MEXICAN LABOR RESOLUTTONTO
BE DISCUSSED BY CHAMBERS

The resolution passed by the Fl
Centre Chamber of Commerce at it's
meeting Wednesday night relative
to handling the Mexican labor stu
alton has created considerable inter
est and will be one of the matters
tc be brought up at the meeting of
the associated chambers in Calipat-
ria tonight by FL Centre delegates
w. j. Strickland, secretary of the
chamber, this morning sent out
copies of the resolution to numerous
chambers of commerce including
those located at Yuma, Phoenix,
Tucson, Nogales, San Diego, Aos An
geles and the United States Chamber
of commerce. Others were sent to
legislators of the state including
Congressman Phil Swing. The FL
Centre chamber seeks to bring a
concerted movement against the
passage of legislation restricting
Mexican immigration. 1t is believ-
ed here that it would prove detri-
r'ental to the valley due to the fact
that much Mexican labor is used
in the fields.
"Whereas the Imperial Valley is
almost entirely dependant for its
prosperity and development upon
agriculture, especially general farm
ing and the vegetable industry; and
Whereas the general farming
and vegetable industries are largely
dependant upon Mexican labor for
