H SUBSIDY L

. EPORTS from Washington that
i reach this newspaper are to the
effect that the republican leaders
in congress are getting panicky over
the reports they hear from the
congressional districts about the
unpopularity of the administration
and particularly the attempt of
President Harding to force through
an annual gift to the ship owners
of fifty million dollars. We are
informed that the attempt on the
part of a group of shipping mag
mates to get away with the peoples
hree-billion-dollar steel fleet is not
meeting with enthusiasm. A num-
Der of republican congressman have
heard from home and are going to
have to vote against the bill, no
matter how indignant the president
may become. The bill is not
helped nor the tottering admins
tration aided by the fact that Lask-
er of the shipping board has per-
mitted the ships to sell whiskey to
passengers-with fully equipped
bars, union bartenders, mirrors,
fancy bottles and all of the old
time trimmings. 1t is now up to
Harding to decide whether it shall
continue. 1t is not a question as
to whether or not we should have
passed a prohibition law; it is a
question whether the government is
willing to set the example of doing
a thing which it ]prosecutes as a
criminal act when committed by an
individual. If the president sets
this example, then all people lose
all respect for all law and the reign
Of law is at an end"
The fancy bar attachment to the
government operated ships had no
doubt some influence in making the
ship subsidy bill unpopular with
the people, and the feeble defense
Of the administration head of the
board, that such sale of booze was
in order to make any
money in government operated
ships, did not add much to the de-
Tense. But aside from that most
people are opposed to paying addi-
tional taxes to go into the pockets
of the great corporations who own
these ships and hope to add the
government owned ships to their
holdings at a price that would cover
the merest fraction of the cost Of
building them. Three billion dol
lars worth of ships for a fifth of
one billion ought to be a good
enough bargain for them without
an annual subsidy of fifty billions
to run them with.

Elks' FrOlic is Now
Open on Main, to BE
Great Fun All Week

Because of slight wreck ON the
Southern Pacific near Cotton, Snapp
Brothers Shows, which were scheduled
to open here last night for the Elks
Frolic, did not reach this city until 6
O clock, with the result that it was
impossible to erect the equipment and
put on show last night. Instead of
attempting to do so, the shows band
gave Il concert at the corner of Fifth
and Main streets and announcement
was made that the Frolic would posi-
lively open tonight.
Today force of men has been al
work erecting the numerous amuse,
ment devices carried by the show and
getting everything ship-shape for to-
night s opening. The show is located
ON the lot opposite the courthouse on
the north side of Main street, one of
the most convenient locations for such
an affair.
Members of the Elks lodge are firm
in their opinion that the charity fund
of the lodge, which will be the recip-
lent of the profits of the Frolc, will
be sufficiently increased to enable
them to take care of any needy cases
which are reported to them.

GEORGE CAMPBELL
SHOOTS AT THIEF

For the second time in two weeks,
burglars attempted to rob the store of
George l.. Campbell at Seeley late sun
day night but were frightened away
by the proprietor, who was sleeping in
the store.
Mr.. Campbell was awakened by
the noise the burglar made i'll trying
the door knob and seizing his gun,
fired through the door. The burglar
made good his escape and evidently
was not hit by the bullet, no signs of
blood being found near the store.
Campbell said the footprints of the in
truder showed he had been standing
right in line with the course of the
bullet.
About two weeks ago Campbell sur
prised a burglar ransacking his store
when he Unexpectedly returned after
supper. The thief escaped in ear
which confederates had ready near the
store, and investigation showed nearly
$500 worth Of goods packed on the
floor, ready to be hauled away.
Campbell is waiting for the third at
tempt, and says when it takes place
somebody is going to go away a mighty
sick man. Although defeated for sheriff
in the primary election, he thinks he
is getting good experience defending
his property.

Horne Denies Bond
Buyers Don't Want
Court House Issue

o. G. Horne, cashier of the Security
Commercial and Savings Bank today
furnished the Press with the following
interview on the court house bond
question:
'"The so-called opinion that the
court house bonds were turned down
by the attorneys who examined the
proceedings because of any slump in
the bond market is perfectly ridiculous
and without any foundation. The at
torneys have not definitely notified the
bond purchasers that they cannot rend
or an opinion and it is believed any
irregularities can be corrected.
'"The Security Bank of FL Centre
and its associates in Los Angeles
bought the court house bonds in good
faith and paid very substantial pre-
MUM for the issue. To say that the
purchasers would attempt to evade pay
ment for the bonds because of Il
change in the bond market is a reflec-
ton upon the good faith and integrity
Of the parties to the purchase.
"The facts are that the bonds were
all sold to definite customers within
three weeks after sale by the county,
and every effort has been made to have
the bonds delivered. The bond market
is stronger today than when the issue
was contracted for.
"'The court house bonds were not
voted according to law, some Ia of the
SO precincts not being posted with
notices of election. No responsible
bond attorney would give a favorable
opinion on an issue so voted.'

