wat Oar es Nevada City Nugget 305 Broad Street. Phone 36 A> Legal Newspaper, as defined by statute. Printed and Published at Nevada City. H. M. LEETE Bditor and Publisher 1879 Published Semi-Weekly, Monday and Friday at Nevada City, California, and entered as ‘matter of the second class in the postoffice at Nevada City, under Act of Congress, March 3, mail igai SUBSCRIPTION RATES one’ Har (in Advance) Migrants’ Mecca . . . Harvesting of California's giant crops of cotton and grapes has swung into its home stretch. Soon. the last of the fat white cotton bolls, fairly bursting in its sheath, will have been plucked, and soon, too, will the last luscious grape of this year’s banner crop — over a half million more tons than in 1936! And what of the flivver gypsies and the fruit tramps of California's legions of migrant workers, 250,000 strong? This r, as a matter of fact, that man-sized army of some quarter odd million has been swelled by another 25,000 due to the extraordinarily huge cotton crop. With winter's rain and chilly weather,on the way, California’s transient problem emerges in all its starkness. And the problem has beerr made increasingly pressing by the thousands of homeless migrants; many of them Dust-Bowl refugees who have been swarming into California from other states. Few Californians there are who have not seen a brood of these bedraggled refugees living in some makeshift shelter rigged out of packing boxes, strips of canvas, or a primitive hut of branches and leaves. As long as California remains the mecca of the nation’s dispossessed, certainly the Federal Government must take an increasingly active hand in lending aid and providing better housing for these luckless Americans. And not until all government authorities cooperate in seeking a solution wil! these unkempt colonies of migrant, workers and their desolate shacks be vanquished in California . —as they must and shall.—Contributed. .
