Foreign Depreciation.

And I wish to