First 99 Years Vv If the California Wool Growers Association had taken a 99-year lease when it started in San Francisco, it would -be having new lease troubles this year. This is another way of saying the venerable organization will hold its 99th an2 nual convention in San Francisco next week, August 13-14. The sheep industry is as old as: California itself, as the Franciscan fathers brought sheep with them when they started to settle California in 1769. .The industry has had many ups and downs since then ‘but the sheepmen stay doggedly with their flocks and they deserve every Californian’s commendation for doing so. ’. Some of the problems which confront them in their . 99th year are whoppers, but, undiscouraged, the sheepmen . These problems include a huge inlaxab from Australia and New Zealand, acute dissatisfaction with federal grading of lamb to whichT they attribute an almost static per capia consumption. of lamb in the United States, and, of course, the displacement of wool by a host of synthetic fibers. With 99 years of fighting for survival behind them, who’ can doubt: the the sheepmen will triumph over these” and other problems, too? All Californians will hope so— and should be willing to help them, too. Oo A Disturbing Dissent Opposition of some truckers to a measure passed by the Legislature requiring air brake safety devices on all trucks is difficult to understand, and disturbing to contemplate.” The device required by SB 1073 would automatically compensate for failure in the air brake system and make possible a stop that well could save lives and property— both of the trucker involved and of the general public. Opponents of the measure claim the devices are not yet fully. proved—but, as the San Francisco Examiner points out, 500 municipal transit buses have carried such safety equipment for three years and 45 million‘’miles on the famed but dangerous hills of that city,, and not a single brakefailure accident has been recorded, despite many known brake failures. That should establish the safety issue firmly. re) Sweet Sixteen is the San Francisco Farmers Market ‘this month.

He said that up to July 15 Galifornia had suffered 2,077 forest fires this year, compared with 1,662 in the same period in 1958. More than 83,000 acres have been burned this year, compared with 35,000 acres in1958. Since July 15, the Governor declared, 11 major fires have burned more than 30,000 acres. es 2. @ & Governor Brown last week announced that bids are being advertised by the Department of Water Resources on Frenchman Dam, first of a series of projects on the Upper Feather River which are part of the statewide water development prégram. : The job calls for construction of a small earthfill structure on Little Last Chance Creek in Plumas County. Bids will be opened in Sacramento on August 26. Work on tHe project, a 128-foot high structure creating a 51,000 -acre-foot storage reservoir, will begin.in September and be completed before the 1960-61 rainfall season. : The dam is one of five small units on the Upper Feather River, all designed to provide irrigation water, assist in flood control and help meet some of the area’s growing recreation needs. They are part of the state’s $2 billfdn Feather River and Delta Diversién_ Project. The Legislature appropriated $2,060,000 in this year’s budget for work on Frenchman Dam. Land acquisition already has been completed. s*¢#28 Governor Brown has set October 20 as the date for a special election in the 56th Assembly District in Los Angeles’ Each Park, Silver Lake ,and Atwater areas. The election will be held to fill the vacancy created by the reeent death of Republican Assemblyman Seth J. Johnson. Plans Laid To Expand Calif. Hog Industry Foundations for a greatly expanded hog industry in California were laid at a enthusiastic meeting held at the Hotel Stockton here July 30. More than 300 persons interested in raising hogs heard outstanding speakers on ‘a day-long program tell how they believed California’s present production of about 335,000 hogs annually could be increased to 6,000,000 hogs a year, profitably. The meeting adopted a resolution calling on “all organizations and agencies in a position to assist in the establishment of a sound, expanded hog industry in California to join to the fullest extent in seeking to establish this importartt addition to the state’s economy.” Other resolutions asked the Giannini Foundation of the Univer‘sity of California to make an ecoents chic ter ee California hog industry and requested the U.C. Agricul‘tural Extension Service to ¢msemble, evaluate and distribute Molten Salts Seen As Nuclear Reactor Fuel Uranium salts, mixedwith other molten salts¢ may make a better fuel for high temperature nuclear reactors than uranium metal rods now in use. So says Dr. Haakon Flood of Norway. a noted authority in the field of molten salt, chemistry basic also in metallurgy and ceramics. He is visiting professor af engineering at the University of California, Los Angeles, and servng as advisor to American atomic installations on chemical problems of fueling reactors with uranium salts. He explains that unranium metal rods have two major disadvantages. They lose their shape when exposed to radiation from the fission process. And they do not work continuously ,since the rods have to be taxen out of the reactor to remove impurities caused by fission products. _ Reactors using molten uranium salts may overcome these disadvantages. The salts, in liquid form, do not chang® shape, and can be continuously purified by a cycling process, in which the liquid is pumped out, purified, and returned to the reactor. On the other hand, the use of molten salts raises some new problems,.-such as finding the proper material for the salt containers. Important investigations along these lines have been reported by the Oak Ridge laboratories. During. the fall semester, Dr. Flood will teach a special UCLA course in high temperature salt chemistry. In his own country, he is professor of inorganic chemistry at the Norwegian Institute of Technology; and head of the Institute of Silicate Seience.

The farmer in the rural county who owns that particular farm may not be anxious to sell. But if he is offered $2,000 an acre for his land, when he knows that its agricultural value is less than half of that, he’s more than likely to let it-go and look for a new place of his own.

Taxes Going Up Enough of thesse inflated sales are taking place, apparently, to affect farm land values generally in rural counties. More importantly, from the standpoint of farmers Who intend to stay in the busihess and have no wish to sell, such transactions are having the effect of forcing the assessed valuations of farmland Gpward, thus increasing property taxes, which to farmers are an important part of the cost of doing business. .

Early One distrubing effect of this quiet rural revolution, the Yuba County survey, indicates, is that much of the new population in unincorporated areas doesn’t pay its way through property taxes for the tax paid services it requires, thus imposing an increasing burden on the farmers who for the foreseeable future prepose to keep using their land for agricultural purposes. i .
