AGE TWO NEVADA CITY NUGGET FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1936. Beet hehe Nevada City Nugget A Legal Newspaper, as defined by statute. Printed and Published at Nevada City. -fefentenfeateateateate Editor and Publisher Published Semi-Weekly, Monday and Friday at Nevada City, California, and entered as mail matter of the second class in the postoffice at Nevada City, under Act of Congress, March 38, 1879. SUBSCRIPTION RATES One year . MAVANCE) © 22. sesso se $2.50 Need For An Organized Majority = ea (By ROLAND E. TOGNAZZINI) It becames more and more evident, as time goes on, that the organizing of the unorganized majority of people is absolutely essential if our present form of government is: to continue. More and more do we notice the inroads that organized selfish minority groups are making into the established and peaceful order of social things. A case directly in point, and one that involves San Francisco and the State of California, is that the water-front, and more particularly, one Harry Bridges. Here is a case where one man, not even-an»American citizen, with a relatively small organized group consisting of not more than 4,000 members, for reasons best known to himself, was able to stop’ completely the activities of one of the greatest industries that this city nurtures and one of the greatest on the Pacific coast—the shipping industry. Not only does this industry suffer directly, but indirectly the entire citizenry of this city and this state become affected. And why? Because of the activities of one well organized minority group. At a recent meeting held in Sacramento where there was gathered the more radical,elements of society this statement was made: “The organized minorities are in the majority, and some day soon they will get together and then we can accomplish our purposes.’ It goes without saying that the great preponderance of society is a peace-loving, hard-working, law-abiding group. Engrossed in their own affairs it is natural that their perspective is limited and does not permit them to appreciate the significance of the unceasing activities of the selfish minority . groups whose objectives in creating chaos and confusion are threatening their very security: Where they wish to carry the American citizen no one knows. What they can accomplish one knows less. What we do know is that nowhere in the civilized world of today is there a form of government which gives to its people the freedom and security that our constitutional form of government gives to us. Nowhere is there a country whose citizens enjoy such a high standard of living as do those in our United States. Yet, with no example to point to, this ever increasing army of destructionists is coercing and enticing and inflaming our people into a frame of mind where they would destroy the very thing that has permitted them to occupy their enviable position—equalley nowhere in the world today. Therefore, it is apparent that the work of an organization such as The California Crusaders, which proposes to organize the unorganized majorities and band them into a militane group of citizens mindful. and respectful of our form of government and desirous of maintaining and protecting it, is essential. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT IT BE DONE NOW! Who’s Ox? . . (Contributed) Frequently one hears John R. Public voice the ment: “I’m not a taxpayer. I don’t own any property.” There are no tax-exempt persons in this country today. There is no immunity tax for any citizen. Our indirect taxes alone amount to nearly $300 a year for each person. These are extracted from you when you purchase tobacco, liquor, gasoline, utility service, clothing, groceries, or pay rent. Everyone seems to be in favor of reducing taxes. Your problem is where to begin to cut. Whose ox is to be gored? Lewis W. Douglas, in a study of federal pyodndiluires and financing entitled: .““There’s a Way Out,” shows total expenditures for 122 years from 1789 to 1911 amounted to $22,452,000. During the first three years of the New Deal the cost was $22,371,882,790. From 1914 to 1934, all our California ébbdlatton increased 113 per cent. Our basic income from industry increased 150 per cent, while our taxes increased 438 per cent. Total taxes collected from California from federal, state and local government in 1935, was $550,000,000. The people decide what functions the government shall perform. We should determine how much the expenditures shall be, and how they shall be met. We must hold the officers responsible for their action. The government on its part, must decide how the revenue shall be expended. comyal Grass Valley Good 00 107 Mill St. The studio that satisfies. photos at reasonable prices—no guess work. 8-hour Kodak. finishnoroerapren ing service. ‘DEWITT NELSON FILLS BIGELOW OFFICE HERE S.
