VOLUME LXXXI Anaheim's FIRST Newspaper ANAHE UEGES STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION—Britain's Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden addresses the United Nations sixth general assembly in Paris, calling on the Russians to put aside major world issues temporarily and seek a step-by-step solution to the cold war. It was Eden's first speech in the U.N. since the founding conference at San Francisco in 1945, and was notable for its mild tone and lack of attacks on the Russian side.

Bailey, 65, 10652 S. Plower st., Stanton, and seriously injuring the woman driver, Helen L. Williams, 28, of the same address. The car, traveling north, left the pavement at the "S" curve City Council Disposes of Full Agenda Anaheim city council labored long last night over a full agenda of business, main item of which probably was the consideration at length of a new subdivision ordinance. According to City Administrator Keith Murdoch, the new ordinance will plug some loopholes in the old ordinance which allowed subdivision of property by metes and bounds without compliance with the improvements regulations imposed on regular subdivisions. For instance, he said, in the past, property divisions and sales have been made in violation of the spirit of the State Subdivision law without installing gutter where the highway is being straightened, and crashed against a large tree. The car telescoped and landed bottom side up, its seat cushions thrown out on the pavement. Bailey was killed instantly. Mrs. Williams received head injuries, a broken jaw, internal hurts and numerous lacerations. She was taken to Anaheim Community hospital. Bailey's body is at Honold Bros. mortuary in Garden Grove. Duplicates Sunday Crash Mrs. Bernadine Siracusa, 33, of Whittier, was killed, and her husband, Louis Siracusa, 35, seriously injured at the same curve at 4 a.m. Sunday when their car leaped more than 40 feet into a field and threw them more than 100 feet farther. Douglas R. Kennedy, of Sherman Oaks, was severely injured at 9:35 p.m. yesterday when his car struck the rear end of a truck and trailer driven by Kenneth A. Benedict, 26, Norwalk, and turned over on Manchester blvd., a quarter-mile east of Grand ave., in Buena Park. Kennedy was pinned beneath the wreckage, which blocked traffic for nearly an hour. Car Overturns Alfred A. Park, 41, San Pedro, received minor injuries at 9 p.m. when a car driven by Mrs. Pauline Reid, 34, Long Beach, turned over while descending Skyline Drive on Lemon Heights north of Tustin. He was taken to Santa Ana Community hospital. St. Boniface Groups Honor New Pastor With Judge John Shea as master of ceremonies, all organization of St. Boniface parish honorors their new pastor, Father F. Patrick Pierce, at a dinner in the parish hall last night. More than 300 persons attended the reception, arranged tor Keith Murdoch, the new ordinance will plug some loopholes in the old ordinance which allowed subdivision of property by metes and bounds without compliance with the improvements regulations imposed on regular subdivisions. For instance, he said, in the past, property divisions and sales have been made in violation of the spirit of the State Subdivision law without installing gutters, curbs or other improvements ordinarily required of a subdivider. The new subdivision law was presented, with a recommendation for approval, by the planning commission last week. Zoning Changes Recommended The city's zoning ordinance also came in for some revamping last night. Principal change contemplated is that to correct the setback provision when R-3 installations are made in an R-1 zone. An apartment building nearing completion at North and Lemon sts. was set back from the street only 15 feet, whereas single family dwellings in the same area are required to have a 25-foot setback. The proposed change will require multiple dwellings to conform with the single-family setback requirement, and will prevent a recurrence of the situation at North and Lemon sts. A resolution was approved accepting Section 1 of the Magnolia Trunk Sewer on recommendation of Koebig and Koebig, engineers. Annexations Approved The council authorized advertisement of intention to annex the Acacia st.

