Textbooks continues from Page 1 communistic methods of governing) and those which are controversial (that is, where large groups of citizens in this country disagree on some public question such as public housing). He went on to say: "In this democracy where the citizens make the final decision should we educate our future voters without any knowledge of the many controversial issues which in a few years they may be called upon to decide. I believe that given the facts the people will make the right decisions. Students will find as adults there are two sides to most questions and that they must be able to weigh facts in order to reach the answer which is best for this country." As a school administrator, Mr. Cook said, "The schools belong to the people and I do not believe that any school system can be successful if it does not meet the approval of the majority of people in the community, and that of course, means its textbooks and its methods. I would not hesitate to discard any book in our public schools if it were subversive or misleading." MR. RINEHART, who uses "Our Changing Social Order" as a sociology textbook at the high school said: "If a book records progress, it shows the social order is changing. Some people feel where there is change there is under-mining." Mr. Rinehart identified the HELLO, IOWA, ANAHEIM CALLING—A network of amateur radio operators to provide a means of communication in time of national emergency for all Orange county communities is the goal of Ralph W. Anderson, process analyst at Northrop Aircraft's Anaheim division. Anderson is shown here at his favorite pastime, talking to a friend in Iowa over his portable radio unit during his lunch period at the plant. He is now affiliated with the Sixth Army group here and hopes to interest others in his program. With the Anaheim division since January 2, 1952, Mr. Anderson has been a member of the team helping to produce fire control instruments for the U.S. Army Ordnance Corps. FJC Spring Play Enters Final Rehearsal Period McMahan Opening Prize Winners' Names Reported MR. RINEHART, who uses "Our Changing Social Order" as a sociology textbook at the high school said: "If a book records progress, it shows the social order is changing. Some people feel where there is change there is under-mining." Mr. Rinehart identified the authors of "Our Changing Social Order" and explained how he uses the text in the classroom. He agreed with Mr. Kellogg and Mr. Cook that a teacher genuinely hostile to the "American way" could attempt to subvert the subject of sociology—as could be done with history or any other text which explores controversial issues. Mr. Rinehart then discussed some of the items which appeared recently in the report critical of the book. He read the critical item from the report, and then read the full explanation in the book. His point was to show how the critical report implied one interpretation of a few phrases from the book, but that the full explanation from the book as given in the classroom gave an entirely different meaning. About 150 persons including students as well as a representative cross-section of Anaheimers were in the audience—including an author of the report critical of "Our Changing Social Order," and the publisher of the county-seat daily which is anti-public schools because, the paper believes, schools do not use the "Golden Rule" as their standard. Eat California Oranges for Vitamin C. FJC Spring Play Enters Final Rehearsal Period Now in its final two weeks of rehearsal, "The Silver Chord" will be the annual spring play presented by the Fullerton junior college drama students May 12-17. The play, by Sidney Howard, depicts the struggle between an overly-possessive mother and her two sons who are trying to free themselves. To be presented in the junior college lounge, the production employs the "central-staging" technique, according to Director Alex Omalev. In this manner of production, the audience is seated so as to surround or almost surround the "stage." This allows a more intimate interplay of feeling between actors and audience. Portraying the mother, "Mrs. Phelps" is Pat Sullivan (Ana); her sons, "David" and "Robin" are acted by Don Padgett (Whittier) and Greg Gorby (Fullerton). Liz Robbins (Anaheim) and Joyce Shunk (Anaheim) portray the two women who threaten the mother's power over her sons. Pat Sullivan appeared last fall as the manager of the theatrical boarding house in the junior college production of "Stage Door." In the same production, Liz Robbins played the lead role of 'Terry' and Joyce Shunk was cast in the tragic role of the suicide.

