'Blockbuster' Item Anaheim will be hit by stores-full of "blockbusters" Friday and Saturday. Local residents are assured, however that they won't have to seek shelter underground or anywhere else. In fact, they've invited collectively by the merchants of Anaheim to come downtown Friday and these merchandising "exploit" In Thursday's MORNING tures of dozens of blockbust heart of any thrifty Dollar 300 Reds Die As UN Fake Attack Works SEOUL (UP)—A famed U. S. fighting outfit with explosives and flame-throwers Tuesday smashed two hill positions and killed an estimated 300 Chinese Communists who were badly fooled by a feint. About 200 raiders, who cannot be identified by division number, blew up bunkers and killed Chinese for three hours before withdrawing from the western front hills under intense Communist mortar fire. Tank Diversion Allied tanks and artillery feinted at a third hill nearby, hammering it so furiously the Communists apparently thought the attack would strike there. This kept them from reinforcing the hills hit by the infantry. It was the biggest allied raid since the ill-fated "Operation Smac!" Jan. 25.

This kept them from reinforcing the hills hit by the infantry. It was the biggest allied raid since the ill-fated "Operation Smaci;" Jan. 25. AP Photographer George Sweers who witnessed the raid, said Marine Corsair fighter-bombers pounded the Reds all day Monday preceding the attack. The infantry jumped off in cold but sunny weather. "To keep the Chinese guessing the general unnamed had his artillery pound the hell out of still another hill way on the left and sent a big tank force out there to shoot straight into it—about 24 tanks altogether," Sweers said. Chinese Fooled The idea to fool the Chinese into holding back reinforcements until too late and the plan worked "just right." Sweers added. The attackers sent one reinforced U. S. platoon—about 100 men-swarming up one Red hill position on the right took longer but a second reinforced platoon fought to the top. The raiders swapped hand grenades, rifle and automatic weapon on fire with the Reds who soon ducked into their deep tunnels, the Eighth army said. "There are muffled explosions from the crest," Sweers wrote. "Our guys are blowing the bunkers. The Chinese are in their holes—deep ones. Our guys are squirting them with flamethrowers and pitching grenades." Reds Mortar Hill There was no announcement of allied casualties but Sweers said the Chinese turned mortar fire on their own hill and "chopped up" the attackers. "There was a continuous line of blood spots on the dirt and snow where the dead and dying were brought back after the assault," he said.

Nearly one half the building permits issued in January, 1952, were granted for the same period this year, but the total value of the permits for January, 1953, was almost doubled, figures released by Building Inspector Homer Wallace showed. Only 35 building permits were issued this January, in comparison with 52 permits granted in January of 1952. This year, however, the value amounted to $437,545. Last year's total came to a mild $232,394.

County Mothers to March Tomorrow Night to Climax '52 March of Dimes Orange county's greatest mass action against infantile paralysis will be launched tomorrow, when the Mothers' March will take place in every city and community, Stan Bates, county drive chairman, announced today. The activity in each town will take the form of a one-hour march by hundreds of P-TA mothers from all sections of the county. It will take the form of a climax to the 1953 March of Dimes campaign—following the worst polio epidemic in history. The March—in which men and children will join the mothers by becoming "mothers for a night"—is expected to double last year's effort and will constitute the most intensive one-hour fund-raising campaign in history. Invitation in Lights In Orange county, the symbol for the Mothers' March will be a lighted porch light—signifying that the occupants are inviting a volunteer mother to pick up a March of Dimes contribution. Where apartment house dwellings prevail, handkerchiefs tied to door knobs or shoes left outside of doorways will constitute welcome signals for volunteers. Most of the Mothers' Marches are scheduled to take place during the early evening hours when two of the students, Dan Holden and Darroll Webb are attending the University of California at Berkeley, while Bonnie Jean Smith and Davis Taylor are studying at UCLA. The fifth student, Shelly E. Smith, attends the Santa Barbara extension of the university. The grade point average of the first-year students from the large Southern California high schools is 1.41, with the average of all accredited high schools in Southern California slightly lower, at 1.3. Both averages are in the C-plus class.

Near zero cold, snow and hail wrought miser among thousands marooned for four days as rescuers of a half dozen nations fought by sea and County to Adm HELEY of the naval hames in its wide spread flood damage along England's east coast and reached national disaster proportions along the Holland and Belgian coastal areas.

