City, County Officials Confer On Salary Survey
Survey of salaries in public service and private industry of Orange county, for coordination of county and city salaries with those of private firms, started Monday under direction of County Personnel Director William Hart and officials of Santa Ana, Anaheim and Fullerton.
A conference between Hunt, City Administrator Keith Murdoch of Anaheim, City Treasurer Grover C. Hernes, Jr., of Fullerton, and Administrator Carl Thornton of Santa Ana, launched the survey.
It will cover some 20 "key" jobs common to both private and public employment. Contacts with private employers will be made in person rather than by mail, in order to get a more accurate comparison of jobs, Hart said.
Additional survey of job classifications carried only a public service, such as health departments, law enforcement and similar positions, will be made by contact with other public agencies, Hart said.
The survey was authorized recently by the county supervisors, in a effort to adjust some inequities in the county salary schedule, it was said.

Sanitation Men Sign 8300 Bonds For County Sewers
Risking writer's cramp, officials of the joint county sanitation district assembled today in the Jeffries Bank Noe Co. plant, Los Angeles, and signed 8,300 sanitation bonds of the $8,308,000 issue sold Jun. 23 to the Bank of America.
The signing started at 8:30 a.m. and continued to noon. The big task was allotted and expedited by use of the special signature machine owned by the Jeffries Co., which permits the signing of as many as 26 bonds at once.
Scheduled for Friday at 11 a.m. in the same plant is the delivery of the bonds to the Bank of America, and acceptance of the bank's check for the issue. Chairman Willis M. Warner of the county supervisors, who also is a member of each sanitation district board, by virtue of his county office, is expected to accept the check and make formal delivery of the bonds.
The districts have entered a contract with the bank by which the bank, through its eastern connections, will handle the retirement of the bonds as they are paid off, at a charge of $1 per bond; also the cashing of coupons at five cents each.

Politics , Money & Slow Organization
LISBON, Portugal (EP)—Taking vital decisions at high speed, the Atlantic military leaders still have trouble today with two basic problems—politics and money.
The financial hurdle came recommendations submitted to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) temporary council committee headed by U.S. Mutual Security Agency head Averell Harriman.
The report tells how much money it will cost individual NATO countries to bring their defenses up to a necessary minimum.
The politics came in consideration of the badly snarled negotiations on formation of a European army of Belgian, Dutch, French German, Italian and Luxembourg troops and of how to make German troops available to G-dwight Eisenhower's Atlantic forces if the European army takes fall through.
With problems raised by the European army talks still to settle by the Atlantic country home governments, reliable sources said the military commissos could take no decisive action on this item of its agenda.
During two meetings yesterday the committee raced through two thirds of its 12-point agenda.
One vital question quickly solved was the American-British dispute over what to do with Greece and Turkey on the NATO
Anaheim Salesman Takes Freezer Selling Position
Lyle Shafer of 723% N. Claudina st., Anaheim, formerly a mill salesman with Willow Dairy of Buena Park, announced today that he has taken a position with Caraco Meat and Provision Co. of Long Beach as salesman of the Hibbard Freezer and the Hibbard Food club plan for wholesale home food buying.

Growers Warned On Citrus Brown Rot Due to Rain
The heavy rains in January may cause an outbreak of gummosis in many citrus orchards in the county, says Farm Advisor C. D. Gustafson. Growers should make a careful check of all trees on sweet orange rootstock. If the rootstock is not known then all trees should be inspected for symptoms to watch for and they are: dead areas of bark remain firm, exudation of small or large amounts of gum, brown staining of a thin layer of wood, a yellow gummous zone under the bark and beyond the invaded killed area, and then later, a drying and longitudinal cracking of the bark. Below the ground symptoms are similar to the above ground symptoms except gumming is less noticeable because it is usually absorbed by water in the soil.

