the proposed centennial exposition
on the harbor front of San Diego,
literally at the gate of the city"
He stated that, following so close
~ on the heels of the Chicago ex-
position of 1888 San Diego will be
able to get some valuable exhibits
from foreign countries, various
states OF this country and manu-
facturers who will already have
prepared exhibits for the Chicago
exposition and will send them to
San Diego upon the completion OF
that celebration.
To the criticism that it would
seem a mistake to have an expos
ition under present economic con-
ditionS Collier replied that there is
no agency equal to an exposition
for the promotion of a community
and publicizing of its natural re-
sources. In addition to promoting
San Diego, he pointed out, it
would bring tourist travel to all
cities and towns on the highways
leading to that city.
The San Diego group is in I'm
perial Valley to sell stamps adver-
tising the proposed exposition.
Colonel Collier also invited the
people Of FL Centro to attend In
perial Valley day of La Feria de
Sierra, an annual festival sponsored
by the Sons of the Pacific and
American Legion in the coast city,
which will include a pageant de-
picting the life of Father Junipero
Sierra, a parade of floats from all
the countries on the Pacific ocean
and many other forms of entertain
ment and amusement. Mayor John
T. Rice of FL Centro has been ap-
pointed honorary member of the
Feria de Sierra executive commit
tee and July 2, has been set aside
as Imperial Valley day at this cell

TRUCKMEN PLAN
OPPOSITION TO
TAX AMEND MIENT'

Allied Truck Owners of Califor-
MIA plan a vigorous campaign in
opposition TO . proposed constitu-
tional amendment to be presented
to the voters at the November
election, according to Ed Royce,
secretary Of the local organization
CT truck owners, who states:
There is a petition being circu-
lated at this time to amend the
Constitution at the next general
election which viii eliminate all of
the larger trucks and trailers on
the highways and will increase the
taxation on the smaller trucks of
which % per cent are privately
owned, or in other words, are used
TO deliver the owners goods. 1t
will increase the license approx
mately 10 times what they are now
I paying. Those who are now paying
So viii have to pay $28 and those
1 paying $43 will have to pay SAB.
In order to put this unfair and
unjust taxation over, the promot-
/ ers first propose 10 lessen the gaso-
line tax one cent per gallon, think
ing that this will catch all automo-
bill operators not directly interested
in trucking operations This how
ever will set transportation back
approximately 20 years. 1t sets the
maximum gross load Of $4,000
pounds, or six tons net load. The
length being reduced to 35 feet
will eliminate practically all trail
ers. This will indirectly increase
the cost of living Of everyone. It
will eliminate the large trucks and
trailers that have been handling
% 10 % tons at less expense than
will the siX-tOn loads if this prop
Csition becomes a law.
There are 1900 truck owners in
the state, some Of whom were look
ing forward to some such legisla-
ton and organized themselves into
what is known as the Allied Truck
owners. This organization was
formed last October and has been
growing rapidly ever since. They
are now organized in Imperial
county. Their next meeting will be
held at the Imperial hotel, Imper-

Here's a shopping hint
for rainy weather:

Why go traipsing about in the
rain, when you can sit snugly at
home and order your food by
phone? That's one of the joys of
using canned foods-you don't
have to 60 to the store to select
just what you want. Simply tell
your grocer the brand or label to
send. You know that the food
inside the can will be the kind
YOU like and want - same in
quality and grade without
chance of disappointment, so far
as quantity and favor are con-
cerned.

PAY ROLL INCREASE
SHOWN IN SURVEY
Employment Gained OF Per
Cent and Wages 0.3
During December.

An increase in employment of OF
per cent and raise in pay roll totals
OF 0.3 per cent during December was
reported by the Labor Department yes
terday upon tabulation of returns re-
ceived from 1884 establishments in Is
major industrial groups.
The statistics revealed there were
4,572, ,588 men and women actually en-
ployed by these establishments during
the month and their combined weekly
earnings totaled S101 ,655, ,164.
Increased employment was shown in
3 of the Is industrial groups, the
retail trade group reporting the usual
large seasonal increase in employment,
rejecting the Christmas trade, while
small increases in employment were re-
ported in the crude petroleum and the
soft coal industries.
Other Groups Decline.
In the remaining II groups in which
both decreased employment and earn
ingS were reported, reductions in en-
ployment of l per cent or less were
shown in manufacturing, wholesale
trade and laundries, while slightly
larger declines were reported in the
power -light-water. electric railroad
operations, hotels and metalliferous
mining groups.
The anthracite mining and dyeing
and cleaning groups reported decreases
of "A and 5.8 per cent, respectively. in
employment, and the quarrying and
non-metallic mining and the canning
and preserving groups reported pro-
nonnced declines due to the seasonal
closing OF establishments in these two
groups. The department said employ
ment and earnings in manufacturing
remained practically unchanged in No
vember and December, both employ
ment and earnings showing a decrease
OF only two-tenths of l per cent over
the interval
These changes we're based upon re-
turns made by 1895 establishments in
"a Of the principal manufacturing in
dustrles, having in December 2,52l ,l61
employees, whose combined earnings in
one week were 52,296,003.
