Under the law, first call on the states revenues from racing is hail fay the state fair, Pomona fair, Los Angeles sixth district Agricultural Association, the horse racing board, finance department supervising agency, county and district fairs. These agencies, finance department officials said, will suffer no loss of revenue, at least until after next July 1. The remainder of the avocations, however, may be affected by the (taring of the larger tracks, such as Santa Anita and Bay Meadows, it was arid, unless war emergency bans on racing are lifted- the University of California would lose California Polytechnic and locril fairs $637,000 for construction purposes.

State revenues from hone racing during 1940 totaled and will reach $4,016,000 this year, it was estimated. bus and an increase of 6.4 per. cent, the association found. Greatest gains-in population, on a percentage basis, were found in San Luis Obispo county, where the population 1 -creased an estimated 44.4 per cent; Solano county, up 42.5 per cent; San Diego, up 27.9 per cent; Napa county, up 25.2 per cent; Monterey, up 23 per cent; and Contra Costa county, up 20.5 per cent Other counties which show increases in population greater than the state avenge of 6.4 per cent are Inyo, 16.7 per cent; Alpine. 14.6 per cent: San Mateo, 13.6 per cent; Shasta, 21.8 per cnet; Plumas, 11.7 per cent; Sacramento 7.4 per cent; Madera, 7.2 per cent: Marin, 7 per cent; and Modoc, 6.7 per cent.

Small increases in population seemed apparent in fourteen of the counties, the association found. Such decreases, it appeared, were the result of intrastate migration between counties, rather than migration to other parts of the country. Printing out that popuktion is one of the measures of the need for government services, the association warned: "While the population of California has Increased more than 6 per cent since the census was taken and while In some of the counties vastly greater Increases have occurred, careful consideration should be given to every proposal to government services to meet war-time boons in population which, when war Industries close down, will probably migrate to other communities and other industries. Drug Stores Are to Be First, Aid Stations To make every drug store in California a first-aid station is the plan of a Joint committee of the State Board of Pharmacy and the American Pharmaceutical Association, as the result of a meeting held recently at the Los Angeles Ambassador hotel, with Abe Ranklin, president of the Ambassador Drug Company, as general Chairman, representing the California State Board of Pharmacy and with Haro 8. Runsvold of Claremont, California, secretary of the American Pharmaceutical Association, California branch, spokesman for that group.

More than 100 of the drug gists present volunteered to take a first-aid course, and to save as instructors later to groups of approximately 25 seeking first aid knowledge, according to Alvah G. Hall, bead at the College of Pharmacy at the University of Southern California. After January 1. 1942, inspections will be made of all first rid (bug store emergency kits, and pharmacists who have complied with the requirements will be privileged to display the Had Cross embleam on their store windows.

County Population Now Total 72,000 Population of Santa Barbara county on New Year's Day will! be 72,000 preliminary estimates of the population of California counties, Just completed by California Taxpayers association show. This is an Increase of 1,448 persons in the county since the 1940 census was taken and amounts to a 2.1 per cent increase in the population of the county in the twenty -one months since the census was taken. Population of the state of California at January 1, 1942, is estimated to be 7,350,000 persons, up 442,613 since the 1940 cen- Some Good May Come Out Of War Coattated from PM Ona where freedom of speech (on the picket line) came in conflict with another great freedom the right to work made this challenging comment: I cannot believe that the right to freedom of.

speech is so absolute, unlmilted, and overruling that persons, and associations acting in concert, may not be legally restrained from employing it as an effective instrument to destroy the right of freedom to work. It would seem, When two civil liberties come into direct and irreconcilable conflict, and one of them is mre fundamental than the other that the more fundamental Should prevail That the right of freedom of work is more fundamental than the right of free-of speech is axiomatic. The generality of mankind has, in all ages, been compelled to work in order to live and engage in the pursuit of happiness. The right is, obviously, the most (fundamental of human rights because it is on ly by Its exercise that life itself can be maintained. a spirit of tolerance and as a contribution toward better understanding, we com mend that statement to the consideration of labor leaders who have sought to enforce the closed shop on agriculture, business and industry.

The other mans right to work his greatest freedom 4s violated by the closed shop program. And in this critical period, it might be well for the union boss to reconsider and ponder it from that viewpoint No one would think of denying union labor the right to work. Why Should rum-union labor be denied the right to work? The men from the CIO and the AFL the men who belong to neither; the men who farm and the men who work in offices are all Americans, all willing to fight tor their country.

We begin a New Year under dire circumstances.

