This was for one line of the larger sizes and the amount paid was $8.95. It seems to be a cinch that the larger sizes this year will be in the money. ROBERT R. KNEIP ABOARD USS LENAWEE Robert R.

TUESDAY, JUNE 5, 1951 Acheson Says N Buffer Zone to Red Troops Are Approaching City of Red 'Iron Triangle' Credit Bureaus Honor Raymond A. L. Raymond, manager of Northern Orange County Credit Bureau, has just received word from the Associated Credit Bureau of America, that he has been selected as the outstanding credit bureau manager in the cities of 15,000 population and under in Arizona, California, Nevada and Hawaii. This is the third straight year that Raymond has received this honor and his name will be placed in competition with the winners from the eight other districts throughout the United States and Canada for International Award. This competition is based upon bureau operations together with participation in state and national affairs of the credit bureau structure. In 1949 Raymond served as president of the district comprising Arizona, California, Nevada and Hawaii, and in June, 1950, was elected as director at large for the Associated Credit Bureau of America, comprised of some 1650 bureaus throughout North Carolina. Anaheim Gl Takes Japan In His Stride SENDAI, Japan—An Anaheim soldier has taken advantage of the 40th Infantry Division's assignment in Japan to renew old family ties broken 32 years ago when his parents left the city of Sendai for the United States. Pvt. Tom T. Shozi, 9702 Western ave., hit the jackpot relatively speaking, when he discovered his grandmother, aunt, two uncles and numerous cousins living in the northern Japanese city. Field training with the 223rd Heavy Mortar company keeps Shozi busy during the week. However on weekends he visits his uncle, Y. Kanno, an auto sales agent, and his grandmother, Jun Kanno, in Sendai. Shozi claims Japan is as new to him as it is to most other 40th soldiers. First impressions found him amazed at the crowded living conditions and primitive farming methods of the Japanese people. Walker to Trial In Cook Slaying RIVERSIDE (AP) — Air Force Sgt. Lawrence Walker, 20-year-old Negro, goes on trial today for his life in the desert slayings on a teen-aged couple. Richard and Doris Cook, 18 parents of an eight-months-old boy who was found playing haphily near the body of the father were shot to death last March 26. During days of questioning by police, Walker steadfastly denied the slayings but admitted his car had sideswiped the Cook car on the remote desert highway. Walker also was indicted on charges of raping a young River side woman and assaulting her escort in a park here last February. He also has been indicted in Newark, N.J., for the 1947 slaying of a woman found dead in a bathtub in the same apartment house where Walker lived.

Days MacArthur Vetoed ne to Reassure Chinese WASHINGTON (UP)—Secretary of State Acheson testified today that Gen. Douglas MacArthur disapproved last November a proposal for a demilitarized zone on the Korean-Manchurian border. Acheson told Senators investigating MacArthur's ouster that the British, French, Canadians and others had suggested such a zone. This was before the red Chinese entered the war in force. Acheson said the thought was that the zone would make it clear there was no aggressive intention by U.N. forces against red China. The Secretary of State said MacArthur didn't think the suggestion was a good one and disapproved it. Senator Long (D-LA) com- This was before the red Chinese entered the war in force. Acheson said the thought was that the zone would make it clear there was no aggressive intention by U.N. forces against red China. The Secretary of State said MacArthur didn't think the suggestion was a good one and disapproved it. Senator Long (D-LA) commented to Acheson that he could see how the approach of U.N. troops toward the Manchurian border might have caused the Chinese communists to get "trigger happy." "If a police action were going on in Mexico and Russian troops were active there, the Americans would become very jittery themselves if they saw the Russians come all the way up to the border of Texas," Long said. Acheson said the United States will consult the United Nations before making any armistice in Korea. He held to this stand despite insistence from a Democratic Senator that this county should be free to act on its own. Senator Gillett (D-Iowa) long led sharply with Acheson both on the question of an armistice and on President Truman's right in the first place to send U.S. troops to Korea without Congressional approval. Under Gillette's questions, Acheson said the U.S. commander in the field has the right to "bring about an armistice." But he said other U.N. members would be consulted. Gillette said he doesn't agree that is necessary. "I may say that I deplore your interpretation and repudiate it personally," he told Acheson. Gillette insisted that the United States, given what Acheson said was "full command" in the field, could act "subject to a report to the Security Council and nothing more." It was Acheson's fourth day of testimony at hearings by the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees on the ouster of Gen. Douglas MacArthur from his commands. Acheson was dismissed from the witness chair but was asked to return (at 7 am PDT) tomorrow. The day's retail problems is being planned by the three men above, member of Commerce manager, Walter Swanberger, chairman ofober vice-president, for the panel discussion of Anaheim's ship meeting of the Chamber at noon tomorrow in Anaheim (Gazette photo by Kreldt) Price Cutting Seems Popular With Populace NEW YORK (UP)—Price-cutting spread to new sectors of the nation's retail front today, stimulating the public appetite for bargains. Shoppers swept into big New York department stores for the sixth day of the local price war, and grouped about harried sales clerks. But with many items sold out, the hectic pace of previous days in the housewares and men's clothing departments eased a bit. Emphasis shifted from the electric mixers and tasters that were the main targets of early buying, to other articles such as watches, pens, percolators, phonograph records and larger appliances. Across the nation, sporadic outbursts of cutting of former "fair trade" fixed prices occurred. out, the hectic pace of previous days in the housewares and men's clothing departments eased a bit. Emphasis shifted from the electric mixers and toasters that were the main targets of early buying, to other articles such as watches, pens, percolators, phonograph records and larger appliances. Across the nation, sporadic outbursts of cutting of former "fair trade" fixed prices occurred. At Oklahoma City, where a drug chain had dropped prices on all electrical home appliances 25 per cent, Katz drug, a southwest chain, announced a three-day sale with the "world's lowest prices." Reductions included: Sunbeam Mixmasters to $33.33 from the fair trade price of $46.50; Ronson lighters to $3.94 from $6.60, and Motorola television sets to $179.95 from $219.95. At San Francisco, prices were reported leveling off at the reduced tags put on yesterday, while suburban shops joined in dropping prices in hopes of keeping their customers from flocking to city stores. When a drug store in Omaha cut prices on some electrical appliances, an appliance store served notice it would "meet or beat" any advertised price. Other cities that got into the fight yesterday included Newark, N. J., and Baltimore, Md. As the battling bargain hunters stormed store counters, New York (Continued on Page 6) Temperatures Temperature reading in downtown Anaheim at 2 p.m. today was 73. High for the previous 24 hours was 76 at 3 p.m. yesterday. Low was 62 at 8 a.m. today. was "full command" in the field, could act "subject to a report to the Security Council and nothing more." It was Acheson's fourth day of testimony at hearings by the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees on the ouster of Gen. Douglas MacArthur from his commands. Acheson was dismissed from the witness chair but was asked to return (at 7 a.m., PDT) tomorrow. The day's hearings were cut short so the committee members could attend a Senate session. HIKES DOG LICENSES Amendment to the Santa Ana dog license ordinance, adopted by the city council last evening, increased the license tax from $1 to $3 on female dogs, the $1 tax on males and spayed females remaining unchanged. Councilman informally expressed approval "in principle" of a preliminary suggestion from William Moore, president of the Santa Ana Humane Society, that the city build its own dog pound and turn its operation over to the Humane Society.

Broadway, Anaheim, will leave tomorrow night for South Bend, Ind., where she will spend the summer.
