Arrival of Coste and BellOnte safely

flight from Paris. France, is parncu-
larly happy event.
Ever since NungeSSer and Coli set out
on that fatal day in May three years ago,
the French have felt that fate cheated
them of honorS rightfully their due be-
cause of the mysterious tragedy which
overlook the flying pair Only few days
later Lindbergh made his historic flight,

monarch ever received.
France and the French showed them
selves to be true sportsmen on that occa-
sion. All they had was Lindberghs, S, de-
spite the sorrow which the loss Oh tiell
own flvers caused them. They grieved
fo,. Nungesser and Coli as the world
grieved with them, and they rel DICED for
I,indbergh as the world rejoiced.
Since then dozen Frenchmen have
tried to repay Lindbergh's visit. Flyers
of other nationalities have made the
east--west crossing Of the north-Atlahtic'
but no Frenchman succeeded. :,
Coste and Bellonte deserve all the
praise that is accorded them. They made
a remarkable flight, all aviators and sci
entists agreeing that the east to west
route is more difficult than the west to
east. They set out for an objective ana
accomplished it. They are the first to
leave the mainland Of Europe and fly
across to the mainland of North Amer
lea without stop.
Leave it to Colonel Lindbergh to do the
right thing. He was present at Curhss

Ocean flights have become somewhat
prosaic, but there is a distinct appear
about the arrival of Coste and Bellonte
one cannot help but consider them as

to their deaths trying to bring. honor TO

summer at the beach not far from

All of sudden Uncle Wigglly
saw something bobbing up and

Of dairy producers of Imperial 'ouh'
~ is planning to journey to san

protest against San Diego $ proposed
dairy ordinance. The valley men
and a number Of this county ) clNlc
organizations are waging an inteh-
sive campaign against the San Diego
milk ordinance, which has been in
troduced and seeks to bar lmperifl
Valley milk. and raw cream unless
and until every dairy COW III TINS
county has been tubereulin tested
and all reactors removed.
Imperial Valley dairymen are
in accord with that part OF the or.
dinance which provided that all the
raw milk and raw cream supplied the
San Diego markets shall be from
tuberculin tested herds, but they are
opposed to that clause which seeks
to bar Imperial Valley milk by pro
viding that all milk and cream en-
rering San Diego must come from
counties in which there are no re.
actors. Were this ordinance passed
and strictly enforced, one untested

already signified their intention OF
making improvements on thelr
ranches and having their cows tested
in order to qualify for shipping
cream to the San Diego markets ana
TO receive higher prices for the same.

Valley are cooperating heartily with

II. H. CLARK

Death of H. T. Clark in Los Angeles
yesterday, removes an interesting figure
from Imperial Valley and many will re-
gret the passing of a genial and unset
fish man whose worth as substantial
citizen cannot be underestimated
Mr.. Clark was a leader in affairs at
Calexico for many years. He served as
president of its chamber of commerce and
was at all times ready to give assistance
to projects in which his city was inter-
ested.
As general manager of the Colorado
River Land company he was interested
in developments below the international
line, but he was also vitality interested IN
Imperial Valley. Although his viewpoint
on Colorado river matters may have dlt-
fered in minor details with those held by
the majority of residents here, he, too
wished to see Imperial Valley develop to
the fullest extent the splendid resources
with which nature has blessed her.
His interests were not alone confined
to the south end. He had large holdings
in the vicinity of Calipatria and he did
much in assuring the success OF the
northern community.
Possessing a delightful personality,
he made friends easily and he kept those
he made Hundreds will miss in him a
loyal friend and splendid gentleman.
