WSB Official Talks at Local C of C Meet Approximately 100 persons this noon attended the general membership meeting of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce to hear Quenten Ogren of the Wage Stabilization Board discuss wage stabilization policies and procedures as they apply to Anaheim. Mr. Ogren is Los Angeles area director of the WSB. Mr. Ogren described the current controls on wages, as "not a freeze, but rather a wage policy." He then described various wage policies and their application to various employers and conditions of employment. The meeting was presided over by Adolf Schoepe, president of the local chamber, who received a solid round of applause from the membership for his activities on behalf of the chamber and the city during his presidency. General toastmaster was Clyde Kromer who introduced city officials and others present and introduced Earnest Moeller, secretary of the chamber, who traced the industrial development of Anaheim. Mr. Moeller said 1951 had been a banner year for industry in Orange county—and that Anaheim has become the leading industrial city in the county. Truman Equals Money in Bank To Merchants KEY WEST, Fla. (P)—Most Key West merchants expressed the hope today that President Truman will stay here until Christmas. He's money in the bank to them. "The president's visits have given Key West a terrific shot in the arm," Secretary Harry Laubser of the Chamber of Commerce told a reporter. Others chimed in with the opinion that Mr. Truman is the biggest business asset this town has had since it lost its major cigar business to Tampa and its major sponge business to Tarpon Springs. Mr. Truman doesn't expect to stay here until Christmas, but no one expects him to return to Washington before the middle of December. Since he flew here Nov. 8, that would make his 10th the longest of his visits here. One shoe merchant observed: "I don't go for him politically, but I have to put my politics aside when I see what he does for business in this town." John Dulles in Talk Against Red Imperialism General toastmaster was Clyde Kromer who introduced city officials and others present and introduced Earnest Moeller, secretary of the chamber, who traced the industrial development of Anaheim. Mr. Moeller said 1951 had been a banner year for industry in Orange county—and that Anaheim has become the leading industrial city in the county. Reliable estimates, Mr. Moeller said, now place the population of Anaheim at 16,500 persons. R. D. Taylor, chairman of the Anaheim Area Industrial Group, introduced the members of the executive committee of the organization. Dick Gay, vice president of the chamber and chairman of the membership committee, introduced the new members of the chamber present. Not Ants, Radium In Major's Pants It wasn't ants in his pants that brought Robert H. Williams, retired army major, to Santa Ana police station yesterday. It was radium, he thinks. Williams, who has an office at 801 Spurgeon st., Santa Ana, and has been bitterly opposing communism and the Jewish Anti-Defamation League, told police of his long fight against the reds. He was sure that a communist agent had sprinkled radium on the seat of his office chair, causing him to have stomach disorders, he stated. He asked if he had a geiger counter and would come and inspect his office furniture. Many Rumanians had told him that sprinkling radium on the chair was a popular method of dispatching unwanted personalities in their country, he said. Police regretted that they had no geiger counter.

Harris died early One shoe merchant observed: "I don't go for him politically, but I have to put my politics aside when I see what he does for business in this town." John Dulles in Talk Against Red Imperialism DETROIT (U.)—Russian imperialism can be stopped by the threat of a smashing counter blow from a free world relying on global strategy, John Foster Dulles says. The U. S. ambassador-at-large told the National Advertising council here last night the free nations should "combine to create a striking force of great power." Then, he said, they should "rely more an more upon the deterrent of that punishing power, and less and less upon a series of many local area defenses." Earlier at a news conference, Dulles said it would be desirable to serve unequivocal notice that the free world will strike back if Russia attacks anywhere. Dulles expressed belief the U. S. strategic Air Force has been the chief deterrent to Russian aggression for the past five years. Palestine Tourist Talks to Men's Club Rev. Bob Worthy, minister of the First Christian Church of Bell, spoke for the Men's Brotherhood of the Christian Church last night. Rev.

McCarthy Not Slated to Run For President WASHINGTON (UP)—Senator McCarthy (R-Wis) said today he probably will take no active part in the battle for Wisconsin's delegation to the 1952 Republican presidential nominating convention. Unless he changes his mind, McCarthy told a reporter, he doesn't even plan to ask to be one of the delegates to the convention. "I expect I'll have my hands full running for re-election to the Senate and I don't intend to take any part in the presidential nominating race," he said. The Wisconsin senator declined to comment on a statement by Rep. George H. Bender (R-Ohio) that while Senator Taft (R-Ohio) doesn't share McCarthy's views and believes the Wisconsin senator is "too vocal." Taft is "not going to kick him in the teeth." Taft, an avowed candidate for the Republican nomination, is counting heavily on a victory in the April 1 Wisconsin primary to keep his campaign for delegates rolling at full speed.
