Just when a rash of picnics was breaking out over the eounty along comes an April shower in June and dampens all the outdoor ardor. The big annual Sunday school Picnic. of Grass Valley had to be postponed. The Rotary clubs of Nevada City and Grass Valley postponed their picnic which was to have been held in Pioneers Park last evening, until Thursday, June 24. Providence still regulates and dispenses the weather. Man thus far has failed to regulate earthquakes and the weather. This is a bit surprising when one thinks of Boulder Dam, Panama Canal and two great bridges across San. Francisco bay. While earthquakes -probably never can be controlled or influenced by man, some scientists believe weather can be mastered. Our grandchildren may see that day. More important than weather or earthquakes, however, is the problem of living in peace, one group of men with another group, one community or one nation with another. This is an immediate and urgent any newspaper bears witness. We have laws enough on the statute books to insure peace in this country, if they are enforced. But the laws are not enforced. In Johnstown, Pennsylvania, men.and women have armed and stand ready to shoot night maurauders who hurl bricks thrqugh their windows. The Republic Steel Corporation files a suit in the Federal courts to compel the ,postofifice department to deliver mail to the besieged workrs in its plants. This is a long cry from the time of Grover Cleveland, who ordered out United States troops -to protect United States mails. Labor leaders and corporation executives hurl defies at one another. Working men who wish to work are stoned and mutilated. Strikers are shot and clubbed to death. by the police. The President in Washington mildly rebukes the Republic Steel corporation.

CALIFORNIA _ The Gold Center, FRIDAY, JUNE 18, 1937. ty, with hundreds of home comers and visitors expected from the great valleys of California as well as the bay region, Grass Valley is preparing for an elaborate 3-day program, July 3-4-5 with the slogan of the sponsoring committee of “something doing every minute.’’ Preliminary or warmup events of July 3 and 4, will include a street Mardi Gras parade with carnival novelties; large “‘heads,’”’ loaned by Sacramento Junior college; band music, street singing, serpentine and dancing.

Sunday, July 4, will be devoted mainly to homecoming reunions and family dinners, with the Berkeley Sciots drum and bugle corps giving an exhibition drill at Memorial Park, late in the afternoon. Feature of the entire celebration will be the parade on the morning of July 5 with as many as 100 floats and marching units, three bands and hundreds of participants. Floats will run to the modern theme, rather-than the customary ’49er motif. Patriotic exercises with W. H.

As a’matter of fact the -present anarchy that is now being . “is instigated by the communists who -sonally of the sit-down strike. But ‘of liberty. demonstrated in killings and maim-' ings, it has been repeatedly proved, . are taking over John Lewis’ crusade for labor. It. is ‘well known that Lewis himself did not approve perhe has loosed forces that he can no longer: control. The only control that can ‘be exercised is that of the United States government, and the man who heads our government shows no disposition to take control. And so we come back to the problem of how ‘to live in peace. We have just this suggestion to make; That we rigorously censure all those who break tihe law; that we insist that our public servants charged with enforcing and administering the law, do their duty, whether the servant lives in the White House or has a job Ge nightwatchman in Nevada City; that we draw no distinction between law breakers, whether it is an executive of America’s largest corporation or ‘the head of the world’s biggest group of workers; or whether’the law breaker belongs to a union or whether he does not. We must learn wholeheartedly to hate any form of law breaking, whether it be running past a stop sign, or beating a fellow man to death. Por sooner or later, unless we hold fast to the principle that the law must be enforced, we shall lose our democracy and with it our heritage PRESCOTT HILL PROPERTY About 100 tons of ore per week is being mined on the Nugemt and Giller leases in the Prescott Hill property a portion of the Em pireStar Mines company ground at Grass Valley.
