smoothness and efficiency of the edu-
cational machinery that has been Sc

beginning active practice and it looks
as if the High will develop a strong
eleven this season. The teaching
staff is outlining a set of programs to
be given each Friday by the High
school. These programs are given
for both their educational and enter
tainment features, but mainly to de-
velop the morale of the school and
the proper spirit that has marked the
steady advances made in the past by
the city schools of Winslov. These
programs are open to parents of stu
dents and the general public.
Miss Belle Oakley who will have
charge of one of the second grade

that if parents will see that their

regularly there will be very little for
the Truant Officer to do. They ask
for the complete cooperation of all
concerned in this matter

ed upon correct ethics as defined by
the Rotarian. Mr.. Todd said that a
man in business first owed a duty to
himself and family in the matter of
competent support and next to his
employees along the same lines. He
also said that no man should take
any business that did not net a pro-
fit and afford him and his business a
reasonable surplus in order that he
and the business might survive dur
ing temporary depressiOns. He stat
ed too that if business was taken in
any other manner that he was dam
aging the entire circle he touched
and also doing his competitor great
wrong. Mr.. Todd further stated that
he did not think a man should work
for less than he thought he could
earn, due to the above applied prin-
ciples Mr.. O'Dowd talk was on
boys work at Tucson. He told
the attempt of the Rotary club to
help the boys in his city. He said
that an investigation proved the Boy
Scouts at Tucson were doing thi
work splendidly among all boys of
the better-class families. However
that the need existed among boys of
the lower class and the youth of
Mexican ancestry, and that the club
had built swimming pool for thes
and had helped in other ways.
In the fight for the next conference
there were two entries namely, AL
buquerque, New Mexico, and Las
Vegas, New Mexico Representative
G. P. Anderson, who is connected
with the Albuquerque Morning Jour
nal, put up real argument for his
city upon it's merits for accommoda-
ton, and after his talk one would
judge that the Duke City had ample
accommodations to take care of the
whole population of New Mexico.
However Representative Donald
Stuart of Las Vegas in his plea for
the City of Meadows, described the
glorious sunshine as being the acm
of perfection, and that after the set
ting of the sun, that the moon-shine
in his city was not only unexcelled,
but unapprOached Las Vegas won
hands down.
President T. M. Quebedeaux and
Editor Sam w. Proctor represents 4
the local club. Both came back with
glowing descriptions of the meeting
and little more "sold", if possible
on the Rotary Plan President Tom
said, 81 have belonged to many clubs,
all the way from country clubs

! contact with as good natured a
bunch of serious-minded business
men as is to be found in the typica

STATE FAIR AT PHOENIX

Preparations for the Industrial ex-
hibit at the state fair at Phoenix
next November is definitely under
way with the drawing of ground
plans of the exhibit buildings as the
first step in the allotment of space
to exhibitors. Manufacturing and
distributing concerns of the state
which wish to have displays will be
furnished copies of the plans so that
they may indicate preference for
booths.
Definite plans for the exhibit build
ing also have been completed The
main structure will be the brick
edifice just inside the main entrance
to the fair grounds here, known for
merly as the educational building. 1t
is 100 by 40 feet in size. A tempor-
ary addition of framework and can
vas, well rooted, will be constructed
along the north side and east end
Of the main structure, increasing the
dimensions to 60 by 1873 feet. From
the Industrial exhibit visitors may
pass through directly to the Dairy
exhibit, in the dairy building just to
the rear.
Most of the booths for the exhibit
will have a frontage of nine feet,
The number of booths has not yet
been finally annouced but it is known
there will be no more than enough
to meet the demand for space.

of MurdererS
of Form as ero

Judge M. w. Conkling has re-
ceived notice from j. A. Johnston,
warden of the San Quentin state
prison, that the appeals entered in
the cases of Mariana Cazares and
Alvino Mendez, convicted of the
murder of Mike Fornasero, and sen
fenced to be hanged next month

