THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER An Independent Newspaper, Issued Every Afternoon Except Sunday R. W. ERNEST, Manager PAUL V. HESTER, Editor Subscription rate—In No. Orange-co: Per yr. $3; six months $1.75 Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Cal., as second-class matter DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Every relation which we occupy with its duties; every hour with which our lives are enlightened hath its divine purpose. These relations were not ordained by God to please us, and ought not to be indulged in with that idea; chiefly they are the means for our growth in grace. —William Mountford. The senority rule in the Senate, thereby Senators are advanced to important committee chairmanship solely because of length of service, is a painful method, oftentimes handling legislation because of notorious inefficiency and lack of statesmanly abilities on the part of committee chairman. Not all Senate committee chairmen thus fall short of statesmanly acumen. But the number of them is painfully big. Reports and statistics denoting prosperity continue to come with gratifying frequency from all parts of the country, affecting those in which there are strikes. The thriving is cumulative—the more there is, the more comes. One industry prospers, has reflex influence upon other industries, and as industries become more active and as more men go back to work, business is revived and the whole economic structure is benefited. The means of enlightenment are so common that nations and peoples understand each other better than they ever did before. Newspapers lay the world at the average person's dinner or breakfast plate. Wireless, cable, swift ships, telegraphs, airships and fast trains make the world smaller, annihilate time and DEFRAUDING PUBLIC IS TOO COMMON A flagrant case of alleged defrauding of the public has come before the grand jury of King county, state of Washington, and has resulted in the indictment of ten men, prominent in politics and business. Sweeping charges of graft, collusion and gross mismanagement of the county ferry system are made against the county commissioners. Against these men chosen to serve the people the charge is made that they "systematically endeavored to pile up enormous operation costs for the purpose of misleading and deceiving the taxpayers of King county as to the value of the ferry system to the county and more particularly with regard to the cost of operation." The offenses of this nature are too common is patent to every well-informed person. The manner in which too many men, chosen to serve the people, turn about and systematically swindle the taxpayers, or permit them to be swindled, is startling enough. Some men seem to be utterly lacking in conscience in dealing with the public. The people have in their own hands the ways and means of remedying these conditions. They should exercise great care in choosing men of the right quality to serve them in public positions. And when dishonesty is found in a public official, he should be turned out quickly and should be prosecuted relentlessly. Another thing: It should be remembered that the dishonest, extravagant public officials are in the minority. Men holding public office, as a rule, are honest and conscientious. The public should recognize this fact and should show appreciation of the faithful, honest public service. Too often good men are driven out of has reflex influence upon other industries, and as industries become more active and as men go back to work, business is revived and the whole economic structure is benefited. The means of enlightenment are so common that nations and peoples understand each other better than they ever did before. Newspapers lay the world at the average person's dinner or breakfast plate. Wireless, cable, swift ships, telegraphs, airships and fast trains make the world smaller, annihilate time and space and draw the whole human family, as it were, around a common fireplace. These things are making for peace—the peace of understanding. See the good in your neighbors and those with whom you come in contact. It will bring out the good in you to do this. It makes life brighter and sweeter all around. There are frailties in all—in yourself, as well as in others. No human being is or ever has been or ever will be perfect. Do not expect perfection—do not judge people on the basis of perfection. Appraise them on the average expectations, making a due allowance for weak human nature and for ordinary weaknesses and defects in disposition and character. Assume a broad, tolerant, generous, charitable attitude toward others' frailties, particularly if these frailties are not vices or those things which should be reprehended severely. Taxation in this country and other countries never will be reduced to an unburdensome basis until world-wide peace has been established, on a just and lasting basis, and until great armaments have been abandoned by all the leading powers. Advances are made so frequently in aeronautic development that it almost makes one dizzy to keep up with them. The things that once were considered marvelous beyond possibility of achievement, today are commonplaces. California continues to be an economic "white spot." At no time has it been a dark spot. Unemployment in the state, aside from those out on strike, is practically nil. Conditions are especially encouraging throughout the Pacific West.

