MELLEN Assistant Advertising Manager MARY ROULAND Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager The Acheson dilemma... At a most critical moment, this country finds itself in one of the strangest situations in its history. Its Secretary of State, Dean Acheson, has been discredited by a large part of Congress, the Republicans. But at this instant he is in Europe, trying to plan with this country's Western Allies for a defense against Russia. For them to take a spirited stand against Russia those Allies must feel this country stands solidly behind the plans being made. Talking with Acheson, they must wonder: how can they be sure Congress will back up any thought on what may lie ahead: 1. That Acheson may resign when he comes back, thus letting Mr. Truman appoint another secretary more acceptable to the Republicans, since Mr. Truman needs Republican backing on major foreign policy moves in this crisis period. 2. That Mr. Truman may get his dander up to such a point that he won't let Acheson go at all. But if Acheson doesn't go, then Washington is going to see some of its most embarrassing situations in years. This is why: Acheson has to deal a lot with But at this instant he is in Europe, trying to plan with this country's Western Allies for a defense against Russia. For them to take a spirited stand against Russia, those Allies must feel this country stands solidly behind the plans being made. Talking with Acheson, they must wonder: how can they be sure Congress will back up anything he says? Acheson flew to Brussels Sunday to talk over the plans with the members of the Atlantic Pact. On Friday, while he was preparing for the trip, the Republicans in Congress pulled the rug from under him by overwhelmingly voting no confidence in him. (The Republicans had started to do this about a week ago but Governor Dewey of New York, titular head of the party, stopped them cold for a few days by telling them this was no time for a move like that. (The Republicans apparently thought this one over and then decided to go ahead, ignoring Dewey.) This country's Atlantic Pact partners have been dawdling along with their defenses. Acheson is supposed to spur them into action and get things going, in the belief there's no time to lose. Before Acheson boarded his plane Sunday, President Truman issued a statement which said he had "complete confidence" in Acheson. He has stood solidly behind Acheson, and still is backing him, so far as is known. (The no confidence vote was only the climax to many months of Republican attacks on Acheson. But for that matter, the Democrats, or rather most of them, haven't defended him very strongly and some not at all.) There seem to be two schools of Republicans, since Mr. Trump needs Republican backing on major foreign policy moves in this crisis period. 2. That Mr. Truman may get his dander up to such a point that he won't let Acheson go at all. But if Acheson doesn't go, then Washington is going to see some of its most embarrassing situations in years. This is why: Acheson has to deal a lot with Congress, face to face, by trotting up to the Capitol to explain to Congressional committees why his State Department has done thus and so or what the government's policy is on this or that. And Republicans sit on all those committees, always just slightly outnumbered by the Democrats who have a majority on each committee because they have a majority in Congress. So, if he remains, Acheson will have to explain his reasons and plans across a table to Republicans who already have said they lack confidence in him. And it seems unlikely, no matter what Acheson does from now on, that the Republicans can ever reverse their stand and pat him on the back. It may be supposed that if Mr. Truman tries to pacify the Republicans, whose backing he needs in foreign affairs, and lets Acheson go, that the Republicans then will have an obligation to back up Acheson's successor. Not necessarily so. True, the Senate has to approve a Secretary of State. But this is merely an expression of confidence that a man ought to be able to do a good job. The Republicans will have to take part in that vote. But any time thereafter they're free to tee off on him if they don't like the job he does. Acheson himself had to get Senate approval when he took office 23 months ago. