MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, June s.
The American Institute of Banking,
education section Of the American
Bankers association, holds its 10th
annual convention here July 10 to p
Approximately 1900 delegates from
almost every state in the union are
expected to be present
Because Of recent financial readjust-
ments, the meetings promise to be the
most important held by banking heads
this year. Five industry talks by men
actively identified with each individual
subject will be feature Of the conven-
ton. Men nationally KnvHn are to be
selected to talk on milling, livestock
and packing, automobiles, merchan-
disc jobbing and transportation.
Another feature will be a sympo-
SUM on foreign trade, in which num-
Der of prominent institute men will
participate. Questions of world wide
trade, and any relating subject which
affects American bankers will be dis
cussed
1t is planned to have among the
speakers a prominent banker, a man
high in the administration in Wash
ingtOn, and an Eastern educator, ac-
cording to members of the program
committee.

KIBBEY ENDORSED
AS VALLEY MEMBER

The Associated Veterans of All AM
erican Wars, at the last regular meet
ing unanimously endorsed Walter B.
Kibbey for appointment as the mper-
ial Valley member of the committee
to be appointed by Governor Stephens
to assist the state authorities in car
rying out the relief measures for vet
Grams of the wars, provided for in
legislation by the late legislature.
The appointment of committee for
soldier relief involving the consider
alton of large appropriation, will be
an action taken soon by the governor,
end inasmuch as there are many eX-
service men in the valley, including a
large number now undergoing rehabili-
tation on various big ranches under
the McDevitt plan, it is thought to be
a very expedient measure to get a
good representative of the valley on
the committee.
The committee proper will consist
of five men, four of whom are to be
ex-service men. The governor will be
notified at once of the action of the
Associated Veterans last evening in
endorsing Walter b. Kibbey, and it is
thought the action NEi nave consider
able weight in the naming of the men
on the committee.

JAPS
American Legion Members
Notify Attorney General
That There Are Open Vic
lati0ns of Alien Land Law
Here.

With evidence of numerous viola
lions of the California anti-alien land
law in their possession members of
Goree-Lake Post No. 90, American Le-
gion of CaleXico, last night authorized
the post adjutant to lay the matter
before Attorney General L. S. Webb
and offer him the assistance of the
post in an investigation of the question
and enforcement of the law.
The Legionaires claim that one of
the most open violations of law, which
was passed at the general election last
November, is for white American citi-
zens to lease the land and then turn it
over to JapS1ese under profit sharing
arrangement. There is no profit shar-
ing proposition really in eXistance, the
eX-service men assert, and they fur
Their state that they have evidence to
show that in most cases the land has
been turned over to the japanese with
out any strings attached
Since the land law became effective
many rumors of violations have been
heard in various parts of the country,
but the action of the CaleXico Legion
aires is the first definite information
that has been made public. The eX-
service men of the border say they
have sufficient evidence to substan-
tiate their claims and they expect the
fattorney general to take immediate &C
ton toward ending the alleged practice
in Imperial Valley.

OIL MILL TO START
WORK AT IMPERIAL

IMPERIAL, June 3.-Operation of
the Harris cotton seed oil mill is ex-
pected to begin within few days,
when the new plant will start pressing
1000 tons of seed, which has accumu-
lated at the four gins owned at I'M
perial, Brawley, Hcltville and Goa
chella by j. A. Harris.
At the end of the ginning season
Mr.. Harris found himself with an inn
mense quantity of cotton seed on hand,
which was directly responsible for the
installation of the oil mill here. The
plant has four presses and six linters,
and will employ IL men.
In connection with the oil mill Sir.
Harris expects soon to provide feeding
pens for approximately 5000 head of
cattle, where a large quantity of the
cotton seed cake from the mill will be
fed. He expects to have about 1000
cattle of his own fed at the proposed
pens.
Because of the great quantity of
linters available, movement has been
started by the local Chamber of Com
merce to establish a mattress factory
in which this part of the oil mill pro-
duct could be utilized locally.

IMPERIAL CAKE
Largest Shipment of Oil Cake
EUer Made Here Goes out of
Valley.

