ORANGE CAPITOL OF THE WORLD EST. 1870 CALIFORNIA STATE LIBRARY ANAHEIM GAZETE ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY, JUNE 9, 1950 ys Are Over for These Gra Service Speak County League Requests Tax Fund for Cities Request for $110,000 of the county's gasoline tax money for city streets connecting with traffic arteries, will be sent to the county supervisors by Orange County League of Cities. It was decided by resolutely adopted by the league's executive board in Santa Ana last year. The league obtained such an agreement from the county two months ago under similar conditions and expenditure. The amount is on an estimated $1 per city population. Such an agreement would make a nearly half division of state gas tax coming to the county and cities. Profitable selling of tax dept. property by the cities, auctions or tax sales, was held at the dinner meeting may be referred to the state for help with a solution.

Bradley Says— U.S. Building Strong Force WASHINGTON (AP)—Americans Armed Forces won't be sufficient to fight a major war even by July, 1951, Gen. Omar N. Bradley has told Congress. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff added, however, in testimony before the Senate Appropriations committee, that he feels the U. S. is on the way to attaining "the necessary forces to prevent a disastrous attack from crippling this nation." "I also believe that our forces in being and our mobilization base will be sufficient, together with the forces and potential of friendly nations, to win a war if it comes," Bradley said in testimony released by the Senate committee. The nation's No. 1 military man, testifying in support of a $13,000,000,000 military budget for the year beginning next July 1, said the aim is to build up forces which, in the event of an attack, "can strike a retaliatory blow that will be strong enough to slow down the aggressor while we mobilize." "Beyond that point," he said, /(Continued on Page 2) Soong Bolts Warren Says— Highly Pleased With Balloting SACRAMENTO (P)—Cali- Marywood Commencement exercises from the Roman Catholic school for girls St. Anselm Church, Los Angeles, conferred the degrees and de Soong Bolts China Party By The Associated Press Rather than go to Formosa, threatened with communist invasion, T. V. Soong, millionaire brother of Madame Chiang Kai-Shek has resigned from Nationalist China's ruling party. The central executive committee of the party announced this today at Taipei, Formosa, as rumors spread the red Chinese time table calls for invasion in early July. Official Nationalist dispatches said a heavy movement of communist troops from Central and South China toward embarkation points on the east coast has been reported by their mainland intelligence. Thus, as Nationalist China faces its blackest hour, the Soong family, which has so long dominated it, is widely separated—with the former minister taking refuge in the Western world, Madame Chiang standing beside her husband on Formosa, and her sister, Madame Sun Yat-Sen, widow of the founder of the republic, in the camp of the communists in Peiping. Other highlights in world news: Japan—The Japanese government cracked down further on communist leaders. Police pressed a drive in Osaka against party members and sympathizers. In Tokyo, police raided two communist party offices. They said they (Continued on Page 2) Warren Says— Highly Pleased With Balloting SACRAMENTO (P)—California's champion vote-getter, "tremendously pleased" by the results of Tuesday's primary, said today he views the coming general election "with confidence." Governor Earl Warren told newsmen that his combined Republican and Democratic majority over James Roosevelt in the primary will be "well in excess of 700,000 votes." The Republican Warren won his own party's nomination by 9 to 1 over the Democratic eldest son of FDR. Roosevelt got the Democratic nod by a much smaller margin. Warren—In an anecdotal, reminiscent mood—pointed out that the 7,750,000 votes he expects to have when all the returns are in are the most any California candidate has ever received in a contested primary election. As for the November election, the campaign battle plans have not been made yet, but "you may be sure that I will make a vigorous campaign." Warren said at his news conference. Asked to comment on the results of the race for state attorney general—which saw incumbent Fred N. Howser lose to fellow Republican Edward S. Shattuck and Democrat Edmund G. (Pat) Brown—Warren said merely: "All these things are supposed to represent the people's choice, and we'll just let it go that way." The governor several times has joined in the frequent public criticism of Howser.

Marywood School Graduates 19 Girls in Commencement Exercises This Morning Marywood School Graduates 19 Girls in Commencement Exercises This Morning Bomber Shot Down by Own Crew's Guns LONDON (UK)—A United States B-29 bomber which fell in flames into the North Sea Wednesday with a loss of at least three lives shot itself down during gunnery practice; headquarters of the 3rd Air Division said today. Bullets from the plane's 50-calibre machine guns struck the right outboard engine during a firing run on a gunnery range off the Norfolk coast, a spokesman said, setting the plane on fire. Eleven crewmen were ordered to abandon the burning plane at low altitude. Four were rescued, three were recovered dead, and a search is continuing for the other four. The Air Force spokesman said failure of normal safety devices with which the big plane was equipped permitted the gunfire from its own turret to strike the outboard engine. "It was just one of those things that happen," he said. "All normal precautions were taken." Normally automatic controls cut the fire of the B-29's machines should they be turned toward any part of the aircraft. The heavy bomber, in Britain from its Fairfield, Calif., based on a training mission, crashed flaming into the North Sea after the accident. Commencement exercises for 19 seniors of the Marywood Catholic school for Girls was held this morning in the patio of the school at 407 W. Broadway. The Very Rev. Monsignor John K.
