ETHEL CLAYTON IN
sECROOKED STREETS'

Ethel Clayton's photoplay, Crook
ed Streets, will be the attraction at
the Palace theatre next Saturday. 1t
is an adventure-romance of China
and was adapted from an original
story by Samuel Merwin.
Miss Clayton has the role of Gail
Ellis, who, answering an advertise
ment, becomes secretary to an anti
quarian on trip to China in search
Of rare vases. In Shanghai, Gail be-
comes suspicious that her employers
errand is not an honest one. Ventur-
ing alone into the naive section of
the city, she is involved in a brawl
between Cinnamon and roistering
French sailors on leave. An Irish ad-
vcnturer named O'Dare rescues her
with difficulty, but the adventure is
not half so startling as the one which
follows. Suffice it to say that the
picture ends happily for -iail and her
rcscuer.
An excellent cast, including Jack
Holt and Clyde Fillmore, supports
Miss Clayton in Crooked Streets. u

LAND WITHDRAWN

The United States Land Office
here Yesterday received official not
ice of the withdrawal from all forms
of entry Of practically all lands en-
braced within the big Colorado river
irrigation project commonly known
as the "all American" canal terri
tory.
Lands on what is known as the
East Side Mesa had already been
withdrawn sometime since and the
present order embraces the lands on
what is commonly called the west
side and those lands around Mecca
and Indio in Coachella Valley. The
land in Riverside county is described
by townships similar to the descrip-
tions of the Imperial county lands
which follow:
All townships under 8 to 13 south
inclusive in range 8.
All townships 8 to 16 inclusive in
range 10. 49,
All townships numbered 10 to II
in range IL.
All townships 10, IA, and II in
range 13. -,
BY examining a map it will be
seen that this includes a line begin
ming northwest of Indio and running
along the level of the proposed canal
in a general southeasterly direction
embracing even part of Salton

ALFALFA GROWERS
TO MEET SATURDAY

The milo maize growers in the ter
ritory surrounding Brawley will hold
big meeting next Saturday after
noon, November 6, at o'clock in the
city hall to discuss ways and means
Of handling this valuable crop now
ready for harvest.
1t is a well known fact that at the
time crop is redy for the market
the prices decline for no other rea-
son than that it is practically all of
fered at the same time. Each and
every grower throws his part in the
same channels of distribution at the
same time so that the price for the
entire lot is depressed while if the
amounts were listed with body that
represents the growers and the total
thereby concentrated at single
point where the entire crop could be
distributed in an orderly and syste-
matte manner the growers would
reap the benefits of reasonable
price level.
1t is not the intention at this time
to ask any of the growers to join
an association, but merely to give
heir listings with no fursher obliga-
tions. 1t is feared it is too late in
the season now to offer the plan of
handling this crop meeting with such
wonderful success in the Lemoor
district in the central part of the
state.

of the valley are cordially invited to

crowd watching The Press returns.
One Of the closing slides was an
Imperial Valley summary which has
been accurately bourne out by more
complete returns today.
About 8 o'clock the screen carried
the news that Harding had been
elected beyond doubt and this was
the first news received in this city
and given the public. 1t came
through an exclusive dispatch to The
Press and beat the opposition by sew
eral minutes.
Then came quickly exclusive
flashes that Judge Swing was carry
ing San Diego county to /, that his
election was assured and also Press
tabulations on Moughmer and Brooks
which contained results from Seeley
and Dixieland, where Mr.. Moughmer
was the strongest. These flashes ac-
curately foretold the election of MIR.
Brooks.
The first hour or more was spent
in giving news from the big eastern
centers of news. The public appre-
ciated these results as they were
rapidly flashed on the screen.
The Press was also the only news
paper in the valley which carried the
humorous angle of Bob Davis receiv-
ing votes on prohibition. These votes
were actually cast. A big laugh
went up from the crowd when the
slide was shown.
Well, it was a big night folks and
we had as much fun as you did.
