Special Gable to The American.
PARIS, June 1.-THE papers are
forever writing about the new
France" and telling of how our young
men have changed, but nobody seems
to have disco cred that our young
women too have been transformed.
The young French girl Of to-day is
indeed entirely different from the
timid, shy and coquettish maiden Of
a few years ago, who had nothing to
do but to accept the husband her
parents picked out for her She is
now asserting an independence, that
would have been shocking at the be-
ginning Of the century, and she has
become a great lover Of sport as her
American sisters.
Gets to Know Other Sex.
As a matter of fact it is her new
love Of sport which has transformed
the French girl Of to-day, for play
ing tennis and hockey she came into
free and easy contact with the OPP
posite sex and To her utter amaze
ment she learned that men were
neither the demi-gods nor the utter
villains she had been taught in the
convent schools, and that a nearer
acquaintance robs them Of much of
their romantic glamor. The frank
comradeship which games make pos
sible is making her better able to
hold her own and 10 protect herself.
Yet the transformation of the
French young girl cannot be wholly
ascribed to sport. There has been
a great universal awakening and as
the result our young girls are no
longer satisfied 20 sit at home pa
tiently waiting for their parents to
catch a suitable husband, but want to
paddle their own canoes, marrying if
they meet the right man but doing
very well without a husband If they
remain single.
Formerly French society has look
ed down on girls who made their own
living but no one thinks of doing
such thing any more.
Miss Pankhurst Stunned.
Independent and self-renant though
our young women have grown, they
look with horror and disgust upon
their sunragette sisters in England
and II Miss Christabel Pankhurst re-
ceives female visitors at all in her
exile here. there are certainly no
French women among them and not a
single feminine voice win protest
when the Government shortly con

ems rights across the frontier which
am told will happen very soon.
The feminine population Of Paris
is firmly convinced that the English
sufragettes are monsters and 10 the
other Ctrocious crimes add that Of

worst freaks Of fashion in hats have
been named after them
Nevertheless" Jules Claretie writes

KAISER CAUSED
GREAT STRIDES
Of NEW FRANCE
Patriotism of People Aroused by
Demands of German Ruler
Against DeICasSe.
BY GEORGE DUFRESNE.


PARIS, June 14.-In a political
salon the other evening. for we have
salons once more in France as we
had in the days of Nine. de Stael
a discussion sprang up on the sub
ject. who is responsible for the naG
France" which we hear so much
about nowadays, who is the creator
and who are the bearers Of the new
national spirit, that like the bird
Phoenix arose with renewed vigor
and youth from the great scandals
Of Panama and the Dreyfus affair?
It was generally agreed that the
regeneration Of France is due to two
men, who are bitter political enemies;
Kaiser Wilhelm, of Germany and W.
Delcasse, at present French ambas-
sador 10 the Cars court.
1t was the conflict between these
two men which aroused France from
the apathy in which she had been
suffering for decades.
Before the French people realized
what he was doing, the Kaiser saw
clearly that there was no more SER
ious stumbling block in his path than
NJ. Delcasse. Ii was necessary to
get him out of the way, so the Kai-
ser demanded his removal and France
had to obey
It was on that day that the new
France was born with a lusty cry.
And il was the Kaiser, who time and
again caused the new born to grow
big.

Boston, Oct. 6.--The administra-
tion currency program is expected to
be the chief topic at the thirty-ninth
annual convention of the American
Bankers association, which opened
preliminary business sessions today at
the Copelly-Plaza hotel. The chief
discussion on this topic is expected to
arise when a resolution is offered
suggesting that the American Bank
ers' association adopt memorial pc
titioning congress to adopt the
amendments to the Owen-GlasS meas
ure, which were suggested by the re-
cent bankers conference in Chicago.
1t was made known for the first time
today that there is strong insurgent
element composed Of the smaller and
rural bankers who are openly in favor
of the administration currency pro-
gram in toto. The convention will
continue through October 10.
Today's program consisted of COM
mittee meetings, the annual sessions
of the executive council at the Copley-
Plaza hotel, sightseeing trips around
Boston including trips to Concord,
Lexington, and along the North
Shore and a water carnival on the

done on parts of the Los Angeles
Phoenix race course, according 70
Charles Soules, who has just COM
pleted the so mile run in his Cad
lilac.
Soules went through without trou-
BILE, but he is an experienced driver,
and men who have done less work
on the desert will have considerable
trouble.
"In comparing the course of this
year with that Of year ago, l must
say the new course is the most dan
gerous and the hardest. The
first 1875 miles compare favorably.
From a short distance beyond San
Diego to Ell Centre and through the
Mountain Springs grade, the road is
very dangerous and nerveracking.
From Ell Centre to Mammoth Wash
the roads are in good condition.
"The wash is in a terrible state,
have never seen it so bad. 1t is aD-
solutely necessary that work be done
here, as a car stuck can tie up the
whole race. From there to Yuma
there are a great many washouts
which make the road worse than ever
before.
"The sand in the wash the day we
went through had drifted across the
road until there was a wall five feet
high blocking our path. If we had
not had real automobiles We would
have ben there yet"
"The Cadillacs gave a wonderful
demonstration Of what modern mo-
tor car will do," said ]. E. Brown.
"We came to places where it did not
seem possible that any kind of a
vehicle could get through, but we al
ways came out on the right side and
kept moving.
"The road is a hard strain on the
driver and the car, but it is the kind
of race that is worth while. The
harder the better for Cadillacs.'

