WHITHER GOING
IS AMERICA?
By RALPH H. TAYLOR
This Christmas, all California—
and all America — have reason to
ponder: ‘‘Whither are we going?’’
During this season of good fellowship, it is time for the employer,
whether he be farmer, merchant, or
industrialist, to interrogate himself:
“Am I doing right ‘by my workers?’’
And it is an ideal time for the workCAMPTONVILLE GIRL WEDS

many friends of Miss ‘Marion Belyea

of her marriage at Reno recently to
Charles B. Hooskinson, of Auburn.
Both young people are residents of
Auburn where they expect to make
their home. The bride lived here a
considerable time attending the loca)

Groves family on Spring street. The
groom intends to go into private
business at Auburn.

The real and great damage done
by high water, however, is generally

Sacramento and Stockton at this

into large inland lakes. Barriers
since built in the way of levees along
their banks are only good up to a

Sacramento, for instance, means
flooding of streets and rene districts.

“The New Deal means well, we are

border on insanity, we must accept,
so they tell us, the resulting bedlam
in the nation * * as a part of the
1936 mandate. Never was the word
“mandate”’ euriously used. Can
anyone be surprised that industry in
every field is languishing; thar capital, or what is left of it, is paralyzed
with fear; that the spirit of enterprise quails before a government
apparently bent on oppression and
determined to throttle every creative
