MELLEN Assistant Advertising Manager MARY ROULAND Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager National Business Women's Week . . . "Measure up for full partnership" is the theme of the National Business Women's Week now being observed by the Business and Professional Women's clubs throughout the country. The BPW is commemorating the week by reminding women that they must "measure up" in every capacity—in the home, in society, in the community, and in the world. That is a good reminder not only for the ladies but for all of us. A little serious thought on how we are measuring up might be a good habit to get in to. It's a sure-fire idea for making the most of the world. So, the Anaheim Gazette wants to extend sincere congratulations to Mrs. Marguerite Coons, president of the Anaheim BPW, and to the fine and useful citizens who make up this spirited organization. They are a credit to the city. Anaheim is a better place to live because of the interest of the BPW in civic affairs and because of their loyalty to Anaheim. Letter Writing Week . . . We got to thinking over the news that this (also) is National Letter Writing week. Louis Hoskins, Anaheim's very fine postmaster, has been working hard to create more interest in the postoffice. He proceeds on the very friend-tances." With the greatly increased number of men serving overseas in the armed forces this Christmas it is well that the matter of gifts for them be considered even now. The postoffice stated that mail for men Washington — the Taxpayers don't know it, but they pay for the honeymoon of Congressman's daughter. She Mrs. Jules De Porre, daughter Democrat Congressman Louis baut of Grosse Pointe Park, Ms. Carolyn was the last in a row of daughters who worked as Congressman Rabaut's secretary. She quit to get married shortly after Easter, and became Mrs. Jules De Porre on July 8. Spite this, she has continued to draw $643.33 a month. While the Congressman daughter draws her salary, his job is taken by Marion B. Lack who is paid $331.71 per month by the House Appropriation committee. Very convenient—the committee "loaned" her Rabaut to handle "committees business." She is not on regular pay roll. When queried by this column Rabaut explained that his daughter never quit working for him but just shifted to his Detroit office. Actually, this explanation doesn't hold up. For the Congressman didn't open an office in Detroit until Congress recessed last week of September. Furthermore, when the Congressman took a trip to Detroit, his office in Washington complain that scribbles letters in longhand sends them back to Washington to be typed, thus making a rerery as to what his newly rered daughter is supposed to doing for him in his Detroit office. A further check by this column Detroit indicates that Mrs. Jules De Porre hasn't been working for father as his Congressional secretary at all. Mrs. De Porre also told column that she returned to where between Easter and her 8 wedding day, but a check at House office building revealed Letter Writing Week . . . We got to thinking over the news that this (also) is National Letter Writing week. Louis Hoskins, Anaheim’s very fine postmaster, has been working hard to create more interest in the postoffice. He proceeds on the very friendly thought that: “Postmen and postal people, perhaps more than most who do hard work, get satisfaction from their labors. They know that letters are important—that they span great distances and bring people together. And, that they bring happiness to our land.” Well, that proves what many people have already known: Louis and his staff not only have a heart, but they feel that every letter is “the most important letter in the world” either to the fellow who sends it or the one who receives it. No wonder they say they “get satisfaction from their labors.” Well, the mails “span great distances.” With the greatly increased number of men serving overseas in the armed forces this Christmas it is well that the matter of gifts for them be considered even now. The postoffice stated that mail for men in Korea, Japan and the Pacific islands should be sent not later than November 1. If a serviceman is located in a remote place, mailing should be made now. Parcels generally should not weigh more than 70 pounds although it is well to check on weight limitations with the postoffice and great care should be exercised in addressing with full name, rank, serial number, branch of service, organization and APO and postoffice number, trying to leave ample space for changes of address which in many cases will have to be put on. Better get busy now if you want your gifts to arrive by Christmas. United Nations Week . . . While we are at it we might as