THEODORE B. KUCHEL Publisher MAX BESLER Assistant Publisher ROBERT FUNSETH Managing Editor WILLARD GREGORY City Editor NEIL STANLEY Display Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager Earl Warren: Experience vs. a Name The following appraisal of Governor Earl Warren was prepared by the Associated Press. Last Friday the Gazette published a similar article on James Roosevelt: Governor Earl Warren goes into the primary election tomorrow with a peculiar set of circumstances facing him. The native son governor, energetically fit at 59, is pitting his experience and non-partisan strategy against: 1. The possible lure of he Roosevelt name — FDR was always a California winner; and 2. Against a Democratic margin of 1,035,713 voters over the Republicans. It was the same type of appeal, together with the undeniably warm friendly Warren personality, that led to his greatest political triumph in 1946. First elected in 1942 as a Republican, the former District Attorney of Alameda County (1926-38) and State Attorney General of Young Republicans at Bakersfield recently, that the Republican party must be the "party of the people." He has departed from Republican policy in his long but unsuccessful advocacy of compulsory pre-paid health insurance. His views on public development of water and power resources — he's for it — are frankly unpopular in some circles. But Warren says: "If governent is to truly serve the people, we must continually make social progress, I will shoulder every responsibility to make such progress, but never to advance socialism, to which I am opposed." Warren headquarters, in campaign literature, lists 222 accomplishments since the governor succeeded California's first Democratic governor in 52 years, Culbert L. Olson, in 1943. Highlights: Ability to balance every one of the Warriors budgets reduces taxes. Francisco to make the preliminary arrangements for establishing wholesale wine house in the Francisco district. 50 Years Aged June 21, 1900 The Grammar school class Friday. Professor Little graduated from the eight who will next year attend schools. Miss Adele Mossen taught the past year at Scenta, and Miss Addie who taught at Bloomfield across the river from Los Angeles county have been employed to teach in mary grade. Miss French dered her resignation as a teacher in the high school. She has ed a position in the Coventry position in the Coventry school. Her place here will en by Miss Purl E.

Mrs. Horr and Kerlin will also retire. Mr land who taught last year has been employed to teach of the intermediate grade Central school. Mrs. Speng taught at Katella, desires in the Central school. They have employed Prof. Athlet teach in the high school. Mr. Chapman informs us car of naval oranges for ranch at Placentia recently the New York market for box, the highest price so obtained for oranges from nia this year. Fruit from this is fast becoming known as the best grown in the state keeping qualities are of a order. This is due to the exercised in picking and pac fruit, as well as to the sup of the trees in the orchard. Chapman is justly proud distinction his oranges have made. Legislative officers have served us well In the election of tomorrow good service should not be forgotten in the two legislative offices which are nearest the voter. Sam Collins has given this district fine service as a member of the Assembly. His worth has also been recognized by his fellow lawmakers to the extent of electing him Speaker of the Assembly. This is the second time in history that this honor has come to the 75th district. John Phillips also has served his district well. This is what we have a Congressman for and if you like what he has done for this district then he merits your vote. Warren headquarters, in campaign literature, lists 222 accomplishments since the governor succeeded California's first Democratic governor in 52 years, Culbert L. Olson, in 1943. Highlights: Ability to balance every one of the Warren budgets, reduce taxes, embark on a pay-as-you-go system and yet build up almost $500,-000,000 in wartime savings. Sponsorship of the first hospital insurance plan of any state, and the first disability insurance program of any state; and increases in unemployment insurance payments while saving employers $34,000,000 in contributions. Helping to put in the highest average old age grant in the country. (Warren actively opposed the George H. McLain pension program, calling it "this unconscionable exploitation of the aged and the blind.") Reorganization of the State Prison system, development of a modern mental hygiene program, and extermination of "the corrupt political pardon racket." Tightening up of laws against sex offenses and gambling, including the soon-effective new statute banning possession of slot machines. War on the underworld through the State Crime Commission; legislation against loansharks and