"What Next?" Ask Kansans Following Winds, Floods, Hail and Tornado WAKEENEY, Kas. UP—Gloomy Kansans, plagued by tornadic winds, floods and hail, are asking: "What next?" More than a month of rains and periodic winds has cost the state millions of dollars. At least 14 persons have died in storms and flood waters. The latest weather wallop came yesterday. A tornado whipped through this western Kansas town of 2,000, destroying 45 homes and damaging 48. Three persons were killed and more than 40 injured. At least two Anaheim families found immediate concern in the Wakeeney tornado yesterday. Charles Sellers, 1201 Lincoln ave., calls it his home town, having lived there during his youth, and Francis Blender, 6321 E. Lincoln, has a nephew and sister living in the town. Neither family has yet had a complete report on damage. The town struggled today to restore communications and power circuits and clean up the debris over a 10-block area. Although the twister was the worst blow of the month, other towns and cities throughout the state have suffered extensive wind damage. The rains have flooded thousands of acres of farmland. Rampaging rivers have washed out bridges, and swept into towns and suburban areas. Landslides and high waters have slowed highway and rail travel. Yesterday's flood waters from both the Solomon and Saline rivers backed up into the city of Solomon in central Kansas. Water ran knee deep in most of the business district and isolated approximately 25 homes. Basement walls of some of the residences collapsed. Hays, 25 miles southeast of here, braced for another flood today. The Big creek sent flood waters into the city of 9,000 twice previously this year. Six persons died there in a flash flood last month when waters swept over 40 to 50 city blocks. H. L. Collins, agricultural statistician, estimated the state's crop, livestock and stored grain losses from the weather at $22,-000,000 to $24,000,000. High waters damaged an estimated 200,000 to 300,000 acres of farmland. Another 200,000 acres of cropland have been damaged by hail and wind. The only thing monotonous in Kansas these days has been the firemen put Enough to Boots Nine Day Tree Perch. LONG BEACH UP—Nine ago, a cat named Boots climbed 50 feet up a 60-foot every tree. She refused to come down. Then, on a personal request the mayor, the city fire department went to the rescue. She body had an idea that squirrel water on the tree would cause the cat down. It didn't. Boots scooted all the way to the top of the tree—and ended there. Yesterday the firemen again. This time they sent high ladder, looped a line to the tip of the tree, and alighted Boots loose. She tumbled down three branches and landed one foot, unhurt. At least she did appear hurt. She scampered away and hasn't been seen since. William R. Callan, Named Associate Farmers Secretariat William R. Callan of Santa Clara has been appointed Secretary of the Associated Farmers of Angie County, Inc., it was announced today by the organization president. Callan who came to this county in 1941 will replace Jack M. who was recently assigned to Associated Farmers of Californias and will serve that group in Southern counties.

In announcing his appointment President-elect John McKinley added "Callan comes to us ceptionally well qualified for position, having had the experience."

It was the same again today: more rain. U.S. EIGHTH ARMY HEADQUARTERS, Korea UP—A small team of U.S. military advisors is welding the South Korean Army into a fighting force that some day may be capable of defending this battle-scarred republic. The team is attached to KMAG—the U.S. Military Advisory Group to Korea—since war began last June 25, these advisors have managed to hold the Korean army together despite staggering losses. Today, through an intensive training program, KMAG is forming a nucleus of professional Korean soldiers. Republic of Korea forces have lacked this solid core. Two big questions now are: What would be the role of KMAG if and when a cease-fire developed? Would this South Korean army be able to protect this country. Both questions were posed to Lt. Gen. James A. Van Fleet, commander of the U.S. Eighth Army. The answer to the first question, he said, must come from Washington. As for the second, Van Fleet said the KMAG training program "will create an effective army for the Republic of Korea which can be sufficient to maintain peace within the country and defend against any aggression from neighbor." KMAG was set up in August 1948 as a provisional military visory group in expectation of the withdrawal of American cupping forces then stationed Korea. The group's mission was advise and train the South Korean Army. Each high Korean officer had an American officer as an advisor. This army, however, was paired only to maintain security when a year ago North Koreans swarmed across the 38th Parallel. Despite overpowering strength, KMAG members shared alongside the South Koreans their desperate effort to stem communist onslaught. Although the ROKs suffered some 40,000 casualties in the few days of the war, KMAG maged to replace these and at same time boost the army fights about 90,000 to nearly 250,000 rallies. The recruits got little training—usually from two to four weeks.

She refused to come down. Then, on a personal request by the mayor, the city fire department went to the rescue. Somebody had an idea that squirting water on the tree would chase the cat down. It didn't. Boots scooted all the way up the top of the tree—and stay! there. Westerday the firemen tried again. This time they sent up a hatch ladder, looped a line over the tip of the tree, and shook loose. She tumbled down through the branches and landed on her foot, unhurt. At least she didn't appear hurt.

CALIFORNIANA—In 1933 California voters, by a three-to-one margin, voted to ratify the 21st Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. In other words, they voted to repeal the 18th Amendment—or prohibition. NAMES — Peter J. Lehr is a busy man these days. He's working his trucking and gasoline empires. Johnny Vuksonovich will get married over the week end. His spare-time agricultural interests will cut his honeymoon short. Truck crops need special care this time of the year.

Walter Peltzke might not be an economist, but like Alberto Peralta, he'll tell you that there's something wrong with present day economics. A pay check doesn't go far. Bill Smith says the lack of steel will make it tough on a lot of folks. Auto plants in and around Ellay are forced to cut production. That means men will be "furloughed" until the automobile industry gets retooled for war production. ANAHEIM NEEDS—Smother surfaced streets. Much of Santa Ana st. is rough as a detour.

POLITICS—Incidentally, why doesn't some Anaheimer with political aspirations throw his hat in the ring for Sam Collins' Assembly post? Collins is to seek Clyde Watson's state Senate post. Jack Miller might not have political aspirations, but the secretary of Associated Farmers of Orange County would be a mighty good man. He's been pitching to preserve the American-way of life. Northern Orange county could use such a man in Sacramento. NITECAPSULE—The more you do for folk, the more they expect you to do. Memo for Vacationists...

Veteran Thesplan Claimed by Death NEW YORK (UP)—David Warfield, one of the great names in the American theater, died last night at the age of 84. Warfield zoomed from burlesque to stardom at the turn of the century and retired from the stage 27 years ago at the peak of his success. It was back in 1900 that producer David Belasco "discovered" Warfield doing a comedy routine with the Weber and Fields burlesque company. For the next 24 years, Warfield's name glittered in marques along Broadway. Some of his hits were "A Grand Army Man," "The Flying Dutchman," and "The Merchant of Venice." Bookie Charges Filed by Police Anaheim police yesterday arrested Kenneth E. Page, 28, 139 N. Nicholas st., Fullerton, on a charge of bookmaking, following several weeks of close surveillance. Page is the step-son of W. M. Gilmore, a Fullerton business man of the same address. Officers investigating the case said Page's Anaheim contacts are known to them. Page was sentenced to a $500 fine or 250 days in jail following a hearing in city court. He elected to pay the fine and was released. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police Force was organized in 1873 as the North West Mounted Police. The name was changed in 1904. Enjoy outdoor eating!