County Colleges Cooperate on Test Of Lawn Grasses
Several lawn grasses and mixtures are to be grown and tested in Santa Ana, Fullerton and Costa Mesa. These test and demonstration plots are being established by Santa Ana college, Fullerton junior college and the Orange County Fair through the cooperation of the Division of Ornamental Horticulture and the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of California.
The new grasses will be tested as pure stands. Also four types each of full sun and shade mixtures will be grown. Four seco-
Conditions in the orchard which favor growth and multiplication of the fungi should be eliminated. Some of these conditions or practices are having water in contact with the trunk and crown for any length of time, the piling of manures and other organic materials against the trunk, mechanical injuries to the lower trunk by cultivation tools, and the accumulation of debris, mud, etc., around the tree trunk. By correcting these conditions in the orchard the growth can reduce the chance of infection.
When gummosis is discovered on a tree, treatment should begin at once. Failure to give proper treatment will cause the tree to die. Treatment consists of the following steps: (1) remove all dirt from the trunk, crown, and the first lateral roots so the extent of the infection can be determined; (2) remove the diseased bark by cutting it away to a line extending ¼ to ½ inch into the surrounding healthy bark; (3) scrap the diseased area clean of all diseased bark; (4) disinfect the exposed wood with either one percent solution of potassium permanganate or use a bordeaux paste and paint the wound.
After application of either of these treatments and when healing begins at the margins of the wound, paint the wood with an asphaltum emulsion.
The above drawing shows the various formations Steel's Petroleum Co., geologists expect to encounter in searching for oil from Anahina's north-end industrial area. Their geological estimates place any likely pool of production quantity bill at below 6000 feet. The arrows at the left, however, indicate an area where oil may be found. The well is straight down 1580 feet then is whipstocked toward the city.
Anahima's Industrial No. 1 has had extremely rough going recently. Hard shale and otherwise tough conglomerate have played havoc with drilling dips, necessitating frequent replacement of the blast. This takes time, slows down drilling progress. Even so, the drillers have crossed the 5000 foot depth line and are hoping for better times.
The new grasses will be tested as pure stands. Also four types each of full sun and shade mixtures will be grown. Four seed companies are furnishings a sun mixture and shade mixture each to be tried.
The new grasses are U-3 bermuda Marion blue and Delta blue according to Farm Advisor A. H. Holland. U-3 bermuda is more dense and finer than common bermuda. It does not seed and therefore must be propagated vegetatively. It also remains green under more severe winter conditions. Marion blue grass is superior to Kentucky. It makes a dense turf, takes closer mowing and less mowing and is more resistant to invasion by other grasses and weeds. Its seed supply is somewhat more plentiful and is thought by some to be very similar to Marion blue. Paul Andres will use the turf plots as a demonstration area for his students. At Fullerton, Walter Wood, agricultural teacher and P. E. Pycattie, superintendent of grounds, will carry on a similar program.
The Santa Ana plots are already planted and the others will be planted soon. The public is welcome to visit these plots anytime and observe the growth of the different grasses and mixtures. Holland reports that it will probably be late spring before the grasses become established and much can be seen.

State Secretary To Attend Funeral
WASHINGTON (UP)—Secretary of State Acheson leaves for London today to try to put new drive behind Western Europe's faltering talks toward a consolidate defense army.
Accompanied by his two top Germany experts, Acheson will depart aboard President Truman's special plane "The Independence" for a round of talks with the British and French foreign ministers.
While in London, he will represent President Truman at the funeral Friday of Brtiain's late King George VI.
On Tuesday the secretary plans to fly to Lisbon to attend a meeting of the 12 Atlantic pacific governments which are trying to map a common strategy for stopping any communist aggression in Europe.
Acheson is reported determined to make a major effort to prod the Europeans into settling their differences over western Germany and finances. He reportedly fears Congress may slash foreign aid funds for next year unless the bickering stops soon.
Before leaving London, Acheson will seek to iron out British-American-French differences over a "peace contract" for western Germany.
An interim plan for linking western Germany to the Atlantic pacific also is reported to be part of Acheson's goal. He is against immediate membership in the alliance.
Draft Gets Tough With Dentists; 335 Required
WASHINGTON (UP) — Selective service is going to draft 335 dentists for the Armed Services unless the men accept commissions prior to their induction, set for April.
If they accept commissions—and Selective Service says they may until the time of induction—they will get $100 a month extra pay. If they don't, they will be inducted as buck privates but will be eligible for officers' commissions at regular pay after induction.
The Defense department issued the call for induction of dentists yesterday because the number of volunteering for commissions is expected to fall short of needs.
It was the first call for dentists since the Korean war began 19 months ago. A call for 717 doctors was issued last year. No doctors or dentists were drafted in groups as such during World War II.
Spokesmen for Selective Service explained that the 335 dentists subject to draft are the top 335 on its priority one list and have been found physically fit for service. They said those 335 are tabbed for service, regardless of how many other dentists among the 3923 in priority one accept commissions.
However, the spokesmen said, should the number accepting commissions increase materially, future calls would be cut down or obviated.
They pointed out that the Defense department last July called Ex-SAPD Chief Victimized

Warren Reaffirms Candidacy
BOSTON (UP) — Newsmen are keeping California’s Gov. Earl Warren plenty busy on his current eastern trip.
He was asked as he boarded a plane in New York yesterday if he would enter the Minnesota Republican primary as a candidate for the GOP presidential nomination.
Warren, an avowed candidate, said he had no intentions of running in Minnesota.
Then in Boston, where he speaks tonight at a Lincoln day dinner, the governor told the press he was seeking the nomination for himself and was not a "stalking horse for other candidates."
Vote Registration Closes Thursday
Registration for the city election, April 8, in which two city councilmen, a city clerk, and a city treasurer will be elected close Thursday, Feb. 14. The registration books are in the Anaheim city clerk's office at City Hall.
To be eligible for registration, and voting, an Anaheim must have resided in California one year, been a resident of Orange county for 60 days, and lived in the same precinct 54 days.
City officials and other Anaheim leaders are urging their fellow Anaheimers to register and vote. They said those 335 are tabbed for service, regardless of how many other dentists among the 3923 in priority one accept commissions.
However, the spokesmen said should the number accepting commissions increase materially, future calls would be cut down or obviated.
They pointed out that the Defense department last July called for induction of 717 doctors and that all but three of them accepted commissions prior to induction. Because of that call, the spokesmen added, several thousand other doctors accepted commissions,
so calls for 33 doctors in Aug. and 152 in September were postponed.
