BACK? bye gt * ‘ Will repeal of the 18th amendment mark the end of the nation’s liquor problems? California editors apparently don’t think so. Unless proper control of the manufacture and sale of liquor is adopted, they say, we may still have the speakeasy flourishing, with all its attendant evils. _ “The faces of the American people are definitely set against the salloon,”’ said the Salinas Index-Journal, “‘but the years of pfohibition have created a new institution in the shape of the speakeasy; where people of both sexes congregate and drink. ‘The elimination of this is not going to. be déne overnight. The reasonable drinker who enjoys liquor in one form or another ‘will be content with the privilege to buy in packages and not consume the contents in the place where the purchase is made. But do not forget there are millions of people who are not inclined that way, and in that fact lies a definite problem.”’ Declaring for stringent control of liquor sales, the Vallejo Times-Herald asks: ““Today, as the eighteenth amendment is passing, are the various states, counties, and municipalities ‘prepared to meet the new conditions? Have they adopted proper regulations? Is the saloon, and all of its attendant evils, definitely legislated out of future existence? We believe ‘that the American people can be trusted to go further along lines of true temperance after repeal than they did during the fourteen years; PROVIDED the various legislative bodies of the land recognize some of the pitfalls and errors of preprohibition days.and guard against them.”’ . According ‘to the Los Angeles Record, “‘It is not a bit too early to start this work. Unless all signs fail, the prohibition law has only a short time to live. The whole problem will then be turned back. to the states, and it is essential that the states have the information which will enable them to:‘make an intelligent choice of their course thereafter.” : In the same vein, the San Francisco News remarks, ‘lt is important that the states lose as little as possible in passing regulations otherwise they will encourage the schemes of racketeers to seize more control. It is even moxe important that these laws should prevent the recurrence of the pre-prohibition evils and advance moderate, open and civilized habits among the people.’’ Commenting on the state the November, 1932 election, the Long . states: a ; “Some Californians now are discovering for the first time that they voted to deprive their own city and their county of . jurisdiction over the liquor trade, while others are surprised to learn from a statement by the state board of equalization that the state law will forbid saloons or bars for the dispensing of alcoholic beverages. Prospective liquor dealers are ‘warned _ that if they invest'in saloon fixtures they will be wasting their money, for saloons are prohibited by the liquor control act. Also, adds the Orange Daily News, “many communities which have legalized the sale of 3.2 per cent beer will object to the sale of hard liquor and will demand the right to control the matter in accord with local sentiment. The principle of local option was well established in this country before prohibition and it is unlikely that any legislature will refuse to grant that right to communities. Until such action is taken, however, liquor control act adopted at Beach Press-Telegram . WEEKLY . By : CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN . Mount. Everest in the Himalayas mountains is five mriles above sea level. Now that scientisis have reach. ed an altitude of over eleven miles they make Everest small in comparison: But this mountain still defies man in his effort to climb to its top. Some day sOmeone: will go up in special balloon and to old Everest’s surprise wlil alight right on top of his storm-marcelled head. I have driven the Downieville road round trip from Nevada City 192 time in 11 months and in that time I ‘have been a participant in. but two minor accidents, one -of which, was: clearly my own fault, the other was as clearly the other man’s fault. Women’ who drive thesg¢, mountain. roads are but few but when I see one coming I-give her a wide berth. It has evidently been:a good idea. to publicize the N.R. A: for the pub‘lic has .almost become _ hysterical about it. The effect has been widespread, generous and helpful to the country as a whole. However, if the merchants in each community will do as those of San Francisco did viz. advertise to beat the band. That’ in itself. will bring out many hidden dollars (IF THE MY@RCHANDISE AND PRICES ARE RIGHT). Let us not have to have special days to do our stuff. Let us go about our business as usual, every day. This sort o living will do a lot to help. VA j 7. The new road from the Veteh ba river bridge to Dobbins Avill soon be under construction. Ay understanding is that tne s6reste men will do the work as¢far as they are available, and then if any more help is needed, other men will be used but it is extremely unlikely that any other help will be needed. There has been some fear this road would divert trade from the twin cities, however there are many who think it will augment the trade, anyway, it is progress and therefore inevitable. that Sedum spathulifolium: that said in English is the name: of the stonecrop, which is. used extensively in rockeries. There are many varieties, all odd, all useful, and in their oddity lies their beauty and the.y growprofusely in this part of California. The preface to “Wild Flowers of California’ by Mary Parsons and Margaret Buck, has an introductory paragraph which I think is worth incorporating. : “To the. thoughtless a flower is often a trival thing—beautiful perhaps, and worthy of a passing glance —pbut that is all. “But to the mind open to the great truths of the universe, it takes on a deeper. significance. Such a mind sees in its often humble beginnings the. genesis of things far reaching and mighty. Two thousand years ago one grain of the shower. of pollen Wafted pon the wind and falling it appears that liquor will be sold freely everywhere.
