Anaheim Gazette WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20, 1952 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Admiral Bristles Over Early A.M. Visit by Millionaire Sailor HONOLULU (AP)—The millionaire sailor and the admiral in his palamas had a five-minute chat. Today the sailor is working for the admiral. MORE ABOUT . . . Steel Continued from Page 1 In the hope of getting Pine's decision reversed. With the vast steel industry shutting down overnight, the government slapped an embargo on shipments of steel from warehouses to producers of civilian goods and to foreign countries. The National Production Authority issued the order within two hours of Pine's decision in a move to conserve the supplies on hand until it is determined whether they will have to be diverted from civilian to military use. Outside of the courts, one further course was open to Truman; to invoke the Taft-Hartley law. Philip Murray, president of the steelworkers union and the CIO, sought to nip such a move in advance, saying the union already has complied with Taft-Hartley provisions. Murray declared the strike would continue until the workers get a contract along the lines recommended by the Wage Stabilization Board. Santa Anans Hurt In Traffic Crash Mrs. Minnie Helen Adams, 33, 1129 Camden place, Santa Ana, and Grace L. Beckman, 1388 S. Seaman $/C Bruce S. Hopping and Rear Adm. Francis C. Denebrink agreed their 7 a.m. chat Saturday wasn't exactly cordial. Hopping is a naval reservist with a $3,000,000 lumber business in New Jersey. He told a reporter "the admiral wasn't a gentleman ... he was uncordial ... he got huffy ... he told me to get out." Denebrink told a reporter he waved Hopping to a seat and Hopping said "I thought I should come by and let you see what kind of a man I am." Denebrink said he then told Hopping the procedure was most unusual and that Hopping apologized and left. The navy said Hopping had been transferred from the salvage ship Reclaimer to administrative duties on Denebrink's staff. The admiral is commander, service forces, Pacific. THE SKIPPER and executive officer of the Reclaimer were cleared recently of crew complaints of "petty tyranny." Denebrink has said the two Reclaimer officers were "unjustly maligned by someone who distributed vicious and distorted rumors about them." He added that the case would not be closed until final action is taken—presumably against an alleged rumor monger. He didn't even hint who that might be. Hopping freely said he played a leading role among the complaining crewmen. He retained a civilian attorney to represent them.

Porton st., Santa Ana, who was passenger on a Santa Ana City bus that collided with Mrs. Adams' car yesterday afternoon, both received minor injuries and were taken to St. Joseph hospital. The accident took place at Baker and Glenwood streets, Santa Ana. George McGuire, 48, 1402 S. Olive st., Santa Ana, was driver of the bus. Hopping freely said he played a leading role among the complaining crewmen. He retained a civilian attorney to represent them. The sailor caused a minor furore at the Bainbridge, Md., Naval Training Center last September. He issued a public statement that navy food "wasn't fit to eat." Explaining his pre-breakfast call on the admiral, Hopping said he thought it might help "If we could talk together informally." "But," he added, "when I told him why I was there he got huffy. He told me to get out."

Miss Legal Quickie Threatens to Force Nudist Suit Out of Detroit Court DETROIT (UP)—A nudist case in Monroe county, and former prosecutor Foster D. Luse, of Monroe county. Miss Church rested her case yesterday after a 71-year-old witness testified that one of the raiding officers ordered her to remove her clothes. The plaintiff's witness, John A. Rubel, of Belle Center, O4, said Miss Church was wearing shorts and a halter when raiders swooped down on the camp in August or 1948. One of the officers, Rubel said, "kept ordering her to 'take them off,' take them off." Assistant state attorney general Martin L. Leacock sprang a surprise for the defense in moving for a directed verdict in favor of the defendants. Leacock uncovered a Michigan statute of limitations which says no action can be brought against sheriff's deputies more than two years after the event. Miss Church filed her suit in February of 1951. George F. Fisk, Jr., attorney for Miss Church said he was not aware of the section until it was brought to his attention by the motion. "I'll give you time to study it," said Federal Judge Frann A. Picard, "but it looks to me right now that you are out of court."

