TREODORE B. KUCHEL Publisher MAX-SEBLER Assistant Publisher LEONARD KREIDT City Editor NEIL DYANLEY Advertising Manager A. E. NELLEY Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager JIM SLOBODIAN Sports Advisor DON YOUNG Circulation Manager Whose money is it...? Although everyone knows more or less, of the long-standing invasions of state's right by the federal government through controls lodged on the subventions made by the Congress, this factor in government financing is seldom brought out with the clarity shown by the state controller, Anaheim's Thomas H. Kuchel, in a recent address before the California Taxpayers association, made in Los Angeles. "I do not believe," Kuchel said, "that it is generally understood that the federal government places in the California treasury annually an amount equal to 20 per cent of our state revenues." "Last year, the United States allocated, of course with restrictions as to use, $105 million dollars to California, equalling 20 per cent of our own state revenue." Kuchel also pointed out that of the state's $985 million revenue last year, approximately half is subvented to local governments, for roads, schools and other city and county functions. The revenue last year, he points out, was 63 per cent higher than it was five years ago. What should be a tax base for the state, Kuchel says, has been invaded "here by the federal government, and there by the local government." He cited inheritance taxes as one instance of intrusion by the federals, and the sales tax by cities as an instance of local government's invasion of the state's tax base. "So in the field of subventions," he says, "we're seemingly inextricably bound together, and it's not wholly a pretty sight. I need not dwell." WASHINGTON GP — It still isn't too late to win the "cold war of ideas" with Russia, GOP Congressman O. K. Armstrong of Missouri told the conference on psychological strategy last week. But he warned that time is running out. "The free world is losing the psychological struggle," declared Armstrong. "The enslaved peoples are losing hope, and the neutral peoples are losing faith." "The Missourian branded as 'false' the assumption by many that the 'only way to everthrow bolshevism is by another major war—a world-wide atomic war that would wreck civilization irretrievably.' The contrary is true, he said, because we would drain our resources and manpower until we became so weak that no armaments could protect us." "Do you not see that this is a policy of fear of hopelessness, of reliance upon weapons that will neither prevent nor win future wars?" asked Armstrong. "Let us realize this great and fundamental truth: the struggle against communism is the struggle for the minds and hearts of mankind. It cannot be won by guns and bombs alone." "The strongest weapon we hold in our hands is truth itself. Our strongest and most valuable asset in the crusade to overthrow communism, without war, is the burning desire of captive peoples for freedom." "Let us then move boldly to prevent further aggression and harm." "I do not believe," Kuchel said, "that it is generally understood that the federal government places in the California treasury annually an amount equal to 20 per cent of our state revenues." "Last year, the United States allocated, of course with restrictions as to use, $193 million dollars to California, equalling 20 per cent of our own state revenue, and I observe that is about the way it's been for the last five years." Most of the federal monies, the controller pointed out, are disbursed to or expended for local agencies for local purposes. Nearly 78 per cent of last year's federal subventions were paid over, or used for such local functions as social welfare, education, roads, hospital construction, etc., with the balance remaining in the state treasury for state purposes, always, however, in accordance with federal rules. The trend, he says, has been in favor of larger local subventions by the federal government, and smaller state ones. "During recent years," the controller says, "most particularly in matters of fiscal concern, we have witnessed a hodge-podge of overlapping statutes, which have tied us together where we ought to have acted separately, and which have dealt bruising blows to the almost out-moded theory of state sovereignty." IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Piles of Anatole Ganetto By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago February 1877 The ladies, whose dear little hearts have been sad at the prospect of having their lovely ball dresses soiled by the horrid mud, will be awfully glad to learn that the committee of arrangements of the Mesonite hall with a thoughtful government, and there by the local government." He cited inheritance taxes as one instance of intrusion by the federals, and the sales tax by cities as an instance of local government's invasion of the state's tax base. "So in the field of subventions," he says, "we're seemingly inextricably bound together, and it's not wholly a pretty sight. I need not dwell on the obvious fact that as a tax dollar passed through different government agencies its way to being ultimately spent, some of it gets nicked off in the process for handling charges. "What I do desire to point to here is that subventions don't have to be, and in many federal instances are not, monies to be used in the spender's wisdom. Thus, federal subventions to California, and to all states, are accompanied by instructions as to how California shall spend them. "Talk of state sovereignty! Don't dare, California, use your own good judgment on California conditions and problems. Ensure to follow what Washington directs. If you don't you risk losing federal larges." Every time you add a new kind of federal bounty to the states, you injure state sovereignty and lessen the reason for its continuing independent existence, and add to the cost of administering the new project." PENETRATING JAPAN The Kremlin is secretly scheming to slip Japan a Trojan Horse. Here is the inside story: After V-J day, Japan's Kurile Islands were handed over to Russia as a prize of war. Immediately Russia began making communists out of the natives, and has now built up a strong communist government on the islands. So the secret Soviet plan is to offer the Kuriles back to Japan—on one condition: that the natives be allowed to elect their own local government. On the surface, this will appear as a great gesture showing that Russia has no imperialistic ambitions. But the truth is that the Kuriles will be a communist stronghold, which the Kremlin hopes will pollute all Japan. In other words, the Kremlin is willing to give up the Kuriles on the gamble that the Kuriles will admit more communists into the Japanese 75 Years Ago February 1877 The ladies, whose dear little hearts have been sad at the prospect of having their lovely ball dresses soiled by the horrid mud, will be awfully glad to learn that the committee of arrangements of the Masonic ball, with a thoughtfulness which is entirely novel in a C. of A., have arranged that a carriage shall be in readiness between the hours of 8 and 10 p.m., to convey ladies from their residences to the ball-room. Those desiring conveyance will please leave orders at M. A. Mendelson's clothing Emporium. Dr. George H. Bailey yesterday received some fresh Bovine Virus, direct from the Bovine Farm at Philadelphia. All desire to be vaccinated will please call at his office in Kroeger's building. Centre street. Mr. Carothers informed us yesterday that his home-cured hams and bacon are meeting a ready sale, and that in order to supply the demand he must enter into the business on a much more extended scale than he had anticipated. Among the sales recently made was a large lot of bacon, to a firm in Arizona. 50 Years Ago February, 1862 Miss Elizabeth Burger of Los Angeles has purchased Mrs. Vinson's millinery and will continue the business at the old stand. Clarence Groat is down from Los Angeles constructing cement ditches on the Chambers place at Miraflores. J. Harry Whitaker and Charlie Landell were in town from Buena Park on Tuesday. Mrs. Henry Strodthoff is home from Mexico on a visit to her mother, Mrs. W. J. Fay. Miss Alice Carver is in Los Angeles inspecting new lines of millinery at the wholesalers and will remain two weeks. She goes thence to San Francisco. She will select a spring stock which will arrive in time for the opening of her mother's new millinery store. Mr. and Mrs. B. Moulist were in town from Buena Park on Monday. 25 Years Ago February, 1927 Two hundred persons, members of the six Lions clubs of the county and their wives—gave an entertainment at the fair grounds Friday evening. The Santa Ana club opened the program with Mrs. A. G. Tucker conducting an impromptu speaking contest. Without previous notice she called upon Mrs. Z. B. West to discuss the subject, "My first romance," Mrs. Glen Tidwell told about "Bathing suits," Mrs. E. H. Rowland, "Does Mortar Keep Bricks Together or Apart," "a Lion wife." Featuring Mrs. August Eltesta as theatre manager, Orange women offered a burlesque on theatre censorship. Brea presented some beautiful chorus girls among them being Mrs. Peggy Craig, Mrs. A: R. Burns, Mrs. Gearhart, Mrs. Lulu Friend and Mrs. Freda Ward. Ray Mendoza and Mrs. Blanch Epstein put on a clever stunt for Anaheim "Organ grinder and monkey"—this stunt was clever and well executed. The evening concluded with dancing. Light refreshments were served during the evening. Britain now produces about 40 per cent of all the food she consumes.

