ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY MORNING, FEBRU
VISHINSKY LEADS WITH HIS RIGHT—Britain's Sir Gladwyn Jebb has that "here we go again" look as Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Vishinsky expresses his views in no uncertain terms at the United Nations Political Committee here today. Vishinsky, answering U.S. chief delegate Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., demanded that North Korea be invited to attend the U.N. debate on the Korean dispute. Lodge told the committee that Russia started and is continuing the Korean war.
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP)—Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., charged Wednesday Russia started the Red aggression in Korea and is continuing it, ostrich-like, with full aid to the communist Chinese and North Koreans. The reference to the ostrich got an immediate rise out of the Russians but they reserved detailed rebuttal until after further study. Lodge's maiden speech for the Elsembower administration in the 60-nation Political Committee.
Rural Building Hits High Peak With $1,289,952
Anaheim rural area's building permit valuations reached $79,312 in valuation during the past week, which was one of the heaviest in the history of the county's unincorporated territory. The county total was $1,289,952. Anaheim area ranked third among the unincorporated areas of the county.
Far in the lead, and responsible for three-fourths of the total, was Garden Grove, where valuation of permits soared to $900,982 for the week. One tract of 57 homes, costing $590,758, and another tract of 29 homes costing $184,400 were chief items in the Garden Grove total.
Anaheim area permits included six residences being erected by B.C. Crow, Costa Mesa builder, in the 7700 and 7800 blocks of Roden st., at a total cost of $60,000; a $15,562 residence for Giacama Lugao at 9002 Crescent ave. and miscellaneous permits aggregating $3760.
Building totals for the week, by communities, follow:
In his first policy speech in the general assembly as the new U.S. chief delegate, Lodge said there is little use formulating new truce proposals such as the rejected Indian plan for voluntary retaliation of prisoners of war so long as the Soviet Union is determined to continue the war.
Lodge grimly rolled off 10 points which he said showed the Russians instigated and are continuing the Korean conflict. He challenged Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky to disprove them. Vishinsky snapped back that he would answer this challenge after studying the official record of Lodge's speech.
Red Loses Vote
Vishinsky lost a determined drive to have the political committee invite the Red north Koreans here to take part in the debate on Korea. The vote was 16 in favor, 35 opposed and six abstaining. But the voting was overshadowed by the first tilt between Vishinsky and Lodge since the ex-senator from Massachusetts came to the UN.
Lodge opened the attack by saying that every element of American life is eager for peace. Looking directly at Vishinsky after pointedly ignoring him up to that time, Lodge said:
"Apparently the Soviet Union, answering U.S. chief delegate Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., demanded that North Korean be invited to attend the U.N. debate on the Korean dispute. Lodge told the committee that Russia started and is continuing the Korean war."
Station Bandit Gets only Sore Jaw from Worker
Attempting to hold up the Howard Ryan Tire Co., 801 W. First St., Santa Ana, after closing hours a young Mexican bandit got only lump on the jaw for his pains.
Quick thinking and acting a nervy employee, Peter Williams who was placing the day's receipt up the safe when the bandit came in, saved the cash.
Williams slugged the bandit through the front door, after which Williams slammed the door, ran get his own gun and telephone police. Officers searching the neighborhood could find no trace of the defeated thug.
Williams had just closed the front door at 6:25 p.m., two minutes later after the departure of the last employee to leave. The sai is located near a large front window, about two feet from the front door.
When a knock came on the door Williams thought some employee was returning for a forgotten article. He opened the door and the Mexican about 21 or 23 came in.
Anaheim area permits included six residences being erected by B. C. Crow, Costa Mesa builder, in the 7700 and 7800 blocks of Roden st., at a total cost of $60,000; a $15,562 residence for Giacama Lugao at 9002 Crescent ave. and miscellaneous permits aggregating $3760.
Building totals for the week, by communities, follow:
Garden Grove $900.982, Costa Mesa $83.400, Anaheim $79.312, Tustin $57.800, Pujana Park $35.050, La Habra $18.000, Capistrano Beach $18.000, Los Alamitos $14.700; Newport Beach $13.780, Fullerton $12.800, Midway City $11.300, Westminster $10.912.

