harassing than usual And it would be mere optimism
to say that good times Just around the corner.
Yet it there is brighter side to the present
situation which should be more clearly realized
We Caifornians living today in a state blessed as
few staes just the people of this country are living
in nation favored as are few nations
This is, perhaps the selfish viewpoint But, from a
broader vision Of the world are there not signs which
are definitely encouraging?
Throughout the world men and women statesmen,
educators, business eaders-are thinking in new terms
Adjustments being made between nations and in the
structure of busness-a based upon sounder ideas of
what really makes for happiness and worthwhile progress.
This is the history of every crisis 1t is the reward which
mankind wins in its struggle with difficult conditions
Translate this into terms of your own business your
affairs.
Is that the thinking you are doing now is
geared more directly to realities than your
thinking of three, five, seven years ago? r A
Imperial Valley press., 1931-11-02

Is it not that this thinking is, in many businesses
showing the way of some of today's difficulties?
Are not laying the foundation for more satisfactory
conditions when the world has adjusted itself the
aftermath of those fevered years between 1917 and 1929?
In own business we have benefited by the stern
necessities of difficult period
Our organization has been strengthened We have
learned-and still learnnghow be better bankers
useful our customers, and to the communities
we serve.r
When the record of California business and banking
during the past two years dsPassonatey reviewed. the
stabzng influence of this Banks statewide organization
becomes significant!
In time of worldwide strain, the value of state.
wide branch banking has been tested and proved
successful.
1t is true of course that no bank could be so we'll
equipped in and organization, unless it drew
much of its strength from the communities The
soundness of California reflected in the soundnes of

The fact that this Bank is today so strong in resources

MANAGUA REPORTS

Minister Hanna Says Only One
Has Been Killed and One
Other Wounded

Washington, April 7.--(F-Ameri-
can Minister Hanna at Managua adj
vised the state department Tuesday
that reports of the shooting of many
looters in the earthquake stricken city
had been exaggerated.
The Nicaraguan national guard, he
said. had killed only n looter and
wounded another.
Investigations. have indicated the
action in both instances was justified.
The marines here have not killed or
wounded anyone. The commander Of
the national guard, after the declara-
ton Of martial law on March 81, is
sued orders that loOters would be shot
on sight.
This order was modified on April 4
in the sense that only persons found
looting valuable property should be
shot"
At the navy department it was re-
ported the navy transport plane. car
rying medical supplies to Managua,
took off Tuesday from Hampton
Roads for Miami, Fla, by way Of Sa-
vannah.
Minister Hanna's report was in re-
Spouse to a specific inquiry Monday
from the state department. The state
department still was without official
information of the incident between
President Moncado and Lieutenant
Commander William B. Hetfield,
United States navy, growing out of
the death Of Sergeant w. II. Pigg Of
the marines.
Hanna reported that already $50
dead had been buried and that while
the search for bodies continued It was
probable hundreds never would be re-
covered.

FREEMAN DISCUSSES
WORK OF ASSEMBLY
Tells kiWanis Club Power OF
Speaker Overestimated Since
Precedent Rules

When modern folk accuse public
officeholderS and attack legislatures
for their real or imagined offenses,
they are merely copying something
which has been common since legislA-
tive bodies came into being, g. v.
Freeman, deputy state game and fish
commissioner and speaker. Of the
house at the last legislative session,
told members Of the Kiwaris club
Tuesday noon.
James Madison, In commenting on
the quality Of Legislative leadership,
asserted In 1851 that not more than
10 men did most of the. work in the
Virginia legislature, Freeman said.
He also quoted Confucius as saying
that officehoruers too frequently were
willing to do anything to get an office
and willing to do anything to keep It.
This, he said, is not much different
from the current criticism Of today.
Defending his legislative colleagues,
however, the speaker said most Of
them would be able to go to their re-
ward with q consciousness of work
well done and that few bodies serve
the state 50 faithfully or 50 we'll.
Discussing the work OF the North
Dakota assembly, Freeman said he
had found the work Of the speaker
ship to be largely mechanical and
that the influence Of the office ap-
peared to be o~ver-rated, since the &C.
tons Of the presiding officer r con-
trolled largely by rules and precedent.
Most Of the bills offered at each
session, he asserted, originate with
individuals or groups which seek to
enhance or protect their interests by
obtaining legislative action. Among
the issues which he said have been
presented recently to this or other
legislatures are those of railroads vs..
bus and truck lines; chain stores VS..
home-owned establishments, and
agricultural vs.. other products. In
the latter class, he said, comes the
law to tax oleomargarine, passed by
the North Dakota assembly.
All such bill enacted are the result
Of public pressure and demand, he
said, and those offered are the result
of such pressure by at least a part Of
WAC P0UAs~s
Reviewing the duties of the legisla-
ture, Freeman said it Is the main
spring of state activities, since 1t
takes the initial steps toward most
revisions Of the State constitution,
enacts both civil and criminal laws,
controls appropriations and taxes, and
exercises the police power.
The latter, Freeman asserted, prob
ably is its most important function
for the things done under this CLASH
fication gives the state at least some
supervision over the individual from
the cradle to the grave and over his
affairs even after that.
