4 JOKE on Us

ADDING to the woes of the taxpayers
n is not a popular matter these days,
nevertheless we cannot refrain from
commenting on a condition that exists
here in Imperial Valley and which IS
proving a costly one to the taxpayer
However, the taxpayer in this case is
not confined to Imperial Valley but eV-
cry taxpayer in the country is included.
We refer to the presence of 150 Chin
ese now in the county jail here,
awaiting transportation to China at the
hands of a generous government. Not
their own government. but the govern
ment of the American taxpayer.
In these days we are accustomed to
talk freely of sums ranging in the mil
lions and billions 1t might therefore
seem picayunsh to mention such sum
as S150,000, but when we reflect on
what that amount would do toward re-
lieving numbers of American families, 1t
does seem to be quite a sum-
1t has been estimated that 1t costs the
government approximately $1,000 for
each Chinese who is shipped back to
China, hence the reference to S150,0OO as
representing the amount involved IN
transporting the present boarders at the
county Jail back to their native land.
Apparently nothing can be done to
prevent these Chinese from crossing the
international line at will from Mexico,
and then calmly waiting for the imml-
grafton men to pick them up, serene in
their knowledge that Uncle Sam will
send them home, where they have previ-
ously sent anything they may have in the
line of wealth.
1t might be asked why the immigra-
ton service does not keep the Chinese
from crossing the line. To accomplish
this would require an officer stationed
about every 100 yards at least, along the
entire line, which in the end might cost
more than the $1,000 per head which it
costs the taxpayer at present.
Mexico can hardly be asked to keep
the Chinese within her borders. With
the present scarcity Of work there Mex
leo is only too glad to get rid of the
Chinese and doubtless believes that her
wealthy neighbor on the north can handle
the Chinese without any difficulty.
Committing the Chinese to Jail or
prison is no solution of the problem.
They would have to be fed and cared
for there.
The joke seems to be on Uncle Sam
and the American taxpayer. 1t is
laughing matter, but all the laughing is
being done by the Chinese. And they
keep on coming.

WASHINGTON, April g. -
Washington. perhaps more than
any other American city, has es-
capped the full force of the de-
preston. 1t is easy to understand.
1t is about the only city in the
world that is devoted entirely TO
the business of government. It
has no industries and wants none.
Its only n-governmental busi-
ness is that connected with the
feeding. clothing, transportation,
shelter and amusement Of the
thousands of government workers
who live here.
So, when industry, agriculture
and finance go TO the bow vows.
it means little to the general busi-
ness prosperity Of Washington
itself. In fact it may even make
a little more work here. Govern
ment employment has actually in
creased slightly during the last
three years, partly due TO the e.
forts of the government TO stimu-
late business.

CALEXIC0 MANS
DOGS CAPTURE
FANCY PRIZES

Imperial Valleys vegetable and
fruit harvest is known throughout
the world, but another branch of
activity in which this section ex-
GELS was disclosed last week and
when a group of Springer Spaniels,
owned by r. Elliott of Calexico,
swept numerous important prizes
at the Catalina Kennel Club dog
show in Tucson, Ariz.
Elysian Emperor, Elysian Ennis
sary, Elysian Earl and Elysian En-
press, all only eight months old,
proved themselves worthy contend
ers in any company by taking first
places in their various classes and
placing in various other judgings.
Elysian Earl defeated two-year-
old dog TO take first place among
the novice dogs.
Mexicali Rose and Elysian Emil
grant added to the laurels of the
Elliott kennels in other ratings,
the latter being judged best of VIM
ners. best of breed and best sport
ing dog in the show. She also was
declared second best dog in the
show of all breeds.
Frank Simmons, judge, COM
mented after the judging that If
Elysian Emigrant had shown as
we'll in the final judging as she
did in the classes and sporting
group she would have been best in
the show of all breeds. She needs
five more points to complete her
championship, according to her
owner.
Mrs. Weldon Ferguson, one OF
Americas foremost Springer breed
ers, was called upon to present the
cup for the best sporting dog. Mrs.
Ferguson, a we'll known judge at
Americas best dog shows, acclaimed
Elysian Emigrant one of the best OF
her class she has ever seen. Mrs.
Ferguson will take the dog east for
the eastern summer shows, return
ing her to Calexico in the fall.
Mrs. Ferguson's dog, TrexWgns
Trek, is the only dog in the world
with the distinction of being both
English and American field trial
champion.

"Oh, / would love some slippery
elm," said Bunty, who felt very sad
with her bad cold.
I'll go get you some," offered
Uncle Wiggily.
Away he hoped to the woods
where he knew some slippery elm
trees were growing. And this, being
| the spring of the year, was the
best time to get some of the bark,
for it is extra slippery in spring.
Now it happened that the Cross
Bear went to the woods at the
same time Uncle Wiggily did. The
Cross Bear wasn't looking for Sip
perry elm bark, though. He was
looking for a rabbit to nibble And
pretty soon the Cross Bear saw
Uncle Wiggily.
"Ah hal" I'll get hinp growled
the Bear as he watched the rabbit
gentleman gnawing some strips OF
bark off the slippery elm tree.
Pretty soon, carrying the bark
under his paw, Uncle Wiggily
started to hop back to the bunga-
low to cure Baby Bunty's cold
And it did not take the rabbit gen.
tleman long to find out that the
Bear was chasing him.
I'll have to hop fast to get
away from the Cross Bear" said
the rabbit. So he began to hop
very fast. But the Bear ran fast
also, and he was catching up to
the rabbit and stretching out his
big paws to tickle him. Then, all
of a sudden, Uncle Wiggily thought
of a good trick.
This elm bark is very slippery" "
ne whispered. Il have more than
I need for Baby Bunty. I'll drop

Uncle Wiggily, as he ran, dropped
long strip of the slippery elm
bark. The Cross Bear, rushing very
fast, stepped on the bark and then
he slipped and down he fell very
hard ker-bumpo. He banged his
nose SO hard that tears came into
his eyes and he couldn't see for
quite while, so Uncle Wiggily
got safely away to his bungalow.
Then he gave Baby Bunty some
of the bark and it cured her sore
throat.

WILKERSON CONFIRMED

CONFIRMATION of Judge James H.
" Wilkerson for appointment to the
federal court by senate judiciary sub
committee, is one of the good marks to
be chalked up for the present senate.
Judge WilkersOn is the man who sem
fenced Al Capone to prison for II years
1t is not merely this for which the
Judge is entitled to acclaim, however
Such action is not necessarily a mark of
a good Judge, for we recall another
Judge who once fined large corpora
tion tremendous sum on which action
he rose to fame and riches. although his
decision was later reversed by higher
court, this latter fact generally being
overlooked.
Judge Wilkerson was confronted by
bargain made between federal prosecu-
tors and Capone'S attorneys, whereby,
in return for the plea of guilty entered
by the gangster on charge of evading
income tax payments, he would be given
a nominal sentence of two years in
prison.
The Judge refused to recognize the
validity of any such agreement and
handled CapOne the same as he would
any other case, refusing to be intimidat-
ed by threats of gangland. That took
courage and plenty Of it, in view of the
frequently demonstrated ability of gang
land to do as it pleases with those who
go contrary to its wishes.
Concerted effort, backed by gangland,
has been made to prevent confirmation
of Judge Wilkerson to the federal cir
cult court
From his public record to date, there
is every reason to believe that the coun-
try could use many more judges of Judge
Wilkerson'S 5 calibre.
