THE PAY DAY SPECIAL EDITION
This is the week of pay days. Few peoplle realize that
the pay days of the twin cities are assuming larger proportions
every month, that proportionately as the pay day distribution
of wages and salaries increases, the twin cities will grow. At
the moment they have grown to the point where housing
conditions are entirely inadequate to the demand. In other
words our suit of clothes no longer fits. Buttons are flying
off and seams are parting. We need far visioned men with
money to build us houses above ground and others to go after
the yellow metal below ground.
This edition marks an experiment on the part of the
Nevada City Nugget. A-large number of advertisers, who
have faith i nthe future, who have faith in their home towns,
and who realize that the best is yet to come, have joined the
Nugget in making this issue the success that it is. We believe
there is as much news in the advertisements of this issue as
there is in the news columns themselves and we invite our
readers to give these advertisments their-special_attention—
There are opportunities for profit in all of them.
OUR HIGH SCHOOL
The Nevada City High School needs an auditorium. It
needs it more than anythoing else. It should have a place for
indoor: sports such as basketball. It should have a place for
great school rallies, such as other high schools in this state have.
. The auditorium is needed for public gatherings with students
and their parents, for graduation ceremonies, for entertaining
and hearing eminent men and women when they visit Nevada
City, for presenting school plays, for musicals and recitals of
high school band and orchestra.
Aside from the many uses the high school would make
of an auditorium, the people of Nevada City need an auditorium at the high school, where lecturers from the University of
California can be invited to come during the winter season,
where public concerts may be given, where Memorial Day
may be solemnly observed, where Armistice Day programs
may be given.
It would cost so little, comparatively, to build a plain,
substantial auditorium, that we believe any public spirited
organization in Nevada City, which would sponsor i
carry through a campaign for that purpose to a successtu.
sue.
There is hardly a high school in the entire state which
does not have an auditorium and many of them have swimming pools. The architectural division of the State Department
of Education will supply plans for an auditorium suited to
a community of this size without cost and planned by experts
in that line.
There are some in this community who look with complaceny upon the fact that the per pupil cost of the Nevada
City High school, $114.00 per student, is the lowest in the
state. We do not share that satisfaction. If the per pupil
cost is low, the pupil is receiving less in the way of education
and preparation for his life work than the students in other
schools.
---Fhere is-hardly-a high school that doés not offer those
students who have no prospect or intention of attending a
university, something in the way of vocational training. And
eighty p er cent of high school students do not attend college.
On the whole, we believe the low cost per pupil in our
high school is nothing of which to boast. Times may
have changed since we w ent to school, but we still hold to the
old fashioned notion that no particular honor attaches to the
foot of the class. ~ Some one must occupy that post, of
course, but God help those who become resigned to it, or,
worse, find satisfaction in it.
BOY SCOUTS
_. A meeting of representative men of this city got together
Monday night and pledged themselves anew to advance and
prosper the Boy Scout Movement in this city. No one can
justly estimate the good this organization of the nation’s boys
has done.
It reaches from the present into the generations to come.
There is the immediate benefit that comes to the boy. All
the lore that the school does not teach, of special interest to
boys, and even to the boy’s fathter who retains a little of
the boyhood dreams, may be acquired by every boy in the
organization in his march from Tenderfoot to Eagle Scout.
Then there is the benefit reflected in a higher quality of
citizenship, when the Scout becomes a man.
Finally there is the richer and finer background offered
the boys whose fathers were scouts, and so on, from one
generation to the next generation, a beneficent circle rolling
up splendid traditions and treasures of kindly humanity,—
_ patriotism, and leadership for the future. . No one can estimate
the value of the Boy Scout movement.

afternoon, coursing on the low sheep
pastures across the river from Sacramento. One of his hounds started
a jackrabbit and gave chase. The

is the way with a greyhound, tossed
the rabbit into the air. A duck flying low, between ponds, crashed into
the jackrabbit in the air. Both fell
to the ground dead. This gentleman
entered the office of a Sacramento

FACT FINDERS
ASK 20 MILLION
CUT IN COSTS
SACRAMENTO, Mar. 23—(UP)—
Reductions and eliminations totaling
approximately $20,000,000 have
been recommended by the’ senate
fact-finding committee in reports
covering virtually every activity of
state government.
In a general report summarizing
findings of the committee and pointing out that the state faced a deficit
of $50,000,000, the committee said:
“Tf public expenditures are not
kept within public ability to pay, the
inevitable result is bankruptcy, and
public bankruptcy will result in a
paralysis of necessary governmental
functions and a general governernmental coliapse.
GUARD CALIFORNIA
“Symptons of this condition are
already making their appearance in
other parts of our country and we
must not let them appear in California. We feel that out duty, therefore, is to lend every effort to: the
drastic. retrenchment. To
shift burdens to county or other
governmental units is not to reduce
the cost of government, and our remerely
commendations will not, we believe,
result in shifting any present state
costs to local units.*
“Even if all of our proposed economies are effected, it still wili be
impessible to blame the budget with
revenues.There is . exis ng not an
even chance of approximating 2 ball aneed budget unless the people are
oe to cut the: fixed educational
costs of the state and to utilize highway revenues to pay the interest and
redemption on state highway bonds.
FIXED CHARGES, THE BARRIER
“We can open the doors of
our prisons, nor close our state hospitals fer the insane and handicapped persons. We can not entirely
eliminate our courts and certain
executive and administrative functions. Fixed charges. in state government at the present time constitute a barrier to complete retrenchment and have limited the scope to
our recommendations.
not
In explaining the financial condition of the state, the committee report pointed out that ‘‘during the
past 70 years expenditures have increased over 14,000 per cent while
the population has increased only 1,400, per cent.” In other words governmental expenditures have increased just 10 times as rapidly as
the increase in population.
“It is interesting to note in this
connection,’’ the report said, ‘‘that
our state indebtedness has increased
2,200 per cent since 1910. It was
then approximately $5,000,000, and
now it is approximately $140,000,000. These figures do not include
the debts incurred by local governmental subdivisions.”’

Press survey of the. state senate

and 14 trying to look ‘interested in
