THEODORE B. KUCHEL MAX BESLER LEONARD KREIDT NEIL STANLEY G. E. MELLEN RALPH ROULAND DON YOUNG Farmers and freedom... At the moment the most important problem facing farmers is that of achieving a better public understanding of our agriculture, its achievements, its problems of labor and material shortages, and its struggles with inflation in production and marketing costs which give rise to consumer complaints about the level of food prices. Farmers have demonstrated during the nineteen forties and again since Korea that they are prompt to respond with increased production under favorable demand conditions. They have also demonstrated a great degree of flexibility in shifting the pattern of farm production to meet the changing needs of our growing population during periods of national danger and general economic growth. It is vitally important that this flexibility of our agriculture be maintained. There is nothing more productive will be enhanced by a more generous application of price ceilings or price supports under present conditions. Fortunately the farm segment of our economy now occupies the strongest financial position it has ever known. This is in very striking contrast to the situation which farmers faced during the nineteen twenties and nineteen thirties. All segments of the economy will benefit if this healthy economic position of our agriculture can be maintained. This, if accomplished, will assure that the productivity and flexibility of our agriculture will be maintained and will enable farmers to make their most effective contribution to a strong and free economy for our nation. (From a talk by Jesse W. Tapp, executive vice-president of Bank of America and internationally known agricultural company). WASHINGTON—For some it has been a mystery as the Navy, with carriers planes off the Korean coast not participate in the tour of combating the reds' jetled MIGs instead of leaving the Air Force. Navy pilots among the best and most geous in the world, but in a few cases, they have kept a safe distance from MIGs. This column is now able give the answer. The Navy not been able to develop plane able to stand up after the Russian MIGs, and both Army-Navy rivalry, has unwilling to accept an Air type engine with which it suits the job. This is no reflection on thousands of Navy airmen have been itching to get into Korean jet fighting, but rather the brass hits at the top where been unwilling to accept the role of the Unification act. Investigation of this riot also reveals shocking waste travagance and inefficiency which once again seems to suit from lack of unification. Today the Navy's Bureau Aeronautics is spending $57 each for a Pratt-Whitney engine, the J-48-P-6, for use in fighter planes, when it could better Allison engine, the J-16 for only $31,000. "Unacceptable" Engine The Allison jet weighs less than the Pratt-Whitney low-pressure engine, and has given an OK by the Navy. How about it...? The television industry isn't seeing red anymore—financially, that is. The infant giant on the American scene is already over most of its growing pains that center around the pocketbook. The Federal Communications commission reveals that the industry as a whole earned more than $43 million before taxes last year as compared with a $9 million loss in '50 and a $25 million deficit the year before that. Now if they could just get some good programs... Plagued... The communist policy has long been that of claiming credit for virtually everything good in the world while blaming the west for everything that isn't. As a result, we learn from Moscow that, for example, all modern inventions were the work of Russians. (Thomas Edison was an imposter). Also in line with this policy we now hear Moscow and Peiping accusing us of using bacteriological warfare against them because of a plague which is reported to be sweeping North Korea and parts of China. We are called "beasts," "savages" and a lot of other less-than-complimentary names. To us, it's the all-too-familiar line which only the lunacy of totalitarianism can conceive. It has been with us more or less ever since Hitler's rise to power. Baseless though it is, it is not without effect among the masses who hear nothing else but what the red leaders would have them hear. Yet, some observers believe that in their latest tirade against the west the communist leaders may have outsmarted themselves. Here's why: If using bacteriological warfare makes us "beasts" (even though we haven't used it), then the communists will also be "beasts" if they should resort to its use. On the other hand, if they are not preparing to meet the threat of bacteriological warfare the people of the Iron Curtain countries will wonder why not. To put it another way: The "infallible" Soviet leaders, who with great righteousness denounce our alleged use of bacteria, can't admit that they are doing something along this line and can't announce that they are not. They are on somewhat of a spot. Hal Boyle NEW YORK (P)—Things a man learns from reading his mail: It is even more important for older workers than young workers to avoid a glaring lack of home position of our agriculture can be maintained. This, if accomplished, will assure that the productivity and flexibility of our agriculture will be maintained and will enable farmers to make their most effective contribution to a strong and free economy for our nation. (From a talk by Jesse W. Tapp, executive vice-president of Bank of America and internationally known agricultural expert at the Minneapolis Farm Forum). Today the Navy's Bureau Aeronautics is spending $575 each for a Pratt-Whitney engine, the J-48-P-6, for use in fighter planes, when it could better Allison engine, the J-16 for only $31,000. "Unacceptable" Engine The Allison jet weighs less than the Pratt-Whitney low-pressure engine, and has given an OK by the Naval Test Center at Patuxent, whereas the Pratt-Whitney has not passed inspection. About Feb. 25, Patuxent