MARK ROSE IS UP
FOR APPOINTMENT

AT a late hour this afternoon there
was large crowd in the supervis-
or's room expecting to see the board
take up the matter of Mark Roses
appointment to the irrigation board.
The board met this morning but
inasmuch as Supervisor Beal from
Brawley was not present the i'm
tortant matters were not taken up.
1t appeared today that Supervisor
George Pulliam would hold the decid-
ing vote unless the board after talk
ing it over decided to unanimously
appoint Mark to the vacancy. Su-
pervisor Holt is pledged to the selec-
tion of Mark and cannot vote other
wise without incuring the displeas-
ure of some of his constituents and at
the same time breaking his word. He
will vote for Mark. Supervisor
Brooks seems to feel that the will Of
the people should not be disregarded.
Messrs. Adams and Beal are said
to be opposed to his appointment on
the irrigation board and the deciding
vote would seem to lie with Super
visor Pulliam. He has not expressed
himself.

HANDSOME
MAJORITY
Coming South with Lead Os
$4,000 Declares Meyer
Lissner, Campaign Man
ager; All J0hnsonites are
Urged to Vote.
Especial to The Press.


SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. May B.
Meyer Lissner, chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee, johnson for pres
ident campaign, today issued the fol-
lowing prediction statement:
Hiram Johnson will carry the
state at the presidential primary
election On May A by handsome
majority. That is positive. But it
may as well be conceded that this
will be largely becauses6f the smash
ing vote he will receive in. the north
ern part of the state. He will carry
every northern county. and will come
south with a minimum lead of 5O,-
600.
BIG VOTE EXPECTED
If it were a general election where
the vote is always twice as heavy, the
plurality would be much greater, but
although there are over 1,O00. 900 reg
istrations for this election in the state
the republican registration is only
692,757 and the total republican vote
will probably be between 100000 and
$50, 900.
The total republican registration in
Los Angeles county is 183, ,15S- and in
all of the southern counties together
254,000. While, therefore, Los Angeles
dominates the south. the vote in Los
Angeles is usually a reflex of the total
southern vote. 4f
1t may confidently be stated that Los
Angeles and the other southern coun-
ties will add a substantial majority to
the northern vote; but while the state
is safe for johnson, every friend OF
California great senator, not alone

STILL SEARCH FOR DEL0NEY BODY

more hours today digging in the vi
cinity described by Watson as the
sit of the grave. Another grave hunt
will be conducted. Then, if nothing is
found, Watson will be brought here
to point out the 'graveyard'-p
viding the strangely puzzling points
in his confession do not turn the hunt
in another direction.
According to Watson's statement
he killed Mrs. Deloney late January
26 near Long Beach, drove all that
night and the next day to the place
now being combed and then buried
the body just after dark on the 9th.
These dates are fixed by the fact that
the man and woman left Santa Monica
the 26th and, Watson says, drove to
site of the grave. Another grave hunt
where they camped and where he
killed her. The murder was commit
ted about dark and the burying done
after dark next day. He could mean,
apparently, no other dates than Jan
uary 26 and 27.
But the authorities have presuma-
bly, conclusive evidence that Watson
was in Sacramento at 2:30 p. m. of
the 27th-hours before he says he
buried Mrs. Deloney at place
hundreds of miles from that city and
in another direction from the suppos-
ed locale of the murder

LOS ANGELES, ay j.
Walter Andrew Watson, who yes
terday told the police about a fifth
woman he had killed by drowning
her in Lake Washington, today
heard the list of wives read by
WOOlwine. He stopped him at
Beatrice Andrewartha and said,
That's the one"
Late this afternoon Sheriff APP
plestill gave out statement in
which he said that he believed it
would be impossible to find the
body until Watson himself can be
brought to the valley, about Friday.
An imprint of the handwriting
of Harvey Lewis" who was married
Christmas eve by Rev. f. A. Palmer
was taken and sent to District At
tOrney WOOlwine in Los Angeles
today but officers discredit to a
certain extent, the story that he is
the same man, saying the man mar
ried here gave his age as 4S,
whereas Watson is a man of AZ.

NEED LEGISLATION
GOVERNING AIRCRAFT
(By Associated Press)

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, May B.
Need of quick federal legislation gov
erning aircraft is one Of the most
striking lessons of the aero show held
here. according to John M. Rogers,
aeronautical engineer of New Bruns-
wick, N. j. This is particularly neces-
sary in connection with uniform land
ing fields, over the entire country, n
said.
primarily we want code Of inter-
national laws" he said. "Then we
want national laws based upon the
principles underlying the international
laws. State laws should then be
agreeable to and concurrent with ma
tional laws. If each state passed dif-
ferent laws regulating flying one can
readily see the harm that would re-
suit"
Imperial Valley press., 1920-05-03

"There is one thing every voter
should remember when he goes to the
polls tomorrow and that is that I'M
in the outcome of the election. The
Valley will be able to free itself from
Mexican interests over our water sys-
tenn and whether or not American
water users will be able to throw Off
the yoke of the Mexican land barons
which they now bear and whether we
will be able to prevent the Los An
geles Times Mexican Land Syndicate
from stealing the waters from the
Colorado river to reclaim their i'm
mense holdings across the line at the
evperse of the farmers on this side
of the line, will in ali probability be
decided at tomorrow's election.
"For more than three years past
Imperial Irrigation District has been
spending thousands Of dollars and the
people Of the valley have been strain
ing every resource and energp in an
endeavor to pursuade the national
government of the necessity Of doing
something to protect our water rights
against the encroachment of the i'm
mense Mexican acreage which threat
ems, like great sponge. to drain oar
canals Of water.
ALL PLANS BLOCKED
"Two years ago the people by a vote
of five to two ratified the contract for
the construction of an All-American
canal in order to free our water sys-
tenn from the stranglehold of the
Mexican interests. Since then, dele
cation after delegation has been sent
to Washington to secure government
aid, so necessary for our relief. All
have failed although the federal Off
cials admit the merit of our cause. To
date, we have been unable to apply the
right pressure in the right place to
gain congressional action. The insid-
ious influence of the Los. Angeles
Times Mexican Land Syndicate has so
far been able to block every move we
have tried to make.
"Is it not plain to every thinking
person in Imperial Valley that if we
can elect Hiram Johnson president,
we will have at the head of our ma
tional government man who is per-
fectly familiar with our local situa-
tion. having been here many times and
who has repeatedly expressed his SYM
pathy with our efforts to safeguard
our water rights and who furthermore,
has done everything in his power to
heln up every time we have called
upon him. With the president Of the
United States committed to our cause
our relief would be practically assured.
st is generally conceded that the
final solution of our water problem
will include treaty with Mexico de-
fining the rights Of each in and to
the waters Of the Colorado and great
pressure is being applied to have the
government start negotiations at once.
"NIGGER IN WOODPILE?"
"If Mr.. Hoover becomes president
he will owe his election very largely
to the Los Angeles Times which has
been his first and foremost champion.
And as president, Mr.. Hoover, would
select and appoint a commission to
negotiate the treaty dividing the
waters of the Colorado river. Who
'could possibly have more influence
