IF anyone had told me a
year ago that Dorothy
. Lamour would be doing
her own housework as well as
the family washing ! would have
said a psychiatrist was needed.
The very idea of Dottie, who
loves clothes and parties, be-
coming a housewife just didn't
seem possible.
Yet that's exactly what has
happened. She has moved into
q little house in San Bernardino,
a town So miles from Los An
geles that is known to most Los
Angeles folk as stopping place
for travellers en- route to Lake
Arrowhead.
Major william Ross Howard,
Dottie's bridegroom of a year.
is stationed there and so she
has gone to San Bernardino to
live. She comes to Los Angeles
only when she has picture or
some special business.
Her neighbors know and like
her. She always has her San

SCHOOL FUND AMENDMENT
MERITS VOTERS SUPPORT

Appearing as Number proposition on
the forthcoming election ballot, the IN
itiative constitutional amendment sets
out method for immediate relief to the
states rural school districts. Because of
this, we bespeak its support and believe
its enactment will serve very real pur-
pose and, further, open the way to level
some inequities in the present manner OF
allocating school funds.
Stripped of all its legal and technical
verbiage, this proposed initiative amend
ment provides authority for the state
to match school districts levied income
by 81 &c plus instead of dollar for dol
lar as obtains under the present program.
Rural school districts are in real dis
tress. Levies are at peaks and costs OF
operation increase In not a few IN
stances. reputation of bonded indebted
ness is in the offing.
In needing the call of the rural dis
tricts. we are not unmindful of the fact
that the institutions of higher learning
are not in need of this assistance, and
while they will share to some extent in
the operation of the amendment. there
also is made emphatic the demand for
a more fair and equitable return of sales
tax to the source and the legislature can
not ignore this demand In the end the
meeting of this we'll defined emergency
will tend to bring about a policy which
should and can avoid another of like
kind.
Under operation of the proposal rural
districts can meet the competition forced
upon them by areas and schools better
financed in the way of teachers pay and,
in addition. can go ahead with improve
ments and repairs so badly needed.
We view this measure as worthy of sup
port And as emphatically, we call for
expedency in giving all the schools of
the state an even break.

NO VALID REASON FOR
TAX DEED CHANGES

One of the primary arguments made
by sponsors and supporters of PropOsl-
ton Number for consideration Novem
ber Z. labeled validating Tax Deeds
and listed as Senate Constitutional
Amendment No. 21, fares. in our estima-
ton, and other arguments are not con-
vincing enough to merit support of the
measure.
This argument sets out that adoption
of the amendment would safeguard the
original owner in the various legal pas
sages entailed from the time the proper
ty becomes lie until it passes to new
title The facts are that the state and
federal constitutions give that protection
and that the new measure does not make
courts any more available to the person
affected.
We do not believe it necessary or eX-
pedient that the whole process be made
a part of the constitution. Because all
the taxing units of the state are involved
and vitally interested, it seems quite
plain that a flexible procedure, such as
can be effected by legislative action at
anv time. should prevail.
There is hint of an opening for "ttle
sharks in the measure If it is necessary,
and no doubt it is, to speed up the pro-
cess of returning tax lien property to
active rolls, most certainly the leglsla-
ture can meet this call and should do So
If enacted Proposal Eight would tend
to stymie the very thing sought, by MAX

The Allies drove into the area

Churchill Close At Hand.
Prime Minister Churchill was
close at hand as this new blow was

Italy last Friday. An official an

conferring with Marshal Tito, leader
OF the Yugoslav Partisans.

Southern France. where the Patriots
had time to organize between the
surrender of France in 1910 anS
the German move to the Mediter-
ranean coast late in 1912.
The Nazis presumably have forti-
fed the coast in the meantime, but
whether they have been forced to
reduce their garrisons to meet the
Allied threat from Normandy and
Brittany is speculative.

in the great harbor, but French
naval men scuttled A to 81 warships
and damaged others before the Ger
mans could lay hands on them. A
few ships escaped to the Allies.

one OF the objectives of the Italians
when they went to war.
