James Nelson of this city, a mem

consider the advisability of provid-

Mr.. Nelson made it clear that this

no place to sleep and without money
to rent a room. The suggestion was

Recommendations accompanying
the report call for the proper wedg-
ing up of the track, which Freehold

should be replaced with timber.
These recommendations are the
same as submitted some time ago

Repairs to the bridge on North
Eighth street, Highland Park, were
requested in a communication from
the borough clerk, but Freeholder
J. Fred Orpen informed the board
that he had made in investigation
of the condition and found the road
to be on private property. AS the
road has never been dedicated to the
public the freeholders will be un-
able to give any relief in the matter.
Postmaster James A. Morrison

the impossible condition of the Eoad

Mrs. Leroy Holt is reported to be
resting comfortably at her home in

painful injuries, none of which,
however, is believed to be serious.

ing motorists and were taken to
San Diego where they received
medical attention.
Mr.. Holt continued on to Los

business in that city. Mrs. Holt
returned to FL Centre last night,
accompanied by her son James, who

LONDON, Dec. 1S.-Holding the
balance Of power in parliament,
leaders of the Liberal party held a
caucus at the National Liberal club
today to decide upon party policy.
Both Labor and the Conservatives
are making strong, indirect bids for
Liberal support.
Former Premiers II. H. Asquith
and David Lloyd George were
among the speakers and the former
stood for definite rejection of any
alliance, informal or otherwise,
with the Conservatives, for the pur-
pose of excepting Labor out"
The view taken by that veteran
politician is that it would not be
fair plav and would be unconstitu-
tional for the Liberals to do such
a thing.
Asquith also is convinced that
the Liberals can turn out Labor
or the Conservatives, either one
whenever necessary.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1s.-Secre-
tary Of State Hughes, replying TO
Soviet Foreign Minister Tchutche-
rim today, declared there is no rea-
son for negotiations at this time
between the United States and Rus

Hughes made the following state
ment in reply to the Soviet note to
President Coolidge proposing nego.
tiations for an agreement between
the two countries.
"There would seem to be at this
time no reason for negotiations. -
"If the Soviet authorities are
ready to restore the eonfiscated
property of American citizens or
make effective compensation they
can do SO. If the Soviets author;.
iesare read to repeal their de-
cree repudiating Russia s obliga-
tion to this country and appropri-
ately recognize them, they can do
so.
at requires no conference or
negotiation to accomplish the re.
suits which can and should be
achieved at Moscow as evidence of
/, good faith. The American Govern
ment has not incurred liabilities to
I;ussia or repndiated obligations.
Most serious is the continued pro-
paganda to overthrow the institu-
tions of this country.

! iWores, was. pleased with the deci-
sion, but refused to make any com.
ment until he has received Judge
Freeman S written opinion.
An amusing angle of the case,
to those who are familiar with it,
is that the act of 1915, which Judge
Freeman declared to be illegal, was
drawn up by Judge Conkling while
he was attorney for the Irrigation
District. Mr. Horton, the attorney
responsible for having the act de,
elared Illegal, is Judge Conkling S
son-in law, and the latter was the
first person Horton visited upon hi,
return this morning from San Die
90. He admitted that the know!-
edge that he had been able to kick
holes i'll an instrument drawn by as
keen an attorney rs his father-in-
law, increased his satisfaction to no
small extent.
Judge Conkling was not inter
viewed.
Due to the fact that Judge Free
man 8 decision was received here
late yesterday afternoon, it was i'm
possible for the Press to give the de-
cision the prominent space that its
importance would warrant under
normal conditions. Word of the de-
cision reached the Press, at,3 o clock
when the paper was made up to go
to press, and it was necessary TO
provide, space for it by removing
another article and hold up the
press to have it inserted.

Irrigation District to
Appeal Wores Decision

That fhe Imperial Irrigation Dis
trict viii appeal the decision Of
Judge George II. Freeman, announc-
ed Yesterday, IL which he upheld
Chorles r. Worcs in his suit for an
injunction against the district TO
restrain the l@tter from levying a
80 tax rate, was the statement made
today by Ira Aten, president of the
district.
"The decision against us at this
time is very unfortunate, said Mr..
Aten, "and consider it u detri
ment 10 the people of Imperial Val
ley. We cannot operate on q $3.50
tax rate that sum being necessary to
pay the interest on our bonds alone.
In the event that the supreme court, !,
10 which we will appeal, decides
against us, we will have to seek
some other means for operating the
district, possibly by levying, a spe-
Gal assessment. However, if as
Judge Freeman has ruled, the act of
j9l5, is illegal, the sooner the peo-
rle of Imperial Valley know it, the
better.
"Our district cannot operate as
cheaply as irrigation districts in
other parts Ct the state, as We have
the silt of th3 Colorado river to
contend with, as well as the elabor-
ate system of flood control to keep
IN from year to year. The direc-
tors viii await, receipt of Judge
Freeman S written decision, before
any further action is taken. -
