TRIO GOES TO
INSTALL DATE
SHOW AT FAIR

B. A. Hawigan, county horti-
cultural commissioner, f. l.. Garth
waite, farm advisor and j. Il. Coyle,
secretary of the FL Centre Chamber
of Commerce will leave tomorrow
morning for Riverside to make final
arrangements for the Imperial Val
ley date exhibit at the Southern
California fair which opens in Riv-
erside Tuesday.
Garthwaite and Harrigan have
been working on the exhibit all this
week and hope to have one of the
finest displays of dates ever seen
in the state. They will return as
soon as the exhibit is ready, leaving
Secretary Coyle in charge. Mr..
Coyle was selected by the Associ-
ated Chambers of Commerce and
the county supervisors to take
charge of the exhibit, the opinion
being unanimous that he is best
fitted to see that Imperial Valley
gets all the necessary publicity dur
ing the progress of the fair.

MORE PROOF OF
ANTAGONIST IN
HIGHWAY FEUD

More proof of propaganda against
the Yuma HoltviIle-El Centre route
to Los Angeles was given to Secre-
tary Coyle at the Chamber of Cons
merce this morning when G. II.
Clayton of Joplin, Missouri and l..
f. Jaggus and wife of Wichita,
Falls, Texas, registered as visitors.
The tourists told the secretary
they were informed at Phoenix that
the Yuma Holtville road is impas-
sable and were warned to take the
Blythe -Ehrensberg route. Their in
formant told them it is only possi-
bic to get through the sandhills at
night, and then there is great dan
ger of getting stuck. Contrary to
this advice they took the Holtville
route and came through without
any trouble. Clayton had previous
ly made the Blythe route and said
the Holtville route is at least SO
per cent better. The information
given by the tourists was. voluntary
and they strongly resented the prae-
tice of giving false information to
tourists by Phoenix people.
The party encountered only 20
miles of bad road between Wichita
Falls and FL Centric, and stated that
90 per cent of this was east of Has
savanna.

REORGANIZATION
HOPE OF NATION
I.lABOR'S BEL IEF

PORTLAND. Ore, October g.
Americanization is the best and
only cure for individuals suffering
from communism, bolshevism and
the like.
Such was the opinion expressed
today by John l.. Lewis, president
Of the United Mine Workers of
America, who is attending the Am
erican Federation of Labor conven-
ton.
"The American workman, the
most intelligent worker in the
world, will not follow the false
gods of foreign propaganda, -
Lewis said. "Of course there are
red tendencies in some of our
unions, but you will find that this
element is largely confined to for
cign born, mnaturalized workers.
The best way to combat this is to
educate them to point where they
can become citizens and then make
them citizens.

Der of years resident of Imperial

peripl lee and Development compa-

STATE SOLDIERS
DEMOBILIZED IN
OKLAHOMA CITY
Entire State on Verge of
Bankruptcy Is
Charge

OKLAHOMA CITY, October g.
Decentralization of national guards
men ON duty in Oklahoma City
where Governor Walton has con
centrated his martial law battle
against the Ku KluX Klan was an
nounced today by Acting Adjutant
General Charles Barrett.
Dismissal of the troops does not
mean there has been any change
made in the status of state wide
martial law, Barrett said.
Guards will be maintained only
in. those cities where military courts
are in session, it was explained,
Soldiers here were withdrawn dur
ing the night.
Charges that business conditions
throughout Oklahoma were in a
state of chaos and that the state
itself was on the verge of bank
ruptcy rs result of Governor Wal
ton s. administration, were hurled
today by w. ID. McBee, leader of
the legislative. forces seeking to
impeach the executive.
Legislative investigation of the
administration of Governor Walton
on October Is will lead to expose
of spending orgy unequalled in
American history by public Off
cial.' McBee said.
Official summons was issued last
night by McBee for the impeach-
ment meeting of the lower house.

RE-URCE LOCAL
DELEGATION TO
COAST NEE TING

'The article printed in another
column of the Press, telling of the
experience of a party of tourists
who were advised not to take the
Yuma Holtville route in coming to
California, should be an incentive to
every citizen of Ell Centre who can
do so, to be present at the Border
land Association meeting in San Di-
ego Monday said Charles f. Scott,
president of the Chamber of Com
merce.
Mr.. Scott said the Importance of
counteracting this kind of propa-
ganda cannot be overestimated.
This is the time to develop prac-
teal plan for uniting the borderland
cities so that concerted action may
be taken to distribute literature
along the southern transcontinental
highways setting forth road condi-
tions as they really are.
"Other valley cities are going to
send delegations to San Diego and
FL Centre must do its share if the
important work is going to be the
success we. wish to make ait, = he

Hundreds Of Calls
Five automobile loads of detec-
tives armed with sawed-off shot
guns were dispatched to the scene.
While the police were throwing
out a Gordon of Officers, hundreds
of calls from citizens along the line
of fire came to police headquarters.
The two officers had gone to a
station on the Ventura road after
receiving tip from San Francisco
that the Packard touring car, con
tanning load of bonded whiskey
was enroute to Los Angeles.
Earlier reports that one of the
bootleggers was wounded have not
been verified. The number of the
bootleggers' machine was reported
BY several persons as 726-456. The
license was issued i'll Sacramento
and the owner s name is not avail
able here.
Without warning one of the boot
leggers, who is said to be well
known to police and out on $780,,
coo on liquor smuggling charges at
present, fired two shots, probably
fatally wounding Christie. Leaving
his partner in the care of a passing
motorist, Woodside set out i'll pur
suit, pursuing the bootleggers over
Caheunga i>ass, through Hollywood
and down SANTA Monica boulevard
into Los Angeles.

Have You Seen
40 and 8"
Snake?

In addition to running down
noXious weeds and other mat
ters which might handicap the
progress of horticulture in I'm
perial Valley, e. A. Harrigan,
county horticultural commits
sioner, is now trying to locate
gopher snake which escaped
from his office yesterday and
is believed to be somewhere in
the neighborhood has caused
much conservation to the
young ladies in the courthouse
and the quarters used by the
commissioner and others at 645
Main street.
The snake was to have taken
part in the initiation ceremonies
of the Forty and Eight
Thursday night, but not having
any remedy for srake-bite, the
''wrecking crew. did not use
it. Being a member of the
'wrecking crew. Commission
er darrigan was given custody
of the snake. In some manner
it managed to wiggle out of the
jar in which it was placed and
was seen no more. Anyone To-
eating the snake will help ease
the troubled minds of the young
ladies if they remove it far
from the vicinity of Main
street.

Next week the attention of
El Centre will be directed to the
observance of Fire Prevention Week,
in which it wills be joined by
every community in the country. So
important is the necessity for com
batting the fire menace considered
that President Coolidge has taken
time from his many duties to issue
a proclamation calling upon the
citizens of the country to observe
Fire Prevention Week.
This proclamation calls attention
to the enormous loss of life and
property caused by fire in the
United States in 1922. A loss of
$4,000 lives and destruction of
property worth over $50O,OO0O0O in
that wear shows the fire demon to
be gaining strength. In. 1912 the
per capita loss by fire in this coun-
try was $2.16. In 1922 it had grown
to $4.67 and is still increasing. Eng
land s fire loss per capita is ~
