Reports reaching here from all sections of the "upper half" of the state indicate that the grip of winter has settled with a harsh hand. At Redding there was skating on Turtle bay, an arm of the Sacramento river, for the first time in three decades and a half. The lakes in Sunset park, in this city, were frozen over this morning with a thin coating of ice. This is the first time this has happened for years. Fresh water ponds all over the northern districts of the state are reported frozen. Pennoyer, Siskiyou and nearby points reported the temperature down to 22 degrees above zero. A regular Medicine Hat gale blew in at the Golden Gate and brought the coldest weather of the winter to San Francisco and vicinity. Move to Return Light Wines, Beer CHICAGO, Jan. 19.—A national campaign to bring back light wines and beer was launched here today.

CAL., DECLARED LOS ANGELES, Jan. 19—The cold wave sweeping the Northwest and the Middle West, causing record cold weather at many points will hit So. Calif. tomorrow, according to weather experts. The southland was declared today to have been affected the least of any district on the Pacific slope by the cold snap. No damage was caused to So. Calif.'s valuable crops by the weather experienced in Los Angeles and nearby fruit-growing centers last night and early this morning. An overconsumption of gas by persons endeavoring to keep their homes warm during the cold snap resulted in a severe shortage in the Hollywood district early today, according to reports. MUCH INTEREST IN LIGHT PRECIPITATION Much interest was shown today in the light precipitation, which touched Anaheim, Santa Ana, the Irvine ranch and other points in northern Orange county. At first there was considerable argument whether there actually was a fall. The temperature at five o'clock this morning was forty at the packing house of the Orange and Lemon Association. Reports of 36 were received, but not officially confirmed.

CHICKEN DINNER IS YORBA LINDA LURE Want to know why Yorba Linda was selected as the next meeting-place of the Associated Chambers of Commerce? If you'll keep it quiet we'll tell you. Because the town promised a chicken dinner. The message, which was delivered to Secretary James C. Metzgar over the telephone by Past President Lester Keller, didn't make it clear whether just plain chicken or chicken pie or both were to be distributed, but anyhow it's chicken. The Yorba Lakeanettes who serve it wish to find out how many are to come, so notify Metzgar or the Yorba Linda C. of C., as soon as possible, if you're going. INJURED OILMAN BROT TO HOSPITAL L.

