Associated Farmers Man Brands Reds as Criminal Conspirators “A criminal conspiracy,” manned by “criminals, atheists and undesirables, right from the beginning.” In such manner, Associated Farmers representative Jack Miller last night summed up for Anaheim Legionnaires, communism and the people who run it. Upwards of 40 post members out of 350 total were at the Legion hall to hear the Associated Farmers’ man elaborate on what he considers “our Number One subject.” Miller was disappointed with the turnout and said so. Legionnaires present did likewise. Miller briefed his audience with a nutshell history of the development of communism from its incubus in 1848 under Marx and Engel, to its present proportions. Planners OK Cafe Variance One application for variance in zoning was approved and another was denied yesterday at a meeting of the Anaheim planning commission. Charles H. Fisher and Raymond V. Jones asked for permission to build and operate a lunchroom at 142 North Lemon street. This is in a “neighborhood business zone” and lunch rooms are classified as “general business,” but the commission ruled that granting of the variance would give no special privilege not enjoyed by other property owners in that district. Hunter Encounters Monkey Business Nanty Glo, Pa., (JP)—For a while yesterday, Don Thomas was a very bewildered hunter. The 22-year-old carpenter’s apprentice went hunting in the woods. He saw a squirrel and bore down on it. The rifle cracked and a monkey fell dead at his feet. “It just naturally looked like a squirrel,” Thomas told game protectors later. “A monkey was the last thing I expected to see in these woods.” Game protectors advanced the theory that the monkey had been roaming at large since escaping from a carnival which played near Nanty Glo last summer. “I didn’t know what to think when I picked it up,” said hunter Thomas. “I hope I don’t get in trouble with the game commission.” Game protectors assured him he wouldn’t.

Des Moines Hunts Mystery Beast DES MOINES (AP)—Law enforcement officers, dogs and an airplane went on a "safari" today to hunt down an elusive black beast that is giving northwest Des Moines the jitters. Several people have reported seeing the animal in the past several weeks, and from their descriptions officials said it could be a black panther. Tracks measuring about four inches across have been found. Kenneth Sonderleiter, who operates a zoo, warned people to beware. He said panthers sometimes attack people "just for the sport of it." Deputy sheriff Max Van Rees warned residents of the area to use caution when they are out of doors. Several mothers asked yesterday whether they should let their children go to school. Deputies told them to "use your own judgment." The latest encounter with the animal was reported yesterday by T. L. (Mike) Lester. He said his dog—115-pound Tennessee boar-hunting hound—fought with the beast while Lester was coon hunting. Lester said he approached within 30 feet before scaring the animal away. He described it as "a black, shiny animal with a long tail." He added that it was "larger than the dog." The dog is four feet long and 28 inches high. Though badly clawed, the dog will recover, Lester said. Charles H. Fisher and Raymond V. Jones asked for permission to build and operate a lunchroom at 142 North Lemon street. This is in a "neighborhood business zone" and lunch rooms are classified as "general business," but the commission ruled that granting of the variance would give no special privilege not enjoyed by other property owners in that district. Denied was the application of Walter and Hazel Bailey who asked to use an apartment building at 204 North Clementine street for professional business offices. This area is zoned as a "multiple family zone." Local R-M Plant Gets First Order Rinshed-Mason's new Anaheim plant will start to work on orders calling for over 15,000 gallons of auto finishing materials, according to word received today by local general manager E. F. Hawkins. The finishing materials are due for Los Angeles auto manufacturers. ICC Orders Reduction of 12 Per Cent In Railroad Automobile Shipping Rate WASHINGTON (AP)—The Interstate Commerce Commission today ordered an average 12 percent reduction in railroad freight rates on new automobiles. Officials estimated the cut, dated to become effective Feb. 20, will involve savings of $10 and up for new car purchases. The retail price of new automobiles traditionally includes the rail transportation charge from the manufacturer's headquarters factory to the home city of the purchaser, regardless of how delivery is made between these points. Thus the revision in the basic rail rate will be reflected in the local sales tag, in amounts varying according to location and the weight of the car. The ICC acted on the basic rate structure in what was described as an effort toward equalizing competition among those manufacturers handling their product principally out of the factory city and those maintaining assembly plants at various points over the country. Chrysler, Nash, Packard, Studebaker and Willys-Overland complained to the commission three years ago that the railroad rate structure tended to give a competitive advantage to General Motors and Ford because these two had established assembly plants, away from their home factories, in virtually all sections of the nation. The complaining companies maintain factories and most of their distribution at Detroit, Evansville, Ind.; Los Angeles, Kenosha, Wis.; South Bend, Ind., and Toledo, Ohio.

SEOUL (AP) — Tank-supported U.S. infantrymen walked into deserted Hyesanjin on the Manchurian border today. Not a shot was fired. Only the narrow, ice-coated Yalu river lay between them and red Chinese territory. The troops—of the 17th Regimental combat team—were the first Americans to reach the Manchurian boundary. U.S. War planest swooped low over the smouldering, bomb-wrecked town as weary infantrymen slogged the last two miles through snow. The only humans around were 15 villagers, garbed in black. They stood outside the town and bowed low as the unsmilling Americans marched by. Hyesanjin itself was deserted. Buildings that had survived the bombing were boarded up. Commanding generals were jubilant.

She also was injured slightly about the ribs, according to the specialist who examined her. He regarded the lung puncture as minor and said it would heal without surgery. The collision in which Dorothy was hurt occurred during a rainstorm while a companion, Robert E. Harris of Vallejo, was driving her home from a fraternity dance. Both are students at the University of California college of agriculture at Davis. The Hazris car ran into the back end of a truck which had stopped to let a train pass. Harris, who was uninjured, said the rain hindered his vision. Dorothy is the second of Warren's daughters to be hospitalized this month. Nina, 17, developed polio, which affected her legs, on Nov. 7.

In Reno the Truckee river rioted Red China Russ Stooge Says Tsiang LAKE SUCCESS (AP)—Nationalist China's T. F. Tsiang told the United Nations today 45,000 Soviet agents completely dominate the political, economic and cultural life of communist China. Events of the past 12 months, Tsiang said, have fully proved that the Peiping regime is the stooge and tool of Moscow. He spoke before the General Assembly's 60-nation political committee. Tsiang said Russia has completely ignored the assembly's 1949 appeal to all nations to refrain from interfering in the internal affairs of China. He blamed Russia for the intervention of communist China in the Korea war and said Russian imperialism was responsible for most of Asia's unrest. Thousands of more flood victims in northern California streamed for higher ground today as gorged rivers and creeks pushed out of their banks. It was the worst flood to hit northern and central California in a generation. In western Nevada, too, the water took an enormous toll. In Reno the Truckee river rioted through the city's streets, flooding buildings with mud and debris and causing uncountable loss. Around 8000 persons began swarming into Marysville, Calif., this morning as the Yuba river swept out in its worst flood of record. About half of these refugees were from the Linda district, and the rest were from Olivehurst, both unincorporated areas in the Marysville area. Earlier, the nearby town of Hammonton had been ordered evacuated. The sheriff's office at Marysville said no one was in immediate danger as warnings had been issued in time. But property loss was expected to be tremendous. There was one note of hopefulness—U. S. Engineers said they believed that the worst of the floods had passed in California. But the Weather Bureau said that while the skies begin to clear around San Francisco and other northern coastal counties, a band of rain clouds was moving slowly inland.
