Halliburton, sailing the junk to the Golden Gate International exposition, set out from Honolrono last week, LINCOLN IDEALS SAID GREATEST NEED OF TODAY Revival of Humility Declared Necessary to Americanism In Talk by Mussatti (Continued from Page Eleven) United States. No President ever sat in the White House who ever greater problems and turbulent conditions confronting those him than Lincoln did from 1861 to 1865. "Through it all there was noble character in the White House- humble." PREVAILING FAITH Mr. Mussatti read the letter which Lincoln wrote to Horace Greeley in answer to an attack which, through latter a New made York against newspa- Linper.

Lincoln denied none of the attacks and waived all of the charges. "It took an extraordinary man to write an extraordinary letter in the face the most vicious criticism any President ever received," Mr. Mussatti said. "Abraham Lincoln never lost faith in just plain folks. He dedicated his whole life to the preservation of the Union, emphasizing freedom," said Mr.

Mussatti in outlining the feeling of suffering that Lincoln endured. SPEAKS TO STUDENTS at the University of Southern Former political science professor: fornia, Mr. Mussatti also addressed two assemblies at the San Bernardino high school yesterday spoke to the San Bernardino Rotary club. In talking to the Rotary club at noon, Mr. Mussatti said the Constitution of the United States, the oldest governmental document of its kind, has never been found wanting in a series of crises.

He cited the Virginia and Plymouth colonies of 1660 to show that the framers of the Constitution had experience in communism and dictatorships, although not known by those names at that time. The two colonies were communal in nature, he said, and were ruled with an iron hand. Dr. P. C.

Guyselman presided and Joseph P. Hertel introduced the speaker.

Grand Jury Finds Government of County Capable in Annual Report (Continued from Page Eleven) the county was found to have existed during 1938. "We wish to express our appreciation for the counsel and advice given Judge Leonard and DisAttorney Jerome B. Kavanaugh and his staff. Proper legal advice was of prime importance to this grand jury as there were problems presented to us at the very beginning of our tenure of office that required more or less constant contact with the competent legal advisors.

We also wish to thank the heads of the various departments who cooperated with us in our investigations. CAPABLE EXECUTIVES "While, in the opinion of this grand jury, there is always opportunity to improve on existing conditions in nearly any business or enterprise, we found that as a whole the various departments of our county government are being capably administered. Where it was found that it might be possible to improve on some of the details involving the various functions of the several departments, we found that a cooperative spirit existed on the part of the department heads and personnel. "This grand jury wishes to present our observations and recommendations concerning the various departments a any of the general county recommen- governdations which in our would be for the betterment of government and an aid to our sorely- pressed taxpayers. ASSESSOR'S OFFICE "Assessor--The question of collection of personal property tax in the of Redlands was discussed.

Redlands is the precinct in the county which collects its own taxes, Chino having changed over to the uniform county method during the past year. At the present time the assessor's office collects the personal property tax for Redlands at the time as the personal property for the county is collected. stake This necessitates the county cashing the check and returning the Redlands portion to that city or the assessor getting a separate check for each amount. Inasmuch as the county does not get anything for this service except office space in the Redlands city hall for the deputy assessor, it is the recommendation of the assessor in which your committee concurs that the personal property tax for the city of Redlands be collected by the city of Redlands the same as is done real estate tax. "Auditor -No recommendations.

"Constables--Records in some of offices are not kept as they should be. The auditor's office has set up record books and forms that ars furnished to each office and should be kept for the purpose of audit and future reference. Your committee recommends that the auditor's instructions should be followed in all constable's offices. "Courthouse and grounds -Your committee would recommend that the budget for maintenance of the old mission Asistencia be increased to $500 per annum. It is now $250 per annum and additions have been made to displays and cost of recommendations.

"Coroner and public administrator--No recommendations. "Superior courts and law library -We recommend that a cooling system should be installed in the courtrooms, which undoubtedly is very much needed. We understand that this matter has been taken up with the board of supervisors and they will act on same a as soon as convenient. "Horticultural commissioner -No recommendations. "District attorney--No recommendations.

