TELLS FIGURES ON LEMON SHIPMENTS Orange shipments from California for the citrus year starting Nov. 1, 1920, at this time are in excess of the record to this date in 1918, 1919 and 1920; and lemon shipments are less than those of 1920 by nearly half, 123 carloads less than in 1918 and nearly double those of 1918, according to figures announced today by George Shattuck, manager of the Golden West Citrus association, Tustin. Orange shipments for this season to date total 34,741 cars, as against 14,109 to this date in 1918, 29,947 in 1919 and 27,891 in 1920. The shipments include navels and valencias, the latter going into market about May 1. The number of carloads of lemons shipped this year to data does not compare so favorably with records for 1920 and 1919, but the market situation is better so far as competition with foreign growers of lemons is concerned. Where the California shippers today face competition of only 68,000 boxes of foreign lemons, this date in 1920 there were 202,400 boxes of foreign fruit on the market, 179,300 boxes in 1919, 237,350 boxes in 1918, 182,400 boxes in 1917, 147,000 boxes in 1915 and 241,700 boxes in 1915. Shippings of lemons from California to date total 7076 cars, while the total to this date in 1920 was 1507. In 1919 it was 7189 and in 1918 it was 3885 cars. Prices on lemons for the past few weeks have been very satisfactory and will make it possible for the growers to receive an average return that will encourage them in the industry. Hundreds of boxes of lemons were dumped in creek beds during the early part of the fruit year, when there was no demand for the fruits and it could not be sold at any price.

SANTA ANA COUNCIL STOPS PAVING JOB With the sub-grade accepted on part of the street and gravel delivered on one block ready for paying operations, paying on South Ross-st, Santa Ana, by Wells and Bressler, has been halted by action of Santa Ana city council. The suspension order was issued following a complaint by Mrs. H. M. Doolittle, who resides at the south-west corner of Pine and Ross, that she had not signed a contract for work in front of her property and that she would have to sell her home at a sacrifice if arrangements could not be made so that she could make small payments instead of having to pay the costs in a lump sum. The councilmen declared that when they issued a permit for the work on the street it was done with the understanding that the owners of 100 per cent of the frontage in the blocks to be improved had signed or would sign a private contract for the work. According to Mrs. Doolittle, there are others on the street who did not sign the contract. She said that she did not object to the paying, but that she did not want to be forced to pay spot cash, and wanted to know if there was not some way by which she could have time in which to make payment without resorting to placing a mortgage on her home. Declaring that this is another instance of the fallacy of paving by private contract instead of under improvement proceedings, Councilman J. W. Tubbs moved that Street Superintendent Edward Dahl notify the contractors to halt the work until they can show the council a contract signed by owners of all the frontage or until the arrangements may be made that will be satisfactory to all parties concerned.

Editor Plain Dealer: I just noticed in the Los Angeles Examiner, in big headlines, the following: "Big Navy Bill Defent Menaces America, U.S. Slash of Sea Power Aid to Foes." This has been the cry of the big manufacturers of ships and navy supplies. Those big interests we are told by those who claim they know, own or control a great many newspapers and magazines. They keep up the war jingo and refer to our "foes" at every opportunity. I think the people of the United States and other countries have been bled long enough for these destructive purposes—just to add to the millions already accumulated by those big interests, those war profiteers—"patriots," they call themselves. I am willing to admit that the time has not yet come when we can stop altogether. I hope it is coming however. But I am sure the time is ripe for a move in the direction of disarmament. Who are our foes? We haven't any. Of course, Japan may not like us very well, but she prefers friendship and expresses a sincere willingness to join us and other great powers in the matter of disarmament. Her sea power is far below that of the United States, and her people have been taxed to the limit to keep it up. Japan is heartily in sympathy with the doctrine of disarmament. She knows that her resources are altogether inadequate to keep pace with us in that respect, if we desired to force the issue. Our "patriots" would have us force the issue. The House appropriated over $500,000,000 for the navy; the Senate added $100,000,000. Then the bill went to conference, and $18,000,000 increase was agreed to. Now, the Los Angeles Examiner and other "patriotic" newspapers are making a remonstrance, as though some $570,000,000 appropriation is entirely inadequate. What a blessing it would be to the crippled and sick soldier boys if one-fourth of that sum were appropriated for their relief. But no, "we have too many burdens just now" to permit of such aid to the boys. Yours for the general welfare, —OBSERVER S. F. ORIENTAL CABLE PLANS ARE ON FILE WASHINGTON, June 24—Plans for a communication cable from San Francisco to Japan and China have been filed with the state department by the Commercial Pacific Cable Co. It is understood that the investment will cost between $25,000,000 and $30,000,000 and will be about 6000 miles in length. FAKE FIGHT TICKETS BRING ARREST OF 8 NEW YORK, June 24—Eight men were under arrest here today in connection with an alleged plot to manufacture and sell thousands of dollars' worth of spurious tickets to the Dempsey-Carpentier fight. They were charged with grand larceny, forgery and counterfeiting. UNDECIDED ON H. S. PLANS Trustees of the Orange union high school district were still undecided today on definite plans for the new buildings to be added to the high school plant under the $160,000 bond issue recently voted. Plans were discussed at a meeting of the board late yesterday afternoon but, owing to the fact that a full membership was not present, definite action in selection was deferred. STRAWBERRY SHERBET One quart ripe bulled berries. One and one-fourth cups sugar. One cup water. Three-fourths tablespoon lemon juice. White one egg. Cover the berries with the sugar and let stand for one hour, then crush and squeeze them thru double thickness of cheesecloth. There should be about one pint of sweetened juice. To this add the water, lemon juice, and freeze the sherbet in the usual way. After it is frozen remove the dasher, stir in the well-beaten egg white, pack with salt and ice, and allow the sherbet to stand a while before serving. THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA SINN FEINERS KILL 40 KING'S GUARDS LONDON, June 24.—Forty British soldiers of the military escort of King George while he was in Belfast are reported to have been killed in the wreck of a troop train by Sinn Feiners said a Central News dispatch from Belfast this afternoon. Many others were injured. The last of a string of three troop trains was bombed and derailed. The Sinn Feiners cut the telegraph wires and isolated the scene of the wreck. The plotters picked a time when thousands of soldiers drawn to Belfast to guard the king and queen during the opening of parliament were being returned to their camps. The first two trains went thru in safety. Apparently the mine exploded after their passage tearing out sections of the rails. The third train pushed into the opening and was partly wrecked, many soldiers being killed instantly. Efforts that Eamonn de Valera, president of the Irish republic had been arrested in Ireland, but subsequently released, were officially confirmed by the Irish office today. property for oil developments. It was said that geologists had been quietly studying the district in the west part of the city and in the river district. Investigations so far made have convinced the experts that there is possibilities of developing oil in paying quantities, according to reports. A Want Ad in the Plain Dealer will Bring Results. FISHING JOB HOLDS UP LAGUNA DRILLERS Fishermen at Laguna Beach haven't anything on the crew that is drilling for oil on the Laguna lease of the Laguna Beach Mutual Oil Co. The crew today was doing a little fishing itself — fishing for a bit that has been lost in the hole. The drillers were fishing at a greater depth on land than are the fishermen who today were dangling lines in the briny deep. The oil hole is down 2450 feet and the workmen are following the usual procedure of trying to grab more or less by chance, the missing tool. Those interested in the company are satisfied with developments and art sanguine of bringing in a producer. Ten-inch casing has been set and the water has been shut off. The water shut-off has been pronounced successful by a representative of the state commission who visited the well this week. Drillers report that formations so far encountered conform to the expectation of geologists. Oil sands are expected to be encountered within the next 400 or 500 feet, it is said. To well is located about one and a half miles from the beach and all accrease in the vicinity of it is under lease, it is stated. Land close to the town site is being sought under leases, according to reports.
