(Nevada City looks mighty good to its returning sons who, having seen much of the world while fighting the war, come back to the old town with their appreciation deepened by the perspective gained in great cities, in the wilderness, on the desert, on the sea, and in strange, faraway lands. The little. old city, set on round hills amid tall pines and graceful, twinkling poplars, with white frame buildings lining crooked _ streets, hasn't changed much. —“Thepeople still have .their easy gait, friendly emile, and strong sense of community comradship evidenced now ‘by the remarkalble collection of more or less decorative foliage sprouting from every adult male chin. ‘Broad Street hansn’t changed much in ten years save for a few new store fronts, some of which testify to the. town’s rather remarkable thirst, created no doubt, by the salu'brious dryness of the mountain air, Probably no one in town is getting rich very fast, but on the other hand, one rarety~ on Broad Street the grey, harried faces and sees FOREST SERVICE HAS NEW WILD LIFE MANAGER SAIN FRANCISCO, June 3—The creation of a separate Division of ‘Wildlife Management to handle conservation problems related to game animals, birds and fish in the .seventeen national fortsts of California was announced today by S.

The iden-. tical terms are. applied to the man in. public life who :ries oultt against the steady encroachment of government on the domain of individual liberty in this country— tthe socialistic tendency to extend, strengthen and make permanent every device of government conitrol that was instituted as a ‘temporary’? measure of the emergency. On ithe other hand the men in government are termed ‘‘liberal’’,, ‘“progressive’’ and ‘“‘pro-labor’’ by the CIO4PAIC so long as they do nothing to offend the so-called spokesmen of lafbor. That is monstrous fakery in talk —yet it is talk that may, unless clearly refuted, influence honest and patriotic men in the ranks of labor to vote against their own interests. Who is the true friend of labor— of all the scores of millions of working men amd women in America, union and non union —iwhen these fake labels are stripped off? Is it the intelligent conservative who realizes that public wrath i srising against abuses of the strike privilege who foresees drastic legislation that would deal a ‘heavy blow against sound unions along with destructive unions and therefore counsels labor to clean its house and accept responsibility along with power? Or is it the so-called liberal who urges labor to follow ‘leaders who break contracts with employers, break faith with. the pulblic and offer, only the alternative of rule for themselves or ruin for the nation’s economy? The ‘‘reactionary’’—so branded by the label fakers—jwho simply _insist upon anr courageously votes for the rights of all the American people as outlined and guaranteed in the constitution, is actually the true liberal, the trme progressive, in Aimerica today. : ‘as The building is a new one erected on the site of one destroyed three years ago when about to open as a USO headquarters. ely . with. menus ceeds . . . ; emergencg . now . mittee for \\California Cattlemen’s . out the state for The appeal for money to buy food jand for gifts of food canned in tin for shipment to famine areas is now “Yours may be one.

A memiber didatte for against The a of the congress or canoffice, who speaks out the arrogant union ezarism of a John Lewis or Petrillo is immediately labeled by the CLO4PAC} “tory’’ “reactionary” ‘amtt. labor’’ and even ‘‘fascist’’.

On ithe other hand the men in government are termed ‘‘liberal’’,, ‘“progressive’’ and ‘“‘pro-labor’’ by the CIO4PAIC so long as they do nothing to offend the so-called spokesmen of lafbor. That is monstrous fakery in talk —yet it is talk that may, unless clearly refuted, influence honest and patriotic men in the ranks of labor to vote against their own interests. Who is the true friend of labor— of all the scores of millions of working men amd women in America, union and non union —iwhen these fake labels are stripped off? Is it the intelligent conservative who realizes that public wrath i srising against abuses of the strike privilege who foresees drastic legislation that would deal a ‘heavy blow against sound unions along with destructive unions and therefore counsels labor to clean its house and accept responsibility along with power? Or is it the so-called liberal who urges labor to follow ‘leaders who break contracts with employers, break faith with. the pulblic and offer, only the alternative of rule for themselves or ruin for the nation’s economy?

The “‘liberal” —so branded by the label fakers—actually is often Bs counterpart of the demagogues who tricked the people of Italy and Germany imto yielding, one ‘by one, every one of their souvereign rights to Mussolini and Hitler. Such ‘“‘liberals’” in America, if their way pfevails, eventually will destroy the right of private enterprise for all men and the right to organize and bargain collectively for all labor. Such ‘liberals’ are the fascists of the USA. Plain, honest, dispassionate talk among American neighbors — the farmer and his employees, the garage owner and -hig mechanics, the, grocer and his elerks—is urgently — needed today.They all have the same vital stake in preservation ofjree~ dom that are precious to all alike For when one freedom is lost, all others are weakened and jeopardi ed.
