Hello, Anne or Martha!"
And it always turns out to be
the other one.
They are sisters Of the Bobby
Ginsburgh, whose picture with
his rabbit, Peter, we ran a week
or so ago.
Sad Story
You remember about Peter.
The latest development is that
the bunny again escaped from
his cage and went over to the
neighbor's house and nibbled
some grass, and she was madder
than ever. So mad that Bobby's
mother decided he had to give
Peter away. Which we think
was very sad.
To talk about something not
quite so heart rending as Bobby's
rabbit and its exile from the
GinSburgh home in Sligo Park

Hoover Minimizes
Railroads Needs

WASHINGTON, March 10. U.P(-
President Hoover said today that
his personal investigation OF the
railway situation had shown that
the financial difficulty confronting
the roads sis of smaller dimensions
than has been generally believed
or reported"
In formal statement, the PreSi-
dent said it was estimated the rail-
roads in 1882 would need between
$300,000,000 and $400,000,000 in
loans. He said the railroads own
credit corporation would provide
from $50,000,0O0 to 60,000,000 OF
this, and that most of the bank
loans would be continued lin the
normal way"
Hoover emphasized that the
chief problem was ito handle the
situation as a whole so as to lay
the foundations for restored en-
Payment on the railroads. He
again pointed out that the rail-
roads were one of the key indus
tries in the nations economic
structure.

PILGRIMAGE TO
LINCOLN'S TOMB
PROVIDES ALIBI

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, March 19.
U.P)-A pilgrimage to the tomb of
Abraham Lincoln here in October,
1929, will be the alibi next month
of A. E. Beesmer, Fremont, Neb,
against a charge said to have been
placed against him by Glendale,
Calf, authorities, it was disclosed
here today.
Officials of the state department
of public works and buildings sup
piled Beesmer with the alibi when
they complied with a request of
his mother, RS. A. c. Beesmer, Glen
dale, by forwarding her the regis
tration sheet which her son signed
when ne visited the tomb here more
than two years ago
Search for the registration sheet
required several days as officials
had to look through numerous old
files in a local storage house where
the papers were placed when the
tomb was remodeled a year ago.
In requesting the information
her sons presence at Lincoln's
tomb in October, 1929, Mrs. Beesmer
did not reveal the nature of the
charge against her son.

Sues To Recover
Attached Truck

Possession of a motor truck, $500
for the costs of repairing it and
for depreciation, and $500 a month
for its use from September 5, 1881,
until it is delivered, are sought in
a suit filed in superior court to-
day by D. H. Lyou against Dale
Ramsey and w. A. Tondro as part
ners in the Safety Corner service
station.
In case the truck cannot be de-
livered, Lyou asked $3.50 as its
reasonable value.
The defendants obtained possess
sion of the truck through an at
tachment suit, and after they paid
to the Security Investment COM
pany, then legal owner, $542.75 still
due when the attachment was lev
led. Ramsey and Tondro ordered
the attachment released September
5, taking possession of the truck
and converting it to their personal
use, the complaint charged.
The complaint further said the
suit in which the attachment was
levied has never been tried or
brought into court, and no judg-
ment was ever rendered.

Everyone knows that Easter is

sirable and most of us enjoy a

together gives opportunity for
much speculation as to what they
stand for.
The rabbit looks even wiser to-

ANDERSON MAKES
STATEMENT ON
HIS CANDIDACY

Charles E. Anderson, who seeks
place on the city council, today
gave the following statement in
connection with his candidacy:
I'm placing my name before the
people of El Centro for the city
council I wish to state that I have
been a resident of Imperial county
most of the time since 1914, and
for the past seven years a taxpayer
in the city of El Centre. The time
I spent away from Imperial county
since 1914 was spent on conStruc-
ton work of the same type that
confronts the city of Ell Centre to-
day.
II have made no promises to any
one, and can only say that if the
people of El Centro see fit to elect
me to the city council, I will en-
deavor to do what I can to make
my term a business administration
and help to handle the city bust
ness as I would my own.
Handling the affairs of the city
is the same as a large corporation
and should be handled with as
much care for the taxpayers as for
the stockholders in any corpora
ton.
"I am for any justified improve
ments, but I am not in favor of
spending money needlessly as I am
of Scotch descent. I expect the
city of Ell Centro to expand dur
ing the next four years and with
the support of the people of Ell
Centro, I will try, if elected, to help
its expansion in the right direction
(Signed) CHAS. z. ANDERSON.

URGES HAY men
OF VALLEY TO
GET TOGETHER

That Imperial Valley hay grow
ers should act together to stabilize
the price of hay is the opinion of
Roy l.. Wood, hay grader, who re-
ports that U. S. No. l hay is selling
in some parts of the valley for $40
and in other parts for $12.
With Imperial Valley and Yuma
the only regions where new hay is
being put up, local farmers are in
an excellent position, Wood de-
clared, to set a fair price, as there
is very little hay in the Los An-
geles market. Dairymen have been
feeding green alfalfa and when the
supply is exhausted there will be
no hay obtainable except from
these two districts. Buyers, of
course, are anxious TO obtain hay
as reasonably as possible, but when
U. S. No. is sold for $12 in one
district all hay of that grade
should receive the same price. II
will be at least 80 days, Wood
stated, before Antelope Valley and
Northern California will be able
to market hay.
Wood also reports that the move
ment of valley hay to the Atlantic
seaboard is starting, q number of
shipments having been loaded at
San Pedro on ships which will take
it through the Panama canal to the
Atlantic coast.
Over 10000 tons of valley. hay
were shipped last year to the At
lantic seaboard and shipments in.
dicate that a good start has been
made for this season. Wood pointed
out that if $4,000 tons of valley
hay were marketed in the East, the
Los Angeles market would un-
doubtedly strengthen.

COMEDY FILMS
HAVE CALL AT
FOX IMPERIAL

Comedy holds sway at Fox I'm
perial theatre over the weekend,
with Ladies of the Jury" being
presented tonight and The Greeks
Had a Word for Them being the
Sunday and Monday attraction.
Ladies of the Jury" presents in
leading roles, several comedians
who have gained their regulations
in this particular line but have not
heretofore been given the prom
inence their work deserves.
Edna May Oliver and Roscoe
Ates, famed for their comedy work
in "Cimearron", have leading parts
in the play, with Ken Murray, Kate
Price, Gum Williams and Kitty
Kelly also having important roles.
The plot deals with the doings of
group of women on a jury, and
is full of amusing situations.
THE Greeks Had a Word for
Them" tells the story of three girl
muketeerS, who go out after big
ger and better millionaires and
whose squabbling among themselves
offers opportunity for much COM
edy.
Ina Claire, Madge Evans, Joan
Blondell, David Maners, Lowell
Sherman, Phillips Smalley and Sid
ney Bracy have the leading roles.
The three chorus girsl in their
search for susceptible rich men,
are not fussy whether the latter
be young or old as long as they
have money. Complications con-
tinually arise and the plot is twist
ed considerably as the story is un-
raveled, but never forgets that its
chief object is to cause laughs and
lots of them.

also must be done well.
