Mixed Up in Deal.
Especial to The Press)


LOS ANGELES. June 26.-Indicted
for alleged profiteering in charging SO
cents for ginning in one spot in I'm
perial Valley while a charge of 90
cents was made in cities where the
Globe Mills were bucking J. A. Harris,
Independent ginner, President w. f.
Keller of the Globe Oil Mills made
his first statement for the public last
night and said that the Indictment is
of small significance, blaming it on a
factional fight between gins in the
valley.
EXORBITANT PRICE?
In the Indictment against the Globe
concern it is declared that the charge
of 35 cents a hundredweight for gin
ming cotton at it's mills in Calexico
Ell Centre, Brawley and Holtville was
increased about November /, 1919, to
SO cents, and that the concern solic-
tied other companies engaged in gin
ming to make the same increase.
1t is further asserted that all OF
them refused to increase their prices
except the Goree-Hartman gins. Then
the indictment states, the Globe Oil
Mills reduced it's price for ginning at
Ell Centre, Brawley and Holtville at
20 cents per hundredweight and
charged that amount during the
balance of the season, while main
tanning the 50-cent rate at Calexico
in asserted combination with the
Goree- Hartman gins.
It is also set out in the bill that
the rate of 35 cents per 100 pounds
Is d talr price. while the SO cent rate
is exorbitant and in violation Of the
Lever law. The 20 cent rate is unfair
it is stated.
The five counts in the indictment
against the Globe Oil Mills state
that this asserted unfair charge was
made for ginning cotton for R. w.

NO ALARM FELT
OVER ARIZONA
LAND TANCLE
Heinen,an Will Haze Lots to Do
to Start Real Trouble and
Has Only Small Foundation
On Which to Base Action.

The situation on the Arizona side of
the river where w. w. Heineman,
owner of the land on which the I'M
perial Irrigation District wishes to
build a tower to aid in the construc-
tion Of a wier, has threatened to oust
River Superintendent F. N. Cronholm
by legal means or otherwise, is not
alarming to officials of the Irrigation
District who point out that publica-
ton off sensational stories only tends
to make the matters worse.
Mr.. Heineman, according to legal
advisors of the District, has but small
grounds on which to make his COM
plant and they do net believe that
any court in the land will give him a
restraining order on such a showing
as he is capable of making.
The District is operating on the
land under permit from the Yuma
Water Users Association, which in
turn has lease on the land in ques-
ton. The rental provided for in this
lease has been paid for this year and
it is pointed out that any action
Heineman may desire to take will of
necessity not be directed against the
Imperial Irrigation District but
against his neighbors and members OF
the Yuma Water Users Association
who willingly gave permission for the
permit.
His only action then, can be to
start suit to have the lease cancelled
and this will not involve the district
as construction work can go on during
the course Of the suit. Restraining
orders and injunctions can be granted
only, it is pointed out. where monetary
damages cannot suffice.
River Superintendent Cronholm has
been ordered to proceed with the
work regardless of any individual
action taken by Heineman. Yuma
and the valley are now working in
harmony and this it is pointed out, is
but the action of a disgrunted indi-

it! A few weeks ago nobody wanted
the democratic nomination. 1t was
the yellow dog" year Of the republi-
cans. Any republican could be elected
and any democrat would be defeated.
1t was fated and predestined.
G. o. P. NOMINATION MAKES
DEMOCRATS HOPEFUL
What have been called the Dem
bosses were running around trying to
pin the nomination on somebody-any-
body, even Mich Palmer, and all the
regular fellers were climbing trees and
running up alleys to get away from it.
But that was before the Chicago con-
vention. When Harding's nomination
was reported to Fred Lynch, democrat
ic, boss Of Minnesota, he burst into
the familiar lines Of the 23rd psalm:
"Thou hast spread a table before me
in the wilderness, yea in the presence
of mine enemy-Thou anointest my
head with oil. My cup runneth over,"
ct cetera.
And when he heard that there were
all the makings of third party in
Chicago, with La Toilette as candidate,
he concluded-"Surely goodness and
mercy shall follow me all the days of
my life, and shall dwell in the House
of the Lord forever!"
In other words the Dems feel now
that they have got a real chance.
Some of them feel that the chance
is SO good that the man nominated
here is certain to be the next presi-
dent.

