KUCHEL Publisher MAX BESLER Assistant Publisher LEONARD KREIDT Assistant Editor NEIL STANLEY Advertising Manager G. E. MELLEN Advertising Manager MARY ROULAND Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager LUDY HUBBARD Circulation Manager The high cost of living... Yesterday we noted in the news columns that the cost of living has practically come to a standstill for the first time since the outbreak of the Korean war last June. That statement is based on a report by the government's Bureau of Labor Statistics which every month puts out figures on living costs in this country. Because of the work needed to gather the figures and appraise them, this BLS report is always a month behind. So this latest report shows what happened to living costs between March 15 and April 15. Using a new BLS formula, it showed this: Living costs in that period rose only one-tenth of one per cent, the smallest increase in any month since June, 1950, when the Korean fighting services—up two-tenths of one per cent; and rent—up 1.4 per cent. If you want to know where we stand on living costs in general, the following figures may be of some help: Living costs now are the highest in history. In during living costs in recent years BLS had to choose some period when prices were considered fairly stable. So it chose 1935-39, which it calls the base period. Living costs now are 84.6 per cent above that base period. You can understand how living costs have risen in recent years, particularly since OPA began to die in 1946 and its controls were taken off in June of that year. This will show how: For most of the time between the 1935-39 period and 1946, because of the war emergency, OPA sent Americans an interesting case illustrating how unsuccesful Americans can get sucking supporting communists. Worked With KPD The Civil Service com So this latest report shows what happened to living costs between March 15 and April 15. Using a new BLS formula, it showed this: Living costs in that period rose only one-tenth of one per cent, the smallest increase in any month since June, 1950, when the Korean fighting started. The figures which go into this report are gathered by employees of BLS in 56 cities. Prices in one city usually differ a bit, up or down, from any other city. So, while the cost of food in one city may be higher or lower than in another, BLS has to figure what the average price is on all the items it checks. For that reason housewives in a city where food is high may be surprised to learn that, for the country as a whole, food prices dropped two-tenths of one per cent in the month from March 15 to April 15. (Chief reason for the food price drop was lower prices in fresh fruits and vegetables. Frozen food prices dropped one per cent. Eggs went down two percent. Meat prices went up one tenth of one per cent, because, while prices dipped on chicken and pork, they went up on beef, veal, lamb and fish.) But the BLS—in figuring the cost of living in general—checks on more than food. As part of the cost of living it also includes these major items: clothing; house furnishings; fuel, electricity and refrigeration; miscellaneous goods and services, such as theater prices, carfare, doctor bills, hospital rooms; and rent. And this is what the BLS had to say on those things for the month: Clothing—up two tenths of one per cent; house furnishings—up one-half of one per cent; fuel, electricity and refrigeration—down one-tenth of one per cent; miscellaneous goods Living costs now are 84.6 per cent above that base period. You can understand how living costs have risen in recent years, particularly since OPA began to die in 1946 and its controls were taken off in June of that year. This will show how: For most of the time between the 1935-39 period and 1946, because of the war emergency, OPA sat on prices. Between that base period and 1946 living costs went up only 23½ per cent. But now they are 84.6 per cent higher than that base period. OPA was revived this year under another name — Office of Price Stabilization (OPS) — and shapped its controls on prices late in January after the great upsurge, following the Korean outbreak in June, 1950. Here are some figures on what happened: Between June 15, 1950 and April 15, 1951 living costs went up 8½ per cent. In that period food went up about 11 per cent, clothing a little over 40 per cent, rent 3.2 per cent, fuel, electricity and refrigeration 3½ per cent, and house furnishings—which increased more than anything else in price—up 14.0 per cent. Miscellaneous services rose in that period 0 per cent. From Jan. 15, 