Spare The Rod I’m In Uniform Within a few days now, California legislators will be resorting to their traditional prank of ‘‘stopping the clock” as they rush pell-mell toward the close of the 1939 session. Hundreds of bills: will be acted upon in that last hectic scramble, long after the hour of adiournment actually has passed, acBut “stopped clocks’ in the Senate and Assembly chambers will make it all of commendable accomplishment. For the first time in years: the constant increase in state expenditures has been checked. And new tax proposals—at least those which have reached a final roll ca!l—have been decisively defeated. This record for sensible economy and tax relief has been achieved, furthermore. despite a constant clamor from pressure groups and organized minorities for bicger governmental subsidies. And the legislators who have stood up under fire and saved California yfrom a new plunge into savandermania are entitled to the sinThe last days of a leviclative session, however. are the most dangerous of the whole session—and voters and taxpayers should keep a vigilant eye on eleventh-hour roll-calls.

Her answer: “America is my foster-mother. I feel that when your foster-mother has been very good to you, you should repay her with loyalty and alliegance. No one laughed at me when . came to class with young girls and struggled so with English _ words. Everyone was kind; everyone tried to help me. “That is America. “When you walk down the street, you cannot ‘tell whether someone is rich or poor. By dress and manner they are much alike.

Your attention is respectfully didected to the enclosed petition of ,; this Commission to~ the Interstate Commerce Commission on behalf of the agricultural interests of (California. . Recently the rail carriers filed new interstate tariffs proposing increased estimated weights for the transportation of all fruits and vegetables, including melons. which would materially increase the transportation charges of all such perishables to marketing destinations throughout the country. The Railroad Commission. upon protest to the Interstate Commerce Commission. secured the suspension of the carrier tariffs. pending an investigation as to the reasonableness of the charges. The Interstate Commerce Com. mission has set these matters’ for pubic hearing in San Francisco on July 5. 1939, and in Los Angeles on July 17, 1939. : This commission expects to appear for and introduce evidence on behaif of the growers and shippers of California during the aforesaid hearings. Much of the data upon which the Interstate ‘Commerce Commission will necessarily rely as to the economic and other conditions of the fruit and. vegetable industries must be procured, from the agricultural industry of the state. In the event there are growers and shippers in your district who may be interested in these hearings, the Commission respectfully requests that you ask them to communicate with us. Yours very truly, Railroad Commission of the State NEWMONT MINES SINKING SHAFTS FOR DEEP VEINS At both the Zeibright and Brown’s Valley mines sinking operations are being carried out. The vertical shafi of the Zeibright will be dropped from the 550 level to 1150 feet. The Brown’s Valley shaft will be deepened from 1600, as it now is, to 2,300 feet. Robert Hendricks, manager of the Murchie, Zeibright and SBrown’s Valley mines, reported that “from twelve to fifteen men were employed to assist in the new operation. The deepening of the shaft is not interfering with the production average, which amounts to 25,000 tons of ore for milling per month. Veins have so far not been found are being sunk, but Hendricks states that there is every indication that they exist in these places at these depths. The Brown’s Valley mine now emPloys seventy men and-is producing about seventy tons of ore each day. “No: Hunting or Trespassing” signs for sale at the Nugget Office.
