Rotary Filibuster Brings Walk-out Of Guest Speaker
They had a heck of a time trying to get the main speaker before the mike at the Anaheim Rotary club yesterday—but didn't quite succeed. Headlining the bill was ex-Sen. Hans Jorgensen, of Minnesota, who watched the local Rotarians filibuster for 45 minutes, consuming the time allotted to the senator.
What took up the time were such matters as Walter Taylor's experiences with a peeping-tom, Gordon Beisel's idea for putting a can around an orange blossom and later having canned orange juice on the tree, Hugh Bridgford's discourse all over the place on food in general, Arval Morris' explanation of the situation in Puerto Rico, etc.
John Bovee consumed more of the senator's time when he inducted new members, Lloyd Larson, Carryl White and Marvin Groth.
Dick Gay, president, who knew there would be a break for the door by the membership when 1:30 arrived, got fidgitier and fidgitier as the members droned on.
At about 1:27, the Senator got up, said no senator, not even an ex-senator could confine his remarks to three minutes—and blew out of the place.
Whereupon, another politician, the volume dealer (alias Bob Boney) admonished the club for its discourtesy to the guest. Surprisingly, Bob got off a couple of Knowland Plurality Higher by 100,000
LOS ANGELES (AP)—A faulty adding machine has caused U.S. Sen. William F. Knowland to lose approximately 100,000 votes in Los Angeles county in the June 3, primary.
Benjamin S. Hite, registrar of voters, said yesterday the mechanical error cuts Knowland's Republican ticket total from 758,351 to approximately 658,351 in Los Angeles county. The outcome of the election was not changed. Knowland is still the winner of Republican and Democratic nominations, tantamount to re-election.
KKK Cross Burns On LA Negro's Front Yard
LOS ANGELES (AP)—A second report of a burning cross on property occupied by Negroes has been made to District Attorney S. Ernest Roll.
August Bates, a Negro, told Roll yesterday that he found the charred remains of a cross in his back yard Saturday night. Bates said he was warned several months ago, through unsigned notes, that he was not wanted in the neighborhood, predominantly white.
One month ago, a Negro attorney, Rayfield Lundy, reported that a cross was burned in his front yard in suburban Willowbrook.
Meanwhile, William H. Bailey, Negro school teacher, and his

Would you call this the world's greatest invention?
Would you call this the world's greatest invention?
Perhaps not. For you recognize it instantly as the familiar container known as the tin can.
But . . think for a moment of what it has accomplished.
It has changed the eating habits of America . . . helped raise the national health level. It has fed our armed forces all over the globe and provided them with a nutritious and a balanced diet.
It has permitted an interchange of products and a sharing of their benefits everywhere.
For example, Maine farmers can eat California fruits and Californians can enjoy New England baked beans. You'll find Hawaiian pineapple in Canada, peaches in Alaska, American meats in Norway, and an outstanding variety of canned foods in far-distant, little-known lands.
Through the years American Can Company, working with an alert, progressive canning industry, has pioneered hundreds of uses for this famous container—not only for food, but for such diversified products as motor oil, beer, paint, coffee and ball bearings.
The miracle of the tin can could only have happened in America . . . where a free economy offers such unlimited opportunity for a progressive, forward-looking industry to create jobs and make better products available to everyone at lower cost.

HCM Sees State Education Dept. Edging into TV—on Taxpayers
BY HENRY C. MACARTHUR
SACRAMENTO. (CNS)—Extensive plans, the ultimate objective of which would be to put the state of California in the television business at the expense of the taxpayers, are being formulated by the state department of education in California before committing themselves to the expenditure of "millions" for state television.

HCM Sees State Education Dept. Edging into TV—on Taxpayers
By HENRY C. MACARTHUR
SACRAMENTO. (CNS)—Extensive plans, the ultimate objective of which would be to put the state of California in the television business at the expense of the taxpayers, are being formulated by the state department of education.
This was admitted here today by Dr. Roy E. Simpson, state superintendent of public instruction, who said he is accumulating data to be used at a statewide conference, which as yet unscheduled but probably will be held in the fall, to discuss the matter of state owned television under the supervision of California’s educational system.
The case for state-operated television started when the federal communications commission some weeks ago set aside eight choice channels in California for “educational purposes.”
These channels are located in San Francisco-Oakland, Los Angeles, San Jose, Stockton, Sacramento Fresno, San Bernardino and San Diego.
The problem at the present time, according to Simpson, is whether or not the state, or regional districts which he said could be formed through enabling legislation, takes advantage of the eight channels. If it does not act before next June, the educational director said it was highly probable that the channels would revert to private industry, as the channels are worth “millions of dollars” to private business.
“There is no argument that the channels are not usable and that the state should avail itself of this resource,” Simpson said. “The only way to do it is to call a conference together to determine how far the people want to go to work out the details.”
The matter of the state entering a field in which there would be more or less competition with private business is bound to bring on a first class row in the state legislature. In California, at least will scan the growing costs of education in California before committing themselves to the expenditure of “millions” for state television. For with approximately a three quarters of a billion dollar annual total spent on behalf of all schools, colleges and other educational facilities, representatives of the taxpayers may be hesitant about increasing the load.
More important than money, however, in the opinion of some of the state’s solons, is the opportunity for statism propaganda which could be dished out to the people through the television medium, and the belief in many quarters that the state or its subsidiary governments has no place in private business wherever there is competition with taxpayers who are trying to make a living.
Entry into the television field, it is held, would open the door to a state radio station, newspaper or magazine. On the other hand, the educators feel television offers an educational medium second to none in giving the people a “fuller life.”
Some Department Store Price Controls Eased
WASHINGTON (UP) — Department stores now may boost prices on most of their goods starting next Monday.
The increase allowed range from a penny or two on small items to a dollar or more on furniture, radio and television sets.
But the Office of Price Stabilization (OPS) doesn’t expect most price tags to be upped. It said many products now are selling below ceilings and the actual prices are determined by competition.
OPS authorized the increases yesterday to offset a rise in freight and parcel post rates since May, 1951.
Freight charges have increased from 6 to 25 per cent in many offices in G-4. El Toro marine corporation, has produced new teur radio station K6.

