DAILY GREETING TO READERS Words are the soul's ambassadors, which go Abroad upon her errands to and from; They are the sole expounders of the mind, And correspondence keep 'twixt all mankind. — James Howel. Disagreeing juries do not agree with the disposition of the taxpayer. Being useful is quite as important as being "nice." The things are said to be both good and bad, one exception however, being rheumastim. People with many reasons are easier to argue against that people with but one. It should be a proud pleasure for every loyal American to display the Flag on Memorial Day and on every patriotic occasion. Delayed justice is not full justice. Even the criminal is entitled to a reasonably expedited hearing and determination of his case. Planning of forest trees should become more common here in California. The value and importance of it should be taught children. Reasons are multiplying for return of this country to normal economic activity and resultant prosperity. Reduction in freight rates is one condition that should help along the coveted reign of good times. Reduced freight rates will stimulate business and industry the country over. No action in recent times is more calculated to produce greater REDUCTION IN FREIGHT RATES A BOON Trade and industry will revive and go forward by leaps and bounds, is the confident belief of the shrewdest business minds of the country, as a result of the reduction in freight rates ordered on all railroads under its jurisdiction, by the interstate commerce commission. The reduction is greater than was expected. It averages 10 cents on the dollars. Effective July 1, the benefits will be felt immediately, as industry and business adjust themselves to it and begin the long-awaited revival. Of particular interest and of direct concern to California is announcement from the state railroad commission that railroad freight rates in this state, on roads under the jurisdiction of the state commission, will be reduced to conform to the cut in interstate rates. California thus is assured of the full advantages of the decreased freights. This is the boon that the country has needed. Trade and industry unquestionably are improving, even under present transportation charges. But it has been realized, for a long time, that there could not be the general and generous revival so long coveted, until railroad freight rates were cut down. Conditions now are ripe for this betterment to begin, and it is expected that it will come like a torrent, sweeping the country along toward economic normality. RECLAMATION BILL IS IN ABEYANCE Congress, mindful of the November elections, is clutching desperately at every possible ways and means of keeping down appropriations—unless said appropriations are of a nature to strengthen the political fences of members who seek re-election.

The value and importance of it should be taught children. Reasons are multiplying for return of this country to normal economic activity and resultant prosperity. Reduction in freight rates is one condition that should help along the coveted reign of good times. Reduced freight rates will stimulate business and industry the country over. No action in recent times is more calculated to produce greater activity and hasten the return to full normality in the economic life of the nation. It is of the utmost importance that freight rates be fair and equitable, so that shipments may go forward in normal volume as business and industry revive under the impetus of reduced transportation charges. The sweeping cut in freight rates ordered by the interstate commerce commission should galvanize trade and industry and promote swift return to prosperous general conditions. California's alien land law is held to be constitutional by three federal judges, and also is held not to be in contravention of treaty between the United States and Japan. This gives hope to those who, in good faith, have been endeavoring to stem the Oriental tide and to prevent the acquisition of the best farming lands of the state by Asiatics who are unassimilable and wholly intelligible to citizenship in the United States. To bring about normal economic conditions, here must be deflations and mutual concessions on the part of clashing interests. No one class should have benefits and advantages above all other classes. There should be equity in these things. If this equitableness cannot be brought about voluntarily, by action initiated by the interest, concerned, the federal government should interpose its strong arm to compel respect for the equities. RECLAMATION BILL IS IN ABEYANCE Congress, mindful of the November elections, is clutching desperately at every possible ways and means of keeping down appropriations—unless said appropriations are of a nature to strengthen the political fences of members who seek re-election. Consequently, the Smith-McNary bill, which authorizes the creation of a reclamation revolving fund of $350,000,000 for the irrigation of arid lands in the west and the drainage and reclamation of swamp lands in the south, has little show of enactment before the regular session, which convenes next December. Even though this important legislation may be delayed, it will be of vast importance and of huge benefit to this section when it is put upon the statute books. It will enhance the produced wealth of this region, and will bring many new settlers and additional capital for developmental investment. TROUBLE BREEDS FROM ALLIANCES Europe is engaged in the menacing process of forming international alliances and alignments. These are essentially mischievous. From them is liable to come serious trouble, unless better counsels prevail among the great powers. The World War should have taught Europe an enduring lesson. Seemingly, however, it has not. There are outroppings of militaristic ambitions, from time to time. There are secret treaties and covert allying which, in the long run will incubate mischief. Europe should get away from these things and keep away from them. If each and every great power of Europe would adopt the American policy of forming no "entangling alliances" among themselves, and if this policy of freedom from alliances were maintained consistently, Europe and the world would be spared a vast deal of serious trouble and wars would be averted.

