ORDINANCE IS READ FOR BOND ELECTION An ordinance calling a special election for Thursday, July 23, to vote on the question of a bond issue for the rebuilding of the city’s kater system, was introduced by Albert Launer, city attorney, and given the first reading before the meeting of the Fullerton board of trustees last night. Rollin A. Marsden, the only trustee who voted against the calling of the election for this purpose because of the additional reservoir it provides which he says is useless expenditure of funds, suggested that the date of election be set for Friday, July 13. He was overruled. The ordinance calls for a bond issue of $283,000 out of which the city’s entire water system will be rebuilt, as well as a new reservoir. An ordinance regulating the keeping of gasoline, which is a fire hazard, passed the last reading and was adopted. FULLERTON B. OF T. GETS $300 ADV.

POWELL Members of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Assn., who, to the number of several hundred, dedicated their fine new packing house in West Anaheim yesterday with a feast served under the able direction of the veteran chef, Mr. George Mills, were still discussing today the far-reaching address made them by G. Harold Powell, head of the Calif. Fruit Exchange. "They say you have the finest packing house in the state now," declared Powell. "I will not disagree with them." Powell went into the fruit business in a manner most entertaining to the assembled growers. He could see little of relief in the way of reduced freight rates. Even if the railways consented to a rate reduction, Powell doubted if the interstate commerce commission would consent to it. The basis for the fixing of rates is the net of congress guaranteeing all roads 6 per cent of their replacement value. This includes many boom roads which never did pay. The last freight advance went into effect at the time the reconstruction period set in and the added load to shippers, if anything, helped to slow up business so that instead of insuring the 6 per cent the roads are as far away from it now as they were before the rate advance. Neither did Powell appear overly enthusiastic over possibility of any extensive relief from ocean shipments any time soon. That cannot come to pass until the exchange can guarantee a steamship line a certain amount of tonnage for a stated number of years in order to warrant the building of new boats or remodeling of old with refrigerator equipment. There will be considerable lemons shipped under ventilation but no great amount of oranges which require refrigerator space as the ships now available have little more than enough refrigerator space to care for needed food perishables consumed enroute. The freight advance and other ANAHEIM ROTARY CLUB IS PRESENTED WITH CHARTER (Continued from first page) from membership. In his remarks the governor stated that Santa Ana led the 23rd district by $$ per sent membership thus far this year. The governor then touched upon the keynote of the Rotarians Service: "There are three kinds of service. Forced, paid and volunteer, the type of service I wish to dwell on as representative of the Rotarians." Then he went into the principles of service exemplified by the Rotarians, but suggested that the Rotarians not take the work that logically belongs to other organizations, but to be a power back of these other channels of service.

ENTERTAINMENT AT FREMONT SCHOOL On Friday evening of this week there will be an entertainment in the auditorium of the Fremont school to raise funds for the playground and music departments. Mrs. Winifred Roberts Worthy, one of the well known entertainers of So. Calif., will give readings, and Miss Owens' music department of the schools will furnish fusic. The program will be worth more than twice the price of admission which is 25 cents for any time soon. That cannot come to pass until the exchange can guarantee a steamship line a certain amount of tonnage for a stated number of years in order to warrant the building of new boats or remodeling of old with refrigerator equipment. There will be considerable lemons shipped under ventilation but no great amount of oranges which require refrigerator space as the ships now available have little more than enough refrigerator space to care for needed food perishables consumed enroute. The freight advance and other increased costs must come out of the profit of the producer, asserted Powell, as is the case with all perishable products which must be sold at whatever the market offers when they reach the market. Such increased expenses cannot be added to the selling price. However, Powell did not appear pessimistic over the future of the industry. "When there were produced but 5000 cars of citrus fruit a year in Calif., there was talk of over-production. Now with 60,000 there appears to be no more over-production than then. "We have quit attempting to say when there will be an over-production of citrus fruits," declared Powell. He brought another ray of hope when he stated that there were only two branches of agriculture which have stood up in the face of declining markets. These are the citrus and walnut industries. Whereas all agricultural products in the past have been handled by professional buyers, most of them working out of great eastern cities, the whole buying system has broken down as bankers will no longer back them up. Formerly, a broker would order ten cars of walnuts, all he thought he could handle in a season. Now he may be able to finance the purchase of but ten sacks at a time. However, the walnut association was able to finance itself and gives the jobber ten sacks now and ten more whenever he wants them. As the result, the walnut crop has been entirely sold. The same thing is being done by the Calif. Fruit Exchange. "We are breaking up a car into as small consignments as the buyer desires, and the fruit is going on the market despite the big crop," declared Powell.
