DOCTORS WILL
NOT BE ASKED
FOR DECISION

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Jan. T.
Duplicating effects of the Drink
er respirator upon an 1l-year- -old
girl and the apparent improve
ment of a 13-year-old boy averted
a possible choice by physicians as
to which should live if they reached
a crisis.
Lucille Zopfi, lay in the "mechan-
ical lung" which had kept her
alive "a days. Unknown to her,
Donald johnson. fellow infantile
paralysis victim is in an adjoining
room.
Lucille today was able to breathe
unaided for more than an hour at
a time. She had been removed
tor a short period every three hours
as a measure to strengthen her
lung muscles.
Donald. meanwhile, has been
kept alive by doctors and nurses.
Today his condition showed
change for the better, they said.
A conference of the children's
parents was called when Donalds
lung muscles required artificial
help. Physicians contemplated al
ternating the two in the machine
but both showed improvement and
the choice appeared improbable, for
the time being.

DISTRIBUTION OF
STATE GAS TAX
MAY BE CHANGED

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. z.
U.P)-The first gun in the long pre-
oicted attempt to upset the present
distribution Of the gasoline tax
was fired in the state legislature
today by Assemblywoman Eleanor
Miller of Pasadena.
She announced introduction Of
two bills which would divert money
for eliminating grade crossings.
Two bills on the subject are ready,
one to appropriate five per cent of
the money available to the high
way commission for this purpose
and the other to appropriate four
millian dollars yearly from the
gasoline tax fund.
Past suggestions that the gaso-
line tax or motor vehicle funds be
diverted for other than strictly
highway building purposes have
been bitterly condemned by auto
mobile associations and others in
terested in the motor vehicle in
dustry. Miss Miller said.
A resolution memorializing con.

Relief
Action Blocked

WASHINGTON, Jan. Z. U.n)-
Attempts to take the drought re-
lief bill from Speaker Longworth's S
desk for action by the house failed
again today.
Reference to conference again
was blocked by Representative La
Guardia, Republican, New York,
who insisted that the bill should be
sent back to committee to provide
aid for city sufferers. Democratic
members sought vainly to get i'm
mediate consideration by the house.
Republican leaders plan to wait
a day or two and then bring in
special rule for consideration of the
bill, in order to check attempts to
add the SIS 5,O00, 900 for food loans

JURY DECLARES
OLIVAS Staying
WAS JUSTIFIED

Two Ell Centro police officers were
justified in shooting and killing
Jose Olivas Monday night, according
to the decision reached by a coro"
ner's jury here late yesterday after"
noon.
The inquest was the first held un-
der the regime of A. r. Underwood

port that burglar was in the house
of Margaret Giles at ISL Olive street
When the officers appeared the
Mexican ran, but collided with At
kinson and attacked him with a
knife. The officers fired three shots
apiece. Five struck Olivas.
The coroner's jury returned the
following verdict:
I'VE, the coroner's jury, find that
James Olivas came to his death on
January S by gunshot wounds from
guns in the hands of w, j. Atkinson
and Arch o. Bratton, Ell Certro po-
lice officers, while in performance
OF official duty, the said Jose Olivas
having Just burglarized the home OF
Margaret Giles, ISL Olive street. Ell
Centre, said Jose Olivas having at
tackled Officer Atkinson With large
knife.
From evidence, we, the jury, find
the officers justified in shooting.
An interesting development in the
case is the number of people who
have called at Lemons Undertaking
establishment to view the body.

selves that Olivas is the same man
they saw at various times prowling
about their houses. Several voiced
satisfaction that he is the burglar

ISSUES BULLETIN
ON HANDLING OF
FROSTED TREES

Frank G.. Beyschlag, farm advisor,
has issued a timely bulletin on the
treatment of frozen citrus trees
which will be of interest to many
Imperial Valley growers. a number
of whom suffered losses from the
recent frostS.
The bulletin itself is too long to
be given in its entirety, and those
wishing additional information may
obtain it at the farm advisors office
in the court house.
Opening with the statement that
the recent cold spell has injured
some citrus groves to such an extent
that many questions are being asked
,egarding the pruning, irrigation
and fertilization of frozen trees,
Beyschlag goes on to say that rec
ords are available ON treatments
which growers and agricultural
workers have tried after previous
Geezes.
These records, some of which are
concerned with experimental work
done in Imperial Valley after the
freeze in December of 1924, give
quite definite information as to the
best methods of caring for frosted
trees.
Beyschlag discusses the expert
ments and the records quite fully
and ends with the statement that
these studies of treatments after
former freezes may be summarized
by recommending the following care
of injured trees:
/. That the exposed trunks and
branches be white washed with cold
water paint.
2. That any splits in the bark be
Immediately tied in place with coarse
string and several months later that
the dead bark be cleaned out.
8. That the pruning of the injured
trees be postponed until June.
4. Frost injuries and pruning
wounds should be covered with bor-
deauX paste and later with q water
proof pruning paint.
5. In tree in which the top has
been killed but in which the tissues
above the bud union are uninjured,
that shoot be trained from above
the bud to form a new top. This
is more economical and quicker than
replacing with a new nursery tree.
Where the tree is injured below the
bud it is often more practical to re-
place the tree.
6. AS with normal trees, that the
frequency and amount of irrigation
should be determined by careful ex-
animation of the soil mixture con-
ditions in the root feeding areas of
the trees.
7. A normal program of fertiliza-
ton should be followed.
