This Paper Accepts All Advertising on the Understanding That Its Circulation Equals Any Three Others In This Field. VOL. XXIV—No. 219 GREAT STRIKER Stewart Fruit | Co. Plants ANAHEIMERS VISIT MEXICAN VILLAGES WRECKED BY REVOLT Witman Tells of Wonderful Natural Resources of Interior of Sonora Agricultural and mineral resources that you have dreamed of but never hoped to see are told about by A. H. Witman who was back in Anaheim today after an 11-day trip that took him 450 miles south of the Mexican border and 150 miles into the interior along the Yaqui river country. Witman made the trip with J. L. Shepherd. Anaheim man who has rich mining interests in Sonora. With guide, cook, etc., on horseback they rode four days along mesquite lined trails, visiting Indian villages where a white man hadn't been seen for nine years. Some of these villages which formerly had 2000 to 4000 population now have only a dozen or so families, showing the inroads of the revolution upon the man power of the country. Women and children are, of course, vastly in the majority. Fifth Feature Besides Other Big Attractions Manager W. H. Johnston, of the Stewart Fruit Co. today informed Romaine Berger, chairman of the Citrus Exhibits committee, word has been received from his headquarters, that recognition will be given the California Valencia Orange Show in the shape of a fine feature exhibit, to make one of the most striking units of decoration at the big show. This makes the fifth large distributing company which has taken feature exhibit space, and, besides other attractions, not forgetting to mention the model packing unit, which is to be used during the whole time of the exposition, nearly filling the feature spaces drawn in the plan. Each feature will be different. Some of the plans confided to officers of the show indicate that originality, artistry and indifference to expense will be the governing factors in their equipment. "There will be no heavy trucks, engines and other ponderous matter in the California Valencia show," declared Chairman Herman Stern this morning. We are confirming.

Shopherd, Anaheim man who has rich mining interests in Sonora. With guide, cook, etc., on horseback they rode four days along mesquite lined trails, visiting Indian villages where a white man hadn't been seen for nine years. Some of these villages which formerly had 2000 to 4000 population now have only a dozen or so families, showing the inroads of the revolution upon the man power of the country. Women and children are, of course, easily in the majority. Witman says that everywhere they went they were greeted hospitably. "The people are tired of fighting and if you pay attention to your own business you are as safe as at home," says Witman. "They will greet with open arms fair-minded businesses with capital for the development of the country. They want to be employed at wages. There is now great poverty in this land of untold opportunities. The tragedy of the country, of course, is the fact there is no middle class. There is the peon class living in hovels and the grafting, official class. Despite their reverses due to the revolution, Americans having interests there are as hopeful as ever, knowing they have the resources to justify their hopes and believing that the present law and order will continue so that they can soon pile up new fortunes. "A great many people are now going into Mexico, the Pullman accommodations being taxed to the limit with agents and capitalist intent upon development of trade or mining or agricultural resources of one kind or another." "Oregon is greatly respected by the Indians as he had always treated them fairly. He has also made a big hit with many of them by making them a part of their national army and detachments are policing in the most thorny fashion that was ever done there some of the principal cities of Mexico. We went through a hunter's paradise. In three shots I got two deer from horseback. At one time I saw 36 deer within 100 yards. I have a kodak picture of nine in one bunch. "We rode for days where the mountains as far as we could see were oxidized, showing the richness of the mineral resources. "On horseback the natural grass feed reached our shoulders and swept away before the wind like ocean waves. This despite it is the dry season there. "I brot back a chunk of ore, a gunny sackful of which would be worth $25,000. Before they had to leave because of the revolt, $3,500,000 was taken in a few cartoons of this ore by men who are numbered now as some of the richest in Los Angeles. "I have here a sack containing one pound of gold in nuggets up to the size of a pea washed from streams by Indiana when they weren't too tired to work." Accusing Witness Is MASS MEETING OF BUENA PARK CENTER There will be a mass meeting of all ranchers of the Buena Park district in the Buena Park school house on Monday evening at 7:30 under the auspices of the Buena Park Farm Center. A special feature of the evening will be the address of Mr. A. L. Loveace, state organization manager of the California Farm Bureau Federation who will talk regarding the state Farm Bureau work in California and the United States. Mr. Loveace will spend two weeks in Orange county, working with the farm centers in promotion work, and is very desirous of meeting as many ranchers as possible.

