Mr.. HUGHES TO HEAD
DELEGATION TO CHILE
Country's Ablest Diplomats to At
tend Pan-American Confer
ence- Next March.

The United States delegation to the
fifth panAmerican conference. to be
held in Santiago, Chile. next March,
will be composed of some OF the coun-
try's ablest diplomats. probably in
cluding Secretary Hughes, according
to the Associated Press.
Not only has the United States pro-
posed far-reaching considerable of
pan American commercial relations
during the Santiago meeting, but
Chile has suggested discussion of a
limitation of armament in the west
ern hemisphere. and Uruguay has in
dicated her intention of presenting q
plan for american league of
nations
Should Mr. Hughes find it possible
to head the delegation, it is believed
he will call at several Latin American
capitals during his trip to and from
Santiago.
He expects to visit only Brazil when
he goes to the Rio exposition this
fall. but it is known that he has for
some time had in mind more ex
tended journey through South and
Central America.
BY going to the Santiago confer
ence the Secretary would follow a
precedent, set by Elihu Root. when, as
Secretary of State he attended the
third pan-American conference. held
in Rio in 1906. AT the first confer
ence. held In Washington, Secretary
James G. Blaine presided, but the
United, States was represented in the
second and fourth conferences by less
cr officials.

Conservative Investment.

The many recent failures, bad fail,

many cases, of brokerage firms in
Wall street. should serve as lesson
to people of small means who desire
to turn their small piles into huge
fortunes.
Honest men warn the people against
indiscriminate investing, urge them
to use their money in legitimate and
safe stock and bonds. But because
conservative investment yields only
an ordinary return, men are reluctant.
A plunge and then the reward and
the reward is usually the deluge.

LET'S STAY WITH THE MAIN ISSUE

raving vital interest in the solution of Imperial Val
ley problems the Press regrets the local tendency TO allow
the Boulder dam question to become confused or to embrace
much Necessarily there angles to so great
an enterprise There sharp differences OF OPINION
these honest disagreeens methods and
of the of colored by selflsh INTERESTS
there private interests involved IN pro-
iect Boulder dam magnitude. But most of these mper
ia Valley not need to become mixed in 10 the eX
tent that mix in phases of this question which are
those who are concerning themselves with such phases OF
the matter from whatever motive whether honest or dis
honest all of this purpose whatever and mere
ly tends to make problem more difficult.
For those who listened to his remarks for the purpose
of finding enlightenment and not merely to get conma-
ton of their theories Secretary Hoover furnished food
for serious thought when he here in E Cento And 1t
was this great campaign of education will be nece
sarv to accept for the country the
burden of financing the Boulder dam project Mr. Hoover
called attention the fact that majority Of the member
shin of congress reside east of the Mississippi river and
unacquained with and largely usypathetc toward west
ern development enterprises All of these must either
be made over must be shown what project like the
Boulder dam scheme to the country This must be
done bv patient instruction, perhaps extending
number of years When that is the situation upon the
authority of the best informed that we have and the
man who understands best, would it not be matter or
prudence avoid quarres among ourselves and to stay out
controversial matters which really do not touch the main
namely that of getting the Boulder dam financed and built?
The other things that of people show such per-
sistent disposition to into only side issues. ASA
rule the determination of them will not be left to us at all
but will worked by national authorities in harmony
with whatever basis is resolved upon Let then stay with
the question and make strong pull all together for
the Boulder dam its merits Let mobilize our whole
effort endeavor convince the people who have this
issue in their keeping that the building of Boulder dam is
matter of wise and far sighted craftsmanship.

HAY VALUABLE CROP

Hay was California s most valuable
single crop in 1920 and alfalfa has
had a great deal to do with this
leadership, according to II. NJ. Butter
field, of the University of California
college of agriculture. The alfalfa
crop amounted about one-third more
than that of Kansas, California s near
est competition.
Indirectly alfalfa has had an impor-
tant bearing upon the dairy and swine
industry for, with but few exceptions,
those counties which are large prOduc-
ers of alfalfa lead in dairy and swine
production.
Persons interested in alfalfa culture
are invited to send to the University
of California college Of agriculture at
Berk eley for circular No. 81 on alfalfa,
or to enroll for the correspondence
course on "Alfalfa Culture.

A TEST OF RADICAL1SM
e g g g g g 9 g g g g g

Chicago Tribune: "Big Bill" Hay
wood, /. w. w. leader, under peniten-
tiary sentence in the United States,
ball jumper, and fugitive from justice,
is reported in Moscow dispatch to
have been granted concessions by the
soviet Russian government to operate
coal mines, iron works, and auxiliary
factories in Russia. The situation. Of
fers a wonderful opportunity to test
the good faith and radicalism of the
American I. w. w. and those who have
been associated with them in Red
propaganda and anarchistic activities
| in this country.
Undoubtedly Haywood will want
to give that section of the proletariat
which he is presumed to represent an
opportunity to work out their theories
Of anti-capitalism and universal bro
therhood in his new coal mines and iron
works. Incidentally he will need the
labor of the workmen trained in the eff
ficient methods of American prOduc'
ton. He win give them all chance
in his cOmmunistic Utopia.
There are a great many radical
miners and iron workers in this conn-
try. There are great many who pro-
fess to believe, in communism. There
are great many who advocated the
overthrow of the American government
I and the American social system by
force. There are a great many who
have loudly. proclaimed that this gov;
ernment and system is the worst apd
most oppressive in the world.
Here is their opportunity. Many
thousands are out of work and facing
strikes and distress. There is nothing
worth while in this tyrannical govern
ment to keep them in the United States.
Haywood and soviet Russia beckon
them To freedom, ease/and luxury. If
they bklieve in the theories they have
advocated; if they are anything more
than brawlers and trouble makers,
they will accept the opportunity.
How many will go: 'We<venture to
say less than one-half of one per cent.
Sovietism is n fine thing for radicals
to shout about, but a most--anpleasant
thing for them to embrace. r -

ASPARAGUS CROP
LATEST IN YEARS

Sacramento Bee: The present season
is the latest asparagus season in ter
years. This is according to Sales Man
ager C. p Hoar of the California Vege
table Union, who recently completed. q
tour of investigation of the delta re
gions.
The cold weather and continuous
rain have held the grass" back SO
that up to Wednesday of this week
only $50 boxes had been sent East
Hoar says, whereas under normal con
ditiOns it would be moving in carloads
by express at this time. In 1921 the
first carload left Sacramento March IL,
but at this time the prospect for car
is somewhat remote.
All that is required now to ripen the
"grass' is warm weather.
Hoar expects the asparagus to find
O fine market ipasmuch as it will hit
the east around Easter, which always
IS good asparagus selling period. In
event of warm weather in New Jersey
the crop Of that state will be strong
competitor, but if cold weather holds
but until late, California asparagus will
have clear field.
