FRIDAY, JUNE 12, 1931 THE NEVADA CITY NUGGET, CALIFORNIA ASSEMBLYMAN. SEAWELL EXPLAINS HIS BILLS (By Jerrold L. Seawell) ‘This is the third of a series of ‘articles of explanation of bills introduced by Assemblyman -Seawell and passing both Houses of the Legislature. Assembly Bill No. 1298 provides an appropriation of $55,000.00 for ‘the purpose of bringing to California in the spring of 1932 the winners “of the Skiing and Ice Skating events ‘to be held at Lake Placid, New York as the Winter Sports program in connection with the Olympic Games ‘to he held in Los Angeles in 1932.) The $55,000.00 hereby appropriat-_ ‘ed does not come out of the General Fund of the State Treasury but is a part of the premium derived from! “the sale of the Bond Issue of One! Million dollars voted by the people in. 1928 to defray the expenses of the Olympic Games to be held in ‘Los Angeles. This bill takes the $55,000.00 out of the Olympiad fund and places it ‘in ~he General Fund of the State “under the control of the Department ‘appoint a committee to carry en: the program proposed and spend the! money under the supervision of the Department. of Finasce. At is proposed to hold the Skiing events in the Tahoe-Truckee Area and the Ice Skating events in the Yosemite Valley. It has been estimated by expefts that in bringing the Champions of the Skiing events held at Lake Placid to California immedjately' following the contsets, will ‘mean that approximately 50,000 tourists will visit the Tahoe-Truckee area to watch the Skiing experts perform in exhibition matches. This would be of great value to Nevada and Placer Counties from an advertising viewpoint and would indicate to the world that California is a winter playground as well as @ summer recreational paradise. The fact that we were able to obtain this appropriation without one: cent of cost to the tax payer, and the advertising value to this district that will be derived therefrom could not be had by expending twice the amount ‘of money to obtain like results, and is of unlimited value to the people of Nevada and Placer Counties. Governor Rolph signed this bill we are assured that the Olympic Winter Events will be held as per the terms of the bill. 0. SHOWING MUCH ACTIVITY Sutter. Creek, Calif., June 12— The orebody recently disclosed by the north drift on the 300-foot Amador Star Mining 12 miles north responding to fevel of the Company property, of Sutter Creek, is development in pleasing according to Manager John Ratto. Since exposed about three weeks ago, it has been followed for $0 ft. by the drift and has widened from @ narrow quartz stringer to four feet between walls. Samples assayed show average values of $8. a ton in gold. Picked samples have yielded more than $1,700. a ton, it; ts stated. Two feet of ore averagtne $40 a ton is being mined in the sinking of a shaft, now down about $5 feet by P. F. Petersen and son, W. F. Petersen, one mile northwest. of Pine Grove. They are reducing the ore éxtracted in a three-stamp mill oa the ranch, about a quarter of a mile distant from their shaft. in their sinking operations they are occa-. sionally finding bunches of tigh grade rock of sensational value.

Rolph of the Cassidy bill providing for a new Bond Commission to help irrigation districts faced with the necessity of refunding their bonds, the problems of the Oakdale Irrigation District will probably be at once transferred to a hew body, in order that some gort of program can be worked out to take care of the $80, 000 bonds which will fall due July 1. The new commission will succeed the Bond Certification Commission but will have enlarged powers, intended to help the situation inthe Oakdale district. It will also be an official body which can be substituted for the Bankers’ Bondholders’ Committee recently organized by the San F'rancisco and Oakland bankers. The later committee still has not decided upon a report. a Director A. C. Pendergrass conferred with some of the members of the committee yesterday, endeavoring to hurry their report. The committee is considering three plans: first the one worked out by the board, second the one which provided for exclusion of some of the land in the district, but was found conld not be accompublished, and a third plan which would extend the payments for the refunding bonds over a period of fifty years instead of. forty.—Oandale Leader.
