GOOD WORK ACCOMPLISHED

~ Several months since the
Press began a campaign to compel
Los Angeles to recognize its natural
obligations to this valley. For weeks
word has been coming to this Office
that in commercial and financial cir
cles in Los Angeles the justice of the
criticism by this journal was being
recognized and discussed. Finally, as
a direct result of this campaign 115
of the most prominent business men
and bankers laid aside their work and
devoted two days to study of this
and Coachella valley, earnestly seek
ing to find means for welding together
the interests of the city and of the
valley.
One of the specific things asked for
by the Press was the loaning to the
people OF this valley at reasonable in
terest of S4,O0O,OOO to S5,0O0,000.
w F. Holt, taking up this idea at
the conference here Thursday night,
put it in more definite form, and sug-
gested that the Los Angeles banks
form syndicate for the purpose of
making loans in the valley at the rate
of a million dollars a year for five
years.
This appealed to Willis H. Booth,
vice-president of. the Security Savings
Bank, as a business proposition, and
he has undertaken to organize such a
syndicate among the Los Angeles saw
ings banks, with the understanding
that the rate of interest will be about
Z per cent.
Should this project be consummated,
the Press will have accomplished a
work the value of which to the valley
cannot be estimated
Another result of the conference was
that these 175 leading business men
returned to their homes with the
avowed purpose of spreading the story
of wonderful achievements in Imperial
valley.
But the fact was pointed out by
General Passenger Agent F. E. Bat.
turs of the Southern Pacific that the
people of this valley must get pub.
/ licity.
/ Practically nothing has been done
to this end, and the Press is now 60
ing to bend its energy to another cam
paign.
! 1t is believed the time has come
when a friendly spirit of cooperation
is to exist in>Los Angeles, and now
it devolves on the people of the valley
to do their part to challenge the at
/ tention of the home seekers.
AS has been said, twenty millions
of added value can be given to the
lands of this valley in year or two
simply by letting the people know
what there is to offer here.
Half of the task the Press had in
hand is now accomplished. The other
half may be done as easily if the peo-
pie of the valley will cooperate to thai
end.
If the Press has been able to reach
and arouse the leading business mer
and bankers of Los Angeles, it ought
/ to be able to reach and win the co
operation OF the business men ant
I farmers of ImOariaI vallav
The details of this program will be
given later.
Meanwhile, how many people in In
perial valley will stand with the Pres:
in a campaign of publicity designed
to turn the tide of colonization in thi,
direction?
