THEODORE B. KUCHEL Publisher MAX BEESLER Assistant Publisher LEONARD KREIDT Assistant Editor NEIL STANLEY Advertising Manager G. E. MELLEN Advertising Manager MARY ROULAND Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager LUCY HUBBARD Circulation Manager Truman vs. MacArthur... Near the end of his brilliant career General MacArthur, a proud man, suffered two setbacks which undoubtedly stung him severely. First, the Chinese forced his troops in Korea to make a great retreat. And then, when he urged broader war against China, President Truman stripped him of his commands, a great humiliation for any general. MacArthur urged the wider war on China on the grounds that it was the only sensible way to fight the war, would bring it to a successful conclusion, and would save American lives. He urged this even though—as he told two Senate committees yesterday—we might have to go Chiefs of Staff—and probably Secretary of Defense Marshall and Secretary of State Acheson—will soon follow him before the Senate committees to give their views. President Truman must feel that what they say will contradict MacArthur, for late yesterday Mr. Truman urged the country to wait until both sides were heard before reaching a conclusion. The Truman administration's view is this: The main threat from communism is from Russia, not China, and the main threat is in Europe, not Asia; so defense against Russia has to be built up in Europe; therefore, don't get involved any deeper in Asia, since it would YOU NEED a lot shot "hired help" whyhich returns the growtelligent work we believe the growter that is.

WHEN THEY CAN their own inadequate majority of citrus in the completely control the outsider to do a good job themselves look good who they undersold and growers fruit. And if you want them many cases in spite of parrot the propaganda life. Last year a certain couple of their growers said they say in the sacred rectors and the president received vastly more money. In the annual meet that they had released would like to tell the a released had done on Not one person open it was all over the presid badly their Sunkist house asked them why they had put the "big shot" from the on the spot. These two d MANAGER, their hired MacArthur urged the wider war on China on the grounds that it was the only sensible way to fight the war, would bring it to a successful conclusion, and would save American lives. He urged this even though—as he told two Senate committees yesterday—we might have to go in to it alone without Allies, even thought it might possibly—although it might possibly—involve us in a prolonged war with China, or even bring in Russia and start World War III. If he had had his way, of course, and fought the war with China to victory, as he wanted to fight it, that defeat by the Chinese last November and December would have been erased from the history books. But as he insisted before the Senators, the chance of carrying out his view was denied him by the president who had different plans and took all MacArthur's commands away from him. MacArthur returned home in a fighting mood, plugging for his viewpoint, not retreating from it one step, and arousing the country to great excitement, over a controversy which has split the country down the middle on our foreign policy. If in the end he can persuade Congress and the nation to his view, foregoing a change in the war in Korea to his way of doing it, he will be vindicated since it would be his judgment, and not the president's, which the country accepted. And so far the show has been pretty much MacArthur's. Great city receptions were given him; he addressed Congress; the Republicans rallied to his support; and now he is having his big day in court, testifying before the combined Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees. This one-man show can't last forever, of course, for the Joint IN THE DAYS OF LONG AG From the Files of Anaheim Gazette IN THE DAYS OF LONG AG From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago A large drove of cattle was encamped near Anaheim last night. They are the property of Don Juan Forster of Santa Margarita ranch, and are being taken to the San Francisco market. The suit of Mr. Caldwell against Mr. Evans to recover a debt connected with the building of the Artesia school house, was brought up before Justice Clark yesterday, and decided in favor of Mr. Evans. The winners of the prizes at the writing school on Tuesday evening were Miss Annie Bremmermann, and Mrs. Robb. Mr. A. L. George purchased eighty acres of land, adjoining J. B. Pierce's farm, yesterday. Mr. Olden is seeking new light on the land business, and has inserted a window at the back of his office on Centre street. Among the arrivals by train last evening were Miss Libbie Yocum, Ed Miles, Albert Rimpau and M. L. Goodman. 