What gifts ‘will he bestow upon distraught humanity?. What will his mission be? I see the Christmas Spirit at the midnight hour of his advent. I see him standing upon some lofty height gazing out over the raging maelstrom of hate ‘and strife into which, nation after nation has been drawn since last we felt his gracious presence near. . see his once smiling visage marred by lines of pain and sorrow. I see his kindly eyes bedimmed with tears. I wonder how we may best welcome the Christmas Spirit to a world whose ways have grown so strangely foreign to his own. Perhaps by hiding our own bewilderment and pain, by ringing the sweet old bells and uttering the same joyous greetings, by recapturing in so far as we may, the merriment of the season—its tender kindness and its tolerance toward one another, and to all the world. : _ Surely, by casting aside our doubts and fears in the assurance that conditions which now appal us, cannot last indefinitely. Right will ultimately rule the world of men, truth. honor and justice must finally prevail. The star still shines above the darkest cloud; above the din and clash of arms, we may, if we will but listen, still hear the silvery overtones of peace. “Sorrow may endure for a night, but joy cometh. in the morning.” I wonder what that little unclothed cherub, the New Year will think of this troubled world. Will he refuse to take over until given a rough rider's outfit and a machine gun? Or will he stare about. wide eyed and say: “‘oh dear, dear, the times are certainly out of joint; adjustments are sadly needed. Now. if . can only induce these humans to help me, during the next three hundred and sixty five days, we can fix things up in good order, and have this broken down mechanism functioning as it should after its long years of trial and error.” How may we help the little bemused New Year, to perform his gigantic task of ruling the world during 1940? Simply by keeping our individual spheres of influence, no matter what their limitations, as sane, orderly, confident and peaceful as is humanly possible—never forgetting to, at all times. exercise those virtues of tolerance, co-operation and good will, which seem so essentially desirable during the Yule-tide season. May our messages of good will resound around the world. Merry Christmas—A glad New Year; “God Bless Us, Every One.” —A. MERRIAM CONNER. L A. DEMOCRATIC LEADER BLASTS OLSON. BRIDGES WASHINGTON, -Dec. 18. — The Los Angeles Times special Washington correspondent reports that a blistering attack upon Governor Olson, Harry Bridges, C. I. O. labor agitator, and “the radical element” in California was delivered today by Zach Lamar Cobb, Los Angeles attorney and Democratic leader, before leaving Washington for the West Coast. The recent defeat of the Ham and Eggs plan by the voters of California was “of far greater significance than is generally realized,” Cobb declared in a statement to the press. Terming the scheme “unworkable” Cobb said that it had been seized upon and supported by “radical followers’ of Harry Bridges in an effort to “use innocent people to extend his power for evil.” He declared that Bridges had exhausted the patience of San Francisco residents and had harassed the West Coast farmers “beyond _reasonable endurance.”” The overwhelming defeat of the $30-Every-Thursday plan was directly attributable to distaste for Bridges and his ‘‘communistic associates,’’ Cobb said. Foreshadowing a possible conservative twist in the 1940 Democratic campaign, Cobb also criticized plans of Governor Olson.to increase taxes for the purpose of setting up an operating structure for his production for use program, “The proposed tax increases would be wasted on the governor’s unworkable and fantastic production for use scheme,” Cobb said. ‘The burden of these wasted taxes would fall on the farmers, on business, big and little, and on the working people of all classes, all of whom are already ovértaxed.” , Cobb referred to the “Olson-Bridges alliance’ and’ predicted that California Democrats will combine to smash the asserted combine and “free California from the constantly . jrecurring menace of “destructive Nevada City Laundry _ QUALITY WORK SKILLFULLY DONE BY HAND Prompt Courteous Service Free.
