THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER An Independent Newspaper, Issued Every Afternoon By Sunday. R. W. BERNEST, Manager. PAUL W. HESTER, Editor Subscription rate—In No. Orange-co: Per year, 12; six months, 1125. Entered at the Postoffice at Arnheim, Calif., as second class matter. DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS Sweet to the soul the whispering Of hope and promise, when Fancy's soft fairy volce sing— We part to meet again!—Anonymous. Honesty should be the keystone of the arch of character. Let no one undermine your veneration for the American Flag. Symptoms of the Fourth of July already are heard in the land, proceeding from the small boy and his firecracker. The American Red Cross is doing itself proud at Pueblo, as it does wherever it essays to relieve suffering in the wake of disaster. Perhaps Roy Gardner could be tured into prison by putting a mail car full of registered letters inside. That might induce him to break in. The fly you fall to swat today soon will become the progenitor of a great tribe of files. Swat the fly without delay and cut off its progeny! There is one very sweet, romantic question which Mr. Edison did not include in his list. These June brides have board it, and because of it they are brides. California would do well to try for both the republican and democratic conventions in 1924. There would be a greater probability of getting one of them. And there is possibility of getting both of them. Inasmuch as Europe, for a long period to come, must be America's best market, it behooves this country to co-operate in every may it may, without being officiously meddlesome, in restoring the economic normal on the other side of the Atlantic. The extent to which automotive vehicles and implements have entered into normal activities in this country is a phenomenon of the age. The greatest industry in the world has developed within a few years. American genius, resourcefulness and industrial daring have scored new high water marks. The Pacific West has a boon in the rates given this section, the greater the impetus to industrial development here and, consequently an increased volume of traffic for the carriers. FINANCIERS PLAN HELP TOWARD NORMALITY The great private moneyed interests of the United States have agreed to cooperate with the Federal Treasury in international financial transactions. Very significant, in particular, is the pledge by these great interests not to encourage or to handle international financing which is aroused upon by the United States government. This, it is pointed out, means that private bankers in this country with international connections will not finance governments for the purpose of war or unrest in Europe and will follow the general policy of restoration and reconstruction developed by the national government and proclaimed thru the treasury department. This development is of stupendous importance. Faithfully adhered to, it should contribute vastly to the return of normal conditions abroad. Per contra, it should be effectually discouraging to the forces and elements which would incite wars and foment demoralizing and destructive tumult in foreign lands. Realization, in Europe, that the government of the United States and its colossal financial interests will cooperate for the restoration of peace and economic normality, but will look with disfavor upon and fill refuse to aid needless, unjustifiable wars and breedings of violence, discord and reaction, should help mightily toward stabilizing conditions over there.

The greatest industry in the world has developed within a few years. American genius, resourcefulness and industrial daring have scored new high water marks. The Pacific West has a boon in the water route for shipment of its horticultural, agricultural and other products to the east and to Europe by way of the Panama canal. The fact that the possibilities of this mode of transportation are being developed is very encouraging and promises substantial benefit to this section. It should not be deemed humiliating to the slister republic for the Obregon government to give its word that American and their interests in Mexico will be treated fairly. It is too much to expect this country to assume that interests of Americans will be dealt with justly, because many times in the last few years, they have been outrageously maltreated, despite the solemn pledges from the City of Mexico. Mexico knows the terms upon which it can obtain friendly recognition from the Washingtonongovernment. President Obregon undoubtedly would accede readily to the terms of the Washington government were it not that he is apprehensive, lest his own people feel that he were betraying them. But he may be sagacious enough to find a way. He realizes the United States has none but the friendliest intentions toward Mexico. The next time they send Roy Gardner, the bandit, to prison, it might be safer to put him in the charge of deputies. Let him shackle them and undertake to deliver them to the war-don of the prison. There might be some hope of them arriving at