The city safety chairman, Charles E. Griffith, directs the city's safety program and receives assistance from Robert Penrod, State Fund safety engineer. LAW IN ACTION LAW IN ACTION JUST IN CASE It's the efficient ones who all too often fail to make plans—about the most important things. Consider a will: No matter how big or little your estate, you need a will, for without one you make needless and costly troubles by leaving the courts to handle your estate. A survivor may find it hard to take care of the children while awaiting a court's permission to use estate funds. Have a lawyer draw up your will at once to prevent family rows, needless court actions, freezing of funds. The cost is minor. Review your will to meet new circumstances — births, deaths, marriages, and changes in your fortune as well as changes in the tax law. Think well about the choice of an executor of your estate. He may have a tough job. He must, for instance, offer your will for probate in court, notify all interested persons, take possession of all property and prepare a detailed inventory of it, file an appraisal in court, attend appraisers' meetings, file all income tax returns, etc. Be sure to name a trusted executor. Without a will, the probate court must name an administrator, very often a stranger to one's family. Best of all, gather your legal papers together, call up a lawyer, make an appointment with him and go over all your property, business and family situations. He has done this with many others and may have suggestions to solve your problems, save taxes, and take care of your family. Such an act will ease your mind and save your family all sorts of uncertainty and trouble.

Hoover's campaign has been clean and free from mud-slinging. He is too great a man to indulge in such tactics, and has shown himself to be fitted in every way for the high office of president of the United States. Mr. Hoover's speeches have been logical and convincing, and prove that he has a remarkable grasp of the national situation and the legislation needed by all classes of industry. Wanted: One Freeway Motorists who complain that city streets are not laid out properly, that traffic is unduly congested, and that "something should be done about it," must YOUR LEGISLATOR AT WORK SEN. JOHN A. MURDY, JR. State Senator A regional meeting of the Southern California Narcotics Officers Association was held recently in Orange County. To be sure, there was a divergence of opinion on what kind of an organization or program California needs to control the narcotics problem. Though acknowledging the fact that the state legislature did pass stiffer laws and a complicated commitment statute for addicts, nearly everyone admitted there is still much more to be done. Many officers feel we still need stiffer laws, citing Ohio and Michigan, where a minimum 20 years to life is given to peddlers. There, they said, the dope problem is disappearing. State Senator Richard Dolwig was on hand to explain the theory behind the present program. He is, by the way, the GOP candidate in 1962 for Attorney General. Dolwig said the narcotics problem is divided into three major categories: prevention, prosecution or punishment, and rehabilitation. Prevention includes activity programs for young people, as well as for adults, to keep them out of trouble. It means working with problem children and, most important, it means sealing off the borders from dope smugglers. Accreditation Study Continued Applications for continuation of Fullerton Junior College accreditation, a document of 125 pages, was completed under the general direction of President H. Lynn Sheller and submitted this week to the Western College Association. The accreditation team, headed by Dr. John A. Murdy, said.

