KUCHEL Editors and Publishers Entered as second-class matter at the Post Office at Anaheim, California, under the Act of March 8, 1879. OVERRIDE THE OLSON VETO As was, of course, expected, Governor Olson this week vetoed the bill which would have reorganized relief in California and placed its administration in the several counties, rather than in the state government as at present. To turn the problem over to our 58 counties, says the Governor in his veto message, "would mean that the State of California admits its impotence." Let's turn back briefly to the legislative session of 1937. Then, it was Senator Olson instead of Governor Olson. In that session, a bill was introduced providing for county administration of relief. This was during a Republican State Administration. Senator Culbert Olson voted for that bill! By his vote, did California then admit its impotence? Or, in 1937 was local administration of relief good, and, in 1941, is it bad? The people of Orange county know a little something about administration of relief by the state. They can remember the horrible administration of relief in this county under the Governor's appointee, a Mr. Lawrence Platt. It was during Mr. Platt's tenure in office that the relief administration was found to be so feverishly engaged in Olson politics, so wasteful in its handling of state property. Perhaps the words of the Governor, in his veto message, are all the other way around. Indeed, California would admit its impotence if it were unable to find a way to handle relief better than the odious Olson SRA. It may well be that the present relief reorganization bill Junior Ebell Club Receives High Honor A merit award was presented to the Anaheim Junior Ebell club the federation at the junior convention for the greatest anthropic endeavor and cultural achievement, it was announced the meeting held Tuesday evening.

Group Picnics at Irvine Park Sundae The people of Orange county know a little something about administration of relief by the state.

Perhaps the words of the Governor, in his veto message, are all the other way around. Indeed, California would admit its impotence if it were unable to find a way to handle relief better than the odious Olson SRA. It may well be that the present relief reorganization bill is not perfect, and that, with the passing of months, needed changes would appear in its enforcement. The simple, elemental and fundamental question however is whether relief should be administered centrally or locally. Particularly in such a question as relief, the advantages of "home rule," and local administration, ought to be clear. They were clear to Governor Olson four years ago, even if he has now flip-flopped in his view. The reasons for his change of attitude ought not to be difficult to determine. With commendable courage the legislature has passed this present relief bill. Orange county's board of supervisors has approved it. So have the boards of almost every other county in the state. The Olson veto should be disregarded, and this bill ought to become law notwithstanding it. NOW!
