BADGE OF PATRIOTISM
Because of greatly increased responsibilities in the nateional defense program the Red Cross has appealed to the nation for a 1941 membership comparable to that of the First
World War when more than 18,000,000 adult Americans
gave their support. 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.

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.

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

meeting and informed the council
increased business made operation of
the mill at night necessary. 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.
