Aneheim Gazette TUESDAY, JANUARY 8 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA EISENHOWER MAN OF THE HOUR! PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 7—TRYING IT FOR SIZE—Donald M. Swope, chairman of the Gettysburg, Pa., chapter of the "Americans-for-Eisenhower," where General Dwight D. Eisenhower owns a farm, holds a ten-gallon hat over a photo of the SHAPE general today after Senator Lodge (R-Mass) announced he had entered Eisenhower's name in the New Hampshire GOP presidential race. Swope is circulating petitions urging the general to run for the presidential nomination on the Republican ticket.

"Last year's new car delivery said Fish, "brought the m of Chevrolets in service to GOP Dark Horse Candidate Looms As Earl Warren, Despite General By MORRIE LANDSBERG SACRAMENTO (UP) — Governor Warren's backers are giving close study to the political implications of General Dwight D. Eisenhower's statement that he would accept the Republican nomination for president. Eisenhower's go-ahead to his supporters won't change any of Warren's announced campaign plans as California's favorite son candidate—simply because all he has announced is that he will not enter the Ohio primary against Senator Taft. However, as Warren himself put it in Honolulu yesterday, Eisenhower would be a "very powerful candidate." The state's vacationing governor, it is clear, has been waiting for Eisenhower to declare himself. Ike's decision opens the way for him to work out his own campaign plans after his return from a 10-day stay in Hawaii. It has been the understanding here that if Warren decided to seek convention delegates outside California, he would pick spots where he wouldn't have to compete with the popular general. But Eisenhower in his Paris statement said he would not campaign for the presidency in advance of the Republican convention in July. His name still can be placed on primary election ballots but without Ike as an active candidate. This reservation may have a bearing on election strategy of Warren as well as the other candidates in the field. There has been scattered activity on behalf of Eisenhower in California by both Democrats and Republicans. It has in no sense formed into a major movement. Republican sources here predict that Eisenhower forces will refrain from entering his name in the June 3 California primary. Taft already has said he will not come into California. Warren polled 2,461,754 votes in winning a third term as governor last fall. In other words, would be a tough man to fight against in his home state. Eisenhower's entrance into national race conceivably helped Warren's chances. He been described by Senator R.Calif' as the strongest horse for the GOP nomination. On that basis, any convoluted stalemate involving Eisenhower and Taft might wind up with ren at the top of the ticket.

CENTER ST. ANAHEIM Phone 2524 Traveling Peddlers Reportedly Selling Flammable Rayon Sweaters in County LOS ANGELES (AP)—Travelling peddlers selling dangerously flammable brushed rayon sweaters have about abandoned the Los Angeles area because of arrests and publicity but they are popping up in other parts of the state to upload their wares, Fire Capt. John G. Degenkolb said today. Capt. Degenkolb, of the fire prevention bureau, said there have been five arrests here since sale of the sweaters started early in December. Since then reports have been received on sales in the areas of Brea, Orange, Oceande, Santa Barbara, San Francisco and Sacramento. His bureau has received reports at least a dozen cases in which the sweaters caught fire. He said eight persons in Los Angeles have suffered burns. The state fire marshal's office reports that the sweaters virtually explode to fame and a complete sweater is consumed in 30 seconds. Capt. Degenkolb said the first report on the sweaters was received in December when one worn by a young man caught fire after he lit a cigarette. Another man lost his sweater in flames while sitting in a courtroom. The fire captain said his investigation indicates that cloth for the sweaters is made by a firm in New York City and is sent to several other companies to be made into sweaters. He said all the dangerous garments have been sold by peddlers on the street and that legitimate stores do not handle this merchandise. He said the sweaters are made of a "poor grade of rayon." "It is a piled, brushed fabric, so lightly made and shoddy that it is extremely hazardous," said Degenkolb. He said peddlers will represent the mens' sweaters, in various colors, as cashmere or pure camel and sometimes tell buyers they are offered at special prices because they are "hot." Peddlers sell them for as much as the traffic will bear, from very little to as much as $35 a set. A section of the California administrative code makes it a misdemeanor to sell any clothing that is dangerously flammable. The five arrests here have been under this section. The defendants have not yet been tried. Degenkolb said it is not illegal to possess the sweaters so arrests can be made only when there is a sale. County Milk Prices WASHINGTON, Jan. 8—CUTBACK FOR CONGRESS—Reed Steed (D-Okla) sadly contemplates the new style serving soup in the House restaurant as Congressmen gathered convening of the House and Senate. When the Oklahomaocrat left Washington after adjournment 11 weeks ago, he bought a brimming bowl (foreground) of the traditional liner of the House menu but now a serving comes in a boo-oatmeal bowl (background). And coffee is now 10 cents-nickel as in the past.—(Associated Press Wirephoto) Congressmen Now Worrying About Serving of Historic Bean Soup WASHINGTON (AP) — A bean soup controversy simmered menacingly today as Congress recon- The disclosure by W. T. Fish, general sales manager, accompanied an announcement that in 1951 Chevrolet led all other automotive manufacturers in retail sales for the twelfth consecutive peacetime war. "Last year's new car deliveries," said Fish, "brought the number of Chevrolets in service to over 200,000. No other make in automotive history ever accumulated so imposing a total." The 1952 models, said Fish, will be new mechanically and in appearance, "fulfilling in every respect the quality and beauty that the public has come to expect from Chevrolet." "In accordance with our longstanding custom," the sales executive continued, "the models will be publicly shown first at Chevrolet dealerships, virtually of whom are planning special events on the date of the show." The last fall. In other words, he would be a tough man to go upstreet in his home state. Eisenhower's entrance into the national race conceivably could Warren's chances. He has been described by Senator Nixon (Calif.) as the strongest dark-horse for the GOP nomination. That basis, any convention climate involving Eisenhower, Taft might wind up with War at the top of the ticket. County Milk Prices To Climb ½ Cent SACRAMENTO (UP) — Another round of milk price increases is starting in California. The state bureau of milk control yesterday announced boosts of from one half cent to a cent and a half a quart will go into effect in nine of the state's 34 milk marketing areas Jan. 16. The bureau said evidence presented at hearings in December clearly established that the cost of feeding dairy cows has gone up more than 20 per cent since last August, the time of the most recent price hikes. These are the areas where the price of a quart of milk will rise: Kern county 1½ cents; San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Tulare county 1 cent; Los Angeles county, Orange county, San Bernardino-Riverside, San Diego county and Ventura county ½ cent. Hearings covering most of the rest of the state have been held this month. They developed the same testimony of the rising cost of producing milk that led to yesterday's announcement. First 1952 Rabbit Show Set at Norco First of the rabbit shows of 1952 is one to be held at the Norco Community Center, three miles north of Corona next Sunday, Jan. 13. The one-day show has been announced by Mrs. R. A. Schott, of Riverside, who is handling the entries for the show. Of particular interest locally is the fact that J. W. (Jack) Bryant, Santa Ana producer and judge, will be one of the two judges. The other is Wm. E. (Bill) Johnson, also in Wm. E. (Bill) Johnson. Congressmen Now Worrying About Serving of Historic Bean Soup WASHINGTON (UP) — A bean soup controversy simmered menacingly today as Congress reconvened after an 11-week adjournment. The size of the servings of this standard Congressional mainstay in the House of Representatives restaurant has been cut down drastically. Two bits formerly brought a brimming bowl of the nourishing stuff; a boy's size oatmeal bowl would be a roomy fit for an order today. Rep. Tom Steed, a Democratic bean soup gourmet from Shawnee, Okla., uncovered this newest evidence of inflation almost immediately upon his return to the capital. His reaction was resigned but embittered. Stirring a 10-cent cup of coffee, which was only a nickel when he went down to Oklahoma last October, Steed invited his colleagues, the press and the world at large to consider capitol bean soup in historical perspective. "This pottage," he declared, "plus of course soda crackers, for which there traditionally is no charge, has fueled some of America's greatest statesmen for tasks of highest importance. "The late Uncle Joe Cannon, famous speaker of the house, was a bean soup addict. The honorable Sam Rayburn, the present speaker, is a card-carrying bean soup eater. Historians have more than a little basis to believe that the Missouri Compromise was founded on a sturdy foundation of rich capitol bean soup." Steed considered but rejected a proposal to ask the Bureau of Standards for a check of the exact reduction in servings. He said he guessed the restaurant management had to cut corners to keep pace with rising costs, but The giant liner United States, largest and fastest passenger ship ever built in this country, looms large against the winter sky at her outfitting dock in the Newport News (Va.) Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Company yard. This new superliner will join the America, present flagship of the United States Lines, in transatlantic service. The new vessel is now 85% completed, with interior installations well under way, and is scheduled to make her maiden voyage from New York to Southampton and Mayreau early next summer. Her peacetime capacity will be 2,000 passengers and a crew of 1,000, although in wartime she could carry a complete division of 14,000 men a distance of 10,000 miles without stopping for fuel, water or food. Norco Community Center, three miles north of Corona next Sunday, Jan. 13. The one-day show has been announced by Mrs. R. A. Schott, of Riverside, who is handling the entries for the show. Of particular interest locally is the fact that J. W. (Jack) Bryant, Santa Ana producer and judge, will be one of the two judges. The other is Wm. E. (Bill) Johnson, also well known in the judging field. Growers who wish to make entries during the week are advised to get in touch with Mrs. R. A. Schott at 6221 Riverside Drive, Riverside. Steed considered but rejected a proposal to ask the Bureau of Standards for a check of the exact reduction in servings. He said he guessed the restaurant management had to cut corners to keep pace with rising costs, but he wished it had raised the price rather than cut the volume. Quoting from an Oklahoma folk poet, whose name he said he couldn't recall, Steed sadly intoned: "I mix my beans with honey; Famed Traveler, Speaker, to be at Fullerton Public Forum Jan. 17 Recent travel over 20,000 miles through mountains, deserts and forests of the American West provides the background for spectacular beauty and rollicking adventure in a color film, "Seven Wonders of the West," to be presented to Fullerton Public Forum in the high school auditorium Thursday evening, Jan. 17. Photographer whose keen sense of humor and knack for unusual presentation has won him international reputation is Francis R. Line. His latest film presentation combines laughs, excitement and breathtaking scenery experienced in a midget station wagon by the Line family, including two teenaged girls. Among locations visited was the extreme tip of North Cape, most seenic promontory of Grand Canyon, where the adventure-seeking group found a lowly thistle bush overlooking the rim, guarded by a tiny bird. Over a period of four months, films were made of the bird which repeatedly drove off other winged and insect creatures if they attempted to settle on the thistle bush, against ever-changing pictorial aspects of the vast canyon. Another wonder on the trip was Yellowstone, with Old Faithful as the theme of a story-sequence rich with humor and beauty. Wonder number Three is of Grand Coulee Dam, with 4000 sheep surging across its top. Skiing at Million Dollar Tinberline Lodge on Mt. Hood's slopes is captured on film, including snowstorm, icicle beauty, adventure in snow. Bryce and Zion can For change of pace, in his picture presentation, Line follows the marks left by legendary Paul Bunyon who supposedly scooped out Puget Sound to create Mt. Ranier, left his footprint at Crater Lake, and had numerous other experiences appropriate to his size. Involved are such landmarks as Mt Shasta, Sequoia, and Yosemite Parks, and the Giant Redwoods.
