Nevada City Nugget . 305 Broad Street. _NEVADA CIT CITY NUGGET _ Phone 36 A Legal Newspaper, as defined by statute. Printed and Published at Nevada City. / H. M. LEETE Editor and Publisher 1879 The Teck By H. M. L. Jr. It is downright unkind of Roosewelt’s henchmen to threaten the Am@rican public at this time with a third term for the Personal Ruler. This country “as already suffered ‘worry enough because of the expensive extravaganza of New Deal social and economic experiments. The American audience has tired qf the Administration’s song and dance. The public has discovered that the purwhase of tickets to the Roosevelt fantasy in government will keep it Paying through the nose long after the curtain has dropped on _ the show. Now, in the midst of all the tribulations of the Roosevelt depression ,we are ‘aunted by Senator Norris, wo clarions that unless the public stops opposing the man in the White House, the hero Roosevelt will be forced (against his will) to run for a third term. It is really more than we should have to bear. 4 pelea Of the evils which beset the United States, none is more disheartening than the possibility of an additional four years of government with Hyde Park charmer in the saddle. Roosevelt, blunder thowgh he does, fis not nearly as much a menace to democracy now, in his capacity of tight-rope walker between extreme Jeftism and genuine’ liberalism, as the would be to destroy the fundamental democratic precept of the two term limit There are few men of Presidential calibre, who could or would be as dangerous to the prinwiples of democracy as Roosevelt, ensconced and intoxicated by a third wietory at the polls. Surrqunded by his’ chosen circle of leftist advisors, Roosevelt. becomes a worshipper at the shrine of socialism. He has glows and loses his respect for ideals mot his own, when he hears the fanfare of victory. Roosevelt wants a third term, Responsibility rests lightly on him.

Roosevelt! will begin-ito believe his socialist’ syncophants if he is again reelected. Having broken one democratic precedent with the consent of the voters, he will consider that he has another mandate.f£rom the people to break the rest of them. The pinko intellectuals now consider it the fashion to brand as reactionary those who warn of Roosevelt’s dictatorial tendencies. Sane thinkers realize that it is tempting the devil of fascism to give tie added impetus: of a third term to a powerful exponent of government in business of regimentation, and of personal government, The: theory of the superiority of the incompetent ‘SCOOP’ THURMAN AGAIN IN RACE FOR ASSEMBLY Allen G. Thorman, editor of The Colfax Record and former Colfax postmaster, today announced that he . would be a candidate for the office (of assemblyman from:this district * . which comprises the counties of Ne* . vada, Placer, El Dorado, Amador, ; Calaveras, Mono, Inyo, Mariposa, Tuolumne and Alpine. The office is now held by Jesse Mayo of Angels . Camp, who last weke ‘announced that ihe would not be a candidate for the las ssembly but would seek the senate ' post formerly held by Dan Williams. “Scoop’’, as ‘he is familiarly known in Nevada, Placer and El Dorado ; counties, the three largest in the dis. trict, was the last candidate to oppose Mayo, losing to the incumbent in 1934. In that campaign, Thurman ‘$300. Nelson states that in 1936 tle carried both Nevada and Placer coun-. ties and received nearly half of the, vates cast in El Dorado county for . the Republican nomination. [. Thurman has been a resident 1a the district for the past twenty years and has been editor of the Colfax . Record since 1920. He served as post . master under the Republican admin-; istration for nine years. He is well . known in Nevada county for his in. terest in amateur sports, especially . baseball He has been seretary of the} Placer-Neyada baseball league since . it was. first organized in 1923.

The picture of a President . who had gathered to his breast more ! power+than any of his peace-time predecessors, trying to set aside every remaining restraint upon his powers, was one which brought upon his head a nation-wide clamor of. indiznation. The free American people had not yet approached near enough the state of Fascist peoples,’ to to destroy their judicial proteciion. Roosevelt's insatiable greed for power as evinced in the court packing episode, bred mistrust in formerly loyal Democrats. The greed for power will still: be there in 1939 and _ Roosevyelt’s Radical advisors will still urge him, on to the creation of a state based . on the exaltation of the inferier. 1939 CLASS RINGS .

THE GOOD EARTH THEATRESUNDAY —_—_—_— Interpreting the color, spirit and personality of China, in terms of Occidental music rather than the popular conception of Oriental melodies, was the unique task of Herbert Stothart,ieminent American composer, who was assigned to the musical score of “The Good Earth,’ costarring Paul Muni and Luise Ranier, and opening Sunday at the Nevada Theatre for two days. ; The picture is based on the péatseller by Pearl S. Buck and the stage adaption by Owen Davis and Donald . Davis, ‘“‘@ur problem ,was to accentuate i the dramatic points of the story of; ‘The Good Earth’ with music,’’ ex-} plained Stothart. ‘“‘Primarily it had_ to be music understood by the aame. people who understood the English book. “Straight Chinese music, which REVENUE FOR FOREST SERVICE IN XMAS TREES Tne Tahoe National Forest sold 14,340 Christmas trees to commercial dealers this season, according to DeWitt Nelson, forest supervisor at Nevada City.