SAMPLE OF ROAD
WORK is FINISHED

BRAWLEY, June 26.-The first
specimen mile of concrete pavement
laid under the highway commission
from the S1,500,0O0 bond issue Of I'M
perial county was finished just east of
Brawley tonight and after it sets for
a week or ten days will be thrown
open to traffic.
The commission is also constructing
a mile near Holtville of "Willite'
pavement which is to be used for ex-
perimental purposes"
In the spring there was bitter
controversy over the question of the
kind Of pavement that would be laid
in Imperial Valley, one faction favcr-
ing concrete and another Warrenite.
Bids were asked on as miles Of pave
ment, but when received both the
classes Of pavement were entirely too
high in price and the highway commits
sion recommended that the supervis-
|ors refuse all bids, which action was
taken.
In the fall if there is possibility
of better prices the work will be done
by force account unless there is some
change in the policy of the supervis-
ors from their present intentions.

NO BIG SUGAR CUT

Hope to Eliminate "SpecS"
from Market Within a

II hope to eliminate speollators
from the sugar markets within a

Of the Department Of Justice flying
squadrons," when asked to-day for
details regarding his campaign to
lower the cost Of sugar.
Riley said the rshners Were CO.
operating with him by refusing TO sell
to sandy and soft drink manufactur-
ers, whose willingness TO pay cash
bonuses has been ono OF the chief
factors in driving prices upward.
Some OF the big rehners, among
them Arbuckle Bros, It is said, are
refusing TO sell 10 spectators, SELL
ing direct to legitimate brokers at a
reasonable profit. In this connection
IL may be noted that II refiners re-
fuse the spectators will be forced
TO sell their raw sugar direct.
Spectators say they control the
sugar in Cuba and demand the right
to a large profit.
'"This howl Of we won't import II
and we'll starve the country doesn't
worry me In the least" said Riley.
IF the sugar Spectators quit i'm
porting, the reflners will have a
chance TO buy sugar at reasonable
prices from the Cuban growers When
the spectators jumped in and bought
up the crops they found prices up to
where the refiners refused to buy"

Wife of Welfare Commis-
sioner Accused of Refusing
to Buy Coal.

Welfare Commissioner, appeared as
defendant in the Gates Avenue Court,
Brooklyn. to-day on the complaint of
$. Stuart Rapp, one Of the tenants in
her apartment house at No. 40 New
York Avenue, brooklyn. The charge
was that she failed to supply heat and
not water in sufficient quantities be-
tween April IS and May 4.
After Mr. Rapp had testified, saying
that he paid f7b a month for five
rooms and bath and that he had suf-
fered from cold and lack Of hot water
at intervals for three years, the
superintendent Of the building, John
Braun, was called to the witness
stand.
II turned off the heat on April is,"
he said. BECAUSE there was no mors
coal. I burned some rubbish, but 1t
did not provide enough heat. On the
previous Friday had told Mrs.
Coler that we would be out OF coal
by Saturday and that II she didn't
order some more there would be no
heat on Sunday. She replied that she
would not get any more coal, and so l
had TO close the heaters. 1t takes
about a ton Of coal a day to heat the
building in cold weather"
Braun said that on April 26 a wagon
came with two tons Of coal and that
he called ,p the dumb waiter shaft
to Mrs. Coler, who occupies an apart
ment in the building, and asked her
what to do with H..
"who ordered it?" he said she de-
manded, and he said he did not know.
Then, he said, Mr.. Coler himself called
down TO him, You better take it in
you need it,"
He took II in, he said, and has been
using It a little at a time on chilly
days.
