MlthcwSm will advise the grow
crS that certain provisions of the
present picking and packing con
tracts in vogue in the valley will
have to be radically changed in
ply with the requirements of the
law governing conditions of en-
ployment Of farm labor.

"Thc King had some hours sleep.
The slight Improvement noted late
last night is maintained, the tenn

The King recognized his son when
the Prince tip-toed into his room at
buckingham Palace last night after
his dramatic 1000 mile race from
East Africa and attendants said he
appeared to rally lightly.
But it was feared today that the
stimulus which the Princes return
provided was hardly sufficient to
overcome the rigors Of the King =
prolonged illness.
There was magnificent drama
in the return of the Prince Of Wales
from his African hunting expedition.
The young man who set out so jo".
ously only few months ago to be.
come bronzcd under the African
sun, returned haggard and pale to
his fathers bedside.
For more than 30 minutes after
his arrival at the palace at 1924
p. m, the Prince dared not enter
the sickroom. lie composed himself
during a long talk with his mother,
Queen Mary.
Accompanied by the Queen and
his brother, the Duke of York, the
Prince entered the sound.proof room
in which his father is ill.
The meeting was affcctionatc.
Owing to court etiquette, no details
of what actually transpircd ever
will be known, but it could certain
ly be imagined to be the greeting
of any very sick father to a son
who had been absent for three
The visit to the sickroom was
brief, for the physicians had warn
ed that the excitement of the King
on seeing the Prince might over
come the first benefits of the re,
union.
Sir Stanley Hcwctt, apothecary
surgeon to the King, spent the
right at the palace.
The King went to sleep almost i'm
mcdiatcly after the Prince 9 visit.
