A nation under fire must be a nation united—-if it is to withstand its enemies and have a fighting chance: of survival. In an abstract way, we all know that; there is hardly a day of our lives now that ‘we do not hear some patriotic appeal for a morator-, ium on old disputes and differences. Yet, in many of the every-day realities of life, it seems that 'we have still failed either to achieve unity, or even to comprehend its meaning. The seeds of dissension are still being sown with a reckless regard for consequences. A case in point is ‘the current ef~ fort on the part of certain labor groups to qualify an initiative measure for the November ballot which, if successful, would place both houses of the legislature under complete CLFORNA MS dominance of the cities and, for all practical ‘purposes, disenifranchise rural California. That measure, which would pit the cities against the country, and labor against the ifarmer—iwhich ‘wouid place producing California at the mercy of consuming California, and give the great processing and manufacturing areas the power of economic life or death over the areas which yield the raw ma'terials—will mean a political civilewar in California if it goes on the ballot. And yet there are still those who are so blind to the dangers from without that they are willing to fan. the fires of discord ‘within; still determined to carry on their struggle for selfish advantage even when ‘the rural areas they seek to disenfranchise are being called wpon to produce, produce and produce so that American workers and American fighting men can be clothed and fed. : This writer has listened attentively to appeals from labor leaders to. let bygones ibe bygones and to aid in rallying agriculture and labor under ‘the same banner—the Flag of America—for the ‘‘duration.’”’ We,. in turn, have joined in similar appeals to labor, earnestly believing that the majority of Aimerican ‘workers, in common with the majority of American ‘farmers are willing and anxious to put the jwelfare of their country ahead of every other consideration during this period, of great For VENETIAN BLINDS and ,LATEST PATTERNS IN WALL PAPER r Se John W.

You onght to meet my friend, Will Dudley. I suppose Will must be peventy-eight or nine .. but you'd never know it. He’s tall and lean and hard as a hickory. And althotigh’ the oily! formal education he ever had was 4 few Winters in the old red schoolhouse, I think that! he’s the wisest man I know in wany ways. For one thing, Will taught me the value of what he calls “Just a-settin!” ‘ * oe * Come upon Will in the evening, when his hard day’s work is done, and you'll find him “just 1-settin,” ina rocker on-his porch. In one hand he’ll have his old briar pipe and:in the other, a tall cool glass of beer, ““Wholesome, appetizin’ beer,” says Will, “is standard equipment for proper settin! Puts a feller in an easy-goin’ peaceful mood.” * * *& You see, Will holds the theory that in our present mixed-up world, aman needs a quiet hour every day. An hour in which to sit down by Joe Marsh quietly and restore his strength and courage. _ AC ee Will thinks, and I agree with him, that a man ought to forget ali. his own and the werld’s worries during that hour-of-poace. And Will feels that a glass of ftagrant me?low beer helps’ most to bring you quiet relaxation. Show me, the man wha sits down quietly of an evening with: his glass of beer and I’! show you a man who is wise in the ways of living. Such men, like, Will Dudley, live'to a ripe old age, unembittered by the troubles of the world. They seem to remain, all their lives, sweet-natured and kindly. _ Time has a way of rendering accurate judgments on the value of the things men use and enjoy in the world. And Time.. thousands of years of it.. has handed down * the verdict that'beer’is a pleasant and worthy companion for all men of good will. * bd No. 40 of a Series Mail order check work Agent for New York-California Delaware Underwriters NEVADA CITY ASSAY AND REFINING OFFICE Vractical mining tests from 75 to 1000 pounds, giving the free gold percentages of sulphurets, valuc of sulphurets and tailings.

Copyright, 1942, Brewing Industry Foundation emergency. We still believe that the American jworkingman and the American farmer want to ‘work hand in hamd, on the home front, to equip and supply their sons and brothers who are in the fighting lines. There were boys .from rural California and boys from. urban (California who died on bloody Bataan—hboys¢iwho’ died side by side, fighting for each other and what ‘we call democracy. And we can ; imagine the contempt in their eyes if they had been told, as Jap shells sceeamed over them and dive bombers rained death down on them, that the folks, back home were preoccupied ‘with a political battle to make farmers take . legislative . dictation from. labor ‘blocs in the cities. They might have felt a little sick (and been justified in it) at the thought of paying the suipreme sacrifice to protect that kind of “democracy.” Isn’t it about time that we all took another look at this situation in Cauifornia? It takes time, of course, to bury all the hatchets of bygone days. It,is hard to realize, unless we stop and think, that a measure to. disenfranchise rural ‘California might create violent disunity and _ slow down the’ jbig, all-important job of war \production. This column is not intended as a sweeping condemnation of the labor leaders who are fostering the proposal in question. Rather, it is intended to sound a warning and make them consider how it squares with ‘the national need for unity. In any other year, if labor. had wanted to fight it out with the farmers at the polls on such an issue, that would have (been its privilege. But this isn’t ‘‘any other year.’ This is the year when ‘we are supposed to be fighting Hitler and Hirohito. We hope our comrades in arms in the labor movement twill take another look—and call lbaick their legislative reapportionment act in the interest of national unity and their country’s welfare, ECONOMY BLOC CUTS $13,829,518 OFF TAX LOAD State government cost California taxpayers $275,993,724 last fiscal year, it was annonced in Sacramento today by State Controller Harry B. Riley. Cost for the year which ended last June 30 was $13,829,518 or 4.77% lower than that of the previous fiseal’ year, Riley reported. EA reduction of $23,809,868 in exwenditures for unemployment relief and ‘not’ a general curtailment of government expense brought albout the decrease the first in'eight years. Exipenditures for all functions other than relief increased $9,980,350. An expanded program of highway construction and maintenance together with greater apportionment of gasoline tax money to cities resulted in an increase of $3,537,583 in expenditures for the Division’ of Highways. ‘Educational functions cast $2.813,954 more last fiscal year than the one before, Controller Riley said largely because of heavier outlay for the University of California and increased apiportionments to counties for high schools and junior colleges. Last year’s apportionment of motor vehicle license fees to cities and counties was $2,375,355 greater than the year before; curative functions increased $1,453,980; interest on registered warrants, $1,154,971; administrative functions $730,759; gasoline tax apportionments to counties, $826,860; and aid to needy children $609,322. The state last year spent $6,173,294 less for capial outlay than im 1939-40; and cut Division of Water Resources expenditures for repair and restoration of property damaged by floods and storms by~$493,240: Final Services Held Here Today For Late Alfred McKee, 52 Last rites were held here this morning at the St. Canice Catholic Church for Alfred McKee, former resident, who died in Redding last week, Burial was in the (Catholic (Cemetery under the direction of the Holmes Funéral Home of this city.
