Sen. Murdy Backs Out as Co-Author Of Tenney Bill Although he is officially listed as co-author of the measure, State Senator John A. Murdy of Orange county has announced that he will not support the freedom of choice bill sponsored by State Senator Jack B. Tenney of Los Angeles county. Senator Murdy said that he had given verbal notice on the senate floor that he would withdraw as co-author, but understood that he could not remove his name from the bill, which lists eight senators as co-authors. The measure would write into the state constitution a proposed amendment providing the right to choose associates, customers, tenants, and employees, and to sell property to selected buyers. An attempt to place a proposed city ordinance containing similar provisions on the Santa Ana city election ballot April 7 was refused. Senator Murdy said that he agreed with Senator Luther Gibson of Vallejo, who also withdrew as co-author, saying that the amendment would have the effect of overruling court decisions interpreting existing rights of free citizens. "I may have been a little naive as a freshman senator when the bill was presented for my signature," Murdy explained. Anaheim Misses Huge County Building Volume Orange county's rural territory had perhaps the heaviest volume of building in its history last year. City Approve City to Seek County Funds For Maintenance of Parks County funds for partial upkeep of Anaheim city parks will be sought by the city council following a report by Recreation Director Don Derr Tuesday night, showing that local residents, who now shoulder the load of upkeep expenses, use the parks far less than residents of other localities. Derr's analysis and report cited that the county should sume the responsibility for least a third of the expense maintaining the parks. That wa amount to about $10,000 a year. His report, made in collaboration with City Park Superintendent Vic Ruedy, showed that of annual plants have had to given up because of the threat that crowd the park each w that a full-time police patrol had to be engaged for the p that additional clean-up crews to be hired for clean-up due and after weekend picnic thre had used the park; most accid occurring in the parks, he no happen to out-of-towners, thus ping the city's liability rates; itary facilities have been enlarged but are still inadequate.

Chamber Hits Anaheim Misses Huge County Building Volume Orange county's rural territory had perhaps the heaviest volume of building in its history last week when valuation of building permits soared to $2,130,730. Surprisingly there were no permits issued in the Anaheim area for the period, although five communities went over the $100,000 mark and a sixth came near that figure. Another splurge in subdivision activity put the Garden Grove area at the top with nearly $1,000,000 in valuation of permits for the week. Its total of $873,056 included three large subdivision projects. South Laguna came up with an unusual total for that area, $413,600, more than it would compile ordinarily in several years time. Two large school building permits placed Buena Park third, with a total of $280,768. Tustin was fourth with $177,865 and Costa Mesa fifth with $115,950. Westminster had an aggregate of $92,772 in value of permits. Other community totals were: Cypress $36,738, Stanton $23,128, San Juan Capistrano $21,532, La Habra $19,000, Orange $18,500, Placentia $17,800, Ocean View $13,040, Fullerton $12,600, Midway City $12,200, Huntington Beach $1120, miscellaneous $1100.

But employees of the R. A. Wattson Co., contractors on the land section of the outfall, which includes the tunnel project and coffer dam, crossed the pile driver picket lines last weekend after first refusing to cross. The pile driver union, employed by the Healy Tibbitts Co., contractors on the adjoining ocean section of the outfall, contended that construction of the coffer dam was work properly belonging to the pile drivers' union, and the Wattson Co. should not use labor as a freshman senator when the bill was presented for my signature." Murdy explained.

'In Principle' Approval Given Reorganization Tuesday night, Anaheim city council endorsed in principle the legislative bill for reorganization of the Orange county water district to facilitate replenishment of the Santa Ana river under-ground water basin. The bill, sponsored by Sen. John Murdy of Huntington Beach and due out of committee March 23, provides for the inclusion of seven districts and the cities of Anaheim, Fullerton and Santa Ana in the district, each unit to have one vote on the board of directors. An ad valorem tax of 8 cents is proposed to defray administrative and legal expenses of the district and to provide for the anticipated purchase of Colorado river water for two years for replenishment of the basin. The water purchase, necessary to hold salt water intrusion through the Santa Ana river gap and to bring up the water table, would be limited to 25,000 acre-feet of water per year.

Divisions include a daughter, Madeline Bolton, Los Anchorage sons, Gerald of Berkering of Santa Barbara and of Salt Lake City; six children and six greatchildren. Robert Burns McAulay, pas-First Presbyterian church, officiated at the services An ad valorem tax of 8 cents is proposed to defray administrative and legal expenses of the district and to provide for the anticipated purchase of Colorado river water for two years for replenishment of the basin. The water purchase, necessary to hold salt water intrusion through the Santa Ana river gap and to bring up the water table, would be limited to 25,000 acre-feet of water per year. After the first two years, it is proposed that wells drawing water from the basin will be metered and users will pay for water so withdrawn. Fees from the well metering would then be used for purchase of Colorado river water, freeing the tax funds for use by the district. The bill also provides that no cash excess may be carried forward from year to year. Water Amendments Approved by Farm Bureau Board Directors of the Orange county Farm bureau have officially put their organization on record as approving the amendments to the Orange county water district act now before the state legislature and agreeing to work actively for adoption of senate bill' 91. The action was taken at the regular meeting of the representatives of the big farm organization after spending several hours in discussion of the proposal and its many provisions. Water Situation Serious Much information must be given to the general public before they can realize the seriousness of the water supply situation in the basin and the unavoidable fact that much money must be spent before the present overdraft can be offset and a program of correction of the accumulated overdraft can be carried out, according to farm bureau officials. Discussion included the information that the current estimated annual overdraft on the Santa Ana river water basin includes most of Orange county is 67,000 acre feet; and that the estimated accumulated overdraft is 650,000 acre feet, but that replenishment of 375,000 acre feet would bring the water up to a "safe level." The seriousness of the lowered water level is seen in the fact that a great share of the wells in the county and practically all wells in the lower basin area have been pumping from below sea level.

