Anaheim Gazette THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1958 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA 'In lieu' Tax Apportionment for Orange County Totals $185,594.77 SACRAMENTO — Thomas H Kuchel, state controller, today announced apportionment of $185,262 to cities and counties of the state. The funds represent the Motor Vehicle License Fee, better known as the "in lieu" tax, for the period June 1 to Nov. 20, 1951. Fifty per cent of the funds, or $9,086,631 went to the 306 incorporated cities of the state, and a like amount to 58 counties. Allocation, Kuchel said, is based on population figures of the 1950 census, with correction for annexations made during the period. Per capita rate, according to the controller, is slightly under $1.26 for cities, and 86 cents for counties. During the collection period, a total of $19,469,830 was paid to the state for "in lieu" taxes, that is, taxes on vehicles which previously were collected by cities and counties. From the amount collected, $481,562 was deducted for interest on state highway bonds; $814,589 for support of the Motor Vehicle department and $417 for a legislative claim. The "in lieu" tax is assessed by the state at the rate of $2.00 per hundred market value of the vehicle. The apportionment for Orange county totaled $185,594.77. Kuchel said. City apportionments within the country were: City Anaheim $16,815.79 Brea 4,026.41 Fillerton 17,562.39 Huntington Beach 6,859.69 Laguna Beach 6,851.51 La Habra 6,242.40 Newport Beach 18,250.54 Orange 12,616.99 Placentia 2,118.45 San Clemente 2,528.66 Santa Ana 27,292.97 Seal Beach 4,470.72 Tustin 1,438.23 Totals $156,842.78 Lutherans Plan Home and School Constitutional meeting of the Golden Spike Ceremony At Ghost Tent Anaheim Model Railway society and the Southern Live Steamers will do guests at the driving of a spike marking complete Ghost Town and Calico Ghost Town, Knott's Beer Buena Park, Saturday William N.

Planes also were sent by the Navy and the Air Force's air rescue service. A terse "leaving now" late Wednesday was the final message from the storm-battered Pennsylvania. It had reported itself down at the bow so badly that the rudder rode out of the water part of the time. Earl Warren Visits Hawaiian Islands HONOLULU (AP) — California's Gov. Earl Warren began a day-long air tour of three Hawaiian islands this morning. The California executive left for Hilo, Hawaii, at 7:20 a.m. for breakfast with Republican leaders of the big island. Warren planned to lunch with party chiefs on Maui and stop briefly on Molokai before returning to Honolulu this evening. The governor's wife and 18-year-old daughter Nina stayed in Honolulu, where the Aloha-shirted governor and daughter have been summing daily by Walkiki's surf. Tomorrow, Warren may visit the other large Hawaiian island of Kauai, according to Randolph A. Crossley, territory Republican chief. Activities and will not ask to be relieved of his present military assignment. In the course of a bantering series of questions, Mr. Truman repeated what he has said before—that Senator Robert A. Taft of Ohio is the man he hopes the Republicans will nominate. The president refused to say whether he intends to run again, but he made it plain he would not hesitate to run against Eisenhower, despite his admiration for the general, if he thought that was the thing to do. And, at one point, Mr. Truman tossed out what may have been a hint that he does not think Eisenhower would be a successful campaigner. Asked for his opinion about the wisdom of having a military man as president, Mr. Truman told reporters to read up on the biography of Gen. Winfield Scott. Would the president give any clue as to what this was about? No, said Mr. Truman, adding that the reporters would have to read that for themselves. Scott, a hero of the Mexican war, was nominated for president in 1852 by the Whigs. The dictionary of American biography says "the campaign was essentially without issues but was marked by exceptionally scurious attacks on Scott by newspapers and stump speakers." The dictionary goes on to say that Scott's "straight-forwardness was an easy target for the Democrats." He was overwhelmingly defeated by Franklin Pierce." Once, Mr. Truman remarked—almost wistfully it seemed—that His reference to the death of spreading those levies as possible among the public dedicated to some top tax ties that Congress at the time be asked to plug existing holes" which give special relief to one group or another.

