OLSON PRESSURE By CLEM WHITAKER For ways that are tough and deals that are rough (and that’s brash understatement!); the closing days of the 1939 State Legislature shattered all precedent and figuratively rocked the dome on the massive grantewalled Capitol. The terrific shellacking that Joe Louis customarily administers to his luckless opponents: isn’t a circumstance to the beating that Governar Olson, together with his supporting But at the final bell, the legislators were still on their feet (at least most of them), exhausted but triumphant —and the governor and his aides had been knocked clear out of the ring. It was that kind of a battle! For political slugging, gouging and hitting below the helt, it surpassed anything ever seen in the halls of a California legislature, at least during this writer’s 20 years of observation. Several legislators were carted away to hospitals, due to sheer physical exhaustion; reputations were se ‘GROUPS BEATEN jand State patronage and other State groggy, punch-drunk lawmakers as he fought bitterly to save some of the remnants of his administration program, mangled; purges were threatened perquisites were covertly traded. The governor’s office, in fact poured on the “heat”? until Sacramento’s ‘shimmering streets, with the temperature at better than 100, seemed cool and refreshing by comparison. The governor bowed to defeat, however, on both the relief issue—where his demands for bigger appropriations had the support of the Workers’ Alliance and _ other powerful “pressure groups’’—and on the Pierovich bill to unfreeze $170,000,000-in revenue bonds voted for the. ‘Central. Valley Water Project, which the administration wanted to use to launch the state on a huge program of public ownership power development. Taxpayers “back home,” backing up the economy block in the legislature, delivered the knock-out punch to the governor’s big relief proposal. And farmers of the Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys, rallying to the support of the Central Valley Project Association, beat down the Pierovich bill. The charge of proponents of the Pierovich bill that the opposition came solely from private power companies blew up on the floor of the assembly when a letter was read from the Central Valley Association placing the sponsors of*the big project on record against-the bill and deHAVE STIRRING From the days of the old wooden sailing frigates to the present time,
exciting routine aboard ship from reveille to taps. Like the bluejackets of the navy, their daily tasks conform to a precise. and extremely interesting schedule. : Time was, according to Postmaster Betty Martin West, when the soldiers of the sea were familiar with the use of pike or cutlass, or manned the fighting tops to harass enemy gunners. Boarding and _ repelling boarders and the close range at which naval battles were fought made the musketry fire of the marines a valuable element of combat. (Modern marines are an important unit of the ship’s gunnery department. They are usually assigned to either the secondary or anti-aircraft batteries, and sometimes to both types. They take part in regular target practice at sea, and handle their own guns with the same skill as that of the bluejackets who man the mai ‘batteries, . : They are trained and equipped to land, either on a _ hostile shore against opposition, or for the purpose of protecting American livés and property. The life of a marine is one of constant preparation for some unforeseen emergency. Hammocks are disappearing from our modern warcraft and most marines use either cots-or folding bunks which may be set:aside when not in ‘use, as all space on a ship is needed. Routine affairs such as eating, ing and equipment shipshade,. are managed with a maximum of sanitation and cleanliness. Landlubbers are awkward aboard ship, so every marine is given training at a sea school on either the east or west coasts before he goes to sea. He learns the drills, duties, customs and terms of the sea before he steps aboard a battleship or cruiser, and is quipped to handle his various tasks in seagoing fashion.
