With this statement, made on his own initiative, Charles Eyga- Ask Report on “Big Five” Contributions WASHINGTON, May 12. A brand new political investigation was launched in the senate this afternoon by a resolution calling upon the treasurers of the Republican and Democratic national committees to report the amount of contributions received since 1920 from the "big five" packers or their agents. The resolution was sponsored by Senator Magnus Johnson, Farmer-Laborite of Minnesota. MODEL HOME WILL OPEN TUESDAY TELL ROTARY CLUB ABOUT Great Interest Being Mifested Here in Better Homes Week Great interest is being mifested in Anaheim in the absence of Better Homes Week. Dierker Built Home located at North Clementine at being Silences Any Calamity Howlers Left From Recent Dull Time The valencia season has never opened more auspiciously! With this statement, made on his own initiative, Charles Eygabroad, director of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, who for years has been watching the orange market, today silenced any calamity howlers there may be left after the dull period ended a few months ago. Eygabroad said he based his judgment largely on information reaching the exchange. He also corrected the more or less popular impression that auction sales are the criterion of price levels. As a matter of fact 60 per cent. of the exchange's fruit is sold at private sales and only 40 per cent. at auction. Frequently the auction market is used to dispose of fruit that has ripened so fast it cannot be held longer. Auction prices are usually lower than those at private sales. Reports today put the number of cars of navels still to go from California after this week, at only 200, while Florida, as reported, will close its season sure by June 1 including valencias. To return to Eygabroad's statement, the local exchange declared that the buying power of the east was 25 per cent. greater than a year ago at this time. "You can say that, generally speaking. It is 40 per cent. greater than two years ago." "I wouldn't want to contract my acreage now at $2 a box net. And I wouldn't want to see oranges at $6 or $7 per box, because then people wouldn't buy them." He expects the smaller valencias to size up at least until Aug. 1. Growers who sell their smallest oranges for juice are doing far better than they would other wise in his opinion. Eygabroad said that farm labor was much cheaper than a year ago and the agricultural communities were in a better buying position. Further reports on the frost in the northwest announced last week, show that losses were not exaggerated. The Oregon prune crop is 35 or 40 per cent. of a full pield, and apricots, cherries, and pears are under 50 per cent. TELL ROTARY CLUB ABOUT OLYMPICS Anaheim's participation in the drive to get out a good attendance at the tryout contest for the international Olympic games got its sendoff today when Mrs. H. S. Cochran, representing the Southland's branch of the American Olympic committee, spoke before the Rotarians at their weekly luncheon in the Elks' club. The tryouts will take place Saturday, May 24, at the Coliseum, Los Angeles. Mrs. Cochran, who was introduced by Tom McFadden, told her hearers that Anaheimmers should get back of Glenn Hartrantt, Stanford star in hammer, discus and shot put, and Charley Paddock, star spinner, both of them Orange-co boys. Both, it is conceded, will make the American team. The Olympic games, or at least the principal events, take place at Paris. Three hundred and fifty athletes from America will cross the Atlantic, and a fund of $350,-000 must be raised for their expenses. Whittier already has agreed to take a minimum of 400 tickets. Fullerton may take $1000 worth Anaheim's quota. Los Angeles Athletic club took $5000 worth and the Commercial club $1000 worth. Mrs. Corchran urged Anaheimers to purchase their tickets here. They may be purchased at Kemp Bros.' or the Heying Pharmacy, the United Cigar Store and the Anaheim Bowling Alleys. It will not be safe to depend upon getting tickets in Los Angeles at the last minute. A three-round exhibition bout by Jack Dempsey will be a feature of the tryout on the 24th. Fullerton, Brea and Orange already have been placarded, and Anaheim and Santa Ana will be at once. General admission tickets cost $25.60.

MORE TROUBLE FROM QUARANTI EST ORANGES FOR JUICE ARE DOING FAR BETTER THAN THEY WOULD OTHERWISE, IN HIS OPINION. EGABROAD SAID THAT FARM LABOR WAS MUCH CHEAPER than A YEAR AGO AND THE AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITIES WERE IN A BETTER BUYING POSITION. FURTHER REPORTS ON THE FROST IN THE NORTHWEST ANNOUNCED LAST WEEK, SHOW THAT LOSSES WERE NOT EXAGGERATED. THE OREGON PRUNE CROP IS 35 OR 40 PER CENT, OF A FULL PIELD, AND APRCOTS, CHERRIES, AND PEARS ARE UNDER 50 PER CENT. WASHINGTON WAS HIT AS BADLY AS OREGON.

Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, May 12.—At war with the White House over legislation affecting national finances, congress drafted battle plans today for the enactment into law of its own fiscal policies despite administration opposition. Three great fiscal measures—the Bursum pension bill, the world war bonus and the new tax reduction program—were en route to the statute book in the face of White House disapproval, according to all indications. A revolt started by coalitions of Democrats and Insurgent Progressives, was reported spreading to administration ranks for the avowed purpose of overriding the financial policies laid down by the president. The first test is due today or tomorrow in the senate on a reconsideration of the Bursum bill which the president vetoed. Its advocates, including some administration senators, predicted its passage by the two-thirds majority required to override the president. Similar action by the house was conceded if the senate fight proved successful. The new tax bill, into which the senate wrote the Democratic rates, meanwhile, was to be taken up in conference. REFUND FOOD DEBT WASHINGTON, May 12.—The house this afternoon passed a resolution directing the secretary of the treasury to refund a $1,939,-000 debt owned to the United States by Hungary for foodstuffs. The refunding would be similar to that employed in settlement of the British war debt over a 62-year period. $60,000 BLAZE EL CENTRO, Calif., May 12.—Fire, starting from a gasoline finance committee. DE HIELD Postponed Date for Big Exposition Probably Latter Part of June The fourth annual California Valencia Orange show will be held, as things look now, probably beginning June 28. A proposal to make an important change in the policy of the show, for this year only, will be considered by the C. of C. directors. It cannot be made public at present. Chairman Herman Stern of the executive committee, manager, admitted the likelihood of the show in June-July, but qualified his statement by saying that the abolishment of the pools of disinfectant on roads leading into Orange co and completion of preparations, which were disrupted by the postponement, must first be certain. Stern displayed a letter of recent date from Governor Friend W. Richardson, who advised against calling the show off. The Governor said: "I have your telegram and am very sorry indeed that it was necessary to call off the Orange Show in your county." "I personally doubt the policy of calling off the show on account of its effect in other states. It seems to me that if we go right ahead about our business and hold these conventions and shows that it will have a better effect on all concerned than to postpone them. All of the citrus fruit exhibits have been arranged for, Chairman Stern declared. The lot is levelled off, also. Some industrial exhibits have been withdrawn, but their places can easily be taken. There may be some delay in clinching arrangements again for the entertainment. FAIL TO PAY FOR HOME; MAY LOSE IT A superior court action scheduled to be threeded out before Judge F. C. Drumm Tuesday will involve his possession of a house and lot in Santa Ana. George Spencer and wife seek to oust W. C. Heaston and wife, sold to the Spencers in October, 1922.

