Fullerton Public Forum Announced
The new Fullerton Public Forum program for the first series of 1950 talks and illustrated lectures, to be presented free to the public within the next few weeks was announced yesterday by Walter Pray of Fullerton Union High school.
The programs, to be given on Thursday evenings in the high school auditorium at 7:30 p.m. as last year, will open on October 12 with motion pictures by Lt. Col. John D. Craig on the subject, "Heigh Ho Adventure." Craig is student, author, soldier an explorer, with a life time of travel behind him—on land, under sea and in the air.
The producer-adventurer was in charge of the Air Force Motion Picture Unit which flew and photographed the Bilini atom bomb tests. During the recent conflict he took part in combat photography missions of a warfare on all fronts, completing 36 combat missions.
Other programs to follow are, on Oct. 19, Arthur O'Conner's color film-talk on "Bronze Men and Black Magic," concerning New Guinea; on Oct. 26, CBS News Analyst William Winter's lecture on "The Soviet Challenge in Asia;" on Nov. 2, travel lecturer and philosopher Howard Pierce Davis, speaking on "The Implications of Total Diplomacy."

He added that she represented a $500 monthly income but that the paper had lost money under present ownership.
"Every unprofitable business transaction is not, because of that fact (of being unprofitable), subject to recission," Judge Gardner wrote in his findings. "In a great number of commercial transactions, one side profits, one side loses.
"Obviously, the loser can not always come into court and have the transaction set aside."
Judge Gardner added that "it is necessary in a case such as the one under discussion that actual fraud be proven. The burden of proof is on the plaintiff ... where inferences of fraud or fair dealing are possible, that of fair dealing must be drawn. Fraud is never presumed."
The court observed that Lee might have been too enthusiastic in his appraisal of the Orange County News. Mrs. Wright explained her high standard of living, her good car and vacation trips were financed by her earnings from the publication, Judge Gardner noted.
Judge Gardner observed also that "I frankly do not know what the profit-making ability of the paper was. Rather obviously, it was better than is reflected in Mrs. Wright's income tax returns, in order for her to maintain the standard of living she has in these days of high prices."

—within minutes after the 1:15 a.m. (EST) crash. They kept the fire from engulfing the train and aided in rescuing passengers.
Providential Escape
Nearly 50 passengers were trapped in the only car which overturned.
Twelve of the injured passengers were admitted to hospitals but are not in critical condition.
At least 10 others on the express, including one crewman, were treated and discharged. So were two of the rescuers who battered windows with their bare fists to free the injured.
Upwards of 20 doctors reached the scene within 30 minutes. They treated many persons on the spot for minor injuries.
Eleven cars of the train were cast about like jackstraws. Their all-steel construction not only kept them from catching fire but prevented a catastrophe, said an unidentified crew member. While helping the injured, he commented:
“If we had wooden cars on this train it would have been awful.”
The tank car was about midway in the 75-car freight train.
Eighteen of the freight cars were derailed, including the oil tanker, and another tanker containing what Fire Chief Lawrence Scully said “was some sort of powdered chemical.”
The two tank cars and two freight cars were consumed by the raging flames.
“It was one of the most unusual fires in my experience,” said Chief Scully.
“And it was a God’s blessing that those people escaped.
‘Our first thought was to get those people out of that overturned car. Then we put out the fire which was fed, too, by oil from the deisel engines.’
“The fact that many persons weren’t killed is certainly a tribute to the modern, all-steel cars on the passenger train.”
Ray Bloom of Erie, fireman on the express which carried 153 passengers, estimated the crack train was rolling at 70 miles an hour seconds before the crash.

the Korean war news.
Declines in the wholesale prices of such foods as eggs, cocoa, potatoes, raisins, wheat and barley, along with beef and pork, pushed the Dun & Bradstreet wholesale food price index down 11 cents in the steepest drop in more than a year. At $6.50 this week, the index was the lowest since July 25 and compared with $9.69 at the year's peak August 29.
The index represents the sum total of the wholesale cost of one pound each of 31 foods in general use. A year ago it stood 15 per cent lower at $5.65.
Large Grade A eggs tipped lower in many places this week, dropping one to eight cents a dozen in the first general downward turn in many weeks.
On produce counters, apples, snap beans, onions, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, brussel sprouts, and cauliflower were lower in most places. Cantaloupes, honeydew melons, prunes and cucumbers edged a little higher.
Most of the large store chains which roast their own coffees and pack them in paper bags boosted their prices one to four cents a pound this week. The so-called independent roasters whose brands are marketed in vacuum tins announced similar advances a week or two previously, citing higher costs for green coffee beans.
Ford Reports Strike Break
DETROIT (AP)—The Ford Motor co. reported today a break in a wildcat strike that had threatened a complete shutdown of its plants.
At midnight strikers began reporting for work at three rolling mills of Ford's big steel plant in suburban Dearborn. Production on the midnight shift was restored to 30 to 50 per cent of normal, a Ford spokesman said.
If the back-to-work movement continues today, the company said it would cancel plans for a series of layoffs that would eventually have affected 125,000 workers.
A bottleneck caused by the unauthorized stalls of trucks has led to an increase in fuel prices.
ZION LUTHERAN STARTS EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM
Tonight at 7:30 o'clock the Rev. Edwin H. Pflug, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church will begin a series of church membership lectures at the church, Emily and Chartres. The sessions will be held in the "Bungalow" with entrance on Chartres.
The course is open to everyone and will be conducted continuously till the end of June. It will present such questions and topics as Revolution or Reason; Creation or Evolution?; God; Sin; the Ten Commandments; the Person and Work of Christ; the Person and Work of the Holy Spirit; the Sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper; the Authority of the Church; and Prayer.
Comparative religions will also be discussed.
Last night, more than 30 people attended the first in a series of midweek Bible hours. Midweek Bible hour is conducted by Rev. Pflug at the church. The public is invited.
HAIFA, Israel (UP)—A Haifa firm is making over discarded American refrigerators "just like new."
The Kestenbaum Manufacturing company is overhauling 1,200 refrigerators which were obtained in the United States. In addition to rebuilding the freezing units, the company intends to manufacture refrigerators here.
At midnight strikers began reporting for work at three rolling mills of Ford's big steel plant in suburban Dearborn. Production on the midnight shift was restored to 30 to 50 per cent of normal, a Ford spokesman said.
If the back-to-work movement continues today, the company said it would cancel plans for a series of layoffs that would eventually have affected 125,000 workers.
A bottleneck caused by the unauthorized strike of fewer than 900 men in the steel plant forced the company to lay off 700 men in the fender and door departments of the pressed steel unit yesterday. It estimated the number of idle would be increased to 5000 today.
The rolling mill workers yesterday defied pleas of CIO United Auto Workers leaders to end the strike. Union officers, however, renewed their efforts to get the men back to work with appeals over the radio asking them to abide by the union's contract with Ford.
They walked out Monday in protest against a ruling which bore on premium pay. Dr. Harry Shulman, impartial umpire under Ford's contract with the UAW, ruled they were not entitled to premium pay for Saturday and Sunday work except when it is over and above a normal 40-hour work week.
SEES L. A. HOME SUBPLUS
LOS ANGELES (UP)—An official of the Los Angeles Real Estate Board predicts that this city will have a housing surplus within the next six months.

He testified before the Joint State Senate - Assembly Interim committee on Community Redevelopment.
