To the Dyspeptic

Would you not like to feel that
your stomach troubles are over, that
you can eat any kind of food that you
crave? Consider then the fact that
Chamberlain's Tablets have cured
others-why not you. There are many
who have been restored to health by
taking these tablets and can now eat
any kind of food that they crave.

San Diego Denies That He
Has Made Announcement
Politics BreUing in Air.

"Brudder" Bill Kettner, congress
man from the 18th congressional dis.
trict is again reported as "Barkus is
willin'." Sometime ago Mr.. Kettner
announced positively and for all time
that he would not be candidate for
reelection.
Recently it is reported that a COM
mittee of citizens, republicans and
democrats, waited on Mr.. Kettner and
endeavored to get him to change his
mind
Mr.. Kettner is said to have ex-
planned that it was at great finan-
cial sacrifice that he remained in
Washington and his business in San
Diego had suffered. The citizens are
then said to have offered to place Mr..
kettner in a position where he could
rest assured that his business was
being taken care Of in efficient
manner.
The reply Of Mr.. Kettner was said
to have been, "Well, if you people
want to run me for congress, you will
have to do the running. l will serve
you one more term on those conditions
only"
In talking to The Press this
morning Mr.. Kettner said that he had
made no announcement but was consid-
ering the matter. His attitude will
rrobahlV be made public within a
few days.

ference called by Director Arthur

STEVEN SO n
REPLIES To
STATEMENT
Of ADAMS
Tells Inside Story Of Making
Public of Famous State
ment; Declares Adams Is
Now in ShOrtridge's Posi-
ton.

J. R. Stevenson, Imperial mer.
chant. who was attacked in a state
ment Monday evening by J. Roy
Adams, today replied to assertions
made by Mr.. Adams.
Mr.. Stevenson's statement is as fol-
lows:
Imperial, Cal, June 16.
Editor Imperial Valley Press,
Dear Sir: Mr.. Adams in answering
the published expose Of his conversa-
tion with Mr.. Shortridge and address,
ing all his remarks to j. R. Stevenson,
loses sight Of the fact that it was w.
Z. Stevenson of the county Y. M. G. A.
and Donald Stevenson Of the Imperial
Boy Scouts, (no relationship who
listened to the aforesaid conversation,
and that J. R. Stevenson was but one
of Is citizens of Imperial who affixed
their names to the sworn statement
OF w. E. and Donald Stevenson in
asking that it be published.
1t was when an effort was being
made to place responsibility some
where for the allowing of gambling
and prostitution that was being car
ried on in our midst that the setting
was found in which Mr.. Adams figured
III Ilc AOdIlS-OIlOTCTluSc COlVeTSdClOH
There was absolutely no purpose in
publishing these statements on the
part of any one, other than an honest
endeavor to clean up our city.
Mr.. Adams feels that "the people Of
Imperial are entitled to some facts
in regard to the matter published, a
statement Of which has been carefully
avoided" So it would be we'll to state
that the reason the expose of the
Adams-Shortridge conversation was
not published in the Imperial Enter
prise was because Mr.. Burtcher said
he could not get it up for several days
and also his paper had not sufficient
subscription list to give it publicity as
The Press and Progress Of Ell Centric
would do. J. R. Stevenson was given
the statement by w. E. Stevenson to
hand first to the Imperial Evening En-
terprise and then to the Progress,
which paper had received a promise
from W. E. Stevenson few days be-
fore to be given it for publication. Mr..

RUSS WAR BRIDES
COMING TO j. S.
(By Associated PrssHl

MANILA, June 16.-Three hundred
or more Russian "war Brides" who
have come here from Siberia with
their American soldier husbands, are
to be sent to the United States by the
government as soon as transportation
is available.
These brides come from every sta
tion in life from the peasant girl to
the college graduate and number had
been accustomed to the luxuries of life
before war and revolution drove them
from their homes.
Their experiences in Manila, prob
ably have been a disappointment to
most of them, as their soldier hus-
bands on their meager pay of $50 a
month have been unable to support
family, house rent and food prices hav-
ing almost doubled here within the
last year.
To prevent these Russian girls from
actual suffering, the Red Cross ana
other charitable organizations, have
provided them with shelter and food.
They are willing to work, but hav-
ing no knowledge Of English or Span
ism, they ara unable to find employ
ment in any Of the stores Of Manila
and native mon and boys are prefarred
for house servants.
After several weeks Of irvestiga-
tion as to the best disposition to make
Of the war brides and their soldier
husbands. the army authorities decid-
ed that they, with but few exceptions,
should be sent to the United States

of the Southern California editors as
the representative of the Imperial Val

relished two crates of Imperial Valley

WORKMEN EXCITED
OVER ELECTION
(By Associated Press)

OPPElN, Upper Silesia. June l6.-
German workmen in the plebisclte
zone are tremendously excited over the
election. Jealous patriots and firm in
the belief that Germany soon will be
on it's feet again, they are dismayed
at the possibility of Upper Silesia be-
ing added to Poland. Ruin of industry
and an irremediable setback to Ger
man labor in the district is the dark
picture they paint of Polish victory.
Seeking the views of Upper Silesian
workmen on the plebiscite, the cores
pondent asked the editor of an Oppeln
newspaper to arrange meeting with
labor leaders. The editor got together
q dozen, all German. Here are the
principal points of their arguments:
"Alliance with Poland would be a
catastrophe for Upper Silesian
workmen as they would be deprived of
the benefit of German social and labor
legislation, such as workmen's insur-
ance and compensation acts and the
employees representation in the oper-
alton of industrial and commercial
concern.
"Poland is an agricultural country
and backward socially and economical

had little experience in the scientific
management of mines and factories
Even in the agriculture the Poles still
use the most primitive methods and
implements. In their unskillful hands
the highly complicated industrial me-
chaism of Upper Silesia would be
ruined.
polish labor is underpaid. Upper
Silesia, compared to Poland, is a labor
paradise. If it becomes a part of
Poland, Poles would flock in and over
run the country, reducing wage and
working standards and forcing the
Germans out Of employment.
"If Upper Silesia becomes Polish
it goes with the East. If it stays Ger
man it goes with the West and its
people will follow in the path of the

JAPAN AMBITIOUS
fBy Associated Prsssj

TOXIC, June 16.-Japan is smbi-
tious to obtain a larger share of the
trade of the South Sea Islands which
is estimated at 2,000,O0O,O00 yen a
year. Of this Japanese exports
amount to only one and one-half per-
cent but have increased rapidly since
the war. Some Japanese commercial
