AMERICAN RESERVATIONS

States is unfair the principles of the league if

Britain had been caught the of emOtionasm which
threatened to all this country the British would
have said that the existence of policy having the
fleet inconsistent with the essential principle
tn league Engishmen then would have said that their
guaranty of good faith the surrender of their
predominance
That folly which Engishman would admit
into his thoughts might been the
purposes of league which is to prevent only by
removing provocatons and providing methods settling

EulOgizing Spreckels
Among these builders TO whom our
country must give a large measure OF
era titude is one who is with us today,
Col. John ID. Spreckels. l wish to give
frank expression of appreciation OF
what he has accomplished in building
this new railroad line into San Diego.
When the hour Of crisis came and 9th
ers abandoned the project John ID.
Spreckels refused to yield to adverse
conditions. With characteristic rosolu-
ton and with obstacles confronting him
that his colleagues had regarded as IN
surmountable, he proceeded to finish
the road.
IF Mr.. Spreckels were actuated by
purely selfish interest, / couid not
speak of him as | do. but we nave the
evidence of his resolute purposes, whea
others dutifully serving the interests
they weer representing felt they shouid
go no further, and of the obligation
felt he owned TO the people or san
Diego and to the people of the lmperial
valley TO put this road through.
Extends Greetings
Il wish also to extehu greet
ings to the people of the wonderful en-
pire Of production that lies across yon
der mountains. 1t typifies in highest
form the initiative and yirility OF the
American people. 1t is a glorious and
Aladdin-like story of harnessing
mighty river and conquering the FOR
! bdden desert. Such people are What
make the American nation great Such
people are to be found everywhere In
our land. 1t is they who with enter
prise and skill and courage lead the on
ward march Of progress. The sood
people of Imperial county richly de-
serve the good fortune that Is marked
by this celebration today.
In that remarkably fertile valley
there is arising today as in other parts
of California, a problem that must en-
list our attention. An alien race threat

proper time has not yet come for our
state to undertake solution but when
that time arrive we must be prepared
to take just and effective mea Sures, not
in q spirit Of mean race prejudice bu
on the broader lines that will easily con-
vince all Of our fellow countrymen be-
yond the Rockies Of the business Of our
cause and Of the menace that confronts
us. There are certain international as
poets that must be borne in mind and
we must act with deliberation. If Cal
ifornia's attitude is to be presented in
the miserable spirit Of agitation devei
oped by political candidates. to gain
popular favor then We shall fail OF a
correct solution. We must have in
mind the United States Supreme Court
and tre federal government, for we are
a constituent and loyal part of that
government. We shall proceed judici
ously and effectively in this matter and
under no consideration must we be led
into any precipitate and unwise course
OF procedure.
Happy Day

those of you who have come from the

tcrested in this problem. You see it
in acute form. The people Of San Diego

your attention the need OF prepared
and verified information and of careful
study and deliberation.

greetings on behalf of all the people of

and to the people Of Imperial county
and to offer the congratulations of the
governor of California on such an aus
picious occasion. This day is indeed a

is Attained.
COLLECT AT SCHOOLS NEXT
Campaign for Used Apparel is Con-
Quoted By Red Gross at
Little Expense.

Today closed the Red Cross drive
for five tons of used clothing.
Although the garments have not
yet been weighed every indication
points to the fact that Rock Island
succeeded in producing it's quota
Tomorrow collections will be made
of all the garments which have been
turned in at the school houses and
thereafter the drive will be officially
closed.
Anyone who has clothes to donate
and who has not yet sent they in
may bring them to the relief station
tomorrow but no packages will be
called for.
During the campaign the Red
Cross motor corps made over 200
calls for packages. In addition sew
eral thousand people brought in
their own bundles or sent them to
the school houses. and the rural
districts responded with nearly a
ton of clothing, shipped in by auto,
express and freight.
The campaign was conducted
with practically no xepense to the
Red Cross. The services of the en-
tire motor corps are volunteer. the
drivers donating even the gasoline.
The rooms used as headquarters
were provided free of charge. the
signs over the door and in the win
dows of the collection center were
donated.

PUT PIANO NEAR
YOUR COW; THEN
WATCH FOR MILK

Many are the uses to which mu-
sic has been put, all the way from
helping a prisoner out of Jail by
having a pretty girl sing songs to
the jailers, to aiding in assuaging
the miseries of the wounded of the
war
But none of them have quite
come up to the latest scheme by
which the owner of a minstrel
troupe engages, for a price, to
demonstrate the fact that dairy
COW can, under the influence of the
music his troupe makes. give up
vastly increased quantities of milk
He also undertakes to demonstrate
that horses and pigs become more
tractable under the influence of
musical sounds.
The first test, it seems, was made
in Indiana, where the gentleman
planted his big band in the barn
and set it going. AS the COWS came
up some of them evinced decided
Discrimination to take their places
in the stalls. Maybe the selections
did not please them. Maybe they
were English descended cows and
objected to the strains of the band
because some of the members were
probably Germans. 1t seems that
it took the cows two or three days
to get over their nervousness, when
the yield of milk became greatly
increased This was particularly
noticeable when the soft strain of
string instruments predominated.
When he can't get the band, the
owner of the cows uses a phono-
graph. One particular COW which
had always been very difficult to
milk is said to have refused to
yield to any music, but gave up
when they tried her out with Ca
ruso's Una furtiva lagrima," from
Il Elisir d'Amore."
There are many Of US who, like
that COW, refuse to give up except
for ''the great voice." and then we
gladly pay spectacular "any old
price"
