KUCHEL Publisher MAX BESLER Assistant Publisher WILLARD GREGORY City and Sports Editor HOWARD HALL News Editor MYLES BRADLEY Picture Editor NEIL STANLEY Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager Anaheim's big news story . . Yesterday's Anaheim Gazette reported two events which are of interest and importance. One was the story concerning the active expansion program of the hosiery industry in Anaheim. The other story was about a fellow who has built the basis of a highly useful business by manufacturing an "internal pipe-wrench" which firmly grips the inside of a pipe and avoids damage to threads and other cuttings on the pipe. Recently, there have been other such stories in the Anaheim Gazette: A new paint firm will locate here, a couple of fellows are opening a furniture manufactory. Southern California has by no means reached its peak of development but probably is only in its industrial infancy. It means, whether you like it or not, Southern California is going to become known for something else besides oranges and sunny skies. It will become a land of greater opportunity which will attract more industries and more people. And, Anaheim lies right smack in the path of this economic development. Consequently, new business firms and industries — whether IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago Died—At Orangethorpe, August 6, Sarah Matilda Smith, wife of W. J.

Hill, while at play on the threshing machine at his father's home in Claire, on Friday caught his three first fingers of his right hand in some manner and had them so badly smashed that Dr. Bickford thinks they will have to be amputated.

During the war Charley was in the Government service, acting as electrician on the troop ship Great Northern, which broke all records crossing the Atlantic. He engaged in business for himself in Vallejo after his discharge but finally sold out and returned to Anaheim entering the employ of the city as an electrician. He is now a locomotive engineer, and expects one of these days to be pulling the Twentieth Century Limited across the continent. He is one of the boys who makes good at whatever he undertakes.

It will become a land of greater opportunity which will attract more industries and more people. And, Anaheim lies right smack in the path of this economic development. Consequently, new business firms and industries — whether they are one-man operations or firms hiring dozens of folks—are important news stories. These industries will absorb employment slack caused by the influx of new people, they will provide already-established retail stores with new customers, their employees will be in the market for housing, they will pay taxes. Properly handled the influx of industry can bring solid prosperity and attractive development to an area. Anaheim should be sure it has a program ready and is able to adjust to this expected economic changes. Truman Trivia Though President Truman doesn't object to smoking, he works touch tobacco in any form . . . he insists on being on time for all appointments and warns him tardy assistant that "it's an insult to be late." . . . Truman has gone overboard for television, has three sets in Blair House, one in his office and even one on board his yacht . . . The president takes a swim in the White House every morning before breakfast . . . He doesn't like air conditioning. In fact, his office is the only space in the White House that isn't artificially cooled . . . despite the terrible pressures of his job the president maintains a unified formality and friendly manner throughout each hectic day. Only outward sign of tension is an occasional unconscious wringing of the presidential hands . . . if any would-be assassin ever managed to break through the ring of alert Secret Service agents guarding the chief executive, the assassin will be in for the surprise of his life from Harry Truman. The exact nature of the president's "secret weapon," however, can be told . . . When the First Lady is in town, Mr. T., quits work at 5 p.m., sharp and heads for Blair House. When Mrs. Truman is out of town, the White House staff never knows when the boss will administer my part of the controls program, I must have authority," Sawyer notified the White House. "That's impossible with Symington breathing down my neck." So, rather than cause a ruckus Truman will assign Steelman to do the coordinating, with Symington functioning as No. 1 adviser and trouble-shooter. Other assistant coordinators will be Budget Director Fred Lawton and Leon Keyserling, chairman of the president's Economic Council. Miss Emily C. Martin announces that she has purchased the Anaheim restaurant on Los Angeles street and advertises a well cooked and substantial meal at 25 cents. 