2—ANAHEIM GAZETTE Wednesday, December 8, 1983 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA BLOIGHTS Lots More Grist In This Mill By DORIS LEE Well, it's happened again. I hatched a clever idea for a column, collected a pile of notes for it and before I could get it written someone beat me to the punch and not only wrote it but also sold it to some national magazine. This time it was author-humorist H. Allen Smith. In this month's Reader's Digest he's running an article entitled, "Leave Me Some Illusions," dealing with the very subject I've been toying with for months. In the article he tells of his disillusionment over the shattering of sacred beliefs he's held dear to his heart all his life. For instance, he says, here he's been brushing his teeth all these years and now he learns he should have been massaging the gums. He's also discovered that mice aren't really crazy about cheese; sweet corn doesn't have to be rushed from the stalk to the stove to maintain its flavor; a suntan is not a sign of health but a sign of potential skin cancer; birds don't really sing, they scream at other birds to keep off their property; and salt tablets don't help one bit when you're sweating. I already knew all these things and had them all listed neatly on a tablet ready to transform into an illuminating column when I discovered I'd been plagiarized. Romance Killer I was going to mention a few other things too, such as, the space age being a cancer killer. And take Tahiti, land of plenty, where money isn't necessary because you don't need clothes and the whole outdoors is one big grocery store; and where the girls have naturally curly hair. Well, what the girls don't have is teeth, and as far as they're concerned a little cash would come in handy toward the purchase of dentures. Tropical Greenery But here's something Californians will be happy to hear. Tropical Florida, our own built-in Tahiti, is moldy. When they talk about Florida where everything is green, they mean it literally. Everything certainly is green — the trees, the lawns, the walls, the mattresses, the shoes. In Florida, sit still for five minutes and you blend into the scenery. In some parts of Florida it's so damp people sleep in vacillating beds to keep from getting moldy overnight. So much for the faraway places with the strange sounding names. Now for a crushing blow to your lovers. You can quit knocking yourself out for that appealing little fluff of fur. He doesn't appreciate it. Your cat doesn't love you. He doesn't love anybody, not even other cats. Cats are cold, unfeeling creatures. They have a practical reason for liking to be petted. It releases the static electricity that builds up in their fur. They get the same result from rubbing against a chair leg, or your leg. Cold Cat 84 Years Age This Week December, 1978 The Board of Town Trust had a meeting yesterday afternoon. Messrs. Cohen and Yoc were appointed a committee to purchase buckets, rope and hooks for use of the Fire Department, the cost not to exceed $100. The petition of citizens on W Street to have the street graded was referred to the Committee Public Improvement. The Marshall was instructed to collect taxes until January 1 without acting the additional five cents. The Marshall was ordered either collect the dog tax or let the dogs. The public schools of Anaheim will close for the holidays on 20th. They will reopen about sixth of January and it is to hoped that the new school hoo will be ready for occupancy that time. J. K. Tuffree will auction off his fine lot of dairy stock on 21st. The completion of the Cap ditch has made his land too valuable to longer justify him in keeping it only as a pasture farm. Henry Paty has closed contract with the Los Angeles Gas company to haul 200 tons of breeze to the Anaheim depot. It brought in his first load yesterday. We acknowledge a visit from W. Lake, one of the most perous and enterprising mchants of Santa Ana. A. Guy Smith and Co. offer house and lot at the corner. Romance Killer I was going to mention a few other things too, such as, the space age being a romance killer. We no longer gaze at a silvery moon and diamond-like stars in a velvet sky. Now our educated eye sees a dusty satellite and a bunch of gaseous balls in a colorless atmosphere. Also in my notes was a list of romantic places everyone dreams of visiting. Remember Katherine Hepburn in "Summertime?" It was beautiful. All those gondolas and sidewalk cafes and soft music. And romantic Rosanna Brazzi breathing passionately on her. Next time you see it on television talk, a good look at Katie's expression in the close-ups. That frightening smile isn't there because Rosanna has halitosis. It's there because the whole city has hallitos. Venice reeks in the summer. Cold Cat A cat will never sidle up to you unless there's something in it for him, such as food or a warm lap to sleep on. You never hear of a cat bringing you the evening paper, or rescue anybody from drowning, or keeping a vigil outside a hospital door while you undergo a seven-hour operation. If you're going to drown, or have your epidermis sliced open, you're on your own. It's every cat for himself. And get your own paper, too. H. Allen Smith can have this story. I have other ideas. Right now I'm working on a terrific idea for a satirical series on the Kennedys. Maybe I'll even make a record album and call it "The First Family." I'll bet H. Allen Smith hasn't thought of that. Santa's Letters Fall of Flattery Love and kisses and a generous assortment of endearing phrases are liberally sprinkled in this week's letters to Santa in an effort to keep him well buttered up overween now and Christmas. Although some of the letters are clearly in the handwriting of mother or father, it is obvious that they are well-dictated, some of them running into lengthy lists.