Our Nation has Been Stabbed in the backby a treacherous foe But we are equal to the task that lies before us and we ask our many friends and Patrons to join us in making possible A Happy New Year Interim Committee To Make Full Report Contiauad from Pan Ona as efficiency expert for the legislature. Many legislators, Including the Anti-Olson contingent, wanted Independent figures on state operations Jn addition to those furnished by the administration-controlled department of finance. Perhaps the fact 1942 Is an election year hastened the plan to hire an auditor, but Vandegrif was a i nted, nevertheless, and has been making unobtrusive investigations for several months. During and since the recent special session, however, Vande-grift and his staff have been in high gear, particularly as concerns the California state guard. He has compiled a comprehensive digest of guard activities to date, indicating the administration will have hard sledding in the attempt to secure a large appropriatioi from the legislature.

Vandegrift declares the legislature faces four main defense problems when it returns, somewhat as follows: 1. The state guard: how large should it be. what should it do. what federal request have been made, what local requests, does private enterprise need it or want It? 2. The states emergency fund: what departments need help, which of four consolidated fire plans is best, which of four departments should handle possible evacuation, what fire fighting equipment is needed and other defense materials that cannot be met by existing budgets.

3. Subventions to local governments: what wil7 the federal government do, the military, the civilian groups, should state rid to local governments be paid back, etc. 4. State Council of Defense: what its exact status, how much more staff in needed, see if Job at hand has been done or can be done. Feeling that these answers could not be determined hurriedly.

the Anti-Olson group forced through a recess. Then is no assurance that politics can be forgotten and probably wont, but at least the legislature will be well-armed with facts when Vandegrift turns over his sheaf of findings. Rom this small beginning, it would not be inconceivable that the legislative might try to set up the state manager form of government, such as proves successful for many large cities and counties. This may be true if Governor Olson is reelected governor (and the advent of war has certainly enchanced his chances.) Returning in 1943. and if the Anti -Olson group still rides the saddle, the legis lature might be in the frame of mind to try and divorc the routine business of the state from the political setup.

Should that happen, you can peg Mr. Vandegrift as the No. 1 candidate for the Job and hed be a good one. Discontinue Two Southern Pacific Trains To permit overhauling and refurbishing. Southern Pacifics Noon Daylights will be temporarily discontinued in nig January 5, it was announced by George B.

Withdrawls to be Al-. lowed Within Thirty Days Sacramento (U.R) Members of the California state guard, under terms of a bill passed by the special session of the legislature wit be able to withdraw from the service within the next 30 days after giving five days notice in writing. The bill becomes effective immediately if signed by Oov.

Cul-bert Olson. The bill, by Assemblyman Richard McCollister, Mill Valley, permits members who might be called to active duty to resign on grounds of unreasonable hardship for any of six causes, Including dependents, business or financial loss, physical inability, and employment as national, defense worker. Members must give five days' notice within 30 days if they intend to resign. Those not giving notice within this period would be considered not eligible for withdrawal until their one year term on enlistment is passed. I McCollister said his bill was intended to stabilize the guard's ranks, eliminate those who could not conscientiously give full time service if required, and make It possible to immediately recruit replacements as needed.

The bill empowered Company commanders to recommend discharge of members whan the commander thinks are of greater value in dvi occupation. Civilians Urged To Use Due Caution Cooperation of the public in maintaining the security of the United States was requested today by Rear Admiral Ralston Holmes, U. 8. Commandant of the Eleventh Naval District, as he outlined necessary precautions which must be taken by all ctizens. In this war." the Commandant declared, "the civilian should remember that it is his fight Just as it is the fight of soldiers, bluejackets and Maxines in the front lines.

The defense of country is up to each of us. Carelessness in speech is particularly dangerous, whether it is In public, in telephone conversations or over the radio, for it may give information to the ever-aVrt agents of the enemy. Seemingly minor bits of gossip could lead to such damage as the sinking of a transport or the bombing of an Industrial plant." Admiral Holmes, in urging all residents of this district to realize and to assume their part in the common battle, pointed out the following precautionary measures to be adopted: 1. Dont discuss mvements or concentrations of our Navy or merchant ships. 2.

Dont discuss new military techniques or weapons. 3. Don't discuss defense plant production capacities. 4. Dont discuss movements or concentrations of personnel of military and naval forces.

5. Dont discuss Naval shore construction projects. 8. Dont discuss reports of damage to ships. Navy property, or Navy material until it has been officially announced by the Navy.

7. Don't discuss casualties of the Navy or Marine Corps unless officially announced by the Navy or Marine Corps. "There is a Federal Espionage Act which carries a maximum penalty of 20 years imprisonment for communicating either direct or indirectly Information relating to the national defense, tne Commandant added. Before You speak, consider whether the enemy could translate the information you are about to relate into a torpedo attack on one of our ship or a bombing of a defense plant. If -he could, dont divulge the information." Assessed Value Property Upped Safeway Stores H.