Los Angeles, Oct. George Purdy
Bullard, Attorney General of Arizona,
father of the Phoenix road race, and
the man around whom all the real in

was in Los Angeles last Tuesday and
Wednesday to settle the details of the
big contest. He says this race is to
be the one great contest of the series,
with an entry list that will make them
all sit up and take notice.
Mrs. Bullard, the beautiful and ac-
complished wife of the prominent
Arizonian, was with the Father Of
the Race" and is also satisfied that
it will be something to talk about for
a long time to come. Mrs. Billiard

There was never 50 much interest

to dope the racers as best can. OF
course Purdy tells me all about the
race, and though he is so busy with
other matters, he always has time
to spend at least a few hours each
day, in correspondence.
Among the prominent society wo-
men of Phoenix the race is choice

Jurisdiction in Mexico
On Imperial Canals is
Now Judicially Determined

A communication received from
/ S. T. Tyler, assistant to Receiver
Holabird of the California Develop
ment Company, indicates that the
Mexican Court of First Instance at
Mexicali has judicially and finally
passed on the question of jurisdiction
believed this will effectually end the
contention that has existed to the det-
riment of the people of the valley,
who are Indifferent as to the person
mel Of the controlling factor, but who
will welcome recognition Of an Of
ficial head to whom they can look as
the one person of unquestionable au-
thority. From this it appears that
Depositario Andrade is just as def
nitely placed in Mexico as Receiver
Holabird is on this line. The COM
munication is as follows:
"Calexico, October 4, 1918.
editor Imperial Valley Press: Dear
Sir. ] am forwarding to you here
with statement of what occurred
just prior to, and after the cessation
Of work by the Receivers forces at
the Encina Flume, and which has been
the occasion for the Receiver to move
his entire organization, with mater
ial, tools and equipment out of Mex
leo, and to cease work in Mexico
Yours truly,
rs. T. TAYLOR"
The following is the communication
referred to:
"In connection with the cessation O!
work by the receivers forces on the
repairs to the Encina flume, which
was in compliance with the order OF
Judge Salinas, of the court Of the first
instance in Mexicali, given to Super.
intendent of the Valley Division Peck
at the Encina flume on Thursday al
S =. m.
when the order was given the
Judge notified Superintendent Peck to
meet him at the flume on the follow
ing day. and the meeting occurred at
2 p. m. Messrs. Peck, Berry, Best
and McKinnon were examined by the
Judge, and at the conclusion of Super
intendent Peck's examination the
judge called Assistant to the Receiver
Tyler to his temporary office.
an answer to questions which Mr.
Tyler propounded the judge Informed
him positively and definitely that the
receiver of the California Develop
ment Company, w. H. Holabird, could
do no more work in Mexico on the
canals and structures, or on any prop
erty of the Sociedad in charge of A
! F. Andrade, depositario, except the
repairs to the dredgers Gamma and
Delta; that no other work could be
done by the receiver on the property
in question, except by permit issued
ty the judge.
"Mr. Tyler inquired what was the
lnodus operandi for securing the said
Imperial Valley press., 1913-10-06

permit, and the judge stated that it
would be necessary for the receiver
to employ an attorney.
"Mr. Tyler told Judge Salinas that
he did not believe he understood the
gravity of the situation; that for the
past four years all of the funds which
had been expended in Mexico on the
canals and structures on the property
in question had been furnished by Re-
ceiver Holabird; that the interests of
10000 people, cultivating 100000
acres of land, were at stake, and that
some one would have to do the work
on these canals in Mexico to avoid
disaster to the people in Imperial VAL
ley, inasmuch as the receiver could no
longer do the work.
"The Judge replied to the above: 1t
is better for YOU implying that the
receivers organization would be that
much money ahead.
"Mr Tyler then stated that here
tofore other ioacffitaon tanunutaaoa Gao
tofore other officials Of Mexico had
only stopped the receivers operations
in Mexico here and there, but that
his operations on the canal system in
Mexico had never been stopped at any
time in its entirety, as at present.
"To this the judge replied: you
understand me very WELL
"Mr. Tyler further inquired as to
what would happen if he did not now
stop work entirely on the property Of
the depositario, and Judge Salinas re-
piled, 1T would be very bad for you,
as I would have to put you in jail
"Judge Salinas spoke in English
and there was no question but that
Mr.. Tyler understood him perfectly
and that Judge Salinas understood ex-
actly the intelligence which he was
conveying to Mr.. Tyler.

with reference to repairs in progress
on the dredgers Gamma and Delta,
the big dredgers planned to be used in
the Alamo channel during the cool
weather. The party went to the lc-
cation Of the Gamma, where Judge
Salinas informed them that the re-
ceiver might proceed with the re-
pairs to the Gamma, but that it would
be necessary for them to present him
with written request, in Spanish, on
Monday, covering the work still to be
done.
with reference to the repairs on
the Delta it was unofficially under

"Water orders will be handled as
usual through Receiver Holabird's Of

water will be delivered as usual, as
the receiver does not anticipate that
there will be any interruption in the
