HAS
DIFFERENT
VIEWS
City Recorder Appeals to
Supervisors for Divis-
ion of Speed Fines.

City Recorder Whitelaw of Ell Cen
tro appealed to the board of super
visors this morning for redress in the
of motor vehicle fines and
forfeitures accruing in his office and
was granted relief by the passage of
a resolution authorizing the county
auditor to apportion such- funds as
provided by law
Heretofore, Mr. Whitelaw said, the
city has been turning over fines and
t torfeitures in automobile cases TO the
reasurer, and yet was com
1elled to stand the expense Of trial.
y ccording to the recorders view, the
cities should receive pro rata share,
this to be apportioned according to
the population.

CUT
EXPORT DUTY ON
COTTON COMING
FROM MEX|CAL|
Announcement Satur day
That 5000 Would Be
Duty Rescinded.
MEXICAN RANCHER
ENTERING PROTEST
Present Duty Even Makes
1t PrOhibitive for Seed
Cotton to Move.
MEXICAN RANCHER
ENTERING PROTEST

After notifying all the United
States custom brokerage agencies in
CaleXico that the new export duty
cn seed cotton would be $5O.5O per
ton, the MeXicali customs office
switched this morning and announced
II at the rate would be $3.50. Re-
ports from Calexico are to the effect
tlat the reduction is not sufficient, as
i, is regarded as prohbitive.
When the gins in Mexicali were
constructed it was understood at the
time that Governor Esteban Cantu
had considerable stock in the company.
Those who have studied the situation
are said to believe that Cantu intends
10 profit by the locauon of the gins
i. his capital and to arrange duties
so that it will be financially impos-
sjble for Mexican growers to ship seed
cotton to the Calexico mills.
1t is stated that Mexican ranchers
are contemplating an appeal to the
United States government with the
hope that an embargo will be placed
On all cotton entering the United
States at Mexicali. This is expressed
as a retaliatory move, but is yet in
f.. debateable stage.

The interest that will attach to

by the prominent position of the Val

amount Of all other Southern Califor-
ria counties combined. The figures
for the year ending September 30
Eave not been announced by the state
dairy bureau. Those for 1915 were
G,334,310 pounds.
That the figures will show an in
crease is practically certain, and the
extension of the industry has created
q great interest in all pertaining to

Fam Bureau Of the largest cow test

New York, Nov. 2O.-Ruth Law,
smiling little American girl, took her
place as the premier woman aviator
when she equaled the American rec
ord for cross-country flying landed at
Governors Island at 9:38 a. m., hav-
ing flown $50 miles from Chicago in
an old style exhibition aeroplane.
She was fully exposed to the cold
Wind owing to the fact that the type
f machine which she drove forced her
to sit out in front of her motor with
out shield or protection.
The plucky woman outstripped Vic
ter Carlstorm's record of continuous
fight made November 2 in the very
newest type of machine, then contin-
led her journey and flew more miles
tlan any other woman before in his
tory.
Numbed by the cold, Miss Law was
