GRASS VALLEY LAUNDRY and DRY CLEANERS . 111 Bennett Street Grass Valley honiplele LAUNDRY SERVICE OUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS: By CLAIR ENGLE Grazing Fee Error Admitted A hearing was held last week on H. R. 8821, authorizing reimbursement to the county governments for the moneys which over the past 25 years have been illegally diverted by the’forest service. The general accounting office, which is the federal agency charged with the. responsibility . for okaying the legality of all federal fiscal transactions, appeared before the committee and testified that the action of the forest service in diverting a portion of the forest receipts from grazing was illegal. The general accounting office rather sheepishly admitted that:it should have caught the error and required the forest service instead of placing these moneys in a special fund to put them in the treasury where it belonged and where the county governments would have received their full 25 percent for roads and schools. This testimony without question establishes a legal basis not only for congress to authorize reimbursement to the counties, but for the -respective states to bring suite in the court of claims for the amount of these funds going back six years. There is a $ix-year Statute of limitations on actions in the court of claims. Since the illegal diversion of these funds goes back over a period of 25 years, it was thought better to introduce a special bill and get the whole matter cleaned up. in one transaction. The total amount of money. due to’ the counties mostly in my district, is the sum of $126,000. Mining Bill Held Up week by a tie vote refused to permit floor consideration of a new bill I have introduced providing for government participation in exploration and development_of— critical. and strategical minerals and metals. Apparently, any assistance to the mining industry this session is a very thin hope. Strangely enough, the men on ‘the ‘rules~committee voting against this necessary assistance to the mining industry, which is vital to our national security, are the beneficiaries in their own districts of huge subsidies for cotton, tobacco, peanuts and other agricultural products. With the Korean war dramatizing the dangerous position of the U. S., it would ‘seem that even more. serious consideration will be given to safeguarding the position of this country on these critical and strategic minerals and metals absolutely essential to our survival ‘if we get into an all-out shooting war. Mining Work Period Extended The president has signed into law S. 3639 which extends until Oct. 1, 1950, the time in which claimholdeérs ‘may. perform their assessment work for*the current year. The measure also provides that assessment work or improvements requiréd for the year ending July 1, 1951 may be commenced. immediately following July 1, 1950. This action permits the claimholder to perform his year and the next fiscal year at} the same time.

FOUR INJURED IN AUTO CRASH SATURDAY “Four local. persons were in jured Saturday night in a broadside collision on the Nevada CityGrass Valley highway between cars driven by Edward Deschwanden and Mrs. Ruth Wood, both of Nevada City. Bertha Doppelmayer, passenger in the Wood vehicle, was most seriously injured and was only one hospitalized. She suffered lacerations and bruises. Gene Pierratti, a passenger in the Deschwanden car, and both drivers received minor injuries. Deschwanden was cited for reckless driving. According to the report of the California highway patrol, the accident occurred near the Spring Hill development after Deschwanden .tried to pass on the right hand side while traveling towards Grass Valley, and the car went out of control when it hit the gravel shoulder and was whipped across the highway to be struck broadside by the Nevada City-bound Wood car.

Kinter, both of Grass Valley, have been awarded. the. Bronze Vail medal. . The action was taken by the 1950 regional committee of the Theodore N: Vail memorial fund. The story of the episode which appears in the Pacific Telephone magazine follows: “Charles Smith and Glen Kinter were returning from. a work assignment on the afternoon of Nov. 4, 1949, when they. came upon a light freight truck that had gone over a seventy-foot embankment near North San Juan. “Sensing a bad. accident, the two men hurried to the overturned. truck to find the driver pinned in the cab of the machine, seriously injured. They quickly attached a winch line from their company truck to the cab of the wrecked vehicle in order to remove pressure of the. wreckage from the injured man. Then using a chain hoist and slings they succeeded in pulling the cab into a position so that the door could be cut away with a hack saw and bolt cutters. The injured driver was then removed from the wreckage, and had. been carried only a short distance when the truck burst into flames and was totally demolished. “By their initiative, prompt and intelligent action, Kinter and Smith saved a human life. Their efforts. in the interest of the public. exemplified the finest traditions of the telephone service.” JOHN P.
