CHILDERS URGES
VALLEY TO AID
WATER MEASURE

Charles L. Childcrs, chief counsel
for the Imperial Irrigation District,
in an interview today, stated that
Assembly Constitutional Amend
mcnt No. q, appearing on the
November ballot as Proposition No.
Z, affects Imperial Valley only in
directly, but is Of vital Importance
to the balance of the state.
- Early in the history Of Califor-
MIA what is known as riparian
rights to the use of water were
recognized. Briefly, that is the
light given to any land owner upon
stream to have the water flow on,
over, or along, his property i'll its
natural way without change or
dimiuution. This has given rise to
much difficulty, Childcrs said.
ITO illustrate; in one instance
natural grasses were grown by the
use Of the overflow of stream
during tn" spring frcshcts. This WAS
an extremely Wastful use Of water,
but nevertheless beneficial use and
the courts actually cnioined the
storage Of flood waters where the
result WIS to prevent such flooding
or ovcrflowing. The practical result
was that large volume of water
would flow down the stream in the
spring and be lost and thousands OF
acres Of irrigabIe land would re
main dry because the water could
not be stored and held for use at
time when it was required. The
theory of constitutional amendment
No. - is to 2lace limit upon
riparian rights so that the uses must
be reasonable and thus release great
quantities of flood water for stor-
age and use at times when the
water is more urgently needed.
While, as we said before, Impe-
vial Valley is not directly affected,
the consensus Of opinion of many
9ble men in other parts of the state
who have considered ii is that it is
highly important to water users Of
California. and, therefore, obviously
should have the support OF the people

LONG HAIR'S NOT AS
TIDY AS THE BOB

~ ANN RL1SiS
Women of the present generation
have been wont to smile sneeringly
or laugh derisively at the styles Of
twenty-five years ago. The bobbed
head, the simple gown, the short
and freedom giving skirt were so
sensible that they felt that they
we're here to stay.
OF course if any one we're to
propose that tomorrow everyone
should appear in long draped skirts
and long hair deliberately dressed
there would be open rebellion. But
that is not the way these changes
arc brought about. but rather is the
change made gradually through sew
eral seasons.
We are in the course of sucn
changes now. Long hair. longe:
skirts, or short skirts and long
draperies at sides and back show the
trend.
What has long hair to recommend
its apparent revival? No one can
dispute the fact that the bobned
style brought with it love for
cleanliness ard trimness that never
we're part of the regime wher long
hair was the vogue.
The head being round, any ar
rangement of long hair, except at
the neckline, is bound to slip from
its moorings and as a consequence
untidiness and WHISKY locks are the
common order of the day-and the
night. So it behooves us all, if we
wish to keep this trimness. to take
thought now for the future. and
not follow fashion blindly if it die
tateS long hair again.

MARYE and NOM
n
THEIR LETTERS
BY RUTH DEWEY GROVES

b1 AOIH DE WE1 OHONES
Dear Marye:
I am sending the cock books as
you requested, also a box Of jellie5
and preserves, and l hope you won't
confine your interest TO the latter.
1t is very sensible of you to plan
to have Alan home for lunch, but
isn't it too far from his office 20
your apartment for him to come
home every day? He would have to
bolt his food, and that would be
bad for his digestion.
Id suggest that you arrange TO
give him a nice. nourishing dinner
instead. I never have approved your
going out so much. It must be eX-
pensive and after all it's much the
same food that you say he shouldn't
have for lunch. Besides I think it's
a mistake to drag a man out of his
home in the evening, too often. And
it won't do you any harm to get
more rest either.
I saw Norman Darby on the
street today and l must say he looks
frightfully dissipated. I hope you
didn't wear yourself out trying to
live up to your new "fCeedom' as
YOU call this showing aside of natur-
al feelings. You say Alan told you
to do as you pleased. And he hasn't
confessed he is jealous has he?
Well. my dear people don't al
ways confess. do they? Even we old
fashioned fogies have that much in
common with you up-to-date huS-
bands and wives. People always had
pride and much the same general
feeling about things that you have
Only we didn't act like oStriches and
stick our heads in a sand pile. And
some of your theories are exactly as
blindfolding to you as sand is to an
ostrich.
One of your theories seems to be
that love of home life will come na-
turally to a husband whenever his
wife gets tired of running around
and wants to spend the evenings
listening in on the radio. A woman
with any sense gets tired of it about
the time she sees her freshness be-
ginning to fade. And then what?
Most likely her husband has the
habit of going to theaters and night
clubs.
I'd advise you, Marye darling, to
begin cultivating Alans taste in the
right direction before it's too late.
You haven't been married so long
that you can't do it. It's generally
the woman who wants to go some
place almost every night the first
year or so. Then along comes a
baby, chances are, and if they can't
afford a nurse she has 20 stay at
home while her husband keeps right