Bride Decides She Likes First Husband Better ATLANTIC (AP)—A pretty 22-year-old bride has decided to keep the first of two soldier husbands given her by a strange turn of fate in the fortunes of war. In the name of Mrs. Agnes Dixon, she petitioned superior court to annul her marriage to William S. Sasser. She asked that the marriage be declared null and void on grounds that she is the legal wife of Walter B. Dixon, once reported killed in Korea but later listed among war captives alive in communist prison camps. She and Sasser were directed by Judge E. E. Andrews to appear in court for a hearing Jan. 28. Sasser agreed in a signed affidavit to abide by the court's declaratory judgment. The petition recounted that she was married to Dixon at Conley, Ga., on April 5, 1950, and was notified by the Defense Department in June, 1951, that he had been killed in action. Last September she married Sasser in the belief that she was a widow, the petition related. She found Dixon's name on the rolls of prisoners of war published just before Christmas. Remembering his army serial number, she discovered it was the same as the number published with his name. After a holiday vacation with Sasser's parents at Lagrange, N.C., she and Sasser returned here recently. Sasser is a soldier stationed at Fort McPherson. White Temple 'Goes Spanish' For Latin Study White Temple Methodist church is truly “going Spanish” this month, as the entire church joins in the inter-denominational mission study of our Latin-American neighborhoods to the south. All of the evening services are directed that way, and following the evening service separate study-groups meet for adults, young adults and youth, all studying this theme. At the 7 p.m. evening service, the misses Mildred and Anna Claire Mauerhan, teachers, in the Anaheim public schools, will exhibit their beautiful color pictures taken on a recent tour around South America, to grant a backdrop of local color before the study classes. Rare curiosities will be exhibited also. Youth groups of the church are taking the study quite seriously too, and are supplementing it with social events on south-of-the-border themes. On Tuesday evening, the Junior High MYF will stage a Taco Feed, and on Wednesday night, the high school-college MYE will present a Fiesta night. At the 10:50 am. morning service on Sunday, Rev. Frank E. Butterworth will continue his sermon series concerning commonplace struggles of the soul with a discussion of the loss of appetite for religion under the title, "Spiritual Dehydration."

Soon other parts of the Enterprise began to crack, and more cargo was pitched out into the sea. By 8:30 p.m. the Enterprise was fully on her side. Grimly Carlsen and Dancy, clad in life jackets and dripping with water, watched the last gasp from the tug. It was a gallant death. The rescue fleet saluted it. In the last few minutes the tugs sounded their sirens. Only the bow of the Enterprise was visible. At 8:09 p.m. flares on the surface of the water near the ship were lighted, casting a weird light over the area as Enterprise took her final lunge. One minute later the Enterprise was below the sea. Carlsen and Dancy were taken into the cabin of the Turmoll by its skipper, Captain Dan Parker. The Navy said the two men had been in the water only four minutes, so effective had the rescue operation been. Prospect of Tax Increase Vanishes WASHINGTON — The prospect of any general federal tax increase this year—unless widespread war breaks out—shrank to the vanishing point today. Congressional revenue experts noted that President Truman's state of the union message spoke only of continued high taxes over the next few years, and omitted any mention of a possible further increase. His reference to the desirability of spreading those levies as fairly as possible among the people indicated to some top tax authorities that Congress at the most will be asked to plug existing "loopholes" which give special tax relief to one group or another. There is no certainty that the lawmakers would go even that far. In yesterday's message, Mr. Boy, I'm really hot water happy Gas heats water 3 times faster and costs less, too!

There is no certainty that the lawmakers would go even that far. In yesterday's message, Mr. Cruman promised to discuss taxes further in his economic report, due on capitol hill next Wednesday, and in the budget message which will follow. The consensus at the capitol was that any recommendation for another general increase would be a waste of White House stationery. Donald R.

