5 Anaheim Gazette WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1951 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Wilson Charges Communist Groups With Attempts to Kill Attendance Members of the group sponsoring the Christ for Orange County crusade here last night charged elements in the county with undertaking a "needling campaign designed to discourage attendance." A spokesman declared the tactics being used are similar to those used in Illinois, when a red group burned the huge tent in which a well-known evangelist was speaking. Labor Camp Continued from Page 1 parently prejudiced." "I am merely trying to keep this proceeding from becoming a rabble-rousing squabble," said Ogle. And Hurwitz promptly resented to word "squabble." "There is more than a million dollars worth of citrus land in the area affected, besides homes in the Bitterbush tract of Orange worth $980,000," Hurwitz declared. He said 98 of the 99 families in the Bitterbush tract had signed the protest. Hurwitz recited for the record his statements to the board yesterday that the county planning commission had passed the use permit for the camp after only three days notice, with none of the adjacent neighbors notified, although more than 1200 signatures from more distant points had been obtained favoring the camp. He also recited the objections. "Of course," he admitted, "'we've had nothing of such proportions here." The most damage that has thus far been done, he reported, was for the anti-Christian element to methodically tear down and destroy most of the several dozen specially-printed signs which the organization had scattered along principal roads leading into Anaheim. "At first we thought it might have been the State Highway organization which had removed the signs," the spokesman explained, "but a check shows they had nothing to do with it. We're sure it isn't the work of ordinary vandals or pranksters as the entire operation has been conducted methodically." The series of sessions, the unidentified spokesman went on to point out, have been "definitely anti-communistic." Dr. T. W. Wilson of Charlotte, N.C., the evangelist who will continue the series Hurwitz recited for the record his statements to the board yesterday that the county planning commission had passed the use-permit for the camp after only three days notice, with none of the adjacent neighbors notified, although more than 1200 signatures from more distant points had been obtained favoring the camp. He also recited the objections made yesterday to an immediate decision and his plea to the board of supervisors for postponement—which the board had then refused. Statements were made to the board by Sprague today that the shortage of fruit pickers is critical and two weeks delay would be damaging to the county's harvest. Hurwitz disputed the statement and quoted union labor statistics which said there would be no shortage. He also said there are many on the unemployment relief rolls of the county who should have first chance at the job. However, other sources have indicated these unemployed persons will not accept jobs as fruit pickers. Chairman Willis Warnet, then called for a vote on a motion by Supervisor Willard Smith, of Orange, seconded by Supervisor Ralph McFadden, of Placentia, to proceed with the hearing immediately. It was carried. Forced to proceed under protest, Hurwitz started his case by getting statements from Supervisors Smith and McFadden that they are officials of two fruit associations affiliated with Citrus Growers, Inc. Hurwitz then asked these supervisors if in view of their quasi-judicial position in the case they should not disqualify themselves as interested parties. County Counsel Ogle intervened to develop that the two association do not have a vote on the directorate of Citrus Growers, Inc. There are more than 20,000 species of trees in the world. Many Nurses Request Hadacol HADACOL Helps Folks Suffering Deficiencies of Vita- The series of sessions, the unidentified spokesman went on to point out, have been "definitely anti-communistic." Dr. T. W. Wilson of Charlotte, N.C., the evangelist who will continue the series through March 11, commented that "my blasts at communism have only started" and will continue "whether or not they are attempting to discourage us." On the final day of the crusade, the evangelist added, he intends devoting his entire sermon to the red problem, showing the damage caused by the false ideology. The meetings are being held at 804 E. Center st., in the quarters of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit association, which have been turned over to the sponsoring church and lay groups for the campaign. Zoning Law Continued from Page 1 had been turned down because he did not present plans for the structure with the application. Rent for La Palma ball park was hiked by the city council when an application was considered for renting the park to the Pittsburgh Pirates for recruit training. March 1 to 12. Mayor Charles Pearson objected to the usual $10 per day rate as "too cheap" and asked that the rate be jumped to $25 per day. Councilmen Robert Boney and L. N. Wisser weren't overly enthusiastic over the idea, but finally agreed to keep the old $10 rate plus a $15 per day charge for maintenance and upkeep. A tentative map for a subdivision at Wilhelmina st. and Jade Way was accepted by the council. Ralph W. Maas, the subdivider, appeared to request approval of a plan for sidewalks next to the standard curbs on Wilhelmina st. and gutter-type curb on Jade Way. This method does away with parkways and met some opposition from City Administrator Keith Murdock, who pointed out that the street might lack visual balance with the new-type sidewalks on one side and the familiar signs," the spokesman explained, "but a check shows they had nothing to do with it. We're sure it isn't the work of ordinary vandals or pranksters as the entire operation has been conducted methodically." Chit Chat Mr. and Mrs. E. W.

