COTTON GROWERS
MEET SATURDAY

Following the regular weekly ses-
sion of the Ell Centre Chamber Of
Commerce held last evening, a meet
ing of the Imperial Valley Cotton
Growers was called to order, which
later in the evening proved to be a
joint talk fest between both growers
and ginners.
During the past week the growers
have been circulating petition calling
upon the ginners to add charge Of
Is cents per hundred pounds to the
regular ginning rate for the purpose
Of assisting in the financing of i'm
ported labor.
| Faced with a serious labor shortage
the growers are perfecting an organ
ization very similar in nature to the
Arizona associations now in operation
and which they believe will alleviate
the labor question. With the excep-
ton of few minor changes the petit
ton as presented last night was ac-
ceptable to the ginners.
Victor Sterling of Calipatria volun-
teered to have the changes made in
the petition and to have same properly
printed and ready for signatures with
in the next few days. Mr.. Sterling
stated that he hoped to have the petit
ton completed by Saturday.
A possible solution of the labor sit
uation was offered by mining man.
whose name is withheld. in that he
stated his company would be glad to
bring Mexican labor for Imperial Val
ley cotton growers by motor boat up
the gulf of Lower California and by
truck to Mexicali. This proposition
seemed to meet with general favor and
he was requested to submit his plan
in writing for consideration at the
next meeting of the association.
Leroy Holt, president of the First
National bank, and in behalf Of the
Bankers association, briefly discussed
the various financial phases attendant
upon the cotton crop this season.
The meeting adjourned at 1880
o'clock with request that all cotton
growers of the valley be present at a
meeting scheduled for Saturday after
noon, May %. at o'clock in the Bar
bara Worth hotel.

Stop to Look. Stay to Listen

A melodrama in the highest sense of
the word is "What Happened to Jones"
which is to be presented by the Seniors
at the high school. 1t is the most de-
lightful play ever given by any class
graduating from Central, it is said.
The cast, carefully chosen, represents
only the best of talent. The bishop ap-
pears to have stepped from the pulpit
to the stage. The old maid, quaint
character, carries many of the audi
ence back to their own courtship days,
40 years ago. The leading man. Oh.
There never was seen man so hand
some, so well-versed in the art of love
making, and so capable of escaping the
police, say the girls.
The cast assures the public Of we'll
acted play. but the members should
receive the backing Of the town in this
undertaking. 1t will be presented the
evening of Wednesday, May &c.
