SACRAIMENTO, April 3.— What is going to happen to the budget now being debated in the state legislature? 5 That qhestion ig asked more frequently here these days than any other, especially since the assembly ways and means committee has given the $557,000,000 program: ‘a “rubber stamp’? recommendation. But those who are wise in the ways of the legislature declare that many days will pass before a financial program for the next two years is finally approved. To prove their point they cite the rapidly growing movement against the $63,900,000 tax increase schedule in the budget. At first it was reported that the. bill had been adopted but with this test vote measure delayed because of opposition the plans of administration leaders in the assembly are. declared to have gone awry. When a tally was taken on the deficiency measure, it was discovered that the bill would fail to pass and delay was decided to be the only alternative to a significant defeat. The tally was also reported _to have shown @ wide break in party lines and this was declared to have been due to a barrage of letters pouring in on assemblymen and senators alike from constituents aroused over the allSend EASTER GREETINGS with LENTHERIC PERFUMES TWEED, MIRACLE, SHANGHAI, A’BIENTOT, &!

Another ‘factor that seems to have cemented much opposition was the revelation that there is pending appropriation bills calling for an expenditure of $355,038,950 and the 1% per cent gross income tax. which would require payments of $500,000,000 during the next two years. Still another troublesome matter for the administration forces is already apparent opposition to the farreaching plans of Dr. H. D. Anderson, State Relief Administrator, and disclosures of upheavals in the various relief offices. The Anderson plans have been inconporated in a bill, soon to be introduced. Action of the Nevada legislature in reducing state taxes 20 per cent and the report that Indiana has been able to make a 30 per cent cut has also given ammunition to budget opponents who cite that Nevada has no sales, inheritance, gift and income taxes. Perhaps the ugliest words used thus far were “taxpayers strike” and they were hurled on the floor of the assembly by one member who declared that his constituents had charged him to defeat every propos2d salary and tax increase. Certain to be bitterly contested is the proposed $4,494,000 salary increase for state employees, as provided by the budget. Already the opposition legislators have reminded that the 1937 act authorizing the salary adjustments holds the proviso that they might'be made only if the financial condition of the state warranted such action. They contend that the fact the state has a cash deficiency of more than $30,000,000 and that revenue has been dropping is sufficient evidence of the state’s inability to pay larger salaries or to increase the number of its departments and variety of functions.

The voleano is Mount Mazama in southern Oregon, the deeply depressed crater of which now is Crater Lake. A study of the mountain and its surroundings shows that‘ the eruption, which collapsed the top of the mountain for an estimated depth of 6,000 feet, also threw out tremendous. deposits of lava and ‘pumice—so great in fact that the pumice layer still measures two and three feet thick 60 miles from the mountain, despite the floods and erosions of many hundreds of years of time., It was at this great distance that a numberof obsidian knives and other artifacts of an ancient Indian race were found budied deep under the pumice, indicating that their settlements had been overwhelmed. This site, along the Deschutes river, was disclosed in certain private development operations and proved a rich find for both the geologist and the anthropologists who were called iin. The scientific party was under the direction of Professor Cressman of the University of Oregon, who notified Dr. ‘Williams of the discovery and submitted a number of objects and artifacts for study here. : Previously a number of sabe-brush back sandals, some of them partly burned, and other artifacts had been found in a cave eighty miles to the east of Mount Mazama, in a region thickly covered with pumice. The scientists believe that a group of Indians sought the cave to‘ escape destruction from the fiery. pumice and lava engulfing the region. Before these discoveries it was supposed that the great upheaval of Mount Mazama occurred long before the advent of man on this continent. EUROPE BACK IN TIME OF CAESAR LOS ANGELES, April 3.—Problems which harass Europe today are almost ludicrously comparable’ to those which conquering Julius Caesar dealt with, iaccording to,Dr. Arthur P. McKinley, professor of history at ithe University off California at Los Angeles, in a special article in the current issue of The Classical Outlook. “Among current problems that loomed large in ancient life was the Teutonic question,’’ says Dr. McKinley. ‘‘This problem, with that of the Near East and of the Far East, is like Banquo’s ghost. One has only to think of the Hittite Confederacy, the Trojan War, Marathon, Thermopylae, Alexander, the Great, the Saracens, Genghis Khan, ‘the Berlin-toBagdad railway, the Austrian coup, and ithe partition of Czecho-Slovakia to own that these questions are, like the poor, ever with us.” In his Gallic War, Dr. McKinley points out, “‘Caesar sent the conquered Helvetti back home lest tthe Germans who live on the other side of the Rhine, should cross into the territory of the Helvetti and ‘become neighbors of the Gallic. province.’’ Suggestive, too, ithe University of of the part the Teutons have recently been playing in western economy are Caesar’s phrases in “accounting for the ‘bravery of the Belgians on the ground that ‘they live next .
