TAYLOR The rural beople of “America, because they have been quick to object when natural laws were Violated by man made Mandates, and have always been zealous guardians of individual freedom, often have exercised @ Stabilizing influence on the nation and have Played a vital role in keéping the country from veering too far either to the right or left. Citizens ‘in rural areas, in keeping with that tradition, generally have taken their Partnership ingovernment seriously and have kept fairly close tab on trends in public affairs and on the acts of their public officials. In the hurricane of war, hewever, rural people, as well as city people, have put winning the battle for survival ahead of all else—and have acquiesced in the suspension of many domecratic processes, as well as the imposition of many artificial straints on the nation’s economy. The important consideration, now, is that rural America, as an integral part of its post war Planning, should take the lead in demanfing the return to normal, orderly governmeni —and a sound ecenomy—once the emergency has ended. That responsibility, theoretically, should not rest any more heavily on rural America than on urban America—but practically, rural people are better prepared, doth by temperament and environment, to reassume the obligation. The tempo of life on the farm, and in the towns and villages, is more normal than the hectic pace of the cities—and consequently, the rural public pulse should more quickly return to normal. Then, again, the public blood pressure is less affected by minority “pressure groups” in rural areas than in congested districts. And the . farmer, who must abide by natural laws in his daily life or quickly pay the consequences, certainly has every reason to know that man made dictums which run contrary to natural laws cannot long be tolerated in the nation. It is this writer’s opinion that = “J REAL I Winter Comfort THAT PAYS FOR ITSELF INVESTIGATE —THEN— INSULATE FREE ESTIMATES PHONE OR WRITE CARE THE NUGGET Julian S. Henry SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA farm organizations, and farm peo‘. Ple generally, must lead the way in a return not only to a sound, peacetime economy, but to a sound peacetime government, stripped of em. frsency war ‘ime powers—and genuinely responsive to the will of the people. And that is a job of post BIG CROWD FOR TENNIS CLUB war planning which will take grim . determination. as well as planning, . for power is a habit forming poli. tical drug—not easily given up. Already evidence abounds that federal departments, under the stress . of war, have assumed or have been . sranted powers whiich would destroy . individual liberty and democratic . government, unless revoked at the . first opportunity. . Trial by a jury of his peers is one} of the inalienable rights of every American citizens, but. there are innumerable instances foday in which government bureaus, commissions and departments simply “lay down the law’’—with the lowly citizen having no appeal from their decisions. Astounding proof of this was the recent decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia that orders issued by the War Labor Board are not reviewable by the courte. “It is clear and undisputed’, said the decision, “that no statute authorizes review.” That, certainly, is a case in which the people should act—and act promptly—to see that legislation is forthcoming which will guarantee the citizen his right to a court hearing. But that is only one case in many. While in other instances, the court reviews are theoretically possible, they have been made practically impossible. Another phase of postwar -planning to guarantee peace time recovery, politically as well as economically, is a thorovgh program of pruning out the deadwood and eliminating thousands of unnecessary bureaus and commissions—with their . millions of employes—so that tax payers can have relief from needless burdens. That will be a tremendous undertaking, for many war time governmental agencies already are seeking means of becoming permanenti fixtures. Most important of all, probably, is the need; when the war is done, of ridding the nation of rationing, price fixing, ceilings, subsidies and all of the other antifciial accoutrements of an artificial economy, born of war —but destined to survive in the post war period, if advocates’ of a ‘‘controlled econmy”’ can save them. Not only rural America, but all America has a real job to do, if government™is to rejurn to normal when the war is ended. And it must be returned to normal, if the nation is to avert the tragedy of economic and political chaos after the chaos of ‘war. a” Friends and relatives gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Uhrig Sunday afternoon on the lower Grass Valley road and made them honor guests at the celebration of their silver wedding anniversary.

CATTLE SLAUGHTER With heavy runs of cattle begin. ning to come to market, the War Food Administration points out that} cattle slaughter regulations in nowavy restrict the number of that may; be slaughtered. This fact is one thai. apparently has not been understood . by many people, Nevada County AAA . chairman says. Farmers may slaughter and deliver meat from any cattle or other livestock owned by them without any license or permit and without making and report of such deliveries to the government. Commercial packers and persons who slaughter livestock exclusively for others on a fee basis must obtain slaughtering licenses from WFAA and slaughterers of 50 or more head of cattle weekly or 300 or more livestock annually must turn in monthly reports to WIFA. Slaughterers wo kill more than 51 head of cattle weekly that produce “army style’’ beef must set aside a percentage for government purchase which must be federally inspected. Slaughterers must comply with OPA regulations regarding grading of the meat and c “‘ection of ration points. These regi ‘ions pertain to licensing, grading, set-aside for government purchase and collection of ration points, but they do‘ not restrict the number of cattle tha “may be activi:-: ian is seeing that the camp is kept . clean and healthy.

Under the program, maximum and minimum prices have been e5tablished for each of the «six principal grades of beef, and swhbsidies ranging from 50 cents to $1.45 a 100: pounds are payable on each of these grades: However, a packer may pay below the minimum prices on one oT more grades of eattlé then offset. this deficit by paying above the maximum prices set for other grades, and still qualify for the full subsidy payments on all ¢attle slaughtered. To do this, the average cost of all the cattle he buys must be somewhere wi hin the high and low limits, or deductions will be made from his subsidy payments. The Cattle stabilization program is entirely independent of the price support program for hogs under-which subsidies are paid to packers who meet the.support prices. Only beef now rationed is steaks and roasts from commercial good and choice grades. Al other beef is, ration free after the WEA food order os amendment removed all utility beef from ‘rationing on Awgust 13. Pork hams and loins went back on the ration list on that date.