regrets to the Navy's board of inspectors and survey in Washington the Pratt-Whitney J-48 was acceptable." Despite this, total of 2435 of the Pratt-Wilhite engines already had been ordered and will cost a current price $50,046.57; while only 210 A engines were ordered at a cost price of $31,000. The extra cost to the taxpayer $48,000,000. Meanwhile, the J-48 built Pratt-Whitney flies 150 miles hour slower than the RMIGs. In jet warfare, of course speed is all-important, and飞 to produce a fast Navy jet is the reason-Navy pilot sitting on the sidelines of Korean coast today. Navy officials, when asked why Pratt-Whitney was given a contract for a more expensive engine when Allison was ducting a better engine for third less, had no comment. It is known, however, that of the Navy's civilian engineering Vernon Haynes, has protested vigorously inside Navy and has been arguing the Allison engine. Mr. Hay being a civilian, presumably affected by Navy-Air Force valry. Scores of other young navy officers also feel strongly that Navy should accept the A engine. They point out, how that if the Navy ordered the son jet job, it would be made der Air Force supervision at dianapolis, since the Allison is under Air Force "cognisance." On the other hand, Pratt Whitney at East Hertford. Hal Boyle NEW YORK (AP)—Things a man learns from reading his mail: It is even more important for older workers than young workers to avoid a sloppy look... in the boss's eye carelessness in personal grooming is a "time-to-retire him" signal... a survey by the Northwestern National Life Insurance company of 3000 male policy-holders showed only 24 per cent wanted to quit altogether at 65. Some 39 per cent wanted to keep their present jobs, and 37 per cent wanted to slow down a bit but keep doing something useful. Boxing has been under intermittent public attack ever since the days when the Romans pummeled each other to death in the arena... but it is still big business... some 215,000 men engaged in prize fights in 1951, of whom 24,205 were professionals... there were four deaths, but only one was in a professional bout... Boxing gloves were first used in modern times in a bout in Paris in 1818... an Englishman wen... this is not so strange, however... his opponent was English, too. Racing is known as "the sport of kings," but do you know what king actually ran a footrace with a horse?... It was Jefferson's old for; George the Third of England... He became a little balmy upstairs after losing America... you know, of course, why some saints are pictured with square instead of round halos?... the square halo indicates the saint was still alive when the portrait was made... Few if any presidential candidates today have or need the lungpower of George Whitefield, famous 18th Century Methodist missionary... he could speak loudly enough to be heard by 20,000 people... actor David Garrick once said Whitefield's oratorical power was so great he could reduce an audience to tears merely by the way he pronounced "Mesopotamia"... any politician now can get the same result by saying "taxes"... Half the blindness among New York children of pre-school age is caused by a disease unheard of a decade ago... called retrolental fibroplasia, it affects only premature infants of low weight... cross-c eyed and near-sighted children usually rank among the best students, the American Optometric association says... it also has found color-blindness is five times as common among boys as girls... but it is the girls who grow up and buy those Christmas neckties... Naturally you've been wondering for years how fast a golf ball spins... the answer is 3000 to 5000 revolutions per minute—if you hit it well... a high-lofted ball with a good back-spin may reach 8000... A poll of 170,000 defense plant workers showed that 75 per cent used private cars to get to work... in Detroit the figure is 88 cent... well, anything to from getting into an argument with a bus driver... Mosquitoes will soon be again... you may be depressed to know that instead of about 400 varieties known 50 year ago science now figures they are between 1700 and 2500 kilometers here's a new way to fly them—carry a warm billiard ball around in your hand tests have shown that some dumb enough to sting head billiard balls... Of course, that could be another argument for staying of pool halls during the summer months... Scores of other young naval officers also feel strongly that Navy should accept the Air Engine. They point out, how that if the Navy ordered their son jet job, it would be made der Air Force supervision and dianapolis, since the Allison is under Air Force "cognisance." On the other hand, Pr Whitney at East Hartford Conn., is under Navy "coarsance," which means that Pr Whitney engines at an extra to the taxpayer of $48,000,000 because the Air Force had jdiction at the Allison plant, the Navy takes pride in deoping its own engines and stories under its cognisance. WASHINGTON—For some time has been a mystery as to why Navy, with carrier-based planes off the Korean coast, did not participate in the tough job combating the reds' jet-propel-MIGs instead of leaving it to Air Force. Navy pilots are among the best and most courageous in the world, but except in a few cases, they have been at a safe distance from the MIGs. This column is now able to give the answer. The Navy has not been able to develop a jet plane able to stand up against the Russian MIGs, and because Army-Navy rivalry, has been willing to accept an Air Force engine with which to do the job. This is no reflection on the thousands of Navy airmen who have been itching to get into the mean jet fighting, but rather on brass hits at the top who have unwilling to accept the spirit of Unification act. Investigation of this rivalry reveals shocking waste, evasiveness and inefficiency which once again seems to rest from lack of unification. Today the Navy's Bureau ofonavatics is spending $50,046. Each for a Pratt-Whitney jet