‘. ‘William E. Warne.
arne said the new cost. accounting system has made it possible to Pinpoint Fish and Game
program expenditures for the
first time.
“The enabling legislation. gave
cost accumulation a big boost,”
Warne said.
The report shows a breakdown
of costs for the first three months
~ July, August and September—
of the current fiscal year, _
“Since it covers only one quarter of the year, and work loads
fluctuate from program to program, according to the season of
the year, this particular report
cannot be used as the base for
judging the entire yeat, Warne
Said. He explained the.first fullyear report will be made after
the close of the current fiscal year
next June 30.
This report shows a first quarter expenditure of $2,275,260 in
10 major program breakdowns.
Wildlife Protection accounted
for $563,211. 24.8 per cent), the
biggest expenditure of state funds.
.The Game Management program took $575,412 25.3 per cent)
of the tétal, but this sum includes
'$216,391-in federal aid from Pitt-.
man-Robertson Act funds, derived from a tax on the sale of
sporting arms and ammunition.
Inland Fisheries expenditures
were $466,407 (20.5 per cent) and
Mineral Resources $260,218 (11.4
per cent). These include $56,338
in federal aid from Dingell-Johnwa arinouneea last week
. accounted for $29,450 (1.3 per
cent) of this and administration
through the six regional offices
accounted for $129,632 (5.7 per
cent).
The report isolates first-quarter costs of specific programs and
their relation to the total expenditures.
Tt shows, for example, the
catchable size trout program cost
was $348,764 in the first quarter.
This represents 15.3 per cent of
total department expenses in that.
period. The costs of the pheasant
rearing and planting program for
the same period was $78,786, or
3.5 per cent of the total budget.
Disease Kills Many
Rainbow Trout
A mystery disease killed more
than half of a group of 900,000
sub-catchable rainbow trout at
Darrah Springs Hatchery; in
Shasta County.
This was disclosed by the State
Department of Fish and Game in
announcing losses have returned
to near normal after the die-off.
The disease also claimed lesser
numbers of the fish in other
hatcheries in Northern California.
Biologists suspect contamination in a batch of food but said
tests failed to pinpoint the cause.
However, they said a change in
the diet for the fish reduced
losses.

State Aids 11 Fishing
Area Access Projects
\ Cnlifornia last year helped to
meet the increasing recreation
needs by completing 11 projects
to provide public access to inland
and coastal fishing areas,
In addition, Ramon J. Nesbitt,
coordinator of the State Wildlife
Conservation Board, sai construction’ was completed to provide
a fishing lake in Letts Valley in
Colusa County, and work nearly
was completed on a fishing lake
in Madera. County.
The work on the 18 projects is
being done at an estimated cost
of $867,219. The board recieves
$750,000 a year from horse racing pari mutuel funds.
In all, Nesbitt said,.43 projects
. either were completed during
1959; were under construction,
or were approved for planning.
Construction was started on several projects authorized in preSOME DIET

i E Director Wilhas called for “a bil)
of me tihds to assure development
of the state ig renewable
natural resource with consideration for the requirements of fish
land wildlife and recreatoin.
Warne proposed that new conbcepts be developed along the following lines:
1, No renewable resources
should be destroyed in development of or in controing another.
2. Each manipulation of a renewable resource should be made
to serve the maximum number of
human desires and needs.
3. Esthetic values should be
recognized in terms other than
those of economic value.
4. Fish and wildlife, including
recreation, is a beneficial use of
water, and should be so recognized: nationally.
5. The prevention of damage to
fish and wildlife resources resulting from other uses of water
should be compensated-or mitigated by those directly benefiting
from the project services.
6. Enhancement of one resource
or improvement of our use of a
resource,while developing or controlling another, should be made
a part of the basie plan for the
primary purpose of the development. :
7. Fish and wildlife belong to
all the people, thus their protection and propagation and the enhancement of their environment
is a responsibility of all the people.
“Legislation already on the
books sets the precedent for conversion of these concepts into specific laws,” Warne stated.
In restating his first concept
Warne explained that “fish should
not be destroyed in controlling
a stream. for irrigation. My 25
years of experience in the field
of water planning convinces me
that this rule is sound and is compatible with irrigation, power,
flood control, domestic water
supply, and other uses, as well
as fish and wildlife.”

