DAVE MATL0Ck
CITY MARSHALL;
OLIVER AN AID
Mayor Otto Ohmstede Makes
Appointment Last Night at
City Council Meeting; Oliver
GiUen A Boost.

Deputy Sheriff Dave Matlack was
last evening appointed new city
marshall by Mayor Otto Ohmstede.
Former Chief Oliver will be retained
as an assistant to Mr.. Matlack at an
increase in salary.
In making the appointment the
mayor explained that no prejudice
existed against Mr.. Oliver but that
as he was comparatively new man
he was unfamiliar with the valley to
certain extent. Mr.. Oliver was
given high praise for his efficient
work in cleaning the city of boot
leggers, drug peddlers and other Of
tenders by Mr.. Ohmstede.
This was the principle business
before the city council last evening.
Other matters transacted, were in
brief:
Philip w. Knights was named city
engineer, with power to establish
grades, make inspections and issue
permits for stret work.
The problem of clearing the streets
of parked automobiles at night to
aid the street cleaner was brought
up and will be taken up with the car
owners.
President Clifford Coggins and a
delegation from the chamber of
commerce asked the city to help in
solving the problems of the Imperial
Valley Gas company which is about
to suspend operations. The city
council took no action.
The building ordinance commission,
appointed by the former council, was
abolished and Mayor Ohmstede will
appoint a new one.

COTTON GROWERS
SIGN PETITIONS
FOR CHEAP LABOR
Increment Started by Valley
Bankers, Who appreciated
the Labor Situation, Gains
Momentum Rapidly.

The imperial Valley Growers asso-
citation, organized last week by the
cotton producers of Imperial Valley
charges no membership fee, collects
no dues or assessments, and furnishes
its services free to every rancher who
signs the petitions at the local banks
on being circulated by H. S. Reed and
Clifford Coggins, the local members
of the board of directors. The only
requisite is the signature on the petit
tionS, which are addressed to the gin
companies to secure labor from Mexi-
co to cultivate and gather the cotton
crop.
The movement was started by the
valley bankers, who appreciated the
labor situation, and who realized the
necessity of securing workers to care
cotton if the valley is not to suffer
great loss next fall and winter because
of lack of cotton pickers. Imperial
Valley should have not less than 12O,-
600 bales of cotton this year, which
will require a minimum of $4,000
workers. There are not that many to
be had in the valley, nor in all south
ern California, so the only source of
relief fill be Mexico.
PAID EXCESSIVE PRICES
Growers last year paid to pick 10000
bales about $4,000 900 more than was
necessary, and about $1,000, 900 to cul
tivate the crop. The average picking
price was cents a pound, while Salt
River valley, which ha sa successful
growers association, picked its crop
for l 1-2 cents for short staple, and
only cents for Pima. Salt River
saved S1,5O0,000 on its chopping and
licking, and plans to save So 100000
this year. Unless some plan to re-
lieve the labor shortage in Imperial.
ranchers will be required to pay over
S5,000,000 more this year than is ne
cessary.
H. S. Reed, chairman of the board
of directors, has placed lists with all
hanks in the county, half dozen or
moro are in circulation in each city,
and the response of growers has Eeen
generous and spontaneous. In CaleXl-
co Yesterday. one grower with 10000
acres in cotton, sought for the solicitor
and placed his name on the petition.
Cnculatrs report generally that not a
grower has refused to sign, and many
have made special trips to the city to
get their names on the lists.
ASSURED OF PROTECTION
Members of the association are as
sured of protection against having
their labor hired away from them. The
workers are imported under contract
and if they refuse or fail to work on
the ranchers where they are placed,
they are turned over to the United
States officials for deportation. If

You heard the Pope express the wish that the Knights establish themselves here.
 'I long to return to America where have spent the happiest years of my life. I long to salute again the Statue of Liberty and the country of true liberty, the worthiest in which to live, although it has gone dry"
