To rephrase a sturdy old household saying, it seems that in the arena of national politics, "hell hath no fury like a farmer scorned." And it seems that the fledgling Republican administration, after two decades outside the pasture, has forgotten the political potency of the tillers of the soil. In the current uproar about cattle prices, it is interesting to observe the actions of the various senators. Those from the great agricultural states are definitely on the spot. A few have had the courage publicly to voice their views. Others have not. Some of them merely choose to take the easy way out by sitting patly on their big, fat convictions. This can be dangerous. The farmers will speak at the polls next spring. Farmers know that the welfare of the country springs from their fields and pastures. They realize that they are the most powerful group in the country when organized, even outstripping the soft- Jaycees Hear Talk by Bank Manager Jordan "Junior Chamber of Commerce is the training ground for Anaheim's civic and business leaders of the future," Barney Jordan, manager of the local branch of Security-First Nationall bank, told members of the Anahelm Jaycee at their meeting last week. Jordan, an officer and board member of Kansas City and Los Angeles Junior Chambers for 12 years, stated that few young men's organizations give its members the leadership training, pulse, confidence and business management experience that the Jaycee offers. He said close co-operation between the Jaycee and the Anahelm Chamber of Commerce is vital. Membership pins were presented to new members Luis Sandoval, Cliff Miller and Ted Fishback by State Director Bob Heinz and Lee Fellows. In the absence of President Glen Casto, Vice-president Bud Harris presided. Breakfast to Delay Mail Delivery If your mail is late next Saturday, there's a reason! Special permission was granted by the Post Office Department in Washington for the local mail carriers to delay departures on their delivery routes so they can attend the Hallow'e en Breakfast in a boly. So instead of leaving on their routes at the customary 8:00 a.m., they won't start until 10 a.m., according to Louis H. Hoskins, local postmaster. Jaycees Plead for Breakfast Helpers Serving breakfast to 20 hungry, costumed Halloween revelers is a man - sized tail according to Clyre Carter, Junior Chamber of Commerce chairman in charge of serving, and the local Jaycees need some help. Carter issued an invitation former Jaycees and those who have left the organization after reaching the 35-year age limit to assist the club with the serving. The servers will meet at the breakfast platform in City Park at 8 a.m. to begin serving at a.m. Volunteers are asked call Carter at Anaheim 5253. Kiddie Paraders To Win Awards For Costumes Twenty-eight awards will go to students of each of the 15 schools which will enter costumed marches in the Hallowe'en Kiddies Parade tomorrow afternoon. It will be announced today by Paul Cook chairman of the event. Several hundred kiddies will appear in the parade which will begin at Emily and Center streets at 2 p.m., and move up Center Clementine where the parade will turn to Anaheim City Park. Judging will be on the basis of the following costume themes: Most beautiful costumes, most original costumes, most comic costumes, best twin costumes, best "float" entry, best bike outfit, and 10 special awards per school for costumes with an "Out of The World" motif. "Out of This World" is the ultra-modernistic theme of the 30th Annual Anaheim Hallowe'en Festival. The parade will be disbanded at the City Park where treats will be passed out to the participants. Some of them merely choose to take the easy way out by sitting patly on their big, fat convictions. This can be dangerous. The farmers will speak at the polls next spring. Farmers know that the welfare of the country springs from their fields and pastures. They realize that they are the most powerful group in the country when organized, even outstripping the soft-coal miners, yet. Although there is no actual recorded incident of a cattle raiser (especially one from the great state of Taixus) ever starving to death, the recent cattlemen's stampede on Washington brings into startling relief the unrest, the suspicion, even the fear with which 'the farmer views present high level domestic policies. It is paradoxical, too, to look back on certain declarations dramatized by the farmers of, say, that great state of Taixus before the last election when they demanded that the federal government "git out" of local affairs. But 'twarn't too long after that until a delegation headed for Washington demanding funds for drought relief. And now they demand much more vociferously that the feds prop up the prices that they will get for their meat. This they called creeping socialism before the last election. The farmer, (in which term we naturally lump the raiser of hogs, cattle, chickens, rabbits, wheat, corn, tobacco, cotton, and all raw consumer items) can at once be the most independent cuss on the face of the earth, and the most dependent. Recent events have underscored my point. But it was not too long ago that they asked for a change. And, by gad, they got it sooner than they expected. They were getting (Continued on Page 2) Special permission was granted by the Post Office Department in Washington for the local mail carriers to delay departures on their delivery routes so they can attend the Hallow'e en Breakfast in a boly.
