RENEWED PROSPERITY or THE VALLEY

The general conditions Of Imperial Valley are eX
citing the most favorable comment everywhere. lho
this is true it is well to pear IN fniio anu " ~ o
. every possible occasion. - ;, ,
This section of California suffered with all other
agricultural regions during the unpfecenuenIteu e"ae
ton from the high prices of the war agriculture was
dealt staggering body blow from which 1t IS having
the greatest difficulty in recovering Graduaily con
dions here have been improving, but tnis season ivy
are showing a remarkable recuperaton.
II has been the remarkably good fortune OF the
valley that every ind OF it's many products has been
bringing satisfactory price. Its major crops OF ieC-
tuce canaoupes have been the largest ever before
produced. And for both OF these good returns nave
been received by growers Asparagus, a~nt tomatoes,
prapes-all these have contributed to the better1nelI
of the financial condition Of the people Poultry aha
every kind of livestock have added to the general wei
fare Besides there is and has been, as always CON
tinuous stream of checks coming IN to the DAIRY
men of the valley while hay, grain and citrus lrul'
have each added their share
The cotton crop, now growing, promises to be one
of the best yet produced The harvest of this staple
and its sale at good price will add millions to the pro-
ceeds of the valley for the year
The difference between conditions here and in the
onecrop farming sections Of the country is strongly
emphasized 1t is even shown to be emphancay pet pet
ter than in the grain and livestock sections No other
section has many products marketable at all sea-
sons This is proud boast and 1T behooVeS US 10
make the most of it. #
Statements recently given out by the bankers OF
the valley concerning the strong positions OF their m
stituions the best possible proof of our renewed
prosperity. Every bank in Imperial Valley shows
remarkable increase in it's volume of business over last
year and the other years OF the pefoo
since the war Growth of deposits in these institutions
ranges from SO to than LOO per cent. Hundreds
of new accounts are being placed on their books.
These indicate a large, new volume of money. The
bank clearngs of Ell Centro the financial center of
the valley have gone up by leaps and bounds This
registers the general business activity Merchants IN
every line enjoying an encouraging revival of trade.
Tax collections accurate test reported by pub
lie officials to be the best ever known with the small
est number of delinquens in the 20 years history of
the valley. #4a
Everything goes to show that the valley is strik
ing its proper stride. And this is just begin
ming. The brightest days clearly still ahead We
Just emerging from the depression When the other
portions of the country get to going good, Imperial
Valley will be going still better.
The Press is glad to proclaim the situation.
It's sole purpose is to advance in every way the ma
terial and moral development of this great inland en-
pire.

AGAIN N--FRANCE,
GREAT BRIT AIN
BY United Press Leased Wire

PARIS, July 11.-Relations be-
tween France and England were re-
conciled during the recent conversa-.
tions between Premier Herriot and
Prime Minister Macdonald in Eng
land, Herriot said in answer TO in
terpela:iOns in the senate today.
"The program of the committee
of experts headed by General Dawes
of the United States (for settlement
of German reparations) is not per
fect,N the premier admitted, "but
we must remember that the first
duty of the present government was
to restore cordial franco British re-
lations.
This, the premier explained, was
accomplished by his visit to Eng
land. His conversation with Mac
Donald was very cordial, Herriot
said, and resulted in Il reconciliation
Of the Franco British viewpoint to-
ward Germany.

THE NEW IMMIGRATION

AS another immigration year begins with the
immigration law in effect there is natural curiosity
to just what kinds of immigrants coming into the
country.
The elgibles nearly all from western and
northwestern Europe, and mostly of the racial type
called "NorQic" That is what Congress intended in
going back to the of 1890 basis for fixing
national quotas. 1t is mainly since that date that the
"Apnes' and "Mediteraneans' have been coming in
large numbers. This has changed greatly the racial
proportions Of immigrants At the same time the
reduction of quotas to cent of nationals here in
the year chosen has further reduced the quaint
ity.
Here is the result, in plain figures. If all the
quotas filled, shall have the British Isles
ing first, with total of 62,574 nearly half of which
is the separate quota of the Irish Free State. Germ
any comes second, with 52227 then next in order
Sweden, with 9561 Norway with 6453; Poland, with
5982; and Italy with 3845 This especially big
cut for Italy, which for many years before the World
War provided our heaviest immigration.
1t seems unlikely that, with deductions made for
immigrants returning to Europe our net recruits IN
the next 12 months will be much 900. This is
trfle to huge and populous country as the
United States
immigration has been virtually stopped. We are
now digestng the aliens already here and having less
difficulty with the few added.
This means an end to the DID, perennial supply of
labor 1t means, perhaps normal scarcity of
labor in this country. 1t means stimulus to
labor-saving machinery. 1t means permanently high
wages, and many other forms of economic change,
nearly all of which will probably be for the countrys
benefit.

ON ESTATE FOR CHILDREN

Arkansas has the honor of being the first state to
ratfy the child labor amendment to the Constitution.
The victory will not easily in all the state
legislatures, but this is good beginning and its
promptness should have good influence elsewhere
States that are lax in their laws protecting
children will oppose the amendment. On the other
hand, there appears to be growing national sentl-
ment in favor of giving every child better chance at
life and health than he can have under a bad child
labor system and this sentiment will make itself felt
the different state legislatures convene.
Ratification ought to come in very much less time
than the years allotted by the Constitution for
endorsement of a proposed amendment.
What is left Of Madison Square Garden New

cratic convention.

Of Christiansted district which we un-
derstand is due to the consequence Of the
G. ,clOnic disturbance which passed over
the island. We should be thankful, for
when compared with our sister i,ilnds
il could have been worse. NV it SEE MS
as if in spite of the warning we had
previous TO tna occurrence some Of

make any effort or provisions by
which to take care of their proper
ty. In spite Of some being careless
they yet expects to be aided by other
peoples purse and if 50 would think it
very nice. We hear of little damage
here and there but greatest of all is the
loss of life, 50 in our begging for help
let US not deprive the poor and needy
moreover when we profess 0 love the

us remember how the poor of our sister
Islands have suffered We should render
them our assistance and help them to The
