Turkish Students a Praise Ike's Trip to When President Eisenhower and Turkish President Celal Bayer exchanged greetings during Ike's historic trip, the most avid readers on the Santa Ana College campus were the seven Turkish students who are studying here before returning to their homeland. As an assistant to their American associates, the Turks collected newspaper clippings, photographs, and appropriate quotations from the two presidents to form an exhibit in the campus library foyer. The documentary exhibit attracted great attention. Statement With Exhibit Centering the exhibit was a statement, reading in part: "We, the Turkish foreign students of Santa Ana College, due to the outcome of President Eisenhower's historical visit to our homeland, Turkey, would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude for the leaders of both countries. President Eisenhower and President Celal Bayer, for their effort in bringing the two countries closer. "We are also proud of our fellow Turks back in our homeland for their most spectacular and enthusiastic welcome for the President, the welcome that was never shown to any foreign visitor before. "At this point we share the sorrow of not being present in our homeland to cheer the President as he rolled towards the city..."

An Anaheim resident since 1906, Mr. Dwyer was born in Willimantic, Conn., and had been highly active in the civic life of this city. He was vitally interested in Orange County water problems, serving on committees for better water supplies for many years. He was a director of the Anaheim Citrus Association, member of the Anaheim Union Water Co., served as mayor in the trying years around 1927, and was conciliation commissioner for Orange County during the depression. Amolg his many contributions was the gift to the Red Cross of his permanent home on West St., and ground adjacent to the Mother Colony House. He was a prominent member of the Orange County Republican Party. Surviving are his widow, Mrs. Lera Dwyer; nephews Phillip Dwyer, Willmantle, Conn., and Harold Meaney, Tonawande, N.Y., and a niece, Mrs. Claire Kinney, Mansfield Center, Conn.

Gains are reported during the first 11 months by eight other counties. Riverside and Santa Barbara showed gains exceeding $28 million, Ventura increased $22 million, Kings was up $13.2, Fresno $10.5, San Bernardino $9.8 million, San Luis Olbspo, $7 million, and Tulare $4.8 million. Three counties showing a drop from last year are Kern down $3.7 million, Imperial off $916,422, and Inyo off by $267,636. Total building for the 14 counties in November was $240,943,-000 compared to $201,100,000 for November a year ago. Athers Report Gains These figures, in addition to building permits, include construction of highways, schools, government buildings and engineering which do not require permits. In addition to Anaheim, several other Orange County cities reported large increases in building activity. Garden Grove had its largest month of building activity, with $8.25 million worth of permits issued, highest in that city's history. This figure boosted the 11-month total to more than $45 million, compared to last year's comparative period of $27.7 mil- Metro District (Continued from Page 1) is census year. The reports may be given before the year is over. This census may tell a different story—a story favoring Orange County. It's all right to say let's get our foot in the door. But remember—the foot may get jammed in there." Santa Ana Mayor Al Hall remarked: "I can't figure out why Los Angeles should go along for so many years and then all of a sudden want to include Orange County. I feel joining up might eliminate us from our own designation forever. It just doesn't quite fit—joining two cities and one county in my estimation." Hall also brought out the advisability of waiting until after the 1960 nationwide census. George Welmer, Orange city administrator, admittedly is in a quandary. "All of a sudden Los Angeles County wants to take us in," Welmer commented. "Now I don't know what the motive is and I think it deserves a lot of study. I believe the Orange County Council will want a lot more facts and figures before it says one way or the other." Bill Gallienne, manager of the Huntington Beach Chamber of Commerce, may have had at least a partial answer to Welmer. He explained Los Angeles is fighting tooth and toe nail to hold the No. 2 metropolitan rating against fast-closing Chicago, which has been gobbling up Cook County. "Perhaps their salvation is tak-ng gi niOrange County, Gallienne In addition to Anaheim, several other Orange County cities reported large increases in building activity. Garden Grove had its largest month of building activity, with $8.25 million worth of permits issued, highest in that city's history. This figure boosted the 11-month total to more than $45 million, compared to last year's comparative period of $27.7 million. Buena Park continued its rapid construction pace, with permits in November valued at more than $2 million. Of the total 139 single-family dwelling permits worth $1.7 million were issued. The City of Orange has more than $1 million worth of construction for the seventh month, boosting the record for the year to a new high of $13.8 million, double the amount for last year dudring the same period. Combined population of Orange and Los Angeles County will be 6,680,000, according to a prediction by the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, some 800,000 more than Cook County, Illinois, which includes the City of Chicago. Los Angeles, the chamber reports, will have 6,000,000 population by Jan. 1, and Orange County 680,000. Auto Registration Will Begin Jan. 4 Vehicle registration renewal service for 1960 will be available to motorists of the Anaheim area in the Bank of America, Anaheim Branch, at 150 E. Center St. between Jan. 4 and Feb. 4. Richard W. Gay, vice president and manager of the bank, announces. The stations in 145 banks throughout the state are authorized to issue 1960 registration cards and rear plate renewal stickers only when car, truck or trailer owners submit their fees with the punched card statements mailed from Sacramento during December. Majority of Bill Gallienne, manager of the Huntington Beach Chamber of Commerce, may have had at least a partial answer to Weimer. He explained Los Angeles is fighting tooth and toe nail to hold the No. 2 metropolitan rating against fast-closing Chicago, which has been gobbling up Cook County. "Perhaps their salvation is taken gi niOrange County, Gallienne asserted. 'They've even toyed with the idea of grabbing San Diego. I'm not so sure we didn't weaken our position by favoring the merger. (He was referring to the supervisors' action). I have strong feeling if we had fought hard enough we could have obtained a separate metropolitan classification." People close to the picture apparently feel its thing to do. To get our foot in the door, so to speak. It probably wouldn't hurt us." Fullerton on Fence Bill Richards, Garden Grove city administrator, explained the triple designation might aid in luring industry to Orange County. He pointed particularly to the lowering of telephone rates, which is a major factor in industry's consideration of an area. Mayor Howard Cornwell of Fullerton says he wants to know more about it before taking a solid stand. The Fullerton City Council has discussed the proposal informally. On what he knows now, however, Cornwell said: "I don't think I'll be in favor of going in with Los Angeles." There have been many cases where strike action has tied up Los Angeles." Pearson said, "but the same union in Orange County failed to join the strike. If we joined up with Los Angeles this situation might be reversed." Another mayor, George Menhardt of Westminister indicated he was receptive to joining areas, but expressed concern that it should be identified as the Los Angeles-Orange County Metropolitan area. Menhardt said he was not in favor of two cities dominating an entire county as the case would be in such a move. Adult Education Classes Open Jan. 4 Santa Ana Adult Education classes will open Monday, Jan. 4, for the winter term ending March 18, it is announced by Otis Knighton, director.