Many Nurses Request Hadacol HADACOL Helps Folks Suffreing Deficiencies of Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron Registered nurses, in increasing numbers, are showing a keen interest in HADACOL and in the results that are being secured with this great modern formula. Requests have been received from many of these nurses for professional samples of HADACOL and many of them indicated that they recommend the HADACOL formula to their patients. For example, Mrs. Kathleen C. Marquess, a registered nurse, who lives at 519 West 2nd St., Hopkinsville, Ky., says this about HADACOL: "Your HADACOL has already improved my appetite, and I am sure I'll regain my fifteen pounds soon. Those patients to whom I passed on your professional samples are all continuing to take HADACOL and most of them are now trying it in the family size bottle. All have been helped. Some are much, much better from an emotional standpoint. I saw one yesterday sitting on the porch of the next-door neighbor, chatting and smiling. She had only been able to walk around in the house. Just imagine that—after only three bottles of HADACOL!" Mrs. Marquess and her patients, whom HADACOL has helped, were suffering deficiencies of Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron, which HADACOL contains. Copyright 1951 The LeBlanc Corporation (Adv.)

This method does away with parkways and met some opposition from City Administrator Keith Murdock, who pointed out that the street might lack visual balance with the new-type sidewalks on one side and the familiar parkway on the other. A public hearing March 13 at 8 p.m. was ordered by the council to consider a request for a zoning variance to permit Mr. and Mrs. Charles B. Halley of 703 No. Lemon st. to operate a real estate office in their home. The request had been turned down by the planning commission Jan. 19 when residents in the area objected to business activity in the area which is in an R13 zone. Mrs. Halley explained to councilmen last night that the business would not be advertised by unsightly signs, but that they planned only to place a 12-by-12 inch sign in a front window of the house. The council approved a resolution permitting the Santa Ana City Council, as agent for the Joint Outfall Sewer districts, to advertise for bids for a 6000 gallon-per-minute raw sewage pump and an evaporator for the JOS treatment plant. A premium of $685.20 for insurance policies for the city's rolling stock and $10.14 for its park lawn mowers was approved by the council.

SA Election Continued from Page 1 consultant on water pollution problems, are the other candidates, although Blakeley had not yet fil­ed his paper today. While Mayor Mandy is retiring, the erstwhile "big three" of the council, which voted together, on most issues, appears certain to retain the other two cogs, Councilmen Virgil Reed in Ward 1 and Councilman John W. Martin, Jr. in Ward 2. Neither had an opponent as the final filing day arrived. On the other hand, Councilman Courtney Chandler, of the minority bloc, has some spirited opposition coming up in Ward 5 from Plummer W. Bruns, former mayor, who is attempting a comeback after same five years in retirement. Chandler, in fact, has not yet filed his nomination papers, but is expected to before closing time. He is president of the Orange County League of Municipalities. In Ward 4, Councilman W. J. Cheney, long disabled by illness, is not a candidate. Only candidate in the ward up to now is Attorney Robert Webb. In other city offices, excepting that of city attorney, the incumbents appear to be headed for reelection without opposition. These include Chief of Police B. A. Hershey, City Clerk Erma Keeler, Treasurer M. L. Pearson and City Judge Ronald Crookshank.