S. BROWNE, G. A 419 Bush Street Santa Ana, Calif. Telephone 1877 THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Abe Martin New York Letter by Leigh James Price NEW YORK, May 29.—A favorite meeting place for the Broadway crowds has disappeared. High up on a little building at Broadway and 44th-st and 7th-ave, a large electric clock has registered the passing hours on Broadway for years. There was little to attract attention to the building itself and travel was never congested at this point even though the clock was in direct vision from the Times building. Hence it was a favorite place for the boys to meet, but now the clock is gone. A building is to be erected on this spot and with the passage of time the place has lost its hold as a meeting point. No longer can Broadway promise to meet "you under the clock." There is already a movement on foot by the Heart of New York Business Men's Ass'n to place a clock on top of the proposed traffic tower at 44th-st to replace the old time piece, but again that will not be a very convenient meeting place. For those of us who have never succeeded in getting it "Who's Who," we have yet another reason for being sorry. A gentleman from out country recently applying for a passport was told he must have a birth certificate before it could be issued. To have sent home for it presented a long delay. His identity was complete and yet no means of verification existed. Then he remembered his entrance into fame by being listed in the 1921 "Who's Who". He produced the volume and the clerk read all about him and "his cousins and his aunts," and straightway forwarded the document to Washington with the assurance that the passport would be back on schedule time. It is said he had given a good account of himself in his own biography. The shop windows are crowded with sport togs. You would think Milady did nothing but play golf, tennis, and otherwise disport herself. THE REVERSE OF POOR SUSAN At the corner of Wood street, when daylight appears, Hangs a thrush that sings loud. It has sung for three years; Poor Susan has passed by the spot, and has heard In the silence of the morning the song of the bird. 'Tis a song of enchantment; what alis her? She sees A mountain ascending, a vision of trees; Bright volumes of vapor through Lothbury glide, And a river flows on through the vale of Cheapside. Green pastures she views in the midst of the dale Down which she so often has tripped with her pail; And a single small cottage, a nest like a dove's, The one only dwelling on earth that she loves. She looks, and her heart is in heaven; but they fade; The mist and the river, the hill and the shade; The stream will not flow, and the hill will not rise. And the colors havee all passed away from her eyes! —William Wadsworth. Yorba Linda News Mr. Frank Nixon has been transferred from Richfield where he has been employed with the Union Oil Co., to Santa Fe Springs. Mr. Newton Neelswander of Y. L. boulevard has moved his house aside and at the spot where it stood, will start at once, the erection of a fine new two story house, to cost in the neighborhood of $7,000.

About 30 men attended the demonstration on sulphur and nicotine dusting for control of red spider and aphis, at the Fred Quigley ranch this week.

This guy who induced his wife to go into the wilderness with him and live close to nature, a la Adam and Eve, is going to be the price of just one woman's spring suit ahead of the rest of us when they bring in the sheaves this fall. The "obey" is being taken out of marriage rites. Some take it out of the prohibition law also. "Buy until it hurts" is the new slogan. That's easy. 'E's a Blighter, Old Things! Jack Dempsey can wear a monocle in the United States and get away with it because he's world's champion fighter. "Juries shoot dice sometimes to decide cases," declares an eastern judge. We wish the judge would find out for us whether the United States supreme court uses dice or a put-and take top. They found a 25,000-year-old man at Stanford.

