MELLEN Advisant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager DON VOUNG Circulation Manager Sparks in education... If Lieutenant Governor Goodwin J. Knight's recent comments concerning Dr. Roy E. Simpson, state superintendent of public instruction, do nothing else, they may spark-plug a battle for the educational post at the 1954 elections. The lieutenant governor, in a letter to a resident of San Diego, said "it is unfortunate that here in California we should have a man at the head of our educational system who has publicly opposed a loyalty oath for teachers, and who has permitted un-American books to be used in our schools." Knight said specifically he was referring to Simpson, and thus set in motion the fireworks which no doubt are destined to result in a reference to his statements regarding Simpson. At the time the loyalty oath was in question, Governor Warren opposed it on the ground it was unnecessary in view of the oath all public employees were required to take. Meanwhile, the state legislature passed a bill requiring a loyalty oath, which the governor signed. Knight also had reference to what he termed Simpson's support of the "Building America" series of text-books, state printing of which was banned by the legislature some years ago. When Simpson heard about the Knight letter, he said he was "surprised the lieutenant governor would adopt the same type of tactics used by my communist oppo- WASHINGTON — Harry Truman has over General Eisenhower for president was fled by a conversation with some of his visers in June 1948 was on to draft Elseme Democratic ticket.

The lieutenant governor was not bashful in his comment either, for he frankly told his Sim Diego correspondent that "you can assist in restoring sound American principles by helping to relieve Mr. Simpson of his job when he comes up for re-election." The spectacle of one Constitutional officer making a direct attack on another, while it is not too unusual, has not occurred in California politics for good many years, and the Knight outburst caused some eye-brow lifting in Californian circles. One comment was to the effect that the lieutenant governor might just as well applied half of his attack to Governor Warren, for the state's chief executive was among those who opposed requirement of the loyalty oath by the University of California regent, and that requirement, Knight said, was what he had referred to a brief wedding trip. L. C. Blake, wife and child, are here from Oxnard, visiting with relatives and friends. Announcement is made of the first meeting of the Orange County Teachers Association. J. P. Greely, county superintendent of schools, and J. B. Nichols, president of the association, have issued the program of exercises. The meeting is called for Nov. 9. Knight also had reference to what he termed Simpson's support of the "Building America" series of text-books, state printing of which was banned by the legislature some years ago. When Simpson heard about the Knight letter, he said he was "surprised the lieutenant governor would adopt the same type of tactics used by my communist opponent at the last election." Simpson referred to Bernadette Doyle, who received a heavy vote for Simpson's office, despite the fact evidence proclaimed her affiliation with the left-wingers. Some observers pointed out that if Knight really wanted to make a case against Simpson, he should have chosen some issue other than the so-called "liberalism" of the state superintendent of public instruction. It was also suggested he would have little trouble looking for another issue, nor would an issue be hard to find. And on the other hand, comment was to the effect that Knight and little cause to bring the matter up at all, in view of the fact that as a Constitutional officer, his office of lieutenant governor has little if anything to do with the state Department of Education. It also was felt to be somewhat early to be building up opponents for incumbents in view of the fact that the next general election is not until 1954.

District Deputy Mrs. Flora Crawford will pay her official visit to Lois Lodge. All visiting Rebekahs cordially invited to attend. The second annual convention of the Republican Women's Federation, Northern Division, was held in San Bernardino Saturday, Mrs. Florence Collins Porter presiding. Business of the convention occupied the morning session with Burton Pitta addressing the meeting before luncheon. Hon. Herbert Hoover was the guest of honor at the luncheon and addressed several thousand people at the afternoon session held in the municipal auditorium. Attending from Anaheim were Mesdames G. N. Fording, H. N. White, Verna Miller, Wendling and Nellie E. Ferry. But he added that worried by Republic mentions that they had a like was available for nomination; and he both the United States Allies should know who was running the North Pact or running for prosecution. Truman suggested that we not compatible any erry move the general Paris would become issue back home if people was a candidate. Ike As A Democrat However if Eisenhower wanted to be president told George Allen that he much more at honoring Democratic party than Republicans. In that president indicated that not have to run openly; be "summoned" to the pact In fact, Truman even he might like to make nating speech himself. The president then that George Allen fly and have a heart-to-hair with Elsehower. Allen suggested that Mr. T write a friendly note in