Water Rate Continued from Page 1 care of expansion and replacement of facilities during a time when the city has been exp兰 ing at a high rate of speed. Those expenses were taken out of the city's tax-supported general fund, he said. The old rate schedule called for $1.50 for the first 750 cubic feet; 10 cents per 100 for the next 49,250 cubic feet and eight cents per 100 for 50,000 cubic feet or over. The new rates are $1.75 for the first 750; 12 cents per 100 cubic feet for the next 49,250 and 10 cents for anything over 50,000 cubic feet. Murdoch said the 12-cent rate for volumes from 750 to 50,000 cubic feet was decided as a conservation measure. Rates outside the city were raised from $3 for the first 750 cubic feet to $4, and from 15 to 20 cents per 100 cubic feet for volumes over 750 cubic feet. Minimum charges for meter instillations larger than 3¼-inch were raised in proportion with the increase for water volumes. Another measure on which the city council is working at present will further ease the water system load on the general fund, according to Murdoch. They are formulating a resolution, he said, which will place the cost of water main extensions for new subdivisions on the subdivider, who, heretofore, has paid only $2.50 per foot for the installation. Murdoch said the cost of installation runs much higher. This rate increase plus relief from the cost of installing water main extensions for new subdivisions should allow operation of the water department without loss in the future, if the city does not develop too fast, Murdoch said.

Los Angeles St. WHEN BETTER AUTOMOBILE Anaheim's original "man-in-a-bind" is James Donald Duval, 21, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Duval of 1301 W. North st. The traditional choice between the devil and the deep blue sea has nothing on the predicament in which Duval finds himself—he really has no choice. A week ago he received a missive from City Attorney Preston Turner, informing him that legal action would be taken against him if a herd of hogs kept on the Duval property is not moved by next Saturday. Moving hogs is a difficult business, according to Duval, but he began preparations for the process. Then, on Monday, came another stroke of strange fortune in the form of a letter which began: "From the president of the United States—Greetings." This morning James Donald Duval became a member of that select body, Uncle Sam's Armed Forces. Possibly the transplantation of the pigs, 36 of them, to 520 acres of desert near Dagget purchased last fall by Duval, could be accomplished by Duval's family, except that a series of previous incidents makes it impossible. During World War I, J. P. Duval suffered a serious head injury while working in the Long Beach shipyards and is now undisabled for heavy work. Another headache, recently relieved, was the problem of getting transformers to run water pumps on the Duval property near Dagget. Shortages in electrical equipment forced the delay of complete development of the land for hog-raising and made it impossible to move the pigs there. Duval said he had explained all this to the city attorney, but was told the pigs would have to be moved by the March 3 deadline on pain of legal action. The porkers in question are penned on a large tract of land near the Duval home and also have the run of a large, deep sand pit to the north. "I can't see how the hogs can be much of a pest to anyone since they run on plenty of dry ground and don't have a chance to make any obnoxious hog-wallows," Duval explained, "but if the city attorney says they have to go, I guess they'll have to. Only thing is, I wish someone would tell me how to do it while I'm executing left flank and rear march movements for Uncle Sam."

During World War I, J. P. Duval suffered a serious head injury while working in the Long Beach shipyards and is now unable to do the heavy work of moving the hogs. Two of his sons are now in the U.S. Navy and another is in Fullerton Junior college, expecting to be drafted upon graduation in June. James might have completed the move before this if a timber had not fallen across his foot last October, crushing the bones and leaving him still George Honored By St. Michael’s Annual George Washington Corporate Communion was celebrated by the men of St. Michael's Episcopal church, and over the United States, last Sunday with a breakfast at Dorothy and Wade's restaurant following the 8 a.m. service.
