ASKS $4,000
AND RETURN
Of MONEY
S Pc n I
Attorney in Washington
Announces Decision of
Secretary Payne of
Referee Is Acceptable to
Him; Big Sum Asked.

Mark Rose. now that the secre-
tary of the interior has cancelled his
contract for the construction of the
All-American canal, has agreed to
accept any compensation the secre-
tary or a fair-minded referee may
decide is equitable. according to an
announcement from Washington
this morning. The announcement
was made through his attorney, r.
Woodland Gates.
According to the latest offer of Rose
which was made several days before
the secretary cancelled his contract,
he is asking:
$4,000 for himself.
$4,000 for attorneys fees.
Repayment of all money expended.
The board of directors Of the I'M
perial Irrigation district has wired to
Washington that the board will pay
any amount which the secretary or
his referee may consider proper.
This has been reiterated in a tele-
gram to Washington since the news
that Marks contract has been can
celled reached the city. The board in
it's wire said that it believed it would
be subject to a great deal of criticism
if any amount were paid to Rose with
out the approval of the secretary of
the interior. 1t was stated that if the
secretary approved any sum this Would
absolve the board from local criticism
There appears to be distinct
chance that although the contract has
been abrogated, Mr.. Rose and his sup
porters will yet be none the worse
financially because of the Imperial
Laguna Water company.
The changed complexion of affairs
in the past two days has been appar,
ent to all concerned. Mr.. Rose deci-
sion to accept such compensation as
the secretary or his appointee shall
consider fair, comes within 48 hours
after his contract has been cancelled
Heretofore the status of things has
been different.
Marks name has also been promin.
emily mentioned as the successor tt
c. d. Manning, Holtville member oil
the board who resigned at the Tuesday
meeting. His friends are said to be
circulating petitions to have the super.
visors name him as director from the
Holtville district.
Imperial Valley press., 1920-04-15
QUICK ACTION
IS TAKEN. BY
new HEAD
INTERIOR
Director A. P. Davis Will
Prepare Comprehensive
Plan and Submit to Secre-
tary Payne at Once; Will
Expediate Matters.

Secretary of the Interior Payne
yesterday issued orders to Director
A. p. Davis of the U. S. reclamation
service to work out possible plan
for the construction of the ALL
American canal and the disposal of
public lands under proper legislation
and present them to him at the ear
lest possible moment.
This is separate and distinct from
the provisions of the Kincaid bill but
it is understood that certain provisions
OF both overlap.
The action by the new secretary of
the interior indicates that quick ac-
tion on all the essential details prior
to the actual construction, of the canal
and action by congress will be taken.
The department of the interior has
also been advised and understands that
the construction of the proposed first
leg is in effect but the construction
of the first part of the All-American
canal. The department has taken no
action in regard to the construction
of the first leg, either to approve OF
disapprove although individual men,
bers of the department, notably Di-
rector Davis, have urged it's construc-
ton. ~
1t is expected that action on the
Kincaid bill will be secured within a
very few days and that the machinery
towards securing the data asked for
by congress next December 6 will soon
be in motion.

TRIP TO MEXICO
BYFARM HEAOSON
WATER PROBLEM
Decision of Farm Bureau on
First Leg to be Announced
After Inspection Tour;
Cotton Questions Receive At
tentiOn.

The water question was by far the
most important question to come be-
fore the directors of the Farm Bureau
at the regular monthly meeting of
the organization held in the private
dining room of the barbara Worth
hotel today. The problems now con-
fronting the farmers occupied the en-
tire morning and before adjourning
for luncheon a motion was passed,
urging the directors to make a per-
sonal trip below the line and inspect
the conditions there, that they may be
able to deal with the subject in first
hand manner. Lated definite action
will be taken and their stand on the
plan for building the first leg of the
proposed canal by the board will be
made public. e.
The date for the trip was not set
but was left to President B. o. Irvine
and it was suggested in the motion
that it be set not later than next week
in order that prompt action might be
taken.
Mr.. Garrett and Mr.. Cook of Braw-
ley, interested in the organization of
the cotton growers of the Imperial
valley, were present at the meeting
and told of the movements now on
foot for the uniting them into body.
Mr.. Garrett stated that by carrying
out the proposed plan the price of
cotton can be reduced from 2 to 5
cents per pound without endangering
the margin of the grower.
In explaining he said, "The cotton
growers in combining with the gin
ners, namely the Southwest Cotton
company, and placing the distribution
under one head will be in position to
offer their materials to the manufac-
turing concerns at the present market
price, minus the surplus demanded by
labor"
Heretofore it has been necessary for
the farmers to hire their individual
help. while under an organized head
the same amount of cotton can be
handled with two-thirds the labor.
The Southwest Cotton company, un-
der the head of the Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Co., is heartily in favor of the
plan.
A meeting has been called by the
parties most interested in the plan, to
be held at the Central Union High
school Saturday, at 3 o'clock, and at
which time details will be given out
with figures and steps taken towards
bringing the men together. The Sec
retary of the Farm Bureau was re-
uuested to send notice to all members
to be present.
4 This afternoon other questions con-
fronting the farmers were taken up

TRAIN COLLIE DOG
TO CARE FOR GIRL
WHO is GOING BLIND

SAN FRANCISCO, April 15.-A
half grown collie dog, humane
workers here have learned, is being
trained at Pleasanton, town across
the bay from San Francisco, to take
care of a little girl who is gradually
going blind.
Little hope of the child retaining
her eyesight is held, and it is believ,
ed that the dog will be able to leae
her safely when she is no longer abb,
to make her way about alone.
