G. R. Prim, seeking to recover $50
which he claimed due him and for
which he charged the defendant had

The defendant testified that he
had engaged in "stud poker

which to continue play. The check
for $50 and $40 in cash was given
the plaintiff, then he stopped pay

At this point Attorney J. F..

ground that the plaintiff had no

that the money had been loaned for
an unlawful purpose.

be attended by Willard Ellis, presi-
dent of the Intermediate Credit

Brawley, on that date. All valley
cattlemen are requested to attend.
In making the announcement of
the meeting sponsors of the plan
point out that the early rains in
all grass sections of California have
brought about n condition which
will probably cause marketing of
Imperial valley beef cattle to con-
flict with 4 larger proportion of
the grass cattle than usual. The
resultant marketing problem calls
for careful attention, it is stated.
The meeting will also be attend
ed by j. Knorpp. of the Southwest
Cattle Loan Company. by William
F. Hough of the First National
Bank of Los Angeles. and other pro-
minent cattlemen of the state. 1t

tation of valley cattlemen will be
on hand to meet them.

The problem of rehabilitation Of
those who have lost their all in
the Mississippi flood is today one
of the vital questions before the
American people. 1t deserves the
help of those in every walk of life
especially those in the livestock
industry.
A photographer who spent some
time in the devastated area of
France and Belgium told me his
photographs of the Louisiana flood
showed much greater destruction
by water than by war in those
foreign countries. His statement is
correct. for the refugee returning
home often finds his house swept
from its foundation, out-buildings
and fences washed away, live
stock of all kinds drowned and
sea of mud, devoid of any vegeta-
ton, where luxuriant crops only a
few weeks ago flourished.
AS there is no chance of raising
regular crops this season, abun-
ant supplies of sweet potato slips
and seed of Mexican June corn,
sorghum and rapidly growing
vegetable seed should be furnished
as quickly as possible in order
that they may be planted as the
water recedes and before the hot
sun forms a crust which will inter
fere with termination.
The number of chickens, swine,
and cows lost is appalling, and
every effort should be made by
the Rehabilitation Committee to
try to place chickens, good pigs,
and wherever there are children,
milk cow The Government will
undoubtedly assist by furnishing
tents until people are able to
straighten out and rebuild their
homes and direct the necessary
fencing for both crops and live
stock.
We do not know how quickly
this flood will pass off. Should
it increase above the danger line,
with our levees down. il may re-
suit in multiplying efforts at early
rehabilitation.
But there is determination on
the part of our people to go to
work vigorously, and pay, their
debts. with the. certainty that the
people of America will recognize
as an act of justice and humanity
their duty to protect us at once,
and for all time save us from any
