German Cities Siezed ORANGE JAM CUBES, NEW WRINKLE, WILL BE MADE UP HERE Articles Filed for $100,000 Manufacturing Corporation to Make Product Here. Enter the marmalade cube! Away with meaning about in a hot kitchen! No longer will the housewife need to fuss with annoying details when it comes to that toothsome confection, orange marmalade. The marmalade cube has arrived. All that is required is the cube itself, a bit of boiling water, a little sugar and orange peel, and in ten minutes a dish of teething jam is ready for the table. F. B. Johnson, of Anaheim, a chemist, has worked out secretly a process for manufacturing orange marmalade cubes. An Orange-co corporation known as the Citricube company, capitalized at $100,000, has been organized to manufacture the product. As explained by one of the directors of the corporation, Johnson has No Opposition Shown To Invading Troops PARIS, March 8.—Two and one-years after the fighting stopped in the great world war the allies invaded Germany today and seized the principal cities "beyond the Rhine." Except for insignificant sniping by unorganized civilian residents there was no opposition to the invading troops. The allied military advance into the Ruhr district to compel Germany to meet the allied indemnity demands began at dawn. French, British and Belgian troops participated. The American army of occupation did not move forward. The occupation of Düsseldorf was completed at 9:50 o'clock. The first French troops entered Düsseldorf at 7:50 and the occupation was completed in about two hours. There was no untoward incidents. Big crowds gathered in the streets and watched soldiers planting batteries of mitrailleuses to sweep all the important squares. The bridges were put under heavy guard. French forces under Gen. Gaucher moved upon Duisberg and Ruhrort.

All that is required is the cube itself, a bit of boiling water, a little sugar and orange peel, and in ten minutes a dish of teeming jam is ready for the table. F. B. Johnson, of Anaheim, a chemist, has worked secretly a process for manufacturing orange marmalade cubes. An Orange-co corporation known as the Citricube company, capitalized at $100,000, has been organized to manufacture the product. As explained by one of the directors of the corporation, Johnson has devised a machine that will reduce citrus products to a concentrated form, comprising one cubic inch. This cube is treated in such a way that it can be converted into marmalade by being placed in boiling water for ten minutes. All that is necessary to add the finishing touches is a little sugar and orange peel. In the process of manufacture the oil in the orange and peel are treated separately. The fruit can be processed in one day, according to Johnson. There is no adulteration and the cube will not mold, nor deteriorate. Only samples of the product have been produced so far. But, according to the directors, these samples have been given the "acid test" and approved by scientists. The cubes will retail for approximately 15 cents each. The price will be low because of the fact that they will not have to be encased in glass jars or battles but in paper boxes. The company which will make the product will, according to one of the directors, pay $15 per ton for the oranges used in the process. One ton of the fruit, he says, will make 4000 cubes one inch square. And the 4000 cubes will, of course, weigh a good deal less than half a ton. According to the articles of incorporation, the principal place of business of the Citricube company is to be Anaheim. Units are to be established in all lofts of the citrus centers of the county. Three men can operate one plant. While the product has not been placed on the market yet it will be shortly. The directors plan to spend a large sum in advertising the product both in this section and in the East. The articles of incorporation on file in the county clerk's office show that the company is organized for the purpose of operating canneries, dehydrating plants, refineries, etc. The directors are R. R. Pember, Chet Johnson, F. B. Johnson of Anaheim; Thomas L. McFadden of Placentia and Walter Cadman of Fulterton.

Big crowds gathered in the streets and watched soldiers planting batteries of mitraileuses to sweep all the important squares. The bridges were put under heavy guard. Gen. de Goutte, who is commander in chief of the French army of occupation, established headquarters at Nueff, opposite Dusseldorf, and directed the occupation of Dusseldorf from that place.

N. Clark, investigating the theft of approximately $15 worth of tobacco from the cigar stand of G. E. Mansperger, Euclidave. The opinion regarding the length of the burglar's arms was reached when it was revealed that the thieves, after cutting a hole 3-4 by 9-1-2 inches in the cigar case window, which also served as the front window for the shop, reached in a distance of close to three feet and abstracted what cigars and scrap tobacco they desired.

WILL HAVE OVER Siezed by Forces of Allies SUCCESSFUL MAN IN DEBT TO COMMUNITY ASSERTS DR. OLIVER Kiwanis Speaker Takes His Hat Off to Anaheim, for Wonderful Improvement in 27 Years. That he takes off his hat to the people of Anaheim every time he passes thru the city was the declaration today by Dr. John Oliver, pastor of Santa Ana Methodist church, in an address before the Kiwanis club of Anaheim at the weekly luncheon in the high school cafeteria today. He stated that when he first visited Anaheim 27 years ago there were saisons and every kind of wickedness but now the city is certainly a credit to citizens who have reformed it from that low state. J. F. Ahlborn, chairman, made the point of order that the next time Dr. Oliver came thru Anaheim and took off his hat he should hang it on a peg and take up his abode here. Dr. Oliver's address was along the line of the community spirit, stating that there are not nearly enough County Erects Home For Harbor Weatherman County supervisors today authorized County Purchasing Agent Slaughter to proceed with the erection of a $1000 cottage on the Palisades at the entrance to the county harbor for the caretaker of the new meteorological station. When the caretaker is installed, this will be one of three such government posts on the coast, the other two being located at San Pedro and San Francisco. The decision today is the result of a request made six months ago by Pres. Linn L. Shaw and Sec. Lew H. Wallace of the county harbor commission to the U.S. Weather Bureau for a steel tower at the harbor entrance. This was granted on provision that the county erect a residence for the caretaker. The tower will flash storm signals by means of flags. PACIFIC FLEET HOME AFTER LONG CRUISE LOS ANGELES, March 8. — The Pacific fleet rolled into San Pedro harbor today.

