In the 1926 election two constitutional amend

voters One sponsored by Los Angeles provided for
apportonment strictly population basis. This
would have placed control of the entire legislature in
to the hands of the larger cities-Los Angeles San
Francisco and Oakland 1t overwhelmingly

The other, sponsored by the State Farm Bureau,
provided for the federal" plan of apportonment.
This members of the assembly would be chosen
basis of population. Members of the senate
would be apportoned on county basis, county to
have than SENATOR and smaller counties to be
grouped that the present number of senatorsforty
would be maintained. This is called the federal
plan because follows the plan for election of repres
entatives and senator's. 1t would permit the larger
cities to control the assembly and the smaller districts
to control the senate.
1t carried by large ma jority and the legsla-
ture passed an apportonment bill in harmony with the
wishes of the people expressed by the ballot. But
Los Angeles hung up the amendment referendum.
The vote next month is to approve the apportonment
bill passed by the legislature and those who favor the
federal plan should vote yes.
No constitutional change is involved. The rural
countries should roll up large majority for No.

Action by the board of supervisors, purchasing the
equipment of the Brawley Mid-Winter fair, indicates
that in the future, possibly this year, will have

The statement is not intended to cast any adverse
reflection the Mid-Wnter fair of previous years
Far from it. Starting from nothing at all, the Mid
Winter fair, largely through the courage of Brawley
citizens with faith in their community and Imperial
Valley, grew to a real fair of which any county could
be proud
In comparison with other fairs in the state, it
a splendid success. But it labored under handicap.
It requires considerable financial outlay to conduct
venture Of this kind much Of which must be expended
before any return comes in The drain on the citi-
who sponsored the fair, was a heavy Right
ly, such fair should be sponsored b. all the people
of the county, through the county government.
Then too, the fair unfortunate the past two
years in meeting with bad weather conditions This
cut down the attendance that the net result Of the
fair showed up in red.
The plans of the supervisors have not been made
known as yet, but it is indicated that they will con-
tlnue the fair under county auspices. Whether or
not it will be held in midwiner remains for them to
decide This certainly forms q unique feature,
other portion Of the country holding q fair at that
season.
Whatever plan is adopted it will be the oatgrowth
of the dreams OF a small group Of BraWeyltea, who
dared to lead and only overcome when their
dreams realized far beyond Their expectations
If the fairs of the future be representative

years have been they will be splendid successes
