And 1t Will continue to increase and
spread and work its havoc lust as
long as the real people, the real ranch
ers, the real property owners, the real
backbone of the valley step aside and
do nothing to stop it.
Our credit with the outside world
four stability as community rests
primarily on the success of the I'M
perial Irrigation District, and the sue
cess Of the Irrigation District de-
pends upon its board of directors.
Our present board has achieved an
enviable record, for the first time in
years the district has all current bills
paid and substantial balance in it's
treasury. The business of the dis
trict has been in good hands and has
been transacted in an able manner.
substantial progress has been made
under the guiding hand of President
Nlckerson, and when a body of hot
headed farmers and ranchers under
the name of the Imperial Valley Far
mers' Protective Association gather
IN a mass meeting. such as was held
last Saturday in the Court House, and
plan the recall of the Board of Di-
rectors, of the Imperial Irrigation
District, simply because they had
accepted the resignation of General
Manager Chronholme, it is the opin-
ion of the Imperial Valley Press
THAT 1T is TIME TO CALL A
HALT"
Every member of the Board of
Directors of the Imperial Irrigation
District have thousands of dollars in
vested in this valley; most of them
have their all. These directors are
Just as anxious to succeed, and are
just as anxious for the valley to 90
ahead as the man with smaller in
terests. The directors have the best
interest of the valley at heart and in
conducting the affairs of the district
the board has to contend with thou
sand and one different things; about
which the layman knows nothing.
Saturdays meeting fails to disclose
any serious thought or attention be-
ing given by the farmers of the Pro-
tective Association to the aftermath
of the action which they propose. 1t
is encouraging to note that following
Saturdays meeting a few of the cool
Ter heads held second meeting, or
tganized themselves under the name of
Athe Anti-Recall League and adopted
sthe following resolution:
Whereas, there was he'd in Ell Cen
ltro on Saturday, November 5, a mass

meeting under the name of the I'M
perial Valley Farmers Protective As
sociation, and which body by state
ment and resolution claims to be q
representative body of the voters and
water users of Imperial Valley;
Whereas, the said Imperial Valley
Farmers Protective Association did
on that date adopt resolutions de-
manding the recall of certain mem
hers Of the Board of Directors of the
irrigation District, and who did fur
ther appoint committees to prepare
and arrange for the circulation of said
recall petitions:
Therefore be it resolved that we. a
body of responsible water users and
taxpayers of Imperial County, who,
TO- the eXigencies of this occasion do
form ourselves into a temporary or
ganization under the name of the
Antl-Recall League of Imperial
County to combat the pernicious in
flrence of Nsaid recall movement. do
hereby call upon all taxpayers and
voters to join with us in its defeat.
for the following reason:
The contemplated conference with
Secretary of Interior Fall in the near
future over the early consummation
of the Boulder Canyon and All-Amer-
lean projects.
At this time it is absolutely neces-
sary to present a united front to the
world in order to secure the enormous
benefits which will accrue to us
through the construction of these
projects by our Federal government.

(RV Ae~noiater Press,

MEXICO CITY, Nov. More
than 600 native fighting bulls, repre-
Isenting an aggregate value of S1,425,-
900, will be used in the various bull
fights to be held throughout the Re
public of Mexico during the coming
season, says Don Jacobo G. Prantl,
agent of one of the largest breeding
establishments in Mexico
Senor Prantl declares that the ma
tional sport is increasing rather than
decreasing in popular favor.
Although an enthusiast for the
sport which he terms "the grandest of
all in the world" Senor Prantl joins
in the objections raised almosts unani-
mously by foreigners here against
the use of horses, which now are push
ed blindfolded and sfivering into the
path of the infurated bulls. Horses
are needed, however, he says, in or

Friends of Post
Master Defeated

Postmaster Collins paid The
Press visit this morning. He an
nounced the sad news that, due to
his recent illness and that of other
members of his household, there
would be no birthday party this
year as heretofore. This event,
which in years gone by has been
one of the notable festivities of the
year, would ordinarily be held this
coming Thursday.
However" said the Postmaster,
Il need everything; l do not want
any silk hose, as it does not wear
long enough. A suit of clothes, un-
derwear, shirts, shoes, etc, will all
be acceptable. On the other hand.
| do not care for any jewelry, as |
will have to sit up nights watching
it, and in my present state of
health cannot afford to lose
Sleep"
Incidentally. the private tip of
the editor of The Press to the
friends of the Postmaster is, that
he has always had secret longing
for a plug hat and white vest.
This outfit of course should be
completed with a cane. Provided
there are any friends of the Post
master who care to see that his
wishes are gratfied. the advice and
cooperation of this office are as
sured.

CHICAGO, Nov. 7.-Regulation of

Capper- -Tincher law going into effect
December 4, is attacked here in suit
set for argument before Judge X. NJ.
Lands today.
The bill questioning the constitu-
tionality Of the future trading act
was filed by John Hill, Jr., a men,
ber of the Chicago Board of Trade,
on October 25, and it is the first suit
to test the law.
1T is claimed that the act is in vio-
lation of the constitution of the
United States" said Mr.. Hill, land it
will be taken to the United States
Supreme Court with the least pos
sible delay"
Reviewing his argument against the
act, Mr.. Hill said it would follow
these lines:
"That the future trading act de-
p1ives the members of the board of
trade of their property without due
process of law, in that the compul-
sorry admission to membership on the
board, of representatives of cooper
ative associations will impair the value
of all membership on the board.

ment charged a man named Attell
with conspiring with baseball play
ers and others to defraud by fixing
games, there was nothing to show
Abe was the man. He added that
when detectives from Chicago ar
rived next week he felt confident
they could not prove that the Abe
Attell in court was the Abe At
tell alleged to have been in Chicago
in 1919. for his client. he asserted,
