Annual Fuchsia Show Slated June 26, 27, 28 at Knott’s Berry Farm Kenneth W. Terry, president of the National Fuchsia Society of America, Inc., has just announced that the sixth annual fuchsia show is to be held June 26, 27 and Sunday, the 28 in the park at the north end of Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park. Entrance to the show is on La Palma, one block west of Highway 39 in Buena Park. Admission to the show will be 25c. Children under twelve years of age will be admitted free. Under the branches of huge eucalyptus trees that lend their beauty and shade as nature’s roof and disguise the necessary net covering, the outdoor show area is fenced with hand-split redwood palings that add to the rustic picture and make desirable background as well. Plans this year propose a showing of fuchsias that will be one of the outstanding exhibitions in Southern California. Booth arrangements by branch societies will vie with one another to display originality in design—here the fuchsia will reign supreme with the addition of shade plants to glorify the colorful and versatile fuchsia. Baskets, trees, espaliers and pots, all enhanced by cool accents of ferns and begonias and exotic shade plants, thus to reflect the perfection and grouping of combinations and contrasts that add interest and beauty to the garden. Cut flowers, dish gardens, planters, corsages and a variety of arrangements will have additional show space. Junior entries will have a section for their exhibits to encourage our many ardent young gardeners. The best flower arrangement and juvenile entry will receive a gold cup as a special award. The Fairclo trophy will go to the best booth entered by a branch Fuchsia society. Individual Fuchsia entries are fostered by the award of the President’s Cup. A new cup is to appear this year being presented by the South Gate branch in memory of Rawley A. Gish and will go to the branch Fuchsia society winning second best booth entry. As always, garden clubs, amateur and professional growers will have exhibit sections for their use and will add much to the variety of the show. Prize ribbons will be awarded in first, second and third best of entries with a group of capable and qualified judges making the final decision. Entries are open to those interested in flowers and the show schedule will have over a hundred separate classifications.

LOS ANGELES ST.—ANAHEIM—PHONE 2012 "A GOOD DEAL AND A G Vacation Jobs for Youngsters Possible Under Federal Statutes Reports that Federal Labor Laws prevent children getting summer vacation jobs are not entirely true, according to Charles H. Elrey, who represents the U.S. Department of labor's wage and hour and public contracts divisions in Southern California. The two principal federal labor laws with child labor provisions, he said, are the fair labor standards act (federal wage and hour law) and the Walsh-Heiley Contracts Act. "The restrictions against use of oppressive child labor are written into the laws to protect the lives of our youngsters and to safeguard their health and well-being," Elrey said. The Walsh-Heiley act, he pointed out, bans work on Government contracts in excess of $10,000. The restriction in the federal wage and hour law on the employment of children under 16 in agriculture during the hours when school in the district is in session do not apply to agricultural employment during vacation periods, he said. Establishments engaged in interstate or foreign commerce, or in the production of goods for such commerce, are subject to the child labor provisions of the federal wage and hour law, he added. Elrey pointed out that children must be at least 16 to work in manufacturing or processing occupations, in public messenger service and in occupations in rooms or work places where goods and only between 7 a.m., and 7 p.m., he added. Children under 18 years old can not work in occupations covered by the hazardous occupations orders issued under the federal wage and hour law, he stressed. The orders cover such occupations as driver or helper on motor vehicle, certain jobs in logging, sawmills, mines, plants making or storing explosives; slaughtering, meat-packing or rendering plants; jobs involving exposure to radioactive substances, and jobs operating power-driven wood-workings, metal forming, punching or shearing machines, elevators, hoisting apparatus, cranes, derricks, high-lift trucks and bakery machinings, he said. "Employers can protect themselves from inadvertent violations by having on file age certificates or work permits for all workers under 19 years old, because such certificates are considered as proof of age under federal and state laws," he added. "Young workers should also find out about the legal minimum ages and other conditions of employment set by the state child labor laws. If the state laws have higher age limits and set higher standards than federal laws, then the higher standards will prevail." "And when you take a summertime job, be sure it is safe, be sure you are old enough under the law to work in the job, and be sure you resume your education in your classrooms at the end of the summertime job," he said. Washington By Congressman Just in case some of you may be wondering what a day of congressman is like, here is my schedule for a recent day: Our California Republican delegation had a breakfast conference with the department of Veterans of Foreign Wars in an effort to work out a legislative program which would improve the efficiency of the veterans administration. This meeting started at 7:30 a.m. At 10 o'clock our committee or ways and means continued hearings on the extension of reciprocal trade agreements until 12:30 and reconvened at 1 p.m. During that time the house of representatives was in session, considering the senate version of the tideland bill. It is the equivalent of about three blocks distance between the committee meeting room and the floor of congress. My time was divided between the house floor and the committee hearing which continued until 5:30. During that time, I responded to three roll calls in the house or the final passage of the tideland bill and others. In between time I took some of my constituents from Orange county up to the gallery and also worked in a conference with Congressman Phillips, Supervisor Warner of Orange county, and Engineer Jack Woolly on the Sea Beach erosion problem. I also are ranged appointments for them with the bureau of yards and docks. At 6 o'clock I went to a dinner meeting of the New Republics of the 83rd congress at which Vice President Dwight Eisenhower presented his paper-mache float which SEE THE GREAT TREAK PONTIAC!

Rural Traffic Deaths Higher During April SACRAMENTO — Rural traffic deaths took a discouraging leap upward last month, the California Highway Patrol reported today. The April toll was 201 an increase of more than 30 per cent over April 1952 when 153 person died in rural mishaps. Patrol Commissioner B. R. Coldwell said the sharp rise in rural fatalities makes the warning that speed kills more urgent than ever. He linked high speeds directly to the growing death toll. Caldwell pointed out that the striking force of a vehicle is quadrupled every time the speed is doubled. Thus, a car hitting a solid object with a force of 25,000 pounds at 30 miles per hour would hit with a force of 100,000 pounds at 60 miles per hour. The chances of being killed is an accident and the distance necessary to stop a car multiply correspondingly, he said. Commissioner Caldwell said he was up to each individual motorist to determine his own "safe" speed; a speed at which he honestly feels he would have complete control over his car in case of an emergency. "Those who consistently drive at speeds greater than 60 and get away with it aren't being honest with themselves," he said. "They have just been lucky—so far."

Thus,there will be spent about 4 billiondollars more in fiscal '54 than therevenues for the same year. Itis not generally realized that thisadministration inherited over a 50billion dollar deficit in appropriated and committed funds,which has not been expended. This amount is actually in addition to our present national debt,although not considered as suchuntil it is expended. From thisyou will see that this overall debt of the U.S. will actually be reduced by three billion dollars infiscal 1954. Not only has the first120 days of the Eisenhower administration brought appropriations within revenues; it has in fact reduced the federal debt.

Willis Warner,who lives in HuntingtonBeach but is equally well knownin Santa Ana, accompanied JackWoolly. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Slemonsfrom the Newport area also arrived for a visit.

Icing conditions are dangerous to airplanes; first because ice formed from the air on a plane adds to its weight and second because such ice deforms the surfaces of the wings and reduces their efficiency.