"Hospital, health unit and Monte Vista home In looking over the operating costs, we find that the hospital patient day cost has steadily increased for the past five years. The cost per day in 1933-34 was $1.97, increasing to a cost of $2.39 for the year 1937-38. The work of caring for the sick in this county is a worthy cause, but in reviewing the services rendered the patients therein we find that in surgery, medicine and nursing the service is equal, if not better, than in institutions where charges are made for a like service. We feel that any increase in patient day cost is out of keeping with the taxpayer's ability to pay, and it is suggested to those responsible for these increased costs that every effort be made to guard against any in the future. "No doubt as the population of this country increases, the total budget for operating the county hospital will greatly increase and those paying the bills will have greater problems to meet.

We call attention at this time to the fact that incomes from citrus, farming and other forms of agriculture have been greatly reduced. We feel that any greater burden placed on the taxpayers for charity and relief work cannot be met with the lowered incomes. EUILDING OBSOLETE "We find the main building obsolete, but no recommendations are made for any replacements at this time. The operating rooms are in need of immediate repairs. We suggest that a lighting engineer be employed to make a study of the obsolete wiring and general repairs and replacements made to economically carry the present power load.

"In a general summary, this committee has found a growing demand by the public on every charitable organization and institution for better service in the dispensing of foods, medicines and the like and we realize that it is hard for those in charge of this work to curtail or limit their demands. However, GLASSES WILL BE CONDUCTED FOR OFFICERS State Will Maintain Training Course, Open to Police And Sheriff's Deputies (Continued from Page Eleven) Colton; Ernest C. Mehl, Upland; William H. Morrison, Redlands. The school will be open only to regularly employed peace officers and no charge will be made.

The instructors will be paid by the state and the training course held at the San Bernardino Valley junior college. 36 WEEKS' COURSE The school will be held one day a week and the lectures will be given in the afternoon and repeated the same night to another class. Mr. Brereton said the school will be held for 36 weeks each year and will be a permanent institution. The intensive training course will result in increased efficiency of the peace officers, he said.

The school was established upon recommendations of three state associations -the California Peace Officer's association, the California Sheriff's association and the California District Attorney's association. Instructors selected for the school will be given a week's training course in methods of teaching in order to qualify for their teaching credentials.

BEARE per Attorney for Petitioner. 808 West A Ontario, California, Dated Feb. 8, 1939. WASHINCTON Merry (Continued from Page Eleven) When the governor of South Carolina takes the oath of office he swears he will not duel or take part in a duel during his term of office. Thirty years ago when Senator Clyde Reed of Kansas was a young clerk Washington, he wanted to live in a certain apartment house but couldn't afford it.

Today he has the largest apartment in the building. New Building Program Under secret consideration in the inner circle is a new public works program to be tied up with the large-scale health plan recently outlined to Congress by the President. This building plan would call for an outlay of $1,500,000,000 or $2,000,000.000 for the construction of clinics and medical centers in small towns and rural areas. The money would be spent during a three to five year period. The need for such medical facilities is extensive.

The special committee on health and welfare, which formulated Roosevelt's health program, reported that the lack of clinics and hospitals throughout the country was one of the greatest menaces to the health of the nation. Such a building program is no new idea for White House advisers. Several years ago serious consideration was given a proposal that the WPA build clinics with men on work relief. The health program has revived this idea, and there is a strong possibility that it will be submitted to Congress this spring. An enthusiastic supporter of the plan is Attorney General Frank Murphy, who launched such a program in rural Michigan during his term as governor.

Others advocating it are Secretaries Ickes and Hopkins, who carry great weight in Roosevelt's coun- cils. Youthful Criminals Latest crime statistics of SuperSleuth J. Edgar Hoover show that CCC camps, plus boys' clubs and the Y.M.C.A have had an appreciable effect in eradicating youthful criminals. Seven years ago, the most dangerous crime age was 17. That is, more crimes were committed youngsters of that age than by older men.

