exodus of tens of thousands of
Sicilians from their homes, molten
streams of lava from the volcano
still advanced upon helpless towns
and deserted hamlets today. Ash
es and cinders still fell at great
distances from the mountain. One
of the main streams of steaming,
whitening lava, moving with dee
reasing speed around Mount Etna s
foothills suddenly shot out. q frey
branch which now is advancing upon
the hamlet of Lavinaro. Destruc-
ton Of the little township seems

SIGNING OF SILL HAS
WIDE AFFECT ON VALLEY

Signing of the anti-cropping law
by Governor Richardson, will have
far-reaehing effect on the Japan
csc ranchers of Imperial Valley, ac-
cording to Attorney Wilbur w. Ran
dall, counsel for the japanese AS
sociation of Imperial County, when
informed today that the bill had
been signed. Mr.. Randall explain
ed that the bill is not retroactive,
that is, it does not effect leases
already in force, but will affect
future leases. Approximately 10000
acres are farmed at present by
japanese in Imperial Valley, all of
which is conducted under crop shar-
ing arrangements, it being unlawful
for Japanese to own or lease land.
In Mr.. Randall's opinion, if test
eases of the law are made, he be-
lieves il will be found to be un-
constitutional. He contends that it
prohibits aliens, who are admissible
into this country, from making a
a living, and does not think the law
will be upheld by the supreme
court.
The governor s veto of the for
eign language school bill will have
little affect in this county as there
are no japanese schools conducted
here.
