MANY SPEAK AT REALTY BANQUET (Continued From Page One; which had made friends of competitors. Realtors should be looked upon as leaders, men of vision, who were trying to put their community to the fore. Other communities, said Riley, thought Anaheim had a good chamber. Anaheim businessmen were raised as fire wives, "go gettn." and the directors of the chamber were all good businessmen. Riley declared that lack of support of the chamber by the board was all in the past, and each was going to work for the other. He himself, he said, was going to attend the board's Wednesday luncheon. Riley closed with good wishes both to the board and the State机关. Secretary George W. Reid of the chamber, who followed Riley, put forward some statistics regarding Anaheim and the county, which must have been eye-openers to some of the visitors. Reid stressed the fact that the chamber was among other things a bureau of information, and offered its services to realtors. A great business man once told him, he said, that you never know a man "until you get him on your books." Reid said he hoped to get all the realtors on the books of the chamber. Dr. Gelsinger, the next speaker, spoke on "Christianity in Business." William Lyon Phelps, professor of English literature at Male, he said, once declared that when he wrote a speech he wrote four speeches: The one he prepared, the one he delivered, the one he wished on the way home that he had given, and the one the newspapers reported. The aforementioned reference ship was one of the problems then being discussed at the big meeting of American reality board in session at Augusta, Ga., said the spokesman. Herren urged weekly meetings of reality boards, wherever they were located. He appealed for ethics in the real estate business. Don't self-except at fair prices nor to any buyer who you know will not be able to complete the purchase. He said he had seen farms in the Mid-Jeff West Geeline from $1,010 an acre to $250 the past few years. The former amount was a price, not the true value, and realtors could have presented such an inflation and derision. Realtors must compare notes and exchange knowledge, however, if they are to prevent dishonest practices. Part of the duty of the national and State organizations was to aid the local board. President Hargrove got hold of Herren by sending a car to San Bernardino where Herren spoke at noon yesterday. Secretary Willamon's speech consisted largely of recollections of the starting of the Anaheim board, and was filled with references to familiar figures of the local and Santa Ana boards, the State Ass'n etc. Annelim, in deferred, was considered "the Lodi" of Southern California, "one of the best-built cities for future growth in Southern California." Everett A. White's remarks were brief. White introduced Miss Willamon, sister of the secretary, who recently came to California from Ohio. He said the County should go to Panadena this year with its records of achievement and make its influence felt. Mrs. Carl Mock, President of the Santa Ana Auxiliary, who was slated to speak on "Lady Realter Auxiliary," was brief. She said she was a native daughter of native California father and mother. She urged the backing of North- The aforementioned sufferers in "Escrow Indians" didn't represent the pastor's own opinion as some realtors appeared to think, but the speaker declared nevertheless that a lot of people feel like drowning realtors as in Rogers picture. P. T. Barnum, the great showman once as much as said that business consisted of "dog eat dog." Back in the 90's religion was secondary to business; the master intimated. The fact was illustrated in the familiar story of the store keeper, who asked his man if he had watered the rum, sanded the sugar etc., and when the man told him he had performed there chores, said he might than come to family prayers. People now, said the minister, don't want to be humbugged. The Golden Rule works, and not only that, it is the only thing that does work. In "The Man from Maine," the boy asked what his father had done besides build up a big business. That question showed what the boy thought. He expected move of his father. The great preachers now are not in the pulpit, said the speaker. Roosevelt, Bryan and Babson were among the big preachers. It was Babson who had called attention to the need of religion in business. He had Howard Heinz, the young man who had recently succeeded to his father's big preserving business. Heinz recently told his saleon that their greatest asset was spirituality. The president of the American Banker Aaron had spoken in a similar vein to Heinz and Babson. American prosperity and national success could not be explained in terms of raw materials or even of applied intelligence, declared the speaker. It had been the spiritual quality in business. "A genuine revival of genuine religion" was what the world needed, said Dr. Gelzinger; and he spoke in no narrow sectarian sense: "The rising tide of spiritual faith around the world" was the thing which would save civilization. No set of men needed religion more than realism. "I'm going to make all you follow a subject a