SEND WIRE OF
REMONSTRANCE
TO WASHINGTON

AS the result of rumor that
enemies of the Boulder Dam bill are
planning on using the recent grand
jury criticisms against the Irrigation
District here as means of fighting
the measure, a strong telegram was
sent to Washington today. Mem
bers of the Imperial County Farm
Bureau and American Legion of I'M
perial Valley concurred in the wire
which was addressed to Addison
Smith, chairman of arid lands com
mittee.
AS the grand jury's charges of
extravaganza and mishandling of ir-
rigation funds did not mention in
any way the subject of Boulder Dam
or the various expenses incurred in
sending delegates to Washington to
support it, it is felt that unfair tac-
ties are being resorted to and con-
tortion of the real facts planned
that will work harm for the Swing
johnson bill
The telegram follows in full:
r Understand that the opposition
Colorado River. program have in
Washington now and expect to pre-
sent to your body a report made by
Imperial County Grand Jury on ex,
penditures of funds which includes
Imperial Irrigation District. Should
they use this report as an argument
against the Colorado River legisla-
tion it would only confirm our state
ment as to their underhanded meth
DDS. Whether true or not the busi.
ness methods used by county Off
cials has not bearing on the neees.

HERTZ IS FOUND
NOT GUILTY IN
SPANKING CASE

Not guilty, was the verdict rend
cred by Il jury this morning in
Judge Mayfield s court, in the ease
of f. A. Herth, charged with cruelty
to his four year old son.
Herth was arrested several weeks
ago on complaint of neighbors, who
were arounsed by the cries of the
youngster. He admitted in court to-
day that he had spanked the boy
and the lath with which he had per
formed the operation was introduc-
ed as evidence.
Mrs. Herth corroborated the testi-
mony of her husband in that he had
,panked the child after the latter
had refused to behave when warned
several times. The spanking was
administered on 4 conspicuous,
,hough not dangerous portion of the
youngsters anatomy, and accord
ng to Hcrth, while it undoubtedly
hurt the boy, as he intended it
should, it did not iniure him.
Don G. Bitter, attorney for Herth,
introduced Policeman Jimmy Apple
Satc, NHo 'hitSbCu AA'i'" 90 "iA -
pert witness in the matter OF spank
ing. He refused to admit that
Herth had used unnecessary mea-
sures in disciplining the youngster,
and held to the opinion that the
spanking was one of the good old
fashioned sort, which leading men of
the country have undergone at vari-
ous times.
The jury hearing the evidence was
composed of five men and one wo-
man, the latter being Mrs. Alice
Kenyon, who was chosen foreman.
