March 19. The output after the mint reaches full capacity, will be 1,200,000 coins each eight-hour practical Farm Skills Featured On Davis Campus Harnessing a team of horses and learning to drive them is still considered important enough to teach to students of agriculture according to Harold E. Wahlberg, farm advisor, Orange county. Over 60 students have enrolled in the spring section of the Farm Skills course offered on the Davis campus. The course, a part of the sixby program, prepares the college students in agriculture to be more employable. As a result of a gift made by Fred H. Bixby, Sr., of Long Beach, students of agriculture at the University of California are able to put special emphasis on the practical side of farming. The present spring Farm Skills class is broken up into 10 separate sections. This, according to Wahlberg, enables the students to participate more in the work undertaken. Projects undertaken this semester include some of those more frequently experienced by the 1951 summer "on-the-job" trainees on California farms and allied industry. In addition to learning to harness a team, students will learn to AUHS Students to Present 'Good News' at Annual Open House There'll be "good news" for Anaheim area folk attending Anaheim union high school's annual Public School Week Open House on April 28, the school reminded today. "Good News" in this case, will be the presentation of the famous Broadway musical of the same name, with a cast of more than 25. A selected dancing chorus of Glen McCloud Says We hear a lot these days about the working man versus big business and the troubles that arise through a lack of understanding between the two elements. Labor and management are inseparable partners. Without the working man, there can be no management and without management, there certainly would be no jobs for the working man. To keep this country great, there must be "give and take" between both sides. A man has a right to fair wage and to support his family as he believes proper. At the same time, industry which is in itself, a group of many persons, must be able to operate on a fair profit in order that there will be work available. Constant discord between management and labor in this country is exactly what persons behind the Iron Curtain want to set. We are a great and strong country and to remain so, we must have unity. CANDIDATE FOR 75th DISTRICT ASSEMBLY Pol. Adv. 10 attractive AUHS coeds, a vocal group of more than a dozen, and 15 of the top teen-age actors and actresses of the district are staging the famous 1920's two-act musical.

Two presentations of the musical are scheduled, one on the night of April 25 and the other in conjunction with the school Open House on April 28. The Open House, traditional school function, allows student parents and townspeople to meet faculty members and examine the school facilities and activities on a "first hand" basis. Major roles in the school musical will be enacted by Dixylee Hopkins, Bruce Horner, Eddie Starnes, and Marian Caracausa. Other parts are taken by June McClain, Aurora Pens, Marlene Stewart, Nolan Blackman, Dean Stokes, Carl Starnes, Floyd Baker, John Brooks, Gary Claussin, Hart Hessel, Stu Schmid, and a boy's trio composed of Aaron Peralta, Eli Peralta, and Bud Brown. The population of Mexico's Lower California nearly tripled between 1940 and 1950. POOLE APPLIES FOR TELEVISION CHANNEL 22 John H. Poole, owner-manager of the new Southern California radio station KBIG, scheduled to start broadcasting from Catalina Island in May, announced that he is applying to the Federal Communications commission immediately for authority to build a television station on Channel 22 in Los Angeles. Channel 22 is a new channel assigned to Southern California in the allocation plan just released by the commission. Since 1949 Poole has experimented on Channel 22, operating ultra high frequency Station KM2XAZ. Early this year it was moved from its original Signal Hill location to the top of Mt. Wilson by authority of the FCC. In addition to Channel 22, Los Angeles has been assigned channels 28 and 34 in the new FCC plan. Channel 28 is reserved for The population of Mexico's Lower California nearly tripled between 1940 and 1950.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON CO Republic of India Opens New Mint Production of Coins, Medals India's modern mint is located on a 26-acre site, which allows for future expansion. Sixty-one acres are available for a residential colony for the mint's personnel. The mint, on which construction was started in 1945, has the most modern machinery, including special equipment for making pure nickel coins. The story of coinage in India includes the very old and the very new. On August 29, 1757, the first rupee was struck in Calcutta, following a treaty between the East India Co., and Newab Serajud-Daula. That was 35 years before the first United States mint was established in Philadelphia by the Act of April 2, 1792. The first coins turned out in Calcutta were actually counterfeits of the Moghul coins then in circulation. History records that the heat and fumes from the charcoal fires were so great that inspectors had to keep at a distance, so that the workers were often able to take home "samples" of their product. The beginning of a modern mint mint, Indian, including adequate machinery, came in 1824. This mint, on Strand road, Calcutta, is still functioning but will be closed when the modern mint at Alipore goes into full operation. This old Calcutta mint has been able to make coins for many other countries. Since 1914 the countries for which coins have been made include: Australia, Bhutan, Ceylon, Egypt, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and The Straits Settlements. Southern Counties Gas Co. Reversal of PUC Rate Decision Southern Counties Gas Company, one of California's major gas utilities, appealed to the State Supreme Court today to set aside a decision of the California Public Utilities Commission denying the company a gas rate increase. In asking the high court to review the commission order and decision, the company asserted "That it is the only major gas or combination gas and electric utility in California which has not been granted a rate increase during this period of inflation." It has been pointed out several times that this was the first application for a general upward adjustment in rates in over 30 years. While charging no more for gas service than prior to World War II, the company's average cost of purchased natural gas has increased by 32 per cent, wage rates by 90 per cent and the Federal income tax rate from 24 per cent to 52 per cent, according to the petition. The petition declared that, in considering the company's earnings, the commission disregarded Site Offered For Stanton Fire Station G. W. Irwin, chairman of the fire station committee, announced to the directors of the Stanton Chamber of Commerce last night that Mrs. Alvina M. Koeppen, 8821 Walker st., Cypress, had offered the building in the rear of the Stanton Hardware Store. Well-settled legal criteria allowed earnings of only $50 return on a depreciated cost rate base. The company this is less than approximately per cent on a full historic rate base, similar to that this commission prior to 1951. The petition recited return is "the lowest imprint on any comparable California city," and is "both discreet and confiscatory."

