Protection against liquor smugglers for the hundreds of miles of Florida coast was requested of President Harding and congress in a memorial passed by the Florida house today. Representative Dusto, of Key West, cast the only dissenting vote and explained it by: "This is an admission of the inability of Florida to enforce her own laws governing the transportation and sale of liquor." LOCAL LIONS HELP WITH CONVENTION The Anaheim Lions' club is pre-uring to do its share and then some to entertaining the delegates to the annual state convention of the Lions, to be held in Santa Ana next Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Carrale Thorpe, general manager, announce sin a bulletin made public today by Secretary-Manager Walter Ross of the Anaheim Walnut Growers' Ass'n. In tons, the per census will be roughly 25,000 out of a total of 30,000 tons against 20,000 out of 25,000 last year. Says Thorpe "In the first place, let us advise that all the association coast holdings of every grade and variety of unchelled walnuts are completely exhausted and consignments in the hands of our brokers over the entire United States total less than 500 tags of all grades. In other works, the old crop is practically cleaned up. Also, stocks in the hands of the trade are lighter than we have ever known them for this season of the year. A complete cleanup both with the wholesale and retail trade is therefore absolutely assured before any new crop goods can become available. Our spring growing season opened up ten days to two weeks earlier than usual; so, if normal growing conditions prevail, the harvest should be at least ten days earlier than it was last season. The trees in every unusually heavy crop of nuts, and also weather conditions have been fine during the spring months, for some unaccountable reason there has been a heavy dropping off of the crop. In some sections three fourths of the nuts that originally set fallen off, and the average drop for the entire state is at least 40 percent. An early dropping of this sort is something entirely new to the walnut industry, as the trees generally carry all of the walnuts set, at least until well into June. There is still, however, a sufficient heavy setting left on the trees to produce a crop about 20 percent larger than last season, if no further drop occurs, and we have hopes that the loss from dropping is past. "The 1922 crop of California walnuts amounted to 25,010.7 tons, of which the California Walnut Growers Ass'n handled 20,055.9 tons, and all other packers 4,954.8 tons. These are final figures which have been checked and rechecked and are guaranteed by us to be accurate to within a fraction of one per cent. Therefore, should the 1923 crop prove to be 20 per cent larger, the California output would be about 30,000 tons, or 600,000 bags, of which the association should handle approximately 25,000 tons." "Our rules policy will be the same as that we have followed during the past two seasons." "Our present quotations are below" LOCAL LIONS HELP WITH CONVENTION The Anaheim Lions' club is preparing to do its share and then some in entertaining the delegates to the annual state convention of the Lions, to be held in Santa Ana next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The club will attend the convention in a body on Friday, abandoning its regular weekly luncheon to do so. They will also entertain the visiting ladies Friday at luncheon and also dinner at the Elks' clubhouse. The local Lions also hope to bring down to the Orange show on Saturday as many of the delegates as possible, following the barbecue at Orange-co park. The matter of the annual international convention of Lions' clubs to be held at Atlantic City this summer has not yet been discussed, but the local club undoubtedly will elect a delegate to it. The convention also will be a target of interest at the Santa Ana meeting, when an endeavor probably will be made to find out how many delegates will be present from the fourth district, comprising California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and the Hawaiian Islands. At yesterday's meeting, Charles Walker, chairman of the entertainment program, introduced George Jackson, who sang some delightful solos. WOMAN SEVERELY INJURED BY AUTO Mrs. H. T. Eckles of Orange lies in a critical condition at the Community Hospital, Santa Ana, following an accident this morning when she was struck by a car.

These are the selections of Maryah Aye, noted film beauty, as "Queen Valencia," and the engagement of Ellen Beach Yaw, internationally famous prima dona soprano, who will sing on the musical program. Maryon Aye, a princess of the silver sheet and a popular screen actress in many photoplays, is to reign over the festivities attendant upon the pageant to be staged by Miss Lettle Carroll, dance instructress at the University of California, Southern branch, with many Orange County young folk taking part. Rarely lovely in her royal robes of orange, Miss Aye will be the majestic sovereign in the pomp and pageant that will accompany the social activities of the great fruit display. She will be attended by a reunion of girls, with a sprinkling of handsome men, all ornately garbed in court costume. Madam Yaw will sing in her canary-like voice that has charmed audiences on two continents and in a great many courtesies. Its range is three notes higher than any of the Coloratura soprano of her time, she having reached the almost unbelievable pitch of B flat above high C. This operatic star needs no introduction to music lovers of the Southland, where she long has been known and loved, not only for her wondrous vocal sweetness, but also because of her charitable and rescue work among unfortunate women. Critical journals of Rome, Paris, Monte Carlo, Nice, Naples, London and other European centers of musical culture have joined with the leading American newspapers in the praising of her wonderful clarity and timbre of Madame Yaw's exceptional voice. The famous singer will be heard in many selections, including her most notable ones, during the Orange Show, of which she is one of the headline attractions.