plane, the J-48-P-6, for use in jet water planes, when it could buy a Allison engine, the J-33-A or only $31,000. Acceptable" Engine The Allison jet weighs a little less than the Pratt-Whitney, is a pressure engine, and has been an OK by the Naval Air STRONGEST DARN CAMEL'S BACK WE'VE EVEN ENDLESS STORIES OF EASY MONEY AND SLICK DEALS PUBLIC PATIENCE The Sacramento Scene By HENRY C. MacARTHUR Capitol News Service SACRAMENTO—Opening of a California legislature always is the occasion for a few days of hand-shaking and back clapping, and the 1952 budget session was no exception. The legislators had little time to greet each other before they were surrounded by lobbyists, who made their customary appearance even though there is little on the agenda this year to interest the "interests." However, the lobby work for the long haul, and already are discussing matters which will not come before the solons until 1953. Principal business of the session will be Governor Warren's $1,185,000,000 budget, largest in the state's history. Despite valiant efforts on the part of the legislative auditor, the assembly ways and means committee, and the Senate finance committee to cut the plush out of the document, it is predicted freely at the Capitol that the requests of the various state departments, with but little trimming, will be granted. Second major item is the question of a tax cut. Various proposals have been made, all including a drop of a half cent in the sales tax, and various reductions in state income, corporation and franchise taxes. From all indications, there will be no tax cut, for Commissioner Clifford E. Peterson, who wants 200 more men. Senators hearing Peterson's request, headed by Randolph Collier of Yreka, contend that Peterson isn't using the men he has to the limit of their abilities to patrol the highways. Collier and Senator George Hatfield, Merced, will make a last gasp fight for $13 million dollars to be returned to the highway funds for the northern counties from San Francisco-Oakland Bay bridge tolls. It's beginning to look like the Senators will be happy with about half this amount and will compromise to avoid a major legislative battle. Meanwhile, representatives of the city of Alameda are more than a little tired of having construction of a tube under Alameda estuary tied into the battle between the rural Senators and the city group, and will push to have specifications for the tube written into the bill so that work can proceed on this approach. The question is further complicated because a southern crossing of San Francisco bay will be tied into the issue. The California Toll bridge authority is ready to sell $50 million in bonds already authorized for approaches to the present bridge, including the tube, as soon as the legislature finishes its session. Executive Governor Warren took off again for Wisconsin, where he is campaigning for that state's delegates to the national GOP convention, but not before he tangled with the independent oil lobby. Prodded into a statement during a press conference, the governor said he had heard the independents were pouring money into the independent "Werdel-for-president" caminion.

Second major item is the question of a tax cut. Various proposals have been made, all including a drop of a half cent in the sales tax, and various reductions in state income, corporation and franchise taxes. From all indications, there will be no tax cut, although the proposals will bring on a major battle, particularly in the assembly. The set-up here is the opposition of Governor Warren to any reduction in taxes at this time; the fact that a majority of Democratic members of the assembly favor reduction, along with some of the Republican group. Thus a tax cut proposal has an outside chance to get through the assembly, but it will run into trouble in the Senate, where Senator Ben Hulse, Imperial county, has declared against a cut. Hulse, as chairman of the Senate Finance committee and also of the legislative budget committee, carries plenty of weight, but his attitude is that taxes should be cut only when expenditures are reduced. With a $36 increase in the operations budget along, and a total of $80 million increase, he believes that if any surpluses are built up, they should be used for future contingencies, or to reduce the bonded indebtedness of the state. The question then, devolves into a matter of opinion, with both sides sincere in their attitudes. Minor Battles A show-down is expected over the California Highway Patrol, with some legislators "gunning" Executive Governor Warren took off again for Wisconsin, where he is campaigning for that state's delegates to the national GOP convention, but not before he tangled with the independent oil lobby. Prodded into a statement during a press conference, the governor said he had heard the independents were pouring money into the independent "Werdel-for-president" campaign, and described one of the lobbyists, J. A. Smith, of Los Angeles, as "Slippery Jack." This brought almost an immediate reply from Smith, who found the door wide open and lost no time, as one observer put it in "backing in the truck." Smith called attention to the fact that the governor some years back was perfectly willing himself to accept campaign money from the independent. Oil people and then in a three-page bill of particulars, pointed out why the independents are no longer for the governor. The blast was hailed gleefully by the anti-Warren forces, and undoubtedly will have some bearing on the primary campaign this year. School Financing Along with proposals that will be made for school construction assistance, the school lobby now seeks an additional $60,000,000 to jump the state contribution from $120 ada to $160. It was predicted some time ago that the school lobby would seek to have part of the surplus diverted to California schools. The lobby claims the additional sum is needed to meet the high cost of living and operations.

