HAY BUYERS ARE
INTERESTED IN

H. G. Reed of Newark, New Jer.
sey, accompanied by II. NJ. NADIA

in the valley today for the purpose
Of studying the hay situation with
q view TO the possible opening in the
future of eastern markets for I'm
perial Valley hay.
Reed is hay buyer of Importance
and is interested in the buying of
hay direct, not on the consignment
basis. He made the statement that
he was agreeably surprised in the
quality of the hay he had seen, and
impressed with the possibilities of
this region.
The Imperial Valley Hay Improve
inent Association has been consign-
ing its hay to Maddaford with
marked success, netting approxi-
nately Sl.5o moro per ton than those
growers who have sold to buyers.
In talking to the Press reporter,
Maddaford spoke of the advantages
of hay grading stating that in the
future he would only be interested In
The handling of graded hay.

this outside of the privileged cham

promptly before court of justice.
On the stand, Copley repeated his
denial of Norris charges. He ad-
mitted under questioning that when
the charges were first made in the
spring of 1928 he then owned 81
i7G,600 of utility stocks.
This amount represented his in
terest in the Western United Cor
poration and the Western United
Gas and Electric company, both in
Illinois, and which were formerly
owned outright by Copley. Copley
said he received altogether about
$ll 100000 for his utility holdings.
Since last spring, Coplev said, he
has sold all his utility holdings. For
two years after selling the two
companies, Copley testified, he re-
mained as president of the Western
United Corporation until Samuel

Importance of visits of men like
Reed from the point of view of local
hay dealers. for, if the freight rates
can be reduced, valley hay can be
shipped TO the Atlantic seaboard,
thus securing a better distribution
of the crop, particularly in years Of
surplus when the Los Angeles mar
ket can not handle the supply.
The present difficulty in the way
of such distribution is the high
freight rate to the Atlantic coast,
and various civic organizations are
taking this matter up with the au-
thorities. If a rate of SIS to Sl6 per
ton could be obtained, so that hay
could be sold in New York for
around $33 per ton, the grower would
make fair profit and have an out,
let for his product.

IRA M'cLELLAND
NOT INVOLVED IN
Conner ROBBERY

Judge Myers, justice of the peace
at Calipatria, yesterday after
noon ordered the release of Ira Ne
Clelland after hearing testimony
relative to his alleged participation
in the. holdup and robbery of G. W.
Conner last Saturday afternoon.
The Judge took under advisement
his action in the case of Thomas
McClelland, a brother, who was ac-
cused of being the actual robher.
The Imperial Valley Press was
misinformed yesterday regarding
the disposition of the cases. From
the action of Judge Myers it is in
dieated that evidence produced by
the district attorney 5 office did not
warrant the holding of either Of
the men to answer in superior court.
Lee Nuffer, attorney for the
brothers. brought out testimony in
the preliminary hearing yesterday
at Brawley which tended to show
that while the case worked up by
Pat Thaanum looked good as cir
cupstantial evidence that the actu-
al facts did not show that either Of
the brothers was implicated.
Conner, victim OF the robber, is
alleged to have identified Thomas
McClelland as the man who COM
mitted the holdup. Ii is said that
he was riding into Brawley from
the Sandford ranch Saturday after
noon with Ira McClelland when
something became the matter with
the engine Of the car and it was
stopped.
While Ira was alleged to have