Legislature W Automatic Re Of Superviso Another attempt is contemplated at the next session of the California Legislature to require automatic redistricting of county supervisorial districts, according to a report by Senator John A. Murdy, Jr., of Orange County's 35th Senatorial District. Murdy pointed out that it will probably be a follow-up to similar legislation in 1961 that failed to become law. "Back of this proposed bill is the California Junior Chamber of Commerce and other interested groups who have been concerned with the inequity of representation in supervisorial districts," Murdy stated. Murdy recalled that at a recent state board meeting in Palm Springs, the state Jaycees voted to support another attempt.

GI Insurance To Total More than $327 million in 1963 GI insurance dividends — including a special dividend of $90 million — will be paid in record time, according to John S. Gleason, Jr., Administrator of Veterans Affairs. Plans for payment of both regular and special 1963 dividends were announced by the White House November 22. Under a greatly speeded-up timetable, the entire payment of both regular and special dividend payments is expected to be completed during the month of January, 1963. Regular Dividend About $22 million of the $327 million total is the regular 1963 dividend that will go to nearly five million World War II veterans holding National Service Life Insurance (NSLI) policies. Regular dividends, which are Anaheim Memories 40 Years Ago This Week December, 1878 The Board of Town Trustees met yesterday after Messrs.

His rubber tired vehicles comprise the newest creations and are going at prices hitherto unheard of. Inspect his stock before purchasing elsewhere. A. T. Pendleton was in town on Monday from Placentia. Mr. Pendleton is one of the leading horticulturists of that section, and reports oranges promising the heaviest crop in years, although some damage was sustained in the recent windstorm. Frank Stone has taken his arm out of the aling in which he has carried it for some weeks on account of a broken collar bone. He will soon be himself again. Tim Carroll was in town yesterday for the first time since his return from Colorado. He has been having trouble with his eyes, but is improving. Archie Henry and James. Henry, two of the progressive young horticulturists of Caledonia, were in town on Monday on a brief business mission.

Mort Webster, Manager of VA's Southern California Regional Office announced today. This October check is the first check to reflect the increased compensation payment voted by the recent session of Congress. It contains a special retroactive payment amounting to four times the amount each veteran will receive each month thereafter, according to Webster. The amount of increase each month hereafter to be received by veterans in Southern California will be $465,889. Webster said. $98 Million Annually Throughout the nation the compensation hike for the two million service-connected disabled veterans totals $98 million a year and was geared to reflect the increases in the cost of living since the last increase in 1957. Webster emphasized there is no need for the veteran to contact the Veterans Administration. These compensation checks are being processed automatically with electronic data processing equipment. The average increase amounts to 9.4 percent. $80 Per Cent Paid Compensation for peacetime service-connected disabilities is paid at approximately 80 per cent of that paid for wartime service-connected disabilities. Webster stressed that the in CONTROLLED MEDICAL LAShes A medical service representative of a prominent drug company lashed out at "the danger the Medicare Bill" in a retrial before the Women's Auxiliary of the Orange County Pharmaceutical Association. Vincent Arrigo, employee of A. H. Robins Pharmaceuticals told the attending ladies of the sociation that research will, haps within the next 20 years provide the cure for cancer, kemia, heart diseases, and other medical mysteries not yet solved. "But," he warned, "the sea for those cures will not be possible if we allow some of our nation's leaders to succeed in living the effectiveness of certain segments of our health team even in converting them into emerimental functionaries." The move in this direction be seen in the present administration's determination to bring real care under the Social Security system (Medicare), Conspirational activities to adopt centive-destroying legislation reduce patent protection from years to three and grants of a cratic power to the Secretary Health, Education and Welfare licensing and allocating gen names to drugs, not even subject to hearings or appeals, Are continued. Medicare Tabled Living Christmas Gaining in Population Hislature Will Seek Automatic Redistricting Supervisors: Murdy The attempt is contemplated next session of the California Legislature to require automatic redistricting of county social districts, according to report by Senator John A. Jr., of Orange County's electoral District. It pointed out that it will be a follow-up to similar action in 1961 that failed to be implemented of this proposed bill is Corona Junior Chamber of Commerce and other interested organizations have been concerned unequity of representation in social districts," Murdy recalled that at a recent board meeting in Palm Desert the state Jaycees voted another attempt. 