local N.S.G.W. presented a short address of welcome to those present.
Mayor Speaks
Mayor Charles Pearson responded with a talk pointing out that "we are proud of our heritage. Any group concerned with the perpetuation of this heritage is to be commended." He extended official thanks to the California Centennial commission, to the Dwyers for their "untiring efforts," to the ladies of the D.A.R. "who for 22 years have kept the Mother Colony home in order," and assured the city's cooperation in the perpetuation of the project.
"Faye" Lewis, member of a pioneer family and charter member of the local N.S.G.W., then reminisced at length, recalling that the present site of the memorial is located on the 40 acres originally owned by the Lewis family and that he personally had spent many "happy hours" in the Mother Colony house.
Lewis paid tribute to the D.A.R., recalling their Mother Colony home restoration and pioneer picnics, and to the Native Sons of the Golden West, stressing his personal alliance with each.
Reviewing the history of the area, he told how the first group of 40 German families, seeking religious tolerance and freedom from vigilante justice, had first sent a "Swedish engineer named Hanson" here to lay out a colony. He told how the inexperienced farmers laid out "the first irrigated farming project in the west."
Lewis also told of the drought of 1861, the ravages of wild animals. Anaheim Landings originated.

He told how the inexperienced farmers laid out "the first irrigated farming project in the west."
Lewis also told of the drought of 1861, the ravages of wild animals, Anaheim Landings origins, of the many German ship deserters who "turned into our most substantial citizens," of Anaheim's Chinatown and tong war violence, of "the great blight" which wiped out the city's vineyards, the cactus and willow fences built around the four mile square city, the great flood of 1862, the drawing of lots, and the first school in the United States financed by a school bond issue.
In conclusion he paid tribute to the Dywers and Mrs. Henry Kuchel, early Anaheim resident present for services.
A dedication solo by Edith Browne Schuman followed. Miss Anna T. Schiebusch, Grand President of the N.D.G.W., next brought greetings from the national organization, pointing out that dedication ceremonies were much in line with the principles of her group. She also expressed appreciation for the aid of other organizations in the "recording for posterity the beautiful history of our beloved state." She concluded that "as we leave here today let us bear in mind the people who have made possible for us, at least for one day, to live again in the past."
Guests Recognized
Judge Walter H. Odemar, introduced at this point, briefly commended "this shrine for posterity." Supervisor Ralph McFadden of the Third District was also recognized; as were Mrs. "Baddie" Gilderman, President of the Santa Ana N.D.G.W. and Lucille Rowland of the Whittier N.D.G.W.
After a solo by Joy Halloway and the unveiling of the Mother Colony plaque by Mr. and Mrs. Alexis Pelous, Lloyd D. Mitchell of the California Centennials commission pointed out that "this colony by individual and collective enterprise, became a powerful fac-

LIFEGUARDS MAKE MASS RESCUES AT LONG BEACH
One of the biggest mass rescues in Long Beach history — 26 persons caught in a huge riptide—made yesterday a busy day for lifeguards.
The 26 were pulled aboard a launch at 60th Place beach. Other rescues brought the day's total to 40 along Southland beaches.
Long Beach lifeguards Chuck Iced and Ralph Blood had another distinction. They gaffed and killed 100-pound shark which stirred up quite a commotion among bathers at another Long Beach strand.

Before the United States gives its answer, the State Department is understood to want the views of Ambassador Loy Henderson at New Delhi and possibly those of other key American envoys. Presumably the reply will be submitted to President Truman for his approval when the process is completed.
Acheson is faced with a delicate problem in avoiding any peril of alienating Nehru and India at a time when U.S., and the United Nations keenly appreciate the importance of Asiatic nations in the crisis.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Justice Burton of the Supreme Court refused today to stay the civil contempt conviction of Bank of America and Transamerica, Inc. and the presidents of the two corporations.
After listening to more than two hours of legal arguments, Justice Burton said he did not find sufficient grounds to justify him in overriding the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
