The chamber of commerce has as.
certained that great majority of
merchants intend to close their
places of business upon Monday,
November i, following Armistice
Day.
Last year practically all of tho

is believed that with each succeed
ing year the closing will be more
and more general Armistice day
has, for several years been on the
list of approved holidays Of the Ell
Centre Chamber of Commerce, and
the merchants protective committee
of that body, favors the closing of
stores on Armistice Day, according
to c. W. Remele, its chairman. Ar
the last meeting of the Associated
Chambers of Commerce of Imperial
county, that body went on record as
favoring the closing of all places OF
business and schools on Armistice
day, or, as is the case this year, the
day set aside for the celebration of
Armistice day.
This year Holtville is planning to
have the Armistice Day celebration
which is held in different valley
city each year. Other cities Of the
valley were enthusiastic in helping
FL Centre celebrate that day two
years ago, and a general closing Of
stores will give the people of f.
Centre an opportunity to help Holt
Vile make success Of its cclebra-
tion on next Monday.

OUR .JOB DONE

With American marines on the job supervisors,
Nicaragua conducted its presidential election Sunday
in an orderly manner the result showing General Jose
Maria Moncada Liberal candidate the choice Of the
people
The presence Of our armed forces in Nicaragua,
even though they were there at the request of the
Nicaraguan government, has been source Of
annoyance to many Americans. However good
our intentions, they have been misinterpreted by
many both at home and abroad. Nevertheless the
administration at Washington stuck to its guns and the
marines remained the job to do the work assigned to
them.
That work is now over Nicaragua has elected
its government and it begins operating the
marines should and doubtless will be- Withdrawn with
the utmost dispatch
The United States need not apologize for its course
of conduct in Nicaragua during the past year 1t had
a difficult duty to perform and 1t carried through TO
the finish The efficiency of the work is shown by the
fact that there was not d single disturbance at any
time during the election We wonder we write
this if the thing be said about our own coun-
try Wednesday morning.

Consolation for the Vets

The New York Herald Tribune. staunchlv renubli-
can fails to find in the election Of Herbert Hoover the
victory for prohibition claimed BY the southern dem
ocrats who deserted their party.
The Anti-Saloon League can find little satisfaction
In the popular figure" the New York paper asserts, and
then states that Governor smith was regarded as the
"ettest of vets and still he pollcd the largest total
ever given a democratic candidate. Deduct from Gov
erhor Smiths total some Of the votes he received IN
the dry South. Deduct some more from the totals he
had IN some Of the wet states. And we have remaining
a total which, added to that wet republicans who voted
ir Mr. Hoover, may not give a majority. but Is never
theless so large that It must command attention.
In the first place, there Is not the least doubt in
the world that several million wet voters gave their
support TO Mr.. Hoover. Tars New York state. for cx-
ample; Governor Smith would have carried it if the
issue had been simply wet versus dry. Further proof
can be found in the result in Wisconsin"
1t is not often that both sides Of a question can ex-
tract solace from election returns, especially in an
election where the majority was SO overwhelming. But,
to judge from the editorial utterances Of the New York
paper, the vets are exultant over the showing. and
there is no question that the drys are celebrating what
the Anti-Saloon League has termed a magnificent
victory"
The claim was made in the South that the election
was in reality a referendum on prohibition. No one
can deny that in the South it was the issue Of the cam
paign; but the North did not regard it as an issue,
or ut least the election returns 50 indicate.
With both sides satisfied with the election results
it would seem that the prohibition question would be
permitted to lie quiescent, but there is no indication
that il will. There are too many professional politi-
clans on both sides Of the prohibition issue, and the
only way they can exc out a comfortable eincome is
t keep the public excited. II the professionals on both
sides we're sincere they would devote more attention
to securing efficient law enforcement, which would
speedily prove to the American public whether prohi-
bition III merely a "roble experiment" or a failure.
Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1928-11-22

The development Of the modern infsntryman, who ulti-
mately put the pikeman out Of business and is making
it hard for cavalry to exist, is based on the increasing
fire power of the doughboy's weapon. 1t is in ths
further exploitation Of automatic possibilities that the
United States Army is probably aiming in what the
Springfield Republican reports as the possible rearm-
ing OF Uncle Sans foot soldiers with a semi-automatic
rifle Of 276 caliser instead Of the present 3O-caliber
Springfield.
The slight reduction in ealiber Of the weapon can
be accomplished without any noticeable reduction IN
the deodly character Of the missile. while the smaller
bullet is probably designed almost entirely with an eye
toward decreasing the weight OF the carried ammuni-
tion.
Familiarity with the Browning automatic that can
be fired from the shoulder like the ordinary rifle inn
presses the observer that here is the weapon Of the
future for the infantryman until he realizes how rap
idly il will eat up ammunition and calculates the i'm
possibility Of asking the heavily laden soldier to carry
enough to keep il in action. A semi-automatic rifle
with faster fire power than the Springfield, but not
as rapid shooting capacity as the light Browning. and
firing a lighter bullet, might solve both the problem
Of speeding up the infantryman's firing rate and soly-
ing the problem of ammunition supply.
II the Springfield Is to be superseded. however, IL
will have its mourners. 1t seemed to the American
army by far the most efficient light arm In the las
war, from the all-round view Of light weight. accuracy.
facility Of use. field service under all conditions. and
potential fire power. Actually, the rifle was not used
up to the limit of what the regular army believes its
normal efficiency in combat. That il, there were next
to no occasions during the American participation when
the fortunes Of an encounter were decided BY the su-
perior fire power Of the infantry.
