VOLUME LXXXI Anaheim's FIRST Newspaper ANAHED Warren Gives Solons Record Budget Today, and Says: 'Don't Cut Taxes' SACRAMENTO (P)—Governor Warren turned in the largest state budget in California history today with a plea to the newly convened legislature: don't cut taxes. Blaming inflation and California's continuing growth, he asked for $1,185,397,270 for ever-rising state costs for the 12 months beginning July 1—and predicted even heavier spending in the years ahead. The total is $82,063,743 more than official estimates of 1951-52 outlay. In his message to the noon opening of the 30-day budget session, however, he referred to his third billion dollar budget in four years as "one of minimum requirements." At the same time, Warren urged stopgap appropriations of $55 million for the state's GI farm-home purchase program and $40 million for school building pending a November election vote on new bond issues. He also favored a $12 million boost for support of needy school districts. Highlights of Warren Message SACRAMENTO (P)—Highlights from Governor Warren's message to the legislature today: "Our state is in a sound financial condition. No new or added taxes are required. The present rates will meet the budget expenditures and leave with an estimated general fund surplus of approximately 70 million dollars on June 30, 1953." "The budget . . . is one of minimum requirements to carry out policies and functions already established by the legislature." "For several years we have been endeavoring to take our state out of the asylum age and establish it in the hospital age, where a high quality of medical care working toward complete cure is substituted for mere custodial care . . . Six years ago the average length of time patients remained in our state hospitals for serious mental illnesses was 6.6 months. At the present time the average length of such hospitalization is 4.5 months." "Traffic fatalities increased 15.6 per cent on our rural highways last year. The fact is the patrol is of necessity spread too thinly. We do not have enough officers to man our highways." "We can not stop building as long as our population is increasing at the rate of 450,000 each year, and particularly after we have been slowed down by defense programs." At the same time, Warren urged stopgap appropriations of $55 million for the state's GI farm-home purchase program and $40 million for school building pending a November election vote on new bond issues. He also favored a $12 million boost for support of needy school districts. The governor listed these problems among 14 subjects for a special session he called to run alongside the budget meeting—restricted by law to fiscal matters. Others included: Civil defense; once-vetoed legislation to permit freedom for sex offenders who volunteer for castration, and refinancing of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay bridge to provide $50 million worth of new approaches. Warren, a candidate for the Republican nomination for president, took cognizance of election year demands by some legislators and business groups to cut state taxes back to the 1943-49 level. He acknowledged the state has (Continued on Page 5) Local Garage Cleared of OPS Violations Office of Price Stabilization officials in San Diego today said they will take no action, for the present, at least in the case of Edward G. Robinson Jr.'s tire purchase here from a part-time employee of DuBois and Paschall's garage on N. Lemon st. OPS said the garage was not connected to the deal in any way, that U. J. Ledger, the employee, obtained two white-sidewall tires for Robinson in La Habra, carted them to Santa Ana and installed them on Robinson's car. Ledger, according to OPS, presented Robinson with a bill for $139.81 and received in return a check for $130.81. Calling Robinson's attention to the error, Ledger demanded the full amount, according to OPS, and Robinson VICTIM OF FRENCH AIR DISASTER—American ballet dancer VICTIM OF FRENCH AIR DISASTER—American ballet dancer Joan Katzman, 21, shown rehearsing for a Parisian show with fellow dancer Rene Bon, was among 38 persons killed today when a four-engined Air France plane crashed near Nice, France.

American Dancer Dies in French Airplane Crash NICE, France UP — An Air France airliner crashed in an olive grove near this Riviera fun spot today, killing 37 persons, including an American ballet dancer and two French actresses. A woman taken alive from the wreckage was reported in critical condition. The four-engine plane had just taken off from Nice airport for Paris. It lost altitude, then smashed into bits in the olive grove, just missing a group of houses where 20 families live. Airport employees said pieces of sea gull's wings and feathers had been found in the air intakes of the plane's engines, and this might have caused the crash. Air France officials in Paris could not confirm this. The two left en route.

"After a thorough study of the needs of civilians on the home front and servicemen overseas for Red Cross services, chapter leaders set this figure as an absolute minimum mark to be sought for the drive," Fund Chairman Bert Arnold declared. The campaign chieftain underscored the following Red Cross programs: Collecting of blood to meet increasing demands from the military, civil defense and Southland medical leaders; All-out participation in the civil defense preparedness program providing food, clothing and shelter in time of natural disaster or enemy attack; Training the civilian population in self-help techniques through first aid and home nursing classes; Service to the armed forces, which includes emergency financial assistance to servicemen and their dependents, emergency communications between fighting men overseas and their families at home. In emphasizing the importance of the Red Cross blood program we must bear in mind that Southern California, through its geographical location, has become the key pipeline of whole blood direct to the military in Korea. We also must realize that it takes money to carry out this project; Arnold said, there are heavy costs involved in processing, typing, cross matching and preparing blood for its life-saving miracles across the Pacific and in civilian hospitals of Orange county. The responsibilities of the Red Cross to provide food, shelter and clothing on a mass care basis in time of any disaster was tested during the flood of last January when some 350 persons in the Los Alamitos area were evacuated and given food and shelter until the waters receded. In Anaheim proper several families were cared for during the flood, and the disaster committee was on the job to give aid where needed. All these services must be financed by Red Cross through contributions given during the annual fund-raising time. The organization for raising the funds for this year is as follows: Bert Arnold, general chairman; Glenn McCloud, chairman of the Industrial division; William Walker, chairman of special groups; Mrs. T. W. Clark, chairman of the rural division. The business division is being handled by three chairmen: John Williams, E. L. Baker and William Sowder. Rev. J. K. Saville is chairman of the residential section. The residential section is being canvassed by members of the Assistance League, Altrusa Club, Business and Professional Women's Club, many other clubs and organizations and practically all of the churches will have some workers in the field.
