THEODORE B. KUCHEL MAX BESLER LEONARD KREIDT STANLEY JONES NEIL STANLEY Q. E. MELLEN RALPH ROULAND DON YOUNG Warren pitches in... The great American practice of putting the issues to the candidates early in the game appears to hold no terrors for Governor Earl Warren, candidate for the Republican nomination for president. The governor has no hesitancy in commenting on most national and international issues, as was shown by his recent comments on the question of whether or not the United States should arm Nationalsist forces headed by Chiang Kai-shek which are now in Formosa, and send them into China to reconquest the red territory. He has not been able to persuade himself, he declared, that such action would be "in the best interests of the country," particularly at a time when this nation is endowing to end the Korean war on a negotiation basis. The governor's reasoning on the subject is based on what appears to be a fair knowledge of lori- the second, which would be to pick up the projected Chinese war against the reds, a course which would mean that American soldiers would be required to finish the job without allies of any other nation. And as to the diplomatic situation, while the governor did not say so specifically, there was an indication from his comments that such a course of action on the part of the United States would be tantamount to a declaration of war on Russia, which is the power behind red China. Further, the governor indicated that the United Nations muffled the ball when it failed to utilize the Chinese forces in the Korean conflict, in view of the fact that Nationalist China was a member of the United Nations. It was the view of some observers that the governor's attitude on this subject is fundamentally sound for the time.

McKay years old, who used miles on horseback He has not been able to persuade himself, he declared, that such action would be "in the best interests of the country" particularly at a time when this nation is endeavoring to end the Korean war on a negotiation basis. The governor's reasoning on the subject is based on what appears to be a fair knowledge of logistics and military tactics, as well as the diplomatic situation which would result from such action. He pointed out that the job of keeping 230,000 troops fed, clothed and armed, as well as supplied with air power, would be a tremendous undertaking, especially when this country is having difficulty supporting its own troops in Korea. He then said he did not believe that 230,000 Chinese would have any great hope of success in leveling the red forces of China, and pointed out that such a failure would leave this country in a position where it could adopt only two courses: the first to "indiciously abandon" the project, or IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago February 1877 There will be a called meeting of the Anaheim Lodge 297, F. and A. M. this evening. A large attendance is desired. The P.D. will hold a special meeting this evening—business of importance is to be transacted. Surveyor Hansen got out a warrant yesterday against some party for maliciously tearing down one of his signal posts. Mr. Chapel sold his farm in Garden Grove to Mr. Spencer Johnson yesterday. 50 Years Ago February, 1892 Dr.-Higgins has sold his drug store to Kellar E. Walson and J. B. Lounsbury of Orange, who are now in charge of the property. They will make extensive improvements and will stock the store with new drugs and other articles usually found in first-class establishments. Dr. Higgins has been a resident of Anaheim since May, 1869. He and his daughter, Miss Margaret, leave for Redlands, where they will visit for Further, the governor indicated that the United Nations muffled the ball when it failed to utilize the Chinese forces in the Korean conflict, in view of the fact that Nationalist China was a member of the United Nations. It was the view of some observers that the governor's attitude on this subject is fundamentally sound; for the time being, at least, and Warren made mention of the fact that any change in the situation could change his opinions rapidly. The conclusion reached is that the governor would have no thought of plunging the country into a war which could be avoided honorably, but on the other hand, he would have the stamina and courage to maintain America's position abroad in any situation. In other words, he is not seeking conflict on any front, but should conflict arise; he would clean it up as rapidly as possible with the least cost in American lives and disruption of American economy.

At this point kindly Surveyor Hansen got out a warrant yesterday against some party for maliciously tearing down one of his signal posts. Mr. Chapel sold his farm in Garden Grove to Mr. Spencer Johnson yesterday. A large number of citizens of the town met together last night to discuss ways and means of avoiding such palataties with which our town has been threatened during the past few weeks. Resolutions were passed which will make it unhealthy for any disorderly individuals or loafers in our midst. An efficient night watch will be provided, and our families may rent assured that no disturbances will be suffered. To those who prefer to pass the time in guzzling whiskey, setting fire to houses, getting into rooms and making disturbances, we will offer the information that they will find Anaheim a remarkably poor place for their operations. Mr. Rust brought into our office yesterday a live jackrabbit which he had rescued from the talons of a buzzard. It was a long time before the little fellow recovered from his fright.

