which would help solve the basic

The Prince 5 speech made at n

TO BE WINNING

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 19.-Alma
Rubens, screen star, was reported
waging successful battle against
the use of narcotics in her home
here today.
DIR. Cecil Reynolds, her physician,

nicely that it was perfectly safe for
her to be returned to her home.
Previously the physician would
say only that the actress was
"about the same' and the more
optimistic announcement was taken
as a sign that her improvement was
marked.
MisI Rubens was confined to
Hollywood hospital until Sunday,
when she was removed to her
mother 5 ranch. She was moved to
her home yesterday.
Dir. Reynolds said that he did not
care to discuss the ease in detail,
as only the actress mother, Mrs

were told that the family preferred
not to discuss the ease.

Industrial, agricultural aud social
activities Of Imperial Valley will he
fully covered in an article to appear
in the March is1Ic of the Arrow
head magazine, according to b. A.
Harrigan, secretary of the board Of
trade.
This decision was reached yester-
day when a committee representing
the board Of trade appeared before
the county supervisors to di,,uss the
question of publicity for citv and
county. The suggestion of the
supervisors was to the effect that
the local trade organization cooper
ate with the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific railroads in their
efforts to impress upon the people
Of the remainder of the country
the opportunities to be found in
the valley.
The Arrowhead is Il Union Pa
cific publication, and the March
issue will run to $1,000 copies, which
viii be distributed by the organi-
zation throughout the country.
Again lending their aid to I'm
perial Valley publicity, the Union
Pacific has agreed to republish the
folders portraying the beauties of
the valley which was compiled with
their aSistance last year. There are
also to be 10000 copies of the pam
phlet distributed by the railroad
and were this work to be done by
the local group, the cost, with that
of printing the booklets, would be
around $1,000.
In the committee which appeared
before the supervisors were X. \.

and Don Pell.

GRUNDY IS SURE
To KEEPSEAT
IN SENATE

Administration leaders in the
Senate today planned to lay
aside the tariff bill to consider
tax reduction and at the same
time receive Joseph r. Grundy,
the new junior Senator from
Pennsylvania. into their midst.
Grundy was formally enrolled
as q Senator, hut q resolution
declaring him not entitled to re-
tain his seat was, pending before
the Senate Committee on Priv
neges and Elections. It declared
Grundy should be ousted because
he contributed $4O0, 900 to the
campaign fund OF Gov. John 8.
Fisher in that three millions dollar
Pennsylvania primary Of 1926.
This was the primary in which
William 8. Ware won q Senatorial
nomination but in which he spent
so much money the Senate
finally refused to seat him.
Certain to Keep Seat
The resolution, sponsored by
Senator Nye (R.l Of North Da-
kota, win be rejected in the end,
since a majority Of the Senate
has declared the appointing power
of Governor Fisher cannot be
questioned. It win serve, how.
ever, as a foil for considerable
debate in the future over Grundy's
appointment. a debate which
ragged for three hours In the
Senate yesterday before the oath
was administered to the Senator.
designate.
Grundy and Fisher both were
criticised. Grundy was termed q
corrupt lobbyist" described as
man who bought the governor"
and his appointment denounced
as q disgrace to Pennsylvania, /"
an insult to the Senate" and a
stencil in the nostrils Of good
citizens" Fisher met a like fate.
It was said his friends stole the
election" in which he was elected
governor. He, too. was termed q
disgrace to his State" and Sena-
tor Norris lR.) of Nebraska
branded him Us an lass" and a
damn fool"
The epithets applied TO Grundy
and Fisher we're without precedent
in the Senate's recent histary. IN
the past, Senators spoke Of Harry
F.. Sinclair, Albert B. Fall and
Charles r.. Forbes with far less
censure. Through it ALL. Grundy
sat silent, gagged by the Senate's
rules. Today. however, he will be
able to speak on q par with other
Senators, but the rules will pre-
vent him from replying in like
terms. It may have been a mere
coincidence but the critics of
Grundy could denounce him in
such violent terms only so long as
he was not member. They did so
yesterday but henceforth. they
must observe all the senatorial
courtesies toward him and may
never impugn his motives.
The Senate viii watch closely
the battle in Pennsylvania be
tween Ware and Grundy for the
Republican senatorial nomination
next May. Senator Norris indir
Gated the preponderarce Of SEN
atorial sympathy for Ware by ex-
pressing a hope that the good
people Of Pennsylvania will up
hold the honor and dignity Of that
state by refusing either to nomi-
nate or elect the man Governor
Fisher sent here"

Recommendations of Andrew j. Vol
stead. author of the prohibition en-

One Volstead proposal would make

offenses under the State law.
Volstead is legal adviser to the North
