It signified either’ “slacking”. , or “‘wasting’’ or a combination of both, and was applied to relief measures which accomplished little for the money lavishly expended. Perhaps *‘boondogling”’ is now obsolescent because Federal relief money is not so plentiful and evidences of waste are therefore not so many. The waste that once attached to appointing to lucrative jobs needy politicos and parasitic brass hats, who, in the language of the late Abe Ruef would eat the paint of the White House uxé less satiated with Federal pie, Has moved into higher and more refined spheres, Something like $600,000,000 of old age security pension money deposited in the Federal Treasury, has lingered there very Wriefly.

Both Nevada City and’ Grass Valley will join in observance of-the day. . The Nevada City and Grass Valley high school bands will provide the music both for the parade and the program in Memorial Hall. Howard Bennetts, past commander of the Grass Valley Legion Post, is chairman of the parade committee. He has asked the public school pupils of Grass Valley, and the students in Mt. St. Mary’s Academy to march in the procession as they have for many years past. The American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars and other’ patriotic organizations will march. Mr. Bennetts asks that all those participating, in the parade, form at Mt. St. Mary’s Academy. at 9:45 o’clock Thursday. The procession will march down South Auburn street and traverse the principal business streets, arriving at Memorial hall at 11 o’clock. Other features of the day will be the sports program at Memorial Park in Grass Valley. During the It was pointed out in these columns and in thousands of other newspapers when the Old Age Pension bill was passed that there was no protection provided against raiding by a hard pressed Santa Claus. But at that time we were reassured: “Tush, Tush, your Uncle Sam, the sould of:honesty would not do a thing like that.’’ But it has happened and now the tax payers must not only pay the Old Age Security tax faithfully and promptly, but they must also repay those Federal I O U’s along with interest. Actually of course this generation will never liquidate this new bond issue, nor the 17 billion dollars which the striving after the Abundant Life has already cost. It will be a continuing burden for half a century or more. As a matter of practice, when the Federal government begins to pay Old Age pensions on a basis of the taxes now imposed, unless this borrowing from the Old Age fund is stopped, they will become a charge against current revenues. We have not the least doubt that these pensions will be paid, for this contract is entered into with the great majority of the vottrs. It is a contract which cannot be repudiated, as was the gold clause in government bond issues three years ago, because, while repudiation of the gold clause in general, affected only a few of the detested’ “economic royalists,’ the pension contract affects many ‘millions of voters. ” But now the shoe pinches, The tax burden and the uncertainty attaching to future tax plans has scared investors and speclators in the best American securities. The tax on surplus and_ reserves of corporations have left them a disastrous alternative. Either they may pay the tax which in the case of small growing business corporations is extremely onerous, or they may distribute their surplus in dividends and leave them‘selves without reserves with which to expand, or to cushion the adversity of another depression. It will be remembered that following the erash of 1929, the wealthy corporations with great cash reserves were able to maintain their payrolls and pay scales, when called upon to do so by more than a year following the market debacle. Actually corporations spent billions of their ‘private funds in staving off unemployment, which under present conditions, would mean just that much saving to tax payers. By diverting these corporate funds into the Federal Treasury by the present tax system, the Administration has not only removed from employers the moral obligation they onee felt to look after the welfare of their employes, and thousands of them did feel that obligation, but it has so crippled them and wrapped them around with other restrictions, that the stock market now reflects the sharp distrust with which business men and investors in securities now regard the New Deal. So, for the DINNER DANCE FOR ROTARY CLUB The Rotary club on Thursday evening will hold a dinner dance at the National Hotel to which their wives, sisters, cousins and aunts are cordially invited. Bob Evans in charge of the program for the evening promises that there will be some especially capitvating music for the event.

