King George in Annual Speech
LONDON (P)—King George VI, announcing the Conservative party's policy in a traditional speech from the throne, declared today Britain's defense program is threatened by inflation.
Speaking for the party in power—Winston Churchill's, Tories—the king said the problem of inflation overshadows all others facing the new government. Prime Minister Churchill will make proposals to tackle the problem "in the immediate future," the monarch said in the address which opened the first formal session of the new parliament.
He sketched a Conservative party program retaining some of the emergency economic and defense measures which otherwise would expire next month. But the Conservatives will propose a bill annulling Labor's nationalization of the iron and steel industry. The speech indicated retention of some of the Labor government's social services, including the free health plan, and promised to strive for efficient administration of it.
The king's speech was prepared for him by Churchill and the Conservative cabinet, and thus is, in effect, the Conservative party program.

This fear was expressed today in a statement by the lemon growers section of the Calif. Citrus Production assn., and released by Norman Hixson, asst. secy., of Alta Loma, Calif.
"Sunkist's price cutting of orange concentrate is, in effect, tweaking the noses of some of Sunkist's biggest buyers of California lemonade... the very customers who last year bought over 60 per cent of Sunkist's lemonade pack," said Mr. Hixson.
Already blasted by orange growers, Sunkist is now incurring the wrath of the lemon growers, many of whom agree with Mr. Hixson. He pointed out that Sunkist may lose its leaderspacker of lemonade if tomers shift to new sources.
“五 other California concentrate plants are bidding for Sunkist's two customers. Minute Me Snowcrop,” says Mr.
“These are the companies who up to now have been klist's best wholesale juilmers, but which are be held mauled by the Sunkist plant on orange concentrate, blame these companies wanting to shake Sunkist hand when the left hand bring them in the back.”
At Sunkist's present price, orange growers are less than the cost of the according to Mr. Hixson.
Now, to top it all, they have it that leading concord who buy lemonade in three quantities from Sunkist ing new sources. This is straw, in the opinioh of son and other growers.

Now Lemon at Price Cuts
kist may lose its leadership as a packer of lemonade if big customers shift to new supply sources.
"Five other California lemonade concentrate plants are already bidding for Sunkist's two main customers. Minute Maid and Snowcrop," says Mr. Hixson.
These are the companies who up to now have been Sunkist's best wholesale juice customers, but which are being badly mauled by the Sunkist price cuts on orange concentrate. I can't blame these companies for not wanting to shake Sunkist's right hand when the left hand is stabbing them in the back."
At Sunkist's present concentrate price, orange growers are getting less than the cost of their fruit, according to Mr. Hixson.
Now, to top it all, the rumors have it that leading concentrators who buy lemonade in tremendous quantities from Sunkist are seeking new sources. This is the last straw, in the opinioh of Mr. Hixson and other growers.

Planning Commission Disposes Lengthy Agenda in Record Time
Anaheim Planning commission yesterday disposed of a full agenda of business in the record-breaking time of 2½ hours under the chairmanship of Commissioner Ralph Sommers.
J. H. Mulvey's application for a variance to build a motel at 1236 E. Center st., was denied by the commissioners. The variance had been held over from the Oct. 1 meeting, at which time residents of the area protested against the proposed motel. Mulvey will probably appeal the decision to the city council.
Variance Denied
Reinhold and Alvina Jeschke's application for a variance to use their residence at 204 E.

Truman States Ike's Reason For Journey
WASHINGTON (P) — President Truman said today the reason for Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's visit here was to discuss Europe's problem of maintaining economic stability while rearming. And, he declared, he fears "much trouble."
Mr. Truman's statement of why he called Eisenhower home came shortly before the general left by plane to return to his European defense command in France.
The president made it in an extemporaneous speech to the National Society of Cartoonists. He left many questions unanswered by running through his talk with the hint of a developing new crisis for the western world.
It came against the background of the new British government's expressed concern—voiced in the king's address to parliament—over the deterioration of Britain's economic affairs and the threat of inflation.

The French president did not mention Prime Minister Stalin, Prime Minister Churchill or President Truman by name, but referred to them as the "distinguished men towards whom all anxious eyes are turned." He added he was sure that a meeting of the three in private and within the scope of the U.N. could make progress at easing tensions.

Marines Jailed after 100 MPH Chase
Said to have driven through the city of San Clemente during last night's heavy fog at a speed of more than 100 miles per hour, two Camp Pendleton Marines were apprehended by Santa Ana police after a warning was radioed ahead by San Clemente officers.
Sgt. Harry F. Dietrich, 24, was at the wheel of the car registered to T/Sgt. Eugene A. Ezell, 28, who was a passenger when Santa Ana police halted them in the 700 block of E. First st.

Reds Want to Call Talks Off
MUNSAN, Korea (P) — The United Nations command spokesman said today the reds want to call off the fighting in Korea without signing a formal armistice.
The U.N., he said will have none of that.
Brig. Gen. William P. Nuckols, the spokesman, told newsmen the reds tipped their hands Tuesday when they rejected the latest Allied proposal. That was an offer Monday to set aside the stalemated cease-fire buffer zone issue for the moment and take up other items that must be settled before a formal armistice can be signed.
The reds demanded, Nuckols said, immediate "final, formal solution" of the buffer zone matter before proceeding to the rest of the agenda.
Nuckols said this would in effect allow a de facto cease-fire—an end to the fighting without formal agreement—and let armistice talks drag on indefinitely.

Outlook in Sanitation District Deadlock More Hopeful Following Publishers' Meeting with Warner
Orange county newspaper publishers may have cracked the four-year stalemate in the county sewerage program at their meeting last evening with Willis H. Warner, chairman of the county supervisors and also chairman of Sanitation District 11, Huntington Beach, which recently blocked sale of the $8,308,000 sewer bond issue by refusing to approve the sewerage plan all other districts wanted.
Disclosure that several clauses in an agreement by which the sanitation districts would purchase the existing facilities of the Joint Outfall Sewer System, operated by eight cities and sanitary districts, was basis of the real objection of District 11 to approval of the Bacon or "bond issue" plan, brought an immediate decision to seek revision of the agreement from the JOS owners.
If such a revision is obtained, Warner said he would ask his fellow directors of District 11 to approve the Bacon plan, so that the sanitation districts could proceed with sale of their bonds and start construction of the new system.
City Councilman J. L. McBride of Santa Ana, a director of Sanitation Districts 1 and 7, brought the prospective solution into the open when he proposed to Warner that if the agreement of the JOS to desired revision of the purchase agreement could be obtained by the time of the next sanitation board meeting, Nov. 14, District 11 would join the other districts in approving the Bacon plan.
Atom Masters End First Phase of Explosive Tests
LAS VEGAS (AP) — America's atom masters have developed an assortment of bombs of staggered sizes and staggering reactions that may in time make conventional weapons obsolete.
Awed observers were unable to make any other conclusion as the first phase of the atomic energy commission's fall test series at Yucca Flat came to a smashing finale yesterday with a full scale A-bomb explosion.
Test manager Carroll L. Tyler and scientific chief Alvin C. Graves were not fooling when they said the series would include "a number of experiments." No two blasts in the set of five just finished appeared identical—and the last one topped them all.
It seemed to have all the attributes of previous major A-bombs, including a flash and fireball that persisted 10 seconds. The fireball culminated in a tower of flame hundreds of feet high—something for which this reporter could find no precedent in previous atomic accounts.