Since 1914 the countries for which coins have been made include: Australia, Bhutan, Ceylon, Egypt, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and The Straits Settlements. Portuguese India, British East Africa and the former Indian States have also placed orders. The metals used for making Indian coins are; pure nickel for one rupee, one half rupee and one quarter rupee; cupro-nickel (25 per cent copper, 25 per cent nickel) for two anna, one Anna and half anna pieces; bronze (97 per cent copper, 2½ per cent zinc and ½ per cent tin) for single piece. In addition to producing coins, the new mint will make medals and decorations. Among them are the Paramvir Chakra and the Maha Vir Chakra instituted by the new government of India, which has been free of British rule since 1947 and an independent Republic since Jan. 26, 1950. The mint also checks weights and measures, and watches out for counterfeiters. The record coinage in the old Calcutta Mint was during the war year of 1944-45, when 1,048,727,800 coins were struck. This output is believed to be a world’s record. In 1950 the three mints in the United States—Philadelphia, San Francisco and Denver—turned out 928,735,626 pieces of domestic coinage and 2,000,000 of coins for foreign countries. non-commercial, educational telecasting by Los Angeles area educators.

Irwin, chairman of the fire station committee, announced to the directors of the Stanton Chamber of Commerce last night that Mrs. Alvina M. Koeppen, 8821 Walker st., Cypress, had offered the building in the rear of the Stanton Hardware Store, 10615 S. Stanton ave., to be used as temporary headquarters for the fire truck promised Stanton by the board of supervisors. The site has been approved by County Forest Ranger and Fire Warden Joe Scherman, according to Irwin. Plans are being formulated to remodel the building and install an alarm system.

EDISON COMPANY OF COURSE—IT'S ELECTRIC! ELECTRIC is the word for cleaner, faster water heaters, too! Cedison Gas Co. Asks Rate Decision well-settled legal criteria and allowed earnings of only 5.8 per cent return on a depreciated original cost rate base. The company says this is less than approximately 5.1 per cent on a full historical cost rate base, similar to that used by this commission prior to October 1951. The petition recited that this return is "the lowest imposed upon any comparable California utility," and is "both discriminatory and confiscatory." Local Photo Club Tours Color Film Lab An interesting and highly educational program was enjoyed by the Northern Orange County Camera club Monday evening. More than 20 members of the local club journeyed to Glendale, where a complete tour of the Drewry Pho-color laboratory was conducted by Lynn Walker, Drewry sales representative, and John Harman, laboratory superintendent. The tour was highlighted by such rights as the fully automatic color printers, and the automatic assembly-line processing of color prints.

Included in the $95,000 per Auto Accident Cost Set at $324 Million SACRAMENTO (CNS) — The California Highway Patrol sharpened its pencil and announced that traffic accidents in California cost the public $324 million during 1951. In computing the estimate, the patrol said the National Safety Council figures the average cost of a single traffic death in $95,000. The death toll for last year was 3418. Included in the $95,000 per death figure are $21,800 for the death; $950 for each injury and $180 for each property damage accident. Accidents, said the patrol, cause wage loss, medical and hospital expenses, repair or replacement of damaged property and overhead cost of insurance.

You must be rolling in dough. How about answering this one—What do you do with all the money you make?" The answer is a matter of public record. But in brief—after we've paid for materials, wages, employee benefits, and miscellaneous expenses...wear and tear on plants and equipment...interest on our long-term debts...and, in the last 5 years, more than $405,000,000 in taxes—then what's left, the "money we make," goes this way: Exploration here and abroad has cost us more than $229,000,000 in the last 5 years. Known crude reserves are at an all-time high. But these deposits and miscellaneous expenses...wear and tear on plants and equipment...interest on our long-term debts...and, in the last 5 years, more than $405,000,000 in taxes—then what’s left, the “money we make,” goes this way: Exploration here and abroad has cost us more than $229,000,000 in the last 5 years. Known crude reserves are at an all-time high. But these deposits were the easiest to discover. Though the earth holds vast hidden reserves, it now costs many millions to find each new field. And finally, after setting aside funds for future operation, our more than 100,000 shareholders get what money remains—last year $2.60 a share, their return on savings invested in Standard. So almost all the “money we make” goes right back into circulation. We invest in research and technical service—more than 35,000,000 in the last 5 years—to develop better ways of finding oil, increasing the yield, cutting costs, creating new business. That brings you new and improved products, with prices held down as we compete for your patronage. We put funds into facilities—in the last 5 years, more than $644,000,000. The need for oil products keeps growing. Standard must replace old wells, increase crude oil production; add to the capacity of refineries, pipelines, tankers, and other things needed to serve you well.
