Growers’ Conference Told Wind Machines Effective Against Frost The two years’ wind machine survey conducted by the Farm Advisor’s office in Orange county covering 1940 and 1950 concludes that effective frost protection can be obtained by this method if certain requisites are followed. This was the opening statement of Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg at the special county-wide meeting held Friday for growers interested in the frost protection. Over 225 growers from all parts of the county were in attendance. F. A. Brooks, head of the Division of Agricultural Engineering, College of Agriculture, reported on results of the wind machine research work that has been under way for several seasons at the Citrus Experiment Station and other locations in California. His report was accompanied by a number of technical charts and pictures of wind machine operations. Some of the conclusions of studies and experiments reported by both speakers were: 1. On nights of lowest temperatures a few supplementary heaters (66 to 12 per acre) are usually necessary to raise temperatures above damaging levels. 2. About 6 to 8 horsepower per acre for the acreage requiring protection is required for adequate protection. 3. Each orchard presents its own peculiar situation. Protective equipment should be tailored and installed to meet the particular requirements. 4. The cost of operation for dual gasoline machines covering 15 acres averages 55 cents per acre hour when run 100 hours during the season and 39 cents when run 200 hours. Cost of operating electric machine (100 horsepower on 15 acres) averages 67 cents on 200-hour run. 5. If supplemental heaters are used, say 10 heaters per acre, an additional cost of 12 cents per acre hour for the total hours the wind machine is run should be added. 6. The cost of operating may increase as the machines become older. The Orange county study covered mostly new machines. 7. Some installations are considerably underpowered for the area to be protected. 8. Temperatures may be raised 3 degrees at the optimum distance. SACRAMENTO (UP) — Attorney General Edmund G. Brown ruled today that the State Central Committee of a California political party can not handpick a state of national convention delegates. The opinion dashed cold water on a movement by some members of the Democratic State Central committee to line up a delegation pledged to President Truman; It foreclosed the possibility that the state committee, or its executive committee, could transform itself into a temporary campaign force in behalf of any single candidate. The Democratic executive committee organized itself into a statewide campaign group last fall to work for the reelection of Mr. Truman. Brown said, however, that nothing in the law prevents individual members of a State Central Committee from “exercising their political privileges as individuals.” He said such activity before the primary election would promote party factionalism and strife, “thus preventing the state committee from fulfilling its statutory function of party leadership.” Brown based his ruling on provisions of the law which places the central committee in official charge of the party’s general campaign—once candidates have been nominated at the primary. A cost-of-living increase of 4 cents per hour for 2900 Pacific Electric employees, effective Jan. 1, 1952, was announced today by L. R. McIntire, manager of personnel. Not included are 1800 trainmen and motor coach operators whose request for a wage increase is being negotiated, with the next conference scheduled on Jan. 14. The wage boost is authorized for all other employees under existing labor agreements and for all non-operating employees not covered by agreements. This increase brings to 11 cents per hour the wage adjustments for Pacific Electric employees under the cost-of-living allowance since April 1, 1951, and will hike the company's payroll $22,000 per month, McIntire said.

The cost of operating may increase as the machines become older. The Orange county study covered mostly new machines. 7. Some installations are considerably underpowered for the area to be protected. 8. Temperatures may be raised 3 degrees at the optimum distance of 350 feet from the larger machines. 9. Some fundamentals to remember: Wind machines do not create heat—they mix the warm and cold air strata and equalize temperatures in the orchard. Wind machines hasten the drying of foliage and reduce potential freezing damage. Solid ground absorbs sun's heat most rapidly during the day and releases most radiant heat during the night. Loose ground and cover crops absorb less radiant heat and give off less. 10. There are about 400 wind machines installed in Orange county. REV.

Israeli Hatred Of Germany Flares Into Mob Violence JERUSALEM (UP) — Lingering hatred of German Nazis fired a mob of 2000 Israeli youths to storm the Knesset (parliament) last night in a lot which left more than 200 persons injured. Police fought a two-hour battle with clubs, tear gas and shots fired into the air to keep the mob out of the Knesset session. 10 policemen and five civilians were hospitalized with injuries. Eighty-two other policemen and many more civilians were hurt. Seventy persons suspected of rioting were arrested. The rioters were protesting a proposal to open direct talks with Germany over claims of about 1½ billion dollars in money and goods for reparations to dispossessed Jews. The claims so far have been pressed only through the Big Four occupying powers in Germany. Police said the rioters were followers of Menachem Beigin, leader of the Herut party. Herut succeeded the anti-British underground organization, Irgun Zval Leumi, which carried on a bombing war against British administrators before Israel became independent. Beigin's party had organized a mass meeting in Knesset square. The riot forced a two hour suspension of parliamentary debate, which lapsed into uproar. Dwyer, one of the developers who was present at the meeting assured the commission that they intend to go ahead with plans for underground installation of utilities lines. Dr. E. H. W. Kersten is the other developer. To prevent interference of residential developments with industrial areas, the commission approved a resolution excluding the following types of development in M-2 (heavy industrial) zones: residences, hotels, hospitals (excepting emergency industrial hospitals), institutions or homes for children, aged, alcoholics, convicts, mentally infirm or wounded, schools or trailers (except for use as a dwelling for a responsible employee of the factory on its own site). Building Code Clarified To clarify terms of a section of the building code, the commission voted to permit extension of eaves, cornices, canopies, etc., four inches into the side yard of a house per each foot of required side yard. The old regulation permitted extension two inches per foot of side yard without specifying "required" side yard. Commissioner A. J. Schutte objected that the requirement was too restrictive, that property owners should be able to use the side yard as they saw fit. His was the only "NO" vote on the change. After the voting was over, Planning Consultant Gordon Whitnall pointed out that Schutte had voted for further restriction by voting against the change from a two-inch per foot extension to a four-inch per foot extension.

Round Brown Rules Committee in State Cannot Handpick State of National Delegates The opinion, prepared by Deputy Attorney General Leonard Friedman of Sacramento, was asked by Assemblyman John E. Moss, Jr., (D-Sacramento), who opposed the handpicking of convention delegates. The Democratic state committee already has selected the majority of its prospective delegates to the July national convention—all instructed to Mr. Truman. Its executive committee meets in San Francisco this week-end select the remainder of the slate. Whether today's opinion will upset the action already taken remains to be seen. There has been talk of pledging the California Democratic delegation to Brown himself or Senator Kefauver (D-Tenn) as well as the president. Member Prepares For New Role WASHINGTON (AP)—An active Republican prepared today to become boss of the multi-million-dollar Reconstruction Finance Corporation under an announced policy of loans "on a basis of business and merit—no politics." Even as Harry A. McDonald, enunciated this policy, however a move sprang up to launch a new Senate investigation of the huge scandal-scarred government lending agency. Senator Maybank (D-SC), Senate Banking committee chairman, announced he had ordered an inquiry into the resignation of W. Stuart Symington as RFC administrator. He said Senate action on President Truman's nomination of Harry A. McDonald to succeed Symington probably would be held up until after the inquiry. McDonald, now chairman of the Securities and Exchange commission, is a close personal friend of Symington.