EARL WARREN (Announces Candidacy) Fire Starts In Wreck of U.P. Trains EVANSTON, Wyo. (P)—Fire broke out in the wreckage of two trains this morning, further hampering the resuce workers. Sixteen bodies had been recovered, and one man still was missing. Arthur G. Bloom, Union Pacific passenger agent at Salt Lake City, said butane, used in the trains' air conditioning systems, was spilled over the wreckage by the collision and had been a constant fire hazard during rescue operations. This morning the butane was ignited, apparently by sparks CAMPBELL HILL, Ill. DAMAGE—An uprooted home after a tornado desof this town yesterday aftr Violent El GOV. EARL WARREN (Announces Candidacy) SACRAMENTO (P) — Republican Governor Earl Warren of California entered the 1952 presidential race today. The 60 year old Warren, his party's candidate for vice-president in 1948, announced his decision to seek the GOP presidential nomination in a 400 word statement which asserted: “There must, for the welfare of our country, be a change in national administration, but if this is to be, the Republican party must present a definite constructive and workable program for the nation. "We can not hope to win solely on the mistakes of the present, 20 year administration, many though they are.” The third term governor agreed to head a favorite son ticket of national convention, delegates in California's primaries next June. “I am giving thought to what extent I shall urge my candidacy in other states before the convention,” he said in the statement he read slowly to newmen. He said he will make a decision on that score “in proper season.” A rival Republican faction hopes to field an uninstructed slate in California, but Warren—tagged as the strongest dark horse by Senator Richard Nixon (R-Calif)—already has the pledged support of most of the state party leaders. The 6-foot-1 Californian, who has campaigned in the state as a Progressive, thus became the second presidential prospect of either party to declare himself. Senator Robert A. Taft (R-Ohio) announced first—just about a month ago. He and Warren have differed politically at times. Action Taken to Arthur G. Bloom, Union Pacific passenger agent at Salt Lake City, said butane, used in the trains' air conditioning systems, was spilled over the wreckage by the collision and had been a constant fire hazard during rescue operations. This morning the butane was ignited, apparently by sparks from metal being dragged over the rocks and steel. Flames roared over some of the wreckage but were extinguished by firemen from Evanston. Only a small area was burned over. Union Pacific railroad authorities said they believed the death toll would be 17. They have been unable to find a trace of Dr. Robert Thomson of Fitchburg, Mass. Friends who survived said they were sure he was aboard the train. The missing man's wife remained in a hospital here, one of the two most critically hurt. The other was the fireman aboard the locomotive of the streamliner City of San Francisco. Judge Restores Faith in Judges James H. Earley, Elsinore, got a surprise yesterday when he found that judges are just as human as the next man. Earley was brought before Anaheim Judge L. P. Bonnat for sentencing on a drunk driving charge yesterday. He pleaded guilty and expected to get the book thrown at him. Instead Judge Bonnat delayed the sentence until December, at which time Earley will be honorably discharged from the army with a clean slate. But, 72 hours after the discharge comes through, Earley has to make another appearance in court to receive his sentence. NEW YORK (F)—Mothers can feel sure “their girls will be safe and welcome in the Armed Services,” says assistant defense secretary Anna Rosenberg.

Action Taken to Clear Site for Civic Center County supervisors yesterday ordered notices issued and advertised of the county's intention to purchase two private properties at 826 and 822 N. Broadway, opposite the old courthouse group, for annexation to the proposed county civic center. The purchase price, under an option obtained two years ago, when the building at 826 was leased by the county, will be $65,000. Dr. K. A. Loerch, owner of the properties, occupies one of the buildings with his offices. He will retain the two buildings and move them off the property within 90 days after expiration of the lease, next Feb. 29. The board took no action on a suggestion by Supervisor C. M. Featherly that an appraisal be made of the First Christian church property, extending from Broadway to Birch streets at Sixth st. It was learned that the appraisal would cost $450. The church property has been considered as a future Santa Ana city hall site. Reds Challenge UN to Agree To Line or Break Off Tall MUNSAN, Korea (UP)—Commuist negotiators challenged the Allies today to agree to a cease-fire line in Korea now or break off the truce talks. Brig. Gen. William P. Nuckols, official U. N. spokesman, said the challenge was ignored in a welter of words that marked today's five hour and five minute armistice session. He said the challenge was made by Chinese Maj. Gen. Hsieh Fang, member of the reds' two-man subcommittee. Hsieh's challenge came during a wrangle over whether a military demarcation line and buffer zone shall be established now, as the reds insist, or whether the ques- tion shall be postponed until o armistice questions are settle. The Allies refuse to agree mally to a line now, because they say that would establish an mediate cease-fire. This, in they say, would take mil- pressure off the reds and en them to stall on other armistice terms. Meanwhile, Allied warplanes day swept North Korean without challenge and dealt blows to the crippled communi rail system. Far East Air Forces said light bombers destroyed eight comotives in pre-dawn raids. Others were reported destroying the 24 hours ended at midnite Tuesday.

