In the report" said Mobile, lit is
suggested that the order was given
by the commander to force the

free the ballast chain.
This is absolutely false" ex-
claimed the general with consider
able vehemence. Such a move
would have been incredibly stupid"

In addition, New Iso-Vis has what en-.

1t works better both at high engine tem-

Most important of all, perhaps, New
Iso-Vis actually resists dilution and does
not thin out in the crankcase. Note the
sturdy body of New Iso-Vis as you drain
it out after many hundreds of miles of
driving. Compare it with any other oil
driven a similar distance.
New Iso-Vis means protection not
only when the oil is fresh-but every mile
you drive. You do not need to drain this
oil because it has ''thinned out, but sim.
ply because of the dirt which inevitably
collects in your crankcase.
Here, we believe, is the most effective
fabrication yet developed for your car.
You can get New Iso-Vis Motor Oil
from any Standard Oil dealer or service
station. Its price is 80 cents quart.

LIQUOR ISSUE is
PARAMOUNT FOR
FALL ELECTIONS
Candidates for Congress to
Be Placed on Record
in Referendum
BIZ RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 17.-Pro-
hibition will play more important
part in the coming congressional
elections than in any since the
eighteenth amendment was adopted,
in the opinion Of political leaders
here.
Already 1t has taken the leading
place in the key state of Mas
sachusetts where former Senator
William NJ. Butler, former chairman
IT the Republican national COM
mittee, Just has declared he stands
with President Hoover against
modification.
No Riding Through"
Preparations are being made by
net and dry groups to force every
candidate for the house and senate
on record as to prohibition and
modification. Some who have been
able to ride through one campaign
after another avoiding prohibition
IS an issue. are likely to be forced
on record now.
The result is that the congress
slonal elections this year are ex-
pected to be as much in the nature
Of a referendum on prohibition as
s. possible under the American po-
ltical system.
In every election for the last ten
vears, drys have worked systemat-
ically to increase their strength in
congress. They have seen it rise
slowly until it is more than three
fourths dry nominallv. Despite the
agitation of vets. drys are at their
highest peak in congress.
Watching Straws
Since a politician regards 1t as his
foremost business TO win, those in
both parties are eagerly watching
the numerous StraWS now tossing
about in the wind. Declarations
like that of the Union League and
National Republican clubs in New
York are influential in the east,
though in the west Republicans are
more inclined to discount them as
a product of wet New York.
The Literary Digest poll, because
Of its nationwide scope will be
studied like election figures.

CENTRAL UNION
HCOPSTERS TAKE
THREE CONTESTS

1t was Central Union all the way
last night when the three teams
from that school met the basketball
tossers from Brawley in scheduled
county league matches played in the
local gymnasium. The local girls
won, 63-l3; Class C, l4-12; and the
AS, 1920.
The best game of the evening was
between the "Cees" of the two
schools, it being nip and tuck at
fair throughout and one of the best
seen here in years. Ell Centre held
Il slight lead continually but never
was able to relax vigilance for a
moment.
Price, with points was the
leading scorer for the locals and
played wonderful game. Johnson
and Steel deserve oceans of credit
for their defensive work and fight
ing ability. This victory for Coach
ketchen's boys practically einches
the title fer them as they now have
won all their hard games.
The class A game was III Cen
tro's all the way and Brawley did
not have chance at any stage of
the proceedings. At half time the
score stood l64 in favor of the To-
calls. The second half showed q
more even game, each team tally
ing 10 points.
Miller with IA was the Spartan's
big scorer. Wynne with 8, played
bang-up game while the work of
Cary and Rogers at guard was ex-
cellent and kept many Brawley
shots from reaching the goal.
Junior Todd, of San Diego refer
eed the game to the satisfaction
pf all and fair crowd witnessed
the three games.
Ell Centre is setting up an cnvi-
able record this season having won
out of the 9 games played so far.
The girls team and the Gees. are
practically assured of the gonfalon
while lie AS have lost ono game,
that to CalcXico, and arc still in
the running for first place honors.