WATCH THIS SPACE DAILY A complete change of French policy toward German occupation, reparations and international debts loomed up early today as a possibility as a result of the defeat of the Poincare parties in the French general elections today. Altho the returns are incomplete, indications are that the left bloc, which has been opposing the Poincare policies in the chamber of deputies has been victorious. The French people, evidently, are tired of Poincare's aggressive policies which have kept Europe stirred up for four years. During his tenure Poincare has built up the most powerful military establishment in Europe, principally in the air. Also it has been part of his program to keep French troops make any immediate provision for the payment of war debts and to negotiate military agreements with various powers surrounding Germany. Such agreements have been concluded with Belgium, Poland, Rumania and Czechoslovakia. Former Premier David Lloyd George of England has been one of the most severe critics of Premier Poincare and his policies. According to the British statesman, Poincare is the head of a powerful militarist group which is endangering the peace of Europe. Communists and Socialists in France have made similar accusations against Poincare. They claim he has adopted the same policy that the kaiser maintained before the world war when he built up the big- THREE OTHER PLANES TO PROCEED Commander of Flight on Way Back to The United States WASHINGTON, May 12—Major Frederick L. Martin, leader of the army's round-the-world flight, who has been in a series POINCARE TO RESIGN IN 24 HOURS PARIS, May 12.—Resignation of Premier Raymond Poincare within 24 hours and a complete revision of French policy regarding the Ruhr and reparations, is imminent today as a result of the sensational defeat of the bloc national in Sunday's general election. On the basis of figures given out by the foreign office this afternoon, the left bloc claimed a majority of 90 in the chamber of deputies. The official news agency, thrust which the government was making its announcements, admitted a majority of thirty. According to the foreign office, there will be 13 Conservatives, 118 Republicans and 90 left Republicans, totaling 227 for the bloc national. It requires 293 for a majority in the chamber. It is understood there will be 24 Communists. Members of the "left," the coalition party's opposing Premier Poincare, scored a crushing victory. The policies of this group were "peace, economy and international agreements." According to the incomplete returns, the left will have a substantial working majority in the next chamber deputies. Leaders of the anti-Poincare faction said there were many reasons for the strong support of the left. They claim that the French military has built up the most powerful military establishment in Europe, principally in the air. Also it has been part of his program to keep French troops in the Ruhr to guarantee indemnity payments, to refuse to leave a widow and three young children to mourn the death of G. E. "Jim" Mathews, motorcycle officer injured in a collision with a car driven by Pete Rueter, 224 Resh-st, Anaheim, last week, which occurred after an effort was made to save his life by amputating a leg, same as a shock to his fellow officers on the state traffic squad. "We will miss him. He was a fine officer and a splendid type of manhood," commented Captain Henry S. Warner, head of the squad, is giving a short but sincere tribute. Mathews died on the opearting table at a Santa Ana hospital today after his foot had been amputated previously and his second operation was in progress after gangrenous infection set in. Mathews, whose home was at Newport Beach, joined the traffic squad but five weeks ago. On his way home late Thursday his machine crashed into that of Rueter while the latter vehicle was turning a corner. Mathews' foot was badly crushed. FAST DRIVING MAY RESULT IN DEATH While her male escort, Hans Hansworth, 39 years old, of 305 matches, one of the most severe critics of Premier Poincare and his policies. According to the British statesman, Poincare is the head of a powerful militarist group which is endangering the peace of Europe. Communists and Socialists in France have made similar accusations against Poincare. They claim he has adopted the same policy that the kaiser maintained before the world war when he built up the biggest and strongest army the world has ever seen. COMMANDER OF FLIGHT ON WAY BACK TO* THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON, May 12—Major Frederick L. Martin, leader of the army's round-the-world flight, who has been in a series of mishaps since the start of the epochal trip, was ordered back to Washington today and the remainder of the flight will go on without him. The orders were issued shortly after noon and dispatched to Major Martin at Port Moller, Alaska, where he arrived yesterday after being missing and supposedly lost since April 30, when his plane crashed into a mountain top and was completely wrecked. General Patrick received a radiogram from Martin this afternoon, that the flight commander and his staff sergeant, Alva Harvey, are leaving Port Moller tomorrow aboard a Pacific American fishing boat for Bellingham, Wash. PORT MOLLER, Alaska, May 12--Back from the jaws of death, Major Frederick L. Martin and Staff Sergeant Alva Harvey of the flagplane Seattle of the American round-the-world cruise, today awaited instructions from the air service at this tiny cannery port after a series of experiences that will go down in history of air trail making as miraculous. Missing since April 30 and given up for dead by hardened Alaskans when the most widespread search ever conducted on Alaskan soil failed to uncover a trace of them, Major Martin and Sergeant Harvey walked in here yesterday and flashed the word to the world that they were alive and well. Major Martin and Sergeant Harvey left Chigikin about 11 a.m. April 30, headed for Dutch Harbor, where they hoped to catch up with their three companion fleets. A scant hundred miles west of Chigikin the giant Douglas plane, flagship of the globe circling cruise, in a dense fog and snow storm, dove into a mountain. It was completely wrecked, but fortunately, according to Major Martin, neither of its occupants sustained serious injuries. Then began a battle against cold, snow and ice. Our existence is due to the reserve supply of concentrated food which we carried in the plane for Members of the "left," the coalition party's opposing Premier Poincare, scored a crushing victory. The policies of this group were "peace, economy and international agreements." According to the incomplete returns, the left will have a substantial working majority in the next chamber deputies. Leaders of the anti-Poincare faction said there were many reasons for the strong support of the left. They claim that the French people are tired of an aggressive policy which keeps Europe in a turmoil and that they are opposed to an increase in taxes. It is expected that the radical Socialist party, headed by Edouard Herriot, will be the dominant party in the next chamber. Herriot was elected by a big majority in the Herrault constituency. Former Premier Briand was elected but General Manoury, a war hero, was defeated. Andrea Tardeau, former high French commissioner to the United States, was reported elected in the Seine (Continued on Page 3) Buy a Church Bond. Plain Dealer Classified Ads produce results.

