PRINT SHOP A good representation which included members of the grand jury, the t.xpayers' association, and the county's newspapers, was given audience Tuesday by the Plumas County Board of Super- visors, when that board gave pub- lic consideration to the establish- ing of a county printing plant. Messrs Wrathburn and Johnson of the Addressograph-Multigraph sales corporation, which h a s sought for three years to convince county representatives of the sav- ing to taxpayers to be offered by setting up of a county printing plant, were first given the floor and for 45 minutes entertained the audience with glittering general- ities which were lent emphasis by quotations of the experiences of some 26 counties in the state, including San Mateo. San Diego, Kings, Washoe. Yale. Lassen and others. Asked to be more specific. Mr. UTrathburn stated that it was es- timated that this county spends some $11.000 a year for printed material in off-election years some 85% of which it could pro- duce in its own plant with an in- vestment of some $5000. Rodney Alden made the point that in his experience it would not be possible for the county to produce more than half of its own work on the equipment be- ing considered for purchase and asked for more specific informa- tion both as to the equipment and the figures given, offering in evi- dence a sheaf of county printed matter which could not be produc- ed on the offset press mentioned. Mr. Wrathburn enumerated the equipment to be supplied, which included a perforator at some $625, an offset press, a cutter, an electric drill, a plate making Unit. and sundry cabinets and supplies, in response to which it was point- ed out that the county would not have occasion to use the perfora- tor more than twice a year and the electric drill more than once. Stan Bailey of Portola pointed out that the duplicating process being considered requires the use of printed originals which, when- ever a change became necessary would have to be first produced in a standard printing plant, and that the quality of work produc- ed would in many cases be unsat- isfactory. Norman Johnson pointed out that the saving being considered of a mythical $2500 on the Voters Register was neither accurate nor likely, since ,the existing law re- gulating this work has not yet been changed, and may not l He also stated that an investigatto made of the printing set-up for Butte County, which he strewed is more than four times as M as Plumas, indicated a pomble saving of some $800 on an esti- mated production of less than $7000, and pointed out at these figures failed to compare with the salesman's estimate of $11,000 for this county, and that where allowed some $2200 for a plmtt op- erator, this county would have to expend close to $5000 in to do offset printinng. Rema;ks on the matter were also made by members of the Board Blaekman, Cloman, Flana- gan and Donnenwirth, and some comments were made by Waller Reed, Wes Quingley, Walter Cliff Ernie Leonhardt and others in th audience. Reed finally suggested that a committee be formed of wo supervisors, two members of the grand jury and two members of the taxpayers association, to investigate similar plants in the area and to ascertain actual costs and possible savings, reporting back to the Board of Sup before July 3, Others present at the hearing included 'Herb Wilcox, Leo Oliver, V. E. Mansell, Errol Bates, Tul- sa Scott. and ill Gambell.