He stated that when he first visited Anaheim 27 years ago there were nooons and every kind of wickedness but now the city is certainly a credit to citizens who have reformed it from that low state. J. F. Ahlborn, chairman, made the point of order that the next time Dr. Oliver came thru Anaheim and took off his hat he should hang it on a peg and take up his abode here. Dr. Oliver's address was along the line of the community spirit, stating that there are not nearly enough men who realize its importance. A man who strikes an oil well or a man who makes a success in any line of business owes both time and money to the community. Not all of them realize this, he said. He also pointed out that the community owes much to its rising generation. Children are brot into the world without being consulted and the parents owe it to them to give them every advantage in schools and otherwise. Prof. Collins, representative of the John Brown school at Silboam Springs, Ark., delivered a short address on citizenship, endorsing the stand taken by Dr. Oliver. There was a large attendance, including several visitors. The attendance prize given by George Ross, was won by Ernest Zitzmann of the First National Bank. A H.

Others, according to the officers, hauled loads two and three tons overweight. Among the truck drivers arrested in the last few days are Harry Ashton, J. Bodden, L. Stockstill, J. D. Jett and R. Ruedy. These were cited to appear before Justice Cox by officers Vernon Myers and Warner. Two of the drivers were caught on the Buena Park boulevard and three on the Irvine boulevard. District Attorney Nelson today said that it is his intention to have an officer stationed at every highway entrance to the county even if more men have to be employed, and the board of supervisors recently authorized him to do this. PACIFIC FLEET HOME AFTER LONG CRUISE LOS ANGELES, March 8. — The Pacific fleet rolled into San Pedro harbor today.

PROWLER-AT HOME OF GUNMEN'S VICTIM LOS ANGELES, March 8. — A prowler early today sought to enter the residence of Mrs. Alex B. Chambers wife of the Pomona motorcycle mission to the U.S. Weather Bureau for a steel tower at the harbor entrance. This was granted on provision that the county erect a residence for the caretaker. The tower will flash storm signals by means of flags. The show finance committee will now feel free to accept show memberships from Fullerton as well as from Anaheim and other Orange-co points. President Riley explained that the scope of the show would not be confined to Anaheim but was intended as a fitting presentation of the Valencia orange, distinctly an Orange-co product, and that all sections producing it would benefit from the exposition. The Fullerton B. of T., directors entered heartily into the plan and gave their unqualified commendation. The action by the Fullerton B. of T., directors follows similar action by the A.C. of C. Greatest Misfortune In History of World So seriously is the famine situation in China regarded that the General Relief Committee, Inc., has decided to break a long established rule and issue a special appeal in cooperation with the American Committee for the China Famine Fund, according to advises received by H. H. Benjamin, local chairman of the China Relief Fund. The General Relief Committee is composed of 28 men and women prominent in public life and includes the governors of ten states. In making the announcement of this decision, Charles H. Sabin, treasurer of the General Relief Committee, stated that "the famine distress in China, which eclipses any other relief need ever brought to the doors of America, has become so suspicious a misfortune that the officials of the General Relief Committee, Inc., have decided to place the whole of their facilities behind the effort to alleviate it." The China famine is the greatest natural misfortune in the world's history. Trained investigators practiced men, and a few thoroughly experienced women have investigated and reported conditions. It developed that 15,000,000 were starving and no less than 45,000,000 are seriously affected. Reports, fully authenticated, tell of whole families committing suicide; of whole provinces living on weeds, leaves, roots, bark and grass; children being drowned, girls being sold for $2 each. Every report emphasizes the fact that the children suffer the most. Aside from death by actual starvation, there are beginning dreadful disease epidemics. These will consume weakened bodies like a forest fire burns dry leaves. Then will come the spread of contagion to other parts of the Chinese Empire and eventually to the outside world. There is absolutely no basis of comparison between this and any other famine the world has ever known. In the point of the number of victims or the wide spread of the disaster. The imagination is defied. But one thing stands out clearly; those who have must give. They must give to same human lives; Among the last few days are Harry Ashton, J. Bodden, L. Stockstill, J. D. Jett and R. Ruedy. These were cited to appear before Justice Cox by officers Vernon Myers and Warner- Two of the drivers were caught on the Buena Park boulevard and three on the Irvine boulevard. District Attorney Nelson today said that it is his intention to have an officer stationed at every highway entrance to the county even if more men have to be employed, and the board of supervisors recently authorized him to do this. SLEEPER TO APPEAR AT HEARING ON OIL County Assessor James Sleeper left last night for Sacramento that he may be present at the hearing tonight upon bills that seek to place oil properties under the control of the state railroad commission. Orange-co representatives are opposing any move tending to take oil properties from local taxation and placing the munder state taxation only. The hearing tonight will be before the public utilities committee of the assembly. County Assessor Sleeper, who was in Sacramento ten days ago, and County Auditor W. C. Jerome, who returned from Sacramento Friday, are of the opinion that the measures will be killed. The oil companies are opposed to control by the state commission, declaring that development operations would be crippled. Jerome said that a number of counties aside from those in which oil fields are located are fighting the bill, including some in which refinies are located. It was learned today that the Farm Bureau of Glen County favors the measure. A wire was received Saturday night from Assemblyman W. Hart of Orange suggesting that some of the county officials be present at the hearing. $150 BARBER TOOLS STOLEN Frank C.
