clean up the morals of the city and to
rid the city of undesirable citizens.
In the police court yesterday, W.

leave town. Evidence in the case show
ed that Freeman had been living at
enc of the local hotels with woman,
who was not his wife.
Manuel Freeman was arraigned in
the police COURT this mornlngs on the.
charge of battery, but this charge was
dismissed and new warrant charg-
ing the violation of the rooming house
act, was sworn to, when it was found
that the woman he was living with

CROAT|ANS START
NEW REVOLT

PARIS, July 25.-The latest revolu-
ton in perturbed Europe is in the land
where the torch of liberty was light
ed which set the world aflame. Croat-
ians have started revolt from Ser
via according to advices from Agram
and Gratz the movement having for
its object the formation of Croatian
Republic. The revolt originated in
the army, troops leaving their units
and officers tearing off their insignia.
The army is in state of dissolution.
Violent combats between the Ser
vians and the Croatians are reported,
the center of the disturbance being
at Marburg, near Gratz where large
part of the garrison revolted as a re-
suit of dissatisfaction over demobiliza-
ton. Thirty persons were killed and
many wounded.

REPUBLICAN
CHARGES ARE
IGNORED BY.
PRES. WILSON.
Statement from WhiteHOuse
Says That When Wilson
Returns From Tour Ex-
planatiOn Will be Made.
(Bv Associated Press)


WASHINGTON, July 24.-The
charges made by Republicans on the
floor of the senate, yesterday, that
the President had violated the terms
of German treaty by his failure to
present to the senate, simultaneously
with it, the defensive treaty with
France have been ignored by the
President. His answer is given in a
White House statement that when
the President returns from his tour of
the country he will present the French
treaty to the senate with an explana-
tory address.
Present indications are that the
President will start westward about
August 10 but the exact date depends
upon the developments of the next
fortnight.
Senator Pittman, Democrat, of Ne
vada, addressed the senate today, urg
ing ratification Of the Peace Tearty,
without reservation. He said reserv-
atlOns would encourage other nations
TO like course and renew information
al dissension. He said that Japan's
most bitter fight at the conference
was to prevent the United States, Can
ada and Australia from excluding
japanese from their territories, un-
der immigration laws and could be
expected to renew the fight if given
an opportunity; that Italy, also, might
attempt to place reservations she con-
siders necessary to protect her inter-
ests at Fiume, Dalmatia and along
the Adriatic coast; that Graf Britain
might feel justified i'll adding re-
servation that the clause limiting ma
val amendment shall not apply to her
because of her peculiar position. The
senator said that speaking as an
American, not as a partisan, he be-
lieved this country would be ina as
great danger as any other if the
treaty failed. He said that already in
Europe there are signs of abandon
emnt Of peaceful intentions and that
groups of nations are feeling their
way to organization for war and con-
quest.
Under plans adopted by the Repub-
lican leaders discussion of the Peace
Treaty is to be set aside temporarily,
for consideration of the treaty be-
tween the United States and Colom-
bia which provides for the payment to
Colombia of $25 100000 for the acquis-
ition of the Panama Canal.

Failure of Second Assistant
Postmaster to Restore
Discharged Men is Given
as Reason.
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, July 25.-The U. S.
Aerial Mail pilots are on strike; the
first strike of its kinds, the world has
known. Their action is due to the re-
fusal of the Post Office Department
to reinstate two pilots who We're dis
charged for refusing to take their
planes out Tuesday on account of fog.
A protest against the discharges was
sent to Second Assistant Postmaster
General Praeger on Wednesday and he
was given "a hours senake known
lis decision. Praeger replied last night
night with refusal to revoke the
decision. AS a result no aviators ap-
peared to take cut the Chicago mail
which was due to start from Belle
font, Pa, at 5 O'Clock.
1t is stated that the aviators COM
planned that the planes supplied them
were poorly equipped for flying be-
cause of their high speed. They de-
sired lighter and slower machines as
in misty, foegy weather, visibility is
so poor that high speed is dangerous.
The aviators declare that during July
there have been fifteen accidents, 10
planes demolished and two aViators
killed.

Some Plain Facts for the
Dairyman
Z FRANK PELTRET

Z
'1f we had been able to get
good management the company
would have been a success" is the
reason given by Banker Hender-
son for the failure" of 'The Pure
Milk Distributors Of Sacramento.
During the brief existence of the
company it managed to accumu-
late liabilities of $212,047. OF
this, $4,000 is owing to the
Northern California Milk Pro-
ducers' Association which is affi-
lated with the Imperial Valley
Milk Producers Association thru
their common membership in the
Associated Milk Producers Asso-
ciation. AS a S50,000 mortgage
covers the plant and the claim Of
the dairy men is less than ten per
cent of the remaining liabilities
they would not be able to sell il
fer very many cents on the dollar.
-: 4;
The interesting explanation OF
the manager of the broken con-
Germ is that when they raised the
price of milk two cents a quart
ce,s.sz,. 1tt1oH fell osf SO pen cent?,
*fa;
Inefficient management and fu-
tile efforts to buck the law of
supply and demand have caused
the failure of most would-be
trusts. Lawyers and bankers are
usually the promoters of these
combinations and the men who
have madeya success in their in
dividual plants absorbed by the
combination usually get its full
value in cash. and bonds and get
cut Of the business and the hired
men who succeed them run the
business en- the rocks. The promo
tcrs, of course, get their money
cut of the investing public.
##*
On the face of things, Banker
Henderson did not take much of
a chance on the Pure Milk Dis
tributOrs. 1t was only capitalized
for $4,000 and the majority stock
$4,000 was held by Russell Rich
ardsOn, a former employee of the
banker. OF course Henderson could
not hold the stock himself. That is
never done in these promotions.
1t is held by someone else in Or
der that the promoter may lend
his banks money, lawfully to the
concern and to avoid liability in
case the venture should prove .
failure. The banker has a perfect
legal right to lend his own money
to the majority stakeholder under
such arrangements as he may see
fit to make.

Under glaring caption "Another Lie Nailed" the
Progress this morning brought Manager Kellogg of THE
IMPERIAL VALLEY MILK PRODUCERS ASSOCIA-
TION, out into the open in support Of promoter HEN
DERSON, the author and able advocate Of the 'hide-
bound" contracts.
Up until today Henderson's local unit so far as the
public concerned practically dsoWned him.
Heretofore nothing has emanated from the office Of
the local bureau which would suggest that the association
here had the emotest interest in the Sacramento or
ganzer Despite the fact that he is we'll known to have
been the author of of its troubles in catching the
members with his percious form Of hde bound" con-
tracts and faacous skm-mk theories is secret that
the Directors of the Association have been greatly agta
ed in trying establish that Henderson has connection
with the Imperial Valley unit of the Associated Dairymen
of California. a4 MNa MgM
However, thus far the only visible results of the
thought and worry which the ocal Board has expended
an affidavit published in the Henderson organ July 17th
in which W. J. L. King makes statement, that all of
the member ship fee Of five dollars per COW lis now and
always has been under the control of the directors of the

skirts from the insolvency of the Pure
Milk Distributors.
Speaking of Henderson's operations
in Sacramento in a letter addressed to
the Press, from Berkeley, June 18th,
1919, Mr.. Power said:
Now the tactics employed by the
Association in Sacramento in my
opinion, clearly shows the spirit of
the movement.
''ln this city the same results are
obtained as in Sacramento but by
different method, namely, control by
the Association officials of the PURE
MILK DISTRIBUTORS ms, COM
bination of former independent dis
tributing companies. The stock control
of this corporation is held by the fol-
lowing:
w. II. Hanlon,
G. w. Peltier,
G. A. Starkweather (Gerber's SON
in-law),
Russell Richardson (Trustee).
"While Mr.. Henderson does not ap-

srol of the largest distributors, the
same iron clad grip is had as exists
in San Francisco. This control operat-
ed last year to force the price of lac
oer quart upon the people of Sacra-
nento over the protest of Mr., AL
pert Meister, the largest independent
producer and distributor.
"In this particular case, you will
note Mr.. Henderson appears both as
President of the Producers Associa-
| ion and as actually engaged in fore
ng Mr. Meister on behalf of the AS
| sociation Company, (THE PURE
MILK DISTRIBUTORS INC)
If any dairymen have been fooled
heretofore with claims that Henderson
nas nothing to do with the Imperial
| Valley unit, it ought to be plain
,nough now that such claims are SIM
)ly "molasses to catch flies" Hen
ierson put over the "hide- bound" con-
racts Henderson says the Imperial

S one of his units. Allison Peck shows
hat Henderson's eXchequer is reeeiy-
ng enormous contributions from the
ocal organization And now comes
Manager Kellogg into the open IN de-
'ense of the State organizer.
If any dairyman wants any more
evidence he had better wait until Hem
/ lerson comes down here.
Henderson has told the money-lend-
ers and bond buyers that "the ln-
perial Valley unit is next in line for
financing.

MIL OMAIZE MARK ET
OPENS A TGOOD PRICE

County Farm Advisor DR.. w. 0.
Johnson, received a letter from the
hay growers association that arrange
ments have been made for the dispos-
al of the entire valleys output of milo
maize.
According to the letter milo maize
is now worth $67 per ton tnreshed.
Imperial Valley press., 1919-07-25

The charges of Allison Peck, who
is asking "a square deal for the dairy
men," that Henderson has beer heavily
assessing the local unit, and that the
local unit has also been paying en-
olmous monthly dues to the State
Combination, have been met only by
prolonged and significant silence from
the bureau of the local unit.
With today's developments, how
ever, it now appears that Henderson
has another defender here; that makes
the count two; one is Henderson's
own local organ, the "Progress," and
now comes no other than the Manager
of the Imperial unit, /. M. Kellogg.
Kellogg, if the Progress quotes him
correctly, says he was in Sacramento
at the time the insolvent Pure Milk
Distributors Inc. was organized. Kel-
logg, so the Progress feature story
goes, saw failure for the concern even
before it started. Kellogg told Han
lon, the mgr, he would fail. But Hen
derson stepped in and loaned the con-
cenrn $4,000 and allowed the Sacra
mento unit of his State Combination
of which he is President to be stun3
for $4,000.
WHAT A PITY KELLOGG DII
NOT GIVE HIS FRIEND HENDER-
SON A TIP AS TO THE CERTAIN
FAILURE OF THE PURE MILK
DISTRIBUTORS INC.
HOW COULD KELLOGG %TAND
BY AND SEE HENDERSON BACK
ING AN ENTERPRISE THAT WAS
CERTAIN TO FAIL WITH CRED
IT'S UP TO $4,000?
Henderson is posing as the Moses
who is going to save the Californi;
Dairy Industry. He is asking dairy
men all over the State to entrust
their affairs to his management. That
is why the local unit, in the language
of Allison Peck, is making enormous
payments to Henderson's State eX-
chequer.
What a shame that Kellogg did no
save the reputation of this great
benefactor, Henderson, by sounding
a timely warning-before the $4,000
of credits were put up.
But the foregoing is mostly anoth,
er story. 1t is what might be styled
slight depression and simply shows
up Kellogg as a man without thought
for the reputation of his friend.
The main point that Kellogg want
ed to get before the dairymen in de
fense of Henderson was that Hender
son had nothing to do with the de
funct concern which sat upon his door
step, that is, nothing to do with it ex.
cept the detail of loaning it $20,000
