FOR SUFFERERS

Much clothing is needed for the
flood sufferers of the Lower Missis-
sippi and the public is asked to help
the American Legion Auxiliary to
collect such clothing. The committee
of the Auxiliary having this in charge
has arranged for the Legion club
rooms to be open Thursday, Friday
and Saturday afternoons of this week
and the donations should be brought
there. The request is for clean, SER
viceable clothing for men, women and
children. Shawls and bedding are es-
pecially acceptable" The call is an
urgent one and should be met prompt
ly and generously. The Auxiliary is
the agent of collection but the dona-
tions are not be confined to its men,
bers-every householder is asked to
go through her stores and select such
articles as can be spared by her own
family. Useless articles should not
be sent in as the payment of trans
portation on such will be a waste of
money.

State Fire Head
To Visit Here

Jay Stevens, state fire marshal,
will be in E lCentro next Wednes.
day night, according to information
received today by Charles f. Fer
guson of this city, chief deputy
state fire marshal.
Stevens will be accompanied by
Mark Ryan, president of the Pacific
Coast Association of Fire Chiefs,
and by Sam Short, past president of
the association and chief of the
Oakland fire department.
These officials will attend meet
ing of the Imperial Valley Fire
mems Association at the Ell Centre
headquarters, and will consult with
the valley firemen on various phases
of their work.
According to Ferguson one of the
matters to be taken up is the new
law governing cleaning establish
ments. This law, which became eff
fective last August, is very string
ent and has been misunderstood in
many parts of the state. In order
to make all the requirements of the
law clear to owners of such estab-
hshments in the valley, they are in
vited to attend the meeting at fire
headquarters.

Juana causes many dangerous forms
of mania and its addiets are moro
feared by narcotic agents than any
other form of drug addiets. He
said that his department mas al.
ready obtained information that
marijuana smoking has already
been taken up by school children in
the state to a greater extent than
the use of any other drug. One Of
its dangers lies in the fact, he sid,
that it can be grown anywhere in
the southwest and is therefore much
more easily obtained than any other
drug.
California has already passed leg
islation forbidding the growth cd
marijuana for any purpose and the
only persons who can lawfully raise
it are duly licensed druggists Chief
Benson said that While ne does not
wish to interfere with legitimate
industry, which he believes to be
the intent of the ranchers in the
valley, it will be necessary to take
steps to prohibit its cult walton if
the tests show that the plant is
marijuana.

the growers would, as far as could
be determined, reap it as such for
commercial purposes.
But in order to straighten out
the matter the sheriff turned the
case over to members Of the state
narcotic enforcement department
for in es' isa.'on.
Frank II. Be .0n. chief of the
narcotic division of the State De-
partment of Pharmacy, made u visit
to the valley and inspected th4
growth. He obtained samples and
these have been forwarded to the
San Francisco offices where they
will be analyzed.
The narcotic chief pointed OUT
that should the growth show u
strong narcotic content, a serious
situation would develope. 1t will
probably result in an order from the
department to completely destroy
the 200 acres of plant.

STATE TO DECIDE IF VALLEY

Tests are being made ! at San
Francisco to determine whether or
