BE BENEFIT NOW AND IN FUTURE Access roads to reach 11 remote deposits of strategic minerals in the west at a cost. of more than $4,200,000 have been approved by the War Production Board. The new roads will also open the way to many virgin timber stands. In California, 44 roads covering 780 miles and costing $1,529,590 will take chrome, copper, tale, tungsten, mercury, manganese, lead, zine, calcite, and timber from virtually untapped sources to speed up the war effort. While California has an unparalleled abundance of resources urgently needed for victory, it is obvious that this wealth does no good under the ground, far from the centers of industry. Californians have been talking ‘‘access”’ roads for years. Now that they are becoming a reality, we may _look forward not only to making a greater contribution to the war, but to establishing a firmer hold on the postwar future, PROUSE DRIVE-IN MARKET GRASS VALLEY-NEVADA CITY HIGHWAY DRIVE OUT AND SEE US Phone 412 FRESH LOCAL A FINE COMPLETE STOCK OF Groceries ALL VEGETABLES AND FRUITS IN SEASON Armoutr’s Good Beet PLAINLY PRICED FOR H .

CABL SYSTEM IS NOW 1) YEARS OLD An anniversary occurs this week . which appeals to the sentiment of all who know San Francisco— and lieven many who don’t. The cocky little cable cars were inyears have been a hallmark of the picturesque scene by Golden. Gate. San Franciscans love their cable cars with an affection that partakes of the old days when the cable car was the only way—besides hoofing it— of lurching up the city’s sudden hills. Tourists love riding in the tilting cable cars, and consider a visit to San Francisco without a cable car ride as pointless as a visit to Washington without a trip up the Washington Monument. (Many a service man’s last memory of the land he is leaving to fight for and perhaps to die for is the swoop around a steep curve and a dazzling glimpse down to the bay from a San Francisco cable car. Progress is continually threatening the lives of the cable car. Practical persons propose more efficient and economical means of transportation. It strikes us that San Francisco has many transportation problems more urgently in need of solving than those connected with cable car riding. And so, on the 70th birthday of San Francisco’s acble cars, we say solve the other problems first, San Francisco, and let the cable cars, for the pure joy of their jaunty existence, have many happy returns of the day!
