BUSINESS MEN
DISCUSS PLAN
FOR N. AND NJ,

Through plans being discussed by
small committee Of representative
merchants, Ell Centro may soon have
new civic-trade organization-a
Merchants and Manufacturers AS
sociation. In the event that the as
sociation is launched successfully, it
is possible that it will be expanded
into county organization.
The idea is meeting with some dis
enlargement, inasmuch as many bus
mess people, who are members of
the Chamber of Commerce. do not
desire to have two organizations and
feel that the work of the boost body
as a town builder and community
leader should not be neglected or
weakened.
Incorporated in the membership Of
the proposed organization would be
commercial houses and their officials,
professional men, and those who fig
ured on membership in the recently
projected Rotary Club. 1t is even
possible, say rumors in business cir
cles, that the idea will be abandoned
in favor Of less restricted organi-
zation, probably a Rotary Club.

INTRODUCING ROADCOMMISSION

Mr.. Voter lend us your ears for few minutes
for a heart-to-heart talk on affairs which are of
vital interest to you.
Did you know that Well-oiled perfect-wOrkng
political machine is being built up in this county;
that it is already in operation and that the first ef-
feet of its steam roller tactics is that the Ell Centro
Hotvle-Seeey district-the great heart Of the I'M
perial Valley-has been disfranchsed on the most
important question before the county electorate,
next to the all-important problem of water?
Through combination of forces and the drv-
ing power and personality Of the leader of this
chine, aided materially by the bringing out from
cold storage of the scenery Of politics it
played in the Weremembered Southern Pacific
days. the county has been seWed up on the road qes

In other words, in America, famed the world
over for it's representative form of government
no taxation without representaton-there is
county where the minority is in the saddle and has

from the majority
AS a result, this distlict-the great heart" as
it has been aptly described in boost literature-has
no vote, no power and no voice on the commission
which will have the opportunity to frame the good
roads policy of the entire county
Who is the engineer Of THIS machine the man

who by playing politics. favors his own district to
the detriment of the Valley as '"hoio YOU may well

First Briefs in Case Which
Is Attracting Widespread
Attention Are Received
Here.

The appeal of the Imperial Devel-
opment company from she decision OF
the Superior court in its suit instl-
tuted against the City of CaleXico for
alleged unlawful imposition taxes
has reached the Supreme court.
The appellant has filed its first
brief, printed copies having been re-
ceived here today.
The case is attracting widespread
attention even outside Calexico. be-
cause of the fine points of laws in
volved and the coming Interpretation
of the high court on the taxation of
import or export goods when con-
tanned in their original packages.
The action involves the legality OF
a tax levied by the City of CaleXlco
on imported cotton from Mexico IN
the original packages and stored in
the warehouses of the CaleXico Com
press company.
The judgment in the lower court
was for the defendant.
The city has held some of the cot
ton for sale as a result of the non
payment of the taxes, while the
greater proportion of the lavy has
been paid by the plaintiff under pro-
test.

ENRICHED BY
OIL STRIKE EESS
IN NOR. TEXAS
Syndicate Formed Here In
vests $4,000 in New
Fields-OtIlers Own Land
in Territory.

The newest oil strikes in the Texas
fields, developing to great magnitude
in the past six months, are having
a far-reaching effect and may be the
means of making several Imperial
Valley men, both owners and inves-
tors, Independently wealthy.
A syndicate of Valley men has re-
Gently been formed for the develop
ment of big leasehold in the heart
of the new oil territory This syndi-
cate has invested approximately $50
900 and has been so fortunate that
within ninety days time they have
seen their money grow until their
property can now be sold for $780,
600.
The oil strike is spreading pros
perity in the Valley in a direction
other than to the investors. Several
Texans, who have permanently set
tied here, but who have maintained
and held their property at their for
mer home, have been offered, and
many have accepted, flattering sums
for the lease of land in the immdi-
ate vicinity of the new fields.
Altogether, it is estimated that
Dame Nature and Dame Fortune
working in conjunction, have added
more than q quarter of million dol
lars to the bank balances of lmpe-
rial Valley folk in the last six months
