DAILY GREETING TO READERS Eternal Hope! When yonder spheres surlime Pealed their first notes to sound the march of time, Thy joyous youth began, but not to fade, When all thy sister planets had decayed— When wrapt in flames the clouds of ether glow, And heaven's last thunder shakes the world below, Thou, undismayed, shalt o'er the smile, And light thy torch at nature's funeral pile! — Campbell. AMERICAN SHIPPING IS OFFERED HOPE The United States Shipping Board is effecting a reorganization of the operating heads and forces of the American merchantile marine which seems to offer excellent results. The Emergency Fleet Corporation has been revived and three expert shipping men are selected as vice-presidents to have charge of the different phases of operating, allocating and loading vessels under control of the Shipping Board. A. J. Frey of Los Angeles is to be vice-president in charge of physical operation of all Shipping Board vessels. The appointment of Mr. Frey to this important post augurs well for the success of the enterprise designed to rehabilitate the nation's merchant marine. The three vice presidents just chosen are to be given free hand, says Chairman Lasker of the Shipping Board. And they have the assurance of the board and of President Harding "that there will be no political interference of any nature." It is hoped that Shipping Board affairs will be revitalized under the energetic, capable management of these experts. The country has suffered disastrous losses in connection with its merchant shipping, during ALLEGED MISTREATMENT OF DISABLED HEROES There has been and is scandalous mistreatment of disabled World War service men. This assertion is not based upon irresponsible rumors, but upon well corroborated evidence given before the senate's investigating committee. In hospitals and in quarters where these valiant men are supposed to be cared for well under government auspices, there are flagrant abuses, lack of proper treatment and heartless lack of proper "human touch," so essential to the enheartening of men who have suffered and are suffering so much. President Harding is trying to get the whole truth. It is fair to assume that, with all the truth ascertained put before him, the President will inaugurate a shakeup that should correct these insufferable maltreatments of men who should have the tenderest and best care at the hands of government agencies. BRITAIN AND FRANCE IN ACCORD WITH U.S. The hearty alacrity with which the respective governments of Great Britain and France accept the invitation of President Harding, in behalf of the United States, to confer on Pacific and Far Eastern problems and on disarmament is inspiringly significant. President Harding has struck a chord which is meeting with sympathetic response from all parts of the world. It is vibrant with the melodious melody of peace. Premier Lloyd George will come as one of Britain's representatives to the historic conference. France, Italy and Japan will send distinguished men. It will be a meeting of eminent such as the world seldom has seen. It easily may develop into one of the How would you give individual credit to 45,000 rose bushes?