1951—OPS controls went in on Jan. 26, 1951—until April 15, 1951, living costs rose 1.7 per cent. In that period this was the increase on the various items: Food—up 1.7 per cent; clothing—up 2.0; rent—up 1.4; fuel, electricity and refrigeration—up half of one per cent; house furnishings—up 2.1; miscellaneous items—up 1.5 per cent. (BLS recently changed the way it figures its living costs to account for changed buying habits, and now issues two tables. The later one is called the new index. That was the one followed here. The old index would have shown there was no increase at all between March and April, not even one-tenth of one per cent.) IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago Mr. Tim Boege has disposed of one of his depot lots to the Miles Bros. He informs us that they intend to build a warehouse. Yesterday was the birthday anniversary of Queen Victoria. A Masonic Lodge is to be established at Pomona as soon as the necessary arrangements can be completed. We were informed by a gentleman from Bakersfield yesterday that sheep can be bought in that vicinity at six bits per head. The youngsters who were brought up before Justice Clark yesterday on the charge of stealing chickens, were discharged on the ground that they were under 14 years of age, and unable to understand the nature of their crime. If we had boys 14 years of age, it is probable that we should by the administration of birch in good doses, teach them the difference between stealing chickens and staying at home attending to their lessons. A Mexican was on the rampage last evening near Conrad's Brewery. He got into a difficulty with another Mexican and cut his fingers off with a knife. Some ladies living near the scene called for assistance and Mr. Louis Warlenberg arrested the offending party and locked him up. 50 Years Ago Ed Bustamente came over from Redlands a day or two ago to visit with his folks. Horace Green of Long Beach, accompanied by his wife and two little children, spent a day or two in town during the week, the guests of Mrs. Fred Crist. The salary of the Anaheim post-office has been raised $100 per year, to begin July 1. Senor De la Guerra of Yorba has a field of grain which, previous to the rainstorm of May 1, Miss Ruth Smith is home Berkeley to spend the summer vacation with her mother or angethorpe ave. The Ladies Aid of the Prentier church will meet (Thursday) afternoon at the of the Misses Aubert. 25 Years Ago County Clerk Backs report registration of 36,114 voters the harbor election on June in political groups they are follows: Republican 25,308; ocrat 7972; Decline to state; Prohibition 679; Socialist Non-Partisan 188; Independent 62; miscellaneous out 26. The bonds amount $1,300,000. The official calls the election will be found on other page of this issue, give all the precincts and precinct officers. Mrs. Pauline Steckert, resident of this city for the 41 years died early Tuesday the home of her daughter, Orville Steckert, corner Cyprus and Emily streets. Decased a native of Germany, born 8, 1848. Besides her daughter is survived by one brother Hemsner of Evanson, Ill., Pim services were held Thursday terioon at 3 o'clock from Backs, Terry and Campbell general chapel. Rev. Thomas Wier, pastor of the Presbyterian church officiated and buried made in Anaheim cemetery side the body of her husband. WASHINGTON — Just a year ago, an American citizen, George S. Wheeler, issued a blast against the United States and announced his intention to live in Czechoslovakia. He and his wife are still there, reportedly teaching school. Interesting inside fact about Wheeler is that, five years before, the U.S. Civil Service commission had suspected his disloyalty and ordered him fired. But thanks to the intervention of well-meaning friends, he was re-instated and permitted to occupy a key job in Germany. The man who chiefly went to bat for Wheeler was David A. Morse, former counsel of the National Labor Relations board, former undersecretary of labor, now with the International Labor office at Geneva. To a lesser extent, Wheeler was also supported by Gen. Frank J. McSherry, director of the manpower division of the Allied Control council in Germany, and by Gen. Philip Fleming, then chief of the Public Works administration, later chairman of the Maritime commission. This was back in 1945, of course, when Americans were considerably more trusting than they are now. The incident presents an interesting case history illustrating how unsuspecting Americans can get sucked into supporting communists. Worked With KPD The Civil Service commission