MELLEN Assistant Advertising Manager RALPH ROULAND Classified Advertising Manager JIM SLOBODIAN Sports Advisor DON YOUNG Circulation Manager Today is February 29... To many a spinster (and to many a wary bachelor, too) the most significant thing about this new year of 1952 is that its February contains 29 days. Here's a happy thought for Leap Year huntresses, from statistics just released by the Census Bureau: Even though the U. S. now has more women than men, there are more single men than single women in the most marrying ages, from 20 to 55. Not only is there a man for every girl in that age bracket, but there are two million men left over. There’s no reason for any sweet young thing to stay single, with statistics like those and a Leap Year license to take the initiative! -Colony QuipsBy the Gazette Farm Editor WE ARE GOING to make a slight prediction: Florida Mutual, that great bulwark of the Florida grower, will emerge from this test stronger and better equipped to wrestle with and see that all shippers and processors do not make a sucker out of the “end man” in the line. Don't forget that for the past three years Mutual has doubled, tripled, and better, the “take” of the Florida grower. It has had a tremendous effect on the whole economy of that southern state. WASHINGTON — President Truman had a frank exchange with the other day with Catholic Congressman Clement Zablocki Wisconsin regarding Truman blast at Dictator Franco of Spain. Congressman Zablocki didnt’ argue of the president’s action and bluntly said so. “It was most unfortunate that your remarks were made about the same time that General Eisenhower also spoke out against Spain,” declared the Wisconsin legislator. “I naturally feel that we are going to get more out of the dollars we spend for alding Atlantic Pacific nations if Spain belongs to the pact. I agree that conditions like Spain are none (too happy, but Yugoslavia isn’t a democracy either and yet we have given Tito millions in aid.” Truman replied that his criticism was directed solely at Francisco and not at the Spanish people. Franco was chiefly responsible for the “intolerance” suffered what he called “that minority minorities”—about 30,000 Spanish Protestants. “In some parts of Spain Protectors can’t even bury their dead during the day or mark the graves with tombstones for fear of inciting demonstrations,” clared Truman, “Dictatorships encourage that sort of thing.” Zablocki agreed the situation was “regrettable,” but added: “We have the problem right here in the United States Catholics, Jews and Negroes, or for that matter, anybody with a foreign-sounding name, are badly injured in war.” -Colony QuipsBy the Gazette Farm Editor WE ARE GOING to make a slight prediction: Florida Mutual, that great bulwark of the Florida grower, will emerge from this test stronger and better equipped to wrestle with and see that all shippers and processors do not make a sucker out of the "end man" in the line. Don't forget that for the past three years Mutual has doubled, tripled, and better, the "take" of the Florida grower. It has had a tremendous effect on the whole economy of that southern state. No one in California now denies that Mutual has been of great good to the entire national citrus picture. Everyone who knows anything about the California picture knows that a California Mutual, designed to fit our needs, would practically insure close to parity for the California grower. But for selfish reasons some will not admit this. Some who CONTROL we mean. So California growers will not be allowed to have a Mutual. So we come up with a suggestion. How breathless the California industry has been while waiting for this suggestion we leave to your own imagination. It is simple. It is foolproof. It will not cut off anyone's pay. All that is needed is a green light from the California grower and he does not even have to be asked, a room up in the attic of the Kremlin and a little effort by four men in the California industry who KNOW what it is all about. We have these men, too. HERE IS THE plan: Take Paul Armstrong, Robblins Russell, Arthur Clark and Romer Johnson, put them around a table in the attic room and tell them the California grower needs a return much closer to parity than he has been receiving. Tell them the California grower does not want or expect a miracle. Tell them that the grower thinks they can do a real job working together. Tell them to go ahead, put a floor price on citrus and get going, that if they make mistakes it will be OK with the grower because he will know that in the long run his returns will improve. Just tell them to sit down and put in their best thoughts for the California citrus grower. There is no question in our mind but that this sort of operation would be just what the doctor ordered for the California grower. In the set-up the California grower would have the best out of each of his present marketing agencies. Each one of these men would have his hands freed from all the mean sectional jealousies which have not always operated, shall we say, to the benefit of the whole California industry. Control, you say? Then what do you call the present prorate? The above plan would keep the only part of the Marketing Agreement which has really worked: the department which gets out in the field, estimates the amount of fruit, the rate of growth and all the rest of the things about the order which have been almost perfect. The part that has to do with regulating shipping so the grower would get closer to parity has been a miserable failure. Or do you think a 40 per cent job is adequate? Yes, folks, the valencia grower received about 40 per cent of parity for his fruit under the prorate act in 1951. That is not adequate. It is a failure. The OAC, therefore, is an abject failure. We have the problem right here in the United States. Catholics, Jews and Negroes, or for that matter, anybody with a foreign-sounding name, are badly treated in our Ku Klux areas. We have been reading lately about ruffians stoning synagogues." Unfortunately, that is true agreed Truman, but went on to point out that he, as president was doing everything possible stamp out intolerance while Franco wasn't lifting a finger. "As president of the United States," he said, "I will not conpromise with the persecution minorities either in this country or anywhere in the world." Zablocki observed that the situation in Spain could be corrected a lot quicker if we took Spain into the Atlantic Pact; but the president disagreed. He said he had his doubts about any real nigious tolerance as long as Frank remained dictator. Taft Battles Bradley Senator Taft is conducting his private war against the Job Chiefs of Staff not only in public speeches, but behind closed doors. He even singled out General Brailey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs for special attack the other day during a private session of the Joint Committee on the Economic Report. Sen. Ralph Flanders, Vermont Republican, gave Taft an operating by protesting: "I have no confidence whatever that the natural professional way of thinking . . . will ever be sat isfied with any scale of military development and expenditure." It is just in the nature of this case that they should not be." Immediately Taft interceded. "My confidence in the Job Chiefs of Staff is somewhat unset," he said, "when I read the testimony of the chairman of t The above plan would keep the only part of the Marketing Agreement which has really worked: the department which gets out in the field, estimates the amount of fruit, the rate of growth and all the rest of the things about the order which have been almost perfect.

