Not including fruit purchased here and carted off to be packed elsewhere, Anaheim packing houses for several weeks past have been employing approximately 877 persons, including packers, pickers, office clerks etc., and paying out weekly approximately $21,390. These, while not the absolute maximum totals, are close approximation to the peak figures. With shipments last week of approximately 450 cars from No. Orange-co including exchange or association and independent houses all the way from Olive to La Habra, but excluding Garden Grove, the big valencia orange belt supplied more than 20 per cent of all the citrus fruit from California and Florida, including grapefruit, consumed in the United States. The figures for the country as a whole are available only for the weekend June 18, when 2311 cars were shipped. Of these So. Calif. shipped 1459 cars of oranges and 478 cars of lemons; central Calif. 75 cars of oranges and no lemons; while the northern belt made no shipments. Florida shipped 148 cars of oranges and 151 of grapefruit. Taking oranges alone, No. Orange-co supplied nearly 25 per cent of the total oranges sold in the country at auction. Last week Orange-co valencias twice brought the record figures of the season, $7,30 per box. They have topped the market almost daily since the valencia season opened. DOZEN HOLDUPS IN L. A.

WALDORF ASTORIA HOTEL, NEW YORK, June 23.—Burying the political hatchet for the sake party unity and the candidacy William G. McAdoo, the California delegation late today rejected Isidor Dockweiler, nation-committeeman. There was nothing else for it to do but consent," said one of the leading opponents to Dockweiler. "The San Francisco delegates had too many votes for us and we determined to sacrifice our personal opinions rather than hate a deadlock in the delegation." NEW YORK, June 23.—International dissension of major provisions divided the California delegation late this afternoon and is viewed with considerable form by the McAdoo forces. The dissension revolves about Isidor Dockweiler, national committeeman of Los Angeles. A motion headed by Gavin McAdoo San Francisco is determined to select Dockweiler while every member of the So. Calif. delegation, with the exception of Miss Lloy Galpin, is emphatically opposed to Dockweiler's re-election. When the delegation met in rooms in the Vanderbilt Hotel, it was seen that there was present a sufficient number of Dockweiler-McNab delegates to re-elect Dockweiler so a number of the So. Cal. delegates precipitately walked out. The action of the McNab contingent was branded by So. Calif. delegates as "disloyalty to *McAdoo." An agreement had been reached en route to New York, delegates said, privately that no action would be taken toward the re-election of a national committeeman for California until the supreme question of a nomination had been settled. But when the delegation reached New York, the delegates confided, McNab and his friends were said to have learned that the re-election of Dockweiler was not favored by the McAdoo forces. Then the delegates said McNab and his friends immediately determined to rename Dockweiler, realizing, the delegates said, that if McAdoo is nominated, Dockweiler's re-election would be impossible.
