[DANGER LURKS
IN CLOSING DAYS
OF LEGISLATURE
By RALPH H. TAYLOR
The 1941 state legislature is rushing pell-mell toward adjournment,
working day and night in an eleventh
hour drive to reach decisions on the
major issues and dispose of the hundreds of miscellaneous bills _ still
pending.

still critical days ahead — for it is
during the final weeks, when bills
are jammed through with only superficial consideration, that dangerous
legislation is most likely to get
through unnoticed.

Conservative members generally,
who have fought throughout the
session to keep the bars up against
extravagant spending and visionary
experimentation, must now redouble
their vigilance to spike -crack-pot
proposals and check the flood of

pills.
The danger from special appropriation measures, during the closing
weeks of this session, is greater than
usual, due to the fact that state revNevada City :

enues are booming, under the. impetus of defense spending.
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.

TOLD FARM HELP
GETTING SCARCE
SACRAIMENTO, June 12.—(UP)
—Brig. 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
