SAN BERNARDINO DAILY SUN. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1934 PAGE SEVENTEEN SOME GARS OF VALENCIflS YET Tl BE SHIPPED Grapefruit Said of Exceptional Quality; Final Shipment to Be Around Sept. 15-20 With grapefruit of exceptional quality having been shipped this season, the returns to growers will be greater than last, year, it was announced in Redlands on Thursday by the Redlands Select Groves through Stewart Hinckley, manager. Final shipping of the summer grapefruit crop is expected between Sept. 15 and 20.

The grapefruit tonnage represented by the cooperative will aggregate approximately 60 cars, Hinckley said. This block cf fruit formerly was marketed through cash buyers and commercial packing channels. SOME VALENCI AS A few cars of valencias remain to be shipped with the best returns In ieveral years In prospect for members of the association. Due to the additional grapefruit jiandled this season it was necessary to install a new type sizerthat would work equally well with both grapefruit and valencias. All power and heating units were put on one meter in order to take advantage cf a lower electric rate.

This move is expected to save the growers con-niderable money over a period of time. In reporting the success of the ieason, Hinckley said, "It is with a great deal of satisfaction that the members of the Select Groves find themselves with a marketing organization that is clear of all indebtedness. It Indicates that the policies eet forth by the board of directors have been sound and along proper business lines." NEW METHOD With the advent of the longer pools due to the California-Arizona citrus marketing agreement, the packing house has adopted a new method of pool payment. As fast us returns are received by the association they are paid out to the growers. In this manner, members do not have to wait the customary length of time for the pool to close in order to get their money.

The organization enjoyed the largest pack in its history in a sea-eon of light crops. This means that with one of the lowest packing re Cataloging Circulation Departments Kept Busy Hoth the cataloging and circulation departments of the University of Redlands libraiy have been active during the summer months under the direction of Miss Eleanor Symmes, librarian; Miss Esther Hile of the cataloging branch, and Frank Thompson, who has headed the force of student help. One of the most important projects has been the cataloging under the direction of Miss Hile, of 400 volumes belonging to the League of Western Writers. That or ganization officially has designated the Redlands institution as permanent depository for the league library. Townspeople will be welcome to use these books as well as students and faculty, the collection having been arranged in a special alcove in the library.

Exclusively the work of western authors belonging to the league, the volumes include fiction, poetry, biography, travel and types of non-fiction. Through the efforts of Repre sentative Phil D. Swing and hi; successor, Sam Collins, the university library was last year made a Federal depository for documents. Since that time it has come into possession of bulletins from almost every department and bureau of are national Government, and will continue to receive additional documents as they are issued. Among the varied subjects on which bulletins are available are those of the departments of education, agriculture, labor, state, the geological survey, bureau of aeronautics, American ethnology, foreign and domestic commerce, mines, census, and the Smithsonian Institution.

Documents now cataloged at the library include 2,239 books and 4.496 pamphlets of the Federal bureaus and 69 books and 1,332 pamphlets of the state governments. As a United States document depository, the bulletins in the Uni- RUTTERFIELD I STAKE In time Redlands will regret Its having insisted upon the state highway's passing through the heart of town, is the prediction of Lewis W. Butterfield, former president of tains in me vauey, me association he RedIandg chamber of commerce tmn'll Yia aVtlp in mnVa on naf a In 1 rp- funds to its members In cash at the end of this year's operations. With an increase in membership and acreage the Select Groves and its members are looking forward to the coming navel season with confidence, and the feeling that prices for citrus fruits will continue to show improvement. and now a resident of Los Angeles In Redlands on a business visit last week, Mr.

Butterfield stated that "improving Central avenue as a state highway through Redlands is in direct contrast to the trend of highway development throughout the country." "Everywhere one goes nowadays," he said, "he finds cities fighting to prevent heavily traveled roads from going through business dis tricts. The people who travel on these highways don't want to go through congested city intersections and the people In the cities don't want the additional heavy traffic trunk highways. They have learned a lesson that Redlands has chosen to disregard. "Take, for instance, Toledo, Ohio. There I found transcontinental highways purposely avoiding the city.

We didn't go within several miles of Toledo. If we had chosen to do so, of course, there were several good highways leading into Toledo from the main highways. Toledo didn't want the main highways going through town. "I can't see that Redlands has much to gain from heavy traffic through town. Truck drivers don't stop in town for gasoline or food, preferring to pause on the open highway somewhere, where parking facilities are readily available.

"Tourists coming into Southern California bring little business for cities like Redlands. Nine out of 10 are heading for Los Angeles as rapidly as possible. Few will stop in Redlands for hotel accommodations or other matters because in two more hours they can reach Los Angeles. "Motorists wishing to come to Redlands would come here, even if they had to branch off from the main highway and go a couple of miles. The others won't stop in Redlands.

