MELLEN Assistant Advertising Manager MARY ROULAND Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager A real puzzler... Over in the middle of this page you see a picture drawn by our editorial page cartoonist which expresses some concern about the anti-subversives bill which Congress passed over the president's veto last week-end. Among other things, the bill would require communists and leaders of communist fronts to register with the Justice Department. It would let the government toss spies and saboteurs into interment camps during emergencies requiring use of armed force. Whether this bill as law could do what it proposes to do—or would be worse in some ways than no such law at all—is a matter of argument. President Truman says it would hamper, not help, communist-control. And he says the bill, in the end, might hurt innocent people and damage civil liberties. One thing is certain: This could knowingly give to a member of a communist organization information listed as "classified" by the president or head of a department or agency, unless authorized by the president. 9. No member of a communist organization, front or otherwise, could receive such information. 10. No member of a communist outfit or communist front could receive a passport to get out of the country or even apply for one. 11. And it would be a crime for any government employee to give such a passport. 12. It would be a crime for any communist group or communist front, or for any individual acting for either, to send any material through the mails or talk over the radio or television without labeling what was written or said as material coming from a communist organization.

There were present Drs. WASHINGTON — There have been a lot of Congressional debates as to who was to blame for being caught napping in Korea. But no Congressman has touched upon the most amazing story of Korean espionage—the manner which a Korean Mata Hari lived with an American Army colonel and gave the communists intimate details on American army strength. The lady in question, now executed as a spy, was Kim Soo Im, a vivacious, American - educator, Korean girl who was married to one of Korea's top communists, Lee Kang Kook. At the same time she was married to Lee she was the mistress of a top American colonel, John E. Baird, who as provost marshall, was in charge of keeping law and order among American troops in Korea. He was also top adviser to the new Korean army. Colonel Baird occupied one of the most elegant houses in Seoul and for a time Madame Kim lived with him. According to the Korean press, she even bore him a child. It was well known to Koreans that Kim Soo Im was intimate with the colonel. They were seen together publicly. And it was also known by many Koreans that she was married to one of the top communists, Lee Kang Kook, who had been hiding from the military government and for whom the authorities had thrown out a draqnet. However, because of American prestige, Koreans did nothing about the situation. After all, Americans were Korea's benefactors, the trainers of Korean troops, in effect the rulers of the country. Colonel Baird himself was senior adviser to the Korean army, so it was embarrassing to make any protest. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of the Anaheim Gazette By MRS.

Besides Mr. Cohn takes orders for any periodical or music published in the United States. 50 Years Ago The monthly meeting of the Orange County Medical Association was held some evenings ago in the office of Dr. W. B. Wood of Orange. There were present Drs. Medlock, Ball, Lacy, Berneike and Dryer of Santa Ana; Dr. G. S. Eddy of Anaheim; Dr. William Freeman, Fullerton; Dr. W. S. Marshburn, El Modena; Drs. H. S. Gordon and F. E. Wilson, Westminster; Drs. W. B. Wood, W. H. Parker and Frank L. Wood, Orange. Dr. Wood of Orange read a paper and gave an interesting clinic with the X-ray. The association was organized 11 years ago, and has been a great factor in promoting professional harmony and good fellowship among the doctors of the county. Dr. W. B. Wood is president and Dr. J. L. Dryer secretary. 25 Years Ago Miss Mongant Bradley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Bradley of So.

She was accompanied by her brother, Arthur Bradley, who will begin his second year in Harvard law school. Stewart Jayne and Ralph Goodale left this week for Corvalis, Oregon, being entered as students at the state agricultural college. Mr. and Mrs. Otto des Granges and family spent the week end at Anaheim Landing. Counterespionage? When the above facts, plus a great many others, were disclosed officially at the time of Kim Soo Im's trial, Colonel Baird gave the official explanation that he was using the lady as his interpreter and to get information from her. If so, he was not very successful. For subsequent developments have shown that the communists knew all about our military operations, while we knew little about them. Furthermore, when Kim Soo Im was tried, last May, the Koreans amassed such overwhelming evidence against her that she confessed all. Colonel Baird, who had been in intimate day-to-day contact with her, was made to look extremely foolish for not having known the same facts. It was even reported that Madame Kim had hidden her communist husband in the home of the American Army colonel for a few days when the search for him was getting hot. The colonel's house was a big one, so this was not difficult to do without Baird's knowing it. For more than a year, Lee Kang Kook managed to foil the South Korean police and American military. Eventually, he escaped into North Korea in an American Army jeep—by courtesy of Colo- IF ONLY THE WRONG PARTY DOESN'T GET HURT! THE INNOCENTS ANTI-RED MEASURES canned juice and frost trate.