The total amount involved, between $1100 and $2821, is not great insofar as state expenditures go, but would be a considerable sum to a taxpayer who might want to remodel his home, or improve his yard. Along with the construction of the state Capitol annex, an $8,000,000 job, provision was made for a garage in the basement, and in constructing the approachways to the garage, the state architects designed a curved street leading off Twelfth, through the garage and out to Twelfth st. to the south side of Capitol park. Costs of installing the street through the park were financed out of the $192,000 allocated by the legislature for improvements to the state capitol grounds, commonly known as “landscaping.” In addition to the street, which is for the exclusive use of automobiles and other vehicles, such as delivery trucks, the mail wagon, etc., the “landscaping” included a walk for pedestrians, which leads off Twelfth and L streets and moves almost in a straight line to Twelfth and N streets. In the center of this broadwalk is the main entrance to the new eighth million dollar Capitol annex. THE HOTEL Senator, one of the principal hostels for legislators and lobbyists during the sessions, is located across the street from Capitol park, at Twelfth and L streets, and this where the story begins. Legislators, or at least some of them, instead of using the broad pedestrians walk leading to the main entrance, found they could save a few feet of hiking by toddling down the street used exclusively for automobiles. They entered the garage through the vehicle door, and took the elevator in the basement, instead of the main floor, to their offices. However, this procedure involved a certain amount of hazard. Some of the legislators were not too fast on their feet, and had a little trouble ducking when finding the ladder and Lincoln square. Cost of Firing Bureaucrats Told Firing bureaucras isn’t as easy as a lot of citizens might like. It cost one federal agency $158,000 to discharge 25 employees, Senator Ed Martin of Pennsylvania told the Senate recently. Six thousand, three hundred and twenty dollars of tax money was spent on each of the workers while they appealed their discharges through the channels of review.

It cost one federal agency $158,000 to discharge 25 employees, Senator Ed Martin of Pennsylvania told the Senate recently. Six thousand, three hundred and twenty dollars of tax money was spent on each of the workers while they appealed their discharges through the channels of review. Just suppose—as an exercise in imagination—that 4 per cent of all government employees were fired, and appealed their cases. One hundred thousand people of the more than 2½ million on the federal payroll would be affected. At what seems to be the going rate, $6320 per employee, the citizens of the United States would fork over more than half a billion dollars to get rid of these people. $632,000,000 would be the total. The lesson, of course, is that the government should never have been loaded with help to the extent that mass discharges would be necessary. Government once was an agent of the people, doing no more than the people told it. Responsible citizens, seeing the monstrous shape of "new-style" government, must recover control of their governmental servant, and strip it of all unwarranted powers while they still are able. women visitors and novelties to the children. The remodeling of the former Rice Bros. furniture store was started some time ago. The store has been completely redecorated and modernized. It has over 12,000 square feet of shopping space.

COLLINS FELT that something should be done to protect the persons of legislators who wanted to use the shorter and more convenient route onto the eight-million dollar annex. OS the assembly rules committee made a request to the state division of architecture to install a walkway from Twelfth and L streets to a door alongside he vehicle door into the garage. Collins is chairman of the rules committee. The division of architecture, nothing loath to perform the work with part of the $192,000 "land-scaping" allotment, called for bids on the project, which involves installation of railings to prevent the legislators from falling, and a stairway from the raised walk down to the door. Lowest bid for the project was $2821, submitted by the Bingham Construction Co., although architecture originally estimated the job at $1000. So Anson Boyd, state architect, said his division would not accept the bid. He will call for new bids, he said, and unless a lower figure is obtained, the state itself will do the job.

A mile on a spoonful...a single tea-spoonful of diesel fuel rolls a ton of freight one mile along S.P. lines... We're living in a Fuel's Paradise We're living in a Fuel's Paradise The West is an oil paradise. As the West's pioneer railroad, Southern Pacific helped pioneer the oil-burning steam locomotive. In that sense we proved that there's no fuel like an oil fuel. And now we are dieselizing at a rapid pace. Diesels are the most efficient locomotives yet designed. They can pull heavier loads than steam locomotives. They can make longer runs, on less fuel, without stops for water or servicing. Their smooth, uniform driving power saves wear and tear on tracks. They make better time and are out of service less for repairs. Last year, thanks in goodly measure to diesels, we set our all-time efficiency record in hauling freight. Gross ton-miles per freight train hour, the key index of efficiency of freight train operation, reached an average of 48,384. In 1944, the peak traffic year, the average was 36,301. Thus we are now able to move defense and other traffic in better fashion and also to conserve oil for our nation's needs. Our 716 diesels, in service or on order, cost $180,000,000. A lot of money, to be sure—but an investment that is paying off in cutting costs and in better service to shippers and passengers. In short, S. P.'s diesel program symbolizes the Company's aggressive efforts to attain maximum efficiency in its operations and take advantage of advances in science and invention to make our railroad a better one.