The council decided, instead, to grant a variance to the owners, Means and Ulrich, for requested use of the property for contractors' storage. Attorney Ronald M. Crookshank, representing the hospital, objected to the rezoning proposal. The hospital's only interest in the question, he said, was the matter of noise. While there is light industry near the hospital now, it is not noisy. The hospital, he said, would not object to the requested use of Means and Ulrich, but believes that the council should maintain control of each individual request for property use in the hospital area, to be sure that it might not be diverted in the future to some use that would generate noise or offensive odors. The hospital, he pointed out, has just spent $10,000 moving its own laundry from one side of the hospital to a new building at the other side, in order to eliminate odors. Councilmen agreed with Crookshank and decided to grant the variance requested, but deny the rezoning petition. AMSTERDAM (P)—North Sea waves pounding through broken Dutch dikes threatened Tuesday night to swell hundreds the death toll of storms and floods that already have claimed more than 1600 lives in Holland, England and Belgium. Near zero cold, snow and hail wrought miser among thousands marooned for four days as rescuers of a half dozen nations fought by sea and air to reach them. Many were numb and suffering from exposure. While the fury eased in England and Belgium, Holland stayed fast in the grip of the most terrible flood this country has seen since the 15th century. She was the hardest hit of the three countries, with a thousand square miles of rich crop land inundated by deadening salt water and a million of her people threatened with ruin. Dikes Broken Anew A new burst in the dikes was reported at Bommel on the north coast of Goeree-Overflakke Island. Seas roared through a hole 35 yards wide and five yards deep and swept inland. Bommel has a population of 2000. The losses in homes, land and livestock run into uncounted millions of dollars. With potato land reduced, Holland embargoed the export of potatoes. More than 400 square miles were flooded in England. Arthur Haulet, Belgian tourist commissioner, said damage to Belgium's seaside resorts alone is 10 million dollars. The final death toll may exceed 2000. This was the latest count from official and reliable unofficial sources: Holland—1053. England—536. Belgium—22. While royalty of the three nations worked to comfort their afflicted, help and expressions of sympathy poured in from neighboring countries and the United States. The league of Red Cross societies estimated that more than 100,000 persons in England and Holland had lost their homes. Red Cross supplies valued at more than $250,000, including bedding and clothing, are on the way by rail and air. A vast rescue network mobilized to answer frantic pleas for help from isolated Dutch communities. American, German, British, Canadian, and other forces joined the Dutch in the rescue efforts. Premier Willem Drees told the Dutch parliament 50,000 victims of the national catastrophe are still to be evacuated. Welfare Dept. County to Admn City Government Unable to collect any tax money before next December, the new city of Buena Park would have no municipal functions carried on by the county, as in the past, under an agreement approved by the county supervisors, yesterday after errno and submitted to the Buena Park city council last night. Law enforcement, building inspection road and street maintenance, and such activities will be administered by the county officials, as if Buena Park still were unincorporated territory. For its service, the county would provide training for mentally retarded children in Terra Bella got another boost Monday when Dr. Charles Ludwik superintendent of the Porterville State home offered the home free medical and psychiatric care, to be provided by the state. Dr. Ludwig, who is now drawing plans for the Fairview Station hospital at Costa Mesa, also offered the board of directors meeting in Terra Bella, four hours a week of his own time for consultation and personnel problems. The board, presided over by President A. J. Schutte, of Anaheim, authorized the hiring of a architect, J. P. Lockett, of Vaila. Religious and vocational therapy training of the retarded children will be provided by the home. Officially named the Good Shepherd Lutheran Home of West, the home will care for 35 children on 50 acres of land, which finished. Construction will begin in 1953. On the board of directors from Anaheim, are Paul Yorde, vice president; Emmet Engstorm, treasurer; Mrs O C. Ulrich; secretary O M. Gissler, and the Rev E. P. Santa Ana Police Allowed by City To Work Off-Duty Santa Ana police officers who have been doing after-hour policing of private business establishments, which pay the officers, may continue to do so without consulting the civil service board in advance, the city council decided last night in turning a cold shoulder on a civil service board complaint naming four officers. The officers had received permission from Chief B. A. Hershey to take the extra work while off duty, and that suited the council especially after Chief Hershey noted that it was work the police department itself would have to do as a regular duty, if the private establishments did not pay for it. It was a job that required a regularly qualified police officer, Hershey added. Two of the four officers named by the civil service board, Sgt. D. G. Gross and Sgt. H. H. Ely, had not been so employed, Hershey informed the council. The other officers were Patrolman Franklin Carter and Det. Sgt. Clarence Johnson, Johnson had been on extra duty at the Mayfair market on S. Main st. Chief Hershey requested the council to grant him authority to make such assignments to extra duty, without reference to the civil service board. The council did so, and sent word to the civil service board to eliminate its rule covering the question. Welfare Dept. To Check Beggars Services of the county welfare department in checking the credentials of beggars operating on city streets was offered to Santa Ana city council last evening in a communication from County Welfare Director Thomas P. Douglas, who said he had noted newspaper publicity regarding difficulty with a multiplicity of beggars whose status was regarded as "phony." The welfare department has a trained staff available for the investigation of such cases, and the determination of their worthiness or unworthiness, Douglass advised the council. Council received a claim from Rosa Lieberman, 910 Lacy st., for $150 damages to cover medical costs of an injury she received in a fall on a Stafford st. sidewalk between Lacy and Minter sts. The claim was referred to the city attorney. UN Staff Council Gets Yank Blast UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (P)—Twelve American members of the U.N.'s International Staff Council quit that group Tuesday because of what they considered its unfriendly stand on U.S. loyalty investigations of American U.N. employees. In a letter to council President Daniel Hogg of Britain, the 12 said they felt the full co-operation Secretary General Trygvie Lie was giving U.S. authorities was proper and in the best interests of the staff. Man Shoplifts Four Women's Coats Santa Ana police today were searching for a Mexican who stepped inside the front door of the Sears store at 1715 S. Main st., yesterday, removed four women's coats worth $125 from a rack, and then carried them out to a car that was waiting at the curb with its motor running. A customer standing near the door observed the theft and reported it to the management, but the shoplifter by that time was out of sight.

