Home-Makers' Forum By JOAN S. WHITE Gazette Home Economist OPEN LETTER TO ANAHEIM HOMEMAKERS Dear Mrs. Homemaker, Behind every successful man is a woman. She is the homemaker who makes his success possible by providing the necessary background of a smoothly running home, the well cared for children and the incentive to make her man want to get ahead. We women are pretty important people. We control 70 per cent of the nation's wealth, do eighty to eighty-five per cent of the buying and have over sixty-five per cent of the country's savings accounts in our name. We spend most of our waking hours at the most important of all occupations—homemaking. Every job is glamorized but ours. How many times on the radio quiz programs do we hear "And what do you do, Mrs. Smith?" and then the almost apologetic answer, "Oh, I just keep house." That makes me howling mad! It is high time we homemakers received the recognition we deserve. That is the primary purpose of this forum. By reporting in this column the many interesting and worthwhile things that you and your neighbors are doing at home, we can help to give homemaking the professional rating it ought to have. So look about you. When a friend or neighbor displays her special talents by re-decorating her home or giving a successful party or simply making good soup, write and tell us about it. We will appreciate your thoughtfulness which it is entitled. The Gazette, in its earnest effort to meet the needs of the city which it serves, will the space we need. It is that we can help each through this forum. This is YOUR forum do you suggest? How can help YOU? I have written this letter dear homemaker. Won't you write to me? Sincerely yours, Joan S.

By reporting in this column the many interesting and worthwhile things that you and your neighbors are doing at home, we can help to give homemaking the professional rating it ought to have. So look about you. When a friend or neighbor displays her special talents by re-decorating her home or giving a successful party or simply making good soup, write and tell us about it. We will all appreciate your thoughtfulness. The second purpose of this forum is to help make your complex job of homemaking easier: There will be recipes and menus to help you with meal planning.

I will be glad to help you with any homemaking problems you may have and will answer your questions in this column. Please do not hesitate to ask. You are probably wondering where I get my information. Well, I have been interested in homemaking ever since I was a 4-H Club member when my activities sent me first to the State Fair and then as a delegate to the International Exposition in Chicago. I decided to go on to college to study home economics, and enjoyed the variety of courses offered at Syracuse University in New York State. They included foods, clothing, child care, purchasing, home furnishings and equipment, domestic architecture and the like. Upon graduation, I won a scholarship for my work with food to attend the Administrative Dietitian's Training course for a year at the University of Washington in Seattle. There it was a common occurrence for us to bake 60 pies in a morning. One of my recipes for cream pie begins: "Break ninety eggs into a bowl—" My classmates included Emily Chase who was, until last year, foods editor of Sunset Magazine and Lila Jones who is at present assistant foods editor of The American Home Magazine. My first job was as assistant manager of the Persian Dining Room, a tea room in Seattle which catered to businessmen and shoppers. Next, I became catering manager at the Uni- JUST ARRIVED!

HART The Orange county sanitation program, which has sailed stormy seas, apparently still isn't anchored in a safe harbor. Particularly Newport Harbor. Latest storm signals for the sewerage project are flying from that direction, so that the program is caught in a pincers movement, so to speak, between Newport-Costa Mesa area on one side and Brea on the other. Sanitation Districts 5 (Newport Beach) and 6 (Costa Mesa) obviously have not given up the battle that raged for months over the question whether the joint districts would set up their own engineering staff for design and construction of the proposed sewerage system or would contract both items out to engineering firms. An amendment to the pending joint agreement for construction and operation of the sewerage works, as proposed by District 5 and 6 last week, carried the significant provision for a central engineering staff, as one of several alternative procedures proposed in the joint agreement. In that, the two districts presumably were protecting their position for future contention over the issue, which never was settled in the deadlock that saw four districts aligned on each side of the dispute. It was tabled when a truce was called to permit setting up the preliminary organization, now in progress. Whether the issue will be fought out on the point of adopting or rejecting the amendment, remains to be seen. Opponents of the central engineering staff plan may permit such a provision to be inserted in the agreement, which still would permit choice of another procedure when the time comes to decide upon permanent organization. So renewal of the battle may be deferred until then. But it seems to be surely coming. Since the time of the four to four deadlock, Districts 5 and 6 have lost at least one ally. District 8 (Laguna Beach) has virtually withdrawn from the joint program, and District 7 (El Modena-Tustin-Irvine Ranch) did not join in offering the amendment; in fact, did not know it was coming. This may be regarded as significant with respect to District 7's future position in the sanitation program. Meanwhile, the city of Brea, situated within District 2, has not yet filed its threatened injunction suit, to prevent sale of the district's sewerage bonds or application of the sanitation tax to Brea city. Brea leaders are merely coasting along, watching developments of the sewerage program, with no immediate pressure on them for going to court. Brea is not threatened with sewerage tax commitments until the district prepares to sell the bonds. Meanwhile, it is known that Brea thinks the whole program is likely to fall apart, as now organized, and will finally narrow down to about the size of the present JOS set-up. So Brea is merely biding its time. The next few weeks should tell whether Brea has the right hunch. 45 RESCUED AT ZUMA BEACH Eighty-two persons were rescued from rip tides yesterday as thousands fled to Southern California beaches from holiday heat which reached 85 degrees at Los Angeles.

Picnic tables have been reserved for 12:00 noon, for the friends and members of the California Institute. The speaking will start at 1:30 p.m. George McCain, the man responsible for California's $75 old age pension, will be the principal speaker of the day. McCalin will explain his new pension initiative to be presented to the State Legislature which will ask for a floor of $75 a month, with the State and Federal Governments to assume the costs of medical, health needs of the recipients, the cost of eye glasses, dentures and other orthopedic appliances. The recent Federal social security amendments passed by the Senate will make Federal funds available for these purposes.