50 Years Ago A dozen head of horses have been stolen in Orange county during the past two weeks. Horses have been stolen from Capistrano, Garden Grove, La Mirada and other places. No arrests have been made. Daniel Baker, editor of the Santa Ana Bulletin, has returned from San Francisco, where he underwent a surgical operation for an allment of the throat. Reports are to the effect that he is improving and will soon be himself again. Frank Ey was over from Santa Ana the other day. Frank has been elected chairman of the city trustees of that city. He proposes to introduce all kids who stay out compelling all kids who stay out late at night smoking cigarettes to be home and in bed at 4 o'clock. 25 Years Ago William E. Wortman, a valued attache of this office broke his right wrist in two places, at his home on Sunday afternoon. Mr. -Colony QuipsBy the Gasite Farm Editor YOU NEED a lot of sand in your craw to ask some of the hot shot "hired help" whyneck they took these export orders at a price which returns the grower only cost of production when by some intelligent work we believe it was possible to get more money—for the grower that is. The $3.75 figure could just as easily have been $4.80 with the grower getting the entire difference. Don't tell us different because last year the price started out high and then the Exchange started to take orders "cheaper" and brought the whole price structure down. That story was common in the industry last year. We just wonder why? Why do these paragons of all virtue sell our valencias for less and force down the whole industry and not just their own growers. WHEN THEY CAN force down the whole industry they make their own inadequate returns look better in comparison. With the majority of citrus in their hands to do anything they like with, they completely control the price structure. They make it as hard for the outsider to do a good job as they can. And they do it only to make themselves look good when compared with the other guys return who they undersold and underbid to take away his market with the growers fruit. And if you want the truth the big boys looked pretty bad in many cases in spite of all this chicanery. Don't let the Pollyannas parrot the propaganda line to you and have you believe it. Last year a certain packing house (not in Anaheim) released a couple of their growers so they could sell their fruit on the "outside" as they say in the sacred echelons of the Exchange. A couple of directors and the president of the house knew that these men had received vastly more money for their fruit than the house had paid. In the annual meeting the presiding officer mentioned the fact that they had released a couple of growers and asked if anyone would like to tell the assembled growers how those who had been released had done on the "outside." Not one person opened his mouth and the meeting went on. After it was all over the president met these two directors who knew how badly their Sunkist house had been beaten on the "outside" and he asked them why they had not made the report which would have put the "big shot" from the Kremlin and the management right square on the spot. These two directors then admitted they were afraid the MANAGER, their hired man, would take reprisals against them. RE-ENACTING a famous Biblical scene, Victor Mature, as told Samson presses against the columns that hold up the Temple. The scene is from Cecil B.

Well, whatever th rectors and the president of the house knew that these men had received vastly more money for their fruit than the house had paid.

How would you like an employee with that kind of power over your income? And you say that all the integrity is in the Exchange set-up? THE WHOLE POINT is that this is not the fault of Mr. Wilcox or any others of the "hired help" but is right in the lap of the grower. The individual grower, we grant you, has very little to say and not even a vote. But if enough of him gets up on his hind legs and starts showing the "boys" who is paying the bill it might not at this date, be too late to insist on some changes. It will show the "boys" who is the boss—a thing many of them need briefing on—but bad. It may be the best thing that could happen to them—and the industry. You will never go wrong being humble. WASHINGTON — Nine months before the Korean war General MacArthur predicted that the Chinese communists could be easily defeated in any major conflict" and remarked that Chang Kai-Shek "knew nothing about the art of warfare." These amazing statements, exactly the opposite of what MacArthur now professes to believe, are contained in a secret report to President Truman, submitted by Congressman Charles Deane of North Carolina in September 1949. Deane was head of a Congressional delegation which called on MacArthur in Tokyo to get his views. Deane reported MacArthur was believing that the "Chinese reds were greatly overrated and could be easily defeated in any major conflict." Also that use "Soviets were powerless to conduct a full-scale war on the China mainland." But the most remarkable statement was MacArthur's reference to invasion of the Chinese mainland. Arthur said