that the weather is resuming its

S00PERVISORS GIVE
TO VIEWS OF MANY
CO. 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.
