SUIT At ACKS
JUDGES PRO TEN

vacation" judges or Judges pro-
TEN" may become a thing of the past
in Imperial Valley if the contentious
of Wilson & Ellison, representing
seem Brawlev clients in an action in
stituted Saturday in Superior court,
are sustained.
Margaret Morona, Tomas Velasco
and Leo Salsusa, who were arrested
and fined in the recorders court Of
Brawley city, are contesting the judg-
ment rendered because B. F. Morris,
the regularly appointed Judge, was
absent from the city and his place
taken by City Attorney Guy Rock
well.
The plaintiffs contend that Rock
well was on the bench as a usurper
without having complied with the re-
quirements for the installation of a
jurist, and thta his decision are il
legal. They allege that he failed to
serve them with complaint, to ar
raign them, or advise them OF their
rights and that no evidence or tes-
timony was taken at the trial.
They ask that the fines be remit
ted, judgment be assessed against
Morris and Rockwell, and that all
trace of the case be removed from
the police court docket. On the show
ing made, Judge Cole issued writ
of review and ordered the defendants
to appear in court within six days
with all the records in the cases.

cmy of MORTAL and Political Sciences
entered strong disclaimers to the idea
that the American people are largely
materialistic d0llar-chasers.
81 have had in recent months one
very deep senese and privilege" he
said Il have been lleenly aware that
there have been times when the peo-
pie of Europe have not understood
the people of the United States. We
have been too often supposed to have
been devoted chiefly if not entirely
to material enterprises. We have been
supposed, in common phrase, to
worship the Almighty Dol.ar.' We
accumulated wealth. we devoted our
selves to material enterprises with cN-
traordinary success, but there has un-
derlain all that, all the time, COM
mon sense of humanity and COM
mon sympathy with the high prin-
ciples of justice which has never
grown dim. even in the field Of en-
terprise. tt has been my very great
joy in recent months to interpret the
people of the United States to the
people of the world"

that all the resorts reported their
lodging accommodations were taxed
to the utmost. The trout streams at
