Weird Ideas Are Offered, Always
 At a Price
BY PAUL HARRISON NEA Service Writer

New York.-Just at the begin ming of the Broadway theatrical season, two almost identical ex- travaganzas have come to town. One is called "Just Around the Corner with Roosevelt and Gar ner": the other, Who But Hoov- er?-Hooray!"
 They're both rehearsing in the respective campaign headquarters of the republican and democratic parties here.
 Collectively, the Political Follies of 1882 comprise a three-million- 2 dollar effort of several hundred persons working in scores of four Manhattan skyscrapers to elect one president of the United States.
 There are numerous supers, stage settlers, press agents and idea men," all of whom seem to have speaking parts. Gag-men and song writers are storming the producing offices. Novelty salesmen are crashing the gates variously dis guised as Charles Curtis, Will Rog- CTS and Mrs Ella Boole. Everyone else, including the Forgotten Man, is looking for pob.
 Democrats Head Start
 The democrats got the jump on their rivals this year because they had a pre-conventoin campaign under way, with a cast of 40, long before the republican show came to town. It was no trick to ex- pand this to a national headquar- ters. To provide the customary note of confusion, however, they had to move into three different buildings.
 So now, if you go, to the top floor of the Liggett building to

offices for various officials, includ- ing James Farley. the campaign manager, and Frank Walker. the bay treasurer. You also find that Senator Jitterwhisk hmas just left for teh middle west.
 These places are hard to get out of. too, because of the job seekers and the novelty. song and slogan salesfolk. Apparently. they work on the theory that if they talk to everybody they sometime will find the right man.
 "Vote for This Mug''
 The people with democratic lunches, however, eventually gravitate to Tom Peters, a public ity expert. Those with republican lunches go to the Waldorf-Astoria with some weird idea of see- ing George Akerson, one-time secretary to President Hoover and now publicity director for eastern headquarters. ..
 Puzzles. pop-guns and posters, auto accessories. even cakes of soap, are made to bear stirring messages about the candidates. One man dragged a huge "Hoov- CT" beach umbrella int oAkerson's office and wsa amazed to learn that republicans, as such, don't go swimming much in November. Another went to Peters with a shaving cup bearing Roosevelt's picture. The slogan was:- Vote for this Mug"
 Many an ardent citizen is saying it with poetry this year, and most expect to be paid for this. Eight girls at each headquarters do noth- ing but ope nand sort such things, along with thousands of letters telling how the campaigns should be run.
 Cong Writing in Vain
 Polittcally-minded and aspiring lyricists are revamping the words of all the old ballads and popular tunes for campaign songs. The hard-boiled Tin-Pan Alley boys, with original songs, crash right in and sing their offerings to anybody who will listen.
 is being considered for purchase. year for both parties. At the Wal dorf, where the republicans have 40 rooms on one floor, the office furniture has been borrowed-and looks it. Even Akerson's private desk is but Q few years short of being an antique.
 At g. O. p. headquarters, the routine is elaborate enough to have been devised by great en- gineer. A caller there is shunted to a side entrance of the hotel where he is confronted by at least two receptionists. These young women make extended inquiries in dubious voices. engage in tele- phone conversations with the up- per regions and finally fill out a colored card.
 Elderly Gentlemen
 This card. ones ticket of ad- mission, is examined by an elderly gentleman who gives 1t to another elderly gentleman who conducts the called to an elevator. On the eighth floor third elderly gentle man scans the card and hands it to a fourth elderly gentleman (this one distinguished by morn- ing clothes and goatee) who takes the visitor to recep- ton room.
 This room is filled with scowl- ing people who have conflicting

