TT now looks like war between the
i United States and Mexico, or rather
war on Mexico by the United States.
1t is ludicrous to hear the Washington
administration say to Mexico: please
10 not try to strange me-" And it is
not strange to see William Randolph
Hearst, the infamous, former Anglo
phobe now turn Anglophile and boost
for a union Of America and England
against the whole world Those things
10 not happen by accident. The secret
caucuses OF the dominant capitalist fac
tons thru their Masonic orders and
Knights OF Columbus hatch the plots
over their cocktails and what the
masses see or hear Is only what the
puppets OF the plotbers put on the
air.

SHANGHAI, Jan. 9-Interferenee

Shanghai in their successful drive
down the Ysnatze against the north
ern troops was seen in the gathering
Of ships of war by various foreign
powers for the ostensible purpose OF
protecting their nationals here.
Five United States destroyers have
arrived from Manila; more U. S.
boats are due from the Mediterran-
can; several fiotillas of English ships
are on the way to reinforce the al

Yangtze; and the Japanese are re-
ported modifying a large naval force
at Nagasaki.
Panicky Tales.
Arrival here of some 900 pani7
stricken British, mostly women from
Hankow and Kiukang has added to
the needless uneasiness Of the for
eign population. The refugees" ar
rived here on British destroyers with
terrible tales of "mobs" attacking the
British concession in Hankow. 1t Is
unique that none of the narrowing
tales related one instance OF death
or injury to the foreigns. The oc-
cupation of the British concession in
Hankow by the nationalists wa
prompted by the shooting of Chinese
by British marines.
Hankow Is Quiet.
Recent reports from Hankow, how
ever, state that the Nationalist have
again turned over the concession TO
the British and have assured protec-
ton to the area. This was done after
the British consul had given the ma
tionalist foreign minister, Eugene
Chan, assurances that the British
troops would not modest Chinese.
Anti-British sentiment IN China is
growing apace and much agitetion

Tests To Decide
Valley Hemp Crop

Roy 'Womack, chemist of the
department of agriculture, returned
to Sacramento yesterday where he
will make report to Governor {
c. Young on his findings in the
valley relative to the growth of
hemp here. The official investiga,
tion was made at the instance Of
the governor to determine the mar
cotic qualities of the growth, it be-
ing intimated that hemp and mari
iuana are similar in practically ev-
cry respect.
The investigation included thor
ough probe into the uses of the pro
duet grown here. There are some
200 acres of hemp planted in the
valley, apparently as a commercial
venture.
While here the chemist talked
with various business men of the
valley and with police officials in
an effort to determine whether the
hemp as a commercial project will
prove detrimental if it is found to
contain high percentage Of mar
cotics.
1t was pointed out that it will
require considerable time to make
the ne"o"cary tests to determine
what cntage of narcotic the
growth c"otains. There is no labor
atory in tie state properly fitted to
carry On he necessary tests and the
prod"ct must be shipped east to be
tested.

A series of six mats, depicting
various points of interest in 1mper-

Canyon and the proposed site for
Boulder Dam reservoir above the
canyon, is being sent out from the
Imperial Irrigation District this

The service is being extended to
the papers in an effort to obtain
publicity showing the relationship
of the valley to Colorado river and
the necessity of Boulder Dam.
One of the pictures shows the
Colorado river at lockwood dam,

its water supply. Next are two pie

the cantaloupc and lettuce crops

Two pictures taken in the vicinit V
of Bo"lder Canyon are included.
One shows the point where the res
crvoir will be located, above the
proposed dam site. The other shows
the Colorado vending its way
through the huge canyon and de-
picts the advantages of the spot
for the dam. On the same mat is
a picture of the river here at a
time of high water, showing a back
up of the water and the ruination
