Nevadans Wait, But No A-Blast LAS VEGAS, Nev., (CP)—Alarm clocks went off early today in expectation of the fifth atomic blast at the new government range near here, but not a sound marred the dawn. Most of the town seemed to be up and waiting as a result of a warning from the Atomic Energy Commission Sunday of new tests "in the near future." Many clad in dressing gowns over pajamas, citizens lined highways outside of town for an unobstructed view of the northwestern horizon. If it had been planned—and the AEC wasn't saying—local opinion was that the test was cancelled because of the weather. It was heavily overcast, and the atom experts presumably want to avoid sending a radioactive charge into a cloud which might drift off to drop radioactive rain miles away. The AEC disclosed last week that it was investigating reports of radioactive snowfall in upstate New York—presumably as a result of earlier detonations here. High atomic brass gathered here in anticipation of the next test, which residents are frank to think may be the biggest yet, because of the published warning. Friday's was severe enough to break a big window in a downtown furniture store. The list of experts on hand includes Sen. William R. Knowland Anaheim has its own cobbler, old-fashioned variety. For the past eight years Ysidro Ybarra Saucedo, 87, shown above in his shop, has been turning out custom-built sandals from a cluttered little shop at 1018 Patt st. No tyro at the cobbling trade, Saucedo has been at it for the past 54 years, both in this country and in his native Aguas Calientes, Mexico. Born the son of a potter, Saucedo began cobbling at the age of 13. In due course he met a girl named Mary, wooed her and won her for his wife. In 1912 they left Mexico and came to Anaheim. The following year they moved into the home on Patt st. New York—presumably as a result of earlier detonations here.

Returns might have been better, Guard pointed out, except for three factors: "State grade regulations for orchard run fruit is too lenient with a 15 per cent tolerance, and some of the larger shippers insist on moving this type of fruit to the markets causing a depressing effect on our better fruit. "The second problem has become an industry disease. We are the only fruit or vegetable industry in the U. S. today which has a volume prorate on its shipments. "Third, but by no means least, is the auction market, which is merely second hand selling. It appears that during most of the summer they are given a surplus of fruit, and a continuous surplus can abuse the profitable results expected from competitive bidding."

Four Seriously Hurt in County Accidents Over Past Weekend Four persons received major injuries in a series of Orange county traffic accidents over the week end, which injured 13 persons in all, the California highway patrol reported today. Two Marines, two Sailors and a girl Marine were hurt, three seriously, when a car driven by a Sailor, Terrence R. J. Castor, 21, Montebello, attached to the naval training station at San Diego, collided head-on with the car of a Marine, Pfc. Alma C. March, 22, Camp Pendleton, on Highway 101 near Tustin Saturday at 10:45 p.m. Miss Eileen Feky, 22, girl Marine from Camp Pendleton, is said to be in the most serious condition. Also with major injuries were Pfc. Robert G. Crebtree, 22, Camp Pendleton, and the driver, Pfc. Alma C. March. Castor and another Sailor, Barton L. Munro, 24, 116 S. Birch st., Santa Ana, received minor injuries. All the injured were taken to El Toro Marine base dispensary, then by ambulance to Camp Pendleton hospital. Thomas Gore, 4, 1512 Park ave., Sunset Beach ran across Coast highway in Huntington Beach in pursuit of his little black dog at 9:30 p.m. Saturday and was struck by a car driven by Donald E. Smith, 22, Los Angeles, whose car skidded 126 feet in an effort to miss the child. Thomas received major injuries on the forehead and mouth, his upper teeth being loosened. He was taken to Long Beach Community hospital, thence to Harbor General hospital. Geo. J. Wentz, 31, Long Beach born E. Nelson, 47, 137 E. 23rd st., Long Beach, at Santa Ana blvd. and Flower st., Santa Ana Sunday at 2:30 p.m.; Mrs. Nelson suffered head and knee injuries and was taken to Santa Ana Community hospital. Francisco G. Paredes, 23, Sailor from El Monte, received a broken arm at 1 a.m. today when he fell asleep at the wheel of the car in the 1500 block on N. Main st., Santa Ana, and his car struck a telephone pole. He was taken to El Toro Marine base dispensary. Wayne H. Walker, 23, 709 Hello-trope ave., Corona del Mar, suffered a possible fracture of the wrist at 5:20 a.m. Sunday when his car collided with the car of Joseph N. LaLonde, 24, 950 W. Myrtle st., Santa Ana. The accident took place in the 1200 block of N. Main st., Santa Ana. Walker was taken to the County hospital. Draft Railroaders Continued from Page 1 have appeared in the strike of about 12,000 railroad switchmen but a general back-to-work movement still was not in sight today. Nearly all the approximately 50 lines affected by the "sick" call walkout had little or no relief "Third, but by no means least, is the auction market, which is merely second hand selling. It appears that during most of the summer they are given a surplus of fruit, and a continuous surplus can abuse the profitable results expected from competitive bidding." Speakers representing Mutual Orange Distributors, the association's marketing cooperative, were Clark Donmyer, director of merchandising, and Joe Imhof, general sales manager. "MOD recognizes three important outlets in marketing California's citrus crop," Donmyer said. "These are the fresh fruit market, and the single-strength and frozen concentrate juice markets." "In all three," Donmyer emphasized, "the grower, shipper and marketer must cooperate to give the consumer the best possible quality product." Imhof reviewed prospects for the fresh fruit market during the coming year and spoke briefly on conditions in Texas and Florida where cold weather at the present moment is threatening crops in these two areas. Added to the uncertainty about competitive areas is the threatened rail embargo which may hamper shipments from California, and which has already temporarily built up the deal in Florida, Imhof said. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR Sold at ... Bigler Pharmacy 201 W. Center Ala 2420 County Employees Ask for Increase Pending results of a salary survey by the county personnel office, Orange county employees want a cost-of-living increase in pay, they told the county supervisors last week through a committee headed by Don Spencer of the county probation department. Federal cost-of-living indexes show a continuing rise in costs. The committee reminded the supervisor. They asked for the increase as a temporary move, pending findings of the salary survey being conducted by Personnel Officer David Goodman. Supervisors indicated that they would give their answer to the request possibly this week. Too Much, Poison Foils Suicide Try Despondent over her home conditions, Mrs. Berline Hoffman, 23, a waitress living at 6370 Mission st., Buena Park, last night attempted to take her own life and those of her two children, Larry Joe Hoffman, six, and Ronald C. Hoffman, four. Her attempt failed because she gave them so large a dose of ant poison that they became ill and emptied their stomachs of the poison. The same result saved her own life. A report at the sheriff's office said Mrs. Hoffman, who has been estranged from her husband for more than a year, gave each of her sons a full bottle of Antrol and swallowed one herself. When the boys became ill Mrs. Hoffman repented and called a physician about three and a half hours after administering the doses. The children and their mother were taken to the county hospital where further measures were taken with stomach pumps to remove the poison. All are expected to recover. Mrs. Hoffman is being confined in the county hospital but her sons were released to the care of their grandparents.