handwriting, summarizing views. George Allen delivered in Paris, and when he reported at the White House Eisenhower would not North Atlantic Pact in future to run for preside that since the NATO be completed by next WASHINGTON — How worried Harry Truman has always been over General Eisenhower's running for president was first indicated by a conversation which Truman had with some of his closest advisers in June 1948 when a move was on to draft Eisenhower on the Democratic ticket. The conference took place on the newly built $15,000 White House "back porch," then under Republican fire, and the most important advisor present was White House Jester George Allen, who happened to be a good friend both of the president and General Eisenhower. Truman was worried sick over the prospect of Ike's running, and he made little attempt to disguise his worry from those sitting with him in the coul of the June evening. He knew, from political soundings throughout the country, that Ike could take the Democratic convention easily if he announced. Such assorted democratic leaders as Jimmy Roosevelt in California, Mayor Hague in Jersey City, Senator Olin Johnson of South Carolina, Senator-to-be Paul Douglas in Chicago, Carl Rice of Kansas and Mayor O'Dwyer in New York had made their views all too clear. So Mr. Truman, determined not to be a political "accident" and determined to vindicate himself at the polls, stewed mentally over means of taking Eisenhower out of the race. George Allen was optimistic. He OBLONG VIEWS FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD BY WALDO HUNTER IF AN OLD SCORPION may be permitted to crawl out of the woodwork and make a few remarks... From time to time it has been this column's practice to comment on the mechanics of newspaper production in an effort to show the reader what goes on down at the plant.. Discussed under this heading have been the gathering, processing and printing of news, the writing of headlines, the steps necessary to "start from scratch" at 7 amm. and lay a newspaper on your doorstep (or at least out under the hydrangia bushes) by 5 p.m., the cause-and-effect of the inevitable typographical error, and other facets of the interesting business of newspaper work. Today I should like to discuss that often perplexing but eminently useful little thing which in newspaper parlance is called the "filler." Fillers are those brief two-or three-or four-line items which you see sprinkled throughout the paper for no apparent reason, often giving you information which you already know and more often enlightening you about some fact which you didn't want to be told about in the first place. These "fillers" actually have no excuse for being, other than that they help fill up little holes in the page. There can be no gaps in the columns, for then it would be impossible to "lock up" the form and put it on the press. The Gazette's columns are 20 inches long, and due to the mathematical exactitude which printing demands, they can be not one fraction of an inch longer or shorter than that. When the type is placed into the form there may be a gap of an inch, a half inch, or an inch and a half at the end. This must be filled, and here the printer relies on his trusty "filler." I have often wondered what the newspaper reader thinks when he gets to the end of a story telling of a projected program for new county roads only to see a statement like this: The purple-beaked whifflebat often builds nests out of shredded coconut husks in the French Cameroun. Probably momentarily jarred by this intelligence, the reader then peruses an article describing the latest manifestation of labor-management relations only to have his thought process disrupted at the end of it by: "Beans should never be baked in a tin pan." The makeup man, as he hurries to prepare his page for the press, has at his disposal hundreds of these little items to dig into for the edification of the reading health of you only as good as utensils, and these are the factors which whether or not you for your food dollar makers consider a modern refrigerator essential and spend have them.

EQUIPMENT DEMO North Atlantic Pact one of the most important cornerstones for world peace, and that Eisenhower's leadership was essential to it. In fact, he praised Eisenhower as one of the most constructive forces in Europe. But he added that he was worried by Republican statements that they had assurances Ike was available for the GOP nomination; and he felt that both the United States and our Allies should know whether Ike was running the North Atlantic Pact or running for president. Truman suggested that the two were not compatible and that every move the general made in Paris would become a political issue back home if people felt he was a candidate. Ike As A Democrat However if Eisenhower really wanted to be president, Truman told George Allen that he would be much more at home in the Democratic party than with the Republicans. In that event, the president indicated that he would not have to run openly, but could be "summoned" to the presidency. In fact, Truman even hinted that he might like to make the nominating speech himself. The president then suggested that George Allen fly to Paris and have a heart-to-heart talk with Eisenhower. Allen in turn suggested that Mr. Truman write a friendly note in his own handwriting, summarizing his views. George Allen delivered the note in Paris, and when he returned, reported at the White House that Eisenhower