Witman, eyesight sp U.S. CHEERED AS POINCARE WINS 'O.K.' French Depulies Vote Confidence in New Premier and America PARIS, Jan. 19. — The United States of America and Premier Poincare received a vote of confidence at the hands of the French chamber of deputies today. At the close of Premier Poincare's presentation of the platform of the new administration to the French chamber this afternoon the delegates leaped to their feet and cheered for the United States amid scenes of the wildest confusion. They also gave their enthusiastic support to the plans of the new premier and assured him that his policies would be backed up to the limit. There were only seven points brot forward against the premier's platform by the opposition and his victory was sweeping. Maintenance of the closest possible relations with America and an uncompromising attitude toward Germany were the keynote of the premier's address. He swept his hearers off their feet by his resounding eloquence. DOES THIS ANSWER The Richmond Evening Dispatch on Dec. 21 last permitted one E. Blackwell—unrelated presumably to the movie actor—to malign California in an article of some three columns, Blackwell, it seems, had an unpleasant or unfortunate economic experience in the state, and the iron still remains in his soul. A copy of the paper or the clipping came into the hands of Thomas B. Welch of the Fullerton vicinity, who sends the article to us, remarking: "I enclose herewith a clipping that you as the champion of So. Calif. may deal with the writer, Mr. Blackwell, in such manner as he most richly deserves. I indeed rejoice that he had the necessary funds to get away from our part of this state, and I do hope he stays away. We don't want his kind. Lay onto him, good and hard." Needless to say, we answer this fellow Blackwell, not because his article requires an answer, but to please Welch. A mere quotation from the article in most cases contains response sufficient. This chap Blackwell, in spite of his evident wish to paint as dark a picture as possible of Southern California, forgets the first principle of good diatribe, which is to mix a due proportion of praise with blame. The writer has been in California nearly three years, of which all but two or three months have been spent around the San Francisco Bay region, but he has had considerable opportunity to travel, conversation and reading, to observe this end of the mostly dupes of real estate and publicity sharks. Movies: The "idols of the silver screen" "abound in the cabarots, the roof gardens and particularly the poadhouses, which have come into almost universal favor," about Los Angeles. Hollywood, the movie city, is "a truly beautiful suburb from a sight-seeing bus hand horribly disappointing from a more personal angle. Embryonic stars, however cannot be avoided. One must eat, and the ham-and-eggs are invariably served by girls who came to Los to fulfill their destinies as temperamental celebrities." Two hundred words or less and this matter of the movies is settled DISCUSS ACTION OF SANTA ANA C. OF C. At a meeting in the Elks' club house today of members of various chambers of commerce affiliated with the Associated Chambers of Orangeco., held it is understood to discuss the refusal of Santa Ana to pay $260 due from it toward the cost of an investigation of the county engineer's office some months ago, a result satisfactory to all present was reached. It was said today. Those present were: From Anaheim—Harry D. Riley, chairman of the committee of investigation; H. M. Adams, Charles A. Eygabroad and Malcom A. Fraser; Garden Grove—H. A. Lake; Fullerton—William Irwin. They also gave their enthusiastic support to the plans of the new premier and assured him that his policies would be backed up to the limit. There were only seven points brot forward against the premier's platform by the opposition and his victory was sweeping. Maintenance of the closest possible relations with America and an uncompromising attitude toward Germany were the keynote of the premier's address. He swept his hearers off their feet by his resounding eloquence and by his appeal to their patriotic impulses. Poincare was wildly cheered as he made his speech. The deputies escaped to their feet, applauding and shouting. "We must maintain the most friendly relations, especially with the United States, which contributed so much to the victory and has just given in the Washington conference striking proofs of noble sentiments," the premier said. Poincare declared that the outstanding necessity was to exact from Germany respect for the terms of the Versailles treaty. Germany must fulfill her engagements, he said, and in event she defaults the first step must be establishment of allied control over the German budget and control over issuance of paper money. The present penalties being imposed on Germany for non-payment must be continued and new penalties exacted if necessary, he said. HAMLER COMPLETES DRAFT OF PROPOSAL Geo. W. Hamler has completed a draft of the proposal he will lay before city council by which he will guarantee $100,000 for park improvements for a subdivision of the west half of the 20-acre park site, purchased within the last six months for that sum. Hamler continues to receive enthusiastic support for the proposition, which will be presented to city council before the next meeting, Thursday of next week. L. R. FIVECOAT BUYS CLYDE DORN PLACE L. R. Fivecoat of Anaheim has purchased from Clyde Dorn property located on Crone avenue. The property consists of a modern five-room house located on a corner lot 60x150. Negotiations for the sale made through the office of Harold Clairmont. AUTO CLUB SIGNS UPON FLAG POLE The Auto Club of So. Calif. expects to put direction signs on the flag pole at the intersection of Center and Los Angeles-sts., within the near future, it was stated today by Paul V. Allen, local club manager. This chap Blackwell, in spite of his evident wish to paint as dark a picture as possible of Southern California, forgets the first principle of good distribe, which is to mix a due proportion of praise with blame. The writer has been in California nearly three years, of which all but two or three months have been spent around the San Francisco Bay region, but he has had considerable opportunity by travel, conversation and reading, to observe this end of the state as it is. Blackwell's attempt to compare northern and southern California to the detriment of the latter, would, needless to say, fall on deaf Californian cars all over the state, if his article ever reached more than a few. For ourselves, we refrain from comparing So. Calif. with either northern California, aa Blackwell has done, or Virginia or Florida, because comparisons are in bad taste and because we don't believe for an instant that Blackwell's opinion is now or will be representative of the old South. "California" and all that its advertising has made it mean, has become so impregnable a pillar of prejudice, says Blackwell in substance, that he realizes he must needs use a stout shoulder to push it over. However, Blackwell is not modest, and has been told to "do" an article comparing California and Virgin a and does it. Some quotations—Climate: "California," to the average man, means the region surrounding Los Angeles and does not include the valleys and hills north of San Francisco, where the only invigorating atmosphere west of Arizona can be obtained in unlimited quantity. It is a safe bet that the uninitiated do not dream that the mornings in the southern region are drab until between 9 and 10 o'clock, and yet this is an indisputable fact (save by Californians). "... everyone who can afford steam heat has a furnace in his Los Angeles home." In spite of San Francisco's still being the financial capital of the state, in spite of the world's fair held there, in spite of the University of California's being located at Berkeley and Stanford at Palo Alto, in spite of Fresno-co being the center of the country's raisin production, California means only Los Angeles and vicinity "to the average man." If that's so, all we can say is "God help the average man." But Blackwell's acquaintance with the average man of America is uncannily unique. In fact his average man's prejudice in favor of California is what the Virginia writer seeks to overthrow. Incidentally Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Muir Woods, etc., are not in southern California. As for the aforesaid "drab atmosphere" we have met it so seldom even in this so-called rainy season—not the dry season, which Blackwell has in mind—that we hardly know what he means. Somehow, also, the lack of an "invigorating atmosphere" doesn't seem here quoted from the article in most cases contains response sufficient.