25 Years Ago Anaheim's registration now is 5400. According to accepted ratio of 2.7 population to each registered vote our population is 14,580. In 1920 we had 5626 population. Charley McAulay came up from Members of the Sunbeam Class of the First Christian church were entertained last Wednesday evening at the home of their class teacher, Mrs. D. Carlisle, 201 East Adele street. The Carlisle home was beautifully decorated with summer blossoms for the occasion and late in the afternoon light refreshments were served. Those present were Ardith Wills, Theodore McGei, Elizabeth Meyers, Bertha Fuller, Marion Miller, Nellie Barr, Marjorie Carlisle, Adaline Anderson and Evelyn Mosberger. By TOM McNAMARA and JACK ANDERSON Ed. note—While Drew Pearson is on a brief vacation, his column will be written by members of his staff. WASHINGTON—One of the untold stories of the Korean war is that Joe Stalin had blunt forewarning from President Truman that he wouldn't put up with any more Soviet shenanigans—in Korea or anywhere else. The ultimatum was relayed by Trygve Lie, U.N. secretary-general, when he visited Moscow just before the Korean outbreak. Lie wanted to work out a "peace" formula whereby we would recognize communist China as a member of the United Nations if Stalin, in turn, agreed to call off the cold war. However, Truman flatly rejected this proposal when the U.N. official sounded him out before leaving for Moscow. The president said he was willing to meet Stalin halfway on "honorable" grounds, but not as an appeaser. Somewhat crestfallen, Lie asked as the conference broke up: "Mr. President, is there any message you would like me to give to Generalissimo Stalin? "No," replied Truman. Then he added, crisply: "Yes, tell the generalissimo that the only thing we want from him is peace. Also, tell him that the United States will take no more pushing around anywhere he tries it." That was one month before the Korean invasion. Unexpected Coordinator Top coordinator of the economic controls program will not be Stuart Symington, chief of the National Securities Resources board, as generally believed, but John R. Steelman, assistant to the president. Symington, a man of action who doesn't hesitate to tread on toes to get a job done, stepped too many times on the large brogans of Defense Secretary Louis Johnson. As a result, Johnson vigorously protested to the White House when he heard that Symington was being considered for the coordinator post. Another cabinet member who dislikes the NSRB chief and who helped put the Indian sign on him is Secretary of Commerce Charles Sawyer. "If I am to do a responsible job..." Despite what the brass hats are telling Congress, it will be another year before American production lines start rolling out tanks that can duel with Russia's 60-ton metal monsters. These new super-tanks will come in three sizes. Only the smallest, however, is ready for production and will soon start rolling off the Cadillac assembly line. Of course, this junior model is no match for the Soviet 60-tonners, and its big brothers are still in the test-model stage and won't be ready for production until next year. Meanwhile, the Army has five grades of tanks. The smallest are classified simply as "X." First to arrive in Korea, these baby tanks crumpled like eggshells beneath the advancing red army's tanks. The next lowest grades, Sherman I and Sherman II tanks, are now arriving in Korea, and the Marines are spearheaded by still a larger tank, the Pershing. Yet our biggest and best tank, the Patton, still hasn't reached the battlefront. Meanwhile, the Army is hastily converting Pershing into Patton tanks as a stop-gap measure, but even the Patton is a tin can alongside Russia's mighty Stalin tank. Today, less than one-fifth of a hospital's area is devoted to bed space. All remaining space is taken up by supporting facilities. ANOTHER BEACHHEAD INFLATION HOARDER The whole situation posed the major difference between Joe and the North Korean man. The American fighter a tradition he will have of everything. The North Korean doesn't. He has never known it. He has concentrated on bare essentials of battle. The North Korean can up a few balls of rice, fire and a couple of ammunition bandoliers and take off to the hills and be self-sufficient for days. That is the typical of the Army but no longer is. The Korean a skinny, bandy-legged soldier who can operate through that would wear out a moose goat. The U.S. soldier today has to put his faith in massed and a gigantic break-through has borrowed the German krieg principle but he is to make it work in a country cart paths—and without or the right kind of arm punch through. He hasn't had the man to protect the armor he has ambush traps, from the side of enemy infantry who lay in the hills for him—or suing him if he stands still. Some officers think our has become "'road-bound soft." One told me "we aren't ing the enemy—we are fighting mountains and mountain roads. And we just don't know how to fight like that." Personally I agree more another officer who said: tering my part of the program, I must have by,” Sawyer notified the House. “That’s impossible Wymington breathing down.” other than cause a ruckus, will assign Steelman to coordinating, with Syming-actioning as No. 1 advisor double-shooter. Other as-coordinators will be Bud-ector Fred Lawton and Eyserling, chairman of the It’s Economic Council.

