PERRY LEAVES
DISTRICT AFTER
70 YRS. SERVICE
Board of Directors Accepts Re-
signatioR of General Manager
After RecciUing Second
Letter; EffectiUe at Once.

Charging that the present system,
of the irrigation district is wasteful
causes confusion and inefficiency, To
an extent where he cannot remain IN
Justice to himself and admitting that
he wants to stay if the board would
only do things as he sees best, Cen
eral Manager C. n. Perry of the dis
trict sent a second letter to the board
of directors yesterday insisting that
his resignation be accepted. 1t was.
Just what the significance of Mr..
Perry'S banquet to two score OLD TIM
ers of the valley in MeXicali last Sun
day night was remains to be seen.
The banquet was one of the most
pleasant affairs in recent months
Many prominent valley men attended.
His letter to the board was as fol-
lows:
"Ho the Board of Directors, Imperial
Irrigation District, El Centre, Cal.
"Gentlemen: l may perhaps be par
doned for wishing at this time to make
my position clear to you and through
YOU to the people of the valley, who
have in the past 20 years put some de-
gree of confidence in me.
Before doing this, however, / wish
to state as emphatically as l can, that
= have enjoyed the friendly relations
which | have at all times maintained
with each and every one OF you, and
that / leave with the kindest Of feel
ings for the board.
s'My sole objection and the cause OF
my resignation is the adoption by your
board of policy which alreadv and
continuously has resulted in duplica-
ton, confusion and lne11lclency and
which in the end must result IN some
thing worse.
81 think it may be accepted as an
axiom, that if you wish to be able
to locate responsibility definitely you
must, to a like degree, concentrate
authority.
"The dual, control under which we
have operated the past 10 months mas
called for the exercise of unusual tact
on the part of both department heads
to avoid friction, and while on the
surface it might appear to have met
with a measure of success, a closer IN
vestigation will disclose that such IS
far from the truth.
Recently a still further division
was made, which is of such nature
as to cause an impossible situation,
and carries with it an element of al
most certain danger to the valley.
'This step was taken at time when
Icould not be present to point out
to you the danger Of its adoption. Had
/ had the chance to be present at that
meeting, l think / could have readily
convinced YOU that it would work cut
no better than would be a human limb
separated from its trunk. However,
YOU have since then ratified this reso-
luton and the only course left me,
though greatly against my person
wishes, is to tender you my resigna-
ton.
"Yours respectfully

Budapest, May 29-Startling pro- phecies relative to world peace and political changes impending in Eu- rope and the fate of prominent fig ures in the great war are made by Hungary's national soothsayer, Mime. Eybilline Bellaugh.
 Thrones will be re-established all over Europe, incuding France, Ger many, Austria, Poland and Hungary within a year." she says. 'The Ho- henzollerns will return to Germany but the former emperor will go in sane and the crown prince will be murdered. There will be sanguinary upheavals in France preliminary to the constitution of a kingdom. Bol- .shevism will end in 1921 in Russia. Mexico will be the starting point of the next war. High prices will abate and European exchange will be quot ed at par in two years. There will be the greatest exodus of Jews from Russia and central Europe n history, but they will not so to Palestine. They will rather emigrate to Argen- tine and Mexico.

TWO HlGHWAYMEN ARE
 HELD IN $2,OOO BONDS

Arthur O'Connor of Gilbert street ard Albert Villeux, alias "Frenchy, of Stratford, alleged highwaymen who are said to be responsible for a num- Der of recent hoid-ups and burglar:es in the West End, were bound over to the September term of the Superior court under $2,OO0 bonds, by the City court this morning. Both men waived examination.
 Two other members of the gang, Joseph Better of s15 Broad street and George Price of Gilbert street, were turned over to the Stratford authori- ties who want the pair in connection with a robbery in that town. Charges against both men were nolled by the court with the understanding that .ney be returned to Bridgeport after arraignment in the Stratford town court. It is likely that these men also will be bound over to the Superior court.
 The police are certain that the ar rest of O'Connor, Villeux, Price and Better has cleaned up the gang of footpads which has been doing a thriving business in Bridgeport dur ing the past two months.
 William Nichols of 3S Walter street. and Giuseppe Calabria of A Booth connection with recent burglaries and holdups in the East Side, will be arraigned in the City Court on We'd nesday morning.

MAY PROTEST
 SALARY CRAB
Expect Request Will Be Made For Public
 Hearing.

Opposition to the recently signed ordinance giving the members of the Board of Aldermen a salary of $500 a year may develop at the next meet ing of the Common Council in the form of a protest and the request for a public hearing on the matter. This was the i'm pression in political circles this morning.
 The only member of the board who opposed the passage of the measure was Malcolm Macfayden, who went out of the city this morning for the holiday, and through whom the op- position may develop. It is said that the granting of salaries to the aldermen opens up a way for all the boards and commissions in the city to look for an annual salary.
 Taxes are high enough, landlords claim, without putting an additiona burden upon those who own property and have to pass the extra charge or to the rent payers.

Because of the demands of tfte strikers, who are principally employ ed in the making department, we closed down the plant entirely early this week. Although the strikers made no such statement to us we re- ceived indirect reports that there would be trouble if we attempted to keep the factory running.
 Acting upon these reports we de- cided to obtain adequate protection for the plant, with the result that 30 armed guards were brought here from Boston. We have not sought trouble and when the disturbance passed beyond the stage where the local authorities could cope with it, we asked that state troops be sent here. With the arrival of the guards we. decided such employees as desired would be allowed to work.
