Engine Licensing Measure Opposed
Assemblyman Thomas Kuchel Gives Views on Bill Now Pending
BY ASSEMBLYMAN THOMAS H. KUCHEL
In no one legislative proposal is the trend toward governmental regulation and control of private enterprise more apparent than in the companion Assembly and Senate bills which seek to prohibit persons from operating small steam or gas engines unless they first pass a State examination and obtain a State license.
In Orange County, for example, where the average farmer has a small engine to run his pumping plant, the law would compel him to obtain a license, or hire a licensed person to operate it for him.
Such legislation would add an additional needless and oppressive load to the already over-burdened California farmer. At a time when the harvesting and marketing of crops are fraught with widespread difficulty, it is monstrous to advocate his hamstringing in an even greater degree.
Yet two legislative bills, one in each house, have been introduced to accomplish just that; and, it goes without saying, they will receive, in the beginning, the support of those self-styled liberal members of the Legislature who froth at the mouth in their anxiety to reduce all our people to the Sixty farm leaders, representing a cross-section of the agricultural interest of Orange county, participated in the third agricultural economic conference held last Friday at Santa Ana. Farm problems of the county were analyzed by the group and recommendations made looking to the improvement of farm practices and income and other functions closely related to agriculture.
Factual data on outlook, farm credit, flood and erosion control, water simply, land use and crop adaptability, and marketing were reviewed by four sub-committees of the conference, which were water, marketing, land use, and farm labor. The findings of these committees were considered by the conference as the whole, which required unanimous approval for adoption as recommendation.
Among the more important recommendations offered by the conference were:
Marketing
Closer cooperation between all citrus marketing groups, elimination of all frosted fruit from market channels, use water transportation to counteract present high rail costs, uniform accounting by cooperative packing houses, amend the California-Arizona Citrus Marketing agreement to provide current elimination of the least desirable sizes and grades, plant less beans this year, commend federal farm credit agencies,
Station to investigate factors affecting sizes and grades of orange es in older orchards, urge more extensive windbreak planting where wind affects size and grade of fruit, ask farmers to make fertilizer tests on their own properties to note effect on crop yield request, agricultural extension service to make land use and soil classification survey of Orange county to assist in more economical planning and planting of crop production, urge consideration of per-county control districts and eradication areas, oppose sugar act of 1937.
Farm Labor
Growers should study economic factors affecting farm prices and income, size of farm should be considered in relation to satisfactory farm income, California state employment service should be more generally used as a means of reducing unemployment compensation payments, local American citizens should be given preference in agricultural labor.
The conference was composed of farmer representatives, of various marketing groups, water and conservation groups, the farm credit agencies, the Farm Bureau Grange and planning commission. The committee chairmen were John Murdy, water and irrigation; J. W. Crill, farm credits and marketing; E. T. McFadden, land use; R. W. Hull, farm labor; and Harold E. Wahlberg, conference.
the harvesting and marketing of crops are fraught with widespread difficulty, it is monstrous to advocate his hamstringing in an even greater degree.
Yet two legislative bills, one in each house, have been introduced to accomplish just that; and, it goes without saying, they will receive, in the beginning, the support of those self-styled liberal members of the Legislature who froth at the mouth in their anxiety to reduce all our people to the level of Punch and Judy in their governmentally operated puppet show.
Of course, I shall do everything in my power to defeat these bills. But the constitutional provision that a bill receive a majority vote in each house before it becomes a law, works also in reverse. A bill, to be defeated, must have a majority of each house unwilling or unable to favor it. And to insure the failure of these measures, the people themselves must protest to their representative the downright silliness of what these measures propose.
I frankly feel that the State Senate, regardless of party affiliation, is composed, in the main, of able representatives whose combined voting strength far outstrips the handful of starry-eyed socialist dreamers whose thoughts come mainly under the heading of night-mares. Bills such as those in question will not pass the State Senate this year, in my opinion.
The situation in the Assembly is somewhat altered. The bills conceivably could receive a majority vote in that house. But I think if our people protest these bills directing to their representatives in the Legislature, the bills can be defeated in such a fashion that they will not arise to plague us in the future.
Marketing
Closer cooperation between all citrus marketing groups, elimination of all frosted fruit from market channels, use water transportation to counteract present high rail costs, uniform accounting by cooperative packing houses, amend the California-Arizona Citrus Marketing agreement to provide current elimination of the least desirable sizes and grades, plant less beans this year, commend federal farm credit agencies, delay crop reports until after hazard period is over, urge more accurate crop estimates for prorate purposes.
Water
Recognize need for additional water supplies in Orange county, further studies needed on MWD supply, Prado dam should be governed by Orange county water district instead of federal control, continued emphasis on better irrigation practice by agricultural extension service, consolidation of pumping plants where possible to reduce costs, commend board of supervisors for requiring span type bridges over flood menace streams, provide uniform levee construction on Santa Ana river.
Land Use
Recommend more general use of soil conservation practices, ask extension service and experiment.
ALL ABOARD FOR THE WORLD'S FAIR!
ON SAN FRANCISCO BAY
Discovery always holds a thrill—a thrill for the discoverer and those who profit by the new idea. And so it is exciting to learn of a new-fashioned way to serve those old-fashioned favorites, lamb chops.
Purchase quality chops and have them Frenched (meat removed from the end of the bone). Season them. Over each bone slip a slice of pineapple and push two medium sized mushrooms on the end of the bone. Place the chops on the rack of the broiler pan and roil, turning once. Serve garnished with sprigs of mint and mint jelly.
Isn't this a handy idea to tuck into your recipe file? You can use it for any quick luncheon or dinner. Lamb chops are ready at a moment's notice to be broiled to savory, golden brown tenderness, and have won a name for themselves as last-minute dishes. They are especially favorites of women who have electric ranges, for broiling in an electric oven is easy and pleasant. The old bugbears that used to attend broiling are banished in a modern electric range, and users of electric cookery broil meat more frequently than preparing it by any other method. Everyone knows that foods are more healthful when they are broiled, and more delicious. Easy pleasant broiling is just one of the reasons why so many women are waxing enthusiastic over the new electric ranges.
