President Roosevelt's action in setting forth: his views on
_ araments and peace is a message to 54 nations is regarded by
some California editors as a courageous attempt to promoting
world harmony.
Others, however, while designating the move as commendable, recall the unsuccessful efforts of Woodrow Wilson
15 years ago and express doubt that any desirable results will
be accomplished.
Record, “‘as direct and simple as those he has given for domestic consumption, is specifically addressed to the rulers of the
nations. But its plea for success of the economic and disarmament conferences as a means of affecting ‘the happiness, the
prosperity, and the very, lives of the men, women and children
who inhabit the whole world,’ is a message for the peoples
rather than their leaders. If it reaches the rank and file without
distortion by governmental heads, the appeal of this new leader in world affairs should have real influence.”’
“The President’s proposal is neither a "holier-than-thou’
attitude nor an unwarranted assumption of the power his
country holds in the affairs of the world,” remarked the E]
Centro Imperial Valley Press. “‘It is nothing more than a statemen that right is right, that peace is right and that war is
wrong, and an invitation to the nations of the world to recognize his truth ad abide by it.”
According to the Merced Sun-Star, “wherever his message reaches it will become the ralyying cry for enlightened
millions who see all modern civilization now at the edge of an
engulfing crevasse, who would end this cycle of international
bloodshed and misery and oppression by striking at the economic cause which lies beneath. In most lands, unfortunately,
the message will fall short of its real object. Only in England
and America among all the great nations does freedom of
speech and of the press still remain to the degree that such an
utterance may be sure of its goal.”’
“Maybe the dark forces that have been gaining in
strength of late will not give heed to those words,” said the Salinas Index Journal, ‘‘but at least this country can have pride
in the knowledge that the hand of its president was decisively
raised in the hope of averting disaster. Much remains to be
done if the dream of peace is to be realized. More and more
does it become apparent that our ‘‘splendid isolation’ from the.
family of nations must be abandoned if we are to'exert effective, continued influence to prevent war, and to bring amity
and understanding in time of peace to all nations.”
“Some will critize and say that it will ultimately be the
means of bringing about a war,’ comments the San Jose News.
“That is not the intent or purpose. He plainly states that any
nation refusing to enter into his agreement immediately goes
on record as being against peace and, therefore, the other nations will know how to deal with that particular nation.
Warning that “‘the president needs to watch his step,” the
Sacramento Bee adds:
“Once our country is involved in the turmoils and conflicting aims and purposes of the old world, no one can foresee
the sea of troubles into which the ship of state will be
_plunged.”’

OF CONDEMNED
STACRAMENTO, .May 22—(UP)
—As a fabricator of strange excuses
to put off executions, Governor J.
Rolph probably has no peer in the
United States.
Flimsy and often humorous reasons are advanced by the chief executive as reasons for granting reprieves to condemned _ criminals,
awaiting in a death cell the final call
of the executioner.
Last reagon the governor offered
anniversary.
Albert Fuller was’ scheduled to
die at San Quentin June 9. Suddenly the governor recalled the anniversary.
“Tt wouldnt be right to hang a man
on my brother’s anniversary,’’ he observed seriously, and promptly set
the execution date ahead a week.
Here are a tew sample explanations of why reprieves were granted
in recent cases: :
Because the execution was set for
St. Patrick’s day.
' Because the day set for the hanging was the condemned man’s birthday.
Because an execution was schedul‘ed for Good Friday.
Because the bank holiday was in
effect. .
Because the governor had difficulty in sleeping. (This ‘time ‘he
arose at 2 a. m. after tossing fitfully in his bed for hours, came
down to his office, and after discussing and deliberating over the matter,
granted the reprieve.) :
Because an accomplice had Seon
granted a reprieve. : :
Practically every murderer can expect at least a 30-day reprieve. The
first extension is granted for a logical reason. The governor announces
he wants additional time in which to
investigate the case. It is the second
and third and so on when the peculiar reasons are advanced.
If there were. an execution every
week, there would be little business.
transacted in the governor’s office.
The chief executive frets and stews
and worries constantly. Last few
nights before any condemned man
steps “off the deep end,” likely as
not the governor cannot sleep. If
and when an anti-capital punish-.
ment bill is ever passed, the happiest
man in the state will be the governor.

