Delinquent Voters. i
Pondering that year after year some non-voting citizens
of his community remain deaf to his editorial plea to.“’get out
and vote,” the editor of the Carmel Pine Cone last week issued an ultimatum. All who are eligible to vote and fail to do
so, he declared, will find their names printed in a post-election
list of delinquent voters. If that editor's plan steps up the vote
in Carmel, it should be copied universally. The slacker at the
polls is, in simple logic, tarred with the same brush as_ the
slacker who refuses to help defend his country against armed
invasion. :
And in these days, when radicals and irresponsible vis-jonaries take advantage of an economic depression to rouse
of unsound or malicious proposals, the duty of the responsible .
citizen to use his ballot wisely and on every voting occasion .
is a patriotic duty of the highest order. The voter swayed by .
emotional harangues or specious arguments must be counter.
balanced by the man or woman of sense and intellectual in-'
tegrity. if our democracy is to work for the best interests of .
the American people. The current stand of the binertican ble-.
in the Legislature, against destructive’ tax demands to satisfy .
bureaucratic extravagance, and its refusal to countenance con-.
tinue Communist domination and chiseling in State relief ad-'
ministration, attest the conscientious action of men and wom-,
and as,
Democrats or Republicans second. They demanded tax econ-'
omy and a relief cleanup—and elected the men, irrespective
of party, who now constitute that economy bloc. In the long.
run, the people get what the voters demand; and only by ex-.
ercise of sound citizenship at the polls may State and nation . Codtnn to padad these tenes 0
be protected from outer dangers and the follies of demagoguemisled: groups within.Publicity for ballot slackers seems. censure déserved.
Property owners in tax arrears are given publicity, although in
many cases they are innocent of laxity and simply unable to
pay—whereas the delinquent voter has no excuse whatever
for dodging his responsibiltiy of citizenship.

GREATFALLS, Mont. (U.P.)—
When the City Council limited beer
licenses to one for every 750 population and retail liquor licenses to one
for every 1,500 persons, its action
was received two ways. Supporters
Said it would prevent the growth of
police and social problems. Opponents insisted it created a monopoly.

A lot of Washington’s bureau
bosses are on need!tes and pins these,
days, fearful that Congress is about,
to limit their powers over American
citizens.
Everybody knows that scores of
new bureaus and agencies and commissions have been created in recent
years to administer new laws. Everybody realizes, too, that it would be
impracticable and impossible for

should be enforced For example,
Congress hardly could specify the
kind of books which should be kept
to record payroll taxes for Social
Security.

HOLLYWOOD (U.P.)—Hollywood

‘shaving cream without ill effect, .a

“Candy probably pinch-hits for
more things in motion pictures than
any other foodstuff,’ said Darrel
Silvera, chief of the property department at RKO Radio studio. “It is
fashioned into thin wine glasses that

