You've heard a lot about the water shortage in Southern California. But most of the information is in terms of alphabetical agencies, electrions, and what not, which makes it a little hard to comprehend. Definitely, water is a serious problem in these parts. It is becoming in shorter and shorter supply—lakes are drying up, the water table is dropping down and drown, and salt water is beginning to creep in upon the underground supplies. Here is an example of what is happening. The following news story from the Associated Press, yesterday, is easy to understand. It sets up the situation, in one area, very strikingly: BIG BEAR, Calif—Mile-along Big Bear Lake, scene of many a sized, leaving much of its five-mile length just sandy bottom. Some resorts are high and dry, more than a mile from the edge of the water. For agriculturists this poses a considerable financial problem. Well water is available on the floor of the valley to keep the groves alive, but it costs several times as much as the stored variety. And even the well supply is dwindling as underground tables recede year by year under increased pumping. Winter rains are expected soon to help restore the supply, and also to end the need for irrigation. But General Manager Horace Hinckley of the Bear Valley Mutual Water Co. says an abnormally rainy year will be necessary to eliminate the prospect of a crisis next summer. DANSON confronting television, radio motion pictures.

It sets up the situation in one area, very strikingly: BIG BEAR, Calif.—Mile-high Big Bear Lake, scene of many a regatta, is little more than a mud puddle today. It's all because of Southern California's seven-year drought. The lake is a popular resort area, but it's even more popular as the chief source of water for thousands of acres of citrus in the eastern San Bernardine Valley. When it is full, it stores 72-170 acre feet of water. That's the equivalent of a geyser a mile square ascending more than 13 1/2 miles into the air, or about as high as man has ever flown. But today it is down to two percent of capacity, and shrinking every day as a warm sun in a still-cloudless sky sucks up what's left of its surface. It has shrunk to two lakes, neither much more than pond IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago (October 1876) The board of supervisors have established the following election precincts: Anaheim—at office of Water Company; Inspector, John Fischer; Judges, David Evey, Theodore Rimpau, San Juan Capistrano—at schoolhouse; Inspector, J. E. Bacon; Judge A. P. Puller and Richard Egan; Santa Ana—at schoolhouse; Inspector, Tillman Bush; Judges, Prudencio Yorba, Mr. Hazen, San Joaquin—at house of Mat Sims; Inspector, James McFadden; Judges, E. Tedford, C. W. Vance. Orange—at hotel, Inspector, P. Bowers; Judges, Dr. Beach, R. B. Warren. Westminster—at schoolhouse, Inspector, M. R. man Stern and Dr. Johnston appeared before that honorable body today to ask for a reduced rate for water to be offered the projectors of the sanitarium. As Stern arrose to address the board in that impressive manner characteristic of him, Trustee Fay quite unexpectedly exclaimed "I move we adjourn!" Fay had on his military uniform and was anxious to get to Santa to attend a court martial, which was to be followed by a hop. It was getting late—it was nearing 9 o'clock. Trustee Weisel said: "I second the motion!" Mayor Helms did not know what it was all about (neither did Stern) who looked up with a surprised glance. Fay withdrew his motion amid OBLON FROM AN BY WA THERE WAS A TIME when spectfully called "the most diggeth that was in the days before blatherskites and long-winded enveigled, hoodwinked, hypnotized of their respective state skelter to the Hall of State where in noisy minority they now rallied with hollow oration and roll the resounding phrase to the befuddlement of all and edification of none.

The lady members of St. Michael's Episcopal church have already begun to make preparations for a festival that they propose to give next Christmas.

Grain is coming in abundantly. 50 Years Ago (October 1901) At the meeting of the City Fathers on Tuesday evening Her- It was getting late—it was nearing 9 o'clock. Trustee Weisel said: "I second the motion!" Mayor Helmsen did not know what it was all about (neither did Stern) who looked up with a surprised glance. Fay withdrew his motion, amid laughter, saying it was all a joke on Stern, and his honor relapsed into his usual composure. Then later in the evening, while Dr. Johnston addressed the board, Stern executed a pencil sketch of his honor. Why do we not publish Stern's sketch? The reason is plain. Helmsen would sue us for libel, and then we have a tender regard for the sensibilities of our readers. Joseph Fiscus of Miraflores whose right leg was broken in three places by a fractious horse the latter part of June, was about on crutches during the week. Mr. Fiscus was in a Los Angeles hospital upwards of three months, and has been out some three weeks. His leg is still encased in a plaster cast. This will be removed next week when it is hoped an investigation will reveal the fact that the fractures have completely healed. 25 Years Ago (October 1926) Mrs. Fannie Lyon and Miss Margaret Higgins of Hollywood came over Sunday to attend the fiftieth anniversary celebration at St. Michael's and were guests of Mrs. Helmsen for the day. Why should the president of a big corporation, comfortably drawing down $200,000 a year, give up his security and his happiness to go to Washington and assume a thankless task which even under the most favorable conditions is made miserable by the back-stabbing, the vicious gossip, the intrigue which continually eddies about Wall Street Optimistic For Motion Picture Future By TOM E. DANSON HOLLYWOOD—Having just recently returned from New York, William Keighley, well-known motion picture director, and producer, the consistently top-rated "Ra-Theater" series (C.B.S., each Sunday), took time out from his fires during rehearsal, to discuss me a few of the problems. DOWN TV-RADIO BOW ... Alan Young is not feeling too well these days. A hang-on of the "flu" gave cause for a recent complete physical with a series of tummy X-rays ...