So about all Redlands can expect from its through highway is additional traffic congestion, more noise and more traffic Kansas Alan Injured In tall From I ram Clarence Knowles, 39 years old, Dodge City, suffered severe scalp wounds last night in the Santa Fe yards, San Bernardino. Hospital attendants said he fell from a train. Newspaper Motif Is Selected for Party "Hobhy night" of the young people of the First Methodist church of Redlands took the form of a newspaper party Wednesday evening when Miss Carol Tracy was hostess to the group at 1115 Cajon street. Guests were required to wear costumes made out of newspapers and games using advertisements and clippings were played during the evening. Much of the party took place out on the lawn where Archie Tracy, city electrician, demonstrated his ability at stringing up lights.

Refreshments consisted of gingerbread and milk. MISS ESTHER HILE versity of Redlands library are available to every person In this congressional district. In March, the Federal Government, through the SERA provided funds for additional student help in the library. These funds were largely used in employing students to make a complete syllabus of all courses and an index covering the 4,000 titles in the reserved book room. During the summer session period a record number of books were in circulation and for the remainder I of the summer the library was open for post-session studies during restricted hours.

The cataloging has been the special propect of Miss Hile, who came to Redlands from the University of Illinois, where she had not only served as librarian, but taught courses in her chosen field. STREET IRK CAUSES IVES Plans to establish his office In the Emery building, near Eighth and street, Colton, sharing space, with the furniture establishment of J. L. Trent, were being considered yesterday, Constable John Henderson announced. Mr.

Trent is moving his store from its West I location this week, it was reported, in anticipation of the street widening work, with the building being set back. The Citizens National bank building, where the constable's office is now located, also is affected by the widening program. Until the bank building actually is torn down, he probably will not move, Justice of the Peace H. W. Finlay, who has been sharing the offices with the constable, announced.

At that later time, Judge Finlay is considering the possibility of moving the justice court to a room which he may add to his residence on North Eighth street, he added, although nothing definite along this line has been decided.

Ask Change to Use Cement Outfall Signatures of Mayor E.

F. Har- Colton, yesterday were ordered affixed to a lengthy agreement between the city and the United States of America for the sale of $30,000 in municipal bonds, with the Government authorizing a direct $10,000 grant toward the new sewage disposal plant. The agreement calls for the city's retirement of its bonds over a 30-year period, at the rate of $1,000 annually. First interest and principal payment will be made Aug. 1, 1935.

Besides a sewage disposal plant, of activated sludge type, the city also is bound to contract for construction of 2,000 feet of outfall sewer. SECOND AGREEMENT work on the water works project. It sets out the procedure followed by the council, and by what legal authority, in the voting of the bonds, and binds the city to engage a contractor for the project who will abide with designated NRA codes as to materials and the payment of wages. By separate action, the Colton council has taken steps to change its specifications on the outfall sewer to call for the use of cement concrete pipe, rather than vitrified clay. SUITABLE PIPE PROMISED In seeking authorization for the change, the council by resolution has declared its understanding that the California Portland Cement Co.

has a cement product available which will resist the action of sewage gases in preventing deterioration. Cement concrete pipe for the outfall originally was specified, when the project first was approved by the Federal engineers. Later the council decided upon the use of vitrified clay, not being aware at the time of the special cement being made at the Califor-nlt Portland Cement Co. plant for use in pipe of the necessary type. Bids for construction of the plant and laying of the outfall extension in the Santa Ana river wash, a mile southwest of the Col ton city limits, are scheduled to be opened next Tuesday night.

"It is agreed this can be worked out in a beneficial matter, but careful planning, with the cooperation of the SERA, should bring practical results."

OLD RESERVOIR REPAIR WANTED Estimates on the cost of repairing and possibly relining the old Colton reservoir, near the one being constructed, are to be obtained by City Engineer L. E. Newcomer this month, according to instructions given yesterday by the city council.

A check will be made by the firm installing the roof for the new reservoir, this concern owning equipment for spreading cement under pressure. According to the advice given Mr. Newcomer, the city probably could place its old reservoir in condition cheaper while the gunite equipment Is on the ground, rather than at some other time. It will be 10 days at least before there will be a lessening of the heavy draft upon the Colton city water supply, to permit drainage of the reservoir with safety, reported C. H.

Maxwell, water superintendent. The underground storage basin could be drained in two years to an extent that an adequate inspection could be made, Mr. Maxwell added. The repair plan also includes In stallation of a new concrete roof upon the structure, if the cost would not be found prohibitive. That a volume of water leaks from the old reservoir, use of which Is planned also after the gallon structure is completed, has been known to city authority for years, it was explained, but the extent of the requirements in halting the leaks has not been fully determined.

WALES WOULD STOP EXODUS Wales is seeking a way to stop the exodus of men and machinery to other parts of Britain.