FAST DRIVING MAY RESULT IN DEATH While her male escort, Hans Hansworth, 39 years old, of 205 Spurgeon-st, Santa Ana, was languishing in the county jail charged with driving an automobile while intoxicated. Mrs. Iva M. Cummings, 40 years old, a nurse of that city, was lying in a critical condition at the Community hospital suffering from five fractured ribs and a fractured skull. She may die, doctors said. While riding in Hansworth's roadster at 3 a.m. today, Mrs. Cummings, a widow, was thrown from the car when it failed to make a turn at Culver's corner on the San Diego highway south of Tustin. A witness who said the Hansworth car passed his just before the accident said that Hansworth passed him "as if I were standing still." Near East Relief Bundle Day Planned Tuesday in Anaheim Near East Relief Bundle Day is tomorrow. A cablegram from Athens advises of the burning of the Steamship "Ann Potter." 400 miles west of Batoum on the Black Sea. Part of the cargo was 356 bales of clothing sent for the refugees in the Near East. While the clothing was covered with insurance, H. C. Jaquith, overseas director for Near East, cables that no clothing can be purchased there. To meet this need the school children of Anaheim are to help replace that which was burned! Through the co-operation of Supt. C. C. Smith of the public schools and Principal J. A. Clayos of the high school, and Mother Superior of St Joseph's school, all school buildings will receive clothing tomorrow (Tuesday). Any passing school child will take a bundle. George A. Miller, representing Near East Relief, was asked: "What kind of clothing can be used?" Mr. Miller states that any kind, for children, babies or adults is most urgently needed. So long as clothing is still usable and fairly clean it is acceptable. The adult clothing is cut over by the girls and boys who are learning the tailors' trade. Shoes are repaired by boys wanting to be shoe-makers. Nothing goes to waste. Mothers and fathers of Anaheim school children are urged to co-operate and make this an expression of goodwill for the unfortunely overseas seas. A scout hundred miles west of Chignik the giant Douglas plane, flagship of the globe circling cruise, in a dense fog and snow storm, dove into a mountain. It was completely wrecked, but fortunately, according to Major Martin, neither of its occupants sustained serious injuries. Then began a battle against cold, snow and ice. "Our existence is due to the reserve supply of concentrated food which we carried in the plane for just such an emergency," Major Martin declared in announcing the safety of himself and mechanic. This food supply was undamaged in the crash and due to its concentrated form was readily portable. The two winged filers headed for the coast on foot and finally reached an abandoned trappers' cabin on the southernmost point of Point Moller Boy. There, exhausted by their battle against the elements, the two filers rested for three days. Below zero weather with frequent snows and high winds added to the hardships endured by the two lost filers. The crash occurred at an uncharted mountain on the Bering Sea side of the peninsula. The two men wore 12 days growth of board as they troked into the little cannery station here. This was one of the centers of search during the first few days that the men were missing, as it was believed in case of trouble Major Martin would endeavor to make a landing here or near here. The cannery vessels here made a careful search of all inlets on both sides of the bay but to no avail. Because of conditions they encountered the two filers in their long hike over ice and thru snow; were unable to make more than five miles a day. Even at this slow pace they were completely exhausted when they found shelter in the trapper's cabin. Meanwhile every possible agency was being utilized in a search for the two men. The coast guard cutters Algonquin and Halda and the coast survey ship Pioneer assisted by every available cannery vessel in the Aleutian peninsula (Continued on Page Two)
