COOPERATING
By RALPH H. TAYLOR
Just as trouble often’ brings a
. family closer together, and brushes
laside all petty misundergtandings,
ithe troublous times born of our war
. for survival have brought a new
. bond of understanding and a new
degree of cooperation between urban
land rural districts in ‘California
. which may be of lasting benefit to
/the entire state.
. Califérnia’s farming industry has
. had frequent cause for complaint in
times past that the big cities, which
owe much of their wealth and development to a rich, productive back
country, were deaf to the problems
of agriculture and were all too
prone’ to profit at the expense of
their ‘‘country cousins’’ with little
regard for the ultimate conseqpences
of such policies.
The fault, to be sure, may not
have all been on one side, but irrespective of where the blame should
be. placed for bygone misunderstandings, it is reassuring to report that
the farming industry—during this
critical period, when it is beset by a
multiplicity of headaches—is receiving yholehearted, generous and intelligent' support from civic groups
in virtually all California cities, big
and “small alike.
Towns and cities adjoining farming areas have been quick to come
to the aid of the farmer in recruit-}
ing labor to meet crop harvesting .
emergencies, and in many other.
Ways. These communities, because
they are in closer touch with farmers and farm problems, have almost
always worked in
agriculture—and farmers, turn,
have usually displayed an understanding and sympathetic interest in
the affairs of the towns and cities
where they do their trading and
maintain many of their social conin

Of geater significance, under the
circumstances, is the fact that lead-!
ers and civic organizations in San,
Francisco ,Oakland, Los Angeles and!
other metropolitan areas are going!
to bat for the farming industry with
a new spirit of cooperation — and
with constructive action which reflects serious study and a real understanding of the farmer's difficulties.
The San Francisco Chahber of
Commerce, for example, has not only
been of material assistance in encouraging school children and people of the bay area’ generally to
spend their week ends and vacations
working on farms, as an aid to solving the farm manpower problem, but
through its agricultural committee
has also done its utmost to help out
in Washington in clearing up the
muddle of unsound and conflicting
orders and. directives.
This committee, chairmanned by
Adrian Falk, recently made public
recommendations for reforms in the
handling of the food problem which
are desperately needed—and both
the San Francisco Chamber and
many of the outstanding business
men of the city are now exerting
their influence with congress and
the various government departments
in Washington in an effort. to aid
in securing remedial action.
The San Francisco Chamber reported (and quite correctly) that
“The multiplicity of governmental
agencies, responsible for formulating, administering and coordinating
policies governing the production of
food and fiber, has created a hopelessly confused situation which tends
to limit production and_ interfere
with the distribution of agricultural
commodities.”” It emphasized, in its
recommendations, the vital need of .
unifying federal controls and regula-.
tions—and the equally important:
harmony with need of localizing’ administration 48 and sympathetic understanding. Our

ers to cope with their war time problems, and in seeking action in Washington to simplify administration of
the food situation.
California agriculture, this year,
will probably face the worst manpower crisis in-its history during the
‘peak harvest periods, but. farmers
will tackle the problem with better
spirit and better hope of handling
it because they know the people in
the cities are aroused and are preparing to pitch in and help.
Out of trouble has been born a
new unity in California, embacing
rural and urban areas, that is paying
real dividends—and we should do
our utmost to retain it during the
post-war years to follow.

CORPUS ASKED

Ryan, charged with driving an automobile while intoxicated and causing the death of Michael Nevins, has
filed a petition for a writ of. habeas

(Code, in that. no evidence was offered showing that the defendant was
intoxicated.
The writ is made returnable before Judge George L. Jones in the
Superior Court tomorrow morning at

CONVERSATIONS
E.R. Ingalls, local manager of
the tela@phone company, Said that
telephone users here would be _ interested in the statement by N. R.
Powley, president of The Pacific
Telephone and Telegraph Company,
accompanying the dividend checks
mailed today to common shareholders. Powley stated:
“Telephone demands for additional service, both exchange and long
distance, continue at new high levels. y
“Government regulations now in
effect further restrict the amount of
new material that may be used for
the installation of telephones, provision being made, as formerly, for
putting first the installation of telephones required for war and essential civilian purposes.
“The increase in long distance
traffic continues to, be extremely
heavy, espécially on the longer hauls
to and from war activity centers. Although every effort is being made to
handle all calls with efficiency and
dispatch, the unabated increase in
traffic subjects more and more calls
to. delay. We have, therefore, recently intensified our advertising
program urging that the public refrain, so far as possible, from making long distance calls to and from
war activity centers. We are also
urging the public, whenever circuits
are extra busy, to limit conversations
to five minutes in order that we may
be of all possible servict to others
who may be waiting. The voluntary
responses on the part of many patrons, which we gratefully acknowledge, bespeak a most helpful attitude
every endeavor is dedicated toward
our company playing its full and effective part in our nation’s’ all-out
war effort.

VETERANS URGE
JAP EXPULSION
SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.—Insisting on a California forever freed
from the menace of an alien Japanese civilization within its borders, the
Veterans of Foreign Wars, Department of California, closed its twenty-third annual encampment here
today with the election and installation of officers.
At the Encampment Memorial
Service Friday evening, John B.
Hughes pointed out that no nation
can raise a barrier against the radio
wave. He traced the source of prevalent and scurrilous attacks on American unity directly to Berlin short
wave broadcasts, and stressed the
fact that while the current campaign
is predominantly anti-Jewish, there
is great rejoicing today in Germany
over the Detroit race riots. .
Resolutions passed during the convention included Japanese exclusion
and ultimate expulsion; the use of
farm implements owned by Japanese
and now frozen; the repeal of the
Chinese Exclusion Act and the subNevada City Nugget — Thursday, July 1, 1943