Eccles, is toying with the idea of running for the Senate from Utah as a Republican. Eccles helped organize the six companies which built Boulder Dam, comes from an old-line pioneer Mormon family which owns about half the banks and hotels in Utah, but arrived in Washington in the early days of the new deal to become FDR's right-hand fiscal adviser. Eccles was close to Prof. Rexford Guy Tugwell and other economists who helped devalue the dollar, and subsequently he was appointed chairman of the Federal Reserve Board. Came the Truman administration, and Eccles eventually tangled with the secretary of the treasury over the basic policy of government bonds and its inflationary effect on the national economy. Last year, with seven more years of his term to run, Eccles quit in disgust. Back in Utah with a new and beautiful wife, Eccles is being urged to run for the Senate. If he does—believe it or not—it will be as a Republican. Reactionary Apostle The Mormon church, by all odds the most dominant influence in Utah both spiritually and economically, is witnessing a significant inner debate over an issue also of interest to the rest of the nation—economy. New president of the Mormon church is kindly, elder statesman David O. McKay, now 78 years old, who used to ride 14 miles on horseback to his job OBLONG VIEWS FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD BY WALDO HUNTER THE BRITISH, WITH traditional Old World pomp and circumstance, have laid another emperor in his grave. Entwined as they are in tradition and dictated to by precedent and protocol over there, nothing could be but that the trappings and the glitter and the grandeur should be paraded during the week-long ceremonies. You could never tell them that after all is said and done, they were merely returning clay to clay. The laying away of the monarch was done to a fine turn. But one wonders whether he will rest any easier because of the theatrics. How can gold-plated carriages help the spirit in its flight from the earthly to the eternal? Perhaps an uncouth Yankee, unawed by the rites for a king in a far-away land, may be excused for venturing the opinion that there is every bit as much dignity in the lonely death of an American infantryman at some disputed spot in Korea, or in the natural passing of an obscure father or mother in some rude mountain shack in the American hinterland. Poet never penned truer lines than these: The boast of heraldry, the pomp of power. And all that beauty, all that wealth for gays. Await alike the inevitable hour: The paths of glory lead but to the grave. brawl started when a night club comedian made suggestive remarks at the star's table. How her husband, pro footballer Bob Waterfield, managed to hang one on her instead of the comedian in the ensuing fracas has never been definitely established, and somehow, no one seems to care. We find it increasingly difficult to waste sympathy on the Hollywood "glamor" gals who capitalize on sensuality, and the question arises: just how would you go about insulting one of them? Be that as it may, the newspapers were once again duped into giving a screen star a million dollars worth of free publicity, and Miss Russell will keep right on "packing 'em in," if you will pardon the expression. For the legislature gives the solos, whom must run for year, opportunity to in the interests of the students, and go home short; 30-day budget their brief cases for meents as to why they re-elected. But try as the legislature will not escape what appears at this upcoming as the big in the history of the over a billion dollars cludes a $36 million crease in the general expenditures of the state. Tentative figures budget include $89 per lars for the state's by grum. biggest chunk is nearly $19 million institutions. Education million for state college additional $14 million by the University of for expansion and ments. Clark, however, has remained sympathetic to the drastic budget pruning of GOP Gov. Bracken Lee, especially when it came to cracking down on the pride of Utah's educational system—the University of Utah. Governor Lee urged a cut in the university's funds, and after prolonged debate the Utah legislature was split 50-50. At this point kindly President McKay made a speech. Taking a leaf out of his long experience as a college president, he spoke convincingly and eloquently of the importance of educating the next generation. Next day a copy of his speech was on the desk of every state legislator. Shortly thereafter the university's budget was