DANSON HOLLYWOOD — I just received a letter from Bobby Gilbert, the entertainer, who features and originates “The Talking Violin,” now in Korea with a USO overseas entertainment unit. The letter, which I am going to print in part, gives some of the highlights of experience of show units in this particular theater of operations. Portions of Bobby’s letter are as follows: “We thought that we were going directly to Korea, but instead went directly to Japan, and from there to Okinawa. The trip to Korea came later on in our tour. “When we landed in Korea, our first show was done out in the open, in a blinding snow storm, boy, was it cold! It would have done your heart good to hear our boys yell and scream when they saw our lovely girls dressed in their evening gowns. You can imagine how cold the girls must have been out there, but they're good trumpets, and I am more than proud of them. “We did a show in the famous “Punch Bowl,” for the Ethiopian soldiers as well as our men. 10 below zero and three miles from the front line. As our show progressed, you could hear the artillery whizzing overhead. You see Tom, our show took place directly in front of the artillery batteries that were giving fire support to the boys that were suffering with the cold as well as the enemy up there.” father was a champion six-day rider . . .

Death is the final leveler, but the common cold in life is the greatest equalizer. It is the most democratic of diseases, creeping with equal impartiality into the nostrils of the aristocratic and the bromeliad tubes of the most lowly. The common cold links us in a fine mortality, a brotherhood of susceptibility. Like money is a medium of exchange. The colonel's lady can give it to Juice O'Grady, and a peasant can relate it to his king. Even Joe Stallion can't lower his celebrated Ice Curtain on this invisible bond that joins all mankind. One "kerchoo!" makes the whole world rin. Like love, the common cold is caused by a non-filterable virus. And as in the case of love, people rail against its effects, but secretly enjoy them. Again, like love, it can really be cured only by the passage of time. So many drugs have been developed to defeat the common cold it is a wonder one of these doesn't really work. People happily ply themselves with lozenges, nose drops, cough drops, bromides, salves, unguents, ointments, pain-dullers, gargles, ultra violet rays, antihistamines and prohistin mines. There are 1001 remedies for a cold. But my conviction is that nobody ever really got over a cold until he was tired of it. When you really get tired of it.

Here they were, all cold from their ordeal up on the hill, and they were not clean in body or in clothing ... their clothing was still stained with the oil from the "C" rations that they must have been eating for at least three weeks. Also you could see the black soot that had collected on their field jackets from fires that they dared to light during the day.

This is such a normal practice in most offices today that a sheak is defined as "somebody who tries to catch a cold before it's his turn." In the better run offices colds by an unwritten rule are now granted on the principle of seniority, just like vacations. That, of course, is just what a common cold is—a vacation from reality. And if any doctor ever discovers a one-day sure cure for a cold he had better keep it to himself, or the race of man will wish the meddling busybody to lie in an unmarked grave. People just couldn't stay human without the relaxing relief of the good old common cold.
