Bethel Baptist Church 8700 Anaheimers Register to Vote City Clerk Charles Griffith of Anaheim today revealed that approximately 8700 Anaheimers have registered to vote in the Nov. 4 general election. The figure will not be complete or final until the county registrar has had an opportunity to weed out duplications, registrants who have died in the meantime and other errors, Griffith said, but the figure will be fairly close from local registration records. Registration deadline was Sept. 11. In regard to the city utility bond election to be held Sept. 29, Griffith cautioned voters that only those who were registered as of April 6 will be eligible to vote on the bond issue.

Red Chinese Get Back Control of Changchun Railway Following Talks MOSCOW (UP)—The Soviet Union announced today that it is handling back control of Manchuura's vital Changchun railway to Communist China this year but that Russia will continue to use the Manchurian naval base of Pt.

HOLLYWOOD (UP)—Actor Glenn Ford came a cropper while chasing the villain in a scene for a Western movie yesterday. His horse balked and threw him. He crashed into a tree. He was hospitalized with three Tass, came at the conclusion of top level Soviet-Chinese talks which have been going on here since Aug. 17. The Tass announcement included three important points: 1. The new agreement on Port Arthur, which was occupied by Soviet forces at the end of World war II. Under the 30-year Russian-Chinese treaty of friendship signed in Moscow on Feb. 14, 1950, the Soviets agreed to get out of Port Arthur by the end of 1952. In a note published today Red China's premier and foreign minister, Chou En-lai, asked tre Soviets to stay because in the absence of the Japanese peace treaty with the Communist powers, "conditions have arisen dangerous for peace and favorable for a reiteration of Japanese aggression." 2. A communique said that "important political and economic questions concerning the relations" between the two countries were discussed. Details were not given. Under the 1950 act, Russia granted China 300 million dollars in credits toward the purchase of materials and equipment from the Soviet Union. Western observers had suggested that China probably was asking for additional aid because of her expenses in the Korean war. 3. Return of the Changchun bicycle with Eugene Morgan, 2511 W.

Bovett, Santa Ana taxi driver, looked into the muzzle of a pistol his passenger was pointing at him last night, and remembered the last time a taxi driver had faced a nicol in Santa Ana — last March 7, when Richard Grimslew, 25, was shot to death by Rory Clifford Broughton, 18-year-old marine. Bovett handed over the contents of his wallet, the loose change in his pocket, and the coins in his changer, some $12 alineer, to the stocky vulture Mexican, who stood beside his taxi, pointing the automatic pistol at the driver's midsection. "I'm luckier than Grimslev" he thought. "Grimsley was shot first, then robbed." According to Bovett's account to Santa Ana police later, he had answered a call from his Broadway taxi stand at 10:20 p.m. to pick up a fare at Brophy's cafe. Fourth and Saureon st., and take him to 908 Brown st. Instead of one fare, two were waiting at the cafe. The second fare, the stocky vulture Mexican, wanted to go to 34 Wisteria pl. Bovett noticed his flamboyant attire, a bright red shirt, open at the neck, Balboa blues and a black baseball cap. Boyett delivered the fare at the Brown address, then drove to Wisteria place, but overran the address. He stopped in the 500 block. The Mexican alighted and said that would be near enough. He opened the right front door and reached into his trouser's pocket, as though to produce money for the fare. Instead he drew an automatic pistol and rested it across the bank of the front seat pointing it directly at Boyett's midriff. "Give me your money," he ordered calmly speaking in broken English. "What do you mean?" answered Bovett. "You know what I mean. No funny business, now." Bovett knew what he meant and remembered Grimslev. He emptied his wallet on the front seat, then his pockets and the coin changer. "How about wour wrist watch?" said the Mexican. Boyett had no watch. "All right. Get your cab moving and get out of here." Bovett chewed with slurry and telenhoned police. He described the handit as about 24 or 25 years old. 5 feet. 6 or 8 inches tall, and weighing about 165 pounds. He wore a mustache. In launching his California campaign, Sen. Nixon will be introduced by Gov. Earl Warren. The vice presidential candidate has named Pomona talk as one of the major speeches of his election drive. Preparations have been completed to accommodate caravans or autos from all parts of Southern California. Raging Typhoon Hits Wake Island HONOLULU (P) — A raging typhoon with winds up to 140 miles an hour lashed tiny Wake Island yesterday, demolished living quarters and communications and sent the sea crashing over the entire island. Mountainous seas and torrential rains battered the island which is only 15 feet above sea level, all afternoon, subsiding only late at night. Air-sea rescue planes left Honolulu's Hickam Field and Kwailein this morning with food, water and medical supplies for the 600 men, women and children marooned on the coral speck 2300 miles west of here. The Military Transport Ainsworth was diverted from its course about 700 miles southeast of Wake and ordered to evacuate the stricken residents and transients. Scattered messages received here painted a picture of devastation. An unidentified Civil Aeronautics Authority maintenance man cranked up the radio of a grounded plane and gave first details of the disaster. The only injuries reported were comparatively minor: One man with a broken leg, another with fractured ribs. TOKYO (P) — Gen. Curtis LeMay, head of the U.S. Air Force Strategic Air Command, arrived today and immediately went into conference with the U.S. Far East commander, Gen. Mark Clark.

