Dedication Ceremonies (Continued from Page 1) plied by the California Centennial Commission, to be dedicated by Mitchell, has been hung on the front of the Mother Colony house and marks the house as one significant in California history. Text of this plaque reads: MOTHER COLONY HOUSE First house built in Anaheim, 1857, by George Hanson, founder "The Mother Colony," group selecting name given settlement. This German group left San Francisco to form grape growing colony in Southern California. Vinoyards destroyed 1885, by grape disease. Colony started producing valencia oranges. Here once resided Madame Helena Modjeska, and Henry Slenkiewicz, author of "Quo Vadis." Marker placed by California Centennial Commission in cooperation with Grace Parlor No. 242, N. D. G. W. Mother Colony Parlor No. 281, N. S. G. W. Dedicated July 16, 1950. SECOND PLAQUE The second plaque, provided by Mr. and Mrs. Dwyer is located on a stone bench centrally located between the Mother Colony house and the Peter Stoffel house. The plaque reads: MARIE HORSTMAN DWYER PIONEER MEMORIAL Consisting of Mother Colony Home Nation at Glance Reds and U.S. Forging Ahead With H-Bomb By The Associated Press WASHINGTON—Chairman McMahon (D-Conn) of the Senate-House Atomic Energy committee said yesterday both the United States and Russia are moving "closer to the hydrogen bomb," while turning out "stacks of atomic weapons." The Connecticut Senator didn't amplify either statement. He made it in connection with the publication of a report by the committee's staff dealing with a number of problems posed by efforts to develop the H-bomb. TUSCON—Little hope was held today for survival of three men missing in yesterday's B-50 crash in Southern Arizona's rugged Galluro mountains. Six airmen parachuted to safety and the body of one was found in the wreckage of the four-engined plane, a modernized version of the B-29 superfortress. Canyons and gullies were being searched. The plane had left the base on a routine training flight shortly before smashing into the mountain. LEBANON, O.—Only a gaping hole in a field and shattered pieces of metal today show where an Air Force B-50 bomber crashed, carrying representatives 160,000,000 church adherents in 44 countries, the policy-making central committee.

SECOND PLAQUE The second plaque, provided by Mr. and Mrs. Dwyer is located on a stone bench centrally located between the Mother Colony house and the Peter Stoffel house. The plaque reads: MARIE HORSTMAN DWYER PIONEER MEMORIAL Consisting of Mother Colony Home, First In Anaheim, Built by George Hanson in 1857 Frederick Horstman Home Built in 1860, Remodelled in 1928 Peter Stoffel Home Built by John Woelke in 1894 Vineyard Distillery, Built in 1870 Vineyard Barn, Built in 1880. Dedicated by Grace Parlor, N. D. G. W., No. 242 Mother Colony Parlor, N. S. G. W., No. 281 July 16, 1950 Begun about a year and a half ago, the pioneer memorial project was created by Mr. and Mrs. Dwyer around the Mother Colony, originally supervised and restored by the local DAR. Under present plans the Stoffel house and vineyard barns will both be used as museums, in addition to the Mother Colony house. Structures house portraits of pioneers, pictures of early landmarks, old furniture, musical instruments, household furnishings, machinery, maps, weapons, tools, and clothing and other objects closely related to the city's founding and development. Assisting in compiling historical pamphlets to be dedicated at the Sunday ceremonies were members of Daughters of the American Revolution, Mother Colony chapter, under whose efforts the Mother Colony house was originally restored. Others who have taken part in planning and presentation of dedication ceremonies include: Mac Lemke, Placenta; Tillie Enfield, Placentia; Leonard Schwacofer and Leota Carden, Anaheim. Six airmen parachuted to safety and the body of one was found in the wreckage of the four-engined plane, a modernized version of the B-29 superfortress. Canyons and gullies were being searched. The plane had left the base on a routine training flight shortly before smashing into the mountain. LEBANON, O.-Only a gaping hole in a field and shattered pieces of metal today show where an Air Force B-50 bomber crashed, carrying 16 men to their death. It was from Biggs Field, El Paso, Tex. Biggs officials said the plane was on a routine practice mission and was carrying practice bombs. The plane plunged into the ground on a farm near Lebanon, O., and exploded. The impact and the blast tore a hole in the ground that was about 18 feet deep and at least 75 feet wide. The big plane was blown to pieces. There was little left that couldn't have been carried away by an average-sized man. Bodies and parts of bodies of the victims were scattered over a wide area. WASHINGTON — An economy plan calling for a flat 10 percent cut in all non-essential government spending was polished up for presentation in the Senate today. Sentator Bridges (R-NH) said the proposal, sponsored by members of both parties, would chop some $600,000,000 off the $34,688,-000,000 one-package appropriation bill now being debated by the lawmakers. The big bill would finance the activities of most government agencies for the 12-month period which started July 1. The economy amendment would order the heads of most of these agencies to spend no more than 90 per cent of the funds allotted by the bill. Among the items exempted from the cut would be defense funds, atomic spending and certain fixed expenditures, such as the interest on the national debt. TORONTO — Leaders of the world's largest body of Protestant and Orthodox church members last night approved United Nations military action in Korea but condemned any use of atomic or bacteriological weapons. Representing 160,000,000 church adherents in 44 countries, the policy-making central committee of the World Council of Churches adopted a resolution urging also that a "just settlement" in Korea be sought through negotiation and conciliation. NEW YORK—The Stock Market struck ahead for gains running to around $3 a share today. The advance was the first this week. Heavy losses have been taken since Monday. Steels and motors were the most active groups but plus signs were liberally distributed elsewhere. Trading slowed somewhat on the comeback although an excellent day's business was done. Turnover hit a rate of around 2-,000,000 shares for the full session. The market yesterday dropped to a new 1950 low. Toward the close a recovery move got under way which carried over today.

