Thinking Out Loud i$ (By H. M. L.) Nevada County has prospered under the: New Deal and undoubtedly will continue to prosper long after as New Deal lias been merged with the Old Deal—-merged or submerged-——it is too early yet to tell which. W. Averell Harriman, polo player and multimillionaire, at the head of the NRA would peels soe submergence. £ A And speaking of New Deal pros~perity, no spot on the map is quite as prosperous as Washington, D.C. where the police have closed 150 gambling joints and do not know how many others are running full . blast. where easy money is most plentiful, whether its Cripple Creek, Dawson, Virginia City, or our beautiful capitol, Washington, D. C. The (S! armies . ! their recreation. Labor organizations must have . made some very close decisions these . days. Militant labor leaders are turn. ing their heavy guns on the proposal . our county sheriffs: to strictly civil . the proposed _ state would be used to break up ‘‘peaceful’ strikes. There ‘few strikes: of strike is a rara avis. been mighty have j any impanied by violence. Whether it is the state guardsmen .or the state nstabulary which puts an end to Kien civil is not very matefial to the present debate. wars, TThere is ‘plenty to Ge sate, however, gainst further/ concentration of power in the hands of either state or federal executi While concentration might bring economies for some years, in’the long run, any inerease in the public payroll will . mount in’ geometrical progression.

Cali. fornia would accept clerical and civil . duties as proposed and the lexical! decrease in remuneration which sue) ' duties imply, without a vociferous . appeal to the people. And since, all public officials, the sheriffs leaa ' the van of. popularity, it is extremely ° doubtful whether any salary paring could be effected. 1a . of. The object to te atenined by creat. ing a state constabulary, swift ap-. prehension of criminals, can probab. ly be attained by greater number . of county sheriffs and municipal police departments, a co-ordination which would erase county boundar. ies so far as the pursuit of criminals concerned and permit any peace to make an arrest anywhere . like gold are} . . . . . is officer in the state. Criminals, where you find them, and_ they should be taken when and’ where . found regardless of state or county boundaries. Some reform of this! kind will probably enacted by the legislature, and the constabulary, which has proved so successful in New York, for instance, will wait A awhile. ji The foregoing discussion brings the thought that the American people today are endeavoring mightily to walk in the middle of the road and at the same time to get somewhere. On the one hand is the comparatively small group of the very wealthy who seek such innovations as a state constabulary which they , instinctively feel will help maintain the old order. Anything that modifies the old order is painted a bright red and labeled ‘“‘Communism.’’ On the other. hand is a very large group who never had anything of material goods or money, augmented by a few millions of those whom the depression has robbed of what little they had. These paint anything proposed —in the way of maintaining the old order—black, and labels it ‘‘Fascism.”’ ’ ” e Between these two hostile and rampant, groups stands’ the small home owner, the man with a job, and a stake in his country’s future. There are millions in this category, and upon their shoulders falls the burden of maintaining the national peace, the national balance, and preserving along the middle of the road. * eity were recent business visitors in Oakland.

SHERIFFS OPPOSE BILL TO CROWD COUNTY JAILS SACRAMENTO, March 28.—County sheriffs are protesting S.