he did not think the North Koreans would overrun the South Koreans, but that the United States would have to support South Korea in the event of trouble." The North Carolina Congressman also reported that it was MacArthur's view that Russia had nothing to gain by taking over South Korea. And that Russia was most interested in Asia in order to gain access to a warm-water port on the Indian ocean. "Russia has shifted from its generation-old policy of seeking ports on the Mediterranean to a new aim of driving for a warm-water port on the Indian ocean," Deane explained MacArthur's reasoning. Note: In a separate memo attached to Deane's secret report to the president, the North Carolinian also complained about Maj. Gen. Charles Willoughby, MacArthur's heel-clicking intelligence chief who has now asked to be retired. At a military briefing, Deane reported, Willoughby used a full colonel as a messenger boy to juggle the charts and snapped his fingers every time he wanted the colonel to remove a chart. Deane also complained that Hal Boyle NEW YORK (AP) — Practice puts by the poor man's philologist: Are American girls better looking this spring? An informal poll at our office watering trough disclosed that everybody thought the girls were more beautiful all right, but for varying reasons. "They're rounder," said a fellow who likes 'em plump. "Winter feed must have been more plentiful this year." "They're more slender," said a fellow who prefers 'em thin. "It's probably some new type out-of-light armor they're encased in. It doesn't let them overflow so much." "Nope, you're wrong," objected another. "It's just that you can see them more like nature made them. They don't wear those circular tents like they did a couple of years back." "I think it's because there aren't so many of them walking around like ducks," remarked a fourth. "Not so many wearing those flat-footed slippers that make them look like they're hiking off to dance in a ballet." "It's because they are more intelligent—widom always makes people look better, even girls," such attempt would not constitute delegation but rather abdication." That's what MacArthur said in 1932, TODAY'S CROSS-WORD PUZZLE Deane reported MacArthur was believing that the "Chinese troops were greatly overrated and could be easily defeated in any major conflict." Also that the Soviets were powerless to conduct a full-scale war on the China mainland. But the most remarkable statement was MacArthur's reference to invasion of the Chinese mainland. Deane quoted MacArthur directly as saying: "I consider him a highly intelligent leader. But he knows nothing about the art of war. He is surrounded by corrupt officials and generals, his troops are very ineffective and poorly equipped." As another example of MacArthur as a military prophet, Deane reported to the president: "MacArthur was all set to answer General MacArthur with his own words at a press conference called just after the general was fired. Mr. Truman had an interesting quotation from MacArthur neatly typed out on a piece of paper and tucked inside his coat pocket when the press conference started, and he planned to read it if newsmen asked him about the man he had just fired. But at the last minute the president changed his mind. However, here is MacArthur's own statement about the supremacy of the president, which the president almost read, and which was made by MacArthur in 1932: "The national strategy of any war—that is, the selection of national objectives and the determination of the general means and methods to be applied in attaining them, as well as the development of the broad policies applicable to the prosecution of the war—are decisions that must be made by the head of state... Co-ordinating Army and Navy effort could not be delegated to any subordinate authority. Any..."

"They look better to you because you're all a year older yourself. The older you get, the prettier they look—darn life anyway." Well, whatever the reason, girls, the verdict is unanimous: you look prettier this year than ever. Personally, I like stories about children. Here's a couple from the suburbs: A schoolteacher, taking her third grade pupils over the hurdles of grammar, had brought them to the problem of punctuation marks. They found the apostrophe particularly difficult to understand. "Apostrophes, apostrophes," complained one little girl. "That's hard to pronounce. Why don't they just call them flying commas?" And doesn't that make wonderful common sense? The father of a ten-year old girl recently received a telephone call from one of her pre-teen age male schoolmates asking his daughter's hand in marriage. The startled father fought that request down firmly. Well, then, can I take her to the movies Saturday?" asked the small determined voice at the other end of the wire. "We're all going." The dazed parent decided he had better consent to this—and did. "You know," replied his little future son-in-law cautiously. "Everybody pays his own way in."
