"Water Bonds Good News By ROBERT J. AIKINS The water bond act is the sound way to pay for the state's badly-needed water projects without giving the general taxpayers more aches and pains, says Assemblyman Carley Porter. Under terms of the bond act, those who benefit from the projects will pay the costs. In other words—if you don't benefit, you don't pay, Porter explains. Carley Porter is one man who should know what the water bond act will do. He co-sponsored the measure when it was approved by Orange County Legion Society To Fete Circus Orange County Volture 527, 40 and 8. Society, Orange County's Honorary Society of the American Legion, will present the Ken Jen森 Circus at the Orange County legislature in 1959. Before it can put the state water program in high gear it must be okayed by the voters of California on Nov. 8. It will appear on the election ballot as Proposition Number One. In explaining what he terms the critical need for citizen-approval of the water bond act, Porter says: "California's water problem is really a money problem. We have plenty of water in the state to meet all our needs for a long time. But we don't have enough money to build the projects to move this water from where it's wasted to where it's needed. The water bond act will provide this money without raising taxes." In simple terms, he says, the water bond act authorizes the state to sell up to $1% billion worth of bonds to build a major water distribution system (Feather River Project) plus a number of smaller local projects—mostly in the north—for flood control, recreation and other purposes. Porter says the State Department of Water Resources figures on spending an average of something like $100 million a year on Legion Society To Fete Circus Orange County Voiture 527, 40 and 8 Society, Orange County's Honorary Society of the American Legion, will present the Ken Jensen Circus at the Orange County Fairgrounds on Sunday, Aug. 7, at 2 and 8 p.m. Carl E. Proctor of Orange, program chairman, states the 40 and 8 will use the proceeds of the show for their county-wide nurse training and child welfare programs for which it is noted, and members from throughout the county will be on hand in force to lend assistance. There will be approximately 20 acts featuring some of the finest circus talent in the world today, including America's funniest clowns, "Tonya"—the best trained young elephant in the US, the Sky Devil, four fearless aerial artists daring death 125 feet in the air without nets or safety devices; the Hoffman Family—Europe's greatest jugglers, the famous Ken Jensen Circus Liberty Ponies, Miss Clarita, petite darling of the tight wire; Cline's Comical Canines, and the Escalante Troupe, internationally acclaimed aerial acrobats, and many more thrilling acts. Night Owls Schedule Covered Dish Picnic The Fullerton Orange Tree Roost of Night Owls meets Sunday, Aug. 7, 2 p.m., at Harvard Park for a picnic. Mrs. Mabel Ragle, president, announces that this is to be a real old-fashioned picnic for all Night Owls and friends. Please bring your favorite covered dish and your own table service. This will be a time to get together for fun, friendship and fellowship. Low Cost Project In simple terms, he says, the water bond act authorizes the state to sell up to $1% billion worth of bonds to build a major water distribution system (Feather River Project) plus a number of smaller local projects—mostly in the north—for flood control, recreation and other purposes. Porter says the State Department of Water Resources figures on spending an average of something like $100 million a year on the projects described in the water bond act. He says this is only about one-fifth as much as the state is now spending for new highways and is even less than present yearly costs for running state hospitals and prisons. Porter goes on to say: "It seems ridiculous to beat around the bush over spending a comparatively small amount of money for water development when it's likely that the economy of the whole state will come crashing down around our ears if we don't meet our critical water needs pretty soon. If that happens we won't have much use for new highways or a lot of other things we're spending money for." In summarizing the water bond act for guidance of voters, Porter has stated: “If you agree with the experts that California must speed up its water development to prevent economic disaster, then the next decision is—how do w pay for it? Either the taxpayers as a whole stand the expense, or the people who benefit from th projects will pay for them through bonds. The second way seems to most people to be fairest and most workable and is the method to be followed under the water bond act.” Anaheim Banker Wins Appointment Bill Holden, assistant auditor of the California Bank, has been accepted as a student at the University of Wisconsin's School of Bank Auditors and Comptrollers.

Low Cost Project Civil Defense Officials Unveil Do-It-Yourself Shelter Plans Awaited announcement of fall-out shelter plans developed by civil defense for the residents of Orange County was made today by local CD officials. Four general categories of fall-out shelter plans include use of concrete block or shelters which are formed and poured of concrete; use of pre-cast concrete pipe or utilization of steel tanks or corrugated iron culvert. Similarity of recommendations as shown in the shelter sketches provides the citizen a choice of materials to be used under the approved regulations, it was pointed out by the shelter committee chairman, William Vasvary, Fullerton building superintendent. Recommendations for placement of the shelter beneath at least three feet of earth to protect occupants from radioactive fallout; together with suggestions concerning equipping the shelter for at least two weeks occupancy, constitute the civil defense portion of the plan. Wendy Ann Gross Is Orthopaedic Patient Wendy. Ann Gross, 8, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter P. Gross of 8812 Annapolis St., Anaheim, has been admitted as a patient at Los Angeles Orthopaedic Hospital, it was announced today. Anaheim is one of the many Southland communities which sends its handicapped children to Orthopaedic Hospital to become straight and strong. Although operational funds are provided Orthopaedic Hospital through such sources as Anaheim United Fund, its capital funds for expansion and new building must be raised through public appeal, officials pointed out. Residents of communities where children receive help were urged to support the institution's current fund drive for a new $6,500,-000 children's center, where care of the Southland's growing numbers of crippled children can be continued.

What to Do When Stalled on Road If your car should happen to get stalled out on the highway at night, you're in a dangerous situation and you should be prepared to handle such a situation. The important thing, according to the National Auomobile Club, is to make sure that both you and your car are well lighted and will be easily sighted. For yourself, always carry in your car some article of clothing that is made of white or reflectorized material so that it will show up clearly in the linghts of oncom-in gears. For your car, turn on the dome and dim lights and, if it equipped with directional signals, turn on the "right turn" signal and let it flash continually. It is a wise idea to carrry flares or easily seen reflector signs in your car so that when the stalling occurs you can place a flare or reflector about 100 ft. to the rear of your car, another 10 ft. to the rear, and another 100 ft. ahead.

Backs, Troutman, Kaulbars Mortuary Construction Ahead of Schedule Construction on the new Backs, Troutman & Kaulbars mortuary on La Palma near Euclid has been so rapid that a new target date has been set for its completion. Originally scheduled for opening in early 1961, it is now expected that the building will be ready for dedication about Thanksgiving Day. In commenting upon his good fortune, spokesman Bill Troutman said, "Except for a short delay in delivery of specially designed roof trusses there have been non of the usual annoying holdups which plagu contractors." The new establishment will be one of the most beautiful mortuary chapels in California, with over 10,000 square feet of floor space and a spacious parking area adjacent to the building. The overall design is of unusual interest, not only to members of the mor-tuary profession but to architects and builders. Unique features not to be found elsewhere will make it an Anaheim landmark. "Our new location," continued Troutman, "was chosen only after an intensive study of the growth and population movement in the Anaheim area. The new facilities will provide the utmost in comfort, convenience, and solemnity. The beautiful building will be enhanced by landscaping which will contribute to the peaceful atmosphere. "It has always been our policy," said Troutman, "to give the people of Orange County the very best in services and facilities. That is the cornstone upon which the firm was established nearly 90 years ago. The new La Palma Chapel will enable us to serve in an even larger measure the needs of this expanding community."
