MELLEN RALPH ROULAND DON YOUNG Publisher Assistant Publisher City Editor News Editor Sports Editor Advertising Manager Assistant Advertising Manager Classified Advertising Manager Circulation Manager To heck with California... One maritime union said that the Lurline, set to sail for Hawaii with 748 vacationing passengers, couldn't leave its San Francisco dock unless four of the crew were fired. A rival union said the Lurline couldn't sail unless the same four men were retained in their jobs. The steamship line executives—helpless in the situation—cancelled the sailing. San Francisco papers denounce the senseless, costly, basically purposeless action of the aquabbling union factions. One paper estimated the loss to the steamship company at $250,000; to Hawaii at $500,000; to San Francisco at many millions through a "financial heating as of the disappointed passengers to indicate how heavy a loss from that sailing cancellation will fall on all of the rest of California. Mrs. Stewart Schifrin, on vacation from Cincinnati, angrily declared: "Trips out here are on everybody's mind in the Middle West; but now we'll fly home and then head for Jamaica or Florida. To heck with California—and Hawaii, too!" The lure of California is tarnished for thousands who otherwise would have visited here, spent money here, and built new homes and businesses here.

The steamship line executives—helpless in the situation—cancelled the sailing. San Francisco papers denounce the senseless, costly, basically purposeless action of the squabbling union factions. One paper estimated the loss to the steamship company at $250,000; to Hawaii at $500,000; to San Francisco at many millions through a "financial beating as the incident translates itself into dwindling business through the port." It remained, however, for one plea of this state? A sound choice . . . Whatever difference of opinion there may be over provisions of the forthcoming Japanese peace treaty, the decision to hold the official signing in California is sound and proper. Scarcely half over, the Twentieth Century has already become the Century of the Pacific. The shores of the Pacific Coast became our first line of defense, and our springboard of offense; in World War II. To the Japanese people, with whom America seeks to consolidate new friendship, the name of California is familiar. The cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles are very real to thousands of Japanese who have done business with Americans, whereas Boston or New Orleans or even Washington, D. C., probably seem vague and far distant places to many of them. It is across the Pacific—and very close, where the marrow strait runs between Alaska and Siberia—that the Russian bear crouches. Our California has become the new cross-road of the world—the focal point for destructive attack in war as well as the greatest growth and prosperity in peacetime. This was recognized even by the diplomats of Europe when they agreed to organization of the United Nations in San Francisco. And the successful fight of San Francisco's Mayor Robinson to bring the treaty-signing ceremonies to his city will result in historic reaffirmation of California's position of world importance when the diplomats meet there in September. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anabelm Gasette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago The foreman of the irresponsible Hen Lee, who has figured so much in our Justice's Court, is now taking his experience in law by bringing suit against another Celestial, Ah Man, for stealing 28 dollars. The highly intellectual, refined and educated citizens of San Luis Rey will assert their intelligence and refinement by having its headquarters office in San Francisco. District Attorney R. Y. Williams was in town yesterday visiting with old friends. He is said to be getting up his fences good and strong for renomination to the office next year. Mrs. Brown of Redding, Shasta county, a sister of Mrs. L. F. Lewis, has been in town during the oil production are already up in the West Texas Mexico basin for lack of the Secretary of Interior timed, and a 100,000 day production in the Mountains is awaiting action of the Platte pipeline hope, however, was made from Mexico, and that he was flying to Mexico man explained. Ban On Gas Furnish Natural gas—The industry overexpanded and already have the pipe to bring goods to customers. An order further installation of new home-heating units is without such a stop-order palachian area will have a shortage in case next week even two weeks of sub-non-weather. Defense factories case, would come first, hot. Conl—there is plenty in the ground for both dawn and west European rearrangement but a big bottleneck is coal cars. Chapman esse there must be an increase 150,000 such railroad car year. Again, steel is involved. Aluminum — Secretnrman estimated that we will a step-up of nearly 10 tons a year. He has been titling for six months to smaller companies into dustry and break the three major producers. Note—The above is what in the Near East, includes troubles in Iran, the abatition of King Abdullah in Jordan, and riots in Egypt important to the USA. G. I. Mallbag This column tries to inform and answer the many G. that pour in from militaries and bases around the world are some recent grips by G. I. Mallbag: A sergeant with the Army in Korea: "I remember General Mark Clark American enlisted me spolied with luxuries. If it is spoiled in this man's it's the brass hats. When you investigate how many servants some of brass have? Answer: Gen. Mark Clark 75 Years Ago The foreman of the irrepressible Hen Lee, who has figured so much in our Justice's Court, is now taking his experience in law by bringing suit against another Celestial, Ah Man, for stealing 28 dollars. The highly intellectual, refined and educated citizens of San Luis Rey will assert their intelligence and refinement by having a bull fight today. Nearly 6,000 persons were killed in this country last year by accidents arising from the use of kerosene. At the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Farmers and Merchants Bank of Los Angeles, held on Wednesday night, the following named gentlemen were named directors for the ensuing year: Isaias W. Hellman, O. W. Childs, John S. Griffin, C. Ducommuro, John G. Downey, L. C. Goodwin, C. E. Thorn, Jose Mascarel, Frank Lecouvrer. At the subsequent meeting of the Board of Directors, I. W. Hellman was elected president and Mr. Frank Lecouvrer, cashier. We understand that the merchants of Anaheim intend to refuse trade dollars for anything over ninety cents. 50 Years Ago Frank Ey drove through the oil region on Tuesday, returning by way of this city. He owns an interest in the Manges oil well in Brea canyon which produces 85 barrels per day. He was accompanied by his son, Frank, who is home on a leave of absence from his position as military clerk in General Shaft- District Attorney R. Y. Williams was in town yesterday visiting with old friends. He is said to be getting up his fences good and strong for renomination to the office next year. Mrs. Brown of Redding, Shasta county, a sister of Mrs. L. F. Lewis, has been in town during the week, the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Lewis. C. O. Rust and wife visited Pike's Peak and other points of interest in Colorado on their way home from the Pan-American exposition. They are expected to reach Anaheim in a few days. 25 Years Ago Mr. and Mrs. Kurt Epstein are spending a vacation in San Francisco and other points of interest in the north. While in the former city they attended the Lions convention which convened there this week. E. W. Baum, mall carrier No. 1, is on duty again after an absence of a month. He and his family spent the vacation in the San Bernardino mountains. A party of 32 persons, comprising employees of the Johnston-Wickett clinic went over to Catalina last Saturday on a picnic. Some of them did not return home until Sunday. Thomas R. Bishop, Jr., is arranging to open in Anaheim as Nadine Hat shop. The store will be opened on West Center street in the room adjoining the Kemp Brothers Pharmacy. WASHINGTON — A grim prospect of fuel shortages this winter was presented to President Truman in a sober, hour-long meeting by Secretary of Interior Oscar Chapman recently, Chapman, who is no "wolf" crier, pointed out the following chances of gas rationing and heatless days this winter: For oil and gasoline — Iranian oil production, which supplies five per cent of the needs outside the Iron Curtain, may be halted for weeks and even months. In addition, Soviet agents are trying to stir up trouble in other Near East oil areas. Since the Near East supplies fuel for Western European defenses, the difference will have to be made up from the Americas—if Soviet agitation succeeds. Chapman explained that the oil industry could not increase domestic production unless it gets more steel. "We need 2,135,000 tons of steel pipe," he said, "if we are going to meet the increasing