A Plank For Consumers Fnsln tte sa stnaty ate te Piste ste tate he stestestisterhe ster’ ms ee (Contributed ) _ They've been thinking up “‘planks”’ at Cleveland for the! Republican party platform, and toward the end of the month . the Demo-rats will get together to think up some for theirs. , In both platforms there will be planks for the farmer, for! business, for labor, for youth, for the aged. for the unemploy. ed—which is all well and good, since each of these individual groups within our population has a right to know what the riva! parties plan to.do for them. fe . But has anyone thought of a plank for the consumer? ° It’s just possible that millions who have no particular . axe to grind, but who do have to make dollars go as far as por sible even to get food enough; would like to fnow what the) parties plan to do for them. ; . Laws that boost the consumer's food costs—not so the extra money he lays out goes to the farmers, but rather to pay Hi for lost economies of volume and direct-to-buyer merchandisine—are a major issue in the nation today. How do the parties stand on this issue? Whatever the other complex arguments, the obvious net result of nrchibitively heavy taxes on multiple stores is simp ly this: a bill adding up to about ten cents more every time a consumer fills the market. basket with a dollar’s worth of steak. spinach, breakfast food, etc. Maybe the political parties believe consumers are wil! ing to pay this cost for whatever else the laws will do. If se let the party platforms carry ‘consumers’ planks’’ saying a< much; but in any case, have such planks, and not dodge an issue so important. : Or perhaps, so long as the consumer remains unorganized and unchampioned, the only “‘plank’’ ever fashioned for him will be the kind with a handle on it—one they can swinz like a ball bat. ao G-Men Get Pensions . .

RE-OPENS TO PUBLIC, ‘Editor's Note: With the revived interest in California history, The Nugget presents another in the series of historical early California missions. In the Valley of the Bears, ar named by Gaspar de Portola and his men on their first expedition from San Diego north in search of Monterey Bay in 1769, Father oe 3 Serra on September 1, 1772, fouttded the Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa, fifth in his chain of Franciscan stations. ~Progressing slowly on their march northward, Portola.and his soldiers encountered many ferocious bears ee . between the mouth of the Sanita ‘Maria River and the present site of @. San Luis Obispo and killed a numher of them for food. Father Juan . Crespi, whose abilty for picking future mission locations was Tremarkable, accompanied Portola as did Father Francisco Gomez. Both padres left for posterity interesting diaries describing the trip and the discovery of what now is San Luis Obispo. While-the soldiers called the valley where the Valley of Bears, Fr. Crespi named it La Canada. de la Natividad de Neustra Senora because he arrived there on the eve of ‘he Nativity of the Blssed Virgin, September 7, 1769. As we know, Portola failed to find Monterey Bay and returned to San Digeo discouraged and determined to return to Mexico. However, hewas spurred “6n to make another attempt by Fr. Serra and set out again from San Diego on. April 17, 1770, while Fr. Serra, presidente of the ‘California Missions, went with a sea expedition which anchored in Monterey Bay shortly after Portola reached there by land. Ten Franciscan friars arrived at . Monterey from Mexico on May 21, . 7771, but.lack of food supplies at Ps and San Diego, delayed the founding of Mission San Luis Obis, po. Indeed, while awaiting ships and ‘supplies from Mexico, Captain Pedro Fages with some of his men returned to the Valley of the Bears on a hunting trip and sent back to Monterey and Mission San Antonio 9,000-¢> pounds of bear meat. y The. ships with food reached San iDiego in August, 1772, and landed with their gargoes there for trans portation north. So Fr. Serra set out for San Diego Fages, determined to found Mission San Luis Obispo on his way south. ' DESCRIPTION OF SAN LUIS OBISPO . Those familiar with the thriving of San Luis Obispo of today, where is situated the mission of that name, may be interested in the deseription of the site as recorded by Mr. Francisco Palou, biographer of Fr. Serra. Speaking of the expedition of Fages and the establishment of the mission, Fr. Palou wrote: “Thus in time the company arrived in the vicinity of Bear Valley. After surveying the locality, it was determined to found the mission about half a league before reaching the Canada do los Osos, yet in sight of it, on a level plot, which to all appeared most. suitable for the mission on account of two little arroyos which contained water with sufieient lands that with but little trouhle could be irrigated from them. For the site of the mission a slight elevation below which ran the two arroyos was designated. The Cross was constructed and immediately an arbor (enramada( was erected for the chapel. After tne blessing and the sacred ceremonies. the Standard of our Redemption was planted and venerated. On September first of said year 1772, the Rev. Father Presidente Serra celebrated the first holy mass on an altar, which had been prepared in the arbor, and thus the beginning was made of the mission dedicated in honor of San Luis Obispo do Tolosa.’”’ The padres of those early mission days were ennured to privations, but it would seem that Fr. Jose Cavaller left at San Luis Obispo by Fr. Serra when he resumed his journey to San Diego, must have been endowed with superhuman ability to sustain him self and his assistants on scant a tions for Fr. Palou records that: “As a guard for said mission, Captain Fages left two leather jacket soldiers and three Catalonian volunteers. In addition, the Fr, Presidente assigned two Lower Californio néophytes in order that they might begin to build the dwelling and chapel. For the maintenance of the missionary Father, the five soldiers and the two Indians, the captain left y there fifty pounds of flour, three pecks of wheat for sowing, a quantity of chocolate, and a _ box. of city (Continued on Page Five) . ssh ths 3 bee r zs