Dodge Initiates Economy Measures in Government WASHINGTON (AP)—Stringent new government hiring and spending rules—with actual necessity as the yardstick—were laid down by the Eisenhower administration Tuesday. In swift followup to the economy and budget-balancing pronouncements in President Eisenhower's state of the union message, Budget Director Joseph M. Dodge laid out the rules to be applied now: 1. Hiring of workers to be cut off, including the filling of vacancies. Until it has been determined whether the job can be eliminated, people already on the payroll can make the addition unnecessary. 2. Construction be limited to projects which are "clearly essential," whether they are new jobs or building already under way, and that the "strictest standards of economy" apply on the work. Sen Taft of Ohio Tuesday forecast quick congressional approval for President Eisenhower's plan to repudiate any secret agreements with Soviet Russia. Eisenhower's plan was widely regarded in congress as the first move toward carrying out his presidential campaign promise, that the U.S. will seek to bring about the liberation of captive peoples behind the iron curtain, by means short of war. Federal wage-price controls began tumbling Tuesday amid high confusion as to when they would all end. The White House rapped the knuckles of a top agency official for saying wage controls would be dropped immediately. But most controls were already County to Administer Buena Park City Government for Fee of $1 To collect any tax motive next December, the new Buena Park would have itsipal functions carried on by county, as in the past, under agreement approved by the supervisors, yesterday affirmed and submitted to the Buek city council last night. Enforcement, building in, road and street maintenance such activities will be authorized by the county officials if Buena Park still were incorporated territory. Service, the county would collect the sum of $1, besides all license and other fees and any fines collected. The city also would pay the county the actual cost of labor and materials used in street work. Taxes Already Paid The nominal sum fixed for reimbursement was set on the theory that Buena Park residents, by their payment of the current year's taxes have already paid for the administrative service they would receive. The sheriff's office will enforce only state laws within the city, until such time as city ordinances are passed to cover crime. Buena Park already has, in addition to the ordinance fixing the time and place for council meetings, a planning ordinance and a building ordinance, under which county officers can operate. It was considered likely that some other ordinance might be passed Tuesday evening, although the council is "going slow" with ordinances, according to City Attorney Warren Ferguson, until a city manager is hired, to advise on procedure. Employment of the city manager is required within 60 days after incorporation of the city. Until June The agreements with the county extends to the end of the present fiscal year, June 30, 1953. It could be legally extended into the next fiscal year, and a new agreement will have to be entered then for continued county administration until Buena Park devises its own means of financing, officials said. County Auditor L. H. Eckel advised Buena Park officials recently that the city cannot borrow funds for its operations until it acquires a "tax expectancy" by setting up a budget and fixing a tax rate for the next fiscal year. Thus, it was indicated that it would be late summer before the city could negotiate a short term loan, for repayment from December tax collections. Defiant Reds Get Prison Sentences NEW YORK (P)—Thirteen defiant second string Communist leaders, who preferred imprisonment to life in Russia, Tuesday were sentenced to terms ranging from one to three years. They plan an appeal. Seven drew three years in prison. County Auditor L. H.

The Boy who Recommended Himself By Rev. Wm. McKINLEY WALKER Wesley Methodist Church A man advertised for an office boy and nearly 50 boys showed up for the job. Out of the whole number he selected one and dismissed the rest. "Why did you select that boy who didn't have any recommendations, while a number of the boys had excellent recommendations from prominent men in this city?" asked the secretary. "On what grounds did you select him?" "You are mistaken about him not having any recommendations," said the boss, "he had a great many. He wiped his feet when he came in, and closed the door after him, showing that he was careful. He gave his seat instantly to that lame old gentleman, showing he was kind and thoughtful. He answered my questions politely and courteously. He picked up the book which I had purposely laid on the floor, and replaced it upon the table, while all the rest stepped over it, showing that he was orderly; and he waited quietly his turn, instead of pushing and crowding. I noticed that his hair was combed, his clothing was tidy and his finger nails clean. Do you not call those good recommendations for this office? I do." What about it, boys. Some day you will be looking for a job. Do you want to work in the kind of a place that doesn't care, or would you like to be employed in an office or shop that has respect for you and expects treatment in kind? Now is the time to begin to practice so that you will be ready when you make application and won't have to have a last minute going over. Good habits grow on one as well as bad ones if given a chance.