prayer," the pastor remarked looking at the close of his speech. Former Commissioner Bloodgood Prestett A. White's remarks were brief. White introduced Miss Willamon, sister of the secretary, who recently came to California from Ohio. He said the County should go to Pasadena this year with its records of achievement and make its influence felt. Mrs. Carl Mock, President of the Santa Ana Auxiliary, who was slated to speak on "Lady Realtor Auxillary," was brief. She said she was a native daughter of native California father and mother. She urged the backing of Northern Orange County of the plans for development of Orange County Harbor. President Margrove told her at the close of her speech that such aid would be given. Commissioner Kelser's speech consisted mostly of a description of the day's work of the commissioner. Correcting Former Commissioner Bloodgood, he said that 2,000 more realtors in California had received licenses in addition to the 60,000 mentioned by bloodgood. The finances of the department were in excellent condition, he declared. Bird V. Beebe, the only Anaheimmer who spoke outside of President Margrove, presented Hargrove with a clock, the gift of the board, made "in order that you may always have a time." Former Secretary Say Idler also was reminisced with a gift, but Beebe didn't take off the wrapping to show what it was. President Barbour, who closed the speaking, made an inspiring address on "The Golden Rule of a Realtor." "The Realtor and My Country," was his real subject, he said. He called Elder Smith, sailing in the Mayflower and landing in Massachusetts, and Father Juniper Serra, who landed in California, two of the nation's great practitioners of the Golden Rule. History had been divided into various epochs and ages, he said, according to the method of division: This is the Empire Age. Said Barbour. Every realtor here in California must prepare himself for the empire that was to rise in the Southwest and the 900,000 to 10,000,000 people that would be added to the State's population. California realtors had two big jobs to do in 1924, he said: To untangle the Colorado river dam problem, a political task, and to further the development of the huge natural resources, including coal and edoke, of the San Joaquin valley. The program in full follows: "AMERICA" My Country His of these, Sweet Land of Liberty Of those I sing, Land where my fathers died; Land of the Pilgrim's pride; the spiritual quality in business. "A genuine revival of genuine religion" was what the world needed, said Dr. Gelsinger; and he spoke in no narrow sectarian sense; "The rising tide of spiritual faith around the world" was the thing which would save civilization. No act of men needed religion more than realism. "I'm going to make all you follow a subject a prayer," the pastor remarked lokingly at the close of his speech. Former Commissioner Bloodgood's speeches was devoted main-the life and achievements of Franklin whose anniversary falls on Jan. 37, he said. The great American's achievements for "premsis, liberty and human comfort" were detailed at length by the speaker. Franklin, he declared, had laid out the program for realists 228 years ago. A few years ago there was only one good textbook on the real estate business, that of Walker. Now there were several and by eminent men, including Prof. Fly, and several books by authorities were on the press. The "science of locating people in their own homes" had come into real existence. Bloodgood said he had been a charter member of one of the prominent luncheon clubs in Santa Ana, but recently had resigned to devote more of his time to the Santa Ana Realty Board, whose scope, he declared, was broader. The realtor's knowledge should be broad, the speaker indicated, including everything from the legal instruments used in the business to the nature of solicitors. William R. Herren, field secretary of the National Assn.'s of Reality to the life and achievements of clal numbers," of the evening, Herren is touring the State with President Bathoug, and President Hargrove by good fortune secured his aid on the program. Herren pointed out the need of "telling yourself to the lady". Every realtor in his courting days had performed one of the clearest pieces of salesmanship of his whole life. He should remember, Herren indicated, that the lady was the home and you had, when disclosing it a house, to tell her." One can't stir up much of a revolution in a land where the middle class buys until Infotainment.

The pages of history are going to be turned back half a century in the near future in Washington, D.C., when that city sees a caravan of prairie schooners of pioneer days rumble down Pennsylvania avenue. These schooners are now headed for the state capitals of many states under the auspices of farm and tax organizations, spreading a plea for lower taxes. From the state capitals they will be shipped to Washington for the demonstration there. IS "WINGED FOOTED BOB" ON HIS WAY BACK? Bob Besucher in action and close up Bob Besucher, former famous Ginci Red star and for years the holder of the world's base running title, may be on his way back to the big show.