When the First Lady in, Mr. T., quits work at carp and heads for Blair When Mrs. Truman is out in the White House staff rows when the boss will check that we so kindly give them: Or do we? But what are we saying? Oh, yes, here is what we heard about frozen concentrate DIRECT from Florida and from people who know. There will be very little, if any, carryover. Concentrates operators who had been told by merchandisers they would have to hold their stuff in their cold rooms until October-November are NOW receiving shipping orders DIRECT to retail outlet concentration points, completely by-passing the cold rooms in the markets. See here, Private Wilcox. That is a better deal than the Exchange growers got for their stuff that you sold cheaper to Uncle Sam for the school lunch program. But you got the business because some other groups of California growers would not sell that cheap. But who got hurt? Thats right: Every Exchange grower. The MOD and AFG growers lost the order but kept their fruit to sell for more money. We will bet that a very few of the Exchange Valencia growers wanted to sell cheaper. They don’t want to beat their neighbor with lower returns. How can anyone sell cheaper and then advertise that they get their growers more money? It don’t make sense. Barnum lived a long time ago. Hal Boyle (Editor's Note: This is the second of two columns comparing the fighting habits of American and North Korean soldiers.) ADVANCE—With U. S. Troops to protect the armor he has ambush traps, from the end of enemy infantry who lay in the hills for him—or su him if he stands still. Some officers think our has become “road-bound soft. One told me “we aren’t ing the enemy—we are in mountains and mountain roads And we just don’t know fight like that.” Personally I agree more another officer who said: “It isn’t a matter of road bound at all. That only way we have been able fight up until now. It would only have been cu Don’t worry—when we do the infantry we need here will go up into the mount and comb out the reds at same time we bust through the roads.” We have done it before. were hills in Tunisia, Sicily France, Belgium, Okinawa went through them to vic and we will again. But it is now for those who hold and the help they need. Super-Tanks What the brass hats are Congress, it will be another more American production rolling out tanks that deal with Russia's 60-ton munitions. New super-tanks will have three sizes. Only the however, is ready for and will soon start of the Cadillac assembly course, this junior model match for the Soviet 60-and its big brothers are the test-model stage and ready for production year. While, the Army has five tanks. The smallest are simply as "X." First in Korea, these baby dumped like eggshells the advancing red army's next lowest grades, Sheridan Sherman II tanks, are living in Korea, and the rare spearheaded by still tank, the Pershing. Yet it and best tank, the Patton hasn't reached the end. While, the Army is hastily ing Pershing into Patton a stop-gap measure, but Patton is a tin can alongside's mighty Stalin tank. Less than one-fifth of a area is devoted to bed remaining space is tak-supporting facilities. The prorate in our way of thinking was designed to hold down shipments if the price sagged to a point where the grower got no money. But the Exchange's Wohlwend used it to force all shippers to hustle up and get the Valencias out of the way no matter what the fruit was bringing. Florida found this out and they had no prorate. They cut their shipments and sent only their finest fruit to market fresh. They also used their "by-products" fruit to make a product that helped bring the grower the highest return he ever had. They got over the idea down there of using "by-products" fruit as a salvage operation. The propaganda that there would be a huge carry-over of Florida frozen concentrate which has been used by the Exchange, and dreamed up by them, we believe, seems to be on the wane. In their last "News Letter" there was no mention of this sort of thing. Perhaps they did not have room. But we believe they had heard something. Qien sabe? We have heard a few things about frozen concentrate. Collier's magazine has a swell article in it this week on what frozen concentrate has done for the Florida grower. It has made him money. Don't fail to read it. One paragraph in this article quotes the salesmanager of one of the big concerns as saying it is his belief that there is a market for 80,000,000 gallons of frozen orange concentrate in this country every year. That is right 80 million. We sure hope Wohlwend and Wilcox read that article. (Maybe a few of their growers should send them a copy?) Of course, one should remember that the salesmanager of the big concern is interested in making a profit (how awful and vulgar.) and he better, brother. Wilcox and Wohlwend have only to ladle out the soft soap and endorse their Hal Boyle (Editor's Note: This is the second of two columns comparing the fighting habits of American and North Korean soldiers.) ADVANCE—With U. S. Troops in Korea—(P)—One of the tragedies of the Korean war is that America has been able to supply its outnumbered troops with many of the comforts of home—but as yet hasn't delivered enough men or tools to win victory. They are on the way—but many an American frontline doughboy unit would gladly give up its occasional ration of beer for a few more fresh soldiers or slugging Patton tanks. "It wasn't this way in the last war," is a typical frontline comment. The fact there are stacks of tooth brushes and razor blades here but very few modern tanks shows two things about the American soldier and the nation behind him: 1. The soldier likes the comforts and conveniences of peace in wartime so far as they are possible, and his country likes to give them to him. 2. The United States has been in a better position to make its candy bars in mass production. Tanks haven't been mass-produced. The enemy has gambled on guns and rice rather than on chewing gum and hair tonics. And it is men, guns and rice they have. "We should have insisted that both sides fight this war with tubes of brushless shaving cream," bellyached one American tankman. "Then we could have smothered them from the start. It would take