Alaheim’s Al Call Urges More Entries in Fair Plate Displays
Lurking somewhere in the back yards and gardens of Orange county are potential winners in the County Fair’s plate division, Al Call of Anaheim, chairman of that section, said today.
Call explained that, inasmuch as the Fair opens Wednesday, August 16 and runs through Sunday, August 20, a deadline for plate display entries has been extended to Monday, August 14.
He explained that the plate displays offer a perfect opportunity for individual gardeners to show their prize fruits and vegetables—anything from cucumbers to carrots—in competition with neighboring growers. There is no entry fee, and substantial awards are offered in many divisions.
Call said that more than 200 persons already have filed entries, more than double last year’s record, and that there is plenty of room for scores more. Virtually every fruit and vegetable grown in Orange county may compete for prizes and ribbons, he added.
The plate displays will be shown in new-type Ventura tables, which are enclosed in glass and fully ventilated so that displays remain in their original state for a much longer time than in old-style racks, Call added.
In addition to the plate displays, dry beans and peas will be shown under direction of William C. Cook of Irvine. The forage plants division is under Charles W. Musser of Garden Grove. Field and garden seeds are in charge of E. L. Abernathy of Santa Ana.

New Rail Strike Threat Looms, Groups Confer
WASHINGTON (AP)—The White House is making another effort today to keep a big railroad strike from breaking out in the midst of the Korean war crisis.
Union leaders representing 300,000 conductors and trainmen are demanding a 40-hour work week.
President Truman’s special assistant, John R. Steelman, a veteran labor trouble shooter, was disclosed yesterday to have been in closed-door conferences with representatives of the major railroads and the two unions for two days.
None of the parties would discuss the White House talks, which also were attended by members of the National Mediation board which administers the railway labor act.
The two unions want a 40-hour work week without loss in pay, a concession made by the railroads to more than a million members on the 17 non-operating railroad unions a year ago.
A presidential fact-finding board recommended against the shorter week at the same pay in its report to Mr. Trump.

In addition to the plate displays, dry beans and peas will be shown under direction of William C. Cook of Irvine. The forage plants division is under Charles W. Musser of Garden Grove.

burden. "There is the same prospect of exceeding the tax rate limits in Districts 2 and 3, and these districts also have remote areas which will not benefit," McFadden observed.
But all districts expressed willingness to share in the cost of test suits that will be brought against Chairman Vincent Humeston individually in the state district court of appeals to obtain a court interpretation of the "gentlemen's agreement," such a court ruling being required by bond attorneys before they will approve the bond issues.
O'Melveny and Myers, bond attorneys, also insist on handling such a court action, at a fee of between $1000 and $1100. The court suit would be based on an arrangement by which Humeston would refuse to sign bonds.
Administrative Officer Nelson Launer ran into a snag when he announced a plan to cut office expenses during the next several months, by dropping Daniel Nelson; auditor-controller, from the staff, naming Miss Ora Mae Merritt as secretary of the joint administrative body and the individual districts, and adding three clerk positions. Miss Merritt has been serving recently as assistant secretary. Her salary would be increased from $200 to $250. Clerks would receive $8, $10 and $12 per day. Nelson's salary is $350 per month.
Discussion developed a rift between Launer and Nelson, and Launer pointed out that since he is administrative officer with the responsibility of management, he should have the right to select his assistants.
Mayor Mandy of Santa Ana moved to adopt, for District 1, Launer's resolution setting up the new staff. There was no second accusation of hit-run driving by Curtis Edgar Mooney of Stanton after Mooney had been thrown from his horse last July 9 and the horse had stepped on the rider's thumb and covered it with mud.
Discussion developed a rift between Launer and Nelson, and Launer pointed out that since he is administrative officer with the responsibility of management, he should have the right to select his assistants.
Mayor Mandy of Santa Ana moved to adopt, for District 1, Launer’s resolution setting up the new staff. There was no second for the time being.
District 11, Huntington Beach, then passed a motion to refer the resolution to the executive committee. This deepened the silence that followed Mandy's failure to get a second.
Supervisor McFadden’s motions then got Districts 2 and 3 to pass the resolution, but Willis Warner of Huntington Beach, chairman of the supervisors, and member of the boards of Districts 2 and 3, as well as District 11, being chairman of District 3, announced that he was not voting.
District 5 lacked a quorum, but Districts 6 and 7 passed the Launer resolution. Supervisor Smith said that everybody understood that he never had favored the temporary organization, under Launer, but since the boards had placed Launer in charge, they certainly should back him up, and give him authority to do his job.
Mandy then got a second to his motion from Chairman Virgil Reed, and District 1 approved the resolution. But District 11 still hung out for referring to the executive committee, so the resolution was blocked, since it required all districts' approval.
Launer expressed his views vigorously, regarding responsibility without authority, but the meeting closed with District 11 still holding out.

Fair.
Some exhibitors are feeding as much as 24 pounds of corn and other concentrates per day to their steers.
Packers will kill beef and hang it in their coolers for 10 days to age for just the hide. Buyers get the liver, heart, tongue, etc., which alone is around 20 pounds of meat worth close to a dollar a pound.
Show officials are expecting packers to come for our sale, as well as hotel and cafe owners. "We are appealing to all groups and individuals of Southern California to be here for the sale," states Elgin Hall, junior livestock superintendent.
If buyers like, they can leave steers or other animals purchased till the fair is over and will get a sign placed by the animal stating who purchased it.
UNSIGHTLY BLACK GOLD
Orange County supervisors are considering the protest of Laguna Beach property owners against proposed oil drilling along the coast. The Lagunans ask that oil mining and construction be confined to the hills, out of sight of the coast.
Mickey Harris, Eddie Yost and Sam Mele of the Washington Senators are products of the Queens county sandlots in New York City.
