Jr., modest in his. rescue, was one of a large class] that took life saving lessons The question has recently been asked with increasing insistence through out the country: Can Roosevelt be re-elected? The more this question is propounded the uneasier becomes the Democratic leadership. To restore this waning confidence, which started on its downward course with the United States Supreme Court detision respecting NRA, the President will “swing around the circle,” reassuring, claiming and declaiming. We surmise that presently he will begin to lay the blame for New Deal failures on the shoulders, of the nine justices of the Supreme Court. We doubt the efficacy of this scape un. ;der Addison Jaynes at the Ne-. vada City municiual pool. In a recent test all boys were eliminated except five when young King won over all the others. The new pool been a source of great: pleasure to hundreds of children all summer, but with the saving of a life through lesson given at the pool by Jaynes. life guard, it would seem that the pool is worth much more than the pleasure it gives to the hundreds of boys and girls. has STATE FAIR GOES ON ICE . * (Cc.

Ray Ingels, director of motor vehicles, today made this optimistic report to Gov. Frank Fr. Merriam when he stated that from January 1 to July 31.a total of 1,899,109 pleasure cars was registered. This figure compares with the 12-month total of 1,941,969 pleasure cars regisiered in the record year of 1930. In the seven month period of this year, o total of 2,139;452 vehicles— including trucks, trailers, pleasure cars and motorcycles—ras registered. This figure compares with the record all-time vehicle’ registration of 2,145,474 made in 1981. An interesting picture of California’s motor’ vehicle registration growth is told in Director Ingels’ report, which shows that there were only 6428 all-type vehicles listed in the first report of the state department for the period March 22, 1905 to June 30, 1906. The state first exceeded the million registration mark in 1928, when 1,056,756 pleasure cars were listed with a total of alltype vehicles of 1,137,445. PARK STREET SOON TO.
