvania. The outcome may have a strong bearing on the 1952 political situation, when a president is to be elected. Taft will have the same radio outlets (ABC, NBC, MBC, CBS) that Mr. Truman had when he told cheering Democrats in Chicago, and the nation at large, that Democrats “will carry on the fight” for: 1. International co-operation; 2. Taft-Hartley law repeal; 3. Improved social security laws; 4. Federal aid to education; 5. Middle income housing help from the government; 6. Health insurance; 7. Natural resources development; 8. Improved farm price supports; 9. Aid to small business, and 10. Civil rights laws. That was Mr. Truman’s formal summary. Departing from his text, he gibed at the Republicans: "I wish the opposition would come out for something and be a real opposition. A great political party can not survive by being against everything." Local Realtors Will Attend State Confab Officers and several members of the Anaheim Realty board will attend a meeting of the board of directors of the California Real Estate assn., at the Hotel Coronado, May 26 and 27, according to Bert Arnold, president of the local association and a member of the state board. The meeting of the directors on Saturday will be preceded by a gathering of the presidents and secretaries of the 126 local real estate boards and 23 regional vice-presidents throughout California, Mr. Arnold said. Under discussion will be civic, legislative, public relations, and business activities of local groups. Director of the state association in this area is Miss Frances Backs. More than 400 persons are expected to attend a luncheon on Saturday at which Herbert U. Nelson, executive vice-president of the National Association of Real Estate boards, Washington, D.C., will report on "Lessons Learned from Europe in 1950." Among arrangements to be made during the meetings are plans for the 46th annual convention of the association which will be held in October at Santa Cruz. Service managers o. the Ford dealerships in Orange county will meet this evening at the Elks club for a dinner meeting. Approximately 35 men are expected to attend. Observe Church's 77th Year With Birthday Party (Continued from page 1) Little Nell, and Duane Brown as Mother Jones. Musical numbers included the Andrew Sisters (Mrs. Mendoza, Mrs. Olding, Mrs. Weaver), an accordion solo by Tom Wright and the curtain raiser pantomime number by Joe and Mary Thompson. Pretzels and pepsi-cola were served during intermission with ice cream and birthday cake topping off the refreshments at the conclusion of the program.

Phillips Plans County Tour Before Primary (Continued from Page 1) status of district projects and problems. The Congressman made 15 talks in the district during a brief visit just before Easter, returning to Washington when Congress reconvened. Tentative plans now call for the congressman to spend the 25th speaking in the beach communities, the 26th, speaking in the western part of the county, and the 27th in the northern end of the county. Water Board to Widen and Clean Prado Channel Contract has been signed by the Orange County Water district board with A. H. Famularo, to clean and widen an old 20-foot channel in Prado basin, and dig 4400 feet of new ditch, in a program to eliminate waste of costly water purchased by the district from the Metropolitan Water district. At the same time, Famularo will dig 15,000 feet of ditch on the opposite side of Santa Ana river for the Santa Ana River Development Company, for similar purpose. The SARD represents the Anaheim Union Water Co., and Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Co. With the addition of 70 second feet of flow of MWD water to the natural stream flow of Santa Ana river at this season, there has been overflow of the banks into the adjacent low areas, where it is estimated that approximately 25 per cent of the 15,000 acre feet of water bought at $15 per acre foot from MWD has been wasted. Expenditure of $5000, the price of the Famularo contract, this is expected to save more than $30,-000 worth of water this summer, and increase the underground water supply by 3750 acre feet. The ditches to be constructed will catch the overflow and lead it back to the river channel below. WARREN ON RADIO Governor Warren will speak over a statewide broadcasting KECA, Los Angeles, at hook-up emanating from Sta-7:30 tonight. The talk will be a climax to a day spent in the city visiting industrial plants and talking with party members. Unusual Barometer Indicates Business In County is Good Business conditions in Orange county are in an "excellent position" compared to some other sections of the state of California, according to an unusual (to say the least) barometer: The volume of wage complaints before the State Labor department. Leo Vander Lans, deputy labor commissioner at Long Beach, who has been holding hearings in Santa Ana every Friday for the past 19 years, reports that wage complaints have fallen off—"always a sign of improved business conditions," he says. The state case load has 'been mounting, as a whole, in the past 18 months, violations being chiefly non-payment of wages. But, in Orange county, conditions are much better than in most other areas, said Vander Lans.
