. ‘. ‘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. Crosswo rd Puzzle ACROSS io 7a (ys 1. Test rating 6.Mailingfee {'* me AN 13. Custom 14. Baltimore team 15. Dwell 16. Flowers 17.

Some 20,000 others will wing to high haunts in the Alps. Providing new impetus is the Winter Olympi¢s at Squaw Walley, California: For the first time the breath-taking ‘exhibitions will be telecast. Another 35,000 spec. , tators daily will attend the 11day competitions. More than 800 skiers, jumpers, hockey players, racing and figure skaters from 35 nations will compete. The event which first sparked widespread American interest in skiing was the Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, N. Y., in 1932. Since then the number of skiers has showballed from a few thousand to between 3,500,000 and, 5,000,000, according to the varying estimates. 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 The burros of New Mexico, which can be see almost anywhere there, are reported by the National Automobile Club to have a very broad diet. They have been known to masticate broken glass, 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.” California produced 17 per cent newspapers, rags, and tobacco. of the Nation’s honey crop in 1958.

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. READ THE NUGGET LEGAL NOTICE .
