CENTER MEETING
ENJOYS TALK BY
SAM ROBINSON


S. e. Robinson. assemblyman
from this district, with Mrs. Rob-
inson, received q warm welcome
last night at the dinner given in
his honor by the Eastside-S
home department and farm center.
Judge Vaughn N. Thompson de-
livered a highly complimentary
speech, praising the work done by
Robinson in the assembly and
pointing out the good fortune OF
Imperial Valley in obtaining an as
semblyman OF such high calibre to
succeed the late Myron d. Witter.
Robinson responded, expressing
his appreciation of the welcome ac-
corded him, and recounting some of
his experiences in the legislature.
In practicular he explained his
stand on the bill which proposed
taxing municipality owned utilities,
which bill he pointed out, was part
of the state farm bureau program.
The theory underlying the bill was
that the consumer OF power sold by
privately owned utilities is ulti-
mately taxed for the product he
receives, while the consumer of
publicly owned utilities is not. In
order TO distribute the burden of
taxation equally the bill was in
troduced but was not adopted.
Believes In Bill
Robinson reaffirmed his belief in
the bill asking a property qualifi-
cation for voters in irrigation dis
trict elections, stating that he in
troduced the bill at the request OF
the organizations most concerned
the Imperial County Farm Bureau,
the board of supervisors, the I'm
perial Irrigation District and the
grand jury. He stated his belief In
the principle involved and an
nounced that he would continue to
support the idea.
A delightful program of music
was presented by Russell Bennitt
who gave two vocal solos, by Mrs.
Bennitt and Helene Head Bechtcl
who gave a violin and piano duet
as we'll as solos Miss Irene Cope
land gave a clever reading.
Rudolph Harmon was in charge
of the recreation program which
followed the meeting and presented
series OF amusing games which
were greatly enjoyed.
over $50 farm center and home
department members turned out TO
honor Mr.. and Mrs. Robinson and
home department members for the
wonderful dinner served by them
under the Craftsmanship of Mrs. G..
Whitney.
The meeting was held in the

4 Cities Report Disorders,

of May 20 Anniversary

HAVANA. May 21.-The gov
ernment Of President Machado
officially admitted today that
revolutionary outbreaks against
its authority had occurred at the
interior cities of Manzanillo and
Jiguani, with some disorders at
Chaparra and Holguin.
The government is confident,
the statement said, that it is able
to control the situation, but
threatened again to suspend all
constitutional guarantees and
place the country virtually un-
der martial law if the serious
attitude persists"
Casualties Reported
Dispatches to Havana news
papers and private advices from
Manzanillo and Jiguana stated
some fighting had occurred be-
tween troops and the rebels, and
tntimated there had been a num-
Der of casualties. But no men,
tion of actual fighting was made
in the government statement,
which said further:
There, have been revoIu-
tiOnary attempts at ManzanillO
and Jiguani, and some excite
ment occurred at Chaparra and
HOlguin, but they have been
suppressed by the authorities.
The government has taken all
necessary measures to prevent
further trouble, and our armed
forces are ready for any emer-
gency."
Disorders Expected
Havana itself was quiet today
although tense, as reports of dis
turbances in outlying provinces
permeated the city. Neither the
authorities nor the public were
surprised by the outbreaks. as
rumors of Simmering revolution
in the republic had been current
for many months, and May 20.
Cuba's independence day, had
generally been considered as the
day on which the revolutionary
movement would come to a head.
