Anaheim Gazette THURSDAY MORNING, FEB. 5, 1958 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Auto Club Asks New Funds Go For Highways LOS ANGELES (CP)—The Automobile club of Southern California proposed Wednesday that funds resulting from any new sources of revenue for highway construction be designated for a limited mileage major highway system. The system would consist of 4600 to 5000 miles of the most congested metropolitan and rural main routes within the state, the auto club said. Acquisition of rights of way and construction on the system must "be given highest priority," the announcement said. The club advocated financing of an expanded state highway project believed to have originated in gram from the following sources. 1. An increase of one cent a gallon in the present gasoline tax. 2. An increase of 20 per cent in other highway users' taxes. 3. A 500 million dollar bond issue to acquire rights of way for construction on the most congested portions of the major state highway system. Increases in population, the number of motor vehicles and the cost of building roads have made service on major rural and metropolitan highways 15 years behind the times, the club said. In the France of the Middle Ages, "vessalage" meant "prowess in arms" and the word only gradually came to mean subservience. It is believed that St. Peter was martyred in Rome in 67 A.D. The balance scale for weighing believed to have originated in pre-dynastic Egypt. Anaheim Cooperative Hears Annual Report Because of the generally short crop of oranges in all Southern California areas last year, the volume of fruit handled by Anaheim Cooperative Orange Association in 1952 was less than in 1951; the crop throughout Southern California was short by 21 percent. Some districts, however, had much lower yields. The foregoing is a part of the report of T. E. Woodward, secretary-manager of the association, at the 34th annual meeting held Wednesday, Feb. 4 at Knott's Berry Farm, Buena Park. Some 200 growers and their guests enjoyed a chicken dinner prior to the business sessions which were conducted by J. A. Baker, chairman of the board of directors. Baker recently returned from a month's visit to Florida and reviewed briefly some of the highlights of what he saw of Florida citrus. BLOCK BUSTER—TELEVISION SPECIAL—Baker's Anaheim, 250 W.

Annual Report at Meeting A report of the generally short oranges in all Southern Florida areas last year, the of fruit handled by Ana-operative Orange Association 1952 was less than in 1951, hop throughout Southern Florida was short by 21 per cent districts, however, had lower yields. Pregoing is a part of the re-establishment of the association, at which annual meeting held day, Feb. 4 at Knott's Farm, Buena Park. Some owners and their guests enchicken dinner prior to the sessions which were conjoined J. A. Baker, chairman board of directors. Baker returned from a month's Florida and reviewed some of the highlights of saw of Florida citrus. The labor supply last season was ample until near the close, Manager Woodward reported. Early in August Mexican Nationals, after having enjoyed two months prosperity in citrus, began to go AWOL and it was necessary to recruit other workers. From a marketing standpoint, heavy exports of small size Valencias served to strengthen the domestic market, for the public wanted the larger sizes. This was quite evident near the end of the season when, because exports were cut off, small sizes were thrown on the domestic market and the housewives resisted. The association exported more fruit in 1952 than in its history and the small sizes brought more money on the export market than they did in the United States. It was the first season in many years that the citrus industry operated without volume proration. The shippers themselves controlled the movement of fruit in such a manner that there were no serious gluts. As to the future, the on coming crop appears to be about 20 percent larger in volume than last season, but the small size problem will confront the industry again. At the conclusion of the regular business sessions President Baker introduced visitors from the Citrus Experiment Station, Riverside and Mutual Orange Distributors. In line with MOD's policy of doing something about the small size problem, A. L. Chandler, manager of the MOD field services department, introduced two of the Experiment Station's staff—Dr. Dan Aldrich, Jr., of the department of soils and Plant Nutrition, and Dr. L. C. Erickson of the department of Plant Physiology. Erickson discussed the use of plant hormones—2.4-D—as a means of increasing fruit sizes. Robbins Russel general manager of Mutual Orange Distributors discussed marketing while George Graham of Citrus-Growers Inc., spoke on the labor problem. FACE-LIFTING FOR PALACE RIO DE JANEIRO (P)—Brazil's famed Itamarati palace, seat of the ministry of foreign relations, soon will undergo a major reconstruction job.
