Membership in the Red Cross is more than a sentimental indorsement of good will. The entire machinery of Red Cross péace time operations has been geared into a vital part of our miltiary and civilian defenses. Red Cross membership dollars thus far transformed into a tangible means of protecting the American way of life. The American Red Cross is on the job with the Army and Navy here and abroad, providing an important link of . communication. between the service man and his family back, home. With 2.000,000 men under arms this task has grown. almost tenfold. The corps of Red Cross field directors is as-, sisting with experienced counsel and with financial aid to solve . the problems of our service men and their families back home. . Red Cross volunteers are giving their blood for emerg-. ency transfusions in the Army and Navy. In the coming year . some 10,000 Red Cross nurses will have been inducted for . military and naval service. Uniformed volunteers are nearing . completion of 40.000.000 surgical dressings requested by the! Surgeons General of the Army and Navy. For its part in the civilian defense program, the Red) Cross has undertaken the training of 100,000 Nurse’s Aides, an auxiliary corps of volunteers to help relieve the current shortage of registered nurses. During the coming year . ,000,000 men and women will be taught Red Cross first aid as a civilian preparedness measure. Disaster relief preparedness is being widened to meet the challenge of sabotage, fire, explosions and to stand as a backlog of readiness in the event of sporadic bombing or armed invasion. Nutrition and Home Nursing courses will be extended to additional thousands as protective health measure. These are the reasons why the Red Cross asks your support this year. Your membership button is a badge of patriotism, a way you can express your belief in America.

Nevada Colaity tars In Gas Tax Is $19,590 SACRAMENTO, Nov. 10.—(UP) — State Controller Harry B. Riley today apportioned $15,460,786 in gasoline tax funds, the largest quarterly division of revenue from that source ever made. The amount was 11°per cent higher than the’ previous record set in the fourth quarter of 1940. Of the total, $5,153,595 or onethird, went to California’s 58 counties. The remaining $10,307,191 was deposited in the state highway fund from which $2,576,798 will be allocated by the division of highways for highway construction and maintenance within Cities. A total of $7,730,393 will be spent on the state highway system. Nevada county’s share for vehicles was $19,590. Gasoline tax collections for the quarter ended Sept. 30, totaled $16,664,831 Riley said. (Brokers and producers’ licenses and other miscellaneous revenue netted $1,271. However $1,156,204 from the gross reyenue was .refunded to purchasers of 7,994 gasoline not used on public highways. —Join The Red Cross— for our, commander -in chief who has the facts and all the facts—to tell us those facts, and then lead us into action.” And, points out the Orange Daily News, '’there was a time hen the sinking of an American warships would have sent a wave of rage surging through the country. Now it appears to mean no more than big headlines. The reaction to the latest incident in the naval seem that the management of public opinion in the country has been badly handled.” Urging support for President Roosevelt's foreign policy 'the Richmond Independent notes “the president's plan, at the beginning and ever since, has been to extend all-out aid from this country to the naitions battling against Hitler. . This aid is in the form of ship. i ossal bluff intended to prove' ment of materials of war. Under this policy the United States is not declaring any war. It is merely defending the goods and materials manufactured by American workmen for nations overseas with which they are in sympathy. Casualties to American ships and men in any action are the cost of defending the freedom of the ;ed the arrival of the new machinery war is not wholesome.

She said, however, that new machinery had een ordered and when it arrives production would be speeded up and the night work will be eliminated. The council appeared reuctant to curb the activities of the “hot mill” which is working on some national defense orders and at the same time sympathized with Mrs. Hamilton and ‘the petitioners. The council believwould satisfactorily end the dispute. Mrs. Haley said as soon as a suitable location could be found outside the business and residential district the “hot mill’ will be moved, Mrs Belle Douglass appeared before the councilmen and asked that No. 1 firehouse be reconditioned. She said the belfry is in bad shape and is liable to fall and kill or injure someone. Councilman John R. Ivey recalled that the council sometime back had given orders for the razing of the old firehouse. Mrs. Douglass said to destroy. the building would be a “terrible thing to do.’’ She stated that many artists and people from all parts of 'the state and elsewhere come here to see the historic building. She said often they visit with her to obtain information on the history of Nevada City and all of them urge that the ‘‘old style of Nevada City be preserved.’’ She said to them the razing of the old building is to ‘‘destroy your town.” Mrs. Douglass said she appeared before the council in her own behalf and was not officially reresenting any organization. A delegation, with H. E. Kjorlie acting as spokesman, requested the “Declaring the war will not make the Nazi submarine more dangerous, or effect one way
or the other the efficiency of the American naval patrol. Either way the United States navy will continue to protect shipping between America and Iceland, and either way the U-boats will continue to try extension of Calvary Street. The council. informed the delegation George Keller, who owned the right of way for the street . extension, wanted $250, which the trustees considered too much. The board took the position if the right of way could be obtained for $150 or less it is probable the extension could be done. There was some discussion at the meeting of reducing the police force after the first of the year but no action was taken. é The council received a list of the active members of the local fire de-: partment and the active members listed will be covered by insurance.