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of the Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago signed a petition to Goodall, Nel- WASHINGTON—It looks as if the cost of certain key food items isn't going to be controlled very soon, after all. Price Administrator Mike di Salle who came to Washington prepared to do a job for the housewife got a rude shock when he read the price-control law thoroughly. For the farm lobby had neatly inserted certain exceptions to price control, and one of them is grain. In brief, di Salle has no power whatsoever to control the price of grain or any food made from grain. So di Salle will have to go back to Congress in January and get the law rewritten. Aside from this the new price czar has decided that he will not try to control a whole variety of prices, but will stick chiefly to a few cost-of-living items plus basic metals and war production raw materials. Note—di Salle arrived in Washington from Toledo, Ohio, to find he had no telephone, no staff, and no full legal power to stop price rises. All he had was a heap of angry letters from housewives. At first he was tempted to buy a return ticket to Toledo, but he has been getting to work at 6 a.m., going to bed after midnight, and is gradually working order out of chaos. Russian War Plans Outguessing the Kremlin is ex- ranch in La Habra valley this week. Sufficient funds have been paid in to put down the first well and a favorable place for drilling has been secured. Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Rimpau will celebrate their golden wedding anniversary on Sunday. A family reunion will take place and a joyous time is looked forward to. Dr. J. S. Gardiner and family departed today for Los Angeles to reside. The doctor has lived in Anaheim with his family for 31 years coming here in 1869 from Tennessee. Their many friends will regret to note their departure. 25 Years Ago Emil B. Dreyfus of San Fran- IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of the Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago Bohn, discouraged with the poor sale of crawfish (we call them lobsters now.)—Ed.), allowed his horse to run away, distributing the crawfish at will, and after an untimely collision with a telegraph pole on Los Angeles street was captured by a palsano, who demanded five dollars for his return to Bohn. After a boisterous altercation Bohn left the horse in the possession of the capturer, and threatened to commence suit for the same in court today. Operations have already been commenced on the new beer garden near the depot. The bar-room is almost finished and work will begin on the bowling alley next week. Deputy sheriff Mitchell is on another raid against the squatters on the Lomas de Santiago. The trial will take place on January 1 when a special term of court will be held for that purpose. A specimen lump of coal, weighing about 60 pounds, was brought in from the Confidence mine yesterday. It is on exhibition at the stable of Gaddy & Lewis. All the merchants of Los Angeles with but two exceptions have signed a petition to Goodall, Nelson & Perkins requesting them to have all their steamers stop at Santa Monica. Mr. Pete Richards received a letter yesterday from Dan Moody, who is doubtless remembered by many of our citizens. He is keeping a saloon in Gonzales, Monterey county. The Orange Presbyterian church will give an entertainment at the school house in Orange, on New Year's eve. The affair is in the hands of a committee of ladies who are working to make a success of the affair. 50 Years Ago Anaheim Council F.A.A. elected the following officers on last Thursday evening for the ensuing year: Dr. G. S. Eddy, past president; J. A. Eymann, president; Mrs. M. Mickle, vice-president; Frank S. Gates, secretary; Mrs. Clara Bittner, guide; Mrs. E. Grimshaw, chaplain; Mrs. E. Seale, observer; Mrs. H. Backs, sentry; L. E. Miller, trustee; Miss L. Schumacher, pianist; Miss Fanny Seale, captain of team. Walter Eymann and Richard Schellens will begin drilling a well on their lease on the Hole and a joyous time is looked forward to. Dr. J. S. Gardiner and family departed today for Los Angeles to reside. The doctor has lived in Anaheim with his family for 31 years coming here in 1869 from Tennessee. Their many friends will regret to note their departure. 25 Years Ago Emil B. Dreyfus of San Francisco was in town last week paying a visit to his property interests here. He owns the building at the southwest corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, where the S.Q.R. Store is located and has a number of applications for a leasehold on the premises, when the store moves to its new location a block west, at the corner of Center and Lemon. Mr. Dreyfus and his family have just returned from a tour of Europe and this is his first trip to Anaheim since early in the present year. Mr. and Mrs. James J. Halpin were in town from Los Angeles on Sunday visiting former friends and neighbors. Mrs. Halpin is the former Miss Fannie Rowe and has many friends in Anaheim where she made her home for many years. National Thrift week, Jan. 17-23, will be observed by the local YMCA. The Thrift promotion committee held a meeting at Elks clubhouse Tuesday evening to arrange plans. The committee is composed of A. B. McCord, H.W. Adams, F. A. Yungbluth, J. A. Clayes, H. H. Benjamin, E.E.Smith, E.A.Hargrove, Forrest Fowler, Rev.Schmelzer, Tom McFadden and M.A.Gauer. Christmas Began 'No Room at the Joseph also left the city of Nazareth to go to Judah, to the city of David, called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David: to be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, who was great with child.

