Police Arrest
Three Boys In
Local Crimes

Climaxing many hours of search
ing investigation, Ell Centro police
last night arrested three youths,
one IA, one Is and the other 16
years old, for three recent burg
laries, securing confessions and re-
covering what part of the stolen
goods had not been disposed of.
The boys were placed under ar
rest by Jack Carter, r. r. Voyles
and Ben Cox early this morning
after night of investigation which
followed a tip as to the identity of
the persons who recently burglar
lied the Central pool hall and the
Valley drug store.
The pool hall was burglarized
twice and the drug store once.
Cigarettes, candy and other small
articles were taken in each case.
After Carter talked to the youth
full prisoners last night they ad-
mitted the burglaries, he said, and
agreed TO turn over to him the re-
mainder of the stolen goods. An
officer went to one boys home,
where several packs of cigarettes
and other articles were found.
In all three cases the youths en-
tered the buildings through the
skylights, escaping either the same
way or through rear windows.

New Hospital Now Building

So far as possible Ell Centro labor
is being used in construction of the
new hospital being erected by Wal
ter Bargum at Tenth and Hamilton
streets according to statement by
Glen Elwcod Smith, architect, to
Robert Hays, manager of the Ell
Centre Chamber of Commerce. Smith
stated at chamber of commerce
headquarters that ID men out of
18 at work upon this construction
project are Ell Ceutro residents. All
but one of the sub-contractors, it
was stated by Contractor Baker, are
local organizations.
The chamber o. commerce was
informed that work is progressing
at a satisfactory rate of speed on
the new building and that it is very
sure to be finished and ready for
use by November l. The foundation
has been completed and building of
the outside walls began yesterday,
Bargum, Smith and Baker have
shown commendable spirit" said
Hays 'by insisting that so far as
it is possible local labor be used on
this hospital building. Plaster man
ufactured at Plaster City will be
used following request of the cham
ber of commerce, which is doing
everything possible to have local
labor and local materials used in
ell Ell Centro construction. Usually,
cooperation in these matters is
readily given and we feel that much
new money has been placed in cir
culation in Ell Centro through the
employment of local
labor and the use of locally pro-
duced building materials. A dollar
spent for labor in Ell Centro is
used five times"

WILDCAT TRUCK
PATRONS LIABLE
TO PUNISHMENT

Holding shippers equally liable to
punishment for misuse Of the pub
lie highways in the transportation
of freight, the California State
Railroad commission has unsheathed
a new and powerful weapon in its
fight to curb the activities of So
called wildcat" truck operations,
it was disclosed here today.
The commissions readiness at
this time to exert its full author
ity by proceeding against those who
laid and abeG" violations of the
laws governing truck lines was de-
clared emphatically in decisions
finding five truck owners and
companies guilty of operating with
out permits.
1t was held, according to the an
nouncement, that the truck owners
in question were operating illegally
as common carriers, in competition
with certificated motor lines and
railroads. They were ordered to
cease operations
Particular attention was called to
the fact that a violation of the
order would constitute contempt,
punishable by fine or Imprisonment,
and that persons patronizing il
legal truck lines are also subject to
penalties provided by law. The
commission directed that copies of
the order be served on shippers in
volved in the cases.
BY taking cognizance for the first
time of violations of the law by
shippers as well as wildcat" truck
operators, the commission indicated
it's intention to take drastic action
to protest the interests of the state
and its legalized carriers against
unlawful and ruinous competition,
according to word received here.

He is good pitcher, but we hit him

Yesterday was much better game
than the opener, because it had all
the earmarks of being hard-fought
battle, and worked out that way.
The infields of both teams showed
up to advantage, and Chapman, in

In our own backyard. we will turn