against corrupt lobbying. Improvement of the State Highway system. Earl Warren says his work isn't finished yet and he'd like the chance to carry out the programs he has started. He offers the voters his experience and his record. But he says: "I claim no magic for the solution of the problems of our state. Government is no place for magicians." Ed Kraemer reports a time while camping in the Valley country some days. There was no end of fish, the trout which were caught the creek below the Bear dam, being two feet in length boys used to catch a wasp full before breakfast. Ed grub for worms and Schu and Bush did the fishing, but that he is on to the job, the next time he goes fishing will do the fishing himself hire a man to grub the bar he added, in a fearful voice: The rangers were that no fun was possible busy baling hay now. He ning a beeves head repair and tells us that Billy H wants to see how beeves haked in the ground, because contemplates a trip east side wants to show his folks how forians do the trick. 25 Years Ago June 18, 1925 Graduation exercises were at St. Catherine's school, afternoon, June 14. The ing boys having successfully pleted the grammar school received their diplomas: A covedo, Tony Yanez, R Wilson. William Gallagher. Tony Yanez won a silver cup presented for excellence by E. T. Gana liam Gallagher won a silver which was presented by Ackerman. In class A, Ern dell won the medal for courtesy, donated by Mrs Dolan and Joseph Butter medal presented by H. another medal presented by Mrs. Stephen Kist win by Adolfo Escovedo. Legislative officers have served us well In the election of tomorrow good service should not be forgotten in the two legislative offices which are nearest the voter. Sam Collins has given this district fine service as a member of the Assembly. His worth has also been recognized by his fellow lawmakers to the extent of electing him Speaker of the Assembly. This is the second time in history that this honor has come to the 75th district. John Phillips also has served his district well. This is what we have a Congressman for and if you like what he has done for this district then he merits your vote. Three propositions—yes—no—yes Space prohibits a long discussion of the three measures submitted to the voters which appear on tomorrow's ballot. But you can take it from us that the way to vote is as follows: Yes on No. 1; No on No. 2; Yes on No. 3. Numbers 1 and 3 are really helpful and No. 2 has some bad "bug" which will make it worse than nothing. The Gazette still believes that this sort of thing should be handled in the halls of the Legislature. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago June 19, 1875 Horse stealing has commenced again in our vicinity: P. C. McKinnie has almost entirely recovered from his recent attack of illness. The Southern Minstrels performed to a good house last evening. Special meeting of Anaheim Lodge No. 207, F. and A.M., this evening. A full attendance is desired. One hundred new boxes will be put up in the postoffice, the locks having been received after a vexatious delay. Henry Richter will leave today for a visit to New York. Ben Dreyfus has gone to San Significant Statements by Interesting Californians DR. PETER H. ODEGAN political science prof.—we like it or not, all of us politics and in it up to our from the day we are born die." A. C. HARDISON, Santa Pres. Calif.

CHIKAO HONDA, J editor, In S.F.—"If General Arthur and the occupation should move out today, it likely the Communists could over Japan." ROY A. BROWN, San newspaper publisher — single person added to census total is 'worth' $5 year when state-collected are allocated to cities." Francisco to make the preliminary arrangements for establishing a wholesale wine house in that city. 50 Years Ago June 21, 1900 The Grammar school closed on Friday. Professor Little reports 12 graduated from the eighth grade who will next year attend the high schools. Miss Adele Mosseman who taught the past year at La Crecenta, and Miss Addie Wallop, who taught at Bloomfield, just across the river from Los Alamitos on Los Angeles county have each been employed to teach in the primary grade. Miss French has tendered her resignation as a teacher in the high school. She has accepted a position in the Covina high position in the Covina high school. Her place here will be taken by Miss Purl E. Bottome. Miss Richards will retain her position as teacher of sciences in the high school. Miss Fay, who taught at West Anaheim, has also resigned, and will go to Oakland where she will accept a position as bookkeeper in a large mercantile establishment. Mrs. Horr and Miss Kerlin will also retire. Miss Bowland who taught last year at Olive, has been employed to teach one of the intermediate grades in the Central school. Mrs. Spencer, who taught at Katella, desires to teach in the Central school. The trustees have employed