ok'd—without the cute proposed by Governor Lee and favored by Apostle J. Reuben Clark, the onetime liberal from the State Department. and their families. There are now 124 acres in the tract and Mr. Derby paid $250,000 for it. An ancient legend has it that valuables and plates of the old Spanish dons who owned the hacienda are hidden in secret places in the walls of the home. These walls are more than three feet in thickness and a search for hidden treasures will probably be an interesting one. The house is said to be more than 150 years old. The ranch has been in the possession of the Adams family for the past 90 years. It was purchased by John Adams just before his death. Three daughters, the only remaining members of the family will receive the quarter million dollars through the sale of the property. The ranch is located between Costa Mesa and Newport Beach. Joseph Schweinfest has been awarded scholastic honors at California Institute of Technology. The reward is a $500 prize and a trip to Europe. He graduated from Anaheim high school in the class of 1924. THE BATTERED, bloody and stupid physiognomy in the other picture is of Lee Sayold (said in some quarters to be a prize fighter) in one of his unhappier moments. He is shown engaged in one of America's most popular "sports." Televiewers all over the nation were treated last week to the dubious privilege of seeing this tottering hulk pounded into temporary idolcy by Kocky Marciano, ten years younger, in one of the most flagrantly mis-matched lights of the century. The outcome of the messure was so obvious at flight time that odd-making hit an all-time low. Sayold, who should never have been allowed in the same ring (indeed, if even in the same town) with Marciano, was unable to answer the bell for the seventh round despite the yell of the pack for more blood. Organized boxing in sanctioning this butchery has done itself no good. Neither has young Marciano. To sports fans with sensibilities, this fight was disgraceful. To the sadists, perhaps, it was fun. Tentative figures budget include $89 per laparos for the state's by-pass program. Biggest chunk is nearly $19 million for institutions. Education million for state colleges additional $14 million by the University of for expansion and improvements. The $89 million would from the capital outlays funds, but when special fund programs along with the highway total reached 418! SURPLUS ROW: No problem for the to spend $150 million, that which is surplus. A surplus in state means the government that much more out of payers pockets than thorized in expenditure; the current budget surplus estimated. The Department Finance thought it would only $13 million surplus comfortable amount. amazing growth of it the increase in retail Korean War employment and other factors, having led to the total to more times the Departmental estimate.

TV-RADIOLOGIC Popular Vocalovely Now Seeks Disc Jockey Spot By TOM E. DANSON HOLLYWOOD — "Yep. — that's for me," said the lovely Rosalind Courtright. "I know of nothing I would like better than to be a female disc jockey with an all night show." Rosalind, currently appearing at the Morambo, is the gal with the sexsational voice and style of presentation, yet, she has been night clubbing only four years. "I was trained as a coloratura soprano," she told me, "but always wanted to sing popular music. I didn't like the frills and trills of a classical coloratura, but my mother was set on it. Had I been trained as a contralto, I guess I would still be doing classical." Against her mothers wishes, Rosalind started with popular music, working for six months trying to get the phrasing and style of popular singing. "In popular singing, it takes an awful long time to undo your 'Student Prince' habits," she said. Rosalind has appeared on several television shows (Cavalcade of Stars, and Cavalcade of Bands) which she really enjoyed. "I'd love to do a TV show of my own," she said. "only if I were important enough to ask for and get the things that would build a real show — like Dinah Shore's, for instance." Three years ago, Rosalind was naked to put a television show together, which she did. Her format included violins, harp, male vocal quartet, a modern ballet team and a piano accompanist soon, there was only Courtright and plane, which I promptly turned down. Born in Belleville, Ill., of parents of French descent, her real name was Rosalind Gull (originally Culligan) until her marriage to the prominent Beverly Hills businessman, Hernande Courtright.