City MISS LAUREL PHILLIPS West Broad Street ‘November 10, 1937 SOPHTE OLIVER Nevada City November 14, 1937 CHESTER PETERSON * Spring Street — Happy Birthday first time in several years we find President Roosevelt cultivating business leaders and consulting with them. With that inimitable and chameleon quality that characterizes ‘him, -he says in effect, to the wild eyed reformérs who have perfectly insulated him from the realities, and whose adulatio he prizes: ‘Pardon me, if I seem to neglect you for awhile. I must for a time consider means to avoid an impending disaster and for that reason am conferring with ‘hard headed and hard hearted business men.” ‘ I wonder when a dreamer dreams And tells his dream and gges his way, If there is something left behind Which cannot perish and decay. I wonder if the dream remains, A thing of life and beauty still, To steal into the hearts of men And so incline them to its will. I wonder who composed the lines which I now pass along to you. They were found within the pages of an ancient book during the bitter days when our President, Woodrow Wilson, was suffering the fate of the dreamer whose untimely and incomprehensible dream is despised and rejected by the men and women of his time. To my mind the little stanzas so vividly portrayed the position of fame, dignity and high command once enjoyed our unhappy President, and the utter completeness downfall, that memory linked them inseparably with his honored but tragic name. “Once I sat on a golden throne And held the world in fee; But below I heard my brothers moan And I bent me down to see. Lovingly bent and looked on them, But I had no secret pain; I sat aloft in my ruby gem Like a rainbow without the rain: My throne is shattered, helpless I lie At the foot of its golden stair, And the sorrows of all humanity Through my heart make a thoroughfare.” by of his Woodrow Wilson dreamed and told his dream and went his way; rebuffed, disappointed, broken hearted, but the dream did not die. Perhaps in a more propitious time when at length the world is weary of the disgrace, insanity and waste of warfare, it may smile again and lead the way to a true and abiding peace. Meanwhile, in the light of another Armistice Day, let us I think they watch us from some far off shore, Their faces grave with doubt; “Have you kept faith with us?” they cry, I hear the faint, far echo of their shout, = “You go on in the same old, thoughtless way, From day to day—unheeding and unthinking. Our work is done, the rest remains to you; do honor in our hearts to our war time President,; Woodrow Wilson. Let us forget his faults and failures in the contemplation of our own broken faith with those who died to make his dream come true. Have you kept faith with us—have you been true?” ' £ —A. MERRIAM CONNER. . The Camp Fire Girls will be there in force, the Rotary club which is sponsoring Troop 24, the Native Sons, which is the sponsor, and has been for many: years, of Troop 6, and of course the parents of the scouts. Arrangements have been made te have Seaman’s lodge thoroughly warmed, not only the old part of ‘the building but also the new addition which has nearly as much floor space as the original hall. Seating arrangements have also been made so that a large’‘audience may be accommodated. _ Get Flags; Court Of — . Honor Tuesday Night Troop To ] Presiding over the meeting will . be Harley M. Leete, president of the . Rotary club, and Dr. C. W. Chapman, secretary of the Native Sons, which sponsors Troop 26. The presentation of the charter of the new troop will be made by Harris Ricksecker, scout executive of Tahoe area. The two flags will be presented by Andrew Larsen, chairman of the Rotary scout committee, Following these. presentations the court of honor will be held, of which ceremonies Troop 6 will have charge. Presiding over the Court of Honor will be John Fortier’ who will officiate in the absence of Judge Raglan Tuttle who is presiding in Monterey county’s superior court, He will be-assisted by Jeff Mooers, for many years affiliated with scout activities in this city. Scoutmaster Elmer Marriott will present his Troop No. 6 in the beau. tiful candle ceremony, and Secoutmaster Wallace Lewis will introduce the-new Troop 24 to its sponsors, WHO CANBEAT OLSON IS QUERY OF DEMOCRATS By CLEM WHITAKER Who can beat Olson? That query, in recent weeks has become almost an anvil chorus in “regular’’ Democratic conclaves. The party chieftains are convinejed that the nomination of Culbert Olson as the Democratic standardbearer would. spell their doom—just as the nomination of Upton Sinelair played havoc with well laid plans in 1934. : oa Olson, they believe, is ‘a’ ‘‘set-up’’ for their ancient enemies, the ReHe blicans, But the Demodrats—at least the ‘‘regulars’’—have had @lmost as bad a case of. defeatism: when they contemplated Olson as the Republicans have had when they sadly counted that 700,000 Democratic mapority in registration. Olson is still laps out in front (they admit it), even with his colossal blunder in espousing the One-House legislature; Olson is the man