Franklin Roosevelt receives a decisive majority of the Democratic votes at the California primaries, Tuesday. He is clean, capable and trained, both as assistant secretary of the navy at Washington during the troublous war period and as governor of the Union's greatest state, in political executive ship.

Also he is endowed with a diplomatic ability that achieves results. No criticism is being made of former Governor Smith and Speaker Garner, the other candidates on the Democratic ticket. The fact, however, remains that Roosevelt is as well qualified as either of these and stands the best chance to win against President Hoover, whom the Republicans are certain to nominate. Governor Smith had his chance and failed and his recent utterances, notably at the Jefferson Day dinner, have not been such as to assure that he would promote harmony in the party.

His chief supporters in California are discredited Democratic politicians and, in some instances, they have mostly flocked with Republicans. Roosevelt is unsoiled, either by reason of speeches hurtling discord into the rank and file of the party or with accepting support from sources that are known to be both weak and insincere. If Roosevelt can secure a full California delegation, it will have ji tremendous influence toward allaying inti a party factional quarrels.

It will demonstrate the strength of the New York executive, not only in the Central West and the East but in the West and will go far to ill considered attacks of his Democratic opponents.

EFFECTIVE ECONOM With taxpayers again taking a huge interest in county and state affairs in an effort to reduce the tax burdens, we have come across one example of very eiieulive economy that is being practiced in Yolo county The state requires that Yolo county have an agricultural commissioner, and it stipulates what the duties of that office shall be But here in Volo county we have found the agricultural com rms. doner's oliice to have stepped out to take over that is closely akin to its own, yet is not re qui i by law to be a part of its program. has been that the taxpayers have been raven ergo sums of money over the last two years "Ii the merging of these various duties For one thing, the office has taken over the responsibility of arranging the Yolo county exhibit at the State Fair Fur two years that work has been done by the commissioner's force without the employment of extra help and with the expenditure of far less money than was customary in former years when the task was assigned to other agencies' that were forced to employ labor to help arrange the exhibit and to collect material for display That saving over the last two ydars has mounted well into the thousands of dollars. The last grand jury recommended inclusion of the work of the weights and measures in the routine work of the office Approximately $3000 was budgeted last year for the sealer of weights and measures This sum would be lopped off the budget for the coming year and the entire work of that department would be included in the work of the agricultural commissioner's fore without the addition of any member to the office or field force should the plan be adopted This merging of duties that are closely allied is one of the most effective types of economy that can be practiced. Another' ease of merging the duties of kindred positions was when the commissioner's office absorbed the work of the bee inspector and distributed it among the regular staff without the employment ol an extra man The law provides for a bee inspector and for another agricultural inspector, but these being religiously kept off the payroll in an effort to keep the operating costs of the department as low as possible There are other county offices that are doing similar things in their sincere effort to reduce the operating expenses of the county, but in this one instance wc find so many cases of effecting true economy in operation that it seems logical to call it to the attention of the taxpayers who are seriously considering ways and means of effecting further cuts in costs.

The work of this department in absorbing additional duties without the increase of force or operating costs provides an excellent example of what can be done in other departments It should be given serious consideration by the taxpayers when they are studying the government cost and tax situation in the county.

This increase is natural in that the supply of the last harvest is being constantly exhausted and the demand inevitably strengthens the market. If the Volstead law, which gives life to the Eighteenth amendment, were lifted the prices would rise immediately and the nev markets which would promptly open would maintain these prices. For example, if the sale of beer wore legalized, the market demand for barley, Yolo county's chief grain crop, necessarily would result in a heavy increase in prices. The law of supply and demand would see to that. It would stimulate malting and Yolo barley, it is conceded here and in England, is the choicest in the world for that purpose.

A high and constantly strong market would be open to the growers. The same with com and rye in the manufacture of hard liquor. Small wonder that the country is becoming thoroughly determined in its efforts to remove the handicap of alleged prohibition. Without viewing it from a standpoint of demoralizing the morals of the nation, creating a disrespect for all laws and incubating a class of vicious criminals unparalleled in all the history of the earth, the economic consequences of the amendment are most distressing. Virtually the same volume of hard liquor now is manufactured as would be manufactured were the Volstead act repealed, but it is fermented of stuff, assembled from tho contents of garbage cans in the alleys.

It is not liquor, it is poisonous grog. In addition, the removal of the enforcement act would attract a vast revenue in the way of licenses, thus lessening taxes, and it would provide employment, not merely for a few thousand but for tens of thousands of highly paid workmen. One doesn't have to enter into the horrible increased immorality and growing vicious criminality that are consequent and following in the wake of the prohibition amendment, as grounds for arguing its repeal. It is a block to a returned prosperity as well as being destructive of morals and respect for law and order, a breeder of crime, hypocrisy and cussedness. 0 0 0 Air Monopoly gettmg all lit up and noGlcnheim.

It recommends public control of radio as more urgent than of these other means of publicfty and entertainment, because "the danger of monopoly is much greater." We shall doubtless come to public direction of radio sooner or later, as most other civilized countries, have done. The wonder is that, with so few air channels to use for popular broadcasting, and a use on the whole so profitless, by normal and civilized standards, the American public has endiued its abuses so long.