Yes, folks, the valencia grower received about 40 per cent of parity for his fruit under the prorate act in 1951. That is not adequate. It is a failure. The OAC, therefore, is an abject failure. The four men mentioned above are professionals. They know what the score is and they could correct the things that are being done to the grower if released from narrowness which surround them. The same sort of narrowness which kept the Hatfields and McCoy's afeudin' until the last one was shot. Well it's a lot of fun to ruminate. And hope. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago February 1877 The commissioners appointed to close the affairs of the City of Anaheim have finished their labors and the property will probably be sold to the Town Trustees on Friday next. Our dog-catcher has taken up 16 tagless dogs. His earnings since the ordinance went into effect are $3.50, which he intends applying toward the erection of a six-story brick building on the burnt district. A host-black made his appearance on the streets yesterday. We can now assume the dignity befitting an organized town, and have our shoots blocked. Mr. Wiley is a good man to have around. He buys grain of the farmers and gives them money to pay their subscriptions with. He shoots ducks and brings them over to the hungry printer. He is a valuable adjunct to a printing office. He has our hearty thanks. A keg of very nice beer was brought to our office on Monday from the brewery of Mr. T. P. Hinde. We tender our hearty thanks to the doner. H. C. Wiley, a nimrod of great repute and G. H. Kellogg, killed 153 birds during a hunt on Monday. And now the New York Sun copies our story about the tender regard shown by a flock of geese. The Planter's hotel has been crowded with guests for the past week. We are glad to see that M Fischer is prospering, and the travel to this section is more assuring. A batch or Chinamen we brought before Judge Bailey yet terday, charged with gambling. The evidence for the prosecuted failed to bring the charge home and the defendants were discharged.

Hal Boyle TV-RADIOLOGIC 'Time for Beany' Program Hal Boyle NEW YORK (AP)—Millions of lovelorn single girls are moping this leap year day because they aren't among the harried married. "What does it really take to win a husband?" they wonder. The answer to this has stumped soothsayers and psychiatrists. Scientists have been unable to come up with a test tube solution. Now business is trying to solve the problem. For the creation of new families is becoming more and more important to industry. If people quit getting married, the nation would soon smother with unsold refrigerators, washing machines, and layettes. I have at hand the results of a little business research into the matrimonial field. It is a survey made by a shadow wave, a Lever Brothers home permanent. This firm polled about 100 guys and 100 gals on this question: "What are the five most important weapons in a girl's arsenal needed to get her man and make 1952 a successful leap year? The returns are in and, I must say, very distressing. The disturbing truth is that there are dramatic and fundamental differences of opinion between the sexes on just what qualities a man looks for in a mate. Even where there were areas of agreement, the emphasis differed. Both sexes agreed the girl ought to be well-groomed and attractive in appearance. But the girls themselves stressed neatness, while the bachelors voted heavily for more definite feminine allure. "Pleading personality" was high on the men's list; the women voted with tombstones for fear of writing demonstrations," de-Truman, "Dictatorships en-gee that sort of thing." Stocki agreed the situation regrettable," but added: "We have the problem right in the United States. Lies, Jews and Negroes, or, what matter, anybody with reign-sounding name, are treated in our Ku Klux Klan." We have been reading about ruffians stoning ogues." Fortunately, that is true, Truman, but went on to out that he, as president, being everything possible to out intolerance while Fran-n't lifting a finger. President of the United "he said, 'I will not com- with the persecution of leses either in this country where in the world." Stocki observed that the sit-in Spain could be corrected quicker if we took Spain the Atlantic Pact; but the ant disagreed. He said he doubts about any real re-tolerance as long as Franco dictator.

