Teamwork Makes Nation Strong, Meeting Told Teamwork between farmers and canners in turning out approximately $750,000,000 worth of canned and frozen foods in California is an example of how the free enterprise system makes America the strongest country in the world. That message was brought to the Anaheim Rotary club yesterday by J. Roger Deas, of the American Can company, at a regular meeting in the Elks club cafe. "It is American craftsmanship and business know-how, energetically applied in a system of private enterprise that has made canning and allied industries a major source of prosperity for farmers, fishermen and industrial workers in California," said the representative of the container-making firm. The income of the state's farmers has been expanded through the cultivation of more than 240,000 acres of vegetables for sale to canners and freezers. Deas said, while another 224,000 acres of fruit lands are devoted to the same purpose. He said that in Orange county last year citrus orchards produced a harvest valued at $47,000,000, representing 40 per cent of the county's farm income. "In view of the tremendous expansion in the canned and frozen citrus juice and ade concentrate fields, it is of interest to note that 27 per cent of the orange bearing acreage and nine per cent of the lemon bearing acreage in California is located in Orange county," he said. "Last year, approximately 80 per cent of the citrus fruit harvest was canned as frozen and shelf pack orange juice, lemon juice and other concentrates." Deas said that Orange county's farmers devote more than 6000 acres of land to truck crops for processing and annually derive over $1,300,000 from the sale of these vegetables. He said that canneries in the INDIAN ROYALTY—Princess Sunbeam, above, and his partner, Smoky Chism, will be featured performers in an exhibition of trick roping and riding at the Indian show and Hallowe'en parade at La Palma park Saturday night.
