Anaheim 'Intact' set for County District
The new boundaries for Orange county's five supervisorial districts were in effect today after adoption of a compromise plan by the supervisors. The new plan met all major objections from around the county, the one of particular interest to Anaheim being an earlier proposal that would have "split" the city between the third and fourth districts.
The new plan leaves Anaheim all in the third district of William Phillips except for a small area south of Katella Ave., which was put in the 2nd district of Dave Baker.
The adopted plan was endorsed by Mayor Rex Coons as being a "very equitable" compromise.
May Again Change
That the plan adopted may not continue in force for too long was the fear expressed by William Hirstein of the fourth District, Hirstein declared that the state legislature would probably enact some laws during this session which would have an effect on district boundaries. He saw population figures as being a guide line that would require new changes.
The distribution of cities by events at the onation center will culminate four Princesses.
New Ruling Affects
Small Business Act
Small Business Investment Companies will no longer be permitted by the Small Business Administration to surrender licenses unless the licensee's asset is liquidated, distribution is made to its shareholders, and dissolution follows. This was announced today by Alvin P. Meyers, Regional Director of SBA for Southern California, Arizona and Southern Nevada.
"Any request for permission to surrender a license must be accompanied by an acceptable and satisfactory plan for ultimate dissolution," Meyers explained.
From his youth Henry Ford was fascinated by engines and decided to provide a more economical and practical way of mechanical farming by developing a gasoline-powered Fordson tractor in 1917. This year is being observed as the 100th anniversary of Mr. Ford's birth.
Ford Motor Company, founded in 1803 by Henry Ford, has manufactured more than 60,000,000 passenger cars, trucks and farm tractors in the United States.
Methodist Birthday Rally
To Draw 45 Area Churches
Bishop Gerald Kennedy of Los Angeles will speak at First Methodist Church, Whittier, Sunday March 17 as Methodists gather from 45 churches of this area to celebrate the anniversary of the event that launched their denomination in England 225 years ago. This is one of a series of ten such rallies the Bishop will address during March in major cities of Southern California and Arizona.
Methodists look to the date of May 24, 1738 as the real beginning of their movement though there were "people called Methodists" before that time. It was on this day John Wesley, minister of the Church of England and a don at Oxford's Lincoln College experienced a personal transformation. Then began the warm-hearted preaching and lively zeal for social righteousness that have characterized the denomination down to the present.
The Lenten series of rallies will concentrate attention on the meaning of membership in the Church, with special recognition of those preparing for admission to Methodist rolls during the Easter season and other new members. Also in attendance will be persons working in Evangelism in local churches, Inquirer's Classes and Fishermen's groups.

Hanna Raps Home Loans Tax Change
Congressman Richard T. Hannah whose 34th Congressional District embraces the western portion of Orange County, today took a strong stand against that part of President John F. Kennedy's tax proposals which would eliminate the income tax deductions allowed for interest paid on home mortgages.
"I feel very strongly," Hannah emphasized, "that eliminating this deduction would be unfair to all those who have or even plan to purchase their own homes."
"The homeowner, burdened by one, two, or even three mortgages, has a hard enough time making ends meet without withdrawing this very legitimate deduction.
"Most of Orange County's citizens are homeowners. They committed themselves to long term obligations thinking that this deduction would be a continuing one.
"Furthermore," Hannah added, "the homeowners in Orange County, and in most parts of the country, already is carrying an excessive burden of property taxes.
"If we are not careful," Hannah continued, "we will soon find our ourselves discontented."

"The homeowners in Orange County, and in most parts of the country, already is carrying an excessive burden of property taxes.

Union Hits Dentists With Boycott Threat
The county dentists and nurses of Teamster Union den plans were at a stand-off each claiming that the accrual of their individual choice for dental bills should be able to the other. Controversy came to light member of the union, re- to number some 12,000, wives, were advised by en to change their dentist he agreed to use the union or submission of payment Charles O. Cross, director union's dental trust which is the payment of claims, range county dentists have to use the union forms. Orange County Dental Soc- according to their spokes- B. G. Byrd, has declined the union form because it calls for unnecessary information and requires too much time for the dentist to complete.
The Orange county form used by dentists lists only the total cost to the patient for all services performed. The union form calls for a breakdown of charges for each specific service.
The stand taken by the two opposing elements could leave the dental care members in the position of either paying for dental care out of their own pocket or being forced to go somewhere outside of Orange county for treatment.
Dr. Byrd asserted insurance companies paying for dental care for policy holders are satisfied with the short form in use in the county. He declares union officials should be similarly satisfied.
