Toots to Tootsie Ticket Taximan PHILADELPHIA (F)—One of Philadelphia's friendliest customs has run afoul of the law. Every day, hundreds of bus, taxi and truck drivers wave and toot to the "girl in the window" at a downtown intersection. Pretty Gloria Heller, 19-year-old shutin who sits by the hour in her window, always waves back. Vito T. Gizzie, 31, cab driver, passed the corner yesterday about dinner time and gave his customary salute, a sweep of his arm and two shorts on the horn. A whistle blew and Gizzie was confronted by a policeman, ticket pad in hand. The cabbie explained the greeting custom, but wound up with a ticket for "improper use of the horn." Capt. John Rozansky, commander of the Philadelphia highway patrol, confirmed that his department was cracking down on noise at the busy intersection without realizing what was causing so much tooting. Gloria has been sitting in her window since she suffered a nervous collapse that made her a shut in three years ago.

The big question was how many MWD Facilities Can Solve County Water Problem Says Orange Mayor Metropolitan Water District has the water and the facilities for getting it to Orange county in quantity sufficient to solve the county's critical future water problem, it was declared today by Mayor Glenn P. Allen, of Orange, who is chairman of the city-rural committee proposing formation of the Orange County Municipal Water District. Mayor Allen was with a party of 25 Orange county men who returned late yesterday from a three-day tour of the MWD system. The proposed district, as a member of the MWD, would be entitled to Colorado river water at the MWD rate, up to approximately 51,900 acre feet per year, besides permitting purchase of surplus MWD water by the Orange County Water District at a price of $10 an acre foot, for spreading in the underground basin. The district has been paying $15 per acre foot for such water, spending nearly half a million dollars in the past two years. "It would permanently solve our desperate water problem," said Mayor Allen and President Vernon Heil of the Orange County Water District, who added that, if the proposed Municipal Water Truman, Attlee Continued from Page 1 will continue to carry out their U.N. missions of opposing aggression in Korea and "there can be no thought of appeasement or of rewarding aggression; whether in the Far East or elsewhere." 5. Agreement was reached that the military power of the U.S. and Britain "should be increased as rapidly as possible" because adequate defense forces are essential if war is to be prevented. The production capacity of other Allied nations also must be expanded. 6. They agree that when plans for creating an integrated Western European defense force are approved a supreme commander should be appointed. They expressed hope the appointment could be made "soon." This appParently meant the British view that a commander should be named at once, even before completion of the plans, had made no headway with Mr. Truman. 7. Agreement was also reached that international action for allocation of raw materials to meet defense and essential civilian needs throughout the world is necessary. The principle was adopted that while defense production "must be given the high KOREAN WAR Continued from Page 1 troops, in the far northeast, already had escaped by sea. The big question was how many others in the northeast could reach the coast. At the most critical spot the 20,000—U.S. Marines and Doughboys and a few British—were in the midst of a tank-led drive to break out of a four-sided Chinese trap south of Changjin reservoir. Reds entrenched on dominating ridges and shielded by a snowstorm from Allied air attack raked the column with heavy fire. The Leathernecks and Infantrymen moved slowly down a steep, ice-glazed and snowy mountain trail from Koto, eight miles south of the reservoir. Forward elements had covered five of the 45 long miles from Koto to the east coast escape port of Hungnam by Friday noontime. Optimists Fete Fullerton Men President Tom Yellis wielded the gavel at the Optimist meeting last night. Special guests for the evening were the Fullerton Optimists headed by President Earl Hanna. Al Garey was inducted as second vice-president of Anaheim Optimists by District Governor, Barney Koster of Santa Ana. Speaker for the evening was Robert L. Jordan of the La Paz Optimist club of Los Angeles. His subject was "The Unemployment Insurance Racket." Dr. G. Wray Crawford, Santa Ana Deputy District Governor, was also present and spoke briefly on Optimist district affairs. December 12 will be date of next Optimist meeting. It will be a combination Ladies Night and Christmas party for Optimist club boys. E. E. McHenry presented a musical skit for the group at last evening's meeting. Chambers Ask Review of Phone Add Reconsideration by the State Public Utilities commission of its refusal to review the proposed extended telephone service in Orange county will be asked by the Associated Chambers of Commerce, it was announced today. The organization stated that most Orange county organizations want the extended service established in this county. A plan or such extension has been filed by the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph price of $10 an acre foot, for spreading in the underground basin. The district has been paying $15 per acre foot for such water, spending nearly half a million dollars in the past two years. "It would permanently solve our desperate water problem," said Mayor Allen and President Vernon Heil of the Orange County Water District, who added that, if the proposed Municipal Water District is formed and annexed to MWD, Orange county would be part of an organization "big enough to go wherever it has to go to get the water it needs, regardless of what might happen to the Colorado river supply." Both expressed themselves as highly impressed by the MWD facilities which now is using only about one-fourth or less of pumping capacity as well as only 16 per cent of its water rights, thus assuring ample reserves for supplying future growth of its territory. Inspecting both Parker dam, which MWD money built (with power plant) at a cost of about $13,000,000 and Davis dam, 90 miles upstream, built by the U.S. Reclamation Bureau for $71,000,-000 (pre-war estimates were $41,-000,000). Mayor Allen and Heil commented on MWD's "sound financial management." Of the original $220,000,000 bond issue of 1928, MWD still has $40,000,000 in bonds not yet sold. It has spent the $185,000,000 in bonds and about $20,000,000 of other revenue, they reported.

Younger spoke after the Political committee heard a special report from the U.N.'s seven-member Korean commission challenging Soviet claims that the Chinese in Korea were volunteers. Meanwhile it was disclosed that British Prime Minister Attlee will visit the U.N. late today. The report said the commission had made an on-the-spot inquiry and found that all prisoners taken by Gen. Douglas MacArthur's forces were members of regular army units and "were not volunteers in any possible meaning of the term." Selim Sarpar of Turkey read the report to the Assembly's 60-nation Political committee at the opening of this morning's session. The commission estimated at least 400,000 Chinese reds are now in Korea. It said that none of the prisoners taken had the slightest idea they were fighting U.N. forces. Instead, they thought they were fighting South Koreans. Be a Careful Driver Vet Home Show Ends Sunday "Veterans' week" at the Lifetime Home tracts here and in Fullerton will have its final days this Saturday and Sunday with the continuation of showing their "veterans only" homes at both tracts, the builders reported today. The week was set aside to show the homes at Water st., between West and Palm here in Anabeim and in Fullerton on E. Chapman that have recently been reserved only for veterans, the builders said. Officers of the company also stressed that the special week was expected to clear up some of the confusion that exists concerning "no down payment" homes to veterans. "Government restrictions will prevent further non-money-down home buying in the future, but the Lifetime Homes are still available to vets on this easy contract," the company spokesman assured. The three-bedroom homes that remain unsold here and in Fullerton are the last of the concern's nearly 1000 homes—almost all of which were sold to veterans in the county...