After all, were Korea's benefacturers of Korean troops, the rulers of the country. Baird himself was senior to the Korean army, embarrassing to make it. nel Bard's mistress. Communist Husband Escapes Colonel Baird had given his lady love a new Chrysier. However, she did not use this car to take her husband across the 38th Parallel. Instead, she flipped a Jeep from the Army motor pool and had it driven by a trusted communist driver, Choi Yong Tau. Lee was disguised as a doctor, and Kim went along to tell the border guards that her mother was desperately ill in North Korea and the doctor was on his way to see her. Thus the No. 2 communist of Korea escaped — thanks to the U. S. Army. On one occasion, when Kim warged to get an Army Jeep for a trip up near the 38th Parallel, Harry Frelinghusen, son of the GOP ex-Senator from New Jersey, then an Army lieutenant, refused. However, he was overruled by a colonel. Madame Kim got the Jeep. Other Mata Haris?? The case of Kim Soo Im and Colonel Baird probably could have taken place in various parts of the world—especially in Japan and Germany, where American troops are stationed far from home and families. And what the Army is worried about right now is that other communist spies might be planted on American officers. Colonel Baird, 60 years old, born in Ireland, was a policeman in Rhode Island and a reserve officer when he joined the Army as a major in 1941. He was stationed in Korea for four years, three of them as provost marshal, one of them as senior adviser to the Korean National Police." Kim Soo Im, orphaned at an early age, was raised by an American missionary family and educated in an American school. She spoke English perfectly, acquired the vivaciousness of an American girl. When American troops entered Korea she served as hostess at the Banta Hotel in Seoul, which was General Hodges headquarters. This was the U. S. Army's nerve center and it gave them "brass" that Colony Quips The announcement last week, carefully timed for maximum propaganda purposes on growers, that Sunkist on cans had finally been purchased by the Exchange came as no great earth-shattering announcement to readers of this newspaper. We told about the squeeze on our "freshmen" last August 4, when some big eastern operators or maybe even Cal-Pack started to think about getting some California frozen concentrate into the market under the Sunkist label. Things were moving along at a good pace and we might have seen "Sunkist Frozen Concentrate" coming out of the Golden Juices plant in Fullerton which is an affiliate of Eadington Fruit and American Fruit Growers. This would have been a sensation. There would have been some red faces. Relax boys, that is all we are going to say along this line for all we know about the deal is hearsay. But we believe that hear-say is better than the "iron curtain" unless you want complete domination by the hirelings of the kremlin. Anyway it was a good move and the right to use Sunkist on cans now rests in the place it should be. There is no question in our mind but that the Exchange growers should have this name for their canned stuff as well as their fresh fruit. We have said this for a long time. We have said it in ways that there could be no mistake about. And we are not looking for any credit. The only thing we are looking for is more money in the Valencia growers' pockets. Some years ago if you had told the top Exchange "brass" that Ninety-six emergency medical doctor have been called and successfully cared through the Oranga County Association's 24-hour service during its first five of operation, it was announced day by William Tobitt e secretary. The calls have originated in the Santa Ana area, I have been placed from my county and beach areas. They have been distributed 32 physicians and have occured all hours of the day and all terminate on the station's listed number, K2-8827. The association urges rangers for a family plan be made prior to actual such services in order that might be minimized in any agency. Also, Tobitt pointed out serious complications could forestalled by calling them at the first sign of illness. Mariners Hold Fall Meeting Mariners of the Presby Church held their first fall meeting at the Presbyterian dining hall last Wednesday December 20. A potluck dinner proceeded meeting, followed by a harris solo by "William Talewich" a clarinet solo by Dr. John cox. "Climbing Up the Mount and "Them Bones," negrouals, were sung by a quartet cluding Ray Link, Bill Talc Dr. John Wilcox and David lins. Dr. Ben Janes of Pacific isades, formerly of Santa presented an excellent talk marital counseling and main ing a Christian home and riage. Birthdays of the month were knowledgeled to Mrs. Bessie holds, Henry Snyder, and Glenn Kunz. Guests invited to attend meeting were Mr. and Mrs. D Peterson, Mr. and Mrs. Tom H Kim Soo Im, orphaned at an early age, was raised by an American missionary family and educated in an American school. She spoke English perfectly, acquired the vivaciousness of an American girl. When American troops entered Korea she served as hostess at the Banta Hotel in Seoul, which was General Hodges headquarters. This was the U. S. Army's nerve center and it gave her access to all sorts of gossip and tid bits which she relayed to her communist husband. During her trial it developed that Kim had given the commanders the complete plans for the withdrawal of U. S. troops from Korea. It was also revealed that she had a large amount of Japanese yen and was spending it in Seoul, perhaps for bribery, perhaps to create inflation. Colonel Baird left Korea on June 3, at about the time his mistress was executed. He is now on leave from the Army.