1961 state legislature did not requiring each county committee to study the subject, about 80 per cent of the 58 counties in California have redistricting problems where three of the five-member board of supervisors represents less than half of the voters in the county. This had been labeled minority rule not in the best interest of the people," he said. This same survey showed some counties had not redistricted their boards of supervisors for 75 years and with the great influx of population, the inequities are said to have become more serious. It was also reported that some supervisors in a county represented only a few hundred persons while his colleagues each might represent two or three times as many. "Orange County is in the process of having a Christmas tree that stays green and fresh during the holidays is a special treat. And having one that stays green through several holiday seasons is almost too good to be true. You can have this, however, when you turn your back on the practice of buying cut trees and invest, instead, in the pleasure of a "living" Christmas tree for your family. Living Christmas trees are becoming more and more a fixture in some California homes. They are, at least, judging by the number of coniferous evergreens which members of the California Association of Nurserymen report selling at this time o fyear. Many of these trees are for exterior use; of course, but many others are being used indoors, then kept in containers through the years for use again and again. The advantages of such practice are many. In addition to having that permanent freshness mentioned above, you have a critical care under the Social Security system (Medicare), conscientious activities to adopt centive-destroying legislation, reduce patent protection from years to three and grants of a cratic power to the Secretary Health, Education and Welfare licensing and allocating gen names to drugs, not even subdue to hearings or appeals, Are continued. Medicare Tabled "Although Medicare has been tabled in the Senate, President Kennedy promised it will be introduced. Therefore, Arrived said, the public must know dangers of this bill." First, he said, the Medicare plan will not pay for surgical procedures, prescriptions, medicines...

For payment of both regi-special 1963 dividends introduced by the White November 22. A greatly speeded-up the entire payment of war and special dividend is expected to be com-ming the month of Jan-uar. Regular Dividend $327 million of the $327 mil-lal is the regular 1963mal that will go to nearly World War II vetera-tional Service Life In-SLI) policies. Dividends, which are distributed annually, have regularly been paid on the annivers-ary date of the original issuance of the policy. On this occasion, the payment will be speeded up to be completed within the month of January. An accelerated method was used once before by the Veterans Administration when the regular dividends during 1961 were paid by mid-March of that year. Special Dividend In addition to the regular divi-dend, the VA will pay a special dividend of $90 million during 1963 to all World War II NSLI policy-holders. A previous special dividend was paid to World War II policyholders during 1961. The dividends which are paid to both World War I and World War II policyholders are primarily a return to the policyholders of part of their premium payments since the death rate among GI policy-holders continues to be lower than the rate upon which the payments were established by law. From Reserve Fund The special dividend will be paid from the contingency reserve fund due to the fact that study and current experience indicate that the fund is more than ample to meet the needs of the insurance program. VA officials reminded veteran policyholders that the preparing and mailing of the dividend payment was automatic and required no correspondence from veterans or their families. In fact, such correspondence might delay the dividend disbursement process, they said. Spruces Available Three spruces are genera-available, though here again ditiation varies according to your climate area in California. Ask C.A.N. nurseryman about the Colorado Spruce, the Alberta Spruce and the Norway Spruce. The first two are popular for their "blue foliage, and the latter is especially popular with those who grow it on an outdoor tree. You can use it in doors for a year or two, then give it a spot which permits its use outdoors decoration. All these spruces have a neat orderly look about them, with short needles and full growth. Among the pines, the favorite is recent years has become the Monterey Pine. Christmas