There's more than a family celebration this year at the Fullerton American Fruit Growers packing house. True, it's the 30th Anniversary of the house and the 30th year that Bob and Stanley Strain have headed the packing and grower service operations of their smoothly working organization and up-to-date facilities. But more important...it marks a progress that has been steady, an advance that has brought profit and security to hundreds of Orange County families, a growth that extends from the 23 carlots of fruit packed in 1922 to a record 1000 carloads handled in '51. Over the years the Strains have added five new sections to the original 60' x 80' packing house. The present combination orange and lemon house is now 750 feet long, with a full basement under the entire plant. The house is divided equally between orange and lemon processing and packing, with the front half devoted to oranges. Lemon storage rooms, which have a capacity for 110 carloads, are completely air-conditioned and refrigerated. Visit AFG's Fullerton packing house.

Speaker Here Thursday Prospects for Congressional action on bills that would seriously affect Southern California's water supply from the Colorado river will be reviewed for members of the Anaheim Izaak Walton League at a meeting to be held at 8 p.m. Thursday, May 1, 1952, at 317 E. La Palma st., in Anaheim. John Wesley Baleria, public relations representative for the Colorado River association, will be the speaker. With 45 cities in this area now counting upon Colorado river water, more than 3,700,000 Californians are directly concerned in the outcome of bills now before Congress calling for a huge irrigation project in Arizona, according to Baleria. "Any loss of water to Arizona would seriously affect residential and industrial growth in Southern California," he states. "The Colorado river is the only supply we have that can meet our own future needs." Baleria will emphasize that the "fantastic" Arizona irrigation project would add a new two billion dollar tax burden on Federal taxpayers throughout the nation. Residents of California, he explains, would have to pay $172,- Aquarium Society Sets Meeting Date Orange County Aquarium Society will hold its regular monthly meeting Friday, at 8 p.m., in Santa Ana Community Center clubhouse, 1104 W. 8th st. Speaker will be Henry Nickles world 701,000 in higher taxes to subsidize the project, while Arizona would pay less than one per cent of the cost. Baleria points out that the United States Senate has twice given approval to the costly project and therefore California citizens must remain on the alert against Arizona's continued attempts to obtain full Congressional approval. He appeals to citizens to write to Eastern friends, asking those friends to write their Congressmen to oppose the Arizona bill which is numbered S. 75. Ex-Anaheimer Dies in S. Pasadena Mrs. Margaret E. Wadsworth, 90, grandmother of Mrs. Vivian Henry of Anaheim, died yesterday at her home, in South Pasadena following a lingering illness.

Commies Hoped For Negro Help, Witness Says LOS ANGELES OP—The communist party hoped to presuade Negroes to bear arms against the United States in the event of a war with Russia, a jury trying 14 California communist leaders had been told. The witness was Paul Estrada, 24, Negro policeman from Milwaukee, who said he joined the party in 1947 as an undercover man for the FBI. Estrada testified yesterday that he met Frank Carlson, one of the defendants, at a communist party club in 1947. Later, he said, they discussed possible Negro participation in a war with Russia. "Carlson said that the Negroes had been badly treated in the United States to see that no Negro would bear arms against the Soviet—but instead would fight the United States," Estrada said. "He told me he wanted me to organize the 'United Negroes and Allied Veterans of America,' so that the Negro boys of the North would become more militant and organize the Negroes of the South." The defendants are charged with conspiring to teach and advocate overthrow of the government by force. Atom Blast Set For Tomorrow—If Weather Okay LAS VEGAS, Nev.

YEARS Another first for the growing Strain operated AFG house was the installation and use of the first orange stamping machine of the type now standard throughout the industry. These stampers were owned outright by American Fruit Growers. Later, AFG made this machine available to other citrus packing organizations. The patents were sold to Food Machinery Corporation in 1947. Through the entire 30 years the Strains have experimented with new types of containers and developed cost cutting handling equipment. Economies were passed on to growers in the form of better returns for their fruit. Newest economy move came just this year when machinery was installed for packing citrus in cardboard containers.
