NEWS OF FULLERTON TAKING PRECAUTIONS WITH MAIL LOCALLY If you see Postmaster Blackford and Assistant Postmaster McKelvey trampling up and down Spadra Avenue between the post office and the Santa Fe depot with a machine gun mounted on a wheelbarrow, don't get alarmed. Likewise if you see Henry Dyckman and Charlie Clark marching in the rear with gas masks, Springfield riffles, hand grenades and flame throwers, don't worry about it. The post office department has issued orders to arm all employees who handle registered mail and has also offered a reward of $5000 in real money to any employee who comes in dragging with him the gory corpse of a mail robber. A number of robberies of registered mail, some of them hundreds of thousands of dollars, has waked up the department to the fact that something must be done and done quickly. In the past, the registered mail for eight trains was made up into pouches which were thrown into the depot baggage room until the train arrived. Now this valuable mail is held until daylight as it is felt that registered mail demands safety first, with speed a secondary consideration. — If it's from Witman's, It's Good!

HARDING ADVISES LEAGUE BE JUNKED WASHINGTON, April 12.—Congress should adopt a resolution declaring peace with Germany without further delay, President Harding recommended in his first message to congress today. Such action, he said, could in no way be construed as a desertion of the allies. He made plain his belief that the league of nations is dead. Measures to lower taxes and lower retail prices were the outstanding features of his recommendation for dealing with democratic problems. The peace resolution, Harding explained, should undertake to do more than declare a state of peace and must put no difficulty in the way of collection of reparations or the restoration of war-torn Europe. Turning his back completely on the league of nations, the executive reaffirmed his allegiance to the ideal of a world association of nations. But this problem must be deliberately considered, he said, and he promised to invite the advice of the senate when he feels it time to act. "In the existing league of nations world governing with its super-powers, this republic will have no part," he said. "There can be no misinterpretation and there will be no betrayal of the deliberate expression of the American people in the recent election." "In rejecting the league covenant," he said later in his address, "we make no surrender of our hope and aim for an association to promote peace in which we would most heartily join." There is no more pressing problem, he said, than to restrict national expenses to national income, and at the same time lift burdens of war taxation. Economy is "the Outstanding and ever-impelling purpose, he insisted." Creation of a department of public welfare was declared for by Harding. He called for encouragement of the merchant marine, unbuilding of radio communications, co-operation with the state governments in the maintenance, as well as building of good roads, creation of budget system, protective tariff, encouragement of commercial and military aviation, adequate navy and steps to halt lynching.

Commercial centers are built by the home people spending their wealth in that center. As the hub of a certain section develops so does city and ranch property enhance in value. The worst fight smaller cities have to combat in their growth and development is when they are located on the fringe of a shopping district of a larger metropolis. It is this fight that is being waged now. Without thinking, people are "falling" for the plan to center wealth in Los Angeles. The bank clearances prove that thousands of dollars are leaving Anaheim every month to enrich other sections. Those dollars should stay at home to further develop this section; to be used in discovering new potentialities; to enhance property values. ARE YOU A TRADE-AWAY-FROM-HOME CITIZEN? BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF — IS IT FAIR? MEXICO ASSURES PROTECTION TO U. S. WASHINGTON, April 12.—The U. S. has won an important diplomatic fight with the Obregon government of Mexico, according to state department advises today. It was learned today that the department had protested to the Mexican government against steps to appropriate valuable American farming land in that country for division among Mexican peasants. Secretary of State Hughes has now been advised by American Charge d'Affairs Summerlin in Mexico City that Obregon had given assurance that no American or other foreign property would be disturbed in this proposed espropriation of land. —Try Plain Dealer Want Ads.