named would have provided that
mere membership in an organization
designed to overthrow the government would not be constituted a
criminal offense. The legislature
did, however, pass the pari-mutuel
horse race betting bill only to have
it vetoed by the governor. The measure was then passed again in the
form_of a constitutional amendment
to be submitted to the people. It also
passed ‘‘yellow dog’’ bill after first
amneding out its anti-injunction
clause.

The measure also provided cities
would receive an additional quarter

CAMPTONVILLE REPORTS
BUILDING ACTIVITY
CAMPTONVILLE, May 18—Considerable activity is noted locally in
the building line. Ross C. Zaring,
whose home was destroyed by .fire
during the snow, is erecting a new
modern home on his lot on upper
Main street, which will be a very
good addition to the town.
H. C. Harmon, who formerly resided here, returned a short time
ago, purchased a lot on Main St.,
from Mrs. Grace Peterson and will
start shortly in erecting a modern
bungalow in which to live. He has
traveled -all over the country and
thinks this place the most‘ideal of
any he has found to live in.
The Board of trustees of Camptonville Union School District have
Lee Bullington, local carpenter, with
a helper in erecting a new foundation and porch on the house of their
acerage on Main street. Mrs. Kate
resides in the house.
BOND DEBT OF
COUNTIES DROPS
SACRAMENTO, May 22—(UP)—
For the first time in years the bonded indebtedness. of California counties is on the down grade.
Accumulation of financial transactions compiled by Ray L. Riley, state
controller, shows that the bonded indebtedness of California counties decreased from $304,632,034.78 in
1930 to $291,842,813.97 las year
after a steady increase had been
shown in the bonded debt which
amounted to only $50,841,291 in
1915.
Taxpayers of Nevada county are
faced with a total bonded debt, including outstanding county and district bonds, amounting to $143,750
the report revealed,
While . counties apparently are
learning the danger of such debts,
the same eannot be said of the state
and municipal governments.
The bonded indebtedness of cities,
for instance, increased from $413,665,832.34 in 1930, to $449,560,927, despite the fact that receipts
fell off in the same period from
$296,582,509 to $224,587,220.
Days of Gold
By BEHTHA JOY DELLEA
In the days of old;
The time, the new found Gold,
The Pioneers came to hold,
Some were rather old;
But all carried a large heavy load;
And many a thing they had sold
To come out West and dig for Gold
Men that were rugged and bold;
And not afraid of storm or cold.
Beside the clear running streams,
Stood the tired drinking teams,
And scattered ‘here and there;
Under the shade of great gian trees;
Were little children fair,
And many cabins too;
Behind the hidden valleys were
glorious views;
Not only Mines; but Historic old
Shrines;
That was in the days of old,
The time, the new found Gold.
It is still the same today;
Men with packs have come to stay.;
They come from city’s far away,
To: seek this hidden Gold;
Men that will] dig and work
And count not time or Day,
Or other duties shirk;
Willing to rest-on_a_bed of. hay,
For the pleasure to earn and hold
this Gold.
employes’ salaries, the drastic cut in
superior judges’ salaries and abolition of over 40 jobs held by special
state attorneys.
The session was complicated by a}
running fight between the legisla.
ture and the governor. This was in.
tensified by the Inman investigating .
committee reports . which charged .
maladministration in several state .
departments. Climax of this phase .
of the legislative-executive
came when first the governor answered the Inman committee and, the
the committee members
bitterly criticised on the senate floor
Rolph and his administration. For
the first time in over 40 years, the
legislature overrode a ”° governor’s
veto. Three county government bills
he had disapproved were passed despite his disapproval.
Fundamental differences between
senate and assembly killed much legislation. The upper house was rural, .
conservative and almost fanaticaiy
economical. The lower house was liberal, progressive, urban-controlled
