Part of a team of European experts now touring the U.S. to study American production methods under the auspices of the Marshall Plan “Technical Assistance” program, the men spent the afternoon yesterday seeing at first hand how things are done at the Real Gold plant. The group represented three foreign countries, Holland, Denmark and Italy. Guided by Roy Campbell, manager of the Real Gold plant, and Gordon Beisel, director of the research department, the men took in the Olive st., operation from one end to the other. Of major interest to them was the procedure followed in the preparation of refrigerated and frozen products. Beisel, a specialist in this work, showed them the process from fresh fruit to packaged product. The visitors represented two classes of endeavor, mechanical engineers and food processing technicians. As the tour progressed each individual selected the operation most germain to his study and investigated thoroughly. Copious notes were taken. Several of the observers had cameras with which recorded plant operations. Individual members of the group indicated that they welcomed the opportunity to tour American plants and compare methods of Clerk Pleads Guilty to Theft Charge Pleading guilty to grand theft of nearly $11,000 in trust funds that were under his care, Frederick Miller Berghold, 47, today asked for immediate sentence to San Quentin where he faces a term of from one to 10 years. Berthold appeared before Superior Judge Kenneth Morrison. The court, however, declined to pass sentence at once because the law requires that a report of the county probation department must be filed with the court before judgment is pronounced. Judge Morrison set September 8, 10 a.m., as the time for passing sentence.

Emmons, fireman, USN, husband of the former Marjorie F. Johns of 1201 Center st., Anaheim, Calif. The award is based on over-all performance of ships and aircraft squadrons in both the Atlantic and Pacific Fleets in all forms of exercises, in general performance of assigned duties and in administrative material and operational readiness. The emblem, often referred to as the "meatball," is a red triangular pennant on which is centered a black ball. This emblem is displayed on the squadron's aircraft. In addition, enlisted personnel are entitled to wear an "E" on the upper right sleeve of their uniform. The court, however, declined to pass sentence at once because the law requires that a report of the county probation department must be filed with the court before judgment is pronounced. Judge Morrison set September 8, 10 a.m., as the time for passing sentence. An audit of the trust funds in the sheriff's civil department is now under way, to determine the amount of loss which is only known through statements by Bergthold. He stated that he drew $6,000 from one fund over a period of months, to cover his losses at the card table and the race tracks. The remainder came from other funds. He had been dipping into the trust funds for two years, he admitted. Discovery came when he issued a personal check which overdrew his bank account. His request for immediate sentence was made through his attorney Willis J. Clemons, who pointed out that Bergthold is not eligible for probation because his theft involved public funds.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE EST. 1870 ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1950 South Koreans Defeated Truman Orders Railways Seized By Government as the Answer to Strike Threat; Army Takes Over WASHINGTON (AP)—President Truman ordered seizure of the nation's railroads at 4 p.m. (EST) Sunday. Acting because of the nationwide strike called for Monday by two railroad unions, Mr. Truman directed that Secretary of the Army Pace take over and operate the roads "in the name of the United States government." In a statement, Mr. Truman also called upon "every railroad worker to cooperate with the government by remaining on duty."

Counter - attacking reams regained ground Acting because of the nationwide strike called for Monday by two railroad unions, Mr. Truman directed that Secretary of the Army Pace take over and operate the roads "in the name of the United States government." In a statement, Mr. Truman also called upon "every railroad worker to cooperate with the government by remaining on duty." The unions have said they would work under government seizure. In fact, they have several times urged that the government take over the railroads because of their 18 months old wage-hour dispute. Mr. Truman, in a brief statement, noted that the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen and the Order of Railway Conductors have declined to accept recommendations of a presidential emergency board for settling the issues. 'Seizure Imperative' His statement went on: "In the strike situation thus confronting us, governmental seizure is imperative for the protection of our citizens." "It is essential to the national defense and the security of the nation, to the public health, and to the public welfare generally that every possible step be taken by the government to assure to the fullest possible extent continuous and uninterrupted transportation service." "Accordingly I intend to take all steps necessary to assure continued operation of the railroads."