well talk a little bit about another “week” being observed this week. It is United Nations Week. The observance of United Nations Week could have hardly come at a more appropriate time in view of the UN success in Korea. Probably the greatest hope for the future realization of the original aims of this world organization lies in the trend which now finds the General Assembly gaining more and more influence in welding major decisions. Through the use of the veto in the Security Council, the Russians have frequently succeeded in preventing decisions on vital world issues. But in the General Assembly now meeting in New York the veto does not apply and here we find the fuller expression of the desire of free nations. And here too we find the Russian blockade being completely by-passed in the interest of international justice. In some respects the dream of world peace conceived in San Francisco five years ago now seems to have greater possibilities of realization than at any time since the UN Charter was signed. The free world must go on; and, it will go on with or without Russia. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of the Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago Rev. Robert Strong left a pumpkin at the Co-operative store in Westminster, weighing 132 pounds, with instructions that when anybody brought in a larger one regulation of our municipal affairs is seriously agitating the minds of our leading men, and we hope that ere long some means will be devised and carried into execution whereby these much-sends them back to Washington to be typed, thus making a rarity as to what his newly raised daughter is supposed to doing for him in his Detroit office. A further check by this column Detroit indicates that Mrs. Perre hasn’t been working for father as his Congressional secretary at all. Mrs. De Porre also told a column that she returned to her home between Easter and her 8 wedding day, but a check at House office building revealed was not true. The real truth is that Congrats man Rakaut gave his daughter $643.33-per-month wedding—at the laxpayers’ expense. Admirals' Propaganda The admirals' propaganda fit. "Operation 23," was supposed to have been abolished after B-36 feud of last fall. It was cause of a bitter battle between the Air Force and the Navy, the result that forthright Secretary of the Navy Matthews persisted the naval officers in charge. However, it now develops the ghost of "Operation 23" still haunting the Air Force. “Panoramic view from Institution Point” and “From the Summit of Mount Lowe” with William Peak and San Bernardino Mountains in the background. The section includes 12 aquarclings of Yosemite scenes. Charley Federman leaves few days for San Francisco to operate with A. M. Williams development work on the rail at that point. Williams has at work at Twenty-Nine for a year, but discontinued operations in the summer on account of heat and scarcity of meats. Morgan will be able about three weeks. Frank Gates leaves on Saturday for Santa Cruz as a delegate to the local court of IOOF to Grand Court which holds its annual meeting in that city month. He will be absent at or two. 25 Years Ago The production of chili pimientos for canning and oo supply the United States kets largely centers in C 75 Years Ago Rev. Robert Strong left a pumpkin at the Co-operative store in Westminster, weighing 132 pounds, with instructions that when anybody brought in a larger one he should leave it and take the smaller one away. On Saturday Mr. Teel saw this little squash and went him 60 pounds better, bringing one weighing 190 pounds, Who next? We noticed that there was enough money in the Farmers and Merchants bank yesterday to make us perfectly at case regarding our deposits in that institution. The material for the bridge across the Santa Ana is being forward as fast as possible and the road will be completed across the river before winter. C. E. Miles who was elected county recorder at the last election has had a legacy of $70,000 left him by a deceased relative in England. Wine making at Cucamonga is reported as progressing rapidly. There is a good grape crop there this year. The subject of effecting some kind of an organization in Anaheim whereby we can make some improvements in our streets and devise some means for the better regulation of our municipal affairs is seriously agitating the minds of our leading men, and we hope that ere long some means will be devised and carried into execution whereby these much-needed improvements may be made. J. W. Gwin has rented 800 acres of the Martin and Miles tract. He intends putting in barley. The survey of the town site near Costa Station was completed yesterday. It is in the exact