BTK BACKS TROUTMAN KAULBARS 261 NORTH LEMON ST. • KEYSTONE 51149 Orange County's First Funeral Directors EDITORIALS No More Family Arguments? (As Jotted Down by Stan Wilson, Publisher, Turlock Daily Journal) Husbands and wives may awaken some morning to find that the California legislature has made it illegal to hold family arguments. The first step toward establishing peaceful relations in the home home might be Assembly Bill 2097, introduced by Assemblyman Bane. His proposed legislation would cause the Director of Social Welfare to look over your shoulder while you apply for a marriage license, for you'd be required to answer certain questions "pertinent to the potential success of the marriage." Such questions would deal with compatibility, employment, housing, etc. But the bill is not only for those planning to get married. It also is for those who want to get unhitched. It sets up conciliation clinics in each county (wouldn't you just know it would add more people to the payroll?) to which you'd have to go before you could file for divorce. These conciliation clinics would delve into the problems that threaten dissolution of the marriage, and then the unhappy couple would be offered a lot of tax-payer-paid-for advice in an effort to keep the home together. So for as we know, there haven't been any bills introduced yet prescribing the number of days, months, or years two people have to stay engaged or how many years they have to be married before they can get divorced. But be patient. If such legislation would call for more... These conciliation clinics would delve into the problems that threaten dissolution of the marriage, and then the unhappy couple would be offered a lot of tax-payer-paid-for advice in an effort to keep the home together. So for as we know, there haven’t been any bills introduced yet prescribing the number of days, months, or years two people have to stay engaged or how many years they have to be married before they can get divorced. But be patient. If such legislation would call for more clinics and tax-eating bureaus, it’ll be forthcoming. Government has to grow you know. There are a couple of taxpayers with a buck or two in their pockets, and we’ve got to get it. Billion Dollar Paycheck If all the people now on the Federal civilian payroll lived with their families in one new city, it would be the second largest city in the United States. Sen. Harry F. Byrd has announced that 2,361,000 people now collect their pay from Uncle Sam. And their paychecks no total more than a billion dollars every month. What is more important, their paychecks come out of our paychecks. Government workers averaged 11 per cent pay raises during 1958, but few taxpayers did. Many of these workers are engaged in programs which business organizations such as the National Association of Manufacturers, as well as many individual citizens feel to be non-essential or even detrimental to the welfare of the nation. But even if every program the government now conducts were to be continued, Sen. Byrd assures us that more than 150,000 jobs could be abolished without impairing efficiency in the slightest. Today, the Federal government is running in the red and is having great difficulty in borrowing the money it needs to make up the deficit. In the face of these facts, Sen. Byrd’s suggestion is just plain common sense. Operation 'H-E-A-P' When economy-minded taxpayers recently got together to review some of the budget-busting bills currently being promoted in the alphabetical wonderland at Washington, P.O. Box 364 Tustin, California May 23, 1959 Editor: Anaheim Gazette Dear Sir: Is life so valueless, or freedom of so little account, as to be taken from us through lack of a telephone call or telegram to our State Senators? Assembly Bill 1448 awaits final passage in the State Senate, having passed the Assembly 71-2, and leaving the Senate Judiciary Committee on a “Do Pass” recommendation, despite remarks of Senator Grunsky that such legislation could mean a police state. Following is a reasonably accurate report of the telephone conversation I conducted with Senator Murdy of Orange County, Friday morning, May 22. I introduced myself to Senator Murdy and made reference to Assembly Bill 1448, to which he replied that he did recall that the bill provided that 10 per cent of local police fines be held in a fund for training police officers. He pointed out that we had no provision for training police officers prior to duty, and that this bill would promote efficiency. I asked, "Isn’t this something we should do at home?" pointing out that the fines were not as important as that a Commission would be set up under the Attorney General which would set standards for police officers and would select and train them for local communities, and that it seemed that this bill would put ‘teeth’ into Brown’s “little red book,” placing the police under the virtual dictatorship of Attorney General Mosk. I asked “Should we sacrifice freedom for efficiency?” “Perhaps it puts the training in the wrong hands,” Murdy replied. “I supported the bill in Committee, but I’ll look into it further based on your call. An efficient police force needs qualified people with advance training, however, which this bill would provide.” “But, Senator,” I asked, “is there anything more efficient than... Operation 'H-E-A-P' — When economy-minded taxpayers recently got together to review some of the budget-busting bills currently being promoted in the alphabetical wonderland at Washington, they came up with H-E-A-P, to describe both the number and size of current Congressional grant-in-aid proposals. Among numerous new or extended programs of Federal grants currently under Congressional consideration are major bills in the areas of Housing, Education, Airport and Public Works (HEAP). The legislative programs and their 5-year costs, as estimated by governmental spokesmen, including housing and area re-development, $6.5 billion; education $15 to 17.2 billion; airport construction, $0.6 billion; and public works and community facilities, $5 billion. Among numerous grant proposals, these add up to almost $30 billion cost over the next five years. This is a "HE"P" of money—particularly if Uncle Sam continues to operate at a deficit and has to borrow it all. This would heap higher the mountain of national debt which will stand at $285 billion on June 30. The proposed expenditures, are, of course, in addition to the $77 billion budget message for fiscal year 1960 submitted to Congress by the President which is geared to a return of administrative and fiscal responsibility to the States. Unlike many of the popular nationwide "operations," which accomplish great works of military prowess, scientific achievement or humanitarian gain, OPERATION HEAP is one of which taxpayers had better beware—for they could be left in a hapless heap. The Tax Digest Disneyland Returns To Full-Day Slate Disneyland has returned to its open seven days a week schedule, park officials announced. The park's attractions are now open to the public on Mondays and Tuesdays, the days Disneyland had been closed during the winter and spring months. "Perhaps it puts the training in the wrong hands," Murdy replied. "I supported the bill in Committee, but I'll look into it further based on your call. An efficient police force needs qualified people with advance training, however, which this bill would provide." "But, Senator," I asked, "is there anything more efficient than a police state?" "I'll be glad to look at the bill further," he agreed. "As I said, the training may be placed in the wrong hands." Assembly Bill 1448 should be on file at local libraries. It would not be far-fetched to presume that the standards, selection and training of police officers under the commission to be established by A. B. 1448 would follow the pattern outlined in Governor Brown's "Guide to Community Relations for Peace Officers," which, despite its bright green cover, has been referred to as "Brown's little 'red' book." I know not what course others may take — but I've made my telephone call to Sacramento, and I'll be watching for my Senator's action on Assembly Bill 1448!