Carrillo guilty of disturbing the peace. The verdict cost each of the two 20-year-old men 75 days in the County Jail. When they finish their stretches, they will both be deported to Mexico for illegal entry into the United States, Anaheim police said today. It will be the third deportation for Carrillo, police records indicate, and the second for Jacquez. Carrillo's Anaheim address listed as 1018 Kemp street, Santiago's as 1018½. The two men were arrested on June 25 following a verbal scrape at the Grand Theater, 304 E. Center street. Charge was that they entered the theater without paying twice during the afternoon and threatened usher Pedro Verdin who attempted to eject them. Carl Robertson Joins Agency of Robert L.

County's Taxable Retail Sales Set At $41,570,000 Orange county's taxable retail sales or the first quarter of 1950 were set at $41,570,000 today by William G. Bonelli, Fourth District member of the Board of Gladiolus Show Closes Tomorrow The big gladiolus show at Tommy Watts' Anaheim Feed and Seed store enters its second and final day tomorrow. Blooms from the finest gladiolus obtainable are on display in the show. The flowers are provided by a large Los Angeles wholesale firm. Visitors may come in just to look, or they may select their favorite varieties and purchase bulbs for them, which are on sale in the store. Mr. and Mrs. Watts, after a successful first day of the show, expect another large crowd tomorrow. Their store will be open from 9 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. Elks Dining Hall To Reopen Dining room of the Elks Club will be reopened for business again Monday morning, Warren Ashleigh, Elks club secretary-manager announced today. Popular meeting place for many of the cities service clubs and organizations, the club dining hall, along with the kitchen and adjoining facilities, have been thoroughly overhauled. The dance floor has been refinished, all floors painted, woodwork painted, machinery readjusted, kitchen facilities improved, and the entire building cleaned. Hall, who handles all types of general insurance, was formerly associated with A. P. M. Brown for several years. County's Taxable Retail Sales Set At $41,570,000 Orange county's taxable retail sales or the first quarter of 1950 were set at $41,570,000 today by William G. Bonelli, Fourth District member of the Board of Equalization. Topping first-quarter 1949 sales volume by 7.53 per cent, the amount accounted for 1.63 per cent of all California taxable retail sales. Reversing last year's trend, taxable retail sales throughout California exceeded 2½ billion dollars and topped first-quarter 1949 sales volume by almost 50 million dollars, or 1.9 percent. The first retail sales upswing in 15 months brought sales volume for the quarter to within 67½ million dollars of 1948's first-quarter all-time high and produced $76,585,120 in sales taxes for the State General Fund. A 5.7 per cent decrease in first-quarter taxable sales by manufacturing, wholesaleing, and miscellaneous concerns from the corresponding quarter of 1949 was more than offset by a 4.4 per cent increase in sales by firms popularly regarded as retailers. The acceleration of sales of consumer-type merchandise may foreshadow an early improvement in producer-goods sales, Bonelli observed. Plans Launched Priceless collections of glassware, china, clocks and costumes will be among the thousands of articles to be displayed to Anaheim residents during the Fall Hobby Show at the Salvation Army social service center serving this area.

At the present time state and federal officials do not consider that there is an actual emergency, he said. The business meeting last night discussed financial questions including the request already made to the county for diversion of $110,310 from state gasoline tax funds to the 13 cities of the county. Such an allocation would approximately equalize the gas tax distributions between the county and cities as was done last year. The executive board also discussed the question of city taxation for fire protection in the rural areas: A meeting of the general membership was announced by Mayor Vern Langenbeck, Huntington Beach, for July 27 at Newport Beach Legion Officers To Take Office The 40-8 Ritual Team of Orange county will install newly elected officers of Anaheim Post No. 72, American Legion, on Monday, July 17, in the Legion Hall, 936 No. Lemon st., at 8 p.m. The public is invited.
