ing the championship in the junior di-

A youngster of IL, Joe was given quite
a task when he was taken to strange
place, full of strangers, and was expected
to be as good as he was on his own home
field, with all his friends looking on to
encourage him. He made good on his big
job and we hope it is the first of long
line of good jobs on which he will come
through with flying colors.
Calexico can rightfully claim Joe for
her own but can also be generous enough
to share him with the rest of Imperial
Valley.
Joe gets his next big chance at Allan
tic City, when he competes in the nation
al finals, and here is one youngster who
should be given the solid support of the
entire valley. If moral support and the
hopes of friends will help him win, Joe
should finish out in front in the New
Jersey city.

DAN CONSTRUCTION NEAR

a 1t may be June but it feels like Christ
Il mas with Santa Claus packing Imperial
I valleys stocking to the brim,' is the way
one leading citizen of the town expressed
himself yesterday upon learning that At
torney General Mitchell had approved
the Boulder dam contracts, and that the
! appropriation Of $10,660,OOO had been
included in the second deficiency bill.
congressman Phil Swing feels exceed
lngly optimistic that the bill will be
! passed and the appropriation made a.
valuable before congress adjourns within
the next two weeks.
Threats to filibuster against the bill
IN the senate may be fulfilled, but it is
not likely that this move will succeed.
practically every congressman and SEN
tor has some item included in the defici-
ency bill and for that reason all of them
are anxious to have it pass.
Arizona senators, who might be ex-
pected to take the lead in such move
ment, would be blocking their own leg
islation if they try to hold up the de-
ficiency bill. 1t includes substantial
sum to provide Phoenix with new feder-
al building, and one cannot imagine even
Arizonans being bull-neaded enough to
cut off their noses to spite their faces.
The ruling of the attorney general re-
moves practically the last barrier which
Arizona can raise against the project.
Swing, always alive to the least danger
that might threaten the dam, does not
concede Arizona as being dangerous in its
threats.
Secretary Wilbur has stated that five
minutes after the appropriation has
passed, work on the dam can begin. The
secretary is as anxious as any Imperial
Valley resident, that actual construction
shall be started without delay.
It is not unlikely that before the
Fourth of July rolls around the first
work on the dam will have become his
tory. Should this come true, it is going
to be one glorious Fourth of July in I'm
perial Valley.