to beat! Who can beat Olson? Into this picture steps a comparatively new figure—Herbert C Legg, Los Angeles county supervisor! “Give us a leg up,” say the Legg followers, in effect, ‘‘and well take care of Mr. Olson.”Legg, heretofore, has been somewhat of an off stage character. He has contented himself with a quiet campaign with little or no. publicity. But Ross Marshall, an adept Los Angeles impresario, has been _ busily contacting for Mr. Legg—for lo! these many months. And now, emerges Legg—the compromise candidateAs he promises to figure in the news more and more from now until the Olson challenger is determined upon, perhaps a thumbnail sketch of (Mr. Legg is in order. ~Mr, Legg in 1936, was the Roosevelt manager in Southern California —the fellow who poured oil on troubled waters and united leftists and conservatives behind the President. He was also ‘the compromise choice for vice chairman of the Democratic State Central. Committee—-nominated by Olson, seconded by McAdoo! And that, according to the politicjians, is a phenonemal accomplishment. But Mr. Legg, although a ¢+horough-going New Dealer, is outspokenly against the One-House Legislature, and is considered acceptable to business interests as well as ‘his own party. If they figure (as they may) that a Republican can’t be electeu, business groups might support him: But on the other hand, Mr. Legg was a Sstalwart,.in the fight to return relief administration ‘to the counties (which Governor Merriam stopped by veto) and is also popular with the submerged classes. He: started as a water boy for a railroad construction gang—and later built railroads as a civil engineer of unusual ability. That’s the saga of Mr. took place torney Vernon Stoll of thsi city. JOHN HENNESSY LAID TO REST THIS MORNING Funeral services were held at St. Patrick’s Catholic church in Grass Valley this morning for’ the late John T. Hennessy. Interment was in the Catholic cemetery. Rev. Father James O’Meara was in charge of the services. The body was brought to Grass Valley Saturday from San Francisco where deceased passed away, late Thursday night. John Thomas Hennessy 67 years of age, was born in Grass Valley and spent ‘his entire life there. As a young man he taught school at Allison Ranch and other Nevada county rural schools. Later he aualified as a lawyer and became one of the most eminent in Nevada county. He was senior surviving member of the firm of Nilon, Hennessy and Kelly. Surviving him aré his brother James S. Hennessy of Grass Valley and two sisters Mrs. E. M. Walsh of San Francisco and Miss Sara Hen.nessy of Grass Valley.

That query, in recent weeks has become almost an anvil chorus in “regular’’ Democratic conclaves. The party chieftains are convinejed that the nomination of Culbert Olson as the Democratic standardbearer would. spell their doom—just as the nomination of Upton Sinelair played havoc with well laid plans in 1934. : oa Olson, they believe, is ‘a’ ‘‘set-up’’ for their ancient enemies, the ReHe blicans, But the Demodrats—at least the ‘‘regulars’’—have had @lmost as bad a case of. defeatism: when they contemplated Olson as the Republicans have had when they sadly counted that 700,000 Democratic mapority in registration. Olson is still laps out in front (they admit it), even with his colossal blunder in espousing the One-House legislature; Olson is the man to beat! Who can beat Olson? Into this picture steps a comparatively new figure—Herbert C Legg, Los Angeles county supervisor! “Give us a leg up,” say the Legg followers, in effect, ‘‘and well take care of Mr. Olson.”Legg, heretofore, has been somewhat of an off stage character. He has contented himself with a quiet campaign with little or no. publicity. But Ross Marshall, an adept Los Angeles impresario, has been _ busily contacting for Mr. Legg—for lo! these many months. And now, emerges Legg—the compromise candidateAs he promises to figure in the news more and more from now until the Olson challenger is determined upon, perhaps a thumbnail sketch of (Mr. Legg is in order. ~Mr, Legg in 1936, was the Roosevelt manager in Southern California —the fellow who poured oil on troubled waters and united leftists and conservatives behind the President. He was also ‘the compromise choice for vice chairman of the Democratic State Central. Committee—-nominated by Olson, seconded by McAdoo! And that, according to the politicjians, is a phenonemal accomplishment. But Mr. Legg, although a ¢+horough-going New Dealer, is outspokenly against the One-House Legislature, and is considered acceptable to business interests as well as ‘his own party. If they figure (as they may) that a Republican can’t be electeu, business groups might support him: But on the other hand, Mr. Legg was a Sstalwart,.in the fight to return relief administration ‘to the counties (which Governor Merriam stopped by veto) and is also popular with the submerged classes. He: started as a water boy for a railroad construction gang—and later built railroads as a civil engineer of unusual ability. That’s the saga of Mr. took place torney Vernon Stoll of thsi city.
