Passed over possibly in the flood of more spectacular meeting the country’s war emergency food needs, Here are the specific allocations which have green light to all-out construction on the big project: The full importance of Central Valley's appropriation victory is not solely reflected in the amounts voted. Of more basic importance is the fact that the allocations not only insure rapid completion of dams and power plants, but also give assurance that canals will be built to get the’ water to the land. Congress, at this session, recognized the nation’s vital interest in maintaining and increasing California’s farm production capacity—and the appropriation of $7,000,000 for the FriantKern Canal was voted on this basis. In January of this year, there was no reclamation program of any consequence before congress; work was proceeding only. on a few power phases of various projects and it appeared that irrigation projects were to go begging, despite urgent appeals from Washington for increased farm production. For changing the condition and winning recognition of the state’s needs, California is indebted to Rolland Curran, James Fauver and other leaders of the Central Valley AssocElliott of Tulare and Albert E.

In this historical drama for Italy one thing appears clear: very few tears will be shed by the Italians for the passing of Fascism. Tears are reserved for the innocent victims of this tragedy forced on Italy by the imbecility of Fascism.”’ There has been a good deal more grace in the attitude of the Italian people themselves toward our invasion forces in Sicily than might have been expected from the sworn enemy. It is evident that L’Italia is correct in the belief that the Italian people are surfeited with Fascism, sick of an Axis partnership that makes them party to trained Nazi bestiality, weary of domination by dictators who strip their country not only of . men and material welfare but of those most precious human . possessions, national honor and pride. NEWCOMERS, TAKE CARE! Growing carelessness by smokers in disposal of “hot” tobacco from cars is reported by the California State Automobile Association. This is attributed in part to the thousands of new arrivals who are unfamiliar with California's long dry! summers and with state laws prohibiting tossing of burning materials from moving vehicles. Motorists, by carelessness, should not become “unintentional saboteurs’ by endangering natural resources and farm crops so vitally necessary in the prosecution of the war. The danger of forest and brush fires is greater this year by _reason of the unprecedented brush, weed and grass growths and by manpower shortages in state and county fire fighting agencies. .