would not quit the North Atlantic Pact in the near future to run for president; but that since the NATO job would be completed by next spring, he would have plenty of time to decide whether he was interested in politics. In any event, Eisenhower definitely promised to talk to Truman before he did anything. Eisenhower-Merry-Go-Round Since the Vatican appointment, many political observers are swinging round to the view that Truman does not want to run for a third term ... This observer has always said that Truman did not want to run—unless Taft was the GOP candidate, in which case he would be sorely tempted. Truman's first choice to be Democratic nominee long has been Chief Justice Vinson, a man with a wealth of executive experience ... While Truman and friends were convinced Ike would not run in 1948, a group of Democratic leaders, led by Jack Arvey of Chicago, were equally convinced he would. Arvey kept assuring Jimmy Roosevelt, Senator Tydings and others that he had "the word," but no one ever knew where he got the word. The word, however, came from Morton Downey, who parlayed "When Irish Eyes Are Sitting" into a close friendship with Democratic leaders and a directorship in General Anline and Film. Morton, who golfed frequently with Eisenhower, at the Westchester Country club, gave "the word" to Arvey at the Blackstone hotel in Chicago where Morton was singing. And that was the thread on which the great Eisenhower boom of 1948 hung. Peruses an article describing the latest manifestation of labor-management relations only to have his thought process disrupted at the end of it by: "Beans should never be baked in a tinn pan." The makeup man, as he hurries to prepare his page for the press, has at his disposal hundreds of these little items to dig into for the cidification of the reading masses, and he rarely looks at them to judge whether they would be more suitable on the sports page, the society page, or the editorial page. If they will fit into the hole, that's all. It is because of this that you may see this unusual bit of advice following the account of a wedding: "To make a rusty bolt fit better, soak it in kerosene overnight." I have at hand a current copy of the Santa Ana paper which, among other things, tells me that: "The Mount Cenis tunnel from Italy to France under Col. de Frejus is eight miles long." "The capital of Guatamala is Guatamala City." "Greenland's largest export, icebergs, hit a new low this year." "Wet weather tones down the fall color brilliance in trees." So what? I say, what does this make the price of turtle eggs in Lower Sloboba? An English friar, Roger Bacon, and a German monk, Berthold Schwartz, both living in the 14th Century, have both been credited with the accidental discovery of gunpowder.

DANSON HOLLYWOOD — The top idea man in this area (and his bank book can prove it), John Guedel, producer of 10 const-to-coast half hour broadcasts and television shows every week, gave me some exclusive reports on his most recent idea. "I'm in the business of getting ideas," John told me, "and have been for the last 13 years. It seems that what needs ideas most now days in our country, is the combatting of Communism, and I've got an idea for that." Guedel has owned a word—"Freepower," which he says is, "an umbrella word that even kids on school grounds can use and understand." Just what is it? Well, "Freepower" is a vigorous and exciting new word for "Capitalism." The word "capitalism" has been lampooned and distorted by the enemies of Democracy—usually represented by a greedy fat man chewing on a gold toothpick. The word "Freepower" combines two basic and stirring concepts: Freedom and strength. "Power" represents strength — in religion, industry, education and government, and when coupled with the word "Free," it represents the right kind of strength. John says: "Words are weapons, and our enemies have used them artfully. They've made 'Communism vs. Capitalism' sound pretty sincere, but take 'Communism vs. Freepower'—well, just let them try to sell that!" Next month Guedel will leave for Washington, D.C., where he has been appointed official consultant for the State Department's Information and Education Division on a dollar-a-year basis. He plans in the very near future to introduce the word during his varied radio and television shows, with the word being injected into a newly prepared Groucho Marx series, done in French, Italian, Spanish and German for "Voices of America" release. John is only vice president of John Guedel Radio and Television products. There is no president! Everyone in the organization has been appointed vice president, including script girls, bookkeeper and switchboard operator. A few of his ideas that are paying off include "People Are Funny," "House Party," "Life With Linkletter," the Groucho Marx, "You Bet Your Life" and with Ozzie Nelson he developed "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet." DOWN TV-RADIO ROW ... Happy to report that after my story about blood last week, one of the largest of the networks is Home-Makers' Forum By JOAN B. WHITE Gazette Home Ecobook The health of your family is only as good as your cooking utensils, and these same utensils are the factors which determine whether or not you get full value for your food dollar. Most home-makers consider a good stove and a modern refrigerator absolutely essential and spend large sums to have them. These same home-makers are then content to get along with inadequate small