Grocery Staff Tours Riverside Facilities Mrs. Vinnie Hutchison, president of All American Markets, and 48 members of her organization including officers, board of directors, and managerial personnel were recently hosted by Orange Empire Co-op at Riverside. All facilities of the Riverside Division were inspected by the All American staff, and included the Grocery Warehouse operation, Advertising and IBM departments, Housewares and Sundries warehouse, Frozen Foods and Delicatessen warehouses, and the Orange Premium Stamp warehouse. The tour was concluded withinner at the Victoria Country Club where the guests were welcomed by Paul A. Lewis, president of Alfred M. Lewis, Inc., sponsors of OEC. Vinnie Hutchison responded on behalf of All American Markets. Mrs. Hutchison has been active in the direction of the 13-market chain since the recent death of her husband, Blayne L. Hutchison, Sr., who was a well-known civic leader in southern California. As president of this aggressive chain of super markets, she presides over the monthly board meeting and so much more. Dolwig said the narcotics problem is divided into three major categories: prevention, prosecution or punishment, and rehabilitation. Prevention includes activity programs for young people, as well as for adults, to keep them out of trouble. It means working with problem children and, most important, it means sealing off the borders from dope smugglers. The latter is probably the most difficult of all. It also includes cooperation with the Federal Government and neighboring countries. Even the United Nations could help in this international problem. Punishment and prosecution are the main concern of law enforcement people, and well they should be. These officers are entrusted by the community with weeding out the peddlers and addicts to make sure they do not infect society any more than can be helped. And the narcotics officers are doing a good job—more so than most of us appreciate. Many of them feel we have tied their hands with law and court decisions which seemingly set free these enemies of society after the officers have worked so hard to catch them. In certain cases this criticism is justified. But as District Attorney Kenneth Williams put it, the whole issue boils down to the old debate of individual freedom. Search and seizure and methods of obtaining evidence are involved. How much individual freedom can we afford to give up in order to catch the dope criminals? This remains to be answered in future sessions of the state legislature. Rehabilitation is also a controversial subject. Many law enforcement officials laugh at the word, for they contend there is practically no rehabilitation of a dope peddler or addict. The new state narcotics treatment center should answer this "cure" debate once and for all. But we will have to give it a fair chance to prove itself worthy of continuance, or cut it out entirely so that tax Applications for continuation of Fullerton Junior College accreditation, a document of 125 pages, was completed under the general direction of President H. Lynn Sheller and submitted this week to the Western College Association. The accreditation team, headed by Dr. Julio L. Bortolazzo, president of College of San Mateo, will make a thorough study of the college and its educational program: Nov. 14 and 15 will be the dates for the six-member team's visit, said Dr. Sheller. He asked that the college faculty and students carry on in the normal way. Team members may visit classes, or talk with teachers and students, or talk with residents in the community about the college program. The application for continuance of accreditation, submitted to Dr. Mitchell P. Briggs, executive secretary of the Western College Association, with offices at Fresno State College, "is part of the accreditation procedure, in which every five years teams visit each of the four-year colleges or universities (public and private) and junior colleges throughout Cali- Tests Scheduled A Testing Service for Orange County is being offered next month by Orange County State College, it was announced this week by the college. Area students interested in the American College Testing Program and the College Entrance Examination Board Tests are reminded by Dr. Lester Beals, associate dean of students, counseling and testing, that OCSC has scheduled ACT examinations for Nov. 4 at 8 p.m. in room 701. Mrs. Hutchison has been active in the direction of the 13-market chain since the recent death of her husband, Blayne S. Hutchison, Sr., who was a well-known civic leader in southern California. As president of this aggressive chain of super markets, she presides over the monthly board meeting and a weekly executive board operational committee, as well as the administrative duties of her office. Study' Sessions For Educators Educational meetings will be attended by representatives of the Anaheim city schools following approval voted by the board of education at its meeting Tuesday. Mrs. Lynn Rothmeier, coordinating nurse of this district, attends the annual convention of the California School Health Association at Long Beach Nov. 5 and 5. District employees who will participate in the regional convention of the National Association of Educational Securities Nov. 3, 4, 5 at the Charler House in Anaheim are: Gene Frederick, Dean Ann Burnipseed, Lois Crowe, Kaye Pancher, Marguerite Jackson, Jenrietta Slingsby, Elna Louau, Evelyn Snow, Alice Barer, Fern LaFollette, Leola Boww and Bessie Frey. Rehabilitation is also a controversial subject. Many law enforcement officials laugh at the word, for they contend there is practically no rehabilitation of a dope peddler or addict. The new state narcotics treatment center should answer this "cure" debate once and for all. But we will have to give it a fair chance to prove itself worthy of continuance, or cut it out entirely so that tax money can be spent where it will do the most good. There are those who feel addicts can be rehabilitated if, once they are cured, they are not put back in the same social environment of our community where they were originally prone and motivated to the use of narcotics instead of facing reality like most of our mature citizens. Chairman Named Irving R. Susskind will be one of the outstanding workshop chairmen at the fifth Orange County Management conference to be held Saturday, Nov. 5 at Chapman College.
