OLSON FAILED IN HIS FIRST DUTY THE STOCKTON RECORD Political campaigns have something akin to a book. Full appreciation comes only through understanding the factors which lead up to the climax. Thee are many reasons why California’s gubernatorial . campaign has reached its present pitch. In the Record’s opinion, however, there is ors reason which has contributed: more to fixing voter opinion than any. other. That reason is best expressed in the simple statement: Governor Olson has refused . to work WITH the California legislature—even to the point of refusing to permit the legislators to meet during the greatest emergency in state and national history. Governor Olson's attitude toward the men and women California voters e'ect to represent them in Sacramento has become a basic consideration in the election campaigm It runs deeper than personal feelings. It is bigger than any single controversial issue. It transcends partisanship. It overshadows the Olson efforts to “purge” those who refuse to do his bidding. It involves public policy. . ~ As every voter knows, Governor Olson has been fighting the California legislature for more than three years. That he failed dismally in hs efforts to purge legislators and _ has less contro! of the legislature today than before, is, however, not the major consideration of the moment. The important point is that. being unable to force the legislators to do his exact bidding, Governor Olson has deliberately refused to per‘mit the legislature to act on war-urgency matters.Neither war nor a fresh voter expession of confidence in legislators has shocked him into stepping down from his rule-or-ruin policy. Governor Olson’s answer to all this is that this is a campaign year, and therefore not a proper time to call politic=!!y minded legislators into session. That answer might be made to anply at the moment, now that we are within two weeks of:an election. _ But, .it means little to men and women who last spring were asking simplifiction of birth certificates restrictions so they cou work in defense industries. It means little to cities which cannot purchase fire equipment until the legislature meets. It means little to mothers who had hoped some state provision could be made to assist in the care of children while they engage in defense work. ' It means little to dozens of groups in dire need of legal clarification and simplification to spread defense efforts. It means little to patriotic citizena wha want ACTION, not stalemate. It means little to the 1,040,008 Democrats and Republicans who voted for Earl Warren at the August primary election as a protest against continuation of what had occurred. True, no svecial session of the legislature should be called.two weeks before the election, but the year 1942 started with the month of January. The election takes place in the eleventh month and the need for a special session has been clearly obvious during each month of the year. California voters find themselves in this position todav. They have already re-elected, at the August primary, a legislative majority which will not bow meekly to. Olson. dictates. They know from past experience that Governor Olson holds a personal grudge against these legislators and hasn't the slightest inclination to try to work WITH the legislature. At the same time the voters realize théfe must be early action on many legislative matters of vital importance to the state asa whole—matters which require cooperation between the legislative and administrative branches of our government. It is the Record’s opinion that the present day predictions that Earl Warren will be elected governor on November ‘3 are due largely to the fact that voters want-ACTION, not a bickering’ deadlock in government. Earl Warren is:a man who can work WITH the legislature elected’ by the people. Governor Olson has worked himself into a position from which he can neither dictate nor progress. sont RET ane & ~~ DON’T HOARD RUBBER Uncle Sam has asked—rather has demanded—that. all autoists with more than five tires for their car sell the extra ‘easing to the government in order that they -may be distributed where they are needed most. . oe The penalty for possessing more than five tires will be denial of a gas ration card. And those who attempt to hoard} extra tires and still obtain ration cards will face a 10 year prison term and a $10;000 fine. In this war, when most of our sources of natural rubber are in the hands of the enemy, hoarding of this vital commodity is little short of treason. Because of the widespread need of rubber in the manufacture of tanks, planes, guns, trucks and other war weapons hoarding, by virture of the fact it helps to slow down production is an act of direct aid to the enemy. Waste of rubber falls into the same category, for there is virtually no replacement of existing supplies. Tires which are destroyed by improper use must be replaced from rubber in our fast dwindling reserves until new sources are found from which to produce rubber. — ¢. There should be no grumbling or discontent over the government's decision to take over excess tires. Every person who calls himself an American should accept this move, without a murmur, accept it in the same spirit with which our fighting men are going forth to the battlefields of the world. . : _ And if any refuse to make this small sacrifice,.then the government should act swiftly to exact the full penalty of the at A rubber hoarder is a slacker, a draft-dodger, a traitor.

A'SALUTE IS MORE THAN A GESTURE _ Military men have always had some form of the salute since the beginning of history, but the salute rendered by the free, democratic American soldier heabs little resemblance to that of his ancient brother. LJ The form and meaning of the salute has been different ‘in each country and in each era. The soldier living in ancient . Greece was a free man who fought to preserve his freedom— ‘he was well disciplined and gave respect to his superiors in ‘arms. But this respect was given freely. His simple salute was 3 gesture of greeting and recognition. When the Roman em'perors fought their way to old-world domination they did it for conquest—not for protection of their homes. This fact . changed the character of the Roman armies, which were made up of bondsmen and mercenaries. The salute of the soldier, : when he raised his hand with a sword in it, was an act of acknowledging his subjugation to his master and a pledge of duty to him. . Moving into the Middle Ages with its seign of feudalism we come to that semi-omantic period of knights in armor and fair ladies. Each overlord had his own armies with which to aid him in conquering lesser nobles. Many forms of the salute were in vogue, but the underlying motive in the salute was one of protection. and a means of recognizing a friend or foe. visor of his helmet so that he could be recognized—and raised his right. arm»to show that his sword hand was free. When the latter Middle’Ages merged into the 14th century this raising of the arm became standard salute among men of arms. In the late 14th century Italy became the central world nower and the cumbersome armor gaye way to lighter equipment. Long flowing capes and feathered hats became the vozue among the nobility of the Renaissance. salure was predominantly a.means of showing that a man was unarmed and friendly. During this time, upon meeting anoth>r. a man would throw, his cape back over his shoulder and raise his right arm to prove to the other that he was unarmed. This form and intent of the ‘salute continued in Europe through the hectic reigns of the Frech and Middle-European monarciés. : ; It was left for the military men of the New World and England to develop a form of salute which stemmed from the ancient Greeks—that which bespeaks a mark of respect and greeting.
