TAYLOR Executive Secretary Agricultural Council of California Some sage philosopher of things political once remarked that governmental reforms are often more dangerous than the evils they seek to correct! Quite probably, the philosopher was billous, or at least unduly cynical, at the time of his epigrammatic outburst, but the fact remains that his statement is all too true in many instances. The present agitation for a One-House Legislature in California—the so-called unicameral system—is a striking case in point. Undoubtedly well-intentioned and honestly proposed, the unicameral plan is nonetheless ten times more dangerous to the welfare of California government and California citizens than any of the governmental evils which it seeks to eliminate. To rural and agricultural California, in particular, it would mean absolute surrender to the domination of the cities in all state legislation. And such a surrender, in the final analysis, would be as disastrous to city residents as to the farmer. Rural California's voice in the present legislative set-up is the result of a determined campaign some years ago by the California Farm Bureau Federation, the Agricultural Council of California, the California Farmers' Union, and other farm groups, culminating in the enactment of the so-called "federal plan" of legislative representation. Under the "federal plan," with the cities. Although far from perfect, the present set-up has at least required a policy of "live and let live" which has prevented flagrant discrimination against any group or area. The so-called unicameral legislative system may be adaptable to some states, where city-rural lines are not sharply drawn. In Nebraska, for example—the only State which has adopted the plan—rural areas would dominate any legislative set-up, whether based on territory or population. But in California, the situation is radically different. Population is the sole basis of representation under the One-House Plan. And in California, three metropolitan counties—Los Angeles, San Francisco and Alameda—represent a population of 3,317,000, or nearly 500,000 more than one-half of the State total. In other words, as Senator Charles H. Deuel of Chico, one of the state's ablest rural legislators, already has pointed out, the One-House Legislature would be A CITY LEGISLATURE, with the country districts tagging along as the tail to the kite. There can be no escape from that conclusion. An urban-dominated Legislature might mean gross tax discrimination; it might mean that the bulk of the tax burden would be passed back to the country districts, either by an ad valorem tax, or some other measure which would fall most heavily on the man least able to pay; it might mean control.

The liquor Rural California's voice in the present legislative set-up is the result of a determined campaign some years ago by the California 'arm Bureau Federation, the Agricultural Council of California, the California Farmers' Union, and other farm groups, culminating in the enactment of the so-called "federal plan" of legislative representation. Under the "federal plan," the Assembly districts are apportioned solely on a population basis, with the result that Los Angeles, San Francisco and Alameda counties control 46 of the 80 Assembly votes, with the remaining 34 votes scattered among the other 55 counties. Senate districts, under the present plan, however, are apportioned on a basis of both population and territory, with the members from rural areas in the majority. The net result is a "balance of power" between the two houses—one urban controlled and the other predominantly rural—which has compelled the cities to recognize the rights of the country districts, and the farm areas to deal fairly THE MAIN STEM When a silver country buys goods and wares from a gold country they pay for the same with silver, and in the down under sector, it is reported the big international money men cut a melon.

Broadway Santa Ana Phone 373 A SMALL DEPOSIT WILL HOLD YOUR SELECTION WASHINTON SNAP-SHOTS By JAMES PRESTON The handwriters in Washington are busy scribbling political omens on the wall these days. In a few weeks the legislative halls will be filled with Senators and Representatives, convening for the second session of the 74th Congress. What will they do? What will they be asked to do? Will it bring an end to the White House domination, a trend which was noticeable toward the close of the last session? One of the answers probably will be found as the case history unfolds on a letter sent by the House Expenditures Committee to all executive departments—a letter which has led to the discovery that a resolution pledging economy in government was adopted secretly before adjournment of the last Congress. The letter to department heads asked for definite suggestions for cutting expenses and promoting efficiency in the tangle of agencies that has grown up around Washington at such high cost. For a Congressional Committee so heavily laden with members of the majority party to go over the President's head is almost unprecedented. Coupled with statements of Chairman Buchanan of the House Appropriations Committee (another Democrat) that the end of billion dollar blank checks had come, the letter apparently had but one meaning. Members of Congress have heard from home. It is perhaps one of 1913 level was used as 100, and the index stood at 127. Now the Department has decided to shift the normal level to the 1923-25 average. The change was suggested by the American Statistical Society, and the industrial production level is figured with 1925 as average. But the catch is that the index of farm purchasing power is 1909-14. In those years farm products occupied a somewhat more favorable position than in 1923-25. So by using pre-war figures in one case, and post-war in the other, everyone is satisfied—if they believe in figures. The New York Times, however, Christmas Special to Husbands.

Coupled with statements of Chairman Buchanan of the House Appropriations Committee (another Democrat) that the end of billion dollar blank checks had come, the letter apparently had but one meaning. Members of Congress have heard from home. It is perhaps one of the best indications that the country has definitely turned against loose spending and impending higher taxes upon every person who works. One of the National Press Club wags points out in connection with the appointment of George L. Berry as coordinator of industrial cooperation, that the Supreme Court killed NRA, and now Mr. Roosevelt has decided to Berry it. One of the most glittering achievements of Washington recently has been the development of a statistical method by which it can be proved that the farmer is getting above par for his products, but the consumer at the same time is paying below par for food. The Department of Labor merely waved a magic wand, and presto—the retail price of food, which had previously been above normal—with loud cries from housewives—suddenly fell below. In figuring normal retail prices, the A TELEPHONE for a Christmas present! Can anything else do as much as the telephone for the different members of your family?