Three years ago the greatest. criminal age had moved up to 19. Today, however, the most dangerous criminal age is 21. In other words, youngsters gradually are being educated away from crime. (Copyright 1939, by United Feature Syndicate Inc.) Bobbitt are directing.

GRANT HOLCOMB, Attorney for said Administratrix. Dated Jan. 24, 1939. NOTICE NOTICE of sale of property by State pursuant to Section 3897 of the Political Code. Office the Tax Collector of the County of San Bernardino, State of California.

Whereas, on the 3rd day of February, 1939, there was issued a written authorization under the hand and seal of the Controller of the State of California; which said authorization was received by me and filed in my office and was and is in words and figures as follows, to-wit: Authorization by the State Controller for the sale of tax deeded property at public auction in accordance with the provisions of Section 3897, Political Code. NOTICE CONTROLLER'S DEPARTMENT) STATE OF CALIFORNIA To the Tax Collector of the County of San Bernardino, State of California: WHEREAS, a deed or deeds conveying to the people of the State of California the title to the property hereinafter described having heretofore been filed in the Controller's office of the State of California: AND, WHEREAS, said deed or deeds recite the fact that said property hereinafter described was sold to the people of the State of California for the nonpayment of State and county taxes; AND, WHEREAS. five years have elapsed since the date of said sale, and no redemption, according to law. has been made of said property, or any part thereof; NOW, THEREFORE, in pursuance of the law in such case made and provided. Harry B.

Riley, Controller of the State of California, by virtue of the authority in me vested by the laws of this State, do by these presents authorize, empower, and direct you, the said Tax Collector, to sell at public auction, in separate lots or parcels, the property hereinafter described and upon war provided. The ty above referred to, and CLUB REVIEWS DEFENSE PLANS this rise in cost cannot continue) and we feel if it is allowed to do so it is not far in the distance until those bearing the costs will be unable to pay the full amount of tax levies and it will be a grave question as to whether or not they are able to support themselves, let alone others, high standard that "Justice is find that the present system of requiring the justices to remit all moneys county treasurer as fast as collected or deposited with them makes for an extra amount of detail work on the part of the justice and county and frequently entails extra effort time on the part of those to whom the money is ultimately disbursed. "After the committee has carefully canvassed the justice courts of our county and compared with those of other counties nearby, we are constrained to make the following recommendations: 1. That some effort be put forth by the county authorities to provide suitable spaces for courtrooms for justices where there is no other space of desirable type available. 2.

That the justice courts be equipped with suitable equipment for the filing and protection of valuable records. 3. That inasmuch as the justices are under bond, that the smaller courts outside of San city be required to remit funds Bernardino monthly or at least not until such a time as they have sufficient funds on hand to warrant remitting. "Library--No recommendations. "Probation office We do recommend that an effort be made immediately to take care of boys of 16 and over in a juvenile forestry camp.

We urge the acceptance of San Diego county's offer to take a limited number of our boys in their camp. Since four months in such a is the average time for rehabilitation, its cost, $50 per month, would be less than the year required in a state school at $20 per month. And at the end the result would be infinitely better. We recommend that certain failure to provide cases be assigned work in county road camps and their wages be given their families for support. "Recorder -No recommendations.

"Superintendent of schools--Two matters have been our attention. Auditors have repeatedly suggested that there should be an audit of the funds of school cafeterias. And it does appear that there exists some lack of uniformity in the operation of school cafeterias, but in the absence of specific complaint we are not authorized to order such an audit. We do wish to remind local school district authorities that they are responsible for conducting all cafeterias in strict accordance with the provisions of the school code. "The matter has.

to do with the proposed budgets of school districts which are filed each year with the county superintendent for his approval. When he has approved them he publishes the summaries thereof, together with the date and place of public hearing, as is required by the school code. It appears that, after public hearings, certain school district authorities have made substantial increases in their budgets. These increases should have been anticipated and included in the public summaries. We believe that such action is not conducive to the maintenance of a high degree of public confidence in local school authorities and should be avoided.

