Senator Richard Dolwig Explains Why The State Should-Be Split In Half State Senator Richard Dolwig of San Mateo County raised specters of a southern California powerand resource grab Monday in a speech before the Nevada County Re publican Women's Club in Grass Valley. His solution to this threat is to split the state into two states, Hetold a large crowd of Republicans at the luncheon meeting in The Office Monday that he had already introduced one bill todo this and would introduce a similar measure in 1967. Requests for such action, he said, are coming from both the northern and southern sections of the state. His idea would be to split the state somewhere in the area of Santa Barbara. He pointed out that because of reapportionment, the north was losing its representation and faced the loss of its power, water andresources to the south, He added that by splitting the OMG MOTI G OIG MOG WORLD PRESS DISPATCHES The United States Continues To Press The War And Peace In VIET NAM, American troops continued to press attacks on several fronts in an effort to pin _down and destroy.growing numbers of Viet Cong and North Vietnamese regular troops.

Dolwig warned the Republicans that the nation is facing a political dictatorship and cited the report of a group of political scientists to back up his feeling. Hetracedthe growth of the Huey Long regime in Louisiana and outlined how Long had systematically undermined the basic American system of checks and balances in his climb to power. The Senator also warned that the federal government was getting too much involved in local school systems, He said districts are applying for federal aid not because they need it, but because it is there and they do not want to miss out on their share. : An opponent of school unification, Dolwig noted that unification started out ‘as a local sides have already indicated they would vote against the proposal, eeeees French President CHARLES DE GAULLE, in one of his semiannual news conferences, said this week that he would continue to withdraw French troops from the NATO alliance andindicated that after 1969 any remaining foreign troops on French soil would have to Come under French command, @oee8es8 Vice president HUBERT HUMPHREY this week continued his far eastern good will tour in an effort to explain the American position in Viet Nam and to enlist the military aid of several southeast and pacific nations.

Dolwig also took a shot at Governor Brown and his fight with the California Democratic Council, He noted that Brown forced the CDC to oust its president Simon Casady because of his anti-government statements
on Viet Nam, and then the or-' ganization turned around and elected a man with almost the same ideas, He told the local GOP ladies that there was a resurgence of Republicanism across the nation because people were finding the Great Society too big and too costly. Mrs, Kim Stevenson of Grass Valley, president of the Republican Women, introduced the senator and presided at the meeting. (Continued from Page 1) This can be corrected, but at the present time, they can't sell i. o This news created more complications and raised several _ new questions in the dispute over whether the high school board had in fact agreed to lease the junior high building when it approvedthe resolution to dissolve the junior high operation. Whether the current Grass Valley District is the same district named in the deed granting the use of the property, did the Grass Valley District give up its interest when the Nevada Union High School District was formed and w hat is the position of the mining company on the matter? All of these questions will have to be answered before the matter is cleared up. The county counsel's office is not the one to do the job since it has to represent the interests of both of the contesting disWeather NEVADA CITY Max. Min.

Discovery Of Old Deed Clouds The Picture On Ownership Of Junior High tricts, Grass Valley moved quickly Monday to start getting answers, Trustee Mrs, Lou Kennedy said the matter had been discussed by both boards and by both administratorson -manyoccasions-and nothing has come of it except to discontinue the juniorhigh. She said the district has 400 children No Solution Is Reached On Bus Pool (Continued from Page 1) paid by the high school district alone, In answer to questions, he said there was no way under the law by which the other two districts could share these costs, He maintained that if the districts wanted a pool, then it should be run as a pool with no disruptive changes which would throw off the scheduling. While it was admitted that there were many problems with the current pool arrangement, the trustees of the other districts felt they conid be worked out by the district's pool representatives andthrough more central scheduling control, Grass Valley board members felt they had been justified in extending their day because of the additional educational benefits to their students. While it had caused disruptions, they did not want to go back to the original schedule, When no one wanted to vote for dissolving the pool or staying with the present operation, it was decided that Grass Valley Superintendent Vernon Bond, Nevada City Superintendent Edward Browning and Gelatt would meet to see just what it would cost to continue the present system, and no place to put them because the district's lease agreement has not been honored, She said it was her opinion that the board should hire a private legal counsel to represent the district forthe sake of the.children and the taxpayers. She moved that Grass Valley attorney Harold Wolters be named as the first choice for the job and the motion was given unanimous approval, Sacramento Symphony Thrills Twin City Concert Goers By Don Hoagland Local music lovers were given a rare treat Sunday when the Sacramento Symphony Orchestra performed in Grass Valley in the fourth concert of the Twin Cities Concert Association's current season, The orchestra, under the direction of Harry Newstone, showed boththe influence of its director and the technical skill of the individual members, The orchestra was composed of 41 members of the Sacramento Symphony of 81 players and the concert Sunday in the Grass Valley Veterans Memorial building was the first performance of the group in Nevada County. If the reception the orchestra received is any indication, Sunday will probably mark the start of several concerts of the orches~tra here, Conductor Newstone was called back several times at the conclusion of the first half of the program and at the end was called back four times by the standing audience, The orchestra made few technical faults. The only weakness and this was slight, was shown when individual sections were playing alone, N 9961 ‘7z Areniqoj*°*31d33nN Aiun0D epeaen’**