This is the usual procedure where
appeals are taken and pending the
decision of the appellate court, Caz-
ares and Mendez will remain in the
state prison.
Postponement of the execution of
the men means that Lawrence
Campbell, convicted of the murder
of Leslie Nichols, will be hanged

STEEL OFFICIALS
WANT TO RETAIN
TWELVE HR. DAY
Judge Gary Says Is Pct
Increase to Follow
Shorter Day
BY United Press Leased Wire

NEW YORK, May 25.-Retention
of the IL hour day in the steel in
dustry was favored in a report
adopted unanimously at the annual
meeting of the American Iron and
Steel Institute here today.
The report, submitted by Judge
Ebert H. Gary as chairman of a
special investigating committee, sug-
gested by President Harding, de-
clared l5 per cent increase in
prices would follow adoption of a
shorter day.
The increased cost must be hand
ed down to the consumers, Judge
Gary pointed out, if the eight hour
day is followed. -
Agitation for reduced hours does
not come from the workers them
selves, he added. The ~ hour day
worked no additional physical or
moral hardships upon them because
of frequent rest periods.
There is not sufficient labor to
supply three shifts day, the report
added, if the present rate of produc
tion is to be maintained.
Worlds Outlook Good
Judge Gary in his address SAID
that the worlds general economic
and political outlook is good, since
conservative forces are everywhere
at work.
From a recent two months tour
of the Mediterranean countries he
returned with two definite convic-
tions: That the masses of people of
Europe are desperately tired of dis
sension, strife and warefare; and,
that they are working hard and liv-
ing frugally to restore everything
to its normal state.
Judge Gary became exhausted
toward the end of his speech and
was forced to leave the hall.
Charles M. Schwab continued
reading of the speech.
High prices charged by labor,
which he gave as one of the most
serious checks on progress, he be-
lievcs will be reduced by public
opinion.

BRAWLEY POLICE
FORCE TO QUIT

Rumors prevalent in FL Centre
today, that the Brawley police
force resigned last night and that
the sheriff S office was called upon
70 protect the northern city, were
denied at the sheriff's office today.
1t was stated, however, that the
resignation of the members of the
police department were rendered,
but they were persuaded to stay on
the job until the end of the week,
at which time they will quit.
1t has been known for some time
that affairs in Brawley police cir
cles were unsatisfactory and it is
believed the recent suit of C. c..
Barker, against Chief F. c. Kemp,
alleging false Imprisonment and
malicious persecution, was decid-
ing factor in bringing matters to
q head. The suit is still pending.
Including Chief Kemp, the Braw-
ley police force consists of four of

TROOPS MAY
GO TO CHINA
BY RAY G.. MARSHALL
United Press Staff Correspondent

PEKING, May 25.-7.50 p, m.-
American troops in Manila are soon
70 be rushed to Tientsin. it was re
|iahlv stated here tonight.
The American legation refuses
either to confirm or deny the report.
The forces were demanded in .
resolution forwarded to the state
department. by the American cham
ber of commerce. It is presumed
they would be used either actively
or passively in attempting to induce
the Chinese bandits to release their
American prisoners, seized nearly
three weeks ago after the wreck of
the Shanghai-Peking express.
There are now approximately
800 troops at Tientsin, including
800 marines.
In Peking the British, French and
Japanese legation guards number
about the same. 1t is doubtful
however, how many of these forces
could be used since they now are as
sisting in guarding the Peking Muk
den railway under the protocol of
1900.

