OBLONG VIEWS (From an Egg-Shaped Head) By WALDO HUNTER, P.S.B. Another Glorious Fourth has passed into history, and some 600 Americans over the nation enjoyed violent deaths in the process. Well, that's one way to gain real independence on Independence Day. Display of the United States flag was (as usual) pretty lax around the county. We drove down the main drag of one important Northern Orange county municipality on Sunday and saw no flags, or bunting., or anything even remotely suggesting a patriotic holiday. Here and there, in the residential district, a lone householder had guts enough to fly a flag on his porch or lawn, but by and large, outward community evidence of symbolic Americanism was totally lacking. What a wonderful boost it would be to tottering morale here at home, and what a jolt it would give to the commies abroad, if every American home would display the country's flag on national holidays! The only place we saw what could be termed an impressive display of the National Emblem in this particular city was in front of a fireworks stand on a street somewhat removed from the town's main drag. It was a big flag, and behind it was a going concern doing a flourishing business in the sale of those horribly over-priced and pitifully impotent incendiary 82 YEARS OF DEVOTION ANAHEIM Broadway St Shopping De Retired Bishop Comes to Anaheim The members of St. Michael's parish are rejoicing in a very important addition to their parish family. The Right Reverend and Mrs. Thomas Jenkins, the retired Bishop of Nevada, and his wife, have purchased the old rectory next door to the church, and will make their permanent home in Anaheim. Senator Kuchel Protect State's California Senator Thomas Kuchel, declaring confidence opinions among members of Western States should not heightened by "recrimination" day began battling to protect California claims to Colorado water as the Senate Interim Insular Affairs Committee thorize a proposed $1,100,000 project involving several and power plants to supply to upper basin states. After the first two advances of the Upper Basin Development Plan took sharp jabs at California, Kuchel made plain he intends to fight for provisions in the legislation that will safeguard fornia interests and assure The only place we saw what could be termed an impressive display of the National Emblem in this particular city was in front of a fireworks stand on a street somewhat removed from the town's main drag. It was a big flag, and behind it was a going concern doing a flourishing business in the sale of those horribly over-priced and pitifully impotent incendiary gadgets palmed off onto a gullible public as fireworks. The vendors were members of a patriotic veterans organization, in effect using the Flag of the United States as a shill to get people into the stall to shell out their hard-earned cash for stuff which, at the touch of a match, supplied all the incandescence of an old and anemic glow worm which has just been run over by a GMC pickup truck. This is patriotic? And furthermore, those patriotic pieces of flimsy which we burned on our lawns on the Glorious Fourth were made in Japan at slave-labor wages (less than a dollar per day). They weren't manufactured in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. And plenty of super patriotic middlemen here made a lot of dough off them. By the rocket's red glare, so to speak. Yes, we can be pretty patriotic if there is a buck or two in it for us. Seems to me that there should be a little more emphasis on that almost-forgotten old slogan "made in America" when we purchase stuff in the stores and stalls. This should hold true in the case of refrigerators, automobiles, safety razors, canned beans, fishing rods, flower pots, or even Marilyn Monroe. It is acknowledged, then, that there is a definite apathy in this country toward display of the Flag as an outward manifestation of inward respect and pride for Country. Nobody will gainsay this, for it is evident on every national holiday. Some sincere persons, either because of religious or other convictions, are revolted at the thought of paying homage to an earthly symbol, be it a piece of cloth or a carved image. This philosophy most of us can stomach, but in the case of our Flag, it seems to be different. RT. REV. THOMAS JENKINS Following his retirement, Bishop Jenkins lived for several years in Port Orford, on the Southern Oregon Coast, where in his spare time he opened three missions in different parts of Curry County. Before his election as Bishop of Nevada, Bishop Jenkins served as missionary priest in Alaska, then later as rector, St. David's, Portland, and was general Missionary and Educational secretary of the Diocese of Oregon. In 1928 he was elected Bishop of Nevada, and served there until his retirement. During his ministry, Bishop Jenkins was delegate six times to the General Convention of the church, in addition to his constant membership after becoming Bishop. He was a member of the Pan-Anglican Congress in 1905, which is being held again this summer in Minneapolis. In both 1930 and 1948, he was a member of the Lambeth Conference of Bishops, meeting in London. He is the author of "The Man of Alaska," the life of Bishop Rowe, and the History of the Church in Nevada. Bishop Jenkins will assist the Rector of St. Michael's, the Rev. John Kimball Saville in the church services, the Church School, and other parish activities. This Sunday, July 11, he will address the congregation at the water as the Senate Interior Insular Affairs Committee ed hearings on legislation that thorize a proposed $1,100,000 project involving several land and power plants to supply water to upper basin states. After the first two advents of the Upper Basin Development Plan took-sharp jabs at California, Kuchel made plain he intends to fight for provisions in the isolation that will safeguard fornia interests and assure security of water for which convoys have been made with the Federal Government. In pointed questioning, the iffofnian drew from Interior dersecretary Ralph A. Tudor violously a San Francisco area resulting Engineer, admission to the Colorado River Compact pledged by the Boulderyon project (Swing-Johnson) and United States-Mexico T政府 govern the way resources on River can be developed. Asked directly by Kuchel whether interpretations of 1922 Seven-State Pact would an effect on the proposed Basin Plan, Tudor said the interior Department believes the isolation has been framed "with the confines" of the agreement Later, when Kuchel noted that complications legal issues are pending in the Supreme Court controversy between Arizona California the Interior U secretary state that in event Highest Tribunal "holds agility on which the Department is proceeding" Interior officials "would certainly have comply." Kuchel said he confident that if the Supreme Court determines legal right California are being interested with the Interior Department "would not want to proceed" The Upper Basin Development basis now contemplated. Kuchel indicated he may give signs he may challenge economic feasibility of the program, which has been attacked as involving a Federal subsidy. He requested tallied cost figures for the pro- Flag as an outward manifestation of inward respect and pride for Country. Nobody will gainsay this, for it is evident on every national holiday. Some sincere persons, either because of religious or other convictions, are revolted at the thought of paying homage to an earthly symbol, be it a piece of cloth or a carved image. This philosophy most of us can stomach, but in the case of our Flag, it seems to be different. This Flag symbolizes a system of government which gives those people the right to worship anything they care to, in any way they see fit, so long as they do not violate the common bounds of decency. Verily, a display of the National Colors here on earth will not cause their slumbers in the hereafter to be disturbed. I have given serious thought to this apparent aversion to the display of the Flag, and have at last concluded that it is a subtle revolt against those self-appointed custodians of patriotism such as the McCarthys and the members of the Book Watchers Society (of which we have a vigilant little cell right here in Anaheim). These sincere but misguided souls take it upon themselves to cram their brand of patriotism down the throats of good people whose love of country burns deep and who need no prodding despite the fact that they might once in a while take a peek at such foul and abominable publications as "The Nation" or "New Statesman." "A pox on you," these super-duper patriots piously declare, "Either you read the Wall Street Journal or else we will damn and villify and besmirch you right out of the community." This is patriotism? I will read anything I please, whether it be "Mein Kampf", "Das Kapital", the Christian Science Monitor, the Holy Writ, or Dr. Morgan's Iron Mountain Nerve Tonic Almanac. Why, I might even read the Santa Ana Cash Register. And I will be one of those lone individuals not afraid to fly the Flag. And any mealy-mouthed super-patriot who slithers up to me to tell me I shouldn't read this or that, or see this or that movie, or talk like this or that, can just plain go to . . . well, he can go to the beach! 1930 and 1948, he was a member of the Lambeth Conference of Bishops, meeting in London. He is the author of "The Man of Alaska," the life of Bishop Rowe, and the History of the Church in Nevada. Bishop Jenkins will assist the Rector of St. Michael's, the Rev. John Kimball Saville in the church services, the Church School, and other parish activities.

