This is the first day of school, and
to many is one of the prettiest pic

long procession of kiddies, all washed

sickness for the opening session, is a
pageant of youth and hope. The
youngster cannot for more than day
endure this beautifully dolled-up'
attitude, for too much of this high
water mark of cleanliness is fatal to
happiness. Of course, they must to a
degree growl and fret, but not one OF
them in ten would remain at home, il
given a chance. AS matter of fact
time begins to hang heavy during the
late September days and long before
the vacation is over and while they
may not appreciate the inherent
value of what they are doing, they
are accessible to the motive of com
petition which never loses its allure
ments.

SENATOR WORKS
POSITION STATED

The position of Senator Works
against the Imperial Valley land Of
flee is set forth in the following let
ter:
Washington, Feb. II, 1915.--Cham-
Der of Commerce, Ell Centre, Cal
Dear Sirs: I am in receipt of your
letter of the 3rd inst, asking me to
support the bill to establish land
office in Imperial Valley. intro
duced this bill in the Senate at the
request OF Messrs Kettner and Kent,
who seem to be especially interested
in it. Why Mr.. Kent was interested
! do not know.
81 must say to you that | have
very grave doubts whether there is
sufficient reason for establishing this
new office or not. The bulk of the
public land business in Imperial coun-
" has already been done. There is a
public land office at Los Angeles that
can easily take care Of the business.
1t only results in the Inconvenience of
people IN Imperial Valley in travelling
to and from that city. But, judging
from my own knowledge and expert
ence in the matter, very large pro-
portion of the people who have taken
up and are interested in the land of
flee business in that section live eth
er in San Diego or Los Angeles. 1t
would only mean large additional
expense to the government and give
some people jobs and maybe help the
business of some of the lawyers IN
Imperial Valley press., 1915-03-02

Imperial Valley and maybe in San
Diego, and give them business which
is now being done by lawyers in Los
Angeles.
"'rhere should be showing of real
and material necessity for the estab-
lishment of any more offices in this
country. We have altogether too
many of them now. While | intro
duced the bill, am not going to sup
port it unless | am satisfied that it
is reasonably necessary.
"Your chamber ought to be careful
about asking any other member of
Congress to support a bill of this
kind unless you are satisfied, by your
actual knowledge on the subject, that
the office should be created in the
interest Of the general public.
Sincerely yours,
JOHN D. WORKS, u. S. s.
Imperial Valley press., 1915-03-02

to send early asparagus, melons,
beans and other products by motor
truck and deliver the produce in Red
lands. Cotton, Riverside. San Bernar-
dino, Ontario, Pomona, Pasadena, Los
Angeles. Santa Ana and other cities
the day after it is harvested in the
fields. Night trips by truck would
make this easily feasible.
Roughly estimated, the population
of the counties opened to that sort of
marketing plan is as follows: Los
Angeles, 10000; San Bernardino, TO-
900; Orange, 10000; Riverside, $4,000
or total of close to 100000. San
Diego has population Of from 10000
to 10000. 1t is very easy to figure,
therefore, that it is much more i'm
portant to the farmers of the Imperial
and Palo Verde valleys to get an out
let to Los Angeles and the adjacent
counties than it is to provide addi-
tional connection with San Diego.
That situation is adequately and lib
orally met already, but the population
there is limited and the connection to
the larger centers of population is
almost ten times as important. Ari-
zona offers no market to Imperial
Valley products and a road in that
direction serves only the tourist; we
can afford to wait in providing for
him until general conditions of trans
continental auto travel create a strong
demand for through connecting
highway.
Every dollar of the appropriation
asked for in the Avey bill will be
spent in Imperial county, and that
county will be the main beneficiary of
the improvement planned. If the peo-
pie there are wise. they will forget
the auto road to Yuma by any route
for the present and get behind this
measure, which is tremendously i'm
portant TO their development and pros
perity.
The above views, expressed by the
Riverside Press. will not in full meet
the views at this end Of the line.
The heavy shipments from this val
ley are of cantaloupes, asparagus,
grapes, grain, fat livestock, cotton and
butter.
The valleys big markets for can
taloupes, asparagus and grapes are
mainly east of the Mississippi and
those shipped to the coast are provid-
ed with the best of transportation ia
cilties through daily refrigerator ex-
press cars.
! Grain and livestock are handled too
