City Bill Sparks Heated Lobbying In Assembly Debate
Sacramento reports a city sponsored plan to raise county taxes for urban unincorporated areas faced tense Assembly scrutiny after days of debate. The measure, drawn by the League of California Cities, would require funding for services such as police, roads, and libraries, drawing opposition from rural counties and complaints of unfair tax burdens. Meanwhile another controversial bill aimed at regulating draw poker and a fluoride in water proposal drew further attention as committees weighed potential impacts and constitutional concerns.

General Admits Message Justified About China Coalition
Wedemeyer told the Senate committee that a 1945 message he, Douglas MacArthur and Raymond Spruance sent could be read as supporting a coalition between China’s Nationalists and Communists. He defended a coaliton government in China while noting his personal belief was that such a government would not be established, and he sought peace and postwar stability in China. He also criticized U.S. postwar diplomacy and MacArthur’s 1946 peace mission, and cited concessions to Russia at Yalta as painful to Chiang Kai-shek.
