The Fight Against Good Food Just why any food—produced by the farmer or the dairy industry, or others, should be outlawed seems to be ridiculous. Suppose political groups should make a campaign against butter and try to outlaw it? No one seems to "take up arms" against butter. Your Washington correspondent rises to remind you that 30 years ago there was as much difference between good butter and bad butter as you could imagine—and yet the dairy industry raised the rank and quality of good butter—just as the margarine manufacturers have advanced the quality of good, excellent margarine. Thirty-two states have legalized the manufacture and sale of yellow margarine. Ohio took the matter to the polls and voted last November by 1,282,606 to legislate pre-colored margarine. Nine states have gone the same way in permitting it to dwell on the glories of big government. Perhaps the battle won't be joined in full force during this session of Congress. For even though the present administration has spent more money than every other administration combined in the history of America, it will be a while before there is complete understanding that the cost of government is irreconcilably tied to its functions and so-called services. The nation today is at the crossroads. Within the next two years, the decision will be made either to plunge madly along with a program of monumental government spending—which is a direct road to totalitarian government—or to apply the brakes, balance the national budget and make America live within its income. In either case, the line is drawn. International Printing Week ter and bad butter as you could imagine—and yet the dairy industry raised the rank and quality of good butter—just as the margarine manufacturers have advanced the quality of good, excellent margarine. Thirty-two states have legalized the manufacture and sale of yellow margarine. Ohio took the matter to the polls and voted last November by 1,282,606 to 799,473 to legislate pre-colored margarine. Nine states have gone the same way in two years. There has been more tom foolery than common sense in the ways and methods by which the fight has been carried on to outlaw margarine, notwithstanding the fact that it is being used in the same manner as a food by the poor and the rich on their dining room table. The Line Is Drawn With Congress in session again, it has become suddenly clear that for the first time in eighteen years government spending is the political issue before the nation. The price tag which hangs on big government has been spotlighted rather than the gaudily be decked package itself. It isn't difficult to give a logical explanation for this sudden phenomena, though the political aspects are intriguing. Apparently it has suddenly dawned on many Republicans and Democrats that the taxpaying public is acutely aware of the cost of big government. Thus while the Truman administration by the longest stretch of the imagination would never want government spending to become a political issue, the weight of public opinion has backed it into the position of defending greater and greater spending, deficit financing and higher taxation rather than roads. Within the next two years, the decision will be made either to plunge madly along with a program of monumental government spending—which is a direct road to totalitarian government—or to apply the brakes, balance the national budget and make America live within its income. In either case, the line is drawn. International Printing Week In nearly every city throughout the land printers will pause—the chatter of the composing machines and the rumble of the presses will be stilled—for a moment or two during the week of January 15-21. The printing craftsmen will be paying homage to their patron saint, Benjamin Franklin, that "... humble printer of Philadelphia." And bookmen, editors, paper makers, ink makers, writers, statesmen, business men, professional men,—in fact all of us,—will pause to honor the printers. We will pause to honor a group of men whose devotion to their craft has made it possible to live as we do today. For without books without the records so necessary in our daily lives, we would be living in an incredibly primitive state. A child is heavily handicapped who cannot read. How handicapped we should all be if the writings of our fellow men had to be duplicated painfully by hand. The function of the art of printing in our society is too often overlooked since it never falls; since it always provides the most vital tool for our communication with one another. It is appropriate that we pause and salute "that humble printer of Philadelphia" and all who have followed after him. AFFAIRS OF STATE by EARL G. WATERS SACRAMENTO (WNS)—The question is still being asked. What happened to Goodwin J. Knight? After building up a lot of steam in behalf of his bid for the governorship the lieutenant governor suddenly reversed himself. In doing so he left a lot of Republicans out on the limb. There has been some suggestion that a deal was made between Knight and Warren. This road by the impeccable trave SACRAMENTO (WNS)—The question is still being asked. What happened to Goodwin J. Knight? After building up a lot of steam in behalf of his bid for the governorship the lieutenant governor suddenly reversed himself. In doing so he left a lot of Republicans out on the limb. There has been some suggestion that a deal was made between Knight and Warren. This the Governor denies. It has also been suggested that the whole short-lived campaign was "cooked-up" between Warren and Knight to stay a formidable bid by some other republican. Both of these theories seem untenable. What could Warren possibly offer Knight to accomplish either? To a man of Knight's ambitions nothing short of an appointment to the U.S. Senate or the state supreme court would be satisfying. But there are no vacancies in either instance. Besides, even in politics, there are some deals which would be too rank and either one of those suggested would seem to fall in that category. The best guess is that some of the great powers in the republican party took the lieutenant-governor aside and pointed out the cold facts of life. That is that Knight's chances to win the republican nomination against Warren were extremely dim. That his best opportunity lies in continuing as lieutenant governor. The chances are, should Warren be re-elected this year, Knight will be governor within two years. For if Warren wins over Roosevelt, he becomes outstandingly prominent in the national picture. If he is not the republican presidential nominee in 1952, he will probably have stepped up to some federal position of importance. Anyone who thinks the forth-coming race for governor is a penny ante game had best take another look. There are big stakes involved. The whole national picture for 1952 will revolve around what happens in California this year. For if Warren can defeat Roosevelt he is almost a lead pipe cinch to be the republican presidential nominee in 1952. On the other hand if Roosevelt is the victor he, will be on his way to national prominence. Those are the stakes. A republican victory in 1950 points to a national republican victory in 1952: A democratic victory this year almost guarantees a democratic sweep in the national picture two years hence. This is something new for California. Never before in its history has it been cast in such an important role. Don't think the candidates have overlooked this. Both Warren and Roosevelt know the stakes they are playing for. So, too, does President Truman. And reliable sources from Washington report Truman is ready to deal with Roosevelt and patch up their old quarrel. Regardless of who wins it is now certain that California is coming into its own nationally. For neither Warren nor Roosevelt nor any other bidder for national prominence can, in the future, fail to recognize the importance of the west. IN THE DAYS OF ONG AGO By MRS: HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago January 30, 1875 During the storm on Sunday at an empty lighter, anchored beside the bar at Anaheim Landwrent adrift. It took a norther-direction and was subsequently ashore near the mouth of new San Gibriel river. The roadbed and track of the road on the north side of Coy Creek was much damaged by storm. What mail we have had week come out on a hand car. Last Sunday after the San Diego which had passed San Luis Rey, was hailed by three men who insibly wanted to take passage. For riding a few miles they were used for their fare, and after an ing insolently were put off the ride. Arriving at the next station below the driver found that had neither mail bags nor exits box, these articles having quietly distributed along the way by the impecunious travelers. We understand that Mr. Dreyfus lands placing an iron front to store, and it is also reported that Mr. Kroeger contemplates the construction of another brick building.

Among the visitors to see Kalahaua, king of the Kanakas while he was in New Bedford, Massachusetts, recently, was an old sea captain, 90 years of age. This old salt is now the sole survivor of the crew of the first whaler that visited the Sandwich islands, 75 years ago, and at that time the queen of the islands swam out to the ship.

The survey showed that 50 per cent, yes, a full one-half, of the product was sold to people who had not previously used orange juice. The same survey showed that in only 16 per cent of the new product came into competition with fresh fruit. So what? Think that one over again. Fifty per cent of the fresh frozen concentrate was new business for the orange grower. And only 16 per cent of fresh fruit customers were hurt. Some of the big boys better forget their bear stories and get on the ball. If they don't some are sure to get knocked off. Here is an axiom: The Valencia crop must be handled in a way to give consumer satisfaction and insure a profit to the grower. That is all there is to it.