(Associated Press Wirephoto) A series of tornadoes and violent electrical and wind storms struck damaging blows across wide areas of the mid-continent yesterday. The twisters killed at least one person and injured seven others. Property damage was expected to run in hundreds of thousands of dollars. The mid-November storms lashed most of the Midwest. Heavy rain hit many areas. Winds of 100 miles an hour whipped across communities in the path of the tornadoes which struck in Illinois, Missouri, Indiana and Kentucky. Weather bureau forecasters attributed the severe storms to the clash of cold air against the warm southern air which had extended over the Midwest the last few days. Scores of homes were damaged. Communications were disrupted, trees uprooted and traffic slowed in many cities and towns in the path of the destructive gales and electrical storms. The Federal Weather Bureau at Chicago said at least two or three tornadoes struck in Illinois. Winds reached 100 miles an hour velocity in some areas. The large intense storm centered in northern Wisconsin last night. It brought showers and thunderstorms from the southern Great Lakes region southward through the lower Ohio valley to the middle Mississippi valley. There was heavy rainfall in the northern Great Lakes region which changed to snow over the northern plains states and parts of the north central region. Up to six inches of wet snow covered southern Minnesota, making traffic hazardous. Many telephone lines snapped as the heavy flakes froze to the wires and felled poles. People Parade in Mourning Over 20 Killed by British CAIRO (F)—A human sea of a million more persons paraded in stolid silence through the streets of Cairo today in a giant Anti-British demonstration, and then folded their bellicose banners and dispersed peacefully. Egyptian police officials said more than a million marched in the demonstration. Each successive group dispersed quietly in Abdin Square to make room for the streams of others taking part in this day of mourning for 20 Egyptians killed in the past month in clashes with the British during the Suez Canal dispute. The newspaper Al Zaman estimated 2.5 million marched and termed the parade the biggest demonstration in Egypt's history. Throughout it all, the marchers were orderly. The only noise was a buzz of talk. There was no shouting, no outcry even when several persons fainted in the crush. The parade weaved by hundreds of thousands of spectators through the streets to King Farouk's Abdin palace. Supervisors Ask Broadcasters Supervisors Ask Broader Smog Law Amendments to the county ordinance regulating smog control procedure, to include industrial plants as well as orchard heaters, were ordered by the county supervisors yesterday. County Counsel Joel Ogle being instructed to prepare the amendments. Action was taken at the urging of Agricultural Commissioner D. W. Tubbs, named air pollution control officer when the ordinance was adopted last year. Recent heavy movement of industries into Orange county made it advisable to consider whether the ordinance should be broadened, Tubbs pointed out. While the original ordinance contained clauses that would cover industrial plants, these regulations were never activated. Ogle told the board it would be necessary to hold another public hearing if these regulations are put into effect. NEW YORK (UP)—Some 332,000 civil defense workers in the nation's largest city will be called out in a test drill tonight when two imaginary atomic "bombs" hit the city. Agents Assigned To Investigate Alcohol Tax WASHINGTON (UP) — Internal Revenue Commissioner John B. Dunlap announced today he has assigned outside agents to investigate reported "irregularities" in the Revenue Bureau's alcohol tax unit. Dunlap said a special inquiry will be conducted by secret service and narcotics agents under the direction of M. L. Harney, assistant commissioner of the Bureau of Narcotics. The commissioner said the survey is designed to correct "any situations which may give rise to irregularities" and to recommend "the reassignment of supervisory personnel where such action will promote the efficiency of the service." In response to questions at a news conference, Dunlap also said one aim would be to eliminate "hoodlums and racketeers" from the liquor industry."
