To the Honorable Judge of the
District Court of the United States,

Guy Urquhart, of Ell Centre,
County of Imperial, State of Cali
fornia, in said District, represents
that on the 21st day of October,
1922, he was duly adjudged bank
rupt, under the act of Congress re-
lating to Bankruptcy, and has fully
complied with all the requirements
of said Acts, and the orders of the
Court touching on bankruptcy.
Wherefore, he prays that he be
discharged from all debts provable
against his estate, except such
debts as are excepted by law from
such discharge.

LA TOILETTE WILL CONCENTRATE
COMING CAMPAIGN IN Is WHEAT
STATES WHERE DISTRESS WORST

He cites official records to show,
for example that 40 percent of the
South Dakota farmers are bank
rupt 42 percent of those in Colora-
do; 30 percent in North Dakota; 81
percent in Wyoming, and G. percent
in Montana.
Aid, then, for the farmer, com.
bined with railroad legislation, TO
assist in this aid, would appear to
be the foremost plank in the pro-
gram of principles which LA Fol
lette will lay down at the meeting
of ProgreSsives in Cleveland, July
4, on which independents may run
under his banner in all states.
His drive in the wheat belt will
be personal and persistent, his
friends say, and, figuring ON the
protest vote that he will receive in
addition to his own enthusiastic fol
lowing, they contend that he can
and will throw the ultimate choice
of president into Congress-a field
he dominates.

JAPANESE ARE
KILLING SELVES
OVER new LAW
BY FRANK HEDGES
(Unitea Press Staff CorreSnondent

TOXIC, June 4.--One after an.
other japanese are killing them
selves in various parts of the conn
try because of the exclusion clause
in the American immigration bill.
Six have committed suicide by
hanging or drowning or the histor-
lie hari kari, this week, leaving let
ters protesting against the measure.
10 understand this, one must con
slider the japanese character and
the way the people of Nippon look
upon things. In this first place the
japanese regard their exclusion from
the United States as a personal af-
front to each individual rather than
as a matter for national resentment.
Each feels he has been sighted, told
You are not good enough to as
sociate with me. -
When q Japanese is insulted his
highest retaliation is to commit sui
eide. He says you have insulted
me aud | cannot live in the same
world with YOU. | will not kill YOU
for that would make me rs low as
you. | will go to my forefathers. -
Suicide follows.
The epidemic of suicides therefore
is the personal answer of each vic
tim to what he feels a personal af-
front. alNES

Much Anxiety
Over Marsdens

The absence of DIR. and Mrs. c. s.
Marsden and family of FL Centre,
which has caused many anxious in
quiries, is no doubt due TO an auto
mobile accident which occurred in or
near San Diego on Sunday as the
family was motoring TO La Jolla.
The exact nature of the accident
in which DIR. Marsden was the only
person injured is only rumored and
more complete information has not
been received here as far as the
Press can ascertain. As the story
reached the Press office, DIR. Mars
den was apparently hurt when a
jack, which he attempted to use in
raising wheel for some minor re-
pair, slipped, knocked him to the
ground. Whether DIR. Marsden is in
a San Diego hospital at present or
whether his injury was only slight
enough to delay the return of the
party is matter of conjecture at
present.

Saving System
Proves Success

the average account per child is
about $50, which is an exceptional
record for the school year. That
real interest is taken by the pOten-
tial millionaires is shown by small
Lee Hamilton of the Harding school
whose bank book shows more than
$40 10 his credit. Every penny,
nickel or dime that Lees fingers
took hold Of in the form of allow
ance, gifts, or payment for odd Jobs
of any kind was boarded until Lee
could proudly have the amount en-
tered in his pass book. He even
inveigled his mother into providing
his lunch at home so that his reg
ular lunch money could go into the
bank, though doing so meant that
the youngster trudged many blocks
from school to his home in the noon
heat prior to the close of school.
No doubt many other children
made similar sacrifices and if only
these some day reap the reward of
the saving habit in the form Of col
Iege educations or nest-eggs for a
start in business at the end of their
school years the work will have been
worth the time and labor of the
grown-ups, one bank official deelar-
ed today.
That the work will undoubtedly
be carried on again next fall in the
schools was that statement made by
V. L. Thompson of the Southern
Trust Company, and A. H. Keller
and William Reed of the First Ma
tional Bank. Robert McGOvney of
the ic-Southwest stated that
their plans were somewhat uncer-
tain in regard to the school work.

Fear Death Attempt
Hints that Leopold would attempt
suicide, today caused Sheriff Peter
NJ. Hoffman to throw double guards
around them.
Every article brought into the
cells where the boys are held is
being examined to prevent delivery
of weapons or poison of any kind.
Two guards are stationed before
each cell Both Leopold and Loeb
expressed a desire to commit suicide
rather than die on the gallows.
81 shudder at the thought of be-
ing executed Leopold said, his
proud air returning after one day
behind prison bars. Il would great

must lose it. y

Loeb, always showing himself the
softer of the two, found more favor
in the eyes of his Jail mates. He
asked for regular prison garb, dis
carding his 5000 suit. He amused
himself during a recreation period
by teaching Il negro boy prisoner
the alphabet.
A striking difference between the
two boys was exhibited at meal
time. Both boys had their meals
sent in from their millionaire homes.
Leopold, occupying "A cell with
Thomas Doherty, robber, ate his
meal in silence. He did not speak
to his cell mate and ate on the
opposite side of the room.

What to Do With
Refugio Is Vital
Question of Hour

If Refugio Caion, II year old
Mexican boy from Mexicali who has
been deported no less than three
times in the last yead for stealing in
this county, is trying to get himself
put in jail for substantial term or
to be placed in a reform school for
a few years, he may win out vet.
Refugio' s latest escapade is the
theft of a new Ford touring ear yes
terday afternoon. The car, which
is the property of H. G. Rinkleib,
9l6 Fourth street, was parked in
front of the Airdomc theater when
Refugio and his II year old com
panion, Adolfo Beltram, also Mexi
can, saw it. They asked no ques-
tions from anyone, but clambered IN
and stepped ON the starter. When
they were next seen, they had reach
ed Calexico with the Ford and were
riding about seemingly without a
care in the world.
The car was taken early in the
afternoon, and when Mr.. Rinkleib
discovered his loss a short time lat
er, he notified the sheriff's office
and with some of the deputies set
off for GaleXico. 1t did not take
long for him to notice the shiny new
Ford with the two small Mexican
boys in the front seat, and without
waiting for any assistance, he ran
to ii and jumping on the running
board took possession without fur
ther ceremony.
The two youths were brought to
the jail here where they are await
ing the punishment to be decreed by
Probation Officer Swanson.
In commenting on Refugio S case
this morning, Mr.. Swanson shook
his head and admitted that it was
the worst vet. ''You see, - Mr..
Swanson said, "this youngster has
been up here so many times and each
time we have threatened the most
terrible punishments to scare him,
so that Wen have to do something
besides take him to the border and
warn him never to come back. The
worst of it is, Refugio always ap-
pears to be very repentant, several
times weeping copious tears when
he was taken to task for his thefts. -
Refugio's last mixup with the
law prior to the affair of Yesterday
afternoon, was the result of thefts
of watches, fountain pens and
other items of jewelry taken here
and at Holtville.
