COOPERATING ON

Labor Deputy Cue Tells
of Observations After
Trip to PalO Verde.

Prosperous conditions and a fine
spirit of cooperation as regard
compliance with the Californis
labor laws in the Blythe distric'
was reported t>day by Deputy La
Dor Commissioner Stanley M. Cue,
who has just returned from a visit
to that territory.
A plentiful labor supply and an
excellent cotton crop was found in
the Palo Verde valley by Cue and
the valley is looking forward to Il
very PROSPEROUS year. he reports.
Several big development projects
are underway including the employ
ment Of several hundred men and
the expending of many thousands
of dollars by the city Of Los Ange-
les in Blythe in the Building of it's
new aqteduct from the Colorado
river to Los Angeles. Blythe resi-
dents are preparing for boom
which they say is certain to come
in the near future.
No Labor Infractions
OF the 10000 acres of fine land
in the Palo Verde valley thousands
are planted to cotton, and accord
ing to Deputy Cue, not single
child was found at work in the en-
tire valley during school hours. The
labor officer spent two days inves-
tigating and visited cotton planta-
tions in all parts of the valley.
II shall be pleased to report to
State Labor Commissioner Mathew
son the wonderful cooperation /
found among the cotton growers
and the school authorities, said
Cue TODAY. ''In former wears the
Blvthe district had the reputation
Of being the worst spot in the state
in the matter Of violating the child
labor and school laws. Today it
is one Of the best.
"JudFe w. l.. Beedv, president