them years to catch up with the edge we got in shaving cream." The whole situation points up the major difference between GI Joe and the North Korean fighting man. The American fights on tradition he will have plenty of everything. The North Korean doesn't. He has never known plenary. He has concentrated on the rare essentials of battle. The North Korean can grab up a few balls of rice, his gun and a couple of ammunition bandoliers and take off through the hills and be self-sufficient for days. That is the type of wilderness scouting that used to be typical of the American out no longer is. The Korean is skinny, bandy-logged fellow who can operate through ranges that would wear out a mountain coat. The U.S. soldier today prefers to put his faith in massed steel and a gigantic break-through. He was borrowed the German blitzing principle but he is trying to make it work in a country of oxert paths—and without enough the right kind of armor to punch through. He hasn't had the manpower to protect the armor he has from ambush traps, from the hordes of enemy infantry who lay in wait for the hills for him—or surround him if he stands still. Some officers think our army is become "road-bound" and left. One told me "we aren't fighting the enemy—we are fighting mountains and mountain roads." And we just don't know how to fight like that." Personally I agree more with other officer who said: While Mr. Waters is on vacation "Affairs of State" is being written by prominent Californians. Today's column is by Ned Green, Secretary-Manager of the California State Fair. By JED GREEN Secretary-Manager, California State Fair SACRAMENTO — Not many know, perhaps, that our State Fair was started by a far-seeing group of pioneers in 1854, while California was still in the throes of the Gold Rush and most men were thinking more of the yellow metal than of agriculture and industry. From a humble start in San Francisco, with a livestock show at the famed Mission Dolores and displays at a downtown hall, the fair has grown to its present stature. Basic policy of the fair is stated in the agricultural code which reads: "The board of directors of the State Agricultural society, subject to the approval of the Department of Finance, shall provide for and manage an annual fair or exposition at Sacramento of the industries and industrial products of this state and commercial products exported and imported through the ports of this state." In addition to its 96-year history of encouraging agriculture and its various branches, the State two products that come readily to mind. Yet we are able to show little of these to fair visitors. In Agriculture we are the second state in the value of our crops, with a variety of produce unequalled anywhere. We do show a representative amount of the products of our agriculture empire—in our overflowing livestock and dairy products exhibits, our 4-H and Future Farmer displays, the exhibits of a majority of our counties with nearly 1000 different agricultural items, and a grand flower show. Then we have a big display of farm machinery and equipment, a magnificent evening horse show, a big building filled with poultry and another where rabbits are king for our 11-day fair. To show all of our state's tremendous outpouring of produce from our rich soil and our busy factories requires far more in the way of facilities than we now have. Our present 207 acres give us no chance to expand adequately, since we are surrounded by a residential district. That is the reason the legislature approved, after an extensive survey, the purchase of a new site and construction of an entire new fair some four years hence. Nine hundred acres north of Sacramento have been purchased and before many months construction will begin on what may be the most modern and best planned fairgrounds in the world. SUSPECTED FIRE-BUG LOS ANGELES (AP) — A La Verne youth, Jerry Doan Taylor, 17, was held in the county jail protect the armor he has from bush traps, from the hordes enemy infantry who lay in wait at the hills for him—or surround him if he stands still. Some officers think our army is become "road-bound" and fit. One told me "we aren't fighting the enemy—we are fighting mountains and mountain roads. And we just don't know how to fight like that." Personally I agree more with another officer who said: "It isn't a matter of being road bound at all. That is the only way we have been able to fight up until now. It wouldn't have done any good to post our new doughboys in the hills. They would only have been cut off. Don't worry—when we do have the infantry we need here they will go up into the mountains and comb out the reds at the same time we bust through on the roads." We have done it before. There are hills in Tunisia, Sicily, Italy, France, Belgium, Okinawa. We went through them to victory—and we will again. But it is hard for those who hold and want help they need. Basic policy of the fair is stated in the agricultural code which reads: "The board of directors of the State Agricultural society, subject to the approval of the Department of Finance, shall provide for and manage an annual fair or exposition at Sacramento of the industries and industrial products of this state and commercial products exported and imported through the ports of this state." In addition to its 96-year history of encouraging agriculture and its various branches, the State Fair must aid wherever possible in development of the state's other industries, provide educational exhibits for visitors and act as an agent in letting the world know of California's vast resources and productivity. That, we must admit, is quite a job. It is the goal which the board of directors and the management of the fair are striving to reach. If we take just the matter of showing the industries of the state, it is easy to imagine what a gigantic undertaking it is. Hollywood is the world's movie center, yet we show nothing as yet of that industry. Our state is a leader in a dozen manufacturing fields, and we produce huge quantities of oil and minerals, to mention just SUSPECTED FIRE-BUG LOS ANGELES (UP) — A La Verne youth, Jerry Doan Taylor, 17, was held in the county jail on suspicion of setting nine fires in the San Dimas area since last June 1.