TV-RADIOLOGIC Pictures Are Now a Hobby, Says TV Star Peter Lind Hayes By TOM E. DANSON HOLLYWOOD—I renewed an old time acquaintance yesterday with Mary Healy and Peter Lind Hayes, who are here for a few weeks doing a picture at Columbia. When asked what he liked better, picture work or television, Peter was very emphatic with his reply of "Definitely, at this point, picture work has turned into a hobby—Yeh, man! I really go for this television." Peter and his lovely brown-eyed wife, Mary Healy, have been putting in many long hours rehearsing and acting in the new technical picture which will be released under the title, "5000 Fingers of Dr. T," a fantasy which uses on the set, a huge 300 foot plano, specially constructed for the picture, containing 44,000 keys. This piano will be played simultaneously by 500 youngsters. Because of this picture work, Mary and Peter rehearse for their semi-monthly "Star of the Family" television show (C.B.S-TV, KNXT) at night time. "It was lucky for us that our television show changed to every two weeks just before we came out to do the picture," Mary said, "otherwise there wouldn't have been enough hours in the day." She added: "I would like a few more as it is." This is the first television programming to be done on the West Coast by this popular couple, who at one time were permanent residents here. "We brought our own producer director for the TV show with us from New York," Peter said, "but we find that most of the techniques of settings, production and camera work is the same. They do employ better lighting out here than they do in New York, however." Wtih their newly purchased home now in New Rochelle, N.Y., they plan to return here on a permanent basis in probably three or four years. "With TV going as it is now, here in Hollywood; the planned move is inevitable," they concluded. DOWN TV-RADIO ROW . . .

He is used to the accommodations of the marshal, however, as he spent Monday in the same locality for a similar offense. The Board of Trustees of Anaheim school district met at the Gazette office yesterday afternoon. Mr. Rimpau reported that the deed for the schoolhouse lot had been received and was in the recorder's office in Los Angeles. Mr. Kroeger was appointed to attend to removing the vines from the lot, leaving a sidewalk outside of the hedge, 10 feet wide, and to set out shade trees upon the edge of the sidewalk. The board instructed the clerk to find out what arrangements could be made toward building a schoolhouse and to report at the next meeting. It is the design of the trustees to proceed as soon as possible to prepare the grounds for a new schoolhouse to cost from $8000 to $9000. It is thought that means can be devised to raise $4000 to $5000 without levying a tax. If so, one story can be erected and put in immediate use and in two years more a tax might be levied to complete the balance, if no other method presented itself as a last resort, the 50 Years Ago March, 1902 Max Jacobson returned to his home in Santa Ana after a three weeks visit in San Francisco.

If so, one story can be erected and put in immediate use and in two years more a tax might be levied to complete the balance, if no other method presented itself as a last resort, the trustees will procure a plan of a building of which one portion can be completed with the money now in the treasury, and use it for the primary department until means can be prepared to finish the entire building. The scholhouse lot, ornamented with trees and shrubs, will be an attraction to our town, and as there will be little or no money to spare, it is hoped that those of our citizens who have an abundance of trees and shrubs will donate the same to the trustees. Anyone desiring to lend a helping hand in the matter can notify Mr. Kroeger. at the 1953 session of the legislature to increase the state sales tax to four cents. This is a proposal advanced by the supervisors association and the California Retailers association, who point out that the increase is not actually an increase for most of the population, because of the fact that most California cities are charging from a half to a cent sales tax now. The proposal would eliminate the cities' rights to collect sales tax, and provide that the revenue from the additional cent on the state tax would be subvented to cities and counties on a population basis. The marriage of John R. Gardiner and Miss Stella Dean, which took place at Fullerton on Wednesday evening, February 19, was one of the happy events of the season. The ceremony was performed by Rev.

The bride was dressed in a gray cloth traveling suit trimmed with silk and appliqué. After the ceremony, refreshments were served and a general good time enjoyed up to a late hour, when the happy couple took a carriage for Santa Ana, from which place they went to Santa Barbara for a short visit. They will be at home to their friends after March 19.

Once again the people of Anaheim and vicinity have started a movement for the formation of a flood control district. Spurred to action by the heavy rains and the inundation of various sections last week a meeting was held at the high school to discuss plans to remove the menace ever present when the turbulent Santa Ana river goes on one of its periodical rampages. Another meeting will be held on Monday when details of a plan to confine the river's flood waters within its channel. A committee was appointed to look into the matter and report. Among those present and taking part in the discussion were Mayor L. E. Miller, Leonard Evans, J. J. Dwyer, W. T. Wallop, Supervisor Schumacher, F. A.