Maybe this can be proved true. But it can only be done by the maximum merchandising efforts. They can not sit back and sell their growers produce in "cheaper fruit" contracts and ever get back that $1¼ million. Now they are going out in the deep water (we hope) and try to sell products on a quality basis. Or are we mistaken and this is only another big smoke screen designed to appeal to gullible growers with no real merchandising program behind it? The grower wants results and he wants them in cash and not in and Exchange "News Letter" which only costs him more money. No California grower should be satisfied with less than 50 cents a pound for soluble solids, net on the tree. We believe that this purchase by Exchange growers can be of benefit to the entire California citrus industry—if it is properly exploited. We are delighted that the move was finally made and hope that it heralds a change in philosophy which we think has long been needed. Now Exchange growers are face to face with this: now, more than ever there must be an awakening in the advertising set-up or the $1¼ million could just as well have been saved. We don't care who sells the fruit so long as the grower gets the money he should instead of "baloney" he can't eat. If You Can Learn to Write... ...

It is light, coming from the sun. We don't care who sells the fruit so long as the grower gets the money he should instead of "baloney" he can't eat. 96 Served by Medical Assoc. Phone Setup Ninety-six emergency calls for medical doctor have been received and successfully completed through the Orange County Medical Association's 24-hour teelphone service during its first five months of operation, it was announced today by William Tobitt executive secretary. The calls have originated mostly in the Santa Ana area, but also have been placed from northern county and beach areas as well. They have been distributed among physicians and have occurred at all hours of the day and night. All terminate on the association's listed number, Kimberly 1827. The association urges that arrangements for a family physician made prior to actual need or which services in order that delay might be minimized in an emergency. Also, Tobitt pointed out, many serious complications could be restalled by calling the doctor the first sign of illness.

Quests invited to attend the ring were Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Jason, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Beale. COLOR: And the last principle we need for our picture is COLOR. What is color? It is light, coming from the sun. God has placed a big flashlight in the sky and he passes it around the earth so that everyone can enjoy its light for part of the day or night. So light changes. What color is sunlight? Yes. Yellow? Yes. It's all colors mixed together. Take your flashlights and put yellow cellophane over one, blue cellophane over another, and red over another. Now shine them all on the same spot and you will get white. How is it we have different colored lights or colors? That's called a "spectrum." You see it in a rainbow. The sunlight is split, much like a piece of wood, and broken as it passes thru the glass-like mirrors of each raindrop. And the colors we see in the rainbow are all the colors on the earth. At one end is red, at the other is violet. COLOR is healthful, it makes us happy . . . that's when we use it correctly. Now I can cook some dishes, but when I put them together they neither look good nor taste good. But my wife, who knows cooking, can cook the same dishes and put them together and they taste and look delicious. COLOR IS HEALTHFUL! Outside one end of this rainbow (or spectrum) is "infra-red" which the human eye cannot see but which is a health color ... doctors give it for light treatments. At the other end is "ultra-violet." Doctors give this too . . . in fact it is what makes your arms and legs so beautifully tanned. HUE: We name the colors by their position in the rainbow . . . and that is the only way to name the hue of a color. (It's sensible too because the "Apple Green paint your mother bought in Chicago is not the same as the "Apple Green Paint" she buys here. Though both are labeled "Apple Green." CHROME: We name the brilliance of the color by calling it bright, neutral, or dull. VALUE: We name the value of the color (amount of white or dark) by calling it light, or medium, or dark. When you can do this, you can describe a color accurately over a long distance telephone. Try it. Now our ball at the top (with color) takes on real meaning. It's not (now) a grapefruit, or hoop, or zero; it is, definitely, a child's rubber ball.

Joe Louis Story Due Wednesday NEW YORK (T)—Last January, in an exclusive poll conducted by the Associated Press, a majority of the nation's sportswriters voted the biggest story of 1950 would be the official return of Joe Louis to the ring. Well, the "Joe Louis story" unfolds at Yankee stadium Wednesday night—but there's nary a scribe in the country who will confidently predict the outcome. Joe, it seems, is an unknown quantity; like the atom bomb, he could go off with a big blast, or not at all. At any rate, by midnight Wednesday we'll know if the Brown Bomber can give away seven years to Ezzard Charles and still retain his internationally famous reputation. Louis, a plump 36, thinks he can handle the NBA kingpin. "I'm going to carry the fight to Charles," said the ex-champ today. "I don't know when I'll catch him, but I'm going to keep trying. Either way it's going to end in a knockout." Charles, on the other hand, will try to remain a safe distance from Louis' devastating blows, using his little 182-pound frame to wear down his heavy footed opponent. The Cincinnati Negro will pay hit-and-run. Louis will climb through the ropes as the favorite, some say at 1 to 2. Others, less optimistic, think the odds will be much lower. These factions claim the long layoff has dulled Louis' reflexes, and that his 216-pound body will be an easy target for Charle's swift, piercing blows.
