Senate Bill No. 249 which was introduced by Senator Jesse Mayo was also one of special interest to the! various counties of the 6th district. . The bill amended an act of the state, legislature which allowed the Uni-. ‘ted States to purchase lands in the. ‘state of California, without first ob-, taining the consent of the legislature. The act as amended provides that no such lands may be acquired ' by purchase under the Weeks Law peeseed by congress: in 1911, without . first obtaining the consent of the aoe of supervisors of the county in which the lands are situated. At the present time the federal government owns 42 per cent of the lands in the state of California and under the Weeks Law contemplates the acquisition by purchase of some three million additional acres. Each acre of land removed from the tax mits, rolls of the state, increases the tax burden on the real property owners land the boards of supervisors should first consent before any further lands are acquired. This bill is the first step in a long range program ‘for the protection of local government. REHABILITATION PLAN WORKS IN THE-ARMY By LEONE BAXTER As well as they remember their wrapped puttees and the mud of foreign camps, veterans of the next to the last World War remember ‘that minor infractions of military rules meant the guard house; that major offenses meant dishonorable discharge and Leavenworth. Both meant tremendous loss of manpower which the Army, building toward 10 million men, can’t afford today. In this war, the penalty for felonies such as murder, narcotics violations and sex offenses are yet unchanged, but there is new and enlightened treatment for men convicted of desertion, absence without leave, petty thievery, involuntary manslaughter, inswbhordination and sleeping on guard duty. To the boys who saw Argonne and Crateaux Thierry and Belleau Wood, the hew procedure sounds somewhat amusing, for it is based on sciences untapped by the Army in the days of Big Bertha and the Jenny. Its fundamentals are psychoGRASS VALLEY-NEVADA CITY HIGHWAY DRIVE OUT AND SEE US Phone 412 o DRIVE-IN MARKET FRESH EGGS LOCAL LARGE GRADE A.

Sidney Shalett, New Yorker making one _of the first civilian surveys of the camps, reports them singularly successful in rehabilitating men who . slip, and getting them back into use;ful service. Camp Pickett, the Vir. ginia post studied: closest by Shajlett, is designed for 18,000 men. ; Once there a soldier is carefully , Studied by a psychiaratry and sociology board, and recommended to the Honor Company to General Prisoner category or to dishonoroble dis‘charge at the expiration of his sentence. Men who make the. Honor (Company, and after training eventually get back into the Army, go into new outfits where their records do not follow. Twenty five per cent of the boys make _— grade at Pickett. The reasons for infractions military regulations should be of ‘particular interest to civilians. Inexperienced juntor officers sometimes cause trouble, the Army adInability to take discipline, causes more. The odd belief that, insubordination opens doors to battle action brings a certain type to prison camp. But most cases of ‘‘going over the hill’? have their incentive in trouble filled letters from home! That the new rehabilitation plan is working better than the plain penal servitude of other wars is indicated by the large percentage of good men returned by the modern method to military duty, proud to be trusted again by Uncle Sam and eager to reclaim themselves in his’ service.