the prison. That Gardner was not better guarded is not any ridiculous, but secondalous. The public should be better protected against outlaws than this. Such laxness and stupidity give heart to desperate acts. AMERICA'S BIG MARKET IN EUROPE That full economic recovery in the United States is dependent, in large measure, upon the economic rehabilitation of Europe is the opinion of experts, one of whom is Archer Wall Douglas, of the United States Chamber of Commerce. Europe is now, and for a long time will be, the best market for America's surplus products, these experts hold. behave the government and people of the United States to cultivate European market; to cooperate—insofar as this may be done without becoming entangled in the domestic affairs of Europe—for the restoration of the economic normal overcrowds, and particularly to cord and reaction, should help mightily toward stabilizing conditions over there. NEW YORK, June 15.—Occasionally a crook has a sense of humor and—what is more unusual—takes a chance by expressing it. Card sharps are once more in evidence on the incoming transatlantic steamers, and a pair of particularly successful ones arrived here on a big liner the other day, according to Pier Detective Edward Mallon. Both were under fictitious names on the "additional" list of passengers printed after the ship leaves port. It was one of these who let him numerous side show itself. For he chose to belisted under the name of B. Ware. Paper hats are the latest Paris fad to crop up in this city, and they are rapidly becoming popular. The paper is generally bright pink, or purple and is usually braided to the shape of the head. To withstand the rain, it is woxed, and waxed flowers are used for trimming. I wonder if this is the only city in this whole wide land, where anyone has had the nerve or the sufficiently strong instinct for "show" to rent a corsage bouquet! An aimable florist mentioned it the other day as a customer left his shop. "That girl comes in almost every day and rents a bouquet," he said. "Just SAID ON CAP." TWO OPERA SANTA FE Only two companies at Santa Fe Springs ed and Union. At B the Amalgamated progress on a fish feet.

American interests have become intertwined so inextricably with other world interests that this country cannot afford to be indifferent to economic conditions in Europe and in other parts of the earth. Let Europe be paralyzed economically, and America's best market is ruined, for the time being. This country produces much more than it consumes. It has a gigantic surplus of soil products and of manufactures. It must have ready and remunerative markets for these commodities abroad, or else suffer greatly in its economic life. SHIPPING BY WATER IS TO BE DEVELOPED It is hardly to be expected that the railroads or the water routes, either of them, can effect a monopoly on the carrying of products of the Pacific West to Eastern markets. Ideally, the two means of transportation should be used, each supplementing the other. There is business enough for both rail and water routes. With both of them maintained in the highest state of carrier efficiency, the volume of business would increase greatly, without doubt. For excellent transportation facilities at reasonable rates, would conduce to the development and expansion of productive industries throughout the Pacific West. The industrial progress and welfare of this section must not be thrrottied by untoward transportation rates or conditions. The best is none too good. It would be well for commercial and civic organizations thru-out the West to keep impressing upon transportation managers the fact that interests of this section and of the common carriers are mutual; that the better the service and the fairer THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA A regular shooting gallery and rifle range has been set up in the basement of the Brooklyn Savings Bank, and women employees as well as men are being taught to hit the mark. A recent robbery inspired the innovation. Are musical comedies to hold a smaller place in our theatrical program next season? When Charles Dillingham, whose name has always meant first, of course, the Hippodrome, then choruses, dances and tuneful lovers, turns to serious plays there must be some significance in it. "Two Blocks Away" which he has just put on is a drama of character study, and "The Scarlet Man" and The Wise Child" will follow in a week or so. It's at least an interesting departure, and those who have seen the rehearsals of the two as yet unproduced agree that, along with "Two Blocks Away," they will add definitely to the Dillingham reputation as a producer. It didn't create much comment taking the bright toy balloons away from the youngsters—except among the deprived youngsters. Now we've grown so accustomed to them that a motorist who drives around town without one floating from each end of his windshield is rather conspicuous. But soap bubbles! It does seem as though we must be having a reaction from serious affairs with a vengeance. The craze for blowing bubbles has seized an entire square of perfectly normal adults in a prosperous section of Brooklyn, and every evening after dinner, you may see the distilled heads of families leaning out of the window, clay pipes in hand, competing with each other in bubble-blowing. Every family in the block has at least three bubble-pipes according to report. Some of us, however, still go in for serious amusements. A big moving van was parked against the curb of a cross-street the other day at the rental." PATRONS ASKED TO HELP "HUMANIZE" POSTOFFICE DEPT. "Mail early and often" is the slogan adopted by the new post-office administration under Postmaster-General Will H. Hays. The above slogan is along the lines of "humanizing" the service and bringing about a higher state of efficiency. "Humanizing" the service, you remember, is the term used by the new postmaster general in one of his first official utterances, and it struck a responsive cord in the hearts of the vast army of postal employees, numbering more than a quarter of a million men and women. Humanization and efficiency are two elements, apparently as far removed from each other as the north pole is from the south pole. Efficiency sounds hard, unrelenting and uncompromising, whereas humanization appeals to the heart and expresses tenderness. How is Postmaster-General Hays going to maintain efficiency by humanizing the service? It has been demonstrated time and again by employers of large numbers, that human treatment of employees brings results in efficiency, whereas sweatshop treatment brings about inefficiency and discontent. Uncle Sam is the largest employer in the world and he is trying to humanize the postal service and make it more efficient. To bring this about, it is necessary to have the co-operation o fthe public. Uncle Sam is the fellow on the outside of the wicket looking in and his servant is the man or woman within, looking out. You and I, dear reader, who are on the outside of the wicket looking in and demanding service, real efficient service, are Uncle Sam. We demand efficiency from the fellow inside, we want service, and still, we forget that we are largely responsible for the efficiency of the service. We fail to humanize it. Postmaster General Hays wants to humanize the service, but he cannot do it without you and I lending a helping hand. But now, you ask in astonishment: Is there anything that... bubbles has seized an entire square of perfectly normal adults in a prosperous section of Brooklyn, and every evening after dinner, you may see the diffused heads of families leaning out of the window, clay pipes in hand, competing with each other in bubble-blowing. Every family in the block has at least three bubble-pipes, according to report. Some of us, however, still go in for serious amusements. A big moving van was parked against the curb of a cross-street the other day at the moon hour. The driver and his helper emerged from a little quick lunch place around the corner, dived into the van and brought out a mysterious looking box. Then they sat themselves down on the steps of an apartment house, unfolded what proved to be a chess-board, set out the pieces and plunged into the game. It was hardly one of those games of long-studied silences. The hour didn't allow for that. The one o'clock whistle blew somewhere, the driver jumped up, swept the pieces and the board into their box, and he and his partner were on their way. TWO OPERATING AT SANTA FE SPRINGS Santa Fe Springs Only two companies are operating at Santa Fe Springs, the Amalgamated and Union, At Butterworth No. 1 the Amalgamated is making some progress on a fishing job at 3900 feet. The Union has three wells drilling. Meyer No. 4 is in a coarse sand at 4050, necessitating a heavy pudding up of the hole. Meyer No. 5 is drilling in hard sand at 3775. Bell No. 1 is in hard shell, going slow. Postmaster General Hays wants to humanize the service, but he cannot do it without you and I lending a helping hand. But how, you ask in astonishment. Is there anything that can do to help matters? Yes, my friends, you and I can do a great deal. There are about 13 million pieces of mail sent to the dead letter office every year, just because the sender failed to write his own address on the left hand corner of the envelope, so the letter would return to him, in case it could not be delivered. There are a good many reasons why a letter or a porcelain farts of delivery and causes Uncle Sam's servants a peck of troubles before this particular letter or parcel finally lands in the dead letter branch of the postal service. Here are a few things you and I should do in order to humanize the postal service and obtain efficiency; remember these: 1. Address your mail to street and number, R. F. D. or P. O. box. 2. Have your return address on each letter or parcel you send. 3. Have your own mail addressed to street and number, R. F. D. or post office box or general delivery, as the case may be. 4. Register all valuable mail. 5. Send no currency in letters, but use money orders instead. 6. Mail early and often. THE PRINCE STOR ANAHEIM Corner of Center and Lemon Sts.
