BOULDER CANYON
HEARING JAN. 70

A Washington dispatch this morn
ing says: The Colorado river COM
mission will meet here between Janu.
ary 20 and 26 to discuss the problems
of the seven states directly concerned
in the development of the stream.
Representative of California, Ari-
zona, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Wyo-
ming and Montana on the commits
sion, appointed by the governors, will
be summoned to the capital for the
meeting, Mr.. Hoover announced today
After the data already available in
Washington has been assembled, and
the problems have been outlined, an
other meeting will be held later some,
where in the southwest.
The irrigation service has advocated
that the first construction should be :
dam costing about $40,C00,000, which
would give an initial amount of up
wards of 100000 primary horsepower
1t is figured that this would increase
the irrigated acreage in Nevada, Ari
zona, California and Mexico by 1900,
600 acres and would give such floot
control as would protect the Imperia
Valley from destruction by a bread il
the river banks.

Whereabouts of Missing El
Centre Business Man
Learned When Bank Here
Is Telegraphed for Funds

All Spiesman, or Shpisman, former
employe of Varney Brothers and Co.,
whose mysterious disappearance from
Los Angeles almost week ago caused
statewide search to be made for him
by his wife, mother and brothers, has
been located.
Spiesman, as he is best known here,
is in Fresno, in the San Joaquin val
ley, where he is the guest of the Sc
quota hotel. Nothing has been learn
ed of why he went to Fresno without
notifying his wife or any member of
his family, or his reasons for keeping
his movements quiet.
He was located in an indirect man
ner, when the hotel manager in Fres-
no telegraphed banks here to learn if
his checks were all right. Chief of
Police Matlock was notified in turn
and he informed Hyman Shpisman,
his brother, who is the proprietor of
a drug store in Imperial. The happy
information was then sent to Spies.
mans wife and mother, Los Angeles
In the meantime Marcus Shpisman,
another brother, who is engaged in
business in Los Angeles, had started
on hurry trip to San Diego, to view
the body of the man found floating in
the Tia Juana river after he had been
murdered and robbed.
From the general decription of the
body it was believed that it might be
that of Spiesman.
From the time he arrived in Los An
geles Spiesman's movements were
veiled in mystery. He did, however
leave a note with a friend that he was
going to San Francisco. A thorough
investigation was made and no trace
Of him going away on any train or
by automobile was found.
The members of Spiesman's family
were frantic with grief and anxiety
over his unexplained disappearance
until this morning, when the glad
news was received that he was alive
and in Fresno.

BOXING MATCH
OUi Arena to Stage Big TOUn
Card at Sunday Nights Fis-

By BILLY SILVER
Especial to The Press)

MEXICALI, Dec. 81. Jimmy
Barry, for over year touted as the
champion light-heavyweight of the
Pacific coast, will get the acid test
of his career when he steps through
the ropes to meet Lee Anderson, col
ored, and claimant of the champion
ship of the world, in 20-round bout
at the Owl aren't in this city tomorrow
night, January 1.
Both men are in tip-top shape and
both claim they will dispense the
sleep powder early in the milling
Anderson is looked upon as the great
est colored battler the ring has pro.
duced since the days of Joe Walcott
and Joe Cans. Anderson feels so con-
fident of victory that he has asked to
meet Kid Savage a week later on win
ner-take basis.
Imperial Valley fight fans will get
their first glimpse of Barry when he
climbs in the ring Sunday night.
Barry is a Mexican by birth and will
have a large following when he faces
the colored champion. Jimmy is
much younger man and his manager
"Pinkie" Weygand, predicts an easy
victory for his protege. 81 am going
to take Barry east as soon as we lick
Anderson and will issue a challengC
to the best light t-heavyweight boxing
for Tex Rickard," said Weyward to-
day.
Champion Anderson is also making
his first visit here and will be given a
great welcome by the fans. The col
ored man is built like race-horse
and is a few pounds lighter than
Barry. Anderson's shoulders are as
wide as a roller top desk and his arms
are exceedingly large for his size. An
derson can deliver terrific punch
and, according to his manager, Ben f.
Dobert, can hit harder than Barry.
On the other hand, Barry's followers
claim the white boy hits the heaviest
punch and they look for the youngster
to knock out the champion inside OF
fifteen rounds.
Promoter Joe Flores is to be con-
graduated for his excellent program
and it is predicted that the Owl arena
will be crowded to its capacity early
in the evening. The doors will open
at 6:3O and squad of special police
will see that the aisles are not block
Al and that every holder of reserv'
tiNlet will be seated without trouble
The preliminary will be staged at
exactly S:15, and the main event
should answer the bell at 10 o'clock
George Blake of Los Angeles will ref
cree the Barry Anderson contest.

