Advertising Rates on Request THE FOURTH THAT LIVES If the Fourth of July has day of band concerts and lemonade, and firecrackers in the hot summer sun, it remains as the memorial of a day when men with deep concern for their own, and others’, right to self-government kindled a flame that has never died—even though the torrents of oppréssion and greed have seemed at times about to overwhelm it. That flame of freedom has, indeed, cast its light far. Yet there remain dark corners in the world—too many dark corners—where the light has been shut out. So long, however, as men they were, indeed, created equal, and were endowed by their. Creator with the unalienable rights of pursuit of happiness, so long world. kind, there to create the world in which men live in peace, and in which goveriiment truly derives its just powers from the consent of the governed. This is the promise of the So long will they live—eventually, with God’s help, to rise out of the heart and into the mind and soul of all manchanged from the halcyon holican believe in their heart that I life; liberty and the will those rights live in the that was meant to be—a world Fourth that still lives. Governor's Report (Continued rrom Page 1) Cutting aeross virtually every segment of the economy,the revenue program was characterized by the Governor as “fair and equitable to all.” It will raise -about $186 million in new revenue in the next fiscal year. “No one likes taxes,” Governor Brown said. “But if California is to continue to grow and prosper it must face up to the demands that growth presents. The Legislature is to be congratulated for the courageous manner in which it met this problem.” The revenue program calls for mew or increased taxes on perincome, cigarettes, beer, horse racing, banks and corporations and inheritances. Income taxes for a family of four ‘earning less than $10,000 a year actually will decline slightly under the program approved by the Legislature, while taxes on middle and high incomes will rise. The cigarette tax will amount to 3 cents a pack, the beer tax proved by the Legislature, and Governor Brown said the change will mean a “return to. party responsibility in our primary elections.” In the field of public health and safety, the Legislature approved proposals by Governor Brown requiring the establishment of safe standards for auto exhaust emissions and air. Both were designed to assist in the eventual control of smog. A bill changing the present prima facie 55-mile-an-hour speed limit to a flat 65, designed to reduce traffic accidents, also was approved, as was the Governor's proposal to establish a pilot unit for the treatment and control of narcotics addiction. Only five of the Governor’s major legislative proposals went down to defeat in the five and a half months of the session. They included a bill to set a state minimum wage of $1.25 an hour (90 cents for farm workers) ,one to establish a_system whereby workers could vote to detefmine whether or not they wanted to be represented by a union, and a system to settle to 2 cents a gallon. Also approved by the Legislature in its final hours were measures to increase unemployment insurance from a maximum of $40 to $55 a week, workmen’s compensation from a maximum of $50 to $65 a week, and disability insurance’ from a maximum of $50 to $65 a week. A bill to abolish the state’s system of cross-filing was apJEWELRY Our Gold Nugget Quartz J ewelry Makes lasting gifts and appropriate souvenirs of the Gold Country. @ DIAMONDS @ WATCHES @ SILVERWARE @ CLOCKS @ And many other Gifts.

Governor Brown, noting that all of his other tax bills had been approved by the *Leégislature, criticized the oil industry for being unwilling to bear its fair share of the tex burden. He also blamed Republicans in the Legislature for defeat. of. his fair labor standards bill,-.which set up democratic procedures for unions and required certain financial reports by both unions and management. ot “I wonder what Senator’ Knowland and the other Republicans who campaigned last year for ‘union democracy’ think of their party colleagues now,” Governor Brown said. He accused the Republicans of voting against the bill in order to follow Vice President Nixon’s dictum that “labor reform” should be the principal issue in the 1960 election. “I know, perhaps better than you,” Governor Brown told the closing session of the Assembly, “how fortunate I have been to enter state government in partnership with the finest and most productive Legislature in the history of California.” He noted that in addition to the major items he had proposed the Legislature-also approved bills judging the record number of garden exhibits. clerks ti in organizing and setting up the numerous. exhibits.
