Submission of the budget-thick
as Los Angeles telephone book
came as the Legislature was wind
ing up an extraordinary session
called to pass Governor Warren's
war powers act, and preparing to
recess the bill introduction ses-
sion until March sometime during
the weekend.
ECONOMY PROGRAM
Governor Warren's general poll
cies included the assumption the
war will continue through the bien-
mum beginning next July |; that
war essential services must be ade-
quately provided for and lesser eS-
Sential services curtailed, only abb
solutely essential construction be
permitted; and emphasis Upon the
elimination of waste and red tape y
One recommendation was TO ear
mark $25 100000 for a war catastro-
pfe reserve from the estimated
surplus of $90000,000 at the end of
the current biennium. The new
ly-created war council could spend
the money only in case of an ac-
tual bombing or invasion for the
relief Of suffering, Warren suggest
ed, although it is my earnest hope
that no part of this amount will be
needed for the purpose to which
am requesting that it be dedi-
Gated"
TAX PLAN WITHHELD
Despite an estimated surplus ot
SG28,000,000 by 1945 if exiSnitg
revenue conditions continue, Cover
nor Warren withheld any tax re-
duction proposals until his citizens

ports about March Is.
Such q tremendous surplus is a
matter OF serious concern II
constitutes a sacred trust for those
who have the power to spend" he
said.
Warren cited the unusual circum-
stances OF war which produced the

of the tax structure, particularly
its base, for when both revenue ano
obligations shift, we will need al
the experience we have gained
during both the good years and the
bad to carry out the progressive

Pile
The fact that for" important de-
fense agencies are involved in re-
organization will require him tc

Black market attempts to tap the

discovered Saturday when buyers
from coast areas offered to pay
what amounted to retail price for
undetermined amounts of meat.
It was understood that valley
firms refused to deal with the buy

reported to washington through
Congressman John Phillips of the
new twenty second congressional
district.
The buyers were said to be from
Los Angeles and San Diego and to
be interested in supplying coast

President Somewhere"
On Dramatic Journey

WASHINGTON, Jan. 80.
(UP) : President Roosevelt
was 81 years old today, OBJ
serving his birthday at the
conclusion Of the greatest
adventure of his life.
A man who loved action and dra-
ma long before he came to the
White House, Mr.. Roosevelt marked
the passage of another year in his
life with little ceremony. In fact,
it was not possible to say where
and how the President observed
the date.
He last was reported in Natal,
Brazil. where he conferred with
President Getulio Vargas while en-
route from Casablanca, scene of his
epochal conferences with Prime
Minister Winston Churchill.
That meeting was one of his most
spectacular achievements to date,
involving a dramatic airplane flight
to French Morocco where he and
Churchill laid plans for an Allied
offensive later this year.
Meantime, the country, following
q custom established by Mr.. RooSe-
welt, planned to celebrate his birth
day at parties and dances tonight,
proceeds of which will go to the
national foundation for infantlle
paralysis.
There were many Hollywood movie
stars and leading figures in the
entertainment world here to appear
before the birthday balls in the ma

their arrival delayed for SO minutes
the start of Goering's address. The
surprise of the attack probably ac-
counted in part for it's complete
success. All British planes returned
safely from an area that is suppos-
ed to be one of the best defended
in the world against air attack.
Goering's speech was part oil the
Nazi party's celebration of the 10th
anniversary of its accession to pow
er. Later in the day proclamation
issued b. Adolf Hitler from his field
headquarters was read to the crowd
in the Berlin Sports Palace by
Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph
Goebbels
Hitlers proclamation pledged he
would continue to fight until Europe
was saved from what he referred to
as the menace of Bolshevism. 1t was
obvious from the statements made
by Hitler, Goering and Goebbels
that they were attempting to reas-
sure the German home front about
the danger of the Soviet Unions
winter offensive.
USUAL TRADES
Hitler warned tnat the Nazi party
would destroy anyone who did not
participate fully in the war effort.
] and he repeated his usual TRADES
against the treaty of Versailles and
the Jews.
Goering pictured Germany as the
protector of Europe against what
he called the Bolshevist menace.
Russia, he said, was trying to en-
circle Germany and that was the
reason that Hitler attacked.
1T was a glorious decision" Goer-
ing said. referring TO the attack
on Russia, ito stand up against
this wave of blood which would have
destroyed not only Germany but
the entire west"
CALLS FOR DEATH
Now the fight has become desper-
ate, Goering said, and every man,
woman and child in Germany must
be prepared to die, if necessary, to
continue the war. He compared the
German soldiers trapped at Stalin-
grad with LeonidaS' brave 300 at
Thermopylae.
This may sound hard" Goering
said, but in the final event it
makes no difference to the soldier
whether he dies in the icy wastes
of Russia or in the desert or else
where. The meaning of his sacrifice
remains the same"
Goering, the man who supervised
the blitz on Britain, offered this
cold comfort to Germans who are
under steady bombardment by the
Royal air force and the United

Old-timers claim that not since
the days of the late Attorney Earl
Rogers, the original master of spec
tacular courtroom technique, has a
trial of this kind explored SO many
legal alleys, or given a jury so
many weird angles to cogitate.
In charge of Flynn's defense is
tho portly Jerry Giesler, one-time
clerk in RogerS's law office, and
now the vests best known criminal
lawyer, who never becomes angry,
never SnarlS, and almost invariably
manages to trip up the proSecu-
tons witnesses.
Miss Peggy Satterlee. 16 charged
Flynn with taking her yachting
and attacking her twice, the sec
ond time on preteXt of showing her
how beautiful the moon looked
through a portfolio. Flynn denied
having had relations with her; in
sisted he never took her below deck
to show her anything, not even
the moon.
ASTRONOMER CALLED
The prosecutors prod,"ed upon
rebuttal a professional astronomer,
G. H. CleminShaW. who brought &C.
lestial records to show that the
moon on the night in question was
almost full and not more than one
third way up from the horizon. Just
right for portfolio astronomy, the
state insisted.
GieSler drew map of the heav-
ems on the blackboard. He explain
ed it with a pointed He engaged

rocco.
This indicated that Miss Satter-
lee couldn't have seen it without
sticking her head out of the port
hole and twisting her neck at an
90-degree angle. GieSler already
had produced evidence showing
the portfolio was six inches in
diameter and so~:ed tight.