During the Rector's vacation from August 9 to September 9, he will conduct the church services and be in charge of the parish. Mrs. Jenkins was formerly active in missionary work in the West, and beginning August the first will be the Rector's secretary. This Sunday at the 9:15 Family Service, the colored slide pictures will be on "The Boyhood of Jesus." At the 10:30 a.m., service of Morning Prayer, the Rector's sermon topic will be, "The Need of This Troubled World." An offertory solo will be sung by Mr. Rolla Taylor.

In pointed questioning, the Californian drew from Interior Undersecretary Ralph A. Tudor, presumably a San Francisco area Convening Engineer, admissions that Colorado River Compact, supplemented by the Boulder Canal project (Swing-Johnson) Act, United States-Mexico Treaty, govern the way resources of the river can be developed. Kuchel directly by Kuchel neither interpretations of the 1927 Seven-State Pact would have effect on the proposed Upper Basin Plan, Tudor said the Interior Department believes the legislation has been framed "within confines" of the agreement when Kuchel noted important pending in the Supreme Court controversy between Arizona and California the Interior Undersecretary states that in event the highest Tribunal "holds against theory on which the Department is proceeding" Interior officials "would certainly have to imply." Kuchel said he was confident that if the Supreme Court determines legal rights of California are being interfered with the Interior Department would not want to proceed" with Upper Basin Development on basis now contemplated.

Automatic Sprinkler Control Developed The Moist O' Matic Corporation, Riverside, Calif., has perfected a device for automatic watering, and is marketing it through Home Engineering Co., 913 N. Los Angeles Street, Anaheim. Called a Hydrostat, the device measures the moisture content of the soil and automatically turns sprinklers on and off. The Hydrostat can be tied in with existing sprinkler systems, or with new systems at a cost only slightly above what a manually operated layout would cost. Tom part of the Hydrostat is a porcelain cup to which is attached a molded body and a brass plate that contains a vacuum actuated valve and two control knobs. To start operation of the Hydrostat, the cup is inserted into the soil; it is then filled with water. When soil, in contact with the cup, begins to dry out, a suction develops in the soil that pulls the water out of the cup, causing a vacuum within. This vacuum causes a diaphragm operated valve to open and turn To request a change of property listing, representatives of Broadway, Coldwell, Banker & Co., and Belton Becket, A.I.A. and Associates, project architects, will meet tomorrow to review plans, elevations and other data pertaining to the development, with members of the Anaheim city council andanning commission.