Three County Athletes in Track Finals By STAN JONES Southern California high school tracksters figure to dominate the state finals tomorrow at Berkeley with no one team certain of capturing the title. Last year Jefferson of Los Angeles walked or rather ran off with the state crown by rolling up 40 points. Runner-up Glendale, the CIF champ, could only score a mere 18. In last year's meet there were five records tied or broken, but these doesn't seem to be any real standout this season. Lang Stanley of Jefferson in Los Angeles ran the 880 in 1:53.0 for a new national record; Steve Turner of Glendale ran the high hurdles in 14.1 for a state record; the lows in 19.0 for a state record; Herb Turner of Alameda, who is back this year, tied the state record in the 220 yard dash in 21.2 in a preliminary heat and Ron Baur of Washington in San Francisco concluded the record breaking performance by running the mile in 4:23.7 for a state meet record. There will be only three county athletes entered in the meet—Larry Kirchman, Colonist quarteriller; Adolph Maya from Garden Grove in the mile and Bob Suess, half-miler from Huntington Beach. Suess carries the pest record into the meet—an unblemished season while Kirchman has lost only one race—to the CIF. HANDICAPPED GOLF TOURNAMENT—After a grueling for the above formal shot at the 19th hole. For the most the big boy in the middle, was a flight winner while Jud the act also are (left to right): Abe Cone, Art Shipkey, R probably would want us to say "unidentified." (It's actually Conklin, Trujillo and Roquet W Flights of Anaheim Golf Field) Rock Conklin, local printer, was the top man yesterday in the Anaheim Golf Association's big field day at Meadowlark. Winner of the first flight, Conklin went in This was back in 1945, of course, when Americans were considerably more trusting than they are now. The incident presents an interesting case history illustrating how unsuspecting Americans can get sucked into supporting communists. Worked Will KPD The Civil Service commission first acted to fire Wheeler when he was chief of the denazification control branch of the Control Council in Germany after receiving reports that Wheeler was a courier for the KPD, the German communist party. This belief rose from the fact that after Wheeler had visited certain cities, the local branch of the KPD would immediately begin agitating long the latest communist lines. As a result, William H. Hull of the Civil Service commission wrote on Jan. 2, 1945: "Mr. Wheeler has followed the communist line in its changes from before 1939 to date. Evidence relating directly to this matter is supported by other evidence that shows Mr. Wheeler's active participation and sympathetic interest in policies and programs directly and indirectly furthering the objectives of communism." "The position to which Mr. Wheeler was appointed is of such importance to the government of the United States ... that great care must be exercised ... Mr. Wheeler has been rated intellegible." However, David A. Morse, then lieutenant colonel and Wheeler's immediate superior, wrote a contemplated cutting for hay. It headed out so well he will en it into grain and go into the market for hay. Miss Ruth Smith is home from Berkeley to spend the summer nation with her mother on Ortehorpe ave. The Ladies Aid of the Presbyterian church will meet this Saturday afternoon at the home Misses Aubert. Gen. Matthew Ridgway sent an important cable to the Defense department, this week regarding his problems with President Syngarel. There will be only three county athletes entered in the meet—Larry Kirchman, Colonist quarter-miller; Adolph Maya from Garden Grove in the mile and Bob Suess, half-miler from Huntington Beach. Suess carries the best record into the meet—an unblemished season while Kirchman has lost only one race—to the CIF champ, Jack North of Long Beach Jordan. Kirchman will be running against North (50.4); Carfer, Burroughs (49.9); Moore, Jefferson (50.0); Randolph, Jordan (50.2); Outerbridge, South Gate (51.5); Marcelli, Central Union, Fresno (50.5); Beatty, Sacramento (50.6); King, Vallejo (50.9) and Loomatt, Washington, San Francisco (51.2). Last year Miller of Napa won in 48.8, while the Sunset League winner, Clyde Wilson, went unplaced. (Continued on Page 7) Long letter, Oct. 1, 1945, stating among other things: "I am taking this opportunity now that I am back in the States to submit my letter in Mr. Wheeler's behalf with my estimate of his high integrity and unquestioned loyalty to America." Later, Oct. 29, 1945, Morse appeared before the Civil Service