center of the valley. It is five and one-half miles from Anaheim, six miles from Artesia and six miles from Westminster. Con Howe runs an express wagon from Westminster to Anaheim three times a week. 50 Years Ago Prof. Carl Zeus has on exhibition at the Back's block, upstairs, a collection of oil paintings which are masterpieces of art. Four of the largest paintings are to be shipped next week to Munich, to be re-produced in facsimile aquarel-garvure as a souvenir portfolio of California scenery. They are, "In the Forest of San Bernardino Mountains," "Sphinx Rock," "Grayback on San Jacinto Mountain" in the background, Frank Gates leaves on Saturday for Santa Cruz as a delegate to the local court of IOOF the Grand Court which holds its annual meeting in that city month. He will be absent a or two. 25 Years Ago The production of chili pimientos for canning and owing to supply the United States kets largely centers in O county, around Garden Grove drying of chilies was started 1905 by J. A. Knapp, known "Chili King" of Garden Grove. He built the first of the two artificial dry houses now in eral use in this district. In houses the chilies are dried natural gas then put in hughes to be shipped. The prevailing this year is about 15 cent pound, an average return per acre. The 1925 croppected to return growers at $380,000 gross. Mrs. F. A. Yungbluth remained at a large bridge park Wednesday last at her home W. Broadway. A delicious eon was served at 1 o'clock which the afternoon was spent bridge. The first prize was by Mrs. Ed Smith, the second Mrs. D. A. Mullinix and the solation by Mrs. Davis of B. First legal steps toward calling of an election on the posed $1,200,000 Newport development bonds were when the county supervisors their regular meeting passed formal election proclamation ting the election date for A WASHINGTON — the Taxpayer don't know it, but they are for the honeymoon of aissman's daughter. She is rules De Porre, daughter ofocrat Congressman Louis Ra-rl Grosse Pointe Park, Mich. Lyn was the last in a line fighters who worked as Conan Rebaut's secretary. But it to get married shortly Easter, and became Mrs. De Porre on July 8. De his, she has continued to $643.33 a month. While the Congressman's letter draws her salary, her taken by Marion B. Lacey, is paid $331.71 per month House Appropriations committee. Very conveniently, committee "loaned" her to handle "committee sets." She is not on his pay roll. In queried by this column, it explained that his daughter quit working for him, shifted to his Detroit office actually, this explanation hold up. For the Congress didn't open an office in Detroit until Congress recessed the week of September. Further when the Congressman takes to Detroit, his office help washington complain that he les letters in longhand and them back to Washington typed, thus making a mys- as to what his newly mar-laughter is supposed to be for him in his Detroit office. Other check by this column indicates that Mrs. De hasn't been working for her as his Congressional secret all. De Porre also told this that she returned to work between Easter and her July ending day, but a check at the office building revealed this TOO ROUGH FOR THIS LEAGUE U.N. vs N.KOREA MORRIS some old anti-air force stories are being leaked to the press. In fact, Navy propagandists, believe it or not, are spreading the grower is going to get a in his pocket. If we want to give it Mr. Wilcox will have some old anti-air force stories are being leaked to the press. In fact, Navy propagandists believe it or not, are spreading the same identical stories as the communists about the Air Force; namely, that U.S. airplanes have been killing North Korean women and children. Actually, B-29 raids in Korea have been so accurate that they demolished the Woosang armament plants without even touching the rows of workers' houses alongside. Some admirals are also coming out into the open with the same views that got them into trouble over unification. Rear Adm. Stuart Ingersoll, for instance, harangued a recent conference of American mayors on the Navy's success in Korea, as if the Air Force did not exist. "One of the main lessons of the Korean war," declared Admiral Ingersoll, "was the great value of inherent mobility of the Navy forces." The admiral pointed out that the Navy had sailed up and down the Korean coast bombarding communist positions, forgetting to mention that there was no enemy air force to interfere with the Navy. Army Fort President Truman stopped right into the middle of a row between two Republican Senators recently when he scribbed his signature on a bill transferring Fort Des Moines to the state of Iowa. GOP Sen. Wayne Morse of Oregon had scornfully dubbed