demands of this country." Some $00,000 barrels of crude oil production are already backed up in the West Texas-New Mexico basin for lack of pipe, the Secretary of Interior continued, and a 100,000 barrel a day production in the Rocky Mountains is awaiting completion of the Platte pipeline. One hope, however, was more oil from Mexico, and that was way he was flying to Mexico, Chapman explained. Some 300,000 barrels of crude oil production are already backed up in the West Texas-New Mexico basin for lack of pipe, the Secretary of Interior continued, and a 100,000 barrel a day production in the Rocky Mountains is awaiting completion of the Platte pipeline. One hope, however, was more oil from Mexico, and that was why he was flying to Mexico, Chapman explained. Ban On Gas Furnaces Natural gas—The industry has overexpanded and already does not have the pipe to bring gas to all its customers. An order prohibiting further installation of natural-gas home-heating units is a must. Without such a stop-order, the Appalachian area will have a serious shortage in case next winter has even two weeks of sub-normal cold weather. Defense factories, in this case, would come first, homes last. Coal—there is plenty of coal in the ground for both domestic and west European rearmament, but a big bottleneck is gondola coal cars. Chapman estimated there must be an increase of 150,000 such railroad cars next year. Again, steel is involved. Aluminum — Secretary Chapman estimated that we will need a step-up of nearly 1,000,000 tons a year. He has been negotiating for six months to bring smaller companies into the industry and break the hold of the three major producers. Note—The above is why events in the Near East, including oil troubles in Iran, the assassination of King Abdullah in Jordan, and riots in Egypt are so important to the USA. G. I. Mailbag This column tries to investigate and answer the many G. I. grips that pour in from military camps and bases around the world. Here are some recent gipes from the G. I. Mailbag: A sergeant with the Eighth Army in Korea: "I read that General Mark Clark thinks American enlisted men are spoiled with luxuries. If anyone is spoiled in this man's army, it's the brass hats. Why don't you investigate how many personal servants some of the top brass have? Answer: Gen. Mark Clark, chief of the Army's field forces, has Naval Operations. He automatically gets two drivers, two chefs, two orderlies, one supervisor and a boat crew of six to do handy jobs around the house—total 13. These enlisted servants are all able bodied, and qualified for more important fighting assignments than waiting on the brass. Mrs. Eleanor Johnson, Washington, D.C.: "I am writing you in behalf of my son, Private John L. Johnson of Fort Meade, Maryland. He had an automobile accident in Fairfax, Virginia, and has been put in jail because he didn't have a driver's permit. Now the Army has listed him as AWOL, and will not let me have his pay. I am under doctor's care." Answer: Private Johnson is caught in a difficult squeeze between the police and the Army. He was confined to the Fairfax county jail for 70 days for reckless driving. The police refused to release him to the Army until his fine of $85 is paid. However, the Army has placed him on the AWOL list and cut off his pay. So the boy can't draw any money to get out of jail, and the longer he stays in, the more penalties he faces for being AWOL. This column has asked the Army to look into the matter and be more human. Pets Ahead of Wives Mrs. W. T. King Jr., Mobile, Alabama: "This is a gripe letter from a G. I. wife. I just want a good and fair reason why a general's wife is going to Japan to join her husband, and I, a lieutenant's wife, cannot . . . I also understand that automobiles and pets are being shipped to Japan, though there isn't room for dependents." Answer: It is true that Gen. Matt Ridgway's wife and Gen. O. P. Wayland's family have been ad- JUST TO BEAT the Exchange with the news to California growers we hasten to record that Florida expects to haul 14,000 acres of new groves bearing next year for the first time—the fact that their canners and concentrators put up a record of citrus juices this season. Six out of every ten oranges grown in Florida went this past season. Are the Florida growers and processors concerned? Is look such as to make them downhearted? You know darn well it is not or we would not be about it. The only people in Florida who express concern being able to sell the whole kaboodle at a