Whether the California highway patrol is to remain part
of the department of motor vehicles or become a separate department within the state government very likely will be put
_ toa vote of the people in November.
And, very likely, it will be put to them double—there
are two petitions in.circulation now, each favoring the. separation but cach doing it tin a different way. Both petitions alJust Wonner-ne :
I wonder‘ about editors
And how on earth they keep their poise,
Amid strange inadvertencies
Which mar their days with strife and noise;
Our editors are proper folk
Who seldom rave and tear their hair,
But still . wonder how they stand
The everlasting wear and tear.
I wonder if it. would be out of order to propose a Be
Kind to Editors Week. A like suggestion has been offered upon several former occasions, but nothing has ever been done
about it. Editors are always too busy and modest to _ start
campaigns in hele own behalf and the reading public seems
indifferent. Simetimes J think we do not fully appreciate our
editors and the aruous tasks they pjerform in our service.
Editors are usually patient men who seldom become
cantankerous even under the most provocative circumstances. This is truly remarkable considering the sorrows they
know; let’s inspect a few of the trials which beset their daily
pathways; first there is the inadvertency at sight of which
Miss Climber calls up to say in coldly accusative tones, “you

ready have so many signatures as to make their appearence
on the ballot virtuaily certain.
Of ithe two plans, one is advanced by the Highway Pat-'
rolmen’s association, the other by the automobile clubs of the!
state. The patrolman would create a new body under control of .
the attorney general, the director of finance, and the control.
ler, all of whom would serve on a controlling board without .
pay other than that received for their regular jobs.
The automobile club plan would create a control body, .
consisting of five men, each to receive an annual salary of .
$6,000. It also would put the new department in control of .
all construction and maintenance of state highway, taking this’
work away from the department of public works. The plan
backed by the officers would confine the patrol strictly to
‘patro! work.
‘There are other differences, but these are the. major
points. The officers themselves, from Chief E. Raymond
Cato down, do not want the automobile club plan. They argue
that the work of the patrol, just as the patrol, is important
enough to warrant a separate organization; but rather than
accept the automobile club plan, they would remain under
their present status.
The automobile club plan would seem to be merely a
move tc create a bunch of new high-salaried jobs. Highway
building and maintenance is now being handled by the department of public works; if the automobile clubs are not satisfied, let them go after that department. Why saddle the taxpayer with $30,000 more a year in executive salaries.—Sacramento Union.

Last but not least, we have the disgruntled and unreastops the paper, often sans the formality of settling his accide with his own. This too is cause for vain regret.
Now don’t you agree with me that editors deserve
least one week of kindly consideration during every rolling
year? Let's start it right now. Take out a paid subscription,
send in an unsolicited ad, overlook the annoying typograhpical errors and in various other ways, give the editors a break.
I wonder if Spain’s rebel chieftain has gone stark mad.
We have been told that he is urging summer tourists to visit
his unhappy land and promising those who accept the monstrous invitation guides and safe conduct through captyred territory. His visitors will be~ privileged to inspect desolated
homes, ravaged cities, devastated farming regions, and the
graves of slaughtered civilians; they may actually witness the
bombardment of churches, schools and hospitals and view the
shambles created in areas where helpless men, women and little children have been sacrificed to ghe red god of war. Not
very nice entertainment for the pleasure seeking vacationist;