New Areas Seeking to Join MWD to Pay Annexation Fee Territory seeking annexation to Metropolitan Water District after March 1, 1954, will be charged an annexation fee in addition to the usual sharing of bonded debt and payment of back interest and taxes, it was disclosed at Monday's meeting of the Orange County Municipal Water District directors. Notice of the change in annexation policy by MWD was received by the directors at their monthly session in Placentia city hall. President Glenn P. Allen of Orange, who also represents the municipal water district on the MWD board, said that the basis of levying the annexation charge has not yet been determined. It may be on an acreage basis or otherwise, he said. The new policy will apply not only to areas seeking admission to MWD as separate units, but also to territory annexed to districts already belonging to MWD, Allen stated. Southern Area Effected It would apply to the San Juan Capistrano - San Clemente areas which has recently been considering annexation to the Orange county municipal water district, unless such annexation should be completed by next March 1, it was stated. President Allen explained that the change of policy was decided in view of the prospect that many new areas will be seeking annexation to MWD in order to get outside water, and some of these will be areas of high water use but low assessed valuation. Thus the share of bonded debt, back taxes and interest assumed by such districts would not be proportionate to that assumed by areas of higher valuation. The annexation charge is designed to equalize annexation costs. The secretary was instructed to notify the south county group of the new MWD policy. Non-Contiguous Question Another annexation question before the municipal water district board Monday was whether territory annexed to an existing MWD unit, when not configured to such unit, and not benefited by the improvements financed by bonds of the existing MWD unit, should be required to assume a share of the bonded debt. The question was laid before the board by officials of the eastern municipal water district at Hemet, and is said to refer particularly to the area of Elsinore, which is not contiguous to the eastern district and would not benefit from the eastern's improvements. Elsinore, which wants annexation to the eastern district, would have to vote its own bonds for his water lines, and feels that it should not be required to assume a part of the bonded debt of eastern district. Legislation amending the municipal water district act to permit such annexations is proposed. No Official Comment The eastern district officials wanted to know whether the Orange county district board would favor such legislation. Again, with Difficulty, Focus on Kersten Property A physician, neatly placed Anaheim city council on the night, Dr. Kersten owns the large parcel of land at the LaPalma ave. on which the Clyde Beatty circus has its Dr. Kersten would, he said, like to rent it out again take care of the taxes on it.

Legislation amending the municipal water district act to permit such annexations is proposed. No Official Comment The eastern district officials wanted to know whether the Orange county district board would favor such legislation. While privately expressing their opinions that the legislation appears reasonable, the Orange county directors declined to take an official position "at this time." Similarly, the board decided not to take official action in support of the bill to amend the water district act. Municipal Court Salary Increases Get Supers' OK Sweeping salary increases from top to bottom of the two municipal court staffs in Orange county are recommended to the state legislature in a salary bill proposed by the county superintendent. The new schedule proposed would increase the salaries of Judge John Shea of Anaheim Fullerton court and Judge Howard Cameron of Santa Ana-Orange court from $9000 to $10,000.

Daily Living for Peace of Mind Editor's note This is one of a series of daily articles by Anaheim ministers and is published by the Gazette in the interest of the kind of daily living that leads to contentment and happiness in troubled times. Tempest in a Teapot by Pastor Bob Kevorkian First Baptist Church "Did I ever tell him off! I really gave him a piece of my mind. From now on he will certainly know where he stands with me. What a relief!" "Wait a minute! Don't be so conclusive! What have you accomplished?" "Accomplished? What do you mean?" "Exactly what I said. Have you gained anything by blowing your top, either for yourself or for others?" "You bet I have! It sure made me feel good. Why I've had it in my mind to tell him off for some time now." "Just a moment! Sincerely now, did you tell him off because he had it coming or was it because you were really dissatisfied with something in your own life and so you took it out on him? All you did was falsely satisfy your own ego, which really is the basis of your difficulty. You were a picture of gross weakness while your temperature was rising. Besides, if he was such a rascal, which was more important, winning him over so he could see his own error, or "blowing your top" in an endeavor to show your tremendous superiority? Besides, what makes you think you are so superior anyway? In fact from the description of your violent blast I would tend to think that he is even stronger than you are." James, the writer in the New Testament has said, "We all make mistakes in all kinds of ways, but the man who can claim that he never says the wrong thing can consider himself perfect; for if he can control his tongue he can control every part of his personality!"