Reds Finish off Satellization Of East Germany BONN, Germany (AP) — The Kremlin appeared to regard the division of Germany as permanent, according to leading Ameri-can officials here, and now is finishing the transformation of eastern Germany into a full-fledged satellite state. The Soviets apparently have given up hope or getting Germany on their own terms, these officials believe, and have no intention of allowing free elections as the forerunner of unification. Instead they have embarked on the creation of a one party state in east Germany on the same pattern as the Communist-dominated puppet states in eastern Europe.

The 27 pupils of the sixth grade class of Mrs. Mary Fox returned all of its pledges before school convened, one half day after Optimist safety chairman Ed Wisser had distributed the pledges to all of the city's schools. Later tailings from other schools coming in with 100 per cent sign-up as school began included Thomas Jefferson's third grade class of Mrs. Margaret Haugh, last year's city wide winner. There were two classes from Zion Lutheran school reporting complete sign-ups. First honors in final go to Mrs. Maxine shusen's first and second and to Robert Heitshusen's and fourth grade. A further cled up shows only three pledges the entire school lacking for fect school record. Principal Wilbur Bonnet Benjamin Franklin stated his interest was high and rie keen among students. Seed pledges were returned shortly after school let out you day as some of the children hurried trips home for parity signatures. Pledges were returned in great numb throughout the school with other Benjamin Franklin lacking but one signature sharing first honors with Fox's sixth grade. The past week has seen a ple deal of activity by the Optin as the entire club, led by Prudent Al Garey, went to work with the Optimist's second and Anaheim Child Safety Camp Sparked by a preorganize meeting attended by school officials, law enforcement officer P-TA officers and the Optin themselves, the campaign into immediate high gear, Optimist paint crew, headed The Soviets apparently have given up hope or getting Germany on their own terms, these officials believe, and have no intention of allowing free elections as the forerunner of unification. Instead they have embarked on the creation of a one party state in east Germany on the same pattern as the Communist-dominated puppet states in eastern Europe. Americans here point out that the Russians have steadily widened the gulf between west and east Germany while exchanging notes with the west over the future of Germany. The Russians demand that talks on a peace treaty should be placed as the first item on the agenda of a big four conference on Germany. In the American view, the Soviets then would insist that the peace treaty forbid Germany to form any alliances with her war-time enemies. This would kill the elaborate program for the political and military integration of Germany with the west. The western powers insist that a neutral election inspection must come first. This would determine if really free elections to set up a national German government could be held in the four zones of Germany.

The aim paint crew, headed by Auditor Warns More Taxes Needed If Proposition 2 Passes Nov. 4 SACRAMENTO (UP)—If California voters approved a proposition carrying something like 70 million dollars extra for public school support, they'll probably have to pay higher taxes to keep the state out of the red, says the State Finance Department. The legislative auditor and the state controller agreed with the conclusion presented to a legislative subcommittee yesterday. Here, exactly, is what the department's tax expert, Ralph Curry, told a group of assemblymen: "Our analysis has demonstrated that any permanent substantial addition to the state's expenditure program must be accompanied by an increase in tax revenue, if the state government is to remain in a solvent financial position." The California teachers association, sponsor of Proposition 2, on the November ballot, says its cost—which the CTA estimates at 67 million dollars—could be met from existing revenues for the first year. The measure would go into effect July 1, 1953. Curry said the budget for the fiscal year beginning on that date could be balanced only if: 1. No substantial new expenditures were added. 2. Existing expenditure requirements were carefully examined, and 3. There was a continued increase in the present high level of business activity. The three taxes which produce more than 85 per cent of the state's general fund income—the levies on sales, personal incomes and corporations—are directly dependent on business conditions. The CTA says that if tax revenues go up eight per cent—the lowest rate of increase in any of the last three years—no increase in the tax rates will be needed.
