StOrk and Press
In Exciting
Race

The big Boss was
mighty busy parsonage last
night and it is doubtful if any
man ever more earnestly wish
ed the power of being in two
places at one time than w. G.
Costello, business manager of
the Imperial Valley Press.
In addition to the responsible
ity of getting out the big Farm
Bureau edition of today, one
section of which went to press
last night, the business mai
ager became aware of the fact
that a big, husky bird called
"Old Doc Stork'' was flapping
his wings in tho vicinity Of
the Costello domicile at 434
He'll street.
The scene of the stork's ac-
tivities was transferred to the
Ell Centric hospital and then
ensued a race to see/ which
would win the race-the afore-
said bird or the Goss Printing
Press. The big Boss hust-
led back and forth every few
minutes between the hospital
and the Press office, now and
then taking a kick at the Of
flee cat or cussing the bowling
wind outside.
Through the long hours of the
early tught thd unusual race
went on and at last, about
IL o'clock the old bird gave a
Joyous quack a nd copped the
honors by introducing Miss Cos
tello to Ell Centre and the rest
Of the world.
Mother and baby are doing
well but a new problem con-
fronts Costello today, who is
trying to figure out whether
the new arrival is going to be
a society editor, a valley farm
ecette or the president wife.

.C.FARM BUREAU

PROTEST ON RATE

That the Imperial County Farm
Bureau is not going to let the rail-
roads, intended brickbat' land
heavily upon the local lettuce in
dustry was shown today when copy
of a telegram sent by Walter II.
Sprague, its attorney, to the Inter
state Commerce commission was re-
ceived here.

sOnable paragraph G., rule 200-C,

tectivc- Tariff No. 2, /. G. G. No.
l, effective December 24,' Sprague,
in accordance with instructions from
the local Farm Bureau, has started
the fight against this new movement
by the railroads to establish com
pulsory standard refrigeration.
In view of the fact that, to all
intents and purposes, this proposed
paragraph covers the same ruling
as that now in suspension until
Marchl0, following the hearing be-
/ fore the Interstate Commerce COM
missioner in Los Angeles last month,
the protest is being made. Hs
eff allowed to become effect

protest, ''it will impose upon ship
, pers the unfair, unreasonable, dis.
I~criminatory and confiscatory pur-
poses and effects of paragraph IL

1t is hoped by the local shippers
that this protest will hold up the
Objectionable paragraph, and that
the benefits of the suspension of
standard refrigeration requirements
until March 10 can be had. as this
period will allow the bulk of the let
tuce shipments to go east with top
icing.
This matter means thousands of
dollars to the shippers, and incident-
ally much to the business men az

HAIL MACDONALD
LABOR HEAD, AS
NEW MINISTER
by United Press Leased Wire

LONDON, Dec. s." Three cheers
for the new prime minister
An immense crowd shouted this
greeting to Ramsay Macdonald,
leader of the Labor party, when he
arrived in London this afternoon
from Wales.
Thousands were gathered at the
railway station to cheer the man
largely responsible for Labor's tre-
mendous gain in political power as
result of the preliminary elections
Thursday. - mev
Prime Minister Baldwin will con
suit his colleagues of the Conserva-
tive party during this weekend to
determine when he shall present his
resignation as chief of the govern
ment.
Resignation of the Baldwin cabi-
net was considered practically cer-
tain.
The exact time the Conservative
government will step out, however,
Has uOt Decu
Lord Stamford Ham, secretary to
the king, visitde Downing street at
II 80 a. m., presumably to arrange
for, visit by Baldwin to his maj
csty.
Conservative chieftains, headed
by the younger Lord Cave, conferred
with Baldwin earlier in the day.
Ten minutes before noon the La
borite political headquarters issued
a statement declaring the party had
elected 1913 members of the new par
Lament.
Unprecedented Situation
Labor chieftains will meet Mon
day to discuss the situation.
1t was indicated the standing of
the new parliament will be approx
imately as follows:
Conservatives, 259.
Labor, 1913.
Liberals, 14S.
Others, 2.
Total, COZ.
Some Conservative leaders advo-
Gated an attempt to carry on with
out majority in the house of com
mons, trusting to an arrangement
with fhe Liberals whereby each
group would refrain from introduc-
ing contentious legislation.
The situation in the new parlia-
ment will be unprecedented in Brit
ish history. Neither of three par
ties-Conservatives, Liberals and
Laborites-will have a majority.
Political leaders and the public
seem at loss to know how a solu-
tion may be reached.

grant the president extraordinary
powers, making him practically a
dictator, to quc!l the rebellion.
Mexico City continued calm and
trains departed for the United Sta

Gales also offered to organize
and lead an army of 100000 Agra

rebels if the president would sane