THREE ACCUSED
PLEAD GUILTY TO
ROBBERY CHARGE

Putting a sudden period to court
proceedings in their case, Willard
Gardner. Glen1 Wilcox and Bud
Parker today appeared before Judge
A. c. Finney to plead guilty to high
way robbery, after waving a pre-
liminary hearing yesterday after
noon before Judge I. Mayfield III
justice court.
The three youthful robbers also
waived time for sentence, but they
still were being questioned at noon,
and the hearing was continued un-
til this afternoon.
The three admitted, by their plea
of guilty, robbing j. j. Amador,
used car salesman for the Inland
Motor company, by first asking for
a demonstration. and then forcing
him to ride with them onto the
desert east of Holtville, where they
made him get out OF the car.
While the trio was being ques-
toned by Judge Finney, the River
side officers were waiting on a
slight hope they may obtain a stay
of execution of the penitentiary
sentence which must be passed on
at least two of the offenders, in
order the two may be taken to
Riverside for trial on another rob-
berry charge.
Undersheriff w. w. Walrath and
Deputy Lloyd Boiler of Riverside
are the officers. Through confess
sions obtained here by Tom Sharp,
investigator for the district attor
ney, the Riverside officials were
enabled to arrest Ray Bradley,
Buck Norton and Stanley Ford in
the other county on a charge of
robbery in two counts.
Staged Hold-Ups
According to the officers, Parker
and Wilcox were with the three in
Riverside county when they held
up an Italian family. The same
family was held up on two differ
ent occasions. The first time the
robbers obtained $3.50 in cash and
the second time they took $50
In addition to the money the
bandits took a radio. a diamond
stick pin, a diamond ring, four
watches, an electric percolator, a
% revolver, a .38 revolver, a barrel
of wine and an assortment of cheap
jewelry.
The large calibre revolver taken
in the Riverside hOld-up was the
same used by Parker, Wilcox and
Gardner in holding up Amador,
officers said.
In court this morning Parker and
Wilcox admitted the hold-up, and
Gardner was to be questioned this
afternoon. From testimony given
on the witness stand it appeared
Parker was the moving spirit OF
the trio while they were in this
county
He admitted the Riverside rob-
berries, and testified he had paid
two fines for bootlegging.
Parker was driving the car, with
Amador in the front seat anc
Gardner and Wilcox in the real
seat during the robbery, testimony
disclosed.

RESEARCH REVEALS
ALL.BRAN RICH IN
HEALTH.ELEMENTS
Helps Correct Constipation
with Bulk" and Vitamin B;
Also Has Iron

Recent scientific research shows
that kellogg's ALL-BRAN contains
two things needed to overcome tenn
porary and recurring constipation.
1t has bulk" to exercise the intes-
tines, and Vitamin b to tone the
intestinal tract.
These two important food-ele-
ments promote regular habits, and
help do away with the headaches,
loss of appetite and energy, so often
the result of constipation.
The ''bulk" in ALL-BRAN is mild
in action - much like that of let
tuce. Inside the body, it forms a
soft mass, which gently clears the
intestines of wastes. Special cook
ing processes make ALL-BRAN finer,
softer, more palatable.
Isn't this pleasant "cereal way"
far more healthful than using pills
and drugs-so often habit-forming?
Just eat two tablespoonfuls of
Kellogg's daily - enough for most
types of constipation. If your in
testinal trouble is not relieved this
way, see your doctor.
Besides, ALL-BRAN brings your
body twice as much bodybuilding
iron as an equal amount by weight
of beef liver.
Equally tasty as n cereal with
milk or cream, or used in cooking.

Tomorrow morning the Ell Centre
Food center at SCI Main street will
open its doors for the first time,
offering to the buying public an
to purchase standard
brand groceries at reduced prices.
r. L. Foster. owner of the store,
selected FL Centro as the site for
his new store after an intensive in
vestigation of other localities IN
Southern California. He decided
that this city was the best location
as to prosperity and general en-
couraging business conditions. He
has had a store in Los Angeles for
II years.
The new stock is being placed on
the shelves today in the building
which was redecorated throughout
and in which all new fixtures were
installed this week.
A complete line Of groceries, will
be handled at the store which will
operate on a strictly cash basis.
The cash system, Foster explained
today. enables him to offer to the
housewives of FL Centre the best of
groceries at tempting reductions.
Fruits and vegetables will be
transported to the store by means
of a special service, permitting
their arrival here III first class con-
dition. This service will bring to

CITY TO VOTE ON
BOND ISSUE FOR
SEWER SYSTEM

That the question of bond issue
TO finance construction of a new
outfall sewer system for Ell Centro
probably will be placed before vot-
ers at the regular city election in
April was the statement today of
Phil Knights, city engineer, who
last night reported to the city coun-
Gil on progress of plans for the new
system.
knights told councilmen last
night that final plans for a new
alignment have been worked out,
and that work is going ahead now
in order that the issue may be pre-
sented to voters in April.
These plans call for an outfall
sewer line which will miss Imperial
entirely, and will be constructed at
a total cost of approximately $40
900. This cost includes the expense
of running an additional line to
take in Imperial, and includes also
the acquisition of a right Of way.
knights also reported on a recent
conference with Burns Mcdonnell
Smith of Los Angeles, consulting
engineers. Plans for the proposed
new line were submitted to this
firm for improvement and criticism.
A new sewer system has been
made necessary because of the de-
cayed and dangerous condition of
the present system, in which there
have been several collapses.
Other business considered by the
council last night included passage
IA second reading of an ordinance
to control marathons, valuations
and such enterprises. This ordin-
ance places stringent rules on pro-
moters of such ventures.
Insurance came up for discus
sion, but the matter was continued
for consideration at the next meet
ing after policies of various COM
panies had been submitted.
DR.. Warren F. Fox submitted a
copy of a report sent to the United
States Public Health Service, COW
ering the activities of his public
health office.