tree lots have stocked more and more these long-needle beauties as do mand for them has grown. More terey Pines make a bushy, pyramidal growth when they are young, but after a few years they outgrow their use as Christmas trees to become one of most distinctive specimen trees with wide - spreading branches. Container culture will keep them down for a few years but not for ever. Enjoy them indoors while you can. Favorite Trees A California trademark is Christmas is the Deodar Cedar. It is the traditional outdoor Christmas tree — a silvery blue speci-men of true pyramidal growth. Try using it indoors for a season or two, then planting it out. This is widely grown throughout the state and is the favorite living Christmas tree in southern California. It well deserves the nickname "California Christmas Tree." There are others of more limited distribution which your nurseryman can tell you about. The Scotch Pine is worth knowing. It has a dense growth of blue green CONTROLLED MEDICINE Medical Service Man Lashes Medicare Bill a medical service representative of a prominent drug compalashed out at "the dangers of Medicare Bill" in a recent preference before the Women's Auxiliary the Orange County Pharmaceutical Association. Incent Arrigo, employee of the H. Robins Pharmaceutical Co., is the attending ladies of the association that research will persists within the next 20 years, provide the cure for cancer, leunia, heart diseases, and other medical mysteries not yet solved. But," he warned, "the search those cures will not be posifiwe allow some of our nators leaders to succeed in limiting the effectiveness of certain measures of our health team, or in converting them into政 府al functionaries." The move in this direction can be seen in the present administration's determination to bring medcare under the Social Secursystem (Medicare), Congresial activities to adopt invive-destroying legislation to ensure patent protection from 17 years to three and grants of autofic power to the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare in using and allocating generic uses to drugs, not even subject hearings or appeals, Arrigo minued. Medicare Tabled drugs of any kind administered outside the hospital, or for most doctor bills incurred in a hospital. Second, Medicare costs will be financed through the Social Security system, thereby increasing withholding taxes upon the wage earners. And third, it will lead inevitably to government-controlled medicine, which can only mean poor medical service for all citizens. “This conclusion,” Arrigo added, “is inescapable in light of history where we see grave problems developing in England, not to mention the doctors’ fight in nearbv Saskatchewan.” Government Medicine Arrigo quoted a statement by Senator Carl Curtis of Nebraska, to show the menace of Medicare: "The enactment of the Kennedy proposal means government medicine. If government funds are spent to provide hospital and related medical care, the Congress must give thought as to how their money will be spent. There will be rules and regulations. There will be contracts with hospitals and doctors." The speaker pointed to legislation already on the statute books, known as the Kerr-Mills, he said, is designed to tax people in all brackets and is based on income from general revenue to Citing facts contained in an article in U.S News and World Report, Arrigo told his audience that benefits promised to people now covered by old age and survivors insurance total an estimated $624 billion. Reserves now on hand total around $22 billion. Taxes to be paid by people now covered by Social Security are to be an estimated $282 billion. That leaves $320 billion in benefits to present policy holders to be paid either by future workers at tax rates now in the law, or by present workers paying sharply higher taxes. It is not the purpose of the medical team to oppose legislation which has a constructive application, the speaker said. But, he emphasized, those enacted must be "fair and just" and consistent with the free enterprise system which has given the country unparalleled medical achievements and a prosperity second to none. VA Asks Prompt Income Reporting By Disabled Vets This year's income reporting care under the Social Security system (Medicare), Congressional activities to adopt active-destroying legislation to place patent protection from 17 years to three and grants of auto-power to the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare in issuing and allocating generic drugs, not even subject to hearings or appeals, Arrigo continued. Medicare Tabled Although Medicare has been used in the Senate, President Kennedy promised it will be re-reduced. Therefore, Arrigo, the public must know the dangers of this bill." First, he said, the Medicare plan does not pay for surgical procedures, prescriptions, medicines or spent to provide hospital and related medical care, the Congress must give thought as to how this money will be spent. There will be rules and