S. A., must have caused Thomas A. Edison's shade to shudder. In horse. That fleet—so sleek and powerful then and which _ it not fighting gamely to the last on the high seas, but huddled impotently in harbor, hiding, placing futile dependence upon a land based air force which American vengeance swept from It would not be in taste for Americans smashing defeats inflicted upon a foe who opened war honorably and fought war honorably. Admiral Halsey wouldn't do that. But it was of a foe he loathed he spoke when he declared his ambition to ride the streets of Tokyo on Hirohito’s white Now that Japan’s Imperial Navy has been blasted into an etheral navy perhaps U. S. airmen will strive to miss the imperial stables so that horse won't get disabled or killed. “‘Bull’’ Halsey has always done what he’s said he’d do.—Contributed. on last major remnant went down, to gloat over Edison’s day, American inventive genius and basic and applied science were the envy of al Europe. = These senators propose that government lead in mobilizing U. S. science for future national defense and welfare, setting up a bureau for the purpose. If this be done,*we respectfully suggest a lecture course in the applied science of government for all federal bureau job holders. We would suggest also that outside folk be invitational lecturers. A housewife; say, to’explain how unscientific it is, as well as exasperating when bureaucrats so mismanage rationing that butter turns rancid in stores because housewives are denied enough points to buy it. Congressmen might explain that it is unscientific government when laws they pass are so misapplied that their purposes are distorted—as when, some months ago, the department of justice sought to brand railroad managements as law breakers for doing what they were licensed to do by another federal agency, the Interstate Commerce Commission. This harassment of vital taansportation in the midst of war impelled a congressman to introduce legislation, the Bulwinkle bill, to curb inter-agency wrangling Over carrier supervision. He might lecture in the general field of bureaucratic overlapping, stalemating and confusion. So might many a farmer, manufacturer, business man and labor leader. Perhaps far: more ground has been lost in the applied science of government in this country than in the other branches of science the senators are concerned about.—Contributed: SE Sota Sei living in Nevada County. TEEN-AGERS AT THE STEERING WHEEL Although it has been shown time and again that the proportion of driving accidents is higher for older people than among teen age drivers, the vision of a youngster taking a corner on two wheels of his battered and broken jalopy fills us with horror. There is something awe-inspiring about a car full of high school kids ripping around town, which no amount of statistics can ameliorate. advantage. falo, the hog. “HUGE HOG IS SHOW TY A huge hog weighing nearly 34 of a to Nevada City 3 days starting Thursday, August 2. This big hog, weighing actually . ,465 pounds, is attracting considerable attention from the farmers in this vicinity and from the people The monster hog is conveniently displayed in an especially built trailer and the visitor is able to see him to the best A small admission ten cents, is charged to defray expenses. The display is open from 10 a.m. until 10 p. m. and everyone in the Twin Cities and the vicinity is invited to see BufEPMA nis coming to It is a comfort, therefore, to hear that the University of California has been holding a five day institute for school teachers to train them in the fine art of teaching youngsters the rudiments of safe driving. That is good. If the youngsters can learn to live longer behind the wheel than some of the rest of us, that is a net gain. But how about the oldsters? We have been nursing the old car for years. Fewer of us go shorter distances at slower rates than we used to do. But all the new designs of cars suggest more traffic at higher speeds. And we must admit it would be fun to let out thé car on a nice smooth road some day. But all this spells more accidents, injuries and deaths after the war is over. What we'd like to suggest is that the university think up something which will teach, not merely the youngsters, but all of us, how to keep alive in the new age of speed and new cars. Do you suppose the university can do this? It would help.—Contributed. ; ~ FARM NEWS MEAT TO MARKET — Nevada County farmers are requested to grade their cattle and promptly market them as they are ready. Meat is urgently needed.