MACARTHUR Capitol News Service SACRAMENTO (CNS)—Political eyes now are all turned toward March 3, when the 1962 budget session of the state legislature opens here. While campaigns are not by a long way forgotten, legislators and state officials alike are planning to make political hay during the session. For the legislative session gives the solons, all but 20 of whom must run for office this year, opportunity to "do or die" in the interests of their constituents, and go home from the short, 30-day budget parlay with their brief-cases full of arguments as to why they should be re-elected. But try as the legislators will, they will not escape the voting of what appears at this point to be upcoming as the biggest budget in the history of the state—well over a billion dollars, which includes a $38 million dollar increase in the general operations expenditures of the state. Tentative figures on the budget include $80 million dollars for the state's building program, biggest chunk of which is nearly $19 million for mental institutions. Education sells $17 million for state colleges, and an additional $14 million is song: by the University of California for expansion and improvements. Three years ago, Rosalind was asked to put a television show together, which she did. Her format included violins, harp, male vocal quartet, a modern ballet team and a piano accompanist for her songs. "I had a nice, soft, easy-going program worked up," Roz said, but before I knew it, the station thought the harp should go, because of budget problems. The quarter idea was eliminated next, with the violins following. Pretty odd which guarantees against any such huge surplus in the future although it cannot dispose of the $150 million, is to cut back taxes. Assemblyman Harold Levering and other legislators have prepared a bill to reduce the sales ta to 2½ per cent and cut back income tax collections. Whether Levering and his group, most of whom are on the conservative Republican side, will be joined by a group of liberal Democrats in effecting the cut, remains to be seen. In any event, Julian Beck, Bourbon floor leader, has announced he personally is in favor of tax cuts. But Governor Warren has announced that this isn't the time for a tax cut in view of the fact the world situation could change overnight, with a truce in Korea, and this would once again cut down the state's income. OPPOSING PHILOSOPHIES: Consequently, the legislative session will see opposing philosophies, on whether to cut taxes, or whether to continue the high income to the state, and lay the money away for things that are needed, such as new institutions, new schools and additional state building programs. Undoubtedly, the taxpayer will be asked later to dig deep for those things, but even so, there are those who believe even if the state does work on the lay-a-way plan its future demands will be nonetheless ex- Year old Jimmy Hardy will guest on the Frank Sinatra show over KNXT (2) at 4...

Copyright, 1952, by Universal Radio and TV Features Syndicate Fullertonjan Makes Memorial Present A check for $500 from Lloyd N. Cookson of Fullerton, given in memory of his wife, Agnes Cookson, was among recent memorial gifts received by Casa Colina, according to Frances Eleanor Smith, executive vice president of the home for crippled children at Chino. The work at the home is aided materially by people who send gifts in memory of their loved ones. Tentative figures on the budget include $89 million dollars for the state's building program, biggest chunk of which is nearly $19 million for mental institutions. Education asks $17 million for state colleges, and an additional $14 million is sought by the University of California for expansion and improvements. The $89 million would be taken from the capital outlay and savings funds, but when other special fund programs are added, along with the highway program, the grand total reaches $214,510,418. SURPLUS ROW: It will be no problem for the legislators to spend $150 million, or nearly that, which is surplus money. A surplus in state parlance means the government has taken that much more out of the taxpayers pockets than it has authorized in expenditures. When the current budget surplus was estimated, the Department of Finance thought it would have only $13 million surplus, a nice comfortable amount. Yet the amazing growth of the state, the increase in retail trade, the Korean War employment boom, and other factors, have increased the total to more than ten times the Department's original estimate. Comes now, the question of disposing of the surplus. Unthinkable is the suggestion that in some manner, it be returned to the taxpayers. Consequently, the question is how to slice up the fat pork barrel so everyone will be happy. TAX REDUCTION? One meth- whether to continue the high income to the state, and lay the money away for things that are needed, such as new institutions, new schools and additional state building programs. Undoubtedly, the taxpayer will be asked later to dig deep for these things, but even so, there are those who believe even if the state does work on the lay-a-way plan its future demands will be nonetheless exacting, as there is no end in sight to the growth and development of California.