One Red Dead in POW Outburst
TOKYO (UP)—Red prisoners attacked two U.S. compound commanders on island camps Tuesday in quick outbursts that ended with one Communist dead and three captives injured, the U.N. POW Command said today Thursday.
Both commanders escaped unhurt.
Three North Koreans jumped a U.S. officer and his interpreter on Koje Island when the officer caught one stealing coal.
A tower guard shot one Red to death and wounded the other two.
On Pongam, rocky island camp near Koje, a Red civilian prisoner attacked the unarmed compound commander, who fought back with a stick.
The captive was taken to Koje hospital with serious injuries.
Convicted Negro Freed by Court
RALEIGH, N.C. (UP)—A Negro sharecropper convicted of assault because he looked at a white girl was freed Wednesday by North Carolina's Supreme Court.
The court reversed a conviction on an assault charge in Caswell county Superior Court last November against Mack Ingram. Witnesses testified at the Negro's trials that he never got closer than 65 feet to Willie Jean Boswell, the prosecuting witness. Judge Frank Armstrong gave Ingram a six-month suspended sentence, but the Negro appealed.
Ejected Patron Kicks in Door
Walt Carner, owner of the Moda delicatessen, 244 E. Center st., found out last night it might be more satisfactory to have an unsatisfactory customer on the inside rather than the outside.
As a result of locking Paul Saucedo, 1026 Patt st., out of his store, the glass in the front door got kicked out, through the efforts of Saucedo:
Carner decided that Saucedo had become a bit bolsterous, and when the undesirable customer stepped out for a breath of air he quickly closed the door.
Saucedo demanding that he be leaved in, and knowing that Carner had locked the store, up 3 minutes early, became enraged.
Giving vent to his anger, he kicked in the glass door.
However, a few minutes later after a brief consultation at the police station, Saucedo agreed to make restitution for the broken glass, and the two parted on good terms.

Are There Special Privileges Here?
(EDITORIAL)
City Hall's appropriation of a number of parking stalls in a public parking lot for exclusive use of city employees grants them a SPECIAL PRIVILEGE denied other, equally deserving, people.
The well-known, much talked-about parking problem in Anaheim and other Southern California cities is just as real and just as troublesome to the shopper and the privately-employed worker as it is to the city employee.
Actually, all of Anaheim’s city parking lots are paid for by the taxpayers and remain the property of the public (taxpayers), for use by all of them on an impartial basis.
Anaheim originally began establishing city parking lots so that shoppers who traded with local merchants would have a place to park their cars. Private stalls for city workers thwart this original purpose, just as much as private stalls for any private concern would thwart it.

privately-employed worker as it is to the city employee.
Actually, all of Anaheim’s city parking lots are paid for by the taxpayers and remain the property of the public (taxpayers), for use by all of them on an impartial basis.
Anaheim originally began establishing city parking lots so that shoppers who traded with local merchants would have a place to park their cars. Private stalls for city workers thwart this original purpose, just as much as private stalls for any private concern would thwart it. Usurpation of any portion of the parking lot for private use is a transgression of the right of the individual to the use of public property, regardless of whether the CITY usurps it or whether it is done by a PRIVATE PARTY or CONCERN.
City officials who try to justify the reservation of parking stalls by pointing out that city employees have to be at work at certain times and don't have time to hunt for parking places forget that privately-employed persons are faced with the same problem, but solve it in a different way: They start from home a bit earlier to give themselves the required hunting time! It might be well for city employees to follow suit.
It was argued by one official that employees who are in and out of their cars while working waste the taxpayers' money when they spend time hunting for a place to park. That might be so, but similar solicitude for the taxpayers' money seems to be entirely lacking several times per day when the employees depart for the nearest coffee counter for a cup and a 20-minute rest.
Not that we'd advocate doing away with the traditional coffee hour—we merely cite it as an example.
The Gazette has no quarrel with the imposition of a two-hour time limit on parking in the lot south of the Gas Co. However, the time limit should be applied impartially with NO SPECIAL PRIVILEGE OR CONSIDERATION GIVEN ANYONE.
What will be done to correct the inequitable situation will not be known until the city council meets again March 10. In the meantime, it would seem a good idea for the city officials responsible for it to bend their energies to better serving the community which pays their salaries rather than to working out SPECIAL PRIVILEGES FOR THEMSELVES.

g to Meet Stalin
take Qualifies Offer by Requiring that any Agreement Would be Self-Enforcing
WASHINGTON (UP)—President Eisenhower voiced willingness Wednesday to meet Joseph Stalin face to face and thresh out differences splitting East and West. The President imposed conditions, however, that the Russians have turned down repeatedly in the past. Eisenhower made his qualified offer in response to questions at his second news conference since taking office. He said he would meet anybody anywhere—even half-way to Russia—and advance the cause of peace. But said he would do so only if any agreements made were self-enforceable—that is, if there were safeguards against violation.
Russia has rejected "self-enforcements consistently." A stable case in points the often-used American proposal for depriving of atomic energy unUnited Nations auspices. The Russians have refused to permit or any other inspection teams Soviet soil.

