But, behind the men and women at Kwikset are many other "helping hands," including complicated and expensive machinery, essential administrative and marketing systems—and, a research and chemistry laboratory. In the rooms above the company's cafeteria, at the corner of S. Olive and Santa Ana sts., a modern laboratory has been installed by Kwikset. The laboratory, presided over by Dr. P. James Rich—Kwikset chemist—is designed to solve any problems concerned with metallurgy, testing of raw materials, controlling of coatings on metal parts, and checking the rigid specifications established by Kwikset for its products. For example, among the scientific instruments is equipment used to test the protective coating on Kwikset products—including abrasion, scratch and impact tests, strength, hardness and flexibility. Thus, through a scientific approach, Kwikset continually is testing its products to insure they can stand the rigorous requirements of builders, home owners—and competing products. The tests make sure Kwikset products MORE ABOUT... TAXES Continued from Page 1 lars immediately. The same group also decided to double the proposed one million dollar state allotment to cities and counties for flood and storm damage to roads and other public works. Spokesmen for the California State Chamber of Commerce and the California Manufacturers association presented the case for tax reduction before the revenue-taxation committee with the common argument: Too much money in the treasury leads to too much spending. Opposition came only from Robert McKay of the California Teachers association and the two committeemen who voted against the bill—Marvin Sherwin (R-Piedmont) and Ernest R. Geddes (R-Claremont).

Such is one part of the scheme of maintaining and expanding a high position in the markets of the world for products bearing the label "Made in Anaheim, Calif." MORE ABOUT...

If the union can show 30 percent of workers have returned to cards or otherwise asked to union to represent them, the union can request the National Labor Relations Board to call and supervise a plant election. If a majority of the employees do not vote for the union proposal, the union could not call for another election for one year in accordance with NLRB regulations.

DUCK and COVER by Bert the Turtle BERT SAYS: "If you are outdoors when the A-bomb explodes, DUCK fast behind a wall or into a doorway. Even a hollow in the ground will help protect you. In a car or bus, duck under or behind the seats. COVER UP. Remember: Don't stand and look—DUCK and COVER...as quick as that flash." Now you know what to do about the A-bomb. Would you like to see me again as a Movie Star showing your whole school how to DUCK and COVER. Just ask your teacher to show you my OFFICIAL film called "Duck and Cover". The Federal Civil Defense Administration made it and your local Civil Defense officials can help your teacher get it. Your teacher can also help you get my new book "DUCK and COVER" to keep. Goodbye now. You're good pupil!"

Whether you're a newcomer to Southern California or a long-time resident, you don't have to visit a Gas Company office to get gas service at a new location or to discontinue service.

AFL (Continued from Page 1) From a labor standpoint, Kwikset already outperforms the most militant labor union standards in the matter of employee benefits. Because of high pay and excellent working conditions the plant is understood frequently to receive about 100 job applications daily. Last year, when the organization effort was at its highest, the Gazette interviewed a number of Kwikset employees, who were almost unanimous in their desire "to be left alone." The Gazette concluded from the interviews that being employed at Kwikset was like suddenly becoming a partner in a thriving business. Leading the organization attempt yesterday was Arthur Timmons, who said he is secretary of the Metal Trades Council. He would not comment on the activities of his group. Likewise, Kwikset officials had nothing to say about the leaflet passers. William and Mary College was founded in 1693.

CENTER ST., ANAHEIM- PHONE 7283 CENTER ACROSS FROM CITY HALL 3 ANOTHER CONVENIENCE OF USING CLEAN, LOW-COST GAS! Through the years, your Gas Company has done a great deal to simplify and speed up its service operations. But, in spite of increased efficiency, our costs (like yours) have gone up and up. We have had to pay much more year after year for everything we buy and everything we do. Because the price you pay for gas today is about the same as in 1938, it has recently been necessary for us to seek approval of higher rates. Yet, with any increase that may result, gas will still be lower in cost than almost any other household item. ERN COUNTIES GAS COMPANY Old bargain is GAS