DANSON HOLLYWOOD — I wondered what Cecil, the Seasick Sea Serpent, was so excited about the other day when I walked on the "Time for Beany" set at KTLA. Cecil got me in a corner to tell me all about the big birthday party for the show that will be telecast tonight from Channel 5, at 6:30. He was wondering just how many candles would be on the cake, "because sea serpents." he said, "average about 1000 years to the ordinary person's one." In his deep voice Cecil broke forth with "Golly . . . wonder if they'll have four thousand candles on the cake for me?" Cecil, got his name as the Seasick Sea Serpent when he was just a baby serpent. His mother used to rock him on the ocean, and almost always, Cecil suffered from sea sickness. He has an underwater home at Sea-serpent Sump, where he now lives in an oyster bed. His underwater pals include: Looey, the Loan Shark; Lulu, the Lazy Lake Snake; the Wham Clam, the three Itty FITtys, the Irritable Oyster and the Race Track Trout. He also has a brother, Deisel. They call him that because he's part Injun.

Both sexes agreed the girl ought to be well-groomed and attractive in appearance. But the girls themselves stressed neatness, while the bachelors voted heavily for more definite feminine allure. "Pleasing personality" was high on the men's list; the women voted for "charm," and just what that covers remains a mystery. "The ability to cook rated near the top with the lads, but the lazies hardly even mentioned the kitchen art, perhaps because of a growing womanly conviction that cooking is something done only in the back rooms of restaurants. Many men put down "a sense of humor." The girls worded it more often "the ability and willingness to humor him." In general the bachelor girls frequently swore out a complaint against Marshal Wartinberg for battery, which case will be tried before Judge Clark this morning. Mr. D. E. Miles has been interviewing our merchants on the subject of forming an association for the purpose of advancing the business interests of Anaheim—a sort of Chamber of Commerce. The idea is generally regarded as a good one, and a meeting will soon be called to place the society on a permanent footing.

Cecil, Beany and the entire gang have been on many great pictured the prospective bride as a nice clean girl—it was amazing how many mentioned cleanliness—in love with hearth and home, conversationally gifted and so informed about her husband's business affairs she could even help him figure out his income tax. This ideal bride, seen through the men's eyes, however, could best be portrayed as Rita Hayworth with her vocal chords removed, standing in a boudoir with a frying pan in her hand. The differences between the sexes showed up most clearly in the matter of conversation. Most women were dreamily sure men yearn for a wife to "be able to discuss many subjects intelligently," be "a good conversationalist," or "a lively talker." The fellows themselves, on the other hand, showed a morbid dread of wifely loquacity, or, as they put it, "nagging." One said flatly: "She should remember that the less she has to say, the less she will have to explain." Only one male traitor listed "interesting conversationalist" as desirable. Oddly enough, he was a dentist. Many, many girls in the survey wrote down "common sense" as a husband-winning trait. The men were unanimously silent on this subject, either through sheer male gallantry or because of the feeling that, after all, a girl can't have everything. TELE-TIPS . . .

The average male shopper is no match for the butcher. On the other hand, the woman, who knows her meat, can match the cold, cruel gaze of the butcher and tell him off in quick time if he is trying to palm off a poor hunk of meat on her. The average male shopper, not knowing the difference between a pork hock and a hunk of beeswax (and sometimes the difference is negligible) will let the butcher get the upper hand nine times out of 10 and will take home a word of advice to keep it down any more," he allowed, letting it crunch down on the meat block, which showed a tendency to buckle.