His broncal catarrh shows little improvement. Up to yesterday he refused to go to bed. His temperature has reached 103.8. The trouble began with an attack of gripe. Close watch is being kept of his condition by Cardinal Gasparri, Papal secretary of state. ASK BIDS ON REFRIGERATORS SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 19.—The So. Pac. Co. announces bids for 3300 refrigerator cars for 1922 delivery to the Pacific Fruit Express have asked. The cost is estimated at $33,800,000, bringing the total expenditure for new equipment and facilities since 1920 up to $33,000,000. OCEAN PARK PIER DAMAGED LOS ANGELES, Jan. 19.—Pickering pleasure pier at Ocean Park was damaged to the extent of $50,000 to $75,000 Wednesday afternoon by a mo-ton barge, which broke from its moorings at sea and came to shore. HEAD CRUSHED BY TRUCKS PASADENA, Jan. 19.—Death came to William F. Nolan, one of the owners of the Park Produce Co. at 141 N. Raymond-ave, when his head was crushed between two trucks. He died before he reached the hospital. Witman, eyesight specialist. As for the aforesaid "drab atmosphere" we have met it so seldom even in this so-called rainy season—not the dry season which Blackwell has in mind—that we hardly know what he means. Somehow, also, the lack of an "invigorating atmosphere" doesn't seem to chime in with the presence of furnaces in Los Angeles. Personally, we are glad to be through with both dripping and freezing. Scenery: "On this score, no seasoned Virginian ever becomes truly converted. When he has an expanse of sand and cactus pointed out to him; when he is shown the So. Cal hills (which resemble nothing so much as one of Henry Cohn's rubbish dumps, enlarged) the vision of the sweetly rolling Valley of Virginia, with its wonderful contours, gentle slopes, emerald fields and reassuring silver streams must inevitably recur." We have crossed the country several times, we have lived in several states possessing a variety of scenery, and we long since came to the conclusion that it is absurd to compare different types of natural beauty in America. California's beautifully rounded hills—to say nothing of her mountains—have been chiselled into shapes which, we say without hesitation, we have never seen anywhere else. The perfect symmetry which they uniformly present is unique. Every one is a natural unit. Their grandeur and variety are typical of the state as a whole. And it would not be difficult to find many an example of the soft loveliness remarked by Blackwell of Virginia in a dozen California counties. People: Blackwell dismisses this part of his story with about 100 words. "In Los Angeles, so statisticians aver, only 3 per cent of the population are native sons or daughters. A majority of the remainder are imported from Kansas and Iowa. Any Virginians who are tired of our crude civilization are cordially invited to take this tip." Evidently Blackwell dislikes Kansans and lowans, also. To say nothing about the various natives of other states who have come here.

The fact that much of the best "legitimate" acting talent in the country is busy in the movies, that the moral tone of the screen steadily is improving, that the business of making moving pictures has become too large for one city and is spreading to many another city of the state, mean nothing to Blackwell. As for Hollywood, in spite of the fact that various residential parts of the city still are in the rough stages of development, we think the town can speak quite well enough for itself, even through the medium of the silent drama.

ATTEPMT TO FORGE ON FIRST NATIONAL The last attempt made for some time to cash in the First National Bank checks to which he had forged the name of an Anaheim woman was made today by a young Anaheimer about 1 o'clock.

The dam would be approximately 130 high measuring from the level of the river bed. At the point selected the sandstone cliffs offer an admirable anchorage for the dam.