WONDER WHAT
BEST WITH (T?
Despite the contrary viéws of
one of the greatest paths to learning. But keeping a steady supply
of up-to-date, useful or entertaining books available r all our
California residents t ugh our
public libraries is ting more
difficult every day the Senate interlm committee on education
was informed at a recent hearing.
The present system of public libraries is operated variously by
cities, counties, special library
districts, and high school districts,
and the state itself operates our
fine state library. But in recent
years practically every library has
‘been confronted by the very
grave problem of stretching a
modest budget to meet rapidly
expending public demands for
books, other visual materials, records and other sound materials.
The hearing resulted from the
introduction of a bill introduced
at our last session. In its original
form, it would have established a
system of state grants to local
libraries in return for meeting
certain prescribed standards for
number of reference books, number of books purchased annually,
and professional and clerical personnel. In its last amended form
the state grants were eliminated,
but the bill retained the provisions which would permit local
library jurisdictions to cooperate
or consolidate _to.meet the standards set ‘up. The bill was not
passed by the Senate.
Witnesses at the hearing were
practically unanimous as to the
need for improving public. libraries. The plight of those in
smaller communities was particularly stressed. They suffer
from meager reference collections, a lack of resources to buy
specialized or current books and
materials, and shortages of adequately trained personnel. But it
was also brought out that larger
libraries have these same ills.
The state aid proposal would
. financial
have involved between two and
three million dollars annually, as
introduced.. However, though
united on library needs for help
from some source, the witnesses
were anything but agreed as to
the advisability of state aid.
Most of those who questioned
it, including spokesmen for the
cities which operate most public
libraries, did so on the ground
.that it would tend to interfere
with local control of libraries.
State aid, it was contended, would
bring with it state apron strings,
an would eventually end local autonomy in library affairs. It was
also asserted that needed improvements could be worked out
on purely a local basis.
The possibility was raised that
smaller libraries might be —induced to consolidate without
assistance from the
state. In resporise, to that the committee -was informed that efforts
along that line had been tried
for six years but had not worked.
State funds are absolutely essential, it was declared.
Many of the mechanics of. co-:
operation or consolidation were
reviewed. Exchange of technical
or reference works between libraries, consolidation of borrowers’ card system, centralized cataloguing and cooperative handling
of periodicals, Sre_ examples.
While no definite conclusions
were develo at the meeting,
Jit was evidently the concensus
that some sort of additional finansome TV addicts: books are still
cial support must be developed
for our -public libraries.’ The
people of California simply cannot afford to lose or let diminish
the enormous values for the present and all future generations
which have already been created
in our libraries. The problem of
their future is undoubtedly another that will occupy the attention of our 1961 session.
1,000 Cars Already
Registered For
1960 Licenses Here
The local office of the State
Department of Motor Vehicles
had registered about 1,000 cars
for 1960 by Wednesday of this
week, according to Ray Hodge,
manager.
This is about normal for the.
time of year, reports Hodge, and
the office expects another 8,000 or
9,000 will come in during the
next three weeks before the
deadline on February 4.
Last year the office handled
about. 9,500 cars as welt as over
500 trucks.
Notices for renewal of licenses
for trucks and trailers were
mailed out in December so most
of these are already out of the
way. But the car renewal notices
are still beirfg sent out during
January.
” “Cotton Crop
California’s 1959 cotton crop,
estimated December 1, by _the
California Crop and Livestock Reporting Service at 1,920,000 bales
will set a new record for the
State. Last year 1,604,000 bales
were produced, while the previous high, set in 1952, was 1,818,
000 bales.
Excellent growing and harvesting conditions this year have resulted in a record yield of 1051
pounds per acre, compared to the
previous record of 1049 last year.
