Will be postponed pending the conDOCTORS At a White House ceremony on January 20, which will supplant the customary inaugural at the Capitol, Franklin Roosevelt will be inaugurated as president of the United States for a fourth term. It will be not only an historic and_precedent shattering occasion: it wi!l be one of the gravest. oc_casions in the life of this nation. For Roosevelt will take his oath of office for his fourth term at a time when American men are dying in fearful agony, by the thousands and tens of thousands, that our government may endure, and that the torch of liberty may still burn brightly in a dark world. The wounded and the dying will not be there. For them, there is no pomp or ceremony, but only blood and suffering— and the crushing weight of war's indignities. The mothers who have lost sons, the wives who have lost husbands, and the fathers with fear in their hearts for their boys—they will not be gathered there on the White House lawns, as the na‘tion inaugurates its president. But their presence will be felt cities. and the school and other districts in the county are not inecluded. County and other local: -governments in California are, -on the whole, in good financial shape at the beginning of 1945 the taxpayers organization said. i The state government with a general fund cash excess which is expected to reach $60,000,000 by. June 30 and with $239,000,000 already set aside for post war construction and other obligations is als in fine financial condition: to face the post war: period. . rs Comment on the state, fhe association said, is made advisédly for action by the 1945 legislative session clusion of a study which is now being made in that area. In the meantime plans are being made for the acquisition of private lands within the win'ter range area so that the bitter brush and other forage necessary to sustain the deer herd during the winter will be protected during the rest of the year. The lang acquisition program will also extend the area “available to sportsmen during the open hunting sesaon. The scattering of the deer at this -timewill give relief until arrangements are made for better control of the herd in win'ter. Miners Foundry Makes REAL ESTATE INCOME .

Will be postponed pending the conDOCTORS At a White House ceremony on January 20, which will supplant the customary inaugural at the Capitol, Franklin Roosevelt will be inaugurated as president of the United States for a fourth term. It will be not only an historic and_precedent shattering occasion: it wi!l be one of the gravest. oc_casions in the life of this nation. For Roosevelt will take his oath of office for his fourth term at a time when American men are dying in fearful agony, by the thousands and tens of thousands, that our government may endure, and that the torch of liberty may still burn brightly in a dark world. The wounded and the dying will not be there. For them, there is no pomp or ceremony, but only blood and suffering— and the crushing weight of war's indignities. The mothers who have lost sons, the wives who have lost husbands, and the fathers with fear in their hearts for their boys—they will not be gathered there on the White House lawns, as the na‘tion inaugurates its president. But their presence will be felt cities. and the school and other districts in the county are not inecluded. County and other local: -governments in California are, -on the whole, in good financial shape at the beginning of 1945 the taxpayers organization said. i The state government with a general fund cash excess which is expected to reach $60,000,000 by. June 30 and with $239,000,000 already set aside for post war construction and other obligations is als in fine financial condition: to face the post war: period. . rs Comment on the state, fhe association said, is made advisédly for action by the 1945 legislative session clusion of a study which is now being made in that area. In the meantime plans are being made for the acquisition of private lands within the win'ter range area so that the bitter brush and other forage necessary to sustain the deer herd during the winter will be protected during the rest of the year. The lang acquisition program will also extend the area “available to sportsmen during the open hunting sesaon. The scattering of the deer at this -timewill give relief until arrangements are made for better control of the herd in win'ter. Miners Foundry Makes REAL ESTATE INCOME .