the bill "Fort Des Moines Steal," but GOP Sen. Bourke Hickenlooper needed the bill to help his reelection fight, and, thought Hickenlooper is a bitter foe of the administration, while Morse is a personal friend of Truman's, the president sided with his GOP enemy against his GOP friend. Morse opposed the bill on the ground that it was a pure political grab. "There are too many members of Congress making a political grab bag of the reservoirs of surplus property," the Oregon Senator maintained. "The bill before us reeks with Iowa politics." "Where the carecases lie." Colony Quips Down in Florida some of the oranges look like our green lemons when picked. Inside they are as good as they ever will be. So the fresh fruit men down there add some color. Rouge the fruit up a bit, you know. This makes it have more eye appeal and what is much more important the colored fruit commands a greater price. Back in June our valentias (Orange county) had a beautiful orange color. The inside color and taste was not as good as it would be later but the fruit looked beautiful. Later in the year the inside of the orange was deep orange in color. But the outside, especially the stem end, had a distinct green color. So we were used with a paradox. Our valentias had good color early out where soul inside later in the year they were grown on the outside, deep orange and sweet on the inside. Now if we poison them with a little red wax in late season we would only show want was inside to better advantage. So why not? Some people say that this color added deal will increase the selling price around 75 cents a box at a cost of two or three cents to the grower. We have wondered a long time about that one. (Fully an hour) No answer appears seen at any of our three readers know we wish they would write in and us. From a merchandising standpoint alone why have we in California missed trying this out? We have heard the old wheeze about color knocking down the price and the public being afraid of artificial color. But that stuff was for the "gay" '90s and we must progress—even in the orange business. We are in favor of anything grower is going to get at in his pocket. If we want to give it Mr. Wilcox will have Washington and stop on back to see Mr. Fox Maid for another "cheat contract. Maybe we he formia could sell him centrate so he would cease of those new plants de. But he might be a little account of the lemon couple of weeks ago that dropped the price of ice $30 a ton right out of a Minute Maid had box of lemon concentrate, storage, and what no they thought when their fruit was artificially ripe. That same little act told, also cost one dollar concerns about $20 g. When a price is reduced hurts both the buyer seller then where is th? That sort of thing Exchange growers. Telling people about end, she had was a do you get it? We wonder if Mr. P understand this? PITCHING HORSESHOE by Billy Rose Among the doodads is an old piece of starch who come to my office one about it. My roughout no answer is: that bit of string been to it, my business address instead of Da Locker. But let me crank th 44 years and give it my Aunt Frieda woul "in sequins." ... 25 Years Ago The production of chilies and dentos for canning and drying supply the United States marketing largely centers in Orange city, around Garden Grove. The king of chilies was started in 1859 by J. A. Knapp, known as the Gill King" of Garden Grove. Built the first of the unique official dry houses now in genuse in this district. In these cases the chilies are dried by rural gas then put in huge bags be shipped. The prevailing price this year is about 15 cents per pound, an average return of $225 acre. The 1925 crop is exeted to return growers around 30,000 gross. Mrs. F. A. Yungbluth entered at a large bridge party on nuesday last at her home on Broadway. A delicious lunchwas served at 1 o'clock, after which the afternoon was spent at bridge. The first prize was won by Mrs. Ed Smith, the second by D. D. A. Mullinix and the contion by Mrs. Davis of Brea.

