Ep aT J V3 Nevada City Nugget 305 Broad Street. Phone 36. A Legal Newspaper, as “fined by statute. Printed and Published at Nevada City. H. M. LEETE . Editor and FPuv.cssc . 1879. : One Month ... Published Semi-Weekly, at Nevada City, California, and -niered as m: matter.of the second class in Nevada Cityj under Act of Cor.'ess, March 3, SUBSCRIPTION RA'‘LES One year (In Advance) a a Os iota So yd 30 cents Monday and Jlhu:sday . ths postoffice at Ss eee GOOD NEWS FROM NEVADA e Of encouragement to California farmers, producers and shippers—whose sole lifeline to eastern markets is efficient long haul transportation—should be the optimistic editorial opinion expressed by the Reno Evening Gazette on the legal dilemma forced upon 47 western railroads last year by Francis Biddle, then attorney general. Biddle accused the rail carriers of antitrust law violation for procedures long established by the Interstate Commerce Commission, ‘Now that he no longer heads the justice department,” reasons the Evening Gazette, “‘the chances of these suits ever being tried are remote’. However, the Reno paper strongly advocates passage of the Bulwinkle bill, designed to a between . . clear the carriers’ status by designating the ICC as sole regu-. latory power over them. “If enacted, it would serve as a barrier against some future hare-brained attorney general filing an action such as those conjured up last year by Biddle.”’ the editorial reads in part. ““Now it is regarded as a necessary protection for the railroads and the public. If people of other states are as strong for the Bulwinkle bill as Nevadans are, it will become law in the very near future. The list includes carriers, shippers organizations, civic bodies, service clubs, farm organizations and chambers of commerce:. Our legislative representatives in Washington will recognize it as one of the most unanimous requests for legislation that has even come from the people of this state.” It is good news to transportation conscious Californians that their Nevada negihbors are equally determined to smash the unnecessary legalistic barriers that clog the road to market.—Contributed. PISTOL PACKIN’ PATTON Lusty, loose tongued,.hot tempered General George Pat‘ton is ‘““down”’ again. He was up to begin with, as a skilful commander, until he slapped a soldier, then was down a while, in obscurity and public disfavor. Then he was up once more, when he led his armored Third Army in slashing style across Germany. Now he’s down again—disciplined and shifted to a relatively unimportant command for. disregarding the orders of General Eisenhower while military governor of Bavaria. Through these bewildering phases: of this truculent officer’s career, we have a hunch, the American people have developed a fondness for “Old Blood and Guts’’. He simply has glaring faults and weaknesses along with brilliance and courage and honesty, which makes him very much a human being. Some military men are gifted with the ability. to administer civilian affairs, as Generals MacArthur and Eisenhower appear to be. Some military men just don’t have that gift— notably General Grant, a supurb soldier who became a medjocre president. Pistol Paskin’ Patton was deade wrong in slapping a soldier and flouting the policies of his superior officer. But his ability as a military organizer and field leader helped shorten the war and saved the lives of many American soldiers. Posterity will remember him best for that.—Contributde. JUST WONDERIN’ I wonder if the gods of old, Who pitied men of common play, With a deep knowledge o: their need, Gave-them the game we love today— Taught them the use of ball and bat And how to pitch and how to run. And so preserved in this rare form The healing art of fun, I wonder if I have been wasting time;. some may think so, but so many thousands of my countrymen and women wasted theirs in the Same manner that I have my doubts. After all listening to the world eeries, hearing the impact of every bat upon that flying demon of uncertainty the ball keeping track of the runs the number of balls and strikes and visualizing the flying forms of big huskies intent upon winning the pennant for their team, that was recreation and our national game afYou cat about atomic bombs while listening to a base ball game, you can't hate your neighbor worry or cultivate your intolerance toward those of other races than your own, you can't do anything but lfsten and while listening forget the cares that infest the day. Those who were privileged to wit. ness the great games from day to . day, until Detroit finally made its ‘killing .may ‘be tired, but mentally . they have been rested and refreshed. By this time next year I hope that thousands of men and. women who have thus far failed to do so will take advantage of the next best . thing by listening to the games as . they are described by able sports casters and get a full measure of fun jand excitement from our great na. tional game, base ball. Here is an especial reason why the ‘Jadies should learn the ins and outs } fords a fine type of recreation for of base ball; you are,extremely glad . any one who will take the pains to understand and appreciate it. when your husband enjoys your especial enthusiasms and shares them EARL COVEY’S GARAGE 143 EAST MAIN STREET — GRASS VALLEY 3 CHRYSLER PLYMOUTH DEALER Let us install a new DODGE or PLYMOUTH ENGINE, and end your troubles until you get a new car.

Merriam Conner. President-Harding College Searcy. Arkausas Vinson Shortly after Fred Vinson was named Secretary of the Treasury he was quoted in the press as say-¥¢ ing ‘‘the American people are in the pleasant predicament of having to ‘learn to live 50% better than they have ever lived before.’’ When he made this remark he was~talking about a future day, one that had not come then and has not come yet, but a completely possible future day. : Hitler was no longer a menace, when the new Secretary spoke of a 50% higher living standard in America, but Japah. still clouded the Pacific, Now that has cleared up also and today’s national problem is economic rater than strategic. The strain is no less, but in a Gifferent place. Ease _ felt’ in America as firing ceased was like tkrelief of changing hands with ¢ heavy burden. Load is on Vinson About a month ago this column carried an outline of Mr. Vinson’s tax policies which I-frankly-consider sound. Now, in view of the changed international picture, it is high time everybody knew more about this generalissimo of post-war finances, czar of economics in the world’s most important country. He is a key man on the team that has to win if liberty, civilization and enlightenment survive. Fred Vinson is 55 years old. Half a century ago he was playing in the yard of the jailhouse-in Louisa, Ky. His father was county jailer. The next year he started to school. i . His coarse hair is half gray now and he has some loose skin under his chin but’ he’s recognized as the “best in his line’’ and on a job where everybody wishes him well if that’s success. A Serious Student Louisa, with some 2,000 inhabitants, is across the Big Sandy river from West Virginia. There young Vinson entered school, there was elected district attorney and from there went to Congress in 1922. At Center College, Danville, Ky., he worked in the library to help pay expenses, took a leading part in athletics and averaged above 95 in grades all through college and law school, Mr. Vinson is a penetr¢ting thinker. He has years of experience in government and he knows taxes. He is a recognized fiscal expert. That’s what put him on the Ways & Means committee and here his ability is still respected. He has been a Federal judge, the successful economic stabilizer of this country, also director of war mobilization: and reconversion—the job that’s known as “assistant president.’’ To Make More Jobs Vinson has many prime qualifications for his present job. Anent his thoroughness, it came out a time or two in connection with his work as chairman of the tax section of the Ways & Means committee that he knew more than his witnesses themselves about testimony they submitted. Recolléction of these incidents naturally tends to keep alive Vinson’s influence among congressmen which isa big asset. It is told that he studied beforehand the financial statements of big corporations whose officials were to testify, and his questioning them proved repeatedly that he knew more about certain aspects of a corporation’s business than did its president. This is the man who planned a tax program to create the most jobs, instead of merely raising revenue for the government, something IT have been shouting from the housetops for four years.