Prof. Athearn to teach in the high school. Mr. Chapman informs us that a year of naval oranges from his ranch at Placentia recently sold in the New York market for $5.75 a box, the highest price so far obtained for oranges from California this year. Fruit from this ranch is fast becoming known as among the best grown in the state. Its keeping qualities are of a superior order. This is due to the care exercised in picking and packing the fruit, as well as to the superiority of the trees in the orchard. Mr. Chapman is justly proud of the distinction his oranges have st. SACRAMENTO (WNS)—When, in 1910, Frank C. Jordan was reported to have lost his party nomination for the office of Secretary of State it was not until 30 days later that he learned otherwise. For that is the period of time it required then and still requires before the official tabulations of a statewide election can be completed. Few persons realize one of the major services performed by the press is the reporting of elections. And were it not for this signal service the public would await the result of elections for a period of from 20 to 30 days, as happened in the Jordan case 40 years ago. No other event calls so heavily upon all the resources of the newspapers and press services as does an election. On that day not only the editorial staff, but all other departments of the newspaper and all employees of a press service are given stand-by notice. Advertising men join with circulation people in performing reportorial service so the public may know the outcome of the election. During the day the public is kept posted on the election turnout so that all may know whether or not to expect a light or heavy vote. Spot checks are made to gather an indication of the trend of the voters to determine how each issue is going and what candidates are being favored. Immediately upon the close of the polls newsmen stand-by various precincts throughout the state to report upon the first results. After enough ballots have been counted to determine the trend at these precincts the reporters dash to telephones to flash think of giving amnesty to racketeers, gamblers and war profiteers who evaded taxes when we needed the money most." Dulles vs. Johnson It looks like the Republican watchdog of U.S. foreign policy, John Foster Dulles, was going to be something of a disappointment to his fellow Republicans. Simultaneously it looks as if the big Democratic money-raiser, Secretary of Defense Louey Johnson, was going to be quite a help to the Republicans. In fact, Johnson, the Democrat, is probably going to please the Republicans, more than Dulles, the dyed-in-the-wool Republican. It was over aid to Formosa and Nationalist China that Republican Senators raised such a howl last winter — a howl which led to the appointment of Wall Street Attorney John Foster Dulles as State Department adviser. Now GOP Senators find that GOP Dulles is privately critical of GOP General Douglas McArthur and his Japanese policies, one of which was sending arms to Formosa. Meanwhile, Secretary Johnson lectures Congressmen in support of MacArthur. “There is no Japanese problem General MacArthur can't solve,” he says. “The Japs don't want him to leave. Nor do they want a change to civilian rule. There is no resentment against our occupation.” However, MacArthur's tight censorship has prevented the American public from getting a true picture of what is happening in Japan. Nor does the Pentagon building appear to be fully informed. For, according to information which State Department adviser Dulles has given to Senators, Japanese communism is definitely growing, and even Jap businessmen, wanting a share of the huge Chinese market now dominated by the communists, talk about doing business with communism. Dulles in searching talks with Ed Kraemer reports a way-up time while camping in the Bear Valley country some days ago. There was no end of fish, some of the trout which were caught in the creek below the Bear Valley dam, being two feet in length. The boys used to catch a wash boiler full before breakfast. Ed would rub for worms and Schumacher and Bush did the fishing, but now that he is on the job, he says the next time he goes fishing, he will do the fishing himself and fire a man to grub the bait. But, he added, in a fearful tone of voice: The rangers were so thick that no fun was possible. Ed is busy baling hay now. He is planning a beeves head repast soon, and tells us that Billy Berdrow wants to see how beeves heads areaked in the ground, because he contemplates a trip east soon and wants to show his folks how Californians do the trick. 