FARM BUREAU DRIVE

Tomorrow the Imperial County Farm
Bureau will hold its annual member
ship drive in this city, at which time
citizens will be approached to lend their
support to this organization.
Since Imperial Valley is primarily an
agricultural community, the prosperity
Of the county depends largely upon the
prosperity of the farmer. The local farm
bureau has done commendable work IN
aiding agricultural projects and deserves
the cooperation of Ell Centrans IN Its
endeavor to further the valleys interests.
Farm. bureau officials may be Justly
proud of number of achievements tor
which they are responsible, chief OF
which is the lower freight rates on hay
shipped from the valley to Eastern
points. These low freight rates enable
the local, rancher to compete with hay
growers in Arizona and afford him new
markets for his products.
The farm bureau has safeguarded the
prosperity of the farmer in demanding
tariff duties on products imported IN
competition with those grown locally,
and it has also prevented hay being I'M
ported under the guise of waste, thus en-
abling the importer to avoid the customs
duty required for alfalfa hay.
Increased service depends upon m
creased membership and it is with this
thought in mind that farm bureau men,
bers will conduct their drive tomorrow.

I'VE have every reason TO be-
Neve," said Manager Bob Hays OF
the El Centre Chamber Of Com
merce today. that the so-called
contract airmail No. 80, now flying
from Los Angeles to Phoenix di-
ect, will be re-routed through San
Diego and Imperial Valley and that
The Imperial County airport will
become a port of call for the SOUTH
ern airmail.
There are a number Of reasons.
One of the most hopeful of these is
the number of airmail fans who
are sending in self addressed envel-
opes bearing airmail stamps with
the request that these be mailed
f,om 81 Centre on the day that the
first airmail plane stops here. Ev-
cry day brings requests OF this sort
and these airmail fans evidently
know what is in the wind.
The chamber staff acknowledges
these requests and is preserving the
a;rmail envelopes to be sent out
when airmail service through I'm
perial Valley is inaugurated. II Is
possible that at that time" Hays
states, "a special commemorative
envelope viii be printed and dis
tributed to the people of El Centre
to use on the day that the airmail
service commences"
Recent copies of the air COM

ton of the aeronautical branch Of

mail route now. Planes stop
there daily in both directions.
If Ell Centre is to have per.
manent airmail we must show
our need by using the airmail.
Remember that at the present
time, while southern airnlail is
flown in the day time pending light
ing of the south transcontmental
airway, we are exactly on a parity
with Los Angeles, San Diego and
Phoenix because mail dispatched
from Ell Centre at 8:15 p. m. each
evening catches the same airmail
plane that leaves Los Angeles in
the early morning.
The people of Ell Centro should
patronize the airmai now to indi-
cate to the department the demand
and need Of it here and then when
night flying begins We may be as
sured of the designation of the Inn
perial County airport as stopping
place for the mails. We are en-
couraged by the visit yesterday OF
Marshall c. Hoppin, government
airport specialist, who came TO the
Imperial County airport to inspect
the same and to give it its official
governmental rating, evidently In
preparation for the establishment
of airmail service here, providing
the poundage OF airmail in the
meantime indicates a justification
for this service"
Manager Hays reminded the peo-
pie of Ell Centro Of tomorrows

E. Erwin will be the principal speak
er and will tell of the progress OF

as "airways under construction" for
night operations.
This is the so-called southern
route with stops at Los Angeles,
San Diego, Imperial Valley, Phoe-
nix, Tucson, Douglas, Ell Paso and
ether ports in Central Texas, ter
minating at Dallas. This is appar-
emily for the re-routing of the
southern airmail, and evidently the
route to be followed when lighting
is completed and the southern air.
mail is flown at night.
Urges Use
"The most effective way Of as
suring airmail service and airmail
planes for El Centro and Imperial
Valley" Hays continued. 'is for the
people of the community TO use
the airmail plentifully and use 1t
now. Remember Postmaster Jen-
kins keeps a record Of all airrnail
deposited in his office as do all the

these figres in deiding on 1mper-

the airmail and a need therefor we
shall have airmail The poundage
Of airmail is the thing which will
decide the question.
Douglas, Arizona, was on 60

