Passing automobiles were warned to slow down and steer dear of tho prostrate victim bv a motorist with a flashlight. The officer took a look, asked a few (lUestions and went for an ambulance.

Meanwhile the victim moved a leg, dazedly sat up and attempted to arise. He couldn't. Finally he was helped to his feet just as the ambulance arrived on the scene. Incoherently he explained that he had been struck by a car. One or two spectators vouchsafed the information that the man had been walking in the middle of the highway and that they had narrowly escaped hitting him.

The victim ventured a few steps but his traction wasn't any too steady, his knees wobbled and swayed. There was a titter rippling through the crowd. Motorists drove on. Since there was no record of arrest and no sign that anyone had been quartered in the city's concrete bastile, the name of the individual is deleted. It all happened Sunday evening.

Mrs. Freegnan, Mrs. Holly and Mrs. Whitacker are sisters of Mrs. Galbreath.

Mr. and Mrs. Galbreath came to Chino in the early days of this community and are now aged 85 and 83 years, For many years Mr. Galbreath was engaged in the mercantile budsness but since retiring has contented himself with his hobbies of attending several hives of bees and developing a castus garden which contains upward of 200 varieties of plants gathered from far and near. The grounds surroundng the palatial home present a picturesque setting which has intrigued many who are interested in the culture of cactus.

Advancing age has limited the activities of the couple to their home surroundings but happy gatherings there are nothing unusual and the dinner Wednesday, which marked a marital milestone seldom reached, was another joyful occasion for those present. The Champion joins with hundreds of friends throughout the valley in extending congratulations and best wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Galbreath.

Harry Porch this week began an intensive campaign to advance their best recommendation for retaining him on the county board. They were spreading the information that Porch received the largest number of votes in a three-cornered contest in the third district at the last primary election. Porch received the plurality, vote among the three candidates, but he and the next highest must go to the county in November for a ninoff in the general election.

Achievements of the present board in tax reduction, holding down the cost of county government, and the board's attitude on relief, are among the most often heard reasons for Porch's popular vote in the August primary. The program of the present county board must not be interrupted, is a frequently-heard argument. In the third district there is a general feeling that Porch has proved not only a district, but a county-wide, asset. J. Albert Cox, supervisorial candidate eliminated in the primary, has come out strongly for Porch, on the ground that a plurality of votes Indicates a popular choice.

Porch has served four years as supervisor, resides in the Mission dis- Opening today, with the plaudits of bu.sineas associates and others being expressed in advertisements and large baskets of flowers, the J. M. Fisher service station at the corner of Central avenue and street makes its debut under clear autumn and tonight will be flooded with light from powerful electric lamps which have been focused on the main structure. These huge flood lights will make the surroundings of the station almost as brilliant as daylight, a preview has proven, and will as a beacon to the motoring public on the highways of this community.

Mr. Fisher has named Art Humphries, who has been with him for the pa.st three or four years as mechanic and more recently as stockroom as manager of the station, with Martine Echito and Jack Lee assistants and Billy Bamum as helper.

All of these young men are energetic, likeable chaps wro have beon trained to handle the station in a most efficient manner. Five automatic ga.soline pumps, two large hoists and other equipment have been installed to provide prompt service to the customer.

1 Unconstitutional farm legislation und the s.iuanderiiig of taxpayers' money will ruin in the UnitiMl States if the present administration, with its reciprocal trade agreements, is returned to power, Thomas Erwin, of El Monte, declared ye.sterday. Erwin, pa.s-t president of the t-os Angeles County Farm Bureau pa.st president of the California Milk Producers Assoei.ation, is owner of the Califomia Poppies Dairies. He has just returned from a trip through the farming sections of the middle west and Erwin highly praises Governor Alt M. Landon's farm program aa explained in his recent speech at Des Moines. Iowa.

Hc declared that Governor Landon's denunciation of the reciprocal trade agreement, in.stituted by the New Dealers, brought hope and cheer to the American farmers who aro being ruined hy Roosvelt's boondoggling methods. These reciprocal trade agreements, said Erwin, are ruining the markets for the cattlemen of Califomia, Wyoming and Texas, the luntiher markets of the lumbermen of Oregon and Washington, the sugar markets for the southem farmers and in fact breaking down the entire domestic and worid markets for all agricuture.

I sat and talked not so long with a man who was liorii in Austria and i.s now a citizen of the United States and a red-hot one, too.

We weie discussing communism, fa.scism and otiiei- radical and their effects when he said, democralic governments of the world are face to face wilh the most sorious situation of their history.

Uecausi' of my birth I am well acquainted with these radical movements and I am telling you that thc of who have been swayed by agitators do not know what they are doing. We have but to look at the situation in Spain to visualize what can happen when two radical theories of government suddenly become the grounds for armed conflict. It is war to the death. The situation in Europe today is leading directly to another world war but this time it will he a war of govemmental theories, first between the communists and the fascists and then spreading to the democratic nations. Do not be surprised to see these nations allied with the fascists and oppo.sed to the communists.

It is my opinion that Russia and France will he warring against Germany, Italy, Austria and the Balkans and in due course the democratic nations will be drawn into the conflict. The outcome will be the destruction of one of the other of the groups." I There may or may not be anything to such prophetic declaration but thoughtful people will find cause for study in the words, nevertheless. An ardent advocate of "the more I ahundant life" recently paid a group of workers the munificent sum of 26 cents per hour for labor. Maybe he is trying to live up to the promises of 1932. campaign or whatever yon may call it, that "he gave a lot of peonle work" reminds me of another 1 "he kept us out of war." 1 wonder how many think the same as does one young feilow whom I asked the other day, referring to the f.oct thnt he was working for a private emnlover.

A. with all of its uncertainty." Congratulations to Jimmie Fisher upon the completion of his modem 1 service It is enterprisintf husiness men like Jimmie who make a city prosper in of itself and the Weeping Willies who can't find anything good in their home town. The growth of Central avenue business and the almost certainty that this main thoroughfare will ultimately become a state highway connecting the inland empire with the inland and coast routes to San Diego still further growth along the avenue. While it is not my intention to detract from Siocth street, which will always be a business section because of the fact that the schools are at one end and the S. P.

depot at the other, and with the adjacent industrials, Contral avenue is in time to become more and more the location for btisi- enterpri.ses. It is my opinion that street will never become identified as a business street more than now. There are aeveral things in the air which indicate that Chino will make important advances in the near future. Right now there is an acute shortage of housing facilities and a crying need for rentals of all kinds. This gives rise to the prediction that there will be a building splurge during the next few months auch as we have not seen for a long time.

Right now the building trades are enjoying a rather brisk business, with very bright pronpects for the future. Questions to ask yourself: The worker on relief: Why is it that relief administrators can draw fat salaries while probably just as capable, get a meager bit for my efforts? The farmer: Why is it that big ranch operators get hundred of thousands of dollars for not raising hogs or com and I get nothing hut competition with foreign farmers? The taxpayer: Do I want a con- tnuation of rising taxation? wittliHlMMiiHiil.