Heying's Pharmacy "On the Corner" THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Abe Martin New York Letter by Lucy Jensen Price NEW YORK, July 14.—All old adages to the contarary, there is at least one group of New Yorkers who make their hay while the rain pours and thus save up for a rainy day—and the picture shows. They are the boys who rush to the subway exits when the drops begin to fall, laden with umbrellas, which they will rent you for wager your gratitude suggests your aping—escorting you to your destination and then tearing back with their equipment to grab another person-afraid-of-the-rain. They crowd around every exit at the home-coming hours and gather in a good day's income. This past month was such a deluge time, that the enterprising ones invested in raincoats in addition to umbrellas and found an appreciative and generous-paying clientele among the women who had gone out in their summer clothes, certain that "it couldn't possibly rain again this week." Can it be that the land made famous by beautiful women and their costuming is to become a mere satellite of the U. S. A.? So do the ages change! A New York dressmaker told me that she was going over to Paris largely to enjoy seeing her own frocks paraded there at fashionable gatherings as "original French creations"; and abeauty specialist showed me a shipment of lotions she had just made ready to start off to that same Paris. Then there are the "Castle Bob"—that original inspiration of bobbed heads. Paris went mad about that. And the permanent wave! Surely one would think of that as atypically French idea and certainly one does see nearly every woman's head in metropolitan France coiffed in silken permanent waves. But that, too, originated in America. Now they are taking over the new method of doing it, just as they took the wave itself". M. Nestle, its creator, told me. "While we used borax and much heat to achieve it, so did Paris. Now that we have done Manufacturers' Views By CHARLES H. RANDALL Prohibition Congressman, 1915-21 The most important publication ever issued in this or any other country on the subject of Prohibition is a pamphlet of $3 pages just off the press of the Manufacturer's Record, the old and well known organ of the manufacturing industry of the United States. In its pages are given the views of hundreds of men of affairs—manufacturers of iron and steel, cotton and other products, bankers, lawyers, college and university officials, based upon two and one half years of experience with national prohibition. In these letters are found unanswerable arguments, based on actual facts, as to the value of prohibition from every possible standpoint. A few brief quotations are here given: Judge Gary of the United States Steel Corporation states that results have fully justified prohibition legislation. In closing his statement he said that drunkenness is not as common at present, as under the open saloon. N. G. Spangler, general manager of the Jackson Iron & Steel Co., Jackson, Ohio, wrote: "With the coming of prohibition our troubles from drink disappeared. Under the saloon system, for two or three days after each pay day we had trouble to secure men to man our plant. This has been entirely eliminated, absenteeism from work at other times has been very greatly reduced and efficiency improved. There is more interest taken in home life which is reflected in a greater number of men paying for their homes, improving its furnishings, providing better shoes and clothing for their little ones, and increased savings deposits." But M. Spangler's strikingly true analysis of the situation is found in this paragraph from his letter: "It is our observation that the laboring man and the poor are not the lawbakers," but that lies more And every little breeze is worth eighteen trillion dollars!

George Fabian, Chicago millionaire student of human nature and health. He starts a campaign to better the human race physically by teaching us how to walk correctly. The colonel laments that many walk like anthropoid apes. If so, why worry about it? Apes are as healthy as prize bulldogs. Our neuroscientific generation worries too much about the body. THE RADIOSARY The hours I spend on thee, dear set, Are but a total loss, I know, I "listen in" but nary a song I get—My radio! My radio! Political candidates are warned it's against the law to tack up their pictures on telephone poles, bridges, trees and other public property.

But that, too, originated in America. "Now they are taking over the new method of doing it, just as they took the wave itself". M. Nestle, its creator, told me. "While we used borax and much heat to achieve it, so did Paris. Now that we have developed the Lanoll process, eliminating the drying borax and making unnecessary the long application of heat Paris has rushed to adopt it. The only tragedy is that many of the dresses think from the name that it is an oil process. So they try to devise their own materials and apply oil as its base. You can imagine what that does? It fries the hair; and who wants fried hair on her head? It isn't pretty, as you can believe. But of course the intelligent ones don't do it; they are content to take over our ways in completeness. And they boast of "American Lanoll wave" just as others lines of business do of "real American cocktails." Maurice Chevalier, the French musical star, who has been appearing in Paris for over two years in "Dode", is spending a short vacation in New York, going to see all of the musical shows and generally getting acquainted with us. Charles Dillingham is bringing "Dode" over here as soon as the Paris engagement is completed, and Chevalier will return with it. Spend forty cents and six hours and get two weeks' worth of tan!

WISE AND WITTY To write popular books, the author must scrupulously avoid anything that resembles literature. Advertising is as necessary in business as honesty, and both together will distance all competition. There is some consolation in the thought that you own just as much property on the moon as Rockefeller. Always try to keep more ahead of you than a job. Too much of a good thing may be more injurious than a little of a bad thing. DEMPSEY signs to fight at last—three years after the fight is over.

Did he pay less for the tire than his neighbor might have paid, or actually did he pay more? Did he get the bottom price, when all is said and done, or could he perhaps have driven a sharper bargain? Was the net price really more than he might have had to pay for a mere of established reputation and value?