whether or not that commune

have to make delivery at a lower price
than that at which they bought.
Beyond any doubt the short-seller has
been something Of nuisance during the
last few months Time and again he has
served to drive prices down. He is
gambler, pure and simple. He cares
nothing about the condition of the coun-
try or the welfare of industry general
lv; he is interested only in speculatlrg
on the decline, and he has had number
of field days during the last year.
But in our eagerneSS to put natter
on the bear trader, it will not do for us
to assume that the bear trader is solely
responsible for the stock market crash
of a year ago. He is not the only type of
specuator whose influence is damaging
to the country at large. The bull-the
speculator who buys in the expectation
OF a rise-can be quite as harmful
factor, if not more so.
Consider the case for moment For
fully three years previous to October OF
1929 we had had bull market. Prices
had constantly been rising, so that mill
lions of people caught the fever and
plopped their savings into the market.
Everyone was Notwithstanding on
continuous rise in prices.
AS an inevitable result, the prices of
stocks went soaring up out of all pro-
portion to their true value. People
bought stocks at twice and three times
their intrinsic worth. The market gave
the appearance of perfect health, but
was extremely sick under the surface.
Naturally enough, a crash had to come.
It came, and prices went tumbling. OF
course, once the crash started the bears
got busy, and helped it along; but the
prime cause of the crash was not the
bears, but the bulls who had built the
market up to such shaky position that
a mere shove would send it topping.
The bear is not the only danger. Some
times the bull can be equally bad influ-
ence. The point is worth keeping N
mind

"Oh, I slipped on the ice and fell,

Wiggily was carrying two frying
pans with the handles off. He was
taking them to the jolly tinker dog
to have them mended, I guess. But
when chased him and fell, Uncle
Wiggily fastened the frying par
handles on his paws with strips torn
from his handkerchief and then he
skated away from me and hoped
into the tinker's shop before I could
catch him."
We'll, regular skates, or skates
made from frying pan handles, it's
all the same as long as he got away,
said the Wolf gloomily.
What are we going to do about
it?" asked the Fox.
About what?" the Bob Cat want
ed to know.
About catching Uncle Wiggily, OF
course" went on the Fox. He Is
still in the shop of the jolly tinker
dog, but when he comes out we
might throw snowballs at him,
knock him down or plaster his eyes
shut and then we could catch him!
Eh, what?"

Cat. Not half"

the ice and snow to the shcp Of the
Jolly dog tinker Truly enough, Un-
Gle Wiggily was inside, having come
to get the tinker to fasten back on
the frying pans the handles that had
come off. Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy
needed the pans to fry carrot mush
for the rabbit children.
There you are, Uncle Wiggily!"
barked the tinker dog as he finished
fastening the handles on the frying
pans. They are as good as new.

pans"
They would be more like snow
shoes" barked the jolly dog tinker
mo, I would advise you to go the
longer way around the road" said
the tinker. II think it will be safe
with the Bob Cat out of the way"
Holding the mended frying pans
by their handles, Uncle Wiggily left
the shop of the jolly tinker dog. But
no sooner had he gone little way
than up from back of some bushes
popped the Fox. the Wolf and the
Bob Cat, each with snowballs in his
paws.
- "Crack him! Bank him! Pop
himi" cried the three hungry Bad
Chaps.
"Oh, dearl Here they are!'
cried Uncle Wiggily
He began to run. After him came
the hungry animals. They began
TO throw Snowballs as fast as they
could, making them whiZz around
the cars of Uncle Wiggily.
"Oh, if they hit me on the head
and knock me down they'll surely
catch mel" thought the rabbit. Then
he remembered the frying pans he
carried. Quickly he raised them up
over his head, like shields the old
time soldiers used. The air seemed
filled with flying snowballs, thrown
by the bad chaps. But did any of
them hit Uncle Wiggily?
We'll, no, not on the head!" said
the bunny, telling Of his adventure
afterward. "All the snowballs the
Bad Chaps threw at me landed on
the frying pans. Bang Bang! Bang!
The snowballs ratified on the pans
and bounced off but they didn't hurt
me and got safely home to my
bungalow"
Fooled again!" howled the Bad
Chaps as they skunk hungrily away.