25 Years Ago June 18, 1925 Graduation exercises were held at St. Catherine’s school, Sunday afternoon, June 14. The following boys having successfully completed the grammar school course, received their diplomas: Adolf Essovedo, Tony Yanez, Raymond Wilson, William Gallagher. Tony Yanez won a beautiful silver cup presented for general excellence by E. T. Ganahl; William Gallagher won a silver medal which was presented by Mrs. J. Jackerman. In class A, Ernest Landell won the medal for military courtesy, donated by Mrs. Louise Dolan and Joseph Butter won the medal presented by H. I. Horn, another medal presented by Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Kistler was won by Adolfo Escovedo Miles. Spot checks are made to gather an indication of the trend of the voters to determine how each issue is going and what candidates are being favored. Immediately upon the close of the polls newsmen stand-by in various precincts throughout the state to report upon the first results. After enough ballots have been counted to determine the trend at these precincts the reporters dash to telephones to flash the news to a central headquarters where their reports are tabulated with similar returns coming from throughout the state. Thus the public is given a report before the canvass is even completed in any one precinct. All through the night this procedure is continued with the returns becoming more certain hour by hour. And while the outcome of one particular race for office may often be determined by midnight, it is daybreak before a final determination can be made on all issues and candidates. But the newspaper readers are able to pick up their morning papers and learn the results of their voting the day before. And by afternoon the papers are carrying the complete stories on all phases of the election. This is long before the county clerkks are able to tabulate the results and 30 days before the Secretary of State is able to make an official announcement. WASHINGTON — (F) — Congressmen are beginning to change their minds about voting income-tax forgiveness to tax defrauders who come in to the treasury and fess up. Such a tax-forgiveness proposal was voted by the House Ways and Means committee the other day at the urging of Congressman Walter Lynch, New York City Democrat. However, some consider it significant that Congressman Lynch has the backing of Joe Nunan, ex-Commissioner of Internal Revenue now handling a lucrative income-tax-law business; and that Nunan in turn has been representing Frankie Costello. Regardless of who was behind the tax-forgiveness bill, however, it is now recognized that this can public from getting a true picture of what is happening in Japan. Nor does the Pentagon building appear to be fully informed. For, according to information which State Department adviser Dulles has given to Senators, Japanese communism is definitely growing, and even Jap businessmen, wanting a share of the huge Chinese market now dominated by the communists, talk about doing business with communism. Dulles, in searching talks with Senators, has said he feels the United States must win over Japan as a partner in the Cold War. The dilemma, Dulles confided to Senators, is that if American troops move out, then armed communists will move in. Yet if the present military occupation remains, communists have a battle cry for sabotaging us. One solution now under study is to give the Japanese more authority, remove military control, and reconstitute MacArthur’s troops as a “Pacific Defense Force” eventually including the Japanese. Menwhile Secretary Johnson is leaving for Japan, privately agreeing with MacArthur that U.S. arms should go to Formosa. In Tokyo, he will huddle with MacArthur on how to sell their program to Congress. Acheson’s $1 Words Long-range aftermath to Secretary Acheson’s historic report to Congress was that he used too many one-dollar words. Ten-cent words would have gone down better with the Congressmen. Real fact is that, military-wise, Acheson achieved a greater success in London than most people realized. Here is what he achieved, spelled out in 10-cent words. During World War I, General Pershing flatly refused to integrate American troops with French or British. He spent several months organizing independent U.S. units so they could fight separately. Likewise Field Marshal Haig was flatly opposed to an over-all European commander, and it took pressure from Lloyd George and Woodrow Wilson to make Marshal Foch the Supreme Allied commander. After he was appalled war went better. In World War II, General Hower was Supreme Allied mander. But even so not much integration of different nationalities. Theican Army usually fought unit and so did the Brigade last month in London it was agreed that North Pact forces would be integrated. In other words which would like to go Navy and Air Force, Jr chiefly concentrate on a land army. The USA centrate on long-ranged and naval warfare; the fighter planes, etc. To persuade sovereigns to forego their own militaries and cooperate in defense is probably important step in military operation ever taken. Note — One point new Acheson is the European