Imperial Valley cotton seed cake
will be used to fatten the dairy cattle
of Denmark. An initial shipment of
$500 tons of the product of valley oil
mills is olading at Los Angeles har-
Dor for shipment to Copenhagen.
The Swedish freighter Buenos Aires
operated by a Stockholm firm which
arrived at San Pedro a few days ago
with pig iron, silicon and other cargo
from Antwerp from Southern Califor-
MIA manufacturers, is to carry the oil
cake back with her as part of a large
miscellaneous cargo.
1t required three full freight trains
to transport the oil cake from Calexi,
co, the originating point to the dock
side at San Pedro. This consignment,
the largest ever sent out in one ship
ment is but the first of others that
are to be made as soon as the cake
can be supplied.
Short staple cotton from the valley
amounting to 1900 bales is another
foreign shipment from the valley this
week. The cotton was purchased in
the open market by japanese brokers,
for shipment to textile mills at Yo-
kohama and will be used in making
cotton cloth of the commoner grades.
1t will go to Japan in the steamer
Hisu Maru, one of the big modern
freighters built by the japanese gov
ernment during the war for the trans
portation of munitions and now en-
gagged in the more peaceful trades.

TULSA, Okla, June Ex-Governor

Of the race riot here today. He sum-
moned Judge w. B. Williams Of the
Superior court and said:
This farce has gone far enough.

I The governor announced that. he.
would lift martial law in the city this
afternoon. A part of the out of town
national guard have already left but
Adjutant General Barrett and 500
trained soldiers are still in charge and
will remain although acting under the
civil authorities.
Definite plans for the rebuilding of
The home of thousands of negroes rem
dered destitute by the burning of their
quarters during the riots are being
worked out today. The business men
of Tulsa have pledged the governor to
erect as many houses as are needed
within tn shortest time possible and
to restore the property of the negroes
to their original state and value as
far as is practicable.
The number of dead in the riot is
still uncertain owing to the fact that
no comprehensive survey of the burned
district can be had until the debris and
masses of ashes and smoldering heaps
cool enough to permit examination.
A public subscription of $500,000 is
being taken up for the relief of the
negroes rendered homeless and desti-
tute by the riots. Tn citizens commit
tee in charge of affairs have employed
so members of the American Legion to
police the town.

Governor Signs Beal Bill
Providing for Survey of
Eastern Boundary Which
May Take in Arizona City.

SACRAMENTO, June 3.-The may
Of California and of the Imperial Val
ley may be changed. The governor has
signed the Beal bill which provides
that the surveyor general must make
survey of the eastern boundary of TIL
state, along what is now the eastern
line of Imperial county in an effort
to determine just where the state line
lies between Arizona and California.
1t is believed by the experts who
have studied the situation and made
examination of the old maps and rec
Ords of various grants and looked up
the original surveys, are of the opinion
that Assemblyman Beal's measure will
annex some new territory, which will
take in about half of the town of
Yuma, Ariz., placing all that portion
of the Arizona city west of the center
line of Main street in Imperial county.
Of course such showing by the
survey would be holly contested by
Arizona and the case would have to go
to the Supreme court of the United
States and take its place among the
historical controversies like that
waged by Texas and Oklahoma few
weeks ago.
Governor Stephens also signed a
number of county government bills,
one of which affects Imperial county
making changes in salaries and fees
of some of the officers.
Senator Inman's bills providing for
the extension of the. state capitol
building were also signed by the gov
ernor. One bill reappropriates $780,
600 which was voted by the legisla-
ture two years ago to aid construction
but which became inadequate because
of the increased cost of building. Sen
ate bill $50 adds 100000 by appro-
priation, which, with the amount reap
proprated, it is believed will assist in
the selling of the bonds.
In addition to signing these bills,
Governor Stephens also announced he
would sign senate bill 432, appropriate
ing $75, 900 for the new state printing
plant in Sacramento. !.
The state printing plant now is in
an old frame structure on one corner
of the capitol grounds. Governor
Stephens already had signed the bill
passed by previous legislature APP
propriating 100000 for the plant.
The two bills will make available a
total of $4,000 for site and building.
The city of Sacramento, which donated
the two square blocks for the site of
the new capitol extension buildings, is
cooperating in the purchase of the
new location for the printing plant

CRIMINALS STAND
POOR SHOW HERE

Imperial county ranks sixth in the
number of criminals committed to the
state prison during the two years end
ed June 80, 1921, and seventh in the
number OF convictions obtained in the
criminal actions in the Superior court
for the same period, according to a
report just received by the district at
torney's staff here.
During the two-year period " GRIM
mails were sent to prison, 80 Of whom
were convicted after being tried in the
local courts. The others were sem
fenced upon pleading guilty.
The showing is considered an cxcep-
tionally good one and speaks well for
the ability Of the prosecutors in hand
ling their cases after crimes have been
committed.