It is used as ball fringe on curtains

, You're In The Army Now
Should war come to the U. S. A., you'd be in it! How
vastly military science has changed from times when only
fighting men were called to the colors, is revealed by national
mobilization plans of the Army general staff. Already millions
of Americans, of all ages and occupations, are catalogued in
War Department files. Only young, able-bodied men would
be drafted directly into the Army, Navy and Air forces. But
if you are a crab fisherman, just beyond the bloom of youth.
_you might find yourself and your boat laying mines outsid__.... world. Showing her deep appreciation, she came back to sing,
___._.__in history—singing outdoors ‘“The Last-Rose-of Summer’ for
California harbors. As an operator of trucks, you might suddenly be using your equipment to help prepare the runways
for an air base. As a welder, you and your tools might, overnight, be called from peaceful construction to the building of
bombers. And that mobilization of the butcher, the baker* the
candlestick maker, along with the soldier, would come with
lightning swiftness, according to general staff plans worked
out to the last detail. :
The will to peace is yet the strongest force against war.
But if America ever again should be forced into conflict, the
supreme objective would be to defend this nation successfully; and if such sweeping mobilization of industry and labor
would be essential to that end, it is well to have planned and
ready. So, to-all intents and purposes, whoever you are and
whatever you do—you’'re in the Army now!
Tetrazzini
There is something nostalgic for California in the passing
of Luisa Tetrazzini, the lady of the golden voice, in faraway
Milan, Italy. She loved California, with reason—for in California, at the old San Francisco Tivoli Theatre before the 1906
disaster, she first received the tumultous acclaim that elevated
her to the operatic heights in America, and subsequently the
on Christmas Eve, 1910, before the greatest musical audience
250,000 California music lovers. The deeper nostalgia, going
‘beyond music, is for such times, and such nights—with Cali,_ fornians coming hundreds of miles to hear an artist sing an
old-fahioned song in an untroubled world of simplicity and
peace. That was before the first World War, before nations
gave themselves over to international slaughter, to wholesale
hate and blood and destruction—when the singing of a fine
artist, rather than the outcome of battle, was a great event.
California is still at peace; but the skies here, as verywhere,
are troubled; there is apprehension. The death of Tetrazzini
the issuance of rules and regulations;rugs, soap, beer mugs and dinner
telling those affected by the laws, plates if necessary. Candles often are
what they must do to comply with! made from candy when a comedy sit' them. :
. But with the type.of people who
lare running some of these bureaus,
there naturally has been’ bad administration mixed with the good.-In
, 1937, for instance, a special commis.
'sion appointed by the President
'found that there were 134 such ag/encies, constantly increasing in number. The commission added in its reyort to the President:
“They (these bureaus, agencies,
etc.) constitute a ‘headless’ fourth
. branch of the government, a hhaphazard deposit of irresponsible agencies
and uncoordinated powers, The Congress has found no’ effective way—of
supervsiing them, they cannot be controlled. by .the President, and they
are unanswerable to the courts only
in respect to the legality of their activities.”’
To set up some control over these
agencies the so-called Walter-Logan
Bill was written. It is very simpie.
It would do nothing ,but establish
uniform methods by which these government aigencies £0 about the business of writing rules and regulations
and enforcing laws. It would require
bureaucrats to hold hearings on proposed regulatory orders. It .would
establish simple mechanisms’ by
which any citizen who felt he had
been harmed by a regulation could
appeal for a change of redress. It
would permit the Supreme Court to
direct that all agencies who try citizens for alleged law violations follow accepted court procedure.
In submitting this bill to the Senate, the Senate Judiciary Committee
unanimously agreed that ‘time has
come when some of these regulators
consider themselves above the statutes and when they show contemptuous disregard for both the Congress
and the courts.” 5
The House Judiciary Committee,
with only one member dissenting,
also approved the bill. And the dissenter said that something was necessary to control these various commissions or ‘‘we shall drift into some’
sort of executive domination if not
totalitarianism, with a complete subordination of the legislative and judicial branches of the government
to the. executive branch.”’

It is perhaps only natural that the
bureau ‘bosses should object to anything which would limit their powuation demands that a player eat
' them,
“Whites of eggs take the place of
shampoo cream or lotions because
there is no danger to the player’s
eyes. We used 100 eggs in the shampoo for Ginger Rogers in ‘Shall We
Dance.’ Whites of eggs also are used
in bubble baths, such as that Joan
Crawford took in “The Women.’ The
bubbles last longer and photograph
better than would real soap. Also,
they do not mar a player’s make-up.
“In ‘Vigil in the Night,’ candy cigarettes were used in the scene in
which the nurse sWallows her fag.
“Among-other substitutes used by
the movies are catsup for blood; corn
Syrup for glue; flour cement and
mortar; Worchestershire sauce for
ink; honey and chocolate syrup for
paint and small onions for marbles
which are to be eaten.
“Tea is substituted for many kinds
of drinks from hard liquor to light
wines. The required shade is obtained
by diluting the tea with water.’
Silvera says the funniest scene he
ers and authority. At any rate, some
of them openly and some secretly are
lobbying against the bill, despite a
law which forbids any government
agent or agency to attempt to influence the course of legislation.
These lobbyists hope to bottle the
bill up in the senate. They must succeed in doing so, unless there is substantial demand for the bill from
the ‘‘grass roots’’—constituents back
home.
Examples of bureaus and commissions and. “emergency bodies’’
which would have to walk with a
softer step if the Walker-Logan Bill
became law are manifold. But the
single ggvernment body which exemplifies best the type of attitude
that the proposed legislation is seeking to correct is the Wagner Labor
Relations Board. Those acquainted
with the Washington scene are well
aware of this fact and so they knew
what was meant when an observer
informally remarked:
“Tf you want to see the most complete presentation of reasons why the
Walter-Logan Bill should be passed,
you can find it simply by reading
the records of ‘the ‘Wagner Board’s
decisions.” °e6 107 mm street Nevada County Photo Center

not only has taken from Salifornia a beloved friend, but has
given us wistful reminder of an era of tranquility, of unvexed
love of simple pleasure, that now seems as long gone as the

apparently ate his rubber’ bath
