HATCHETS —
There is a desperate, compelling
need for, unity in America; there is
an urgent, critical need for unity in
our own home state of (California,
for if bombs rain death and destruction on the American mainland, they
‘are more likely to fall ‘here than in
any other section of ‘the nation.
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

From where I sit..
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.

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:
