on the Colorado river by filing for per-
mission to develop hydroelectric power
at Boulder Creek Canyon, and also at
Pyramid Canyon, just below the Boul-
der Creek site. The filing calls for
the developing of 100000 hydroelec-
trio horsepower. and is the final ap-
plication in the Southern California
Edison Company's plan for the har-
Messing of the Colorado river for the
generation of peak load of 1850 900
horsepower and an average annual load
of 100000 horsepower.

ernment for permission to build n the
Colorado river series of girant,c
dams, the. largest of which would Be at
Marble Canyon, where 1,240,OOO horse
power would be generated.
The filings stated that 1000 ,OO)
horsepower would be created at the
dams at BouldeN Greek Canyo., AM;
at Pyramid Canyon. AS the city of
Los Angeles also has made filings at

The plans of the Edison company
call for dam 410 feet high in Boul-

ber of Commerce today by Joseph H..

Mr.. Defrees especially urged that
local business men get behind the plan
proposed by the Conference for the
An'ayors to organize local Emergency
Committees in their communities. He
asked them to offer the mayors imme-
date assistance in order that the ma
chinery of organization shall be speed

said Mr.. Defrees, has a responsibility
to the nation to organize to meet this

so as to make their help effective.
Business" said Mr.. Defrees has a
very great responsibility III the situa.

and the managers of the various teams
are getting ready to put their teams
in the field on October %, the day of

over $1,000 for the purpose of hiring
players. Mexicali has also raised a
good amount, and it is thought that
they should be able to hire good play
ers with that amount of money. Braw-
ley, Calipatria and Imperial are going
to depend more upon local players, and
it is thought that with the material

PRODUCERS BUY
BEA||l! A! CREAMERY

The Imperial Valley Milk Producers
association have purchased and on Oc-
tober Is will take over the creamery
business of the Brawley Creamery and
Cold Storage Company, which is retir-
ing from the milk business. The
Brawley company was formerly owned
and managed by Frank Beal and had
most of the creamery business of the
Brawley district.
The Milk Producers have purchased
industrial property in Brawley imme-
diately north of the Brawley creamery
for future use, and have also leased
the plant formerly owned by Mr.. Beal
which will be used until conditions
force the construction of a new build
ing.
The investment was made by the
association because of the belief that
the section around Brawley is to be-
come more and more a dairy produc-
ing center. The Brawley plant will be
used to care for the dairy product in
that vicinity, some of which was al
ready being handled by the associa.
tion.
The. new move on the part of the
Milk Producers gives evidence of the
prosperity of the organization. The
volume Of. business the present yea,
has been greatly in excess of last
year, despite the well known fact
that the number of dairy cows in the
valley is smaller. Economics have
been introduced from year to year ii
/ the association operations, and eacl
saving has resulted in increased prom
iums to the members.
Manager Paris will be busy fol
some time introducing system at tn
Brawley plant and in stimulatin,
dairymen in that section to becom
members of he association. His fiel,
men are already visiting the forme
patrons of the Brawley creamery an
interesting them in cooperative but
termaking. under which the dairyme
secure all the profits of the. bushes

JOINT TRIAL IN
CASE IS LIKELY

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 12.-Mrs.
Madalynne Connor Obenchain and Ar
thur Coutenay Burch probably will
have to stand trial together for the
murder of ]. Belton Kennedy, wealthy
young broker who was killed from am
bush at Madalynn's side one night
last August.
Superior Court Judge Reeve indi.
Gated this yesterday during the argu
ments for separate trials. Attorneys
for the defendants contended that each
had a right to be tried Individually so
that neither would prejudice the 9TH
er's case.
81 see no reason why l should not
follow the ruling of the Legislature
that defendants must be tried jointly
unless otherwise ordered by the court" "
said the Judge. 81 see no occasion for
my exercise of the discretionary power
granted the court" But he granted a
continuance on the argument.
Mrs. Obenchain's counsel asked for
a continuance until tomorrow morn
ing. saying he wanted time to file an
affidavit Showing this case is differ
ent from ordinaryecriminal cases and
therefore the court should order sep
aate trial."
1t is reported that this affidavit will
contain the asserted confession which
local newspaper man declares Burch
made to him, a confession. which i'm.
plicates Mrs. Obenchain. Mrs. Oben.
chains attorneys, including her for.
mer husband, Ralpr r. Obenchain, con-
tend this confession is not proper evi
dence against her, and that the jury
trying her should not be permitted tt
hear it.
The court declared that he did no
see how this could change matters.
Dist.-Atty. Woolwine opposed tht
motion on the grounds of econom!
and of fair play to other prisoners
waiting trial.

BOULDER CREEK
CONFERENCE TO
Be HELD OCT. 27
Irrigation District Officials and
Government Authorities to-
Meet in Washington to Settle
Plans.

The conference of the Boulder Dam
project. which for a time was sched-
uled to be held in San Diego, is to be
held in Washington as originally
planned and is fixed for October 27,
according to telegram received from
Acting Secretary of the Interior Fin
ney by Secretary Frank McIvor, of
the Irrigation District this morning.
The telegram was the final one of a
number interchanged by Secretary
McIvor and the officials of the de-
partment at Washington in an effort
to clear up the misunderstanding as
to the time and place of the hearing.
Secretary Fall is still absent from
Washington, bet it is now definitely
settled that the hearing will be at
the capital and not in this valley or
at San Diego.
Secretary McIvor is also in receipt
OF a letter from A. p. Davis, director
of the Reclamation Service in confir-
nation of telegram of thanks sent
the District for the $4,000 appropria-
tion last week for the expense of fer
ther investigation and work on the
Boulder Creek dam site.
In this letter Director Davis states
that the work will be started immed-
lately as soon as the men, who were
previously engaged on the job can be
gathered by telegraph and as the ma
terial and machinery is on the ground
itshould be pushed to completion with
a great deal of speed. Secretary Nc
Ivor also informed Director Davis
that any additional sums needed Tor
the prosecution Of the work would be
Furnished by the district, thus obviat-
ing the necessity of asking Los. Ange-
les, or the Coachella Valley or any
other community for assistance.
A new contract is being forwarded
Washington alt osct which provide
prior rights for the people of the I'm
perial District in the water storage
and control of the Colorado river in
return for the furnishing of the funds
for all Of the preliminary work. With
this last contribution the Irrigation
District has now furnished 100000
for the payment of expenses of the
preliminary work at Boulder Creek
and it is not anticipated that any fur
ther considerable sum will be needed.

The annual meeting of the Imper-
'Iial Valley Vegetable and Melon Grow
ers' association was held in Calipatria
on Monday last and was attended by a
larger number of delegates and men,
bers than in the history of the organ
ization. 1t was a most enthusiastic
and profitable meeting for all the
growers in the valley.
President JJ. A. O'Neill called the
meeting to order and gave Drief out
line or historical sketch for the bene-
fit of the new members present after
which the financial report was read,
showing that, after handling shook,
seed, etc. in wholesale lots for the
benefit of the members, paying for
automobiles, office equipment and
shed installation and performing all
the functions as distributor, the as
sociation stands free from debt with a
substantial balance in the bank. The
report carried a certificate that it
was audited by B. E. Bishop, public
accountant of Calexico. .4
1t was set forth by President ONeill
and the idea was unanimously ap-
proved by the members that the con-
tinued success of the association would
depend largely upon the upbuilding of
substantial surplus to be used for
acquiring packing sheds and other per-
manent equipment in theGname of the
association and the issuance 6f a prop

members that many Of. thel expenses
of conducting the business would be
no greater for 1000 members thanifor

was decided to appoint membership