commission and testified that "If Wheeler had been dismissed pursuant to the Civil Service letter of Jan. 2, the constructive side of the U.S. postwar effort in Germany would have been adversely affected." So Wheeler was re-instated and served with the American military government in Germany from Dec. 30, 1945 to Dec. 29, 1947. Three years later, on April 7, 1950, he asked for asylum of the Czech government and has since been reported by the Czech press as making speeches in praise of that "communist paradise" and attacking the "warmongering" of his native country, the United States of America. Ridgway vs Klee Gen. Matthew Ridgway sent an important cable to the Defense department, this week regarding his problems with President Syngarel. Rock Conklin, local printer, was the top man yesterday in the Anaheim Golf Association's big field day at Meadowlark. Winner of the first flight, Conklin went in to a playoff to defeat Frank Trujillo and Sully Roquet, winners of the second and third flights. The Troutman and Scholz perpetual trophy competition ended in a three way tie between Bob Becker, Win Borden, and Al Cotler. Becker was adjudged the winner by the flip of a coin. Low gross for the day was made by Hal Gregg who shot a 71 Joe Scholz and Frank Donaldson came up with 77s. High gross(1) for the day went Earnie Moeller and Leo Harpin. Moeller shot approximately 130 while Harpin's score was in the neighborhood of 135. Both men professed they had never had a golf club in their hands until they teed off (after several tries) yesterday. The blind bogey went to Claude Owens, Bob Jaynes, Hal Gregg, and Judge John Shea, president of the association. Stan Wieldon sank the longest putt of the day. Local merchants entered into the spirit of day by contributing a host of prizes for the boys to lug home to show the wife where they had been for the day. At a big chicken dinner at the Meadowlark club house, the prizes were awarded for about everything the boys could think of. Prizes were donated by Kendrick's Jewelry, Cotler's, Lake's Swanbergers, McCoy Drug, Alex Tumale Factory, K & L Auto Wash, Fay Bett's Service Station, Bob Williams Sporting Goods, Shipkey and Pearson, Anahiem Marine & Sports Store, and Meadowlark Golf Course.

Matthew Ridgway sent an important cable to the Defense department, this week regarding his problems with President Syngman Rhee and Korean troops. President Rhee has insisted that Korean troops be organized as independent units and fight completely on their own. General Ridgway, on the other hand, has found that Korean troops fight well when closely integrated with U.S. troops but break and run when organized as independent units. Each time the Chinese have struck recently, they have aimed their chief blows at the South Koreans. Therefore, General Ridgway asked the Defense department to help him straighten out this problem with elderly, crusy President Rhee, who arrives that if Korea is to defend itself in the future, its troops must learn to fight independently. Secretary Marshall immediately got in touch with the State department, secured its co-operation toward informing President Rhee that his troops must be integrated, at least until the crisis is over. Note—At Wake Island, President Truman felt Rhee was a weight around Korea's neck, suggested to General MacArthur that new elections be held. MacArthur differed, stanchly defended Rhee. Truman dropped the matter. Six Teams in Junior Baseball League Setup With Huntington Beach canceled plans to withdraw, the Orange County Junior Legion Baseball League will operate as a six-team league as originally planned this season. The league opens Saturday, June 2 with Anaheim traveling to Fullerton, the four-time champs while Santa Ana goes to Orange and Newport travels to Laguna Beach. The games will be played on week-ends plps Wednesdays. Home and home series are scheduled every Saturday and Sunday afternoons. The season starts June 2 and ends July fourth. Then the playoffs start. The Orange county champ will meet the Riverside county champ at Evans field in Riverside in the first game and return to meet for the second game and third, if necessary, at La Palma Park. Besides the regular awards there will be two more prizes for athletes competing in the loop. A trophy will be given to the most valuable player in the circuit while the other will go to the leading hitter in the loop. Last season Fullerton's Jack Ramsey topped all hitting from his catching position. MENT—After a grueling day on the Meadowlark Golf course yesterday, some local dignitaries pose the 19th hole.