No. 2 will be to lure the United States into committing men and resources in a big war in Asia. In this case Russia would throw enough armament into the battle to aid local communists to hold down American strength. No. 3. While we were tied up in Asia, Russian armies would drive across Western Europe. The latter move is not expected this year, however. The Kremlin wants to entrap us in other areas first. A summary of Soviet war strategy can be paraphrased as follows: "Russian policy is to expand its borders as far as the indifference or timidity of its neighbors allow, and to hold or draw back when met by determined resistance, and wait for a new chance to spring at its victims." Next probable Soviet victim will be French Indo-China, already torn with communist revolt. Siam, Burma and Malaya would probably follow. Another weak spot which may fall to Russia without a battle is Iran. Already, Soviet pressure has caused Iran to ban rebroadcasts of the Voice of America and the British Broadcasting company on local radio stations. Meanwhile, a secret Russian station has been calling KURD tribes to revolt. Truman and MacArthur President Truman came into a cabinet meeting some time ago carrying a copy of The New Republic, the liberal weekly magazine. During the cabinet session, Secretary of Defense Marshall complained about the difficulty of getting cooperation from General MacArthur. He indicated that MacArthur was a law unto himself. Truman listened, finally held up a copy of The New Republic. "This is the way to handle that bird," he said. Cabinet members, after the meeting, immediately sent for copies of the magazine. It contained an article by former Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes criticizing MacArthur for violating directives from Washington. The atmosphere was tense and electrifying. Hardly anyone dared speak to other guests. Branch Rickey of the Pittsburgh Pirates, the Cincinnati Reds' Warren Giles and Bill Wrigley of the Chicago Cubs carried on whispered conversations. Ford Frick, president of the National League, during the banquet, whispered to William Harridge, president of the American League: "What an unusual feeling. It's ghostlike." "Not one man here is enjoying his food," Harridge whispered back. "Mine is stuck right here." He pointed to his throat. As the club owners departed after the banquet, Chandler shook hands with them. His smile was forced. Each wished him well—perhaps in his next job. Oblong Views FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD By WALDO HUNTER (The Poor Man's Drew Pearson) PERHAPS I AM completely out of line with things, but from what I read and gather from conversations with other taxpayers, the country right now is gripped with a real apathy toward the prospect of waging another all-out war. President Truman's widely-healed speech of last Friday night, coming as it did after his dramatic meetings with Prime Minister Attlee should have whipped the country into a patriotic fervor. But it didn't. In spite of his speech, people still go into saloons and order Moscow Mules. (A drink). One could not help contrasting the watery personalities of Truman and Attlee to that vivid and magnetic Roosevelt-Churchill team. When FDR and Winnie got together for 'high level' talks in the face of great world crises the At Christmas time, we want to look very far beyond own hearths, regardless of impends. Let not the world mistake that we are "pushover however.

He owns the building at west corner of Center Angeles streets, where Store is located and number of applications for on the premises, when moves to its new location west, at the corner of Lemon. Mr. Dreyfus finally have just returned to Europe and this is trip to Anaheim since the present year. Mrs. James J. Halpinown from Los Angeles visiting former friends Mrs. Halpin is the Ms Fannie Rowe and has leads in Anaheim where her home for many Thrift week, Jan. 17-observed by the local Thrift promotion held a meeting at Elks Tuesday evening to aris. The committee is of A. B. McCord, H. W. A. Yungbluth, J. A. H. Benjamin, E. E. A. Hargrove, Forrest w. Schmelzer, Tom McD. M. A. Gauer. Senate colleagues always knew Baseball Commissioner A. B. (Happy) Chandler as one of the happiest men in Congress when he served as Senator from Kentucky. But his smile turned to tears at his annual banquet for major league club owners in Tampa. Happy had just been informed by his guests that his $65,000-a-year contract would not be renewed. No one was expected to show up for the banquet that followed, but Chandler went through with it nonetheless. News reports that the party "proceeded without a hitch" were wrong. It started at 8:00 p.m.-two hours late. All but New York Giants' Horace Stoneman and St. Louis Cards' Fred Saigh came. Saigh is reported to be the big gun behind Chandler's ouster. The unhappy host refused to take his customary seat at the head table but sat by himself with his back to his guests. Several times he was forced to leave the room to wipe his eyes. Chandler, sitting alone, said he was sitting where he felt he belonged. Once he sent out for a box of cigars and presented them to Joe Cronin of Boston as an ironic fervor. But it HUNTER didn't. In spite of his speech, people still go into saloons and order Moscow Mules.. (A drink). One could not help contrasting the watery personalities of Truman and Attlee to that vivid and magnetic Roosevelt-Churchill team. When FDR and Winnie got together for "high level" talks in the face of great world crises the masses didn't know what went on or what was being planned, but they enjoyed a huge and abiding assurance that the outcome of these meetings would be of great cheer to the peoples of the two great nations involved and that the joint decisions of the two leaders would play merry hell in the camp of the common enemy. But did YOU get any sense of real leadership from the Truman-Attlee conferences? In fairness to our President and to Mr. Attlee, however, we must consider that at the moment there is no news of torpedoings of helpless merchant and passenger ships on the high seas; no bombings of European or Asiatic cities, no electrifying Pearl Harbors. Under these conditions it is difficult for the two heads of state to lather their peoples into a war-like attitude, even if they were equipped oratorically to do so. (Which they are not. The enemy has so far been cunning enough not to rouse the American people to that old war spirit by an overt act against them personally. Until such a blow falls, it is our nature to conduct "business as usual" and no manner of speeches and dire warnings will arouse us. Dear Santa Claus: Will you please bring me toys for Xmas. I have been a girl for my mother. I would like a real pretty doll and a Todd doll and table and chairs for dishes and a doll crib and blanket and pillow and a new dress me and shoes two.