Tells About Merchandise
Taxes and Gives Forms
for Making Your Returns

To acquaint the taxpaying public
with the requirements of the new Fed
eral revenue act, and particularly as
regards income tax and the liability
for the filing of income tax returns,
John p. Garter, cpllector FIR the
Sixth Internal Revenue district, has
been furnishing The Press with a Sc
ries Of articles Of an informative ma
ture on the working of the new law.
This is the third article of the series:
In response to numerous inquiries,
taxpayers are advised that certain
taxes, among them the so-called 'nui-
sance" and luxury" taxes, are repeal
ed, effective January l, 1922, by the
revenue act of 1921.
Patrons of soda-water fountains,
ice cream parlors and similar places
of business" no longer are required to
pay the tax of l cent for each 10 cents
or fraction thereof on the amount eX-
pended for sodas, sundaes, cor SIM
liar articles of food or drink" The
small boy may rejoice in the fact tha-
an ice cream cone doesn't cost an eX-
ira penny. The tax imposed by the
revenue act of 1921 is on beverages
and the constituent parts thereof" and
is paid by the manufacturer.
The tax on the transportation Of
freight and passengers is repealed, eff
fective January /, 1922, also the taZ
paid by the purchaser on amounts paid
for mems and women's wearing ap-
parel (shoes, hats, caps, neckwear,
shirts, hose, etc., in excess of speci-
fled price.

imburse himself, by agreement with
the purchaser, by quoting the selling
price and tax in separate and exact
lamounts, or by stating to the purchas
er in advance of the sale what por-
ton of the quoted price represents tht
price charged for the article. and wha'

STOCKMEN ARE
TO ORGANIZE IN
So. CALIFORNIA
Efforts Being Made to Get All
Breeders Together for Bene-
fit of Industry

The breeding of pure bred live
stock in Southern California is assum-
ing proportions of such magnitude and
general importance that those en-
gagged in this work have found it adN
visable to effect an organization en-
bracing those interested in promoting
the various breeds of cattle, hogs,
horses and sheep.
These stockmen have organized un-
der the name of the Southern Califor-
MIA Pure Bred Livestock Association,
with H. Michel of the Santa Monica
Dairy Company of Venice, president;
George w. Thomas, dairyman and
BREEDER of Jersey cattle of Arlington
vice president, and w. w. Van Pelt,
secretary of the Southern California
fair at Riverside, secretary treasurer
The board of directors is composed
of the following: Horses, Percherons
T. L. Hall, Perris; Clydesdale, John
Troup, Santa Barbara; cattle, Hol.
stems, r. N. Clapp, Nuevo; Jerseys,
George w. Thomas, Arlington; Guern.
seys, Walter P. Dupee, Riverside;

At recent meeting of the direc-
tors held in Los Angeles it was decid-
ed to hold general meeting of stock
men in Los Angeles on Saturday, Jan
uary IA, at noon, at which time a
program of work for the coming year
will be presented and the machinery
for carrying on this work discussed
and arranged for.
The introduction, development and
protection of pure bred stock is a
problem of paramount Importance in
Southern California. There is a linz
itless field open to this development;
climate, soil and every agricultural
condition lends itself to the encourage
ment of this industry. The promot-
ers of this organization have in mind
a definite system of work to remove
as far as possible some of the many
bumps in this road, to place the pure
bred animal on every farm and ranch
and to encourage better breeding con
ditions generally.
AS this is move in the interest of
every stockman, large membership
in this organization is urged and the
secretary is conducting campaign
in which every breeder, who is now a
member, is urging his brother breeder
| in his special line to come in.

Applications for Renewals
and Original Permi t s
Must Be Filled in Accord
ance Wit h Instructions
Here Given

There are 10000 motorcar drivers
in Imperial Valley who are interested
in renewing their car licenses for the
year 1922. To aid these drivers and
owners in securing their renewals
without bother and delay, the Auto
mobile Club Of Southern California
has issued the following authorita-
tive statement on the method of pro-
cedure:
every automobile owner should
read and then follow the instructions
carefully SO that there will be no delay
in getting the plates on the car in or
der to conform with the law. This
i"dope" is given out officially by the
touring bureau of the Automobile
Club of Southern California.
"Your 1921 certificate of regis
tration properly signed by the regis
tered and legal owner of the car will
constitute the application of a state
license for the operation Of a motor
vehicle. -
Bring this to the Automobile Club,
| if you are member, or to the motor
vehicle department otherwise, with q
check on a California bank ,postoffice
money order or currency aor the
amount of the fee which is based, as
in the past, on forty cents per horse
power of the car. To determine the
amount of the fee multiply the desig-
mated horsepower by forty cents.
"Be sure that your 1921 certificate
of registration is legible, for other
wise it will have to be sent to Sacra-
mento for vertification before the ap-
plication for new plates can be han
died. No certificate of registration
bearing marks of alterations or era
sures ,,lll be accepted.
"If you have changed your place of
residence, make a note of same and
the new address on slip of paper
which must be pinned to the certifi-
cate. Do not write the new address
on the face of the certificate.
"If you have lost your 1921 certifi-
cate, apply Immediately for dupli-
cate. Applications for duplicate GER
tificates can be secured at any Auto
Club office If you have no certifi-
cate, secure one at once and avoid de-
lay and confusion later.
Remember in buying new ca.
that 1921 licenses do not expire until
February /. In applying for a new
license prior to that date, you will bt
required to pay fee for the las
quarter of 1921. In cases of trans
fer of ownership, be sure the proper
signatures are on the certificate-th'
one of the buyer, the seller and the le
gal owner.
where a company or corporation l.
given as the legal owner be sure tha
the certificate is countersigned b.
some official of the company.
"Visiting motorists from othe
states will also be handled by the Au
tomobile Club in securing license
and nonresident permits. At the ex
piration of the nonresident permit
visitors are required to ta& out
California license and in ordeA to oh
tain same visitors must sur&nde
their home state certificate, LINUS
plates and windshield sticker.