Eisenher was startled at first on a correspondent sang out link you, Mr. President!' and led for a phone. Then the incident laughed uproariously away back to his office. The President said among other things:
"This country might find it in an awkward position if it had to repudiate all the secret elements made by Democratic residents with the Russians in Idaho."
Gen. Van Fleet Arrives Home Proudly Confident
SAN FRANCISCO (UP)—General James A. Van Fleet returned home to a hero's welcome Wednesday and proudly declared "my Eighth army" in Korea, "can always advance another step and fire another shot."
Plugs Offensive
The retiring 60-year-old general reiterated that he certainly believes a general offensive in Korea can be successful at this time. A farewell statement in Seoul to that effect touched off reverberations in Washington and led to invitations to appear before congressional committees.
In a brief statement read to a crowded press conference, Van Fleet also recalled that on Feb. 11 in Tokyo reporters had asked if a major offensive could break the present military deadlock.
"I answered 'certainly.'" he said. "Any offensive would break the military deadlock which is one of our choosing and not imposed by the enemy.
testimony before the armed services committee on Wednesday.
"Big Jim's" 38 years of army service ends March 31.
Earlier at a big civic luncheon he told 1000 civic dignitaries military authorities and guests:
Freedom's Frontline
"Korea is the front line of freedom, opposing a Russian supported and Stalin directed attack, and it is a battle line which, if lost, loses far more than Korea.
If Korea is lost, Japan and the rest of Asia would soon follow suit, and the Pacific ocean would be a Communist highway."
But the four-star general who led the Eighth army for 22 months was far from a defeatist.
"We shall win in Korea," he said. "We shall win in the end wherever freedom can be challenged."
Los Alamitos Asks
A farewell statement in Seoul to that effect touched off reverberations in Washington and led to invitations to appear before congressional committees.
In a brief statement read to a crowded press conference, Van Fleet also recalled that on Feb. 11 in Tokyo reporters had asked if a major offensive could break the present military deadlock.
"I answered 'certainly,'" he said. "Any offensive would break the military deadlock which is one of our choosing and not imposed by the enemy."
Can Always Advance
"The Eighth army can always advance another step and fire another shot."
"I hope I have made that clear for all time," he added.
However, Van Fleet refrained from answering any controversial questions. Nor did he indicate what recommendations he may have for President Eisenhower.
Van Fleet is scheduled to have a confidential session with the president and congressional leaders next Tuesday, followed by fearing floods in the event of heavy rainstorms, Los Alamitos has appealed through its chamber of commerce, to the county board of supervisors for flood protection work along Coyote Creek.
Secretary Lura Laburdette of the chamber of commerce laid before the county supervisors a proposal that protected valves be placed along the creek where necessary for drainage.
Her plan would call for installation of automatic flood control gates at drains in the creek channel. When storm waters reached a certain level in the creek bed it would automatically close the gates and keep the flow confined.
Experience in that community, said Mrs. Labourette, shows that most damaging inundations are due not alone to surface runoff but to crest floods overflowing drains in the creek. The community probably could handle disposal of surface flow itself after flood waters recede, she stated.
The supervisors were requested to coordinate flood control work between this county and Los Angeles county.

People Always Look for Bargains
By Rev. Wm. McKINLEY WALKER
Wesley Methodist Church
Remember the story of the fellow who was saving coupons from soap wrappers to exchange for furniture? After he had filled three rooms with soap, he concluded he didn't have any place to put the furniture.
Isn't that like most of us? We are eternally looking for "bargains." If we see something with a price marked down, we can hardly wall 'til we get it whether we need it or not. Our garages, attics, closets, living rooms, are full of bargains.
Which leads us to the conclusion that articles are not necessarily bargains because the price tag has been changed. We receive some of the greatest bargains at great cost.
Read the parables of our Savior (Matt. 13:44-46) where he tells of the men who exchanged everything they had for the "Hidden Treasure" and "The Pearl of Great Price." These were real bargains and the merchants knew it. They meant the salvation of their souls.
Yes, articles are not bargains just because they are cheap, but are inexpensive when we deny ourselves the frivolous things in order that we may have the needful ones.