Billings. post augurs well for the success of the enterprise designed to rehabilitate the nation's merchant marine. The three vice presidents just chosen are to be given free hand, says Chairman Lasker of the Shipping Board. And they have the assurance of the board and of President Harding "that there will be no political interference of any nature." It is hoped that Shipping Board affairs will be revitalized under the energetic, capable management of these experts. The country has suffered disastrous losses in connection with its merchant shipping, during the crucial World War period and since. Let it be hoped that the tie can be and will be turned toward profitable operation of this array of ships and that from this nucleus a mighty merchant navy may be evolved under the American Flag. SMALLER WHEAT CROP IS FORECAST So wide is the territorial area embraced in America's "wheat belt," and so uncertain are meteorologic conditions in that territory, forecasting of the yield of a great crop like wheat is attended with much indefiniteness. It develops, for example, that because of untoward climatic conditions during May, the winter wheat yield will fall some 50,000-1000 bushels below the estimate. But, even so, the total combined yield of winter and spring wheat will be in excess of last year's crop. Winter wheat estimate is 578,000,000 bushels; spring wheat 251,000,000. While this year's production will not break the high record, yet it is sufficiently huge to be impressive. It assures abundance for providing bread for American tables, with a goodly surplus for export. The American farmer once again has done well by his country and by the world, as well as by himself. RUSSIA FACES FUTURE OF GREATNESS Russia will be the loading power of Europe, fifty years hence, politically and culturally—mayhap militarily — according to sturdious observers of current events. The great white bear is coming out of its hibernation. The World war tossed Russia about on an uncertain sea and left it in the chaos which brot Bolshevism to the fore. But the Bolshevist domination will pass, in time. Russia will be regenerated and reconstructed, politically, socially and economically. Russia, per se, never has been dominant in European affairs. In the family of nations, it has been like a great, overgrown child. Its voice has been potent only when joined with the voice of other powers—powers of Western Europe. Japan defeated it because of its corrupt and inefficient political and military leadership. Its record in the World War was not particularly brilliant, although it did some valiant and effective fighting. For the most part, it has been tossed about like rock up of President Harding. In behalf of the United States, to confer on Pacific and Far Eastern problems and on disarmament is inspiringly significant. President Harding has struck a chord which is meeting with sympathetic response from all parts of the world. It is vibrant with the mellificous melody of peace. Premier Lloyd George will come as one of Britain's representatives to the historic conference. France, Italy and Japan will send distinguished men. It will be a meeting of eminents such as the world seldom has seen. It easily may develop into one of the most momentous conferences of this historic century. From it may come the nucleus for an association of nations to preserve peace with justice over all the earth. Other nations may join are the confessors assemble. A just amicable and all-around acceptable bacontroverses in the Far East. And sis may be found for settlement of tangible results may be attained in furtherance of practicable and substantial disarmament. Under the American Flag there should be developed a merchant may outdistancing any other in the world. The magnificent opportunity lies before this nation to develop prodigiously along this line and to add enormously to the nation's wealth and prosperity. It is to be hoped that the Harding administration soon may evolve definite and acceptable plans for an association of nations for the preservation of the peace of the world; This movement should not be ignored or delayed. There is nothing in all the world more important than this. Pueblo is rising from the debris of its ruins and will be a greater city, with scientific flood control as a guarantee of safety in future. Science and pluck and enterprise have made Galveston and Dayton immune to destructive floods. Pueblo, it is indicated, will follow in their footsteps. California is not trying to antagonize Japan or to breed trouble with that country. Its efforts to protect itself against Japanese land ownership and against influx of the Japanese are not designed to provoke serious trouble with Japan, but are intended to give protection that this state should have and must have, if the white man's civilization is to survive here. Even the intelligent alert California is hard put to tell, offhand in just how many things this state excels all other states, as to resources or volume of production. California is "first" in many things and, best of all, is first in the hearts of multitudes of tourists and transient residents who plan to become sometime, permanent residents.

Russia, per se, never has been dominant in European affairs. In the family of nations, it has been like a great, overgrown child. Its voice has been potent only when joined with the voice of other powers—powers of Western Europe. Japan defeated it because of its corrupt and inefficient political and military leadership. Its record in the World War was not particularly brilliant, although it did some valiant and effective fighting. For the most part, it has been tossed about like cork upon a whirpool. But a great empire with a virile population so numerous as Russia has, with almost inconceivably vast natural resources and lying with stragetic advantage on the may of the world—such an empire is bound to have its dominating day. It freely is predicted by expert observers that Russia's "day" is not far off that it will throw off the shackles YES Sodas.

California is "first" in many things and, best of all, is first in the hearts of multitudes of tourists and transient residents who plan to become sometime, permanent residents. This nation, be it remembered, is what people make it. It was started right by the fathers and has been brot down thru generations of glorious history. But the U.S. of today is what the people of today make it. It cannot borrow the glory of the past and live in that borrowed glory.