CONGRESS FIGHT TO RETURN WINES NEAR WASHINGTON, April 15—The battle to bring back beer and light wines will be fought to a finish in this congress, it was declared today by both wets and dryes. The fight will come to a head in the house as soon as the tariff and taxation program can be cleared aside. Preliminary preparations for the clash were commenced today by the drys, whose rakes were bomb-shelled by a new member from Maryland. Representative John Phillip Hill of Baltimore, who unexpectedly tossed in a bill to repeal the Volstead act. Representative Volstead accepted Hill's challenge. He is chairman of the judiciary committee that will report on the repeal bill. He made it "A briot back a chunk of ore, a gunny sackful of which would be worth $25,000. Before they had to leave because of the revolt, $3,500,000 was taken in a few carloads of this ore by men who are numbered now as some of the richest in Los Angeles. "I have here a sack containing one pound of gold in nuggets up to the size of a pea washed from streams by Indiana when they weren't too tired to work." Aecusing Witness Is Quizzed by Rogers The 18-year-old granddaughter, accusing witness, of Gottlieb Meger, 70, wealthy Anaheim rancher, was on the stand this morning and was subjected to an extended cross-examination by Atty. Earl Rogers of the defense counsel. Rogers pressed her upon the point of whether she had conferred with her father before the suit was filed. She admitted conferring with her father on the civil action for $37,000. It was necessary to adjourn the hearing several times today while the aged and feeble defendant retired to rest.

BACK FROM CHINA, WILL SPEAK SUNDAY At the Salem Evangelical Church CHICAGO, April 15.—Two of the most daring holdups ever staged in Illinois resulted today in train robbers getting away with $368,000 worth of Liberty bonds and negotiable checks in one section of this city. While one bandit was being killed, two wounded and another captured when an attempt was made to loot the Cicero State Bank at Cicero, a Chicago suburb. Six armed men entered the bank at Cicero with drawn revolvers. They herded Cashier S. B. Witkowski and five bank employees into the vault. Then they scooped several thousand dollars in cash after bills from the tray near the "paying" window and started to make their getaway. But they did not know that Witkowski kept an extra revolver in the bank vault for just such an emergency as this. Arming himself with this weapon he dashed from the vault and attacked the robbers single handed. Witkowski is an expert pistol shot and in the running battle that followed he shot one of the robbers dead, wounded two others and captured a fourth. Two of the outlaws escaped, but all of the money was recovered. Witkowski escaped without a scratch. The train holdup took place inside the Chicago city limits. One passenger on the train was shot at, but no one was injured. The bandits got away with checks and Liberty bonds valued at $263,000. Three messengers left the clearing house at 9 a.m. to carry the checks to outlying banks. They boarded an Illinois Central suburban train at Van Buren St., planning to go first to the Woodlawn Trust Co. Four bandits, who apparently had followed them from the clearing house office, boarded the train immediately after the messengers. When the train reached Twentleth St. all four bandits pulled revolvers, two covering the five passengers and the other two covering the messengers.

At the very hour when Premier Lloyd George was announcing in parliament that the miners were adamant and when the government prepared to meet the greatest strike in the history of the kingdom, called for 10 o'clock tonight, the triple alliance, after a story session, cancelled it. The rail men and transport workers, unable to pacify the radical wing of the miners' federation, abandoned the miners' cause.

Walter Moore, secretary of the Locomotive Engineers union, made this statement to the international News Service: "The decision of the triple alliance against a strike was brot about by the refusal of the majority of the miners' executive body to negotiate along the lines which Frank Hodges (miners' head) indicated last night.
