State Chamber Suggests Santa Mararita Dam LOS ANGELES (P)—A sound solution to the controversy between the federal government and local users of Santa Margarita river water would be construction of a storage dam, says the Natural Resources committee of the California Chamber of Commerce. In a report to a meeting of the State Chamber yesterday the committee urged legislation for construction of a dam, adding: "it is understood that the federal government would carry a very large part of the cost while the local water users are willing and ready to meet their share." The government, which wants an assured water supply for the Camp Pendleton Marine base near San Diego, claims rights to much of the Santa Margarita's runoff by reason of "epiment domain." Some 14,000 farmers in the area are fighting the claim. Franklin Thomas, dean of students at the California Institute of Technology and chairman of the Colorado river board of California, told the meeting that Southern California's water requirements for the next 30 years or more can be met from existing sources. Montgomery Phister, president of the California Fish Canners association and vice president of the Van Camp Sea Food Co., said the Japanese are escaping import tariffs by canning tuna in brine instead of oil and their competition threatens the industry here. There has been no significant Solons Work On Increased School Air BY MORRIE LANDSBERG SACRAMENTO (P)—Legislators took the first step today toward working out a program of increased state support for California's public schools and their unprecedented growth. A group of Assemblymen drafted a proposed amendment to the state budget to increase the 1952-53 school allocation by 22 million dollars. Basic aid for education is budgeted at 270 million but school people say it isn't enough to balance inflated costs for an enrollment climbing over the two million mark. Governor Warren has recommended an extra 12 million dollars. The California Teachers association is bidding for 33 million. It wants most of it earmarked for elementary schools. The compromise amendment may be offered late today before the Assembly Ways and Means committee votes the billion dollar-plus state budget to the lower house floor. The money would be distributed across-the-board to the schools, rich or poor, unless Warren authorizes the legislature to go into the question of a spending formula. Legal experts say the current budget session cannot make any changes in the school equalization fund—designed to help out over-taxed districts—without the governor's express permission. Warren, for his part, has declared he would open up the session to the school issue if both Misses Frances Backs and Thelma Reagan, realtors, report on the recent Fresno conference on the California Real Estate Association directors this morning at the regular breakfast meeting of Anaheim Realty Board. Miss Backs, president, and J. Thompson will represent the board at the meeting of the Orange County Council of Realty in Santa Ana tonight. Multiple Listing Chairman L. Buchanan reported $83,900 in recent local sales. New Season Dresses Star Dawn to Dusk Dresses will go everywhere, everything this spring. If whether designed as a single unit, jacket ensemble or two piece frock, new lines and detachable the dress to stand alone and hold greater importance wardrobes than in seasons past. Simulated effects of bolero redingotes and gilets appear cleverly manipulated trims of dresses. Other dresses bloom forth, from beneath their jackets companions, with new decorative touches and flattering delicate necklines. Even two-piece seams have single unit o'clock looks with tiny, gently molded jackets, like spencers that just below the bustline, are skirts, that are lined to embody size their femininity, use generously. And over all, helping to stress the importance of the dress, pears the return of turn-of-tide Natural Silhouette Stressed by Men's Modes for Every Occasion "The Right Clothes at the Right Time" is the new emphasis on menswear for Spring. For with the recent important stress on casual attire, some men have lost sight of the fact that there are suits, and individual types of sports apparel, too, designed and meant for different occasions in their day-to-day lives. The dark blue suit, for example, is essential and right for informal evening gatherings. The tweedy sport coat is acceptable neither for parties of this sort nor for business, but has its place on裤子 or at the country club. Menswear authorities point out that a wardrobe, of this nature, keyed to meet the dress requirements of every occasion, is also a long-run economy offered by constant rotation of the clothes. Variety Easier With the large choice of suits and topcoats, on hand for business and street wear, for Spring, wardrobe variety is easier than ever. As never before, along with the emphasis on wardrobes that include the right clothes for the right time, menswear makers are placing great stress on the "natural look." This indicates an increasing number of clothing styles that bring out a man's natural body contours, padding him only slightly to flatter his figure. Perfect example of the "natural look" is the single-breasted, two-button suit. This type of suit is also typical of the trend to lighter weights and reduced bulk in suits. "Natural shoulder" suit models, featuring narrow lapels, buttons set higher, and trim, conservative tailoring, are expected to more than ever, increase in popularity, this Spring, in keeping with the "natural look" theme. Straight Topcoats The same natural feeling extends to new topcoats. They are styled with narrower shoulders that are usually combined with set-in sleeves and fly or button-through fronts. Raglan topcoats with bal collars also place special emphasis on this straight hanging effect. And over all, helping to stretch the importance of the dress, pears the return of turn-of-the-century fashions with frocks, every hour of the day, strongly influenced by the lady-like signs of that fabulous era. Also in evidence, and just femininely pleasing, for Spring is the princess line, the elongated torso line and the Empire feeling Straight and Slim Typical of dresses inspired by turn-of-the-century fashion are those that hang straight and slim at front, and full at back with great emphasis placed on sleeves just as during that period. In some instances, sheath-slim dresses are created with full blown organdy sleeves which button in or out to meet the dancers of the occasion. The importance of sleeves is also seen in ruffled capelet types and over-size puffed designs. Elongated Torso Newest of the princess line dresses are those that team with princess line redingotes, both slim from shoulders to hipline then flared out at the skirt. Lending elegance to the slenderness of princess silhouettes are collarless necklines and new popular sleeves. The elongated torso line appears in many guises for Spring. Two-piece dresses often have long moulded overblouse effects with all-around pleated skirts to emphasize the slim lines above.

For design as a single packet ensemble or two-rock, new lines and details of the dress to stand alone hold greater importance in seasons past. Related effects of boleros, ties and gilets appear as manipulated trims on other dresses bloom from beneath their jacketions, with new decorations and flattering decol-klines. Even two-piece ensembles have single unit outwith tiny, gently molded like spencers that end below the bustline, and that are lined to empha-ner femininity, used easily.

The full committee took no immediate action on the subcommittee's proposal, which was advanced yesterday. Coupled with the proposed slash in the funds was a suggestion that $200,000 be appropriated for engineering studies in the Santa Margarita river basin in San Diego county. The subcommittee chairman, Senator Randolph Collier (R-Yreka), said the entire $800,000 could not be spent in one year. Colliers also favored limiting any studies to the area north of the Tehachapis. The project would involve damming the Feather river above OroDr. Perry Davis Is New President Of Izaak Waltons Election of Dr. Perry Davis, Santa Ana dentist, as president of Santa Ana chapter, Izaak Walton League, together with a staff of officers and three new directors, took place at last evening's meet-ing of the chapter in Santa Ana Community Center clubhouse.
