VACATION DAYS

Teachers and pupils in the city schools
are glad of the approaching vacation
months as the hot weather comes ON.
Preparations for closing exercises are
under way and plans for the rest season
are being considered. Some of the
teachers will go to summer schools,
others will travel about a bit; some will
find rest in change Of work by going
into offices or stores or elsewhere in
business.
School superintendents are always
glad to have their teachers spend a part
of the vacation time in building UP
themselves professionally. One super
intcndent said recently that the teacher
who does not attend summer school
at frequent intervals is certain to get
into ruts and lose her enthusiasm and
freshness. He will encourage all of his
teachers to attend professional lectures
this year, during q part of their vaca
tiOn.

WOMEN IN PUBLIC SERVICE

For some years wOmen's clubs have
urged the appointment and election of
women on boards of education, library
boards, state institutions and commits
sions dealing with women and children
1t is noted that in Imperial county this
idea has made but little headway, part
ly, it may be because of the summer
vacation period which sends so large
q number of the women to outside
points, but mainly because Imperial val
ley men have not looked with favor on
women as public officials, it is said.
In looking over reports on the school
election of this spring, it was noted
that but two of the high schools in the
county have women on their boards.
Mrs. Grace Ferrill was reelected on the
CaiexicO board and Mrs. r. w. Hoover
is a member of the Holtville high school
board.

POLICE FOR RIOTS

CHICAGO, May 16.--"Police terror
. CHICAGO, May 15.--"P Police terror
ims' to discredit organized labor was
charged today by Edward Nockles, see
retary of the Chicago Federation Of
Labor in denouncing wholesale arrests
of union heads.
Nockles declared police and prosecu-
tors were working hand in glove with
the open shop advocates.
Framed evidence by highly paid de-
tectivcs attempting to disrupt labor
led to the arrest of "scores Of innocent
labor leaders, Nockles declared in an
interview with the United Press.
''The citizens committee to enforce
the Lands award has $3,000,000 with
which to carry on its fight" Nockles
declared.
"Money is no object to them-their
slush fund will be replenished as rapid
ly as it is depleted.
"The sole aim of the committee is
to discredit organized labor and break
up the Chicago Federation of Labor. y
"Wholesale arrests of labor heads is
merely an alibi for the Chicago crime
wave, which the police are powerless
to stop and with which labor heads have
no connection.
"When two policemen were killed
under mysterious circumstances, ard
three buildings dynamited, labor Off
cials were arrested by the dozen and
held in jail without bail. There is no
question but 'Big Tim" Murphy,
"Con" Shea and Fred Nader now
stand accused of murder had no knOwl-
edge of the outbreak.
Nockles said Chicago labor would
continue to fight the Lands award in