"Sealer of weights and measuresNo recommendations. "Sheriff, jail and prison campThe constables of the county are supposed to investigate crimes in their townships, but in most they have confined their work to civil matters and some have not given the sheriff any cooperation. We believe that much better results would be obtained if the office of constable was appointive instead of elective and the constables worked under were responsible to the sheriff. "Supervisors and purchasing agent -No recommendations. "Surveyor and highway commissioner -We wish to compliment the board of supervisors in having consolidated the offices 01.

surveyor and highway commissioner, and we feel that they are efficiently and honestly administered. "Tax collector-No recommendations. recommendations. "Veterans bureau--At the present time the office is using the services of a part-time stenographer in addition to the regular staff at a cost of $300 per year, and we wish to that these services be recommend, full time in order to increase the efficiency of the office. "Welfare department--No recommendations.

General recommendations: "In view of the generally depressed economic condition of our and the tremendous incountry, in the welfare and charity departments of our national, state and county governments and in considering also the greatly lessened earning power of agricultural units as well as of many of those in the so-called middle classes and in view of the trend upwards in taxes. "This grand jury views with disfavor and looks upon as being economically unsound the recent trend upwards of many of the salaries of the county employes. We believe that in harmony with general conditions prevailing that the general salary raise made on July 1, 1938, should not have been granted and that further increases should not be granted until conditions materially improve. GAMBLING CITED "That inasmuch as the redlight district conditions in the city of San Bernardino have become toriously bad and inasmuch as the grand jury has requested that redlight abatement proceedings be instituted. to would correct respectfully the situation, recommend that the incoming grand jury acquaint itself with the situation during the early part of their tenure of office and that the corrective measures instituted by this jury be followed up as found necessary.

"It has been called to the attention of this' grand jury that betting and various forms of gambling are being tolerated in our county, contrary to law. It has also been brought our attention that some of the liquor establishments and amusement resorts in various parts of our county are operating in such a manner as to be a constant source of rowdiness, drunken driving, disturbing the peace and general making for a condition that is entirely obnoxious to self respecting citizens. ASK FIRM ATTITUDE "It is the belief of this grand jury that the situation concerning both gambling and the abuses found in connection with the liquor dispensing establishments could be largely corrected by a determined attitude on the part of the various law enforcement agencies in the county uniting their forces in an attempt to stamp out lawlessness. This, might instances by necessitate the action board in of equalization. "We believe it would be of great value to have the incoming grand jury make a survey of the conditions mentioned with the idea in mind of correcting situation.

"Believing that the county taxpayers, in so far as possible, should become acquainted with county employes and to some extent, at least, be aware of their activities, and conforming to what we consider sound business practices as exemplified by, private and semi-private industry (including the utilities), the Federal Government, the state of California and other counties of this state, and in an effort to discourage the possible occasional private use of county owned passenger automobiles, this grand jury wishes to recommend that board of supervisors have the county insignia conspicuously placed on both sides of each county owned passenger car, with exception of those operated by the San Bernardino county sheriff's office. GASOLINE PURCHASES "In view of the fact that gasoline credit cards have been issued for the use of all county owned passenger automobiles and that this grand jury determined that, to some extent, gasoline was being purchased by county employes at service stations San Bernardino and adjacent points at a cost to the county greater than the cost of gasoline available at the county garage under the county contract, this grand jury recommends that the board of supervisors instruct the various county employes who are driving county cars to which gasoline credit cards have been issued, to use these credit cards only in an emergency and when gasoline is unavailable at the county garage. "Conforming to standard business practices under similar circumstances, this grand jury wishes to recommend that the store room and county garage institute and adopt a plan of condemning and discarding worn-out, damaged and obsolate parts of automotive equipment, accessories, and supplies by the storekeeper or shop foreman, before the new accessories, supplies or parts are issued. "The adoption of this plan would centralize the responsibility of passing on the need of new parts, accessories and supplies determine that in all cases parts, athe accessories and supplies are used for the purposes for which they were intended."
