I wonder if good citizens,
Though dark earth's skies may be,Will follow through these troubled days
The Star of Liberty;
We need not fear the foes without—
Their folly and their sin,
If we can guard the homeland gates
And bind the foes within.
I wonder if any sequence of events, could be more fittingly arranged than was the succession of special weeks and
days whose observance we but recently honored.
Good Citizenship Week, Music Weeki and Mother's
Day, are linked together as by a law divine, and in their observance, we are reminded that integrity, beauty and love can
never die and that their powers for good will eventually right
the wrongs committed by intolerance, dishonor, greed’ and
hate.
Training for good citizenship begins in the home and under the supervision of wise and thoughtful parents, whose
concepts of right living are established upon sure and steadfast foundations.
Musical appreciation, like the buildine of character. begins early in the child's life: it is fostered by the songs his
mother sings, and by the lilting bits of verse she encourages
him to learn.
Ignorance of good music is no longer to be condoned;
the noblest and most beautiful compositions of world music,
is brought into our homes by the magic of radio: schools and
colleges conduct courses in musical appreciation. The enobling
and refining influences of this sublime art, are now available
to everyone.
Mother's Day is certainly the most beautiful of our annual observances. It comes to us with tender miemories of the
past, or joyous reunions for the present. It comes to remind
us that in the unbroken home and ‘under the guidance of loving parents, good citizenship is established in the hearts and
minds of those who. in time, will tend the home fires of Liberty
and Peace and gude the destiny of a great and favored nation—Our America.
The epitome of good citizenship is €xpressed in the Athenian Oath: . have quoted it upon previous occasions: . shall
use it once again: substituting for the words, “‘our city,” the
words—Our America.
“We will never bring disgrace to this Our America, by
any act of cowardice or ever desert our suffering comrades in
the ranks; we will fight for the ideals and sacred things of
Our America, both alone and with many; we will revere and
obey Our America’s laws and do our best to incite like respect and reverence in those about us, who are prone to annul or set them at naught: we will strive unceasingly to quicken the public sense of American duty. Thus. in all ways, we
will transmit Our America not less but greater, better and
more beautiful, than it was transmitted to us.”
Uncle Silas says: “‘Great war lords are pinning iron crosses upon the breasts of their national heroes; they are also
branding the hearts of distracted women and children with the
iron cross; and they are binding the cross of iron upon the
backs of their own and succeeding generations. It shall never
happen here.” —A. MERRIAM CONNER.
. A Story In Silver ee.
We don’t see many silver dollars any more.
They used to have a good comforting touch to the palm
of the hand, and a pocketful of silver was a fine thing to have.
But silver dollars were kind of unwieldly, and by common consent they dropped out of fashion.
The other day, though, a Midwestern company brought
silver dollars back into circulation for a brief day of glory. It
paid its whole payroll in silver dollars, in-order to watch the
way that the industrial payrol! circulated all through. the community.
The results were enlightening for all concerned. As silver dollars passed across store counters, from hand to’ hand .
and pocketbook to pocketbook, the community gained an entirely new. conception of the important part that the industrial
dollar plays in bringing prosperity and general well-being into a town where a factory's located.
_ Whether the plant’s wages are paid in silver or paper
‘money, the money circulates widely and does a lot of good.
‘And when the example of a single town is repeated and multiplied all over the country, a new concept arises and a basic
truth is emphasized: In the community or the nation as a
_whole, when industry Prospers everyone prospers. — Con

SACRAMENTO, May 16.—(UP)—
Many questions were answered for
California citizens when results of
the primary election were added up
and an anaylsis made of the rather
surprising vote.
For one thing, even the Roosevelt
supporters did not quite expect to
run up a 7 to 1 advantage over John
Garner, or a 3 to 1 sweep over the
entire Democratic field.
Republicans were pleasantly surprised that 42 per cent of the party
registration would take the trouble
to vote for the single delegation.
They interpreted it as a new surge
of strength, a protest against the .
third term issue. .
There were some discouraging sur.
prises too. Promoters of the ham and
eggs pension plan must have been
disappointed that their million votes of six months dwindled away. ‘uv
less than 100,000. This does not
mean that a definite ham and eggs
Xlan on the November ballot would
not get ailarge vote, but it indicates
that dissension within the pensior
movement makes it harder for the
leaders to do the dictating.
Another surprise package was the
poor showing of the Patterson forees, far back in the ruck with barely 50,000 votes. This vote was a
showdown for the CIO and leftwing forces who opposed the presi.

side. The governor is in a _ better
position to bargain and ¢an bask in

From the governor’s standpoint,
it was a timely victory because the

er matter not contained in the hgenda of hte other sessions. _ ~
In order to facilitate matters the
legislature meets in special second
extraordinary session in the mornings and in the afternoons we meet
in regular extraordinary session. So
your legislature is conducting two
sessions each day. However, there is
little confusion as the two special
sessions in one have been well organized.
The most important matter which
will come up for consideration during the present special sessions will
of course be the matter of another
relief appropriation. The fact finding relief committee has filed a part
of its lengthy report and will file the’
balance of the report later this week,
A majority of the legislators appear to favor returning the administration of relief to the counties, with
the state furnishing the funds. This
was recommended Wy the specias
committee referred to aboye. This
committee believes that the cost of
administration of relief by the counties would not exceed 15 per cent as
compared with 25 per cent and
more under state administration.
It is too early to predict what action will be taken on the various revyenue bills sponsored by the administration but I can say that the majority of the legislators are opposed
to increased taxes of any kind.
The present session will probably
last two or. three weeks.
