EXTEND TIME FOR
ARMY RECRUITING
PRIVILEGE TO APR. 80

The following is from the local
army recruiting station:
The war department has notified
Col. William A. Skunk, in charge of
recruiting in Southern California and
Arizona, that the privileges of So
lecting any post within the United
States will be extended until April
30. 1t had been announced that this
would be discontinued after the 18th
of March and that after that date
applicants for enlistment would only
be able to go to any station within
their district, but an extension has
been made in order to give the re-
cruits every possible opportunity to
serve in any part of the country they
might prefer 1t is expected that
after that date as a result of the
present drive, the regular army will
have reached its strength and the
great need for men will be met.
At the present time the advantages
of enlisting are exceptionally good,
with the choice Of stations. the one
year enlistments in field artillery and
engineers and the educational fea-
lures that have been so fully ex-
planned during the present campaign.
Young men who are considering the
army at all. should rot delay in
calling on the recruiting sergeant
and talking it over with him.

Sergeant in Charge.

FARM BUREAU IN
RESOLUTIONS ON
FORESTRY POLICY

The following was passed by the
farm bureau board of directors:
Whereas, the California state
board Of forestry has outlined a policy
advocating:
State requirement, protection and
reforestation on, where necessary, of
lQgged-off lands; state requirement,
protection and reforestation, where
necessary, Of watersheds; larger
state appropriations for prevention
and suppression of fires on all forest,
pasture, hay and grain lands in Cal
ifornia that are not under federal
protection.
Now, therefore, we heartily en-
dorse the policy adopted by the state
board of forestry and urge itsim-
portance to irrigation; to continued
revenue from strictly forest lands; to
prosperity through preventing the
present great annual losses caused
by fires in California.
The secretary of this organization
is instructed to see that copies Of
this resolution are sent to the GOV

LOST PEOPLE ARE
FOUND BY RED CROSS

The scope of the American Red
Cross work now being done in the
Imperial valley has been been brought
to the attention of the heads of the
organization in this section, owing to
the correspondence received by Miss
Mabel Haines, social service worker
now covering the valley, administer
ing a helpful hand to all in need.
Miss Haines is in receipt of num-
ber of letters from over the country
inquiring whether or not certain people
are in the valley and what financial
state of affairs they might be in.
While it is contrary to the rules Of the
organization to make public the names
Of any to whom help is extended, there
is nothing to prevent the workers from
extending information to members of
the immediate family, and this has
been done in number of cases. Let
ters have been received from Berkeley,
Wisconsin, Oregon and other places,
asking for information regarding the
whereabouts of men and women.
This work can be developed to a
great extent here in the valley, ex-
planned Miss Haines, for as it is
generally known by all, the Imperial
valley is made up of peopel from all
over the country.
Very little attention has been given
to the work accomplished by the To-
cal bureau fthe Red Cross during
the short time that it has been in ex-
istence. Miss Haines has outlined
her work in a systematic manner,
one day week being spent in Cali
patria, one day in Brawley and so on,
although an emergency case will find
her in any part of the county at a
late hour in the night if necessary.

GOOD ROADS REPORT
OF CALF. AUTO CLUB

The following is the good roads re-
port of the Automobile Club of
Southern California:
Los Angeles to Imperial Valley via
Ocean to Ocean Highway.-Condition
are good between Los Angeles and
Thermal. The road is in poor shape
from Thermal south through Mecca
and along the west side of the Salton
north of Westmorland. Some con-
struction work under way near Kane
Springs and poor detours are provid-
ed. Teams are on hand. however, to
give assistance to all motorists who
have difficulty in negotiating these
detours.
San Diego to Imperial Valley.-The
road across the mountains between
San Diego and Campo was not dam
aged by the recent rains. Between
San Diego and Campo there is choice
of two routes, one via Descanso
which is longer, and the other via
Potrero Grade, which has been re-
ceiving the bulk of the travel lately
on account of the saving in mileage.
Imperial Valley to Yuma.-Advise
everyone to communicate with our
Imperial county branch in Ell Centre
before starting on the trip between
El Centro and Yuma. The safest
route to use between these points is
the one via Brawlev, inland and
Glamis. 1t is possible to use the
blank road via Holtville and the Sand
Hills but this route is recommended
only to the most experienced desert
drivers. No difficulty on the former
route, although only slow running
time can be made between inland
and Yuma.