regulations. There will be contracts with hospitals and doctors." The speaker pointed to legislation already on the statute books, known as the Kerr-Mills, he said, is designed to tax people in all brackets and is based on income from general revenue to benefit those over 65 who need help. Under the Social Security approach, forty per cent of the nation's income pays no Social Security tax, thus a disproportionate burden falls upon the working folk, generally younger people with heavy family responsibilities. Christmas Trees in Popularity buy conifers only for this, but not have the added fun at Christmas time. Then, too, you buy a tree that one day may be a feature in your landscape. There several conifers which themselves to use as living Christmas trees. In many parts of state, a White Fir makes as a tree as you could hope for. And pyramidal in its growth form, the White Fir has proved on many a Christmas tree Douglas Fir, another stand-off of the seasonal trade, is also available in some C.A.N. muser-out its distribution is rather varied. Spruces Available Tree spruces are generally stable, though here again discontinuates according to your area in California. Ask a nurseryman about the Col-Spruce, the Alberta Spruce, the Norway Spruce. The first are popular for their "blue" hue, and the latter is especially耐水 with those who grow it as indoor tree. You can use it in nedles, shorter than a Monterey Pine but not so short as the spruces. Aleppo Pine is another which deserves social consideration for outdoor plantings. It adapts to all California climates, even desert climates which are normally harsh on conifers. Like all plants, conifers find indoor conditions difficult to live with for long, and special care should be taken to insure their good health through the holiday season. They prefer temperatures that are not excessive. It is often unpleasant to keep heat too low during December, but try not to overheat a room with a living Christmas tree in it. Water it lightly twice a week, also, to ensure adequate moisture. When the holiday is over, move the tree outside as soon as possible, but not before you've had full use of it. VA Asks Prompt Income Reporting By Disabled Vets This year's income reporting time begins one month earlier than usual for 50,900 disabled veterans and the dependents of some 34,600 deceased veterans on VA pension in Southern California, Mort Webster, Manager of VA's Southern California Regional Office explained today. Along with their November 30 checks, all VA pension recipients will receive enclosed tabulating cards. They carry the words "please do not mutilate." It is important that these instructions be followed. On these cards beneficiaries must report all income received during 1962 and that expected in 1963. Income means everything, including: Social Security payments, except of course the VA pension payments themselves. Law requires the VA to use the reports to determine continued eligibility of pensioners and in some cases to make adjustments on the basis of increased or decreased outside income. The most important thing is getting those cards back from the beneficiaries. Prompt and accurate reporting can save the VA — and the beneficiary — both delay and head ache. Dance Studio To Be In National Show Among the participants on the Community Stage at the 1963 National Orange Show to be held in San Bernardino March 14 through 24 will be the Jean Lockin Dance Studio, of 9270 Katella, Anaheim. A variety dance revue will be presented by a group of fifty students. Old-fashioned Toys Old-fashioned Toys To Be on Display The Annual Christmas exhibit at the Charles W. Bowers Memorial Museum, Santa Ana will be shown from Dec. 6 through Jan. 2. A special feature will be boys and girls Christmas toys from days before 1920. Ecept for craftsmen in family circles very few toys were manufactured in America before World War I. Most came from Germany with Europe and Japan sending the balance. Mechanical and construction toys were commonly made of cast iron and other metals were often used as was wood. Of course this was long before plastics or common usage of rubber. Even dolls for girls and doll house furnishings were European. They even made their own accessories such as crib blankets and doll clothes. Outdoor winter play equipment such as sleds were important to the bulk of Americans who lived in snow and ice regions. Also will be shown Madonnas in various art media and in sculpture. A special exhibit will be two Madonnas which are carved from huge nuggets of turquoise. These are from the private collection of Wallace Trading Post, Gallup, New Mexico. The paintings of Madonnas are from the museum collections as well as contemporary artists of Southern California. The toys are from Bowers and other museums as well as from generous contributors. Museum hours are: daily except Mondays, 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Sundays 1 to 5 p.m., Thursday evenings — 7 to 8 p.m. There is no admission fee.