the state should avail itself of this resource," Simpson said. "The only way to do it is to call a conference together to determine how far the people want to go to work out the details."
The matter of the state entering a field in which there would be more or less competition with private business is bound to bring on a first class row in the state legislature. In California, at least, all television stations are privately operated, as all radio stationally operated, as are all radio stations, although the radio reserves time for public service broadcasts under instructions from the federal communications commission.
The state of New York, according to Simpson, already has engaged in the television business through taking advantage of some of the channels allocated by FFC on the east coast. Altogether, 240 channels have been allocated to education throughout the nation.
Many legislators, it is believed,

Freight charges have increased from 6 to 25 per cent in many areas, more in others. Rates for shipment of less than carload lots of some furniture have risen 35 to 130 per cent.
A number of large appliances, such as washing machines and freezers, are not covered by the price order. OPS said it is drafting separate orders covering these.
Social Security Boost of $5 Gets House Approval
WASHINGTON (UP)—The House today gave its final approval to legislation increasing Social Security benefits at least $5 a month for the 4½ million Americans now receiving payments. It is expected to cost about 300 million dollars a year.

Southern California District Lutherans Meet in Long Beach
Convention sessions of the Southern California district of the Lutheran church-Missouri synod were opened yesterday by District President Armand E. Mueller at Long Beach.
More than 225 laymen, school teachers and pastors from the 100 and more Lutheran organizations of the Southern California area heard Missouri Synod President Dr. John W. Behnken, St. Louis, report on the affairs of the national church body. The Southern California district is one of 32 districts in the Lutheran church-Missouri synod.
An essay, "The Call Into the Ministry" is being delivered to the four-day convention by Dr.

Plans for the establishment of 20 new churches in the Southern California area were announced by the Rev. Mueller, pastor of First Lutheran church, Van Nuys.
Mueller also reported that the Lutheran churches of the district recently pledged $276,000 toward the $10,000,000 mission and educational expansion program of the Missouri synod. The fund will be used to enlarge the education facilities for the preparation of Lutheran ministers and to establish new missions like those being contemplated in the Southern California area.
Two pilot films of the church's proposed $750,000 television program were shown to the convention on Monday evening. The program, "This is the Life," is scheduled to go on the air in September. Prepared in a family format, the TV show is "highly entertaining" according to President Behnken, "and is designed to show the power and peace the Christian gospel brings to ordinary people."
Report was made to the convention on the possible establishment of a home for handicapped children. An organization to support the proposed Good Shepherd Lutheran home of the west was incorporated in February of 1952 in Anaheim. Possible sites for the location of the home are being considered at the present time.

Greyhound Driver Earns 20-Year Safety Award
Driver Archie Berry, who has been operating buses in California since 1925, was the first Pacific Greyhound driver to go 20 years without a preventable-type accident. This announcement was made today by Robert E. Gocke, safety director of the company. He said that Berry has been with Pacific Greyhound since it was organized in 1929, and was formerly a driver for California Transit Co., one of the bus lines that merged at that time to form Pacific Greyhound Lines. He had earned successively a Hamilton watch for 10 years of accident-free driving, a ruby ring for 15 years, and a fine mantel clock for his latest record of 20 years.
Bus Driver Berry offers a few pointers on safe driving, whether in a bus or an automobile. Some of them are:

Traveling on southland highways, Col. Smith finds the greatest danger to be other modern vehicles whose drivers twist and turn to catch sight of station K6CN rolling by.

Emil T. Pingel, school teacher of Immanuel Lutheran school, Orange, and chairman of the district board of education reported that there are 3379 students in the parochial day schools of the district. Lutheran churches in the district operate 36 such day schools and employ 105 full-time parochial teachers.
Chaplain E. C. Manns of the veterans administration center of Los Angeles reported on the joint sponsorship with the National Lutheran council of a new service center in Los Angeles. A service center has been in operation at 1320 22nd street in San Diego since the fall of 1951. Chaplain Manns reported. The site of the merged at that time to form Pacific Greyhound Lines.

Bus Driver Berry offers a few pointers on safe driving whether in a bus or an automobile. Some of them are:
“Safety is a knack, or ‘feeling,’ the driver must have within himself, and this feeling should be cultivated by constant vigilance.
“Watch the driving mistakes of others, and try not to duplicate them.
“Always figure that the other driver will do something wrong, then you will be better prepared to do the right thing when required.
“It never pays to take a chance. A few seconds lost in heavy traffic may mean several years of life for someone, maybe you.”
