GIFT To E.C.
Introduces Bill Directing
the War Department to
Donate a German Gun to
This City.

Secretary S. w, Leffingwell, sec
retary of the Chamber of Commerce,
today received a~retter from Con-
@ressman Williafr>kettner to the eff
feet that he has iftroduced a bill
to donate a captured German cannon
to FL Centre. The subject of the bill
follows:
"Authorizing the Secretary of War
to Donate to the Town of Ell Cen
tro. Cal, one German Cannon or
Field Piece.
"Be 1t Enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the Unit
ed States of America in Congress as
sembled, That the Secretary of War
be, and he is hereby, authorized and
directed to donate to the town of Ell
Centre, one cannon or field piece cap
tured by the American army from the
forces of the Imperial German gov
ernment during the present war, or
used by the American forces in ac-
ton while at the front in Europe"
Accompanying the copy of the bill
is letter from P. c. Harris, adiu-
tant general, explaining that but lit
tie of the captured war material has

though the War Department ha:
asked General Pershing to send al
such materials as can be distributed

FORGERY PLEA
Imperial Man Is Convicted
of Charge of Forging
Name of Acquaintance on
Check.

After being out for but forty y-five
minutes a jury in Judge Franklin J.
Coles court at noon today brought in
a verdict that Joseph McCaffray of
Imperial was guilty of a charge of
forging the name of Jack Ruhrdorf
on a check of $26.
The prisoner will be sentenced on
Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. The
crime is a felony and the maximum
penalty is a term of fourteen years in
the state penitentiary. 1t is probable
that the case will be appealed by At
torncys Joseph Seymour and Barry,
for the defense.
The case has been on of the most
stubbornly contested criminal trials
of the present calendar. Deputy At
torney Whitelaw, who has just been
formally reappointed to the county
legal staff, handled the prosecution.
While the evidence adduced by the
prosecution was largely circumstan-
tial, the story of the principal witness
was corroborated in almost every de-
tail. The defense denied the charge
and argued that the prosecution failed
to make case in showing intent to
defraud.

Washington, Jan. 14.-The trans
ports Manchuria and Canada sailed
from France today with 1900 troops
on board.
President Wilson gave dinner
Monday evening to members of the
American peace commission and their
technical advisers. Colonel House
was the only absentee, being too i'll
to leave home.
A start has been made in the ma
chinery through which America will
learn of the doings of the Peace Con-
ference. Hitherto the French and
British press has had access to much
more information than the press rep
resentatives of the United States
The Allied nations may decide to is
sue a Joint committee prepared by a
committee representing all the ma
tions of the conference, this to be
the sole official outgiving.
Paris, Jan. 14.-France, Great Brit
ain, the United States, Italy and ia
pan will each have five representa-
tives in the Peace Congress. This
was decided on today by the supreme
council The British dominions will
be represented apart from Great Brit
ain. Canada, Australia. South AT.
rica and India will have two repre-
sentatives each and New Zealand
one. ,~t
Paris. Jan. 14--Russia may be rep
resented, together with all other ma
tions that engaged in the war against
Germany, at first formal meeting OF
the peace conference. Whether Rus
sia will have delegation irrespective
of party, probably will be decided al
next meeting preliminary to congress
This will be held tomorrow. FRS
question coming befoer the actua
peace conference will be the league
of nations. 1t became known toda!
that congress will devote twelve hours
if necessary until this question is wei
on way to completion.

FORMER ARMY
OFFICER TAKEN
ON BAD CHARGE

Captain Burk, formerly an officer
in the United States army, was ar
rested this afternoon at Calexico on
charges preferred by George H. Ha-
mez, who is also in the United States
military service, being stationed at
Camp Lewis, Wash.
The complaint charges Captain
Burk with the embezzlement of ap-
proximately $3.50 from Hamez in a
business deal resulting from the sale
by the latter of his garage at Ca
leXico.
The sale was made when Hamez
was called into the military service

The money alleged to have been en-
bezzled was a sum due to Hame2
from a firm as repair bill on 8
number of cars. ..
Hamez alleges that Captain Burl
collected the money and appropriat
ed it to his own use.
Captain Burk denies the charge.

The unequivocal answer of Frank.
lin X. Lane, SECRETARY of the Interior
that it would be to the best interests
of the people of the Imperial Valley tc
vote ratification of the Laguna Dam
contract, published at the top of this
column, practically settles the election
of January 21.
This was the opinion expressed on
every hand today following the re-
lease by Joseph F. Seymour, repre-
senting the Chamber of Commerce
and Leroy Holt, president of the I'm
perial Irrigation District, of tele-
grams they received from Secretary
Lane.
The language Of the secretary puts
at rest doubts expressed by many
voters as to the best policy to be fol-
lowed by the valley, as well as putting
a final ouietus to lot or irresponsible
talk quoting the secretary as opposed
to the ratification.
In many quarters today it was re-
garded as certain that the cabinet Of
ficer's stand would cause the deser-
tion of the naturalization camp and
and almost unanimous vote for the
measure.
Other observers on the other hand
declared that while the passage of
the contract was now certain a large
vote would be registered against it
because of local issues and prejudices.

Y0UNG c MA n
DISAPPEARS
IN HEART. Of
FL CE n TR 0.
Accompanies His Parents
to Show Saturday Eve
and Drops From Sight;
Foul Play Feared.

Fearing that foul play CT . sld92.
illness has stricken their son, Mr.
and Mrs. J. H. Latham, who arc il
Ell Centro on their way to Arizona
today appealed to Sheriff Charles
Applestill and Marshal c. C. Toney
for aid in locating Miller Latham.
Young Latham, who is % years
old, disappeared on Saturday night
in the heart of the city. He had ac-
companied his parents to a motion
picture show. In the middle of the
performance he asked to be excused
for moment, and has not been seen
since that time.
Mr.. Latham, the father, today
caused advertisements to be placed
in several Valley papers offering a
reward for any information which
would lead to locating the missing
man. The parents can ascribe no
reason for the disappearance and
cling to the belief that their son has
met with some bad companions and
is now victim of foul play.
The Lathams are making a leisure
ly tour with a horse outfit from Ida
no to Arizona. They stopped here
the latter part of last week to await
some important mail. This arrived
on Saturday evening and they had in
tended taking up the trek again on
Sunday morning, but have now de-
layed the continuance of their trip
until some definite clew to their sons
whereabouts is found.
The missing man is described as be-
ing feet 9 inches tall, % years old
weight 13O pounds, light complexion
wore dark gray suit, drab hat with

FOR Ell R0P {

Washington, Jan. 14.-President
Wilson's renewed request today for
Congress to appropriate $1OO,OOO,00O
for food relief in European countries,
other than Germany, was followed
last night by passage in the House
of thee bill carrying the appropria-
tion. The vote was 243 to 73. The
measure now goes to the Senate,
where administration leaders plan
early action.
In his message the president said
that Bolshevism, steadily advancing
westward, could not be stopped by
force, but could be stopped by food.
Food relief, he said, was the key to
the whole European situation, and to
the solution of peace.
