This is the year and the season, with the state primary less than two weeks away, when California not only has ears attuned to the hum of an accelerating business dynamo, but also to the voices in the political arena. But a word to’the wise on that score is sufficient, for they know one vote in the August primary is worth a dozen in November. On the last Tuesday in August each voter’s ballot can go to the man of his choice. But if he shirks his duty: until November, he will find his choice restricted to those nominated in August, leaving a Hobson's choice. i This year the voter's responsibility is doubly important. . With the business index swinging upward, the need of rep-_ resentatives to carry that upturn through to completion is imperative. California, like other states, can ill afford to place the management of its affairs in the hands of those bent on furthering impractical proposals and pet peeves. We have alreary heard of the super-spending plan of the senator who wanted to build some eight billion dollar roads, the super-taxing scheme of Rep. Patman to disrupt retail distributive systems and disorganize the achievements of lowcost mass marketing, the super-censorship plan of a congressman to establish dictatorship over the press. But the last-chance voter has small cause for complaint if similar foolish schemes arise in the future through his failure to help elect more enlightened representatives. August ~ 30° is more than a week away—time enough for every registered Californian to make it a must-vote day.—Contributed. t a Our Prioeless Heritage All too often in this busy world the few really important things are neglected. To us in America our most priceless possession is taken ‘for granted. It is, as everyone knows when he pauses to think, the right to freedom of speech, freedom of the press and freedom of individual action. But it has ever been that distant pastures seem the green-est. And for the same reason there are always those among us who forget that the greatest privilege in the world today is to be an American citizen. They overlook that other people would pay money for this privilege which they received at birth. : And, having overlooked all this some people think that the government in other lands is better than our government. To them our institutions are outmoded. They are constantly proposing some change. But perhaps the best answer ever given to one of these Ism Groups was given straight from the shoulder the other day from a speaker’s platform. The speaker was) defending one of the greatest organizations in America from a scathing attack which questioned its sincerity of purpose. In the midst of this defense the audience hissed. But in a moment the jeers were turned to ringing applause. For the speaker said: “The only right you have to hiss me is because this is a free and untrammeled democracy. If the principles of some of these professors were to be adopted, you could ‘not hiss me and I could not talk like this.” In those two sentences the speaker had removed the foundation from all the Isionism in the world except the Americanism of freedom of individual rights.—Contributed. at that time, according to Controller Riley.

This figure does not include employees connected with the University of California.

From the time California became a state the office of the State Controller has been the “pulse” of government activities, “With the state performing many new functions and the number of state employees nearly one hundred times greater now than in 1891, the need for economy in administration in the controller’s office is greater than ever,” Riley stated.
