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 De i ee ee ie te ee Oe aaa a Oe a NEVADA THEATRE INC, WE REPAIR AND WE FIX Lawn Mowers, Locks, Vacuum Cleaners, .Washing Machines, Electric Irons, Stoves, in short almost anything that is used around the house or the yard, we can repair.

JR., ENTERPRISES tacts. go 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.

It should also be noted that the! splendid Agricultural Department of} the Los Angeles Chamber of Com-. 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. WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS ASKED IN RYAN CASE James Snell, attorney for Edward Ryan, charged with driving an automobile while intoxicated and causing the death of Michael Nevins, has filed a petition for a writ of. habeas corpus. Snell recites that the evidence offered in the preliminary hearing before Justice of the Peace (Charles (Morehouse in Grass Valley was insufficient to sustain the charge that the defendant was guilty of violating Section 501 of the Motor Cehicle (Code, in that. no evidence was offered showing that the defendant was intoxicated.

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. “There are now more than 4,000 of our personnel in the armed forees as compared with the more than 0 a yedr ago.” : FOREIGN WAR 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 ee , Smenesintiettnimeemedl Fore Resident of Grass Valley Dies in Oakland ‘Friends have received the news of the death of Mrs. Jennie Swanson in Oakland, Sunday.