profit to the are the ones who want to buy fruit from the growers C The people who want the growers to make a profit on them are out working to that end. Without Mutual the big processors, Snow Crop, Minute Birdseye and Pasco would have knocked down the price of with it would have gone the price of groves. Then these would have bought more groves cheaper and finally owned them. To this extent Florida Citrus Mutual has already been treme benefit to the small California valencia grower. These same people, who want to buy oranges CHEAP restricting grove planting, elimination and the like. WHO DOES THAT sound like to you out here in California much "elimination" will we have in our valencia deal this? But Florida looks at the recent statement of the Exchange they are ready to do battle with the southerners by put frozen orange concentrate under the Sunkist label with rather smile. With all the "furse" we made here in California it is that our potential is so small. Seems like shooting a 16 inch rabbit. But the Florida processors still smile and so do the growers. They say, and are right open about it, that the lots and lots of people who have never even tasted frozen concentrate. In this group alone they see a fertile field vation. After all, the Florida people point out, the frozen concentrate business is only four years old. See you that the Florida outlook is all on the POSIT while the Exchange, the leader in California, is all on the In other words California badly needs LEADERSHIP. We have too many in positions of authority with axes And the devil gets the hindmost—in this case the grower. THE EXCHANGE points out the tremendous holdover G. I. Mailbag: A sergeant with the Eighth Army in Korea: "I read that General Mark Clark thinks American enlisted men are spoiled with luxuries. If anyone is spoiled in this man's army, it's the brass hats. Why don't you investigate how many personal servants some of the top brass have? Answer: Gen. Mark Clark, chief of the Army's field forces, has four enlisted men assigned to him as personal servants—one driver, one cook and two house orderlies. Army Chief of Staff Collins has six servants—two drivers, one cook and three orderlies. Air Force Chief of Staff General Vandenberg has four—two drivers and two enlisted handymen. But the prize goes to whoever becomes Chief of Alabama: "This is a gripe letter from a G. I. wife. I just want a good and fair reason why a general's wife is going to Japan to join her husband, and I, a lieutenant's wife, cannot . . . I also understand that automobiles and pets are being shipped to Japan, though there isn't room for dependents." Answer: It is true that Gen. Matt Ridgway's wife and Gen. O. P. Weyland's family have been admitted to Japan, though all other dependents have been barred since July 14, 1950. It is also true that automobiles and pets are still shipped to Japan. This column could not find the exact number of pets, but 544 automobiles have been shipped since dependents were banned for lack of transportation. TWO BUNDLES OF JOY — Leading Seaman Jim Ashworth, of Winnipeg, Canada, holds twin daughters, Famela and Paulelf whom he saw for first time after his ship returned from Korean waters. His wife holds first child, David, 18 months old. THE EXCHANGE points out the tremendous holdover concentrate that MAY be with us at the end of this year. The under-line statement in their "news letter" which good every grower. We have a question for them on this one: WHAT ARE THEY DOING ABOUT IT WITH THE EXCHANGE OF TRYING TO GET THEIR GROWERS READY TO TAKE THEIR RETURN? What are they doing up there in the Kremlin about creating DEMAND for frozen orange concentrate? They are getting paid, and providented, out of the return our fruit and what have they done to merit a contract to "fruit. A good sized crop, like we have this year, should be leased to good salesmen—but these guys in the Kremlin make this crop a bug-a-boo to the grower. How long do you suppose they would last selling car Chevrolet Motor Company? The first time they came in idea that about 40 per cent of the automobiles should be id'd the factory they would get fired. And no provident plan sit. Now for a little sunshine. Down Florida way they have of new ideas that will SELL that extra juice for MONEY grower. After they get the big end of it we may even see S bottles and paper cups. That is all in the future—for California Citrus Market The California Fruit Growers Exchange reported today that markets California oranges were higher.

