Imperial valley never had such a
celebration, before nor since. with all
due respect to Calexico's big time to-
day, and it is doubtful if the Valley

then.
There was Curley Brumbley with
his auto OF tin cans, Leo Hetzel and

with his laundry tub, all the fire boys
and the decorated fire department.

included every automobile owner and

Funtil six o'clock when every, { bell.

in the city let loose. 1t wasn't fifteen
minutes until the streets were crowd
ed, with people eager to hear the
news, and from then on the fun start

Impromptu automobile parades took
place all day. All the stores closed
or rather the clerks walked out and
left the stores to close themselves.
The schools let out, in fact no one
did any work Calexico, Holtville,
Brawley, Imperial, Calipatria and the
other Valley towns observed the day
in the same manner.

from the long weary months Of war.

The decision was reached at 4:1O
this morning, after conference last
ing more than II hours. The confer
ence then adjourned until 2 O'Clock
this afternoon.
Acting President John Lewis, Of
the mine workers, made the follow
ing statement:
Gentlemen, we will comply with
the mandate of the court We do it
under protest. We are Americans; :;
we cannot fight our government, that
is ALL"
Judge A. 3. Anderson, in the fed
eral court, at 10 o'clock this morning,
approved of the executive board OF
the United Mine Workers in calling
; the strike.
i Attorneys for the miners promised

o'clock this evening. Judge Ander-
son characterized the order as "good
faith effort" to comply with the man.
date.
+. C. Huebner, associated counsel
for the miners. issued statement for
the miners in court in the presence Of
the government attorneys, in which
the position of the mine workers was
stated as follows:
"The operators have repeatedly de-
clared they were ready to enter into
negotiations with the miners if the
strike order was withdrawn. The
government has taken the position
that in vindicatiOn of it's own suprem-
acy the strike order must be with
drawn before they would take steps TO
compel the resumption of negotia-
tions.
"The issue has been submitted to
the court and, in compliance with the
courts ruling, the strike order has
been withdrawn.
1T seems to me that the good faith
on the part of the operators requires
them to meet the miners representa-
tives at once for the purpose Of ne
gotiating settlement of this wage
controversy. and that the good faith
on the part of the government re-
quires it to see that such a resump-
ton of negotiations is had at once
