Funds to Be Collected Next
Week to Furnish and
Equip Badly Needed Pub
lie Comfort Station.

A public subscription fund in Ell
Centre for the sole benefit of home
people, women, girls and children Of
this community, is to be taken.
Ell Centre has always been gener-
Gus. Campaigns have been put on by
the dozens for different good causes
and we have always gone over the
top.
Now there is to be an opportunity
to do something for our own town. and
the surrounding community.
Two thousand dollars must be
raised to furnish, equip and operate
the new rest room for women and
children. The city has rented the
Jones room on Sixth street, next door
% the city hall and will pay for the
lights, water and rent. It's up to Ell
Centre citizens to furnish it and put it
to he uses for which it is meant-a
rest room for all women and small
children. 1t will be haven of rest
for the tired shopper from the coun-
try, a place where business girls can
drop in, day or evening, and find a
real honey place to read, enjoy their
lunches, etc. 1t will be convenient for
mothers with small children. In short
it will fill a need long felt in this city.
1t has been planned for several years
and now the dreams of the past are
about to be realized.
For five days next week, starting
Monday, volunteer subscriptions will
be received by the rest room commit
tee through the Imperial Valley Press,
the Ell Centro Progress, and Chamber
of Commerce. A volunteer honor roll
will be published daily by both papers
showing the names and amounts sub
scribed by individuals, business firms
and organizations without solicitation
The committee feels that the import
ance of this Improvement has been
duly recognized for SO long time
that the funds necessary will be pro-
vided by volunteer subscriptions alone
and without the necessity for drive
The committee in charge of the
rest room fund is composed of Mrs.
George Phelps, Mayor Charles F
Sones, and o. B. Tout, president of the
Chamber of Commerce.

HUNS MAY LOSE
RICHEST STAKE
(By Associated Press)

BERLIN, March 16-Upper Silesia
where 100000 Germans and Poles
will vote in a plebiscite on Sunday
March 20, to determine whether that
province shall remain German or be
annexed to Poland, is rich stake
The two nationalities are contending
for territory about 5000 miles in
area or approximately the size of Con-
necticut In one year 30,0O0,O0O tons
of coal were mined in Upper Silesia
and besides, it has vast deposits OF
iron, zinc and lead.
The dispute over its possession
which results from the clause in the
Versailles treaty providing for the
plebiscite has made Upper Silesia one
of the storm centers of Europe. The
situation there for many months has
been tense with both sides heavily
armed and the possibility of civil war
always present. The Inter-Allied coun
Gil of ambassadors repeatedly post
poned the election which even now
seems fraught with grave possibilities
The loss of Upper Silesia would be
serious blow to the industrial
strength of Germany.

Yesterday to Midnight kept
Deputy Collectors on Jump
Taking Care of Returns
Made on Incomes.

With its rush and hustle. it's un-
doubted seriousness and it's touch Of
comedy, the last day for filing income
tax returns before the rs per cent
penalty went into effect closed at mid
night at the internal revenue office es-
tablished at $40 Main street, by Col
lector John P. Carter in charge Of De-
putty Collectors H. w. Riley and Rex
Ragan.
Monday and Tuesday, the last two
days proved to be the busiest of the
weeks that the two deputies have been
in Ell Centre, Mr.. Riley at the South
ern Trust company bank and Mr..
Ragan at the Main street office.
Crowds besieged the offices during
most of the day and evening Of yes
terday.
The throng of taxpayers and those
who came merely to take up the time
of the deputy collectors thinned as
the time passed, but up till midnight
when the office closed, the two depu-
ties had little time forest. ,
Returns filed yesterday bore checks
varying from four figures to l6 cents.
One man claimed the $1,000 additional
exemption allowed married men and
$500 more because Of his tribe, of. IL
youngsters. Another opponentto offrace
suicide got $4,000 exempted for chill
dren. The officers at the internal
revenue office listened to the polite.
the surly, the angry, and the calm
and preserved an unruffled demeanor.t
There was total of 420 returns
made during the day, and the total
amount of tax paid was 81 1,693 .22.sr

BODY
Able Secretary of Associat-
ed Chambers of Commerce
Boosted for President of
Organization as Reward
for Past Services.

Executive Secretary Joseph F. Sey-
mour has sent out to all the notices or
the Seeley Associated Chambers meet,
ing to be held in that place Tuesday
April /. He has invited the newspa
pers, the members of the Farm Bu-
reau directorate and the heads of the
farm centers in accordance with the
wish as authorized by the body.
The most interesting feature of the
Seeley meeting will probably be the
election of officers and primarily 8
president and executive secretary. Dur,
ing the two years of the organization
Mr.. Seymour has done all the detail
part of the work of the organization
without compensation, has practically
run it except at the monthly meetings
and the work has grown so burden
some under his guiding hand, due to
the many angles and duties assumed
by the organization that a paid eXecu,
tive secretary has become a probabil-
ity. 1t was thought that the office
might be combined with that of the
county development agent in the event
the supervisors appoint one and in
that way furnish remuneration il
keeping with the responsibilities anc
requirements.
AS to the election of the president
friends of Mr. Seymour have suggest
cd that it would be a fitting compli-
ment and just reward to make him
present of the Associate Chambers
of Commerce. He has all the neces-
sary qualifications as an executive and
presiding officer, say his friends, anc
is due recognition for his services

Day tournament of roses east-west
football games are played, is being
used as training ground for the Chi
cago National league baseball team.

Especial to The Press)

MEXICALI, March 16-Prelimin-
ary steps toward Obtaining a charter
for the city of Mexicali and the Pueblo
Nuevo, across New River, and to quiet
title to approximately 900 parcels Of
land in the two sections of the town,
have been taken by the formation Of
an association of the owners of all the
property, which the Mexican Supreme
court recently decided was the proper
ty of the heirs and assigns of A. w.
Heber and the Andrade estate.
Under the provisions of the Mexi-
can decision, the lands must be paid
for by the present holders at price
to be decided upon by representatives
of both sides to the controversy as one
which is equitable.
1t is not the intention of the asso-
citation to try to start long legal con-
test to counteract the recent decision
in which DR.. w. T. Heffernan of Cal
exico gained title to the townsite and
other lands in the Northern District
of Lower California, but simply to
have the status of the present holders
of the property settled and a price es-
tabished which they expect to pay for
the lands
At the head of the property owners
organization are some of the most in
fluential citizens of the district.