$500 MONTH IS
GIVEN BY BOARD

Many Towns Donate to
$4,000 Fund to Push

Call COnfere nee of
Many Bodies to Get
Action

The Imperial Irrigation District
yesterday was honored with a visit
from six members of the Coachella
Valley water district who came here
to confer with the Imperial Irriga
tion District board on cooperation
in the matter of disseminating pub
licity on the Boulder Canyon Dam
and the All American Canal.
The board also took action and
Joined the Boulder Dam Association
recently formed at Fullerton and
pledged an amount of $500 month
to be spent in publicity purposes in
advancing the interests of the Swing
Johnson bill. This amount has been
matched by the city of Los Angeles,
besides smaller amounts from other
cities in Southern California, such
as Santa Ana, Anaheim, Fullerton,
San Diego and others, bringing the
total monthly amount pledged to
81 900.
New Car.ll Survey
The board passed resolution to
enter into a contract with the
Charles Frisbie Company of Los An
gelcs to make new survey for a
site of the proposed All-American
Canal. This to be completed within
80 days. 1t is estimated that the
actual field work will take 80 DAYS
and the balance of the. time will be
spent in preparing the maps and
specifications. This survey will
start at a point near Bull s heading,
which is six miles above the ~Laguna
Dam, and continue to point near
the foot of the Sand Hills. The av-
crage elevation of this new survey
will be 20 feet higher than the old
All-American Canal survey. This
will mean material saving in the
construction of the canal in that
there will be fewer cuts made and
i'll addition will give higher fall
which will generate considerably
more horsepower.
An application has been made to
the war department for the right to
construct new weir at Hanlon s
heading. This will facilitate mater
tally in the distribution of water.
This hearing will be in Los Angeles
at IL O'Clock a. III. on June .. 1t
is not thought that there will be any
objection raised.
A conference has been called to
have the Associated Chambers of
Commerce, the Farm Bureau, the In
ter-Post Council and representatives
from the Los Angeles Chamber of
Commerce meet with the Imperial
Irrigation District board. The pur-
pose is to get correlated action on
the best means of arousing public
sentiment in favor of the Swing
Johnson Bill.

Although more than a week has
passed since the city council made
known it's willingness to provide a
wading pool and park facilities on
the east side of town, providing the
school board will deed to the city.
property which the former owns on
the east side, no word has been
given by the board that it is will
ing to make the transfer of proper
ty.
Announcement that the city
would be glad to build a wading
pool was .oyously received by the
east side children according to the
teachers in the East Side school, and
they are living each day in hopes
that their Anticipation will be real
lied.
City Paid for Paving
A former city official advised the
Press this morning that the city has
paid for the paving III front of the
Mckinley and Lincoln schools, the
school board not having sufficient
funds to do so at the time. The
sum involved is approximately
$4,000, he said, and as the school
board cannot hope to realize that
amount on the land they hold, it
would seem no more than right that
the land be decided to the city.
Discussion of the subject with
prominent men in the city has
brought forth the unanimous verdict
that some provision should be made
for the east side children, who are
entitled 10 the same summer com
forts enjoyed by the children in the
west end. AS the city dads, like
Barkis, 'are willing, it would
seem that the only holdup in
the plan is occasioned by the school
board, and it is hoped by those in
terestcd that the board will take
action ON the matter in the very
near future.

COMMUNISTS
CAUSE MORE
RUHR GRIEF
By United Press Leased Wire

BERLIN, May 25.-Hordes of
communists from the interior of
Germany are slipping through the
French lines and entering Gelsen-
kirchen in large numbers, according
to dispatches from that city today.
The communists still control parts
of the town. They hold the police
station, partly burned, and their
armed guards are to beNeen in other
strategic positions, ready and eager
for more fighting. The municipal
authorities, latest advicesN said, are
still functioning, however, and are
engaged i'll a praley with the
''rcds' to determine whether a
joint police force, representing all
factions, may ae formed.
German and Russian communists
are reported to have met at Bochum
in the Ruhr Valley several days
ago, and to have planned the upris-
ing at a conference with Karl Ra-
dek, bolshevik organizer. The trou-
BILE started when strikers began en-
tering food stores and announcing
that the supplies were confiscated
for the hungry.
There was some resistance, which
led to fighting, and in a short time
the town was the scene of battle.
Citizens Fight Communists
The communists sent squads
through the streetss, conducting
their offensive in systematic
manner. There was no organized
resistance at first as the "safety
police" had all been deported by
the French army of occupation.
French troops watched the riOting
without attempting to interfere.
Later citizens organized and fought
back. Today the armed groups were
watching each other, ready to re-
sumo hostiltics at moment s not

District miners have issued an ul,
timatum for wage increases by to-
night at Hamm.