With the end of the Korean conflict not yet in sight and an increase in American troop strength in Germany under consideration, a call of at least such proportions is considered highly likely. The expected November call, like the current program to give the army 100,000 inductees by the end of October, would affect men between 18 and 26 picked by local draft boards. It would follow up an increase of 47,000 announced by the Army yesterday in the number of enlisted Army reservists to be called involuntarily to active duty between now and November 10. The additional enlisted reservists to be ordered to duty are individuals who are not members of organized reserve corps units. The quota announced yesterday brings to 109,000 the total of such reservists facing a call to duty whether or not they want it. In addition, the Army has previously announced that 8432 individual reserve officers of the grade of captain or lower are being ordered to duty. These are officers not assigned in organized units. SAN FRANCISCO (P)—Although 47,000 more reservists will be called up by the Army by November 10 for active duty, only 61 of that number will come from the Sixth Army area, covering eight western states. The area furnished 9449 men in an earlier call. That is why the new summons affects so few this time. Meanwhile, the draft machinery here continued to grind slowly. On Wednesday the draft board score for San Francisco and Richmond was accepted 58, rejected 46, failed to report, 56.

EMIL SCHRAM TO RESIGN NEW YORK (AP)—Emil Schram will resign next month as president of the New York Stock Exchange, a position he has held for 10 years. A concrete example of the effectiveness of work, Glover indicated, was the rapidity with which girls picked up the ballet maneuvers which they demonstrated last night. In just a few weeks they were able to put together a most presentable demonstration. The deciding factor was the training in fundamentals which the girls received during high school summer swim sessions, Glover said. Ballet instructor Tom Hoag echoed the sentiment. "It was amazing how rapidly the girls picked up the routines," he remarked. Here's how the racers finished last night. Boys flutterboard race — Kenneth Dierberger, Clifford Kobernick, Larry Driskill.

Defend Road in New Red Taegu Assault Communists Try For Fifth Time During Week TOKYO, Saturday, Aug. 23, (CP) —A major battle over a new road to Taegu city broke out Friday in the Korean central warfront mountains. It was being fought between Allied South Koreans and the invading reds 12 to 25 miles north and east of Taegu. Counter - attacking South Koreans regained ground they lost During Week TOKYO, Saturday, Aug. 23, (P) —A major battle over a new road to Taegu city broke out Friday in the Korean central warfront mountains. It was being fought between Allied South Koreans and the invading reds 12 to 25 miles north and east of Taegu. Counter-attacking South Koreans regained ground they lost Friday morning. The first blows had been dealt by a forward force of 6000 troops and tanks, prodding before a 20,000-man red force. It was the communists' fifth try of the week to open a road down from the mountains to the largest city left in the Allied southeastern corner of Korea. General MacArthurs' Korean release early Saturday reported South Koreans north of Taegu were continuing to hack away at red infiltrating troops. The summary said about 150 of the enemy had been driven into a walled city nine miles north of Taegu. The city was not identified by name. The release also told of a large concentration of enemy troops, equipment and vehicles near Ha-jong on the north-central front. It said United Nations forces along the northwest Naktong river area Friday beat off enemy patrol operations of unknown strength inflicting casualties on the reds. "Except for patrol action and artillery firing on targets of opportunity by our forces, the remaining sectors of the front remain quiet," the statement said. Hitting east of the blood-soaked (Continued on Page 5) Inlaws, Don't Mix With Speedlaws Honeymooner Finds VAN NUYS (P)—"I had my inlaws with me the whole trip," honeymooner Blaine Edlefsen, Salt Lake City, wrote Traffic Judge Walter C. Allen after his arrest here on a speeding charge. "I guess that is the reason I was speeding. I was so darn anxious to get to Los Angeles and dump them off so we could be alone. Feeding them was what made me go broke and forced me to go back home so soon." Edelfsen promised to pay his $10 fine by mail after his next payday. However, Judge Allen suspended sentence.

Engineers Paint Grim Sewer Picture at Optimist Meet The pressing sewer problem and how the proposed Magnolia trunk sewer will solve it was the topic of discussion at last night's meeting of the Anaheim Optimists Club. Speakers were Bert Ellis, design engineer for the Magnolia Trunk, and Bob Barletta, assistant engineer in charge of maintenance and operation for the Joint Outfall sewer system. Calling attention to the need urgent for public approval at the coming sewer bond vote, September 18, the engineers told Optimists that the present sewer line is now operating up to absolute capacity; then they pointed out that the real test will come during the next few weeks when local canneries and fruit process plants hit their peak season. Both of the engineers expressed apprehension over the answer to the question, "Can the sewer handle it?" The speakers then went on to point out that industries are taking every measure possible to limit the amount of sewage put into the lines, stating that many of the processors have installed equipment which will permit reuse of water, thus cutting down the amount previously discharged as waste. On the strength of these activities, they issued a plea to all homeowners to take every step possible to cut down the amount of domestic sewage. Last night's meeting was pre- "I guess that is the reason I was speeding. I was so darn anxious to get to Los Angeles and dump them off so we could be alone.