Morse opposed the bill on the ground that it was a pure political grab. “There are too many members of Congress making a political grab bag of the reservoirs of surplus property,” the Oregon Senator maintained. “The bill before us reeks with Iowa politics.” “Where the carcasses lie.” commented Sen. Paul Douglas of Illinois, sadly, “there the vultures love to feed.” Morse even carried his opposition to the point of writing Secretary of the Army Pace: “The time to stop a raid on the federal treasury of giveaway camp sites is right now.” Taxpayer Pays And to President Truman, he wrote: ‘For two years certain politicians from Iowa have tried to put through the Hickenlooper bill. The fact is, Mr. President, the whole thing smells. I think you should veto it from the healthy political effect it would have upon those members of Congress who seem to think that our supplies of surplus property should be used as a grab bag.’ Mr. Truman, however, turned a deaf ear on his GOP friend, and signed the bill that helped his GOP enemy. Note—A prominent Iowa banker, Van Vechten Shaffer, president of the Guaranty Bank and Trust of Des Moines, wrote Hickenlooper regarding the Fort Des Moines bill: “Haven't you learned that nothing is for free? If the government of the United States through the Senate is fool enough to give us Fort Des Moines, what are they giving Washington and Oregon, Arkansas and Florida? And if you are not preventing such ridiculous handouts, you ought to be. This kind of monkey business does not make votes even in an election year, and we are not stupid enough in Iowa to believe we don't pay one way or another for the handouts.” Co. K. Guardsmen CAPTAIN GUS LUZANIA LT. RALPH COMSTOCK hand shook so violently that the fish looked alive. Before he could get wise to the deception, however, one of the kids grabbed the mackerel out of his hand and hunked its head off with a juckknife. Crazy Moe caused us for five minutes—and it wasn't because we wanted to steal and mount the fish, he just wanted to throw the poor tang back. There was another day when this same Terry decided it was time I learned how to swim, and when I tried to ward him off with the why mincees of a seven-year-old he began calling in "sissy" and "you a belly." Many realizing there was no way to lodge the drinking, I stripped down to my shorts. Terry and another kid grabbed hold of me, gave me a couple of hammock swings and pitched me into the river. A landed ker-splash between a to do more than keep me afloat, but it gave Terry a chance to dive in and pull me over to the ladder. After I had recovered breath and bravedo, I asked Crazy Moe to let me have his fishing time for a keepsake, and when he demanded I bribed it away from him with what was an important piece of money in those days—a new Liberty Head nickel. Today, many decades and chins later, the piece or string occupies a prominent place among the memories on my desk—some of a minute reminder of the time when my life hung by a hair. And my favorite inmate who, or course, knows this story says it explains why I marveled her. “You Wanted a Swimmer in the family,” says Eleanor, “because the next time they throw you in, there may not be a Crazy Moe hanging around.” grower is going to get any money in his pocket. If we want to give it away then Mr. Wilcox will have to run Washington and stop on the way back to see Mr. Fox of Minute Maid for another "cheaper fruit" contract. Maybe we here in California could sell him enough concentrate so he would close up all of those new plants down there. But he might be a little mad on account of the lemon deal. A couple of weeks ago the Exchange dropped the price of lemons about $30 a ton right out of a clear sky. Minute Maid had bought a lot of lemon concentrate, had it in storage, and what do you suppose they thought when the price of fruit was arbitrarily reduced. That same little act, we were told, also cost one of our local concerns about $20 grand. When a price is reduced and it hurts both the buyer and the seller then where is the logic? That sort of thing hurts the Exchange growers. Telling people about it hurts no one. The hate was a ready call do you get it? We wonder if Mr. Prizer would understand this? PITCHING HORSESHOES by Billy Rose Among the doodads on my desk is an old piece of string wrapped around a wooden spool, and people who come to my office often quip me about it. My rough, ready and untouched answer is: "In total that bit of string because, thanks to it, my business address is Sixth Ave. instead of Davy Jones's Locker." But let me crank the reel back 44 years and give it to you—as my Aunt Frieda would put it in sequins.".... There was another day when this same Kerry accident at Welcome I learned how to swim, and when I tried to ward him off with the way unsecured, a seven-year-old he began calling in messy" and "you a petty" remarking there was no way to lodge the drinking, I stripped down to my shorts. Perry and another kid grabbed hold of me, gave me a couple of hammock swings and pitched me into the river. I landed ker-splash between a grapefruit rind and a floating bottle, and water began rushing into me from every opening. As I was going down for the second time I somehow got tangled up in a bit of string, and when my head broke water I saw Orazy Moe standing on the dock hauling in his second fish—me, and I was darned near as dead as the first one.
