An editorial warns that uncertainty over a supplemental water supply and rising taxes hinder Kern County’s growth. It urges regrouping water strategy, possible alignment with Los Angeles interests, and cost cuts to avert taxpayer revolt as mineral revenue shrinks and population grows.
Paul C. Newell, editor and publisher of the Shafter Press, announces a Kern County monthly supplement. The notice lists the Shafter office at 183 S Valley Highway and provides telephone contacts Pioneer 6 4942 and Fairview 5 2580 for readers seeking information or subscriptions.
A poetic meditation on Kern County scenes and seasons celebrates the valley’s beauty and the autumn colors. The verse expresses longing for a magic power to transform people and lift spirits beyond rigid, resistant shells into fluid, wind like vitality.