More and more of these crime shows coming on each day! Aren't there any new suggest that the subcommittee call Mr. Daniel J. Hanlon if he was in any way connected with the legal corps with the government or American President line. Information in Senate mittee files indicates that the Commerce Department ruled against turning American President into Dollar, Hanlon was his representative in Washington. WASHINGTON—A man who wasn't there — General Eisenhower—was the main topic of discussion at a meeting of Taft-for-President advisers in Washington recently. Cincinnati's Ben Tate, head of Standard Brands and a top Taft backer made it plain that Taft's forces will throw the book at Eisenhower if he enters the GOP presidential race. Remarked the usually jovial Tate: "If the general gets in the campaign he'll have to take it like any other candidate. Just because he's been in uniform doesn't give him any immunity from the searching cross-examination of voters. "In fact," continued Tate, "I've met Republicans who said they had information about the general that should be made public. I didn't discuss it with them, but I know Republicans generally want to know whether he really belongs to the party, and where he stands on issues that are important to Republicans." The question was also raised as to whether Eisenhower is really a candidate. "I understand," remarked Dave Ingalls of Cleveland, who is Taft's cousin, "that he has the bug." This caused Senator Taft to remark that the general sent word to him that the only thing that concerned him about the presidential election was his program for Europe. "He indicated," commented the Senator, "that if he had assurance of a reason- OBLONG VIEWS FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD BY WALDO HUNTER HERE WAS A TIME when the United States Senate was really called "the most dignified deliberative body in the world," was in the days before it was cheapened by certain pompous rerun skites and long-winded opportunists who by book or by crook gled, hoodwinked, hypnotized, persuaded or suckered the electors of their respective states to send them pell-mell and helter-roth to the Hall of State where they now ring fathers with hollow oratory roll the resounding phrases befuddlement of all and the motion of none. This sounds too harsh, reber that I am merely fall-ow line with the popular hapless man in the White House? The real executive brains in this country will have no part of it. Despite the honor of the office, they refuse to subject themselves to the killing pace of the jihadist movement. "I understand," remarked Dave Ingalls of Cleveland, who is Taft's cousin, "that he has the bug." This caused Senator Taft to remark that the general sent word to him that the only thing that concerned him about the presidential election was his program for Europe. "He indicated," commented the Senator, "that if he had assurance of a reasonable degree of independence in forming policies for the defense of Western Europe, he would not interfere in the campaign and election." Smear Campaign Starts Senator Taft probably doesn't know this, but some of his cohorts already have launched the smear-Eisenhower campaign hinted at by Ben Tate. First attempt to scare the general out of the presidential primaries came from Westbrook Pegler last week when he reported Ike's alleged filtration with an English Wae during the war, and warned that President Truman would use this to wipe up the general if he got into the presidential race. Actually, certain Republicans, not Truman, are more likely to use this against Eisenhower. In fact, they've already started. It happens that Truman and Eisenhower not only are friends, but Truman was deeply grateful to like for staying out of the 1948 race when Ike could have had the Democratic nomination for the asking, but when Truman wanted it more than anything else in this world. So if Eisenhower really wants to run this time it's a fairly good bet that Truman won't. Meanwhile, the Westbrook Peglers and other smear-Eisenhower artists might look up the below-the-belt tactics used against Grover Cleveland. They elected him. Boyle Partner It was Maine's courageous Sen. Margaret Chase Smith who first asked the Hoey committee to investigate a key associate of Democratic ex-chairman Bill Boyle. In a Senate speech she said: "I situdes of civilian life. He got a the hapless man in the White House? The real executive brains in this country will have no part of it. Despite the honor of the office, they refuse to subject themselves to the killing pace of the "big job," and expose their families to the scandal mongers, and the character assassins. That is the reason why, when presidential election time rolls around, we ask the old question: "why can't we find some good men for the White House?" BUT TO GET back to the Senators. From the actions and the antics of some, it is no wonder that the Senate has lost its once-proud title as "the most dignified deliberative body in the world." As a case in point I give you Senator Homer Capehart of Indiana who recently brought pressure to bear on the Defense Department to destroy 500,000 copies of a comic booklet produced by cartoonist George Baker, creator of the character "Sad Sack," beknown and beloved by all members of the Armed Forces since the onset of World War II, and by countless civilians. Mr. Baker, a humorist and satirist of the first order, was commissioned by the Defense Department to do a booklet to help the current recruiting drive. Baker unlimbered his pen and came up with a series of comic strips in booklet form showing good old Sad Sack encountering the vicissitudes of civilian life. He got a job after taxes, deductions, etc., his first civilian paycheck was reduced to a lone nickel. Even that turned out to be counterfeit. So, Sad Sack rejoined the army. Senator Capehart was quoted as declaring that this "looks to me like Socialistic propaganda aimed at discrediting American industry." Under pressure from the notary Senator, the Defense Department meekly destroyed the "offending" booklets. Cartoonist Baker is not the only one to fall under the guns of the dignified Senators. Al Capp, creator of "Lil Abner," one of the best all-around comic strips of the age, was severely censured by members of the Senate because he made fun of them by way of a character in his strip called "Senator Phogbound." By their reactions to good-natured needling, it can only be assumed that Cartoonist Capp was hitting home, and that it hurt. I don't like to see Twentieth Century book burgings. Once we reach the stage where we are too stuffy and too pompous and too "dignified" to be kidded, we have lost our sense of humor, and when we have lost that, we are done. suggest that the subcommittee call Mr. Daniel J. Hanlon and ask him if he was in any way connected with the legal controversy with the government over the American President line. Information in Senate committee files indicates that when the Commerce Department ruled against turning the American President line back to Dollar, Hanlon was hired to represent him in Washington. The port city of St. Malo, France is a 65-acre granite island. Hanlon, a former law partner of Boyle, was listed as an assistant to him in the Democratic campaign of 1948.
