Dean Thompson . ~Manager Second class postage paid at Nevada City, Calif. Adjudicated a legal newspaper of general circulation by the Nevada County Superior Court, June 3, 1960 Decree No. 12,406 : Subscription Rates: One year, $3.00; Two years, $5.00 Three years, $7.00. Printed by Berliner & Mc Ginnis, Nevada City. EDITORIAL Nuclear Testing.. The Russian Move Khrushchev's announced intention to shoot off some super nuclear bombs, in effect breaking the long moratorium on nuclear testing, brings several thoughts to mind: 1. A nuclear test ban agreement could have beena small but reassuring first step toward disarmament. Reassuring for RusNow Khrushsia, the U.S., all peoples. chev has unreasonably flown off higher thana kite, beset--as Sen. Humphrey puts it--by a severe case of international jitters. 2. President Kennedy's restraint in holding offa resumption of testing by the U.S. has paidoff. This shouldbe agood lesson tothe hotheads in Congress and elsewhere, who have been shrilly calling for U.S. testing for the past several months. ly on Russia. 3. By threatening to display her giant bomb, Russia is obviously trying to scare the U.S., the Western allies, and the smaller nations into settling international disputes, including Berlin, en Russia's terms. It may be that some will be frightened and silenced. Most will not be, for most recognize the obvious propaganda nature ofthe Russian move: strategically, there is no need for a super, 100-megaton bomb. Twenty-megaton bombs, such as Russia and the U.S. both possess, are adequate to destroy any enemy and half the world in the bargain. 4. Russia's disregard and contempt for “world opinion" has been shown before, notably in the-Hungarian revolt. It is: nothing new. However Khrushchey's datest pronouncement, made just before the opéning ofthe conference of neutral nations in Yugoslavia, hasa paranoid quality reminiscent of Hitler. And therein lies the danger. We cannot be sure than Russia's boundless, pitiful sense of inferiority will not cause her to start a fight, like the undersized little boy who has to show the neighborhood how tough he is. 5. There is no need for America to join in the Russian game of bluff and bluster. We should test atomic weapons if, militarily, we really have a reason to do so. We shouldnottest if we are doing so only to match Russia's little-boy attitude. Furthermore, we should calmly put into operation President Kennedy's plan fora federal Disarmament Agency (which has received the endorsement of President Eisenhower, Ambassador Lodge, and many others in both parties), Only by backing our proclaimed peaceful intentions with thorough, practical disarmament proposals such as this agency could help provide, can we be effective in turning the world away from its nuclear collision course 6. Russia may have suffered a progaganda loss asaresult of its nuclear testing decision, but Russia has not lost much else during the past week. The cold war goes on. The Russian-American competition for the economic allegiance of the undeveloped countries continues. A starving man in Chile or Brazil cares little and knows less about who is testing bombs, He is looking for food and work and an improvement in his family's sad condition. Communism's appealtosucha man is still strong. We cannot be diverted for a moment from our concern for his plight. BUY UNIT LOTS & SAVE¥%x DE. MATSON . FOREST PRODUCTS .

berries, wild plums, gooseberries, good neighbors you'll find them all in Sierra City. Sierra City is the last of California's front porch towns, Along its main street, homes and business establishments are side by side.

They know that only in Sierra City will identities become lost and within minutes they are just natives, with everybody on a first name basis, They can camp, fish andhunt, whoop it up on Saturday night, and gotothe church of their choice on Sunday morning.
