Salvation Army Asks for Discarded School Clothing to Fill Requests
The Salvation Army Social Service Center which serves this area is being deluged with requests daily for all kinds of suitable clothing for children this week as they return to school.
Brigadier Ranson D. Gifford, manager of the center is appealing to local residents to contribute clothing their children have outgrown to help the center fill the needs of less fortunate families.
Clothing will immediately be processed in workshops of the Social Service Center and readied for use by families in the lower income brackets.
"A gift of salvage does three things," the Salvation Army leader said. "It provides an occupational therapy program for many handicapped persons at the center, it provides food and shelter, and it enables a family to buy clothing for the children at very low cost."
Brigadier Gifford pointed out that the Salvation Army is strictly a non-profit organization. He said that all revenue from sale of the reconditioned items, above actual operating costs, is returned in the form of cash grants to homeless and handicapped persons who go to the center seeking aid.
In order to continue its social rehabilitation program, the center also needs a continuous inflow of men's and women's clothing, furniture, shoes, dishes, mattresses, bedding, kitchen utensils, home appliances, silverware, stoves, toys, radios, bicycles, tricycles, bric-a-brac, etc., Brigadier Gifford said. A phone call to the local Salvation Army call station, 4631, will bring a Red Shield truck to home or office.

What would happen after you struck oil?
This? Anyone who's ever owned a piece of property has day-dreamed about striking oil. It could happen—and if it did, what next? Do you go shopping for yachts? Not if you want to develop your well into an oil field by yourself. You'd have to stake your commodore's hat and plenty more to build up a producing field. It's a tough and risky job even for Standard Oil Company of California. Only one wildcat well out of every 44 ever develops into a commercial oil field...and the cost of finding out can run into millions of dollars. Standard is able to do this because it is owned by more than 115,000 shareholders, each of whom bears part of the cost. Both small and large companies are essential to the oil business, but companies like Standard bring together the money, manpower and skill required to find and build up a big oil field. In developing one field Standard invested years of time and millions of dollars in drilling, production, construction, maintenance teams—and the work is still going on. Indeed, your dream-well could lead to a yacht...
But first, here's part of the bill for bringing an oil field into production. It's a good example of how a big oil company works for you. Over the years, Standard has invested in more than 200 such fields to bring you the oil you need. Questions or comments about our Company are welcome. Write: Standard Oil Company of California, P.O. Box 3495-D, San Francisco, California.

Cal-Vet Home Financing Rises 17 Per Cent During Previous Year
During the last fiscal year the number of California veterans financing homes through the state's "CalVet" program rose 17 per cent, reported D. J. Callaghan, Jr., State Director of Veterans Affairs.
In the annual period ending last June 30, 9323 California veterans of two world wars and the Korean conflict took advantage of the low-interest financing plan in order to become home owners he said.
A total of 40,256 veterans in 56 of California's 58 counties were financing their homes under the low-interest Cal-Vet plan at the end of the fiscal year. An increase in Cal-Vet properties was noted in nearly every county.
In Orange county, 1356 veterans were purchasing homes through the Department of Veterans Affairs as of last June 80. Last year the comparable figure was 1026.
The annual count of home purchases by the State Department of Veterans Affairs reveals a net increase of 5941 active contracts over the previous year's total of 34,315. During the year, many home contracts were paid in full.
Total contract price on the homes was listed at $288,002,473. This is the amount invested by the State, out of funds received from the sale of California Veterans Bonds. Callaghan said the figure represented a rise of $52,707,742 over the total value of active CalVet homes listed by the Department a year earlier.
Payments cover both the cost of the bonds and administrative expenses.
The above figures do not represent the entire activity of the farm and home purchase program, since farms are being tabulated separately.
Eligible under the plan are honorably discharged veterans with 90 days' active wartime service who were born in California or entered military service as California residents.
More than 67,000 veterans have purchased properties through the state plan since it was established in 1921. Some 24,000 of these have paid off their contracts in full.
Veterans repay the state in monthly installments at an interest rate which has been set at three per cent since 1946.
The state may advance on behalf of a veteran the sum of $8,500 to purchase a home, or $15,000 to purchase a farm. New legislation provides that on or after Sept. 9, 1953, the value of any home to be financed may not exceed $12,500, and the value of a farm may not exceed $18,500.
These maximum values are being increased from $11,500 and $16,500 respectively. The amount the Department can advance for purchases is not being increased.
