California’s prosperity as well as her future role in military and economic affairs is vitally involved in the extension
of America’s frontier beyond our continental borders. Oceanspanning planes have shrunk the seas as natural defenses. To
keep our ports and inland cities safe from destruction, defensive air bases and naval bases must be maintained hundreds of
miles beyond the ocean horizons.
Already the State Department has warned Eurone that
no transfer of possessions in this hemisphere will be tolerated
among warring powers. America—with the navy in readiness
—is watchine St. Pierre and Miquelon. French islands off
Newfoundland. Guadaliupe and Martinique, in the West Indies, and French Guiana in South America. !
Yet the main concern of America lies in the ereat Pacific
area. the vast unexvloited area for trade expansion. Here
America must extend her island frontiers. or resign her share
ofa fabulous empire of commerce to ambition-driven Japan.
On November 5, Hawaiians will record their sentiment on!
American statehood in a plebiscite. Already Filipinos. frightened at the Jananese orcre are regretting their demanded promise of romnlete indenerdence from the United States. Not
only the cecuritv of American interests in the Orient. but the
safety of the Pacific Coast, depend upon new cutposts on outlying island frontiers.
When the frontier moves to sea, California’s temporary
rearmament prosperity—booming with each week in expandtional recognition and aclaim. Her memory should lie enshrined in our hearts and be kept alive, that it may enrich and
inspire our own.and future generations. . -Lola Montéz has her theatre, Lotta Crabtree her fountain;
May the avpreciative citizens of northern California never relax their efforts until some beautiful and fitting memorial has
been erected in honor of our own, our beloved Emma Nevada.
I wonder why people in conventions assembled, act so
much like human beings; I suppose it is natural for them to do
so. brt sometimes ene wishes they wouldn't. There’s that republican convention for instance; with the world all awry and
the nation facing a crisis, we hoped for something out of the
ordinary from that notable gathering. Well, we goto it in part.
To be sure there was a great deal of old fashioned oratory, vituperative and promisory, much whoopla, hullabaloo

Hilter Isn’t Funny Any More .
Hollywood rumors that ““The Dictator,’ Charlie Chaplin’s long awaited comedy on the absurdities of totalitarian
autocrats, may: be postponed indefinitely, indicate as nothing
else could the belated realization in this country that Hitlerism,
while. grotesque, is grotesquely revolting rather than grotesquely amusing.
Hitler’s gutteral ravings over the radio, his preposterous
lies in the name of statesmanship, his ridiculous floutine of all
peoples who aren’t “German Aryan’’, were typical grist for the
mill from which American humor is made—prior to the inand confusion—and often the listener in wondered if the delegates were the intellectual cream of a great party, gathered
together for the purpose of selecting a leader, and charting the
future destinies of the republic, or just a mob of human childowned the Walls of Jerico.
However, there were of

credible discovery that the German nation had taken him serthe war machine Hitler wanted. Now, as Hedda Hopper, Hollywood columnist writes. “It will take a generation before any
of us can laugh at Mr. Hitler. Like England and France, Char.
lie waited too long.’ The loss of a great picture would be not
only Charlie Chaplin’s but the public’s as well; for America
loves to laugh, and Chaplin is its master comedian. But the
theme based on a man who has drenched Europe with innocent blood and blackened it with despair can have no room
for an American smile. Hitler isn’t funny any more.—Contributed.

His memory will keep.
I wonder if that isn’t just about the most foolish bit of
speculation ever indulged in by a reasoning human being. Still
it is a fact that historians, biographers, novelists and the reading public often stress the vagaries of certain notorious persons, while passing lightly over the careers of much more
worthy celebrities.
What stacks of books, pamphlets and articles have immortalized the exploits of Joaquin Murrietta; there are many
Californians who know more of Joaquin the desperado than
they do of Joaquin, the poet.
oming nearer home, are we not exceptionally well versed in the history of that exotic pioneer character, Lola Montez? We certainly are; moreover, there is a theatre named in
her honor and the house in which she once lived is still pointed
out to eager, interested tourists.
We know more of Lola Montez than we do of Lotta
Crabtree and we know more of Lotta Crabtree than we do of
Emma Nevada—and this not well. :
Emma Nevada was, and still is our own. An American,

California; this glorious woman, a devoted wife and mother,
