W|LH|TE ROAD
is APPROVED

The FL Centre Chamber of Com
merce last night elected J. c. Tate as
director to fill the vacancy caused by
the withdrawal of Sam Dunaway. Due
to the demands made or his time by
his interest in the Imperial Oil and
Gypsum Company, Mr.. Dunaway felt
that he could not give sufficient time
to the work of the Chamber and he
therefore resigned. Mr.. Tate assumes
the duties of the appointment at
once.
The report of George f. Bowles,
chairman of the good roads commit
tee of the Chamber was heard and
laid on tho table after a vote of
thanks had been extended to him for
the work done. Despite the fact that
the report was averse 10 future build
ing Of White roads, the discussion
following the report brought out the
fact that the White specifications
for future paving in the city Of Fl
Centro had been materially changed
so that a strictly first class pave
ment would be laid.
The attention of the directors was
called to the fact that the county had
asked for White specifications for
the building of four miles of road
north of Holtville and also the fact
that the state had chosen Wilhite
pavement for the 10-mile stretch soon
to be laid out of Holtville
The result was that Mr.. Bowles
himself made a motion endorsing the
decision of the City Council for their
selection of White pavement. The
motion was seconded by Attorney
Ross Rickcox and was unanimously
carried.
A committee was appointed TO con-
slider ways and means for raising El
Centro's share of the deficit to be
paid Yuma county for the construc-
ton of her highways. Some few weeks
ago it was agreed that outside coun-
ties would reimburse Yuma county
for the difference in the selling price
and the par value Of her road bonds.
Twenty-four hundred dollars was
apportioned TO Imperial county, as fol- +
lows: Calexieo, $500; Holtville,
500; Brawley, S400; El Centro, $500.

Commander E. H. De- Lany, a retired naval officer, was present when the crippled soldier was gruffly turned awny by the ticket seller. DeLany appealed to the manager of the park and the latter explained that a clause in the insurance contract against accidents made it impossible to admit any legless or armless persons to the tank.

ACTS TO ADJUST
SOLDIER CLAIMS
Legion Officer Assumes Job of
Adjusting Compensation.

A determined effort to facilitate action
on compensation claims of disabled sol
diers is being made by r. c. jenkins,
service officer of the Marion County
council of the American Legion. In or
der to accomplish this Mr.. jenkins is
putting into effect a system that has
proven successful in Illinois.
This plan calls for the establishment
in every community Of an office to han
die the great amount Of paper work in
cidental to all claims for compensation
A personal canvass will also be made
by members Of the legion to locate for
mer service men whose claims have not
been settled and to get them to the office
to have their claims taken up.
Many disabled soldiers either have
failed to file claims or have become dis
couraged at petty delays and have ceased
TO push them. 1t is the intention of Mr.
Jenkins to take care of the rights Of
these men and see that their claims are
presented properly.
The Marion county council will hold a
meeting at the Chamber of Commerce
Thursday evening. Dinner Will be served
at 6 30 O'Clock, after which business will
be transacted. Special entertainment
features have been provided.

BRITISH MINERS
DEMANDS FIRM
Refuse to Abandon Plea to
Pool Mine Profits.

LONDON, April 21.-Striking British
coal miners, standing alone in their de-
mand for practical naturalization of in
dustry, refused today to abandon the
issue.
When union executives from all parts
of the Kingdom met here a majority
were under instruction to continue the
fight for a pooling of mining profits and
a national wage board.
There was just a hint that the de-
mand for pooling might be altered in
some particulars, making 1t less BADLY
scheme for naturalization.
Govern ment officers, their attention CEN
tered on German reparations, left the
miners alone to debate their questions.
The gathering was watched with great
interest, however.
Despite lack Of strike funds, men in
the mining districts are firm in their
refusal to work. Welsh and Scottish dis
tricts, Midlands, Kent and Fifeshire, have
returned big majorities for a continuance
of naturalization demands. Other unions
In those districts have voted funds to
help the miners families.
Industries continue to shut DOWN for
lack Of fuel and municipal officers have
drawn Up regulations for the handling Of
the coal reserve built up somewhat by
shipments from America.
