in which they were caught more
than q week ago.

saved, but predictions are made
that If this is accomplished it
will be in the very closing days
Of the present session.

Senator Bingham explained
that it had been impossible to
reach any compromise with the
House managers, headed by Rep

Simmons and his group repre-

The wrangle over the police and

today to be in status quo, with
House leaders renewing efforts to
bring some agreement between
Simmons and the House District
Committee and Simmons, and the
Senate District Committee.
The bill, with the Simmons
amendments which the Senate
wuold not accept, ordering, in
stead, that the measure be thrown
into conference committee for ad-

on the Speakers table. and will
there remain until some compro-
mise is reached, Simmons having
refused unanimous consent to
have it sent to conference.

By NATHAN ROBERTSON
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2S. U.P)-
Evidence of vote trading among SEN

He was also called in connection
with a spectacular lobby conducted
recently by independent oil pro-
dncers in which two train loads of
wealthy and influential oil operators

ing for an oil tariff.
Franklin testified that part of hlA

er. Secretary of War Hurley. an Ok

! Franklin said.

GOOD WEATHER
DRAWS CROWD
TO SEE RACES

With the weather somewhat I'M
proved today, a ,arG/ crowd was
anticipated at the Imperial County
Fair this afternoon when the second
racing card was to be conducted.
The good reports spread about the
valley on Yesterdays excellent show
my despite adverse weather condi-
tion, had beneficial effect, and
this afternoon the fair office adVis-
ed that 4 good crowd was on hand
to see the nags do their stuff.
Because of bad weather around
san Bcrnardino, the dirigible "Nol-
unteer". was unable TO come here to-
day, but fair officials arc hoping it
will he able to arrive tomorrow. AS
the blimp is putting in its time aid
ing in the search for Jimmy Doles,
missing Western Air Express flyer,
none win begrudge its delayed ap-
pcarancc here.
'Fm disappointed myself said
Jack Quinn, representative Of the
Goodyear Rubber Company. which
owns the bimp, "but if the ship can
aid the search for Jimmy. I'm sure
we would all want it to remain up
NORTH
Inability of Governor Young to
attend the fair tomorrow, is also a
disappointment to the fair officials
but with their usual optimism, they
are facing the break. Tomorrow's
attraction win be the arrival of the
Standard AirlincS planes to inaugur-
ate air service through the valley,
plus the last card of horse racing.
Fancy riding, daredevil stunts,
trick roring and high class sharp
shooting provided much entertain
mcnt for the race fans at the fair
yesterday afternoon between the
diffcren events on the days card,
and will be repeated today and to-
MORROW.
Bonnie Gray and her educated
Steed, Ed Wright with his "two-bit''
mule and +. Garrct were the stars
en- the program and certainly dc
served much applause from the
crowd in the stands. The high wind
mterfercd somewhat with t h G
smoothness of their tricks but in
spite of everything they were there
with the goods, plenty.
The three riders gave a wonder
ful exhibition Of trick riding which
thrilled the crowd. Turning abou,
in the saddle while the horses were
at full speed; jumping off, then on.
then over and back again-all tho
tricks one sees at rodeos and Other
horse shows-were presented for tho
approval of the audience and were
