BETTER TONE IN TRADE
ABROAD is REPORTED
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Gables to the Commerce Department
indicate a better feeling in important
European countries.
A substantial increase in United
Kingdom exports during April as
against a further decline in imports
was related as having caused some en-
couragement, especially the fact that
the export gain was largely in vehicles
and machinery.
Although a more favorable under
tone has developed in German business,
no major factors justifying the expec-
tation of definite improvement have
appeared the seasonal spurts in in
dustry have been below the average Of
recent years, the decline in unemploy-
ment is very slow and it has proved
impossible to maintain high level Of
export trade.

NOT SUCH 4 BAD WAY
w. c. COSTELLO
Manager

A return of the old fashioned ceremony
n that used to take place in the wood
shed, was ordered by Judge Finney in
dealing with recent case in his court,
the fathers of two accused youths be-
ing ordered to appear before proper Off
Gals and administer a sound spanking TO
the offending juveniles.
There can be much discussion on the
proprety and the efficacy of this form
of punishment.
Followers of the new school of thought,
which tells Us to reason with the child,
to persuade him by pointing out the
rightness of right and the wrongneSs of
wrong, and other advanced ideas, will
probably feel that a direct slap has been
taken at the advancement of civilization.
Others, of an older school, will merely
snort and express the opinion that many
other rising juveniles should be punish
ed in this way and it would do a great
deal of good, even perhaps, to eliminat-
ing our crime wave and bringing US out
of our commercial and industrial trou-
bleS
AS believer in a modified form of the
modern school, and postgraduate OF
the older school, we can see merit IN
both.
We firmly believe that there comes
time in the lives of most juveniles, when
session with the strap is good for their
souls, good for their minds, and while
painful on the body, might also be good
for that.
1t appears to us to be better to take
a chance on making boy see the right
by tanning his hide, than by shutting
him up in some institution. If the tan
ming does not work. no great harm has
been done and then we can resort to the
institution.
There are many men who can look
back through their careers and recall
woodshed session which marked the turn
ing point in their lives.
If more youngsters knew that good
spanking awaited them when they did
wrong, we dare say fewer of them would
take the chance. That may be ruling
by fear, but there comes time when
most of us can use a little fear, and
there are other specimens of the genus
homo, chiefly in the embryo stage, who

NEAR TRAGEDY
And ROMANCE
FOR OFFICERS

Two hurried telephone calls, one
flavoring Of tragedy and the other
of humor, sent deputy sheriffs on
fruitleSS trips to the territory sur
rounding Holtville last night.
White Eddie Nett and Ernest
Clay were speeding to ranch near
the Alamo store to investigate a
report a rancher there had gone
insane and was threatening his
family with death. Lloyd Castanian
and Don Campbell were driving to
the ranch of William Vogel, who
thought his chickens were being
stolen.
Nett and Clay arrived to find
the rancher had left, and that his
wife would not file a complaint of
any sort against him, although she
admitted he had threatened her
life. The officers returned to Ell
Centro after requesting that they
be notified if any further trouble
developed.

4 GOOD EXAMPLE

FIFTEEN dollars is stiff price to pay
L at any time for not registering as a
voter. Just at present it is stiffer than
ever, for that amount of money can
hardly be spent without being missed
by the average one of us.
Nevertheless, that is the sum the Jap
anese-American Association of Brawley
has placed as fine for all members who
fail to register.
The association is made up of Amer
lean citizens of japanese ancestry, and
insists that its members shall perform
their duties as American citizens.
Perhaps with this example set before
the valley. there will be less slamming
of doors in the faces of registration
clerks by those whose ancestors came to
this country many years ago.

Many Register
For Elections

A total registration OF 5000. or
in excess of 1000 more than were
registered last year, is expected be-
fore the end of January, County
Clerk Edward h. Law said yester-
day afternoon.
The county clerk pointed out that
approximately 5000 voters already
have been registered, and as many
more should register before Febru-
ary !.
Registration deputies still are en-
gagged in making house to house
canvasses in many districts. Law
said yesterday, however, all of sup
crvisorial district No. has been
closed. as well as the Jasper, Mt.
Signal and Meloland precincts. All
precincts west of FL Centro are
also closed.
Deputies are still working in the
North End, where registration is
heavier than in any other section.
More voters are registering this
year than he expected, Law assert