Bodies of 30 Lost
in Ship Wreck Are
Found, Gomez Held
By Special Staff Correspondent

CALEXICO, Nov. 2l.-As meager
details filter through concerning the
catastrophe at La Bomba Saturday
night, when the steamer TOpolObampo
was sunk, and in which somewhere be-
tween so and 90 lives were lost, in
formation is given out which seems to
establish the fact that the steamer was
overloaded and that no provisions. had
been made in the way of rescue devices
in the event of a happening, such as
that which occurred.
Latest reports received this morning
state that about 80 bodies had teen re-
covered, but that a great number
would never be found, inasmuch as
the reccding tide would carry many to
sea, while an additional number would
no doubt have been devoured by
sharks which infest the gulf
The total loss will never be known,
for of the large list of passengers, only
"a had been registered on the logs of
the ship, while there were from 20 to
30 additional, whose names are not reg
istered.
The ship was of 65 tons register, and
the passenger allotment according to
the laws of Mexico, is one passenger
for each gross ton. In other words,
the passenger list exceeded the capaci-
ty of the boat fully two to one.
The accident happened so close to
shore that, had provision been made,
it would have been easily possible for
the greater part of the people to have
been rescued, it is said.
Captain Gomez. and the owner of the
ship, Liebra, are under arrest by the
Federal Government of Mexico, and
will be held for examination pending
the fixing of the blame for the disaster.

BY Special Staff Correspondent

tALENlCO, Nov. 2l.-Ramon San
tez, taxi driver, and Antonio Viaz,

Dick Newton, American, here today
when arraigned in a preliminary hear
ing today. They were arrested by gov
ernment officials of the Northern Dis
trict Of Lower California Yesterday

Jail at Mexicali, pending positive iden-
tification by Dan McKimmon who was
robbed and wounded by two Mexicans

The accused men were found hiding
ont at ranch house west of Mexicali,
and were questioned rather closely by
government police, but have not admit
ted their connection with the murder
and robbery.
II is just to state that the Mexican
officials began an immediate search
for the assaiants once n good deserip-
tiou of the men had been given them,
and no possible clue as to their where
abouts overlooked during the search.
Mexican Consul Martinez states that

limit should they be identified as the
guilty parties, and that no mercy will
be shown. They will be given extreme
punishment.
Mr.. Martinez states that every local
official of the Mexican government is
truly sorry that such a thing should
have happened in,view OF the friendly
feeling existing at the present moment,
and that efforts are being made to in
crease this mutual understanding, and
that by all means such happenings as
this murder and robbery of Americans
must be and would be stamped out, and
that every resource ut the command of
the government would be used to pre-
vent future happenings of like char

CalexicO Citizens
Protest Street Tax

CALEXICO, Nov. PA mass meet
ing of about 100 tax payers and prop
ertv owners of Calexico, was held ut
Harris hall last night, when objections
to charges made for street grading
were aired, and protests made against
the charges as excessive.
The meeting was called to order by

ON Seventh street, who has been the
leader in the movement protesting the
charges made for the work.
Forming n permanent organization
for the meeting, Mr.. Miller was selected
to serve as chairman, after which Mr..
Fox told of the reason for the meeting.
Pat Cooney was chief speaker at the
| meeting, and stated his views decisive
| y, not mincing words i'll presenting his
argument, which in substance was that
he believed somewhere along the line,
l the property owners had been cheated,
but that it was not possible to estab-
| lish Just how and by whom, but that
he for one was determined to find the
answer.
City Engineer Blackburn, in charge
| of the building operations in the laying
| Of sidewalks and cmbing, and street
grading, explained the system of max
| ing charges for work against the prop
| erty, and stated that he had wired Muir
! ray Loop, San Diego, who made the fig
| ures, to be present at this meeting or
in time for the board meeting tonight,
when the grievances would be heard
| by the board of trustees.
| City Manager Steintorf and City At
torney Ginder were present, and made
| brief statements, in which both offered
TO render any aid possible.
A committee of five was appointed by
the chair TO investigate in behalf of
the taxpayer, to learn by actual view
| ing of the work whether or not the
| work had been done satisfactorily, to
ascertain the method employed in APP
| portioning the costs for grading streets,
| to examine the cost sheets, and III
every way possible secure such data as
will permit of an intelligent report of
what the people have to face in meet
ing the expenses of the word done, and
to ascertain whether the charges made
are reasonable or unreasonable.
Don c. Bitler, FL Centre attorney,
was ut the meeting, representing Mr..
Fox.
Dozens of protests have been filed
with the city clerk, and about 80 addi-
tional names were added last night