street, now drifting toward neutrality. Regardless of his military leader decide, he is inclined to son to be mixed up in between the U.S.A. and S.R.Danger; therefore we send guns to Europe historic agreements with yet the man-in-the-street fire the guns. Tony Yanez won a beautiful silver cup presented for general excellence by E. T. Ganahl; William Gallagher won a silver medal which was presented by Mrs. J. Ackerman. In class A, Ernest Lantell won the medal for military courtesy, donated by Mrs. Louise Dolan and Joseph Butter won the medal presented by H. I. Horn, another medal presented by Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Kistler was won by Adolfo Escovedo. Miles Hettie and Raymond Wilson won medals presented by R. B. Young and Mrs. F. G. Snyder. St. Catherine's boys are a credit to the school and under the supervision of Capt. D. M. Healy are marvels of military skill. Significant Statements by Interesting Californians Dr. Peter H. Odegard, U.C., political science prof.—"Whether we like it or not, all of us are in politics and in it up to our necks from the day we are born until we die." A. C. Hardison, Santa Paula, Pres. Calif. Taxpayers' Assn.—"It is more important for the voters to know where a candidate stands on spending the people's money than how many babies he can kiss or how many organizations he belongs to." Chikao HONDA, Japanese editor, In S.F.—"If General MacArthur and the occupation troops should move out today, it's very likely the Communists could take over Japan." Roey A. Brown, San Rafael newspaper publisher — "Every single person added to a city'sensus total is 'worth' $5.40 per year when state-collected taxes are allocated to cities." Social and Club Activities (Continued from page 2) Tots and Teens Have Meeting Members of the Tots and Teens club met in the home of Mrs. Carlton Barthelmes, 423 S. Indiana st., for a steak bake dinner. Mrs. Carl Lemcke was co-hostess. The general meeting followed the steak bake, and was presided over by the president, Mrs. Barthelmes. Program chairman for the evening were Mrs. Charles Waldo and Mrs. Wilbert Heiden. Mrs. Waldo presented Jimmy Barthelmes in two clarinet solos, "Country Garden" and "Star Spangled Banner," and Miss Nancy Barthlemes, playing the accordion, selected the following numbers, "Dearie," "Parade of the Wooden Soldiers," "Avalon," "Irish Lullaby," and "12th Street Rag." Mrs. Heiden, who was in charge of the second half of the program, selected a "True or False" quiz, which the members enjoyed very much. There will be no meetings during the summer months. The next regular meeting will be October 5 in the home of Mrs. L. A. Benner, 219 S. Lemon st., with Mrs. Warren Doller as co-hostess. Wanda Fick Feted At Nuptial Shower Miss Wanda Fick, bride-elect, was honored at a miscellaneous shower, last Thursday evening, at the home of Mrs. Virginia Potts, 409 W. Vermont st. Co-hostess for the pretty affair, was Mrs. Beverly Howard. Cootie and guessing games were played, with prizes going to Miss Rogene Sherman, Miss Betty Jo Hall and Mrs. Lydia Haines. Guests, other than those men... At Nuptial Shower Miss Wanda Fick, bride-elect, was honored at a miscellaneous shower, last Thursday evening, at the home of Mrs. Virginia Potts, 409 W. Vermont st. Co-hostess for the pretty affair, was Mrs. Beverly Howard. Cootie and guessing games were played, with prizes going to Miss Rogene Sherman, Miss Betty Jo Hall and Mrs. Lydia Haines. Guests, other than those mentioned above, were: Mrs. Guy Meats, and Mrs. Gwen Vance, of Olive; Mrs. Beck, Mrs. Marie Clary, Mrs. A. E., Howard, Mrs. Lydia Fairchild, Mrs. Marie Hall, Mrs. C. W. Fick, mother of Wanda, Mrs. Curt Horn and Miss Joan der. After he was appointed, the war went better. In World War II, General Eisenhower was Supreme Allied commander. But even so there was not much integration of troops of different nationalities. The American Army usually fought as a unit and so did the British. Last month in London, however, it was agreed that North Atlantic Pact forces would be completely integrated. In other words, France, which would like to go in for a Navy and Air Force, instead will chiefly concentrate on developing a land army. The USA will concentrate on long-range bombing and naval warfare; the British on fighter planes, etc. To persuade sovereign nations to forego their own military commands and cooperate in this kind of defense is probably the most important step in military cooperation ever taken. Note — One point neglected by Acheson is the European man-in-the-street, now drifting steadily toward neutrality. Regardless of what his military leaders may decide, he is inclined to see no reason to be mixed up in a war between the U. S. A. and the U. S. S. R. Danger, therefore, is that we send guns to Europe, make historic agreements with generals, yet the man-in-the-street may not fire the guns.