SOUTHERN COUNTIES OAS COMPANY Lutheran Hospital Is Forum Subject For Orange Meet "Lutheran Hospital—Vicksburg, Institution of Mercy" is the topic which will be discussed at an open forum meeting at Immanuel Lutheran church, at E. Chapman ave. and Pine st., Orange, at 8 o'clock tonight. The speaker at this "Town-hall" meeting will be the Rev. Kenneth Hoffman, chaplain of Vicksburg Lutheran hospital, now owned by the Lutheran Laymen's league. Rev. Hoffman has, according to Dr. Parsons, chief of staff of the hospital, done a marvelous job by way of ministering to the spiritual wants of the inmates, most of whom are cancer, polio, or spastic patients. He also has been instrumental in starting a fine mission congregation in Vicksburg. Rev. Hoffman is well qualified to present the story of Vicksburg hospital and its patients, and does so in a most dramatic manner. An open forum discussion will follow the presentation, led by John A. Mueller, assistant executive secretary of the National Lutheran Laymen's league, and director of its seminar program. He will also present pertinent facts concerning this educational feature of the league. Under the auspices of the National Lutheran Laymen's league and through the committees of its various districts, these seminars are held in cities throughout our nation and Canada. They are specifically designed to educate the Self-Employed Warned on Social Security Report “If you work for yourself and are planning to include your own name on the quarterly social security return that you will file with the Collector of Internal Revenue in January on Form 941, don’t do it,” say both the Social Security Administration and the Collector of Internal Revenue. Many of the self-employed business men who were brought under social security about a year ago, are under the impression that they are to report their income quarterly in the same manner that they report the income and tax of their employees, and on the same form. Self-employed persons are not on the same basis as their employees, either as to method of reporting, or as to amount due. Their net earnings for social security purposes are to be reported once a year, as a part of their income tax returns; and payment of the tax is deferred until the time that the income tax return is due. In spite of this fact, when the payment is so made, the self-employed person will have been covered for the entire year of 1951. Self-employed persons may secure details as to the method of reporting social security coverage at any office of the Collector of Internal Revenue. A booklet entitled “Do You Work For Yourself?” explaining old-age and survivors insurance as it applies to people who are self-employed, may oe obtained without charge at any office of the Civil Defense Head Warns of Lack of Blood If every person in California gave a pint of blood the supply would still be insufficient to meet the needs of casualties in the event of an atomic attack on the state. This was the warning voiced Monday by Maj. Gen. Walter M. Robertson, State Director of Civil Defense. “To meet the need, people throughout all of America would have to give — that you might live,” he added. General Robertson was speaking on the weekly statewide broadcast presented by the California Office of Civil Defense. To emphasize the serious shortage of both blood and plasma for military and Civil Defense requirements, the personal stories of four California veterans, wounded in Korea and now in Letterman Army hospital, were included in the program. Each recited experiences where blood or plasma saved a life, or the lack of them cost the life, of a fighting man. In addition to making a plea for blood donations for their comrades still fighting in Korea, the veterans urged immediate support of California’s Civil Defense program. The battle scarred quartet are: Charles Shock of Stockton, Alvan Lemos, Hanford; Harold Harvey, Oakland, and Martin Dunne of San Francisco. Next week’s statewide broadcast will concern the proposed Civil Defense Family Food Shelf. Lutheran Laymen's league, and director of its seminar program. He will also present pertinent facts concerning this educational feature of the league. Under the auspices of the National Lutheran Laymen's league and through the committees of its various districts, these seminars are held in cities throughout our nation and Canada. They are specifically designed to educate the laity to a richer and fuller life of Christian service. The Rev. Victor L. Behnken, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran church, will conduct the devotions. Self-employed persons may secure details as to the method of reporting social security coverage at any office of the Collector of Internal Revenue. A booklet entitled "Do You Work For Yourself?" explaining old-age and survivors insurance as it applies to people who are self-employed, may oe obtained without charge at any office of the social security offices. Next week's statew.de broadcast will concern the proposed Civil Defense Family Food Shelf. By appreciation we make excellence in others our own property.—Voltaire.