We catch 10-cent fish with a $4 rod. We build elegant schoolhouses and then send our children away to school. We buy automobiles and pay interest on a mortgage at the same time. In brief, we try to live as others do who may have 10 times as much money as we do. Is it any wonder there is a High Cost of Living? —Clyde (O.) Enterprise. 25-000 LONG YEARS AGO Maybe that Stanford, guy who lived 25,000 years ago was a professor. If he was, his address to the graduation class of 23,059 B.C. probably went something like this: "You are stepping from the university into the great world, and as the school doors close behind you, remember that there are great battles to be fought." "The student body of today is tomorrow's citizens. Let us, therefore, pleague ourselves—etc." He ho! says the man from Siam, For these soft drinks I don't care a bit; Three shots of white mule And I'm sick as a tool— They call me a quitter—yie yam. J. P. Morgan has been made a doctor of commercial law. It needs one. The L.A. Morning Astonisher has found the meanest man. He lives in them out? He lauds them. The shop windows are crowded with sport togs. You would think Milady did nothing but play golf, tennis, and otherwise disport herself. One of the leading shop keepers denies it. He claims that it is the intrigue of the smart sport clothes and the various accessories that go with them. The purchaser probably has no use for knickers, spending only an occasional week-end in the country and even then not going in for long hikes, golf or riding. Yet, the knickers go with the suit; there are alluring woolen stockings, heavy brogue shoes and even tweed purses offered which make her go in for an entire costume even though she doesn't know when she is going to wear it. Now and then one of the brave souls dashes into a tea room in the afternoon, flushed and careless, as if she has just torn herself away from the links when in reality she has only emerged from an uptown apartment. "The stuff is picturesque—they look like magazine covers and they like it"—says the canny merchant. "Have you a little pollywog in your home?" So reads a sign in a bird and fish store in the lower down town section. The pollywogs swim contentedly around in a glass fish aquarium and if you buy an assortment you can watch the biological phenomena of their development into frogs. This seems a frightful inroad on the privacy but it must be embarrassing to the poor pollywog to turn frog right before the very eyes of the world even though the observers are of the school, students and such, studying zoology. Dr. Royal S. Copeland, health commissioner, comes to the rescue for those girls with knickers. He is organizing business men and housewives, flappers and cake eaters, stenographers and clerks—all elements of New York's whirlpool of humanity who are tired of subways or limousines, into cross-city hiking teams. These "health hikes" are to give the citizens the benefit of honest goodness exercise and at the same time acquaint them with their New York in a way they may not have known before. They will be taught how to conserve their energy in going on a long hike, when to put their best foot forward and also how to avail themselves of the gentle art of conversation while gaining healthful exercise. The Commissioner plans to go on the first hike and no telling whom else, so that the event offers great promise for those who would seek adventure within the limits of town. Mr. Newton Neisswander of P.L.Boulevard has moved his house aside and at the spot where it stood, will start at once, the erection of a fine new two story house, to cost in the neighborhood of $7,000. Little Miss Marjorie Knight has been on the sick list this week. About 30 men attended the demonstration on sulphur and nicotine dusting for control of red spider and蚂蚁, at the Fred Quigley ranch this week. It was demonstrated that it is better to apply this early in the morning when there was no wind and while the dew was still on the leaves. The point was also made that it costs about 50c per tree for dusting, while spraying with a mixture of lime, sulfur, and nicotine costs 14c a tree. This will be gone into more completely at the next meeting to be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. B.M. Selover on June 13th at 7:30 p.m. Yorba Linda came in for her share of the prizes being awarded at the Anaheim Orange show.

MIDDLE OF CALIFORNIA Monday, May 29, 1922 Comments of the Press What Editors Are Saying NO CHILD DRIVERS—Sacramento Bee Charles J. Chenu, superintendent of the Motor Vehicle department, announces that his office will not issue an operator's license to any child under 14 years of age. This step was decided on when an operator's application came in from the parents of an 5-year-old boy. Mr. Chenu states that he can find no provision in the law for his step, but it certainly finds sufficient support in common sense. If Mr. Chenu has erred at all, it has been on the side of conservatism in fixing the age limit. It might work a hardship in a few cases, but on the whole it would be in the interest of safety on the roads and street, prevention of accidents, and better, for the children themselves. Certainly some minimum should be fixed by statute, so the action of the superintendent would not be open to legal attack. It would be a foolish parent who would trust a child of eight with a car; but apparently there are some such.

As a matter of fact, some people never recover from the effects of flu simply because they do not know there are remembrances that will bring back health and strength. Letter, Mrs. Jonas Myers, D. No. 1, Kelly's Sta-Pa., tells how she counseled the effects of a severe attack of “Flu” after trying various remedies. She says: “I never took any medicine that did me so much good as Dr. A. W. Chase’s Tonic Pills. I had the ‘Flu’ and after I got over it, was so weak and nervous, I could hardly get around. I tried different medicines but was no better when I quit using them than before I started. A friend sent me one of your booklets and I read of Dr. A. W. Chase’s medicines. I may say that I had given up all hope of ever getting better, but three boxes of Dr. A. W. Chase’s Tonic Pills made me feel like a new person. I feel now as if life was worth living once more, and am recommending Dr. A. W. Chase’s medicines to everyone I know.” You can buy Dr. A. W. Chase’s remedies at all drug stores. To be sure of getting the genuine, see that the portrait and signature of A. W. Chase, M. D., are on each box. This trade mark is your protection against imitations. —Advertisement.
