Of particular significance, under the’ circumstances, ‘is the recent ‘appeal of Harold D. Smith, Federal budget director, that all local expenditures be held to a minimum. Budget Director smith has frank: ly declared that the national defense program is going to require every last dollar the taxpayer: can spare— and more! And to avoid. encroachment on federal tax ‘sources, -he has appealed to.state and: local. officials throughout the country to postpone any enterprises which are not imperative -so:‘that the nations ‘resources will be: available’ to earry.on the-preParedness program. Despite that warning, however, terrific pressure will undoubtedly be on the’ legislature between now .and adjournmént fo ap4) prove millions of dollars worth of . special appropriation -bills—some. of which will Hkely be ‘adorned ‘with
national, defense trappings to ‘lessen resistance. As'a mattér of fact, some of ‘the dog eared proposals now being put forward as “defense measures" were kicking around the legislature when Hitler was still a corporal. Bona fide national defense measures, however—such asthe antisabotage act, repeal of the: secondary boycott and numerous: proposals to clamp down on communists and bundists—have occupied much of the time of the lawmakers. Organized labor already has _ bitterly condemned the 1941 legislature as ‘“‘anti-labor.’* Nothing could be further from the truth. As a matter of fact,there have been many times when farm groups and other branches of the community, outraged by labor: excesses, have asked for far more drastic action than the legislature has taken, Members of the legislature, for the most art, recognized the imperative need of legislation which would permit agriculture, business atid industry to meet the national government’s demands for high speed, uninterrupted production. And faced with that need, they took action, in several instances, designed -to fore“stoppages. however, is still in doubt, labor opposition, ‘To this writer, one of the gloom‘iest aspects of the 1941 session—at . ‘least as it ‘bears on the nation’s welfare—has been the stubborn refusal of labor leaders to recognize that aun} emergency exists and: that labor has} responsibilities as well as privileges. . Thus far, labor’s attitude—as displayed at Sacramento—is that the national defense program is just another WPA project and that everybody is entitled to fight to get his share of the loot. Certainly, there has been no disposition to recognize that if farmers and school teachers, and grocers and housewives, must make sacrifices, labor, too, must make sacrifices. Under the circumstances, members of the legislature who have stood up against tremendous labor pressure, for measures to prevent sabotaging of the state’s productive machinery, are to be congratulated both on their courage and their wisdom. Likewise members who ‘have held the = fort against extravagance and reckless expenditures, deserve a hand from that they stay by their guns ‘until the final gavel falls.

Gen. J. O. Donovan, state director of selective service, today asked ocal draft boards to give especial attention to possible deferment of farm workers in view of a growing shortage of agricultral labor. Donovan quoted Secretary of Agriculture Claude R.‘'Wickard as saving: “The national defense ‘program has drawn heavily upon the supply of farm labor and maintaining an adequate supply of farm workers for production of essential foods required for national defense is becoming a serious problem.” Shortages are most acute in New England and middie Atlantic states, but California supply of agricultural labor has decreased by 19.3 per cent kard: said.
