PRICE OF BREAD
GOING SKYWARD

According to authentic informa-
tion received by the Imperial Val
ley Press, residents throughout I'm
perial Valley will be digging deep
er into the family pocketbook af-
ter next Monday, for the price of a
loaf of bread.
An increase of two cents in the
retail price will bring the cost of n
loaf up to Is cents. While l3 is
usually considered unluckY, 1T is
certain that the head of the house
hold would rather be paying l3
cents than Is cents, but he evi-
IDENTIFY is not going to have much to
say about it.
"High cost of materials" is the
general reason assigned by bakers
for the increase. 1t is understood
that the new price viii be adopted

LENGTHY ILLNESS

CHINESE LEADER
By RAY G. MARSHALL,
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent


PEKIN, Mar. 12-Dr. Sun Yat
Sen, former president of China, who
suffered for weeks with cancer of
the stomach, died in Canton today.
The Chinese leader had been on
-tc point of death for nearly six
weeks.
Just before he died Sun signed
and gave several. documents TO. the
leaders of the Kuo Wing Tang par.

Sun S Illness.
Long Rebel Career
DIR. Sun Vat Sen s death brought
IN end to one of China s most pic
turesque leaders. Sun was the first
provisional president of China and
had been called the father of his
republic and the George Wash
ington Of the far east. -
He started his first revolution
against the Manchu dynasty in 1895,
after attacking the emperors con
sistently for more than - years
through newspaper articles. 9th
or revolutions followed until sue
cess came in 1911, when the Chin.
csc threw off the Manchu yoke and
elected Sun Vat Sen the republic S
first provisional president. Later,
however, he resigned in favor of
Yuan Shih Kai in order that the
nation should be united under one
strong leader. This proved 10 be
an error, for while Yuan Shih Kai
was strong enough, he had personal
ambitions centered in Il new dynas-
ty. The Pekin government became
n mockery. In 1921, the Chinese
parliament unanimously elected Sun
president of the Chinese republic.
For months he had trouble with the
war lords of the north and finally
realized that his unification schemes
had failed. He moved his head
quarters TO Canton. His main an
tagonist was General Chen Chung
Min, who was appointed southern
vicerov bv thl Pekin government
early in 1921. Min finally broke
down the resistance offered Mt Can
ton and forced Sun to flee the
city.
Sun had prica of 100000 on
his head for practically 20 wears.
DR. Sun Vat Sen was born in
Honolulu in 1869 and was a Chris
tian. He received his medical ed
ucation at Hong Kong college. He
once lived in Greenwich Village,
New York City.

pact without reservations by six

ed of the California Legislature in

today by Assemblyman T. Sidney
Graves of Los Angeles and Frank
G. Weller of Glendale..---z---....ss.. -.
This method of ratifving the
pact, which eliminates the sigma
tura of Arizona. was recently re-
commended to Governor Richardson
by Herbert Hoover and is the one
followed by the states of Wyoming
and Colorado. A similar resolution
has been introduced in the senate
by Senator A. Burlingame Johnson
of Pasadena.
Assemblymen Isaac Jones, J. ].

introduces resolution providing
for ratification of the pact by six
states. This resolution, however.
contained reservation to the eff
feet that the pact could not be
come operative until after the fed
eral government constructs dam
in the river near Boulder creek.
In Hoover's telegram to Cover
nor Richardson he pointed out the
possibilities of such reservations
as proposed in the Jones Murphy
Finnev resolution bringing about
ultimate defeat of the entire pro-
~iect. He urged that the ratifica-
tion be made without any reserva-
tions whatsoever.
Introducing their resolution to-

was to permit the COMMITTEES ON

a warm garage to a bitterly cold
winter street! The quick shift from

relentless wear and tear Of dust,

In the summer time you buy low

In the winter you demand high
shoes, heavier garments, warmer
hat. Out come furs. overcoats,
gloves, etc.
Why? So you adopt your pro-
tective coverings to the changes or
seasons-to varying conditions OF
heat and cold and weather. And in
making your choice you give
thought to the durability of each
article. You want it to stand the
stress Of use-of wear.
Your automobile is subject to the