The Village Gossip How would you like the task of giving individual care and attention to 45,000 rose bushes? Would you have the patience to nurse each one day by day, safeguard against mildew, red spiders and other enemies of the daisy bushes, scarcely six inches high? Could you carefully tie each of the 45,000 bushes to five-foot stakes, keep a huge greenhouse at the proper temperature and yet at the same time provide as much ventilation as possible without letting a single one of the plants "catch cold?" Besides a score of other important things, that is just what Ernest C. Amling is doing in his cultivation of extra fine roses at the big greenhouse he has just completed on West Fifth-st, Santa Ana. Amling can do all those things because he says he knows and understands roses better than anything else in the world. He has just entered the wholesale field here with his brother, Paul F. Amling, who will arrive tomorrow from Chicago, where they own and operate a large greenhouse. By the middle of September, Amling says, he will see more roses than anything else, because his 45,000 plants will be in full bloom by that time and Santa Ana grown roses will be shipped to all parts of So. Calif. to be put in many different flower shops. Line Amling brothers have ten and a half acres of ground on West Fifth which gives them room to triple their plant if they see fit. Five greenhouses, each 400 feet long and 40 feet wide, are now completed and are filled with long benches of rose plants. The houses are of pipe frame construction. The rafters and gutters are of wood and the side walls are concrete, but the rest is epithely of glass, of which 100,000 square feet were used in construction. The houses are of the newest design and were erected by the American Greenhouse Co., Chicago. C. G. Billings, 1000 E. Broadway, MUSINGS OF A RURAL MAIL MAN There's a man in this land whom you're all glad to meet, Though he visits your home every day. He brings the late news from the populous street, And greetings from friends far away. Though the mud be hub deep and you're far from the pike, And you fear that today he may fall. It's a safe bet that somewhere he's hitting the hike, Just to be there on time with your mail. He is out with the dawn and gets in late at night, Though he hurries the whole long day through; He phases at noon for a cold, frozen bike. While you, perhaps, dine on beef stew. In all kinds of weather he's out on the job, No matter what perils assail, His heart may be breaking; you'll never hear a sob. From the man who delivers your mail. Have a tear for his sorrows, a smile for his joys; He surely deserves the glad hand, Though one of the humblest of Uncle Sam's boys. There’s something about him that's grand. When his last trip is finished and he is called higher, Having bidden farewell to this vale. St. Peter will say: “Here’s a seat in the choir For the man who delivered the mail.” —L. G. Walberry, R.F. Carrier. NEW YORK'S WET PARADE (Fresno Republican) The wets say that they got “over 100,000 persons” in line for the anti-prohibition demonstration in New York. The dry say they employed accountants and adding machines and kept a careful check on the parade, and that there were actually 14,922 in line, including 922 bandsmen and 34 police. their plant if they see fit. Five greenhouses, each 400 feet long and 40 feet wide, are now completed and are filled with long benches of rose plants. The houses are of pipe frame construction. The rafters and gutters are of wood and the side walls are concrete, but the rest is entirely of glass, of which 100,000 square feet were used in construction. The houses are of the newest design and were erected by the American Greenhouse Co., Chicago. C. G. Billings, 1000 E. Broadway, the man who hauls all our mail from the trains to the postoffice, believes he has stumbled on a way to get a vacation at what you might say was no expense at all. Billings was bemoaning his fate to Judge Howard. "Why, you know, judge," says Billings, "I haven't had a vacation in five years. In fact, altho I drive an auto I hadn't been outside the city limits of Anaheim until the other Sunday." "Well, if that's all you have to worry about, I guess I can help you out. Give you 30 days if you want it." Billings hasn't accepted the proposition yet, tho he knows board will cost him nothing. -If it's from Witman's It's good- NEW YORK'S WET PARADE (Fresno Republican) The wets say that they got "over 100,000 persons" in line for the anti-prohibition demonstration in New York. The dry say they employed accountants and adding machines and kept a careful check on the parade, and that there were actually 14,922 in line, including 922 bandsmen and 24 police. There is not as great a discrepancy in this as one might think. Seeing that the wets were going on the pledges to march that they had secured, and the dry were going on their checking machines, there were probably nothing like as many as 100,000 in line, although probably some more than the 15,000. The important thing is that in the largest city in the United States, with a population of some seven millions, there were secured by personal solicitation for signatures only some 200,-000 to agree to march, and that enthusiasts can claim only about 100,-000 having marched. The very sport of the thing would get many thousands to march. The instinct "to be a doing' would get many thousands more. In a city like New York, where FREE!

And to have only 14,922 is an indication of a freeze-out. It is notorious that in large cities, the forces that work together to restrict a reformative police control law, like the Volstead act, are much more successful than in the smaller cities and the rural districts. This does not mean that the evils of liquor are any less in cities than in rural communities—in fact they are greater—but it does show that centers of disaffection against measures of good public policy there longer resist the police power of the government.