equipment which contribute to the waste of nutritional essentials as well as time spent in the kitchen. The housewife who fails to purchase utensils with tight fitting lids probably boils her vegetables in plenty of water and then perhaps drains some of the cooking water down the sink. This harmless looking and common method tosses out more than half of the minerals and vitamin C and a good many of the B vitamins. Copper destroys vitamin C the minute it comes in contact with it, yet how many women continue to use an enamel pan that has a chip or two. Copper is one of the elements in the metal which the enamel coats. If she prepares foods containing vitamin B-2 or riboflavin, in glass utensils admitting light which quickly destroys this vitamin during cooking, she can produce disturbances of the eye. EQUIPMENT DEMONSTRATION prevent burns, non-slip handles, and the entire utensil may be used in the oven. Farberware will last a lifetime. See it in action at Mitchell's on Wednesday. THOSE ENERGETIC PRESBYTERIANS The Presbyterian Bazaar held at the Ebell club last Friday was an outstanding success. If you were not one of the more than 200 Anaheimers who lunched there on home-baked foods, you really missed something. Mrs. Harold Botts and Mrs. O. E. Eager, co-chairmen of the event, stopped work long enough to point out to us four kinds of sandwiches, all sorts of luscious looking salads and six kinds of pie. The filling of the hot mince pie was made at home by Mrs. F. E. Spencer and Mrs. F. B. Morley. Home-made mince meat — good idea for Christmas. And speaking of Christmas gifts, the bazaar booths were chock full of them, or were early in the day. The aprons made by Mrs. Richardson and Mrs. Cassie Wethered were works of art. Mrs. Warren Hodges and Mrs. Ben Heyling contributed a whole table of hand knit baby garments. Ceramics, dolls, "white elephants," plants, quilts, and a host of other items went like the proverbial hot cakes. We were attracted, as usual, to the table of home baked goods—cookies, cakes, pies, and candies. A few of his ideas that are paying off include "People Are Funny," "House Party," "Life With Linkletter," the Groucho Marx, "You Bet Your Life" and with Ozzie Nelson he developed "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet." DOWN TV-RADIO ROW ... Hoppy to report that after my story about blood last week, one of the largest of the networks is planning to do a coast-to-coast radio-television marathon for blood donor pledges in the very near future. The story, as you will recall, asked for just such a program. TELE-TIPS ... Facsimiles of the 28 Freedom Shrine Documents will be shown on KHJ (9) tonight at 6...

If she prepares foods containing vitamin B-2 or riboflavin, in glass utensils admitting light which quickly destroys this vitamin during cooking, she can produce disturbances of the eye. EQUIPMENT DEMONSTRATION Great strides have been made in perfecting kitchen equipment. To demonstrate the possibilities of some of the newest utensils, Mitchell's of Anaheim at 239 West Center has engaged the services of a professional demonstrator who will cook with Farberwace at the store all day on Wednesday, November 7. You will actually see this new stainless steel, aluminum clad ware in action and may sample the food as it is cooked. Most everyone knows the advantages of cooking with stainless steel; easy to clean, minimum shrinkage of food, waterless cooking is possible, no injurious exposed surfaces to destroy precious food nutrients. The one disadvantage of stainless steel is that "hot spots" tend to develop which occasionally cause scorching. Farberware overcomes this with a thick layer of aluminum on the stainless steel bottoms. Aluminum spreads the heat evenly to give perfect results on any type of stove. PRIZE WINNING BEAUTY You will be delighted by the appearance of the first and only cooking ware to be awarded the Fashion Academy Gold Medal for beauty. Its design is excellent, and each of the pieces has special heat resistant knobs and handles, finger fitting grips to rons made by Mrs. Richardson and Mrs. Cassie Wethered were works of art.

Ceramics, dolls, "white elephants," plants, quilts, and a host of other items went like the proverbial hot cakes. We were attracted, as usual, to the table of home baked goods—cookies, cakes, pies, and candies of all descriptions. The type of orange jellied candies brought over by Mrs. J. J. Lumsden, home economist for the M.C.P. company of Anaheim, caused much favorable comment. Mrs. Lumsden has been conducting a national contest in connection with her work with M.C.P., the pectin product. The contest closed last Thursday and when the winning recipes are selected, Mrs. Lumsden promises to let us print the best of them. Apply for Social Security Number Now—Warning Self-employed persons should apply for their social security account number, urged Garrett W. List, manager of the Santa Ana, California social security field office. Although self-employed persons are not required to report their 1951 earnings until they file their income tax returns early in 1952, Mr. List said that every self-employed person who does not have a social security account number card should apply for one now to be certain he has the account number when the tax report is made. Applications for account numbers can be obtained from the local post office, or by an ex-Western star in line for a seat in the electric chair during "Official Detective" from KHJ at 9:30.