Corporation income taxes—an increase of eight percentage points in normal income tax for corporations, adding $8 in tax to each $100 of profit. This would lift the rate from 25 to 33 per cent on corporations with profits below $25,000, and from 47 to 55 per cent on those with higher profits. Mr. Snyder spoke of the effect of the taxes on America's living standards in this way: “Fortified by an expanding economy, we can raise more revenue than we did in World War II and still maintain our national living standards—perhaps not at the levels of 1950, with its 1,500/4000 new homes; 6,500,000 new automobiles and 7,000,000 television sets, but at levels amply high to sustain the productive energy of the American people at full capacity.” In dealing with individual income taxes, Snyder suggested that Congress consider some adjustment—he did not say what—of the split-income tax-reducing privileges now enjoyed by married couples in the income brackets above $3,200. “Single persons with income less than excess of $3,100 will pay more tax under the proposed rate schedule than they paid during the war,” he said. But under present law, he said, “married people in the middle brackets who benefit from the income splitting provisions will pay substantially less than they did during World War II.” Elks Show Continued from Page 1 geles four to retreat without so much as letting out a cheep.

Owners of a majority of the land, Tarbar Montgomery and his sisters, Louise and Gertrude, petitioned for annexation of the property recently, then asked for a variance from R-1 zoning, an automatic classification for annexed areas, to M-1 in view of the desirability of the area from an industrial standpoint. The property, now covered by orange groves, is crossed by the Southern Pacific Railroad's tracks and has been termed by officials "excellent for industrial purposes."

As the story later developed, when the Los Angeles four got to the auditorium the rookie cops were pointed out to them. They sat in their car and talked it over and decided there was no use risking life and limb by provoking "civilian" policemen, especially if they are sporting guns. Professional pickets have long since learned that "clvillian" policemen may be provoked more easily than trained peace officers; the "clvillian" components as a rule are unpredictable when needled too far. The imported pickets didn't wait to find out how touchy the Anaheim reserve cops might be. They broke contact with their Northern Orange county friends and apparently drove off to the safety of the big city. Undoubtedly they returned to their home stamping grounds with a low regard for their Orange county buddies...and they had one BIG farce to report to their leaders. (Incidentally, the Gazette's sources of left-wing information are fully known to all law enforcement agencies concerned with subversive activity and are known to other anti-subversive groups in Orange county.)

To Open New Plant Incorporation proceedings preparatory to construction of a new factory for the Alex Tamale Co., now located at 415 S. Olive st. Anaheim are under way, and construction is scheduled to begin Feb. 12, according to Leo Harpin, auditor for the company. A site for the new facility has been acquired on N. Lemon st. just north of Romneya dr., consisting of an undisclosed number of acres. Rex construction Co., of Anaheim will pour the foundation, according to Harpin, and bids will be requested for the rest of the work. The original plant has been at its present location for the past 60 years. It is named after its founder, Alex Morales, now deceased. His son, Alex Jr., is general manager of the plant. Sixty-eight workers are employed in the old plant. It is hoped that the new one will need the services of 100 employees, Harpin said. Attorney John Shea is legal counsel to the company and has been assisting in the purchase of land from Alfred J. Buberl.