The list includes nearly essential occupational fields. case America launches a full-s mobilization of manpower; fields either would need numbers of new workers or additional trained personnel just maintain effective employm levels. Some time ago, in answer to a reader's query, I suggested ways in which a newcomer might get acquainted in Anaheim. I described the opportunities in church attendance, P-TA groups and various charitaole organizations, but it has been brought to my attention that I overlooked one of the best opportunities of all—the Girl Scouts. Mrs. William Bushman, president of the council board of the Girl Scout assn., of Anaheim, tells me that for the person who enjoys children, there is no volunteer work more rewarding than that of Scouting. Her views are most enthusiastically shared by such well known Anaheim homemakers as Mrs. W. S. Hallowell who has been leader of a Girl Scout troop at Lincoln school for two years; by Mrs. John Bovee, troop leader at George Washington school for three years and by Mrs. John Meyers who because there are not nearly enough leaders to go around, has two troops at Loara school. Through Scouting, there is a broad opportunity to meet other women in the community with similar interests, and the satisfac- In the hustle and bustle of Christmas preparation, we home-makers have only a few extra minutes to spare. On the day when we need a good dessert but have forgotten to buy a package of cake mix, the following recipe for a quick cake comes to the rescue. Ingredients should be at room temperature but an electric mixer and one bowl is all that is necessary, and presto—a cake, frosting and all. SHORTCUT CAKE 2 cups cake flour 1 teaspoon salt 3 teaspoons baking powder 1½ cups sugar ½ cup shortening ¼ cup milk ½ teaspoon flavoring 2 eggs Sift dry ingredients into the large bowl of the mixer. Add shortening, milk and flavoring. Beat for two minutes at low speed. Add unbeaten eggs and beat one minute more. Pour into a greased shallow pan. Before you put this cake in the oven, mix up the frosting. Christmas time, we don't get to look very far beyond our hearths, regardless of what trends. Not the world mistakenly think that we are "pushovers," never. When the blow falls, will start getting ready for it. Santa Claus: I have been a pretty good boy. Would like very much to have able for my train and a play station. David Baumfalk, 609 S. Olive st. Anaheim, Calif. Santa Claus, Here is the present I want a bad player. That is all.

Through Scouting, there is a broad opportunity to meet other women in the community with similar interests, and the satisfaction which comes with helping Anaheim's young folks is all out of proportion with the time spent. The little Brownies who are in second, third and fourth grades in school range in age from seven to 10 years and the intermediates from 10 to 14 years old, usually meet on one afternoon a week. The senior troops meet once or twice monthly in the evening. Girls who have heard about the various projects in homemaking, community life, health and safety and so on are so eager to join that in three years, the Girl Scout enrollment in the Anaheim high school district has jumped from 450 to 750. And the number would be much higher if there were more leaders. Each troop has to have an adult to lead it, and depending on the number in the troop, one or two assistant leaders. No special skills are needed to become a leader. Each prospective leader is offered a training course in group work. She is instructed in crafts, games, singing, group methods and the like. At the end of the training course, she may become a leader or an assistant leader as she chooses. If you have two hours a week to spare, you will make some little group of wistful girls mighty happy by calling the Scout House to talk things over with Secretary Marcel Tessner. Marcel is in her office from 8:30 to 12:30 each morning and the number to call is Anaheim 4889. There is one thing this world has not yet tried, and that is a complete surrender to Christ—a complete acceptance of its divine grace and guidance. This is the Christmas gospel that should not be viewed as merely an event that took place two thousand years ago. —Rt. Rev. William T.

Shopping Around Town Art Fisher, manager of McMahan's furniture store here in Anaheim has stocked a beautiful line of Benrus watches for the Christmas season. The Benrus is the standard timepiece of the major airlines where accuracy is all-important. Heralded as the most beautiful watch in the world, the Benrus can be used around machinery because it is non-magnetic with a rock crystal unbreakable face. It has seventeen jewels, the maximum needed for precision efficiency. The Benrus "Jubilee Bart" is a man's watch complete with second hand and a metallic wrist band specially treated for those allergic to gold. Dainty and lovely is the "Embracable", a woman's watch and a sure way to her heart. The new Benrus "Citation", you will have to see to appreciate. McMahan's has them All. The one thing and only one thing that can melt this human world of ours into a family which will be characterized by brotherhood and the Golden Rule and the spirit of the Good Samaritan, is the love of God. That is the meaning and message of Christmas. —Dr. Daniel L. Marsh Santa Claus: All you please bring me some for Xmas. I have been a good for my mother.