| The snOwsnoe rabbit paused,
tilted his ears forward while he
was still within the snow tunnel
and seemed to be listening.
What's the matter?' asked
Uncle Wiggily who was already
outside.
Il wanted to make sure the Fox
wasn't following u.s. was the
answer. But l think we fooled
him very cleverly."
Il think so myself, thanks to
you," said Mr.. Longears. He had
been out adventuring, and trying
to walk on top of the snow, as he
had read snowshoe rabbits can do.
But a Fox chased him and it was
only by burrowing down into a
snow tunnel that the rabbit gentle
man escaped The snowshoe hare,
or rabbit, had advised Mr.. Long,
ears to dig the snow tunnel and
little later, when the Fox came
sneaking back, both animals
hoped into the tunnel and,
through it, reached the bungalow"
ITS all right said the snow
shoe hare after listening for some
time. THE Fox is far away"
Then come into my bungalow
and be my company" invited Nh
Longears. I'll introduce you to
my wife, Nurse Jane and all my
little bunny boys and girls, in
Guiding Baby Bunty.'
why, isn't she one of your rab-
bits?" asked the snowshoe hare.
Not exactly" Uncle Wiggily re-
piled in a low voice. You see
Baby Bunty is little orphan
rabbit. but I let her live with me
and she is just as happy as any Of
my real children"
Il see" said the snoWshoe hare.
"Ah, quite cozy place you have
here" he went on as he followed
Uncle Wiggily into the bungalow.
Not bad" Mr.. Longears ad-
mitted. Make yourself at home.
I'll call the wife and Nurse Jane"
AS the two hoped about in the
hall, stamping the snow off their
paws, a voice upstairs called down:
rs that you, Wiggy? Who is
with you?'
Company" answered Uncle Wig
gily. Come down and meet the
snowshoe rabbit, my dear. And
bring Nurse Jane"
When the two animal ladies had
been introduced to Mr.. Snow, as
Uncle Wiggily called him for short,
Nurse Jane said:
Nh. Longears was reading about
you in a book last night. Is it
true that your fur is brown in
summer and white in winter2"
"Oh, yes answered Mr.. Snow.
Imperial Valley press., 1932-01-20

Many other animals besides my
self change their fur this way. II
I kept my brown fur in winter,
when I tried to walk on top OF the
snow I would be plainly seen by a
Fox or Bob Cat. But with the
white fur, which 1 put on at the
first fall of snow, l am almost IN
visible as l hop along and so am
protected"
And you should see him hop or
top of the snow!" cried Uncle Wig
gily. Il tried it but I sank down
when 1 tried to go fast"
That's because you have no
furry snoWshoes such as l have >
said Mr.. Snow And he showed
Nurse Jane and Mrs. Longears his
paws covered with thick tufts OF
fur. even between his toes, so he
had broad feet which stopped him
from sinking into the soft snow.
well, now what do you say to
a little carrot tea after our colo
trip through the snow tunnel?
asked Uncle Wiggily.
Just what I'd like replied the
company rabbit
When Nurse Jane was bringing
it in, all of a sudden there was a
noise at the front door and Mrs
Iongears, looking from a side
window exclaimed:
Its the Fox! Hes still alter
you'll"
Let me speak to him. whispered
Mr.. Snow. With that the big, white
snowshoe hare went into the hall
Picking up a lump of snow that
he had kicked from his paws, the

door and threw it at the Fox.

not the door. And he banged the
Fox on his nose and made him
run away.
Then Uncle Wiggily and his COM

United Press


WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-Presi-
dent Hoover, harassed these days
by more than the usual cares Of
state, now and then shows flashes
of amusement in his dealings with
the press.
The President was speaking to
several score newspapermen yester-
day at his customary press con-
ference.
Casually. as is his manner, he
announced that he had appointed
Ambassador Charles G. Dawes as
president of the proposed $4,000
100000 reconstruction finance cor
poration. He also announced on
top of this that Dawes not only had
accepted, but that Secretary OF
State Stimson would succeed
Dawes as chairman of the Ameri-
can delegation to the League OF
Nations disarmament conference
which opens at Geneva on Febru-
airy 2. Then he announced that
Eugene Meyer would be chairman
of the board of the finance corpor-
alton.
There was a ripple as the news
papermen sought to dash away
with the news. None could go,
however, until the President was
through speaking. That is an un-
written law in the White House.
The President, reading rapidly
from his prepared statements, ap-
preciated this. AS he finished his
announcement he continued in the
same breath:
And that. I am afraid, is about
all the news I have today, gentle
men. I'm sorry"
He stood grinning broadly as the
reporters elbowed each other out
of the way in the wild dash for
their telephones.
One of the highest officials III
the government was discussing the
differences between the coming
Geneva arms conference and the
one held in Washington some III
years ago.
THE real difference is this he
said. Ten years ago we held a
royal flush. All we've got at
Geneva is a bob-tailed flush