LOS ANGELES, July 27—(AP)—The Federal Market New reported today lemons and oranges steady, prices unchanged fruit about steady. OBLONG VIEWS FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD BY WALDO HUNTER HIGH ON THE list of Orange county undesirables who should be earmarked for early deportation to Russia are those individuals who dump their trash along the county roads. I don't mean occasional wine, beer or whiskey bottles tossed from cars, but the piles of trash and garbage which one frequently sees while driving through the otherwise beautiful Orange county landscape. It would be fun to be a deputy sheriff for just 24 hours and go hunting for these thoughtless despoilers of the rural scene. THE FOLLOWING item was published in the July 22 Santa Ana Register: ANAHEIM—An Anaheim police patrol car was almost rammed during a 90-mile-per-hour pursuit of a car driven by a rockless driver at 4 p.m. Sunday morning. The patrol car was outdistanced near the Olive bridge. The offending driver raced up and down most of Anaheim's downtown street in his efforts to avoid capture. Just for the record, the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce should get a letter off to the county seat daily reminding it that Anaheim has more than ONE downtown street. DICK CONTINO, the once unheralded and unsung son of a butcher who—via Horace Heidt's radio talent hunt show—zoomed to stardom as an accordionist able proaching that of the Hollywood Bowl. There is nothing wrong with this $4,000-a-week accordionist that a $40-a-week U.S. Army first sergeant can't cure. But if the first sergeant fails to cure the young musician of his aversion to small, confining places, a 2 x 3 x 6 fox hole, poppered with enemy machine gun bullets, will turn the trick. LEGAL NOTICES (Pub. Anaheim Gazette July 12, 20, 27, 1951) STATE OF CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS Sealed proposals will be received at the office of the State Highway Engineer, Room 406, Division of Highways Building, 120 South Spring Street, Los Angeles, California, until 2 o'clock p.m. on August 9, 1951; at which time they will be publicly opened and read in Room 2 of said building, for constructing highway in accordance with the specifications therefor, to which special reference is made as follows: Orange County, on Wright-Brookhurst Street, between Wintersburg Avenue and Santa Ana Freeway (VII-Orra-747), about eight and nine-tenths (8.9) miles in length, portions to be widened and plant-mixed surfacing placed over existing, surfacing and new untreated rock base and the remaining portions to be graded and Just for the record, the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce should get a letter off to the county seat daily reminding it that Anaheim has more than ONE downtown street. DICK CONTINO, the once unheralded and unsung son of a butcher who—via Horace Heldt's radio talent hunt show—zoomed to stardom as an accordionist able to demand and get $4,000 each week for his music, has had some trouble with his draft board, and I feel sorry for the young fellow. Any time you get that long, official-looking envelope from the draft board, you are in for trouble, and Dick, the virtuoso of the push-me-pull-you, is no exception to the rule. At least 99 per cent of the young Americans take the summons in stride and dutifully acquiesce to Uncle Sam's stern dictum that youth owes service to a country which gives so much in return. Dick was different. He complained of claustrophobia. This is an indisposition characterized by an unreasoning fear of being enclosed in a small room, or so they tell me down at the office. In Dick's case symptoms may have been aggravated by the certainty that a $4,000-per-week salary was soon to be reduced to something like $50 a month. This realization would be enough to give anyone the "fantods" (an ancient term grandmother employed to describe the "fits" housewives had when their marmalade failed to jell). Young Contino reported at Ft. Ord, Calif., a day late, passed his Army psychiatric exam, then departed in his convertible without requesting permission, a practice which is frowned on in Army circles. He was found some time later lurking in a motel. He gave as his excuse for the flight a fear of being in small places. Ft. Ord is a military reservation covering some 28,000 acres. Although no intimation was given in press releases as to the size of the roadside hostel Contino was found in, we are forced to assume (from his repeated declamations against small confining places) that he at the office of the State Highway Engineer, Room 406, Division of Highways Building, 120 South Spring Street, Los Angeles, California, until 2 o'clock p.m. on August 9, 1951, at which time they will be publicly opened and read in Room 2 of said building, for constructing highway in accordance with the specifications therefor to which special reference is made as follows: Orange County, on Wright-Brookhurst Street, between Wintersburg Avenue and Santa Ana Freeway (VII-Ora-747), about eight and nineteen miles (8.9) miles in length, portions to be widened and plant-mixed surfacing placed over rocking, surfacing and not unrestricted sand and remaining portions to be graded and surfaced with plant-mixed surfacing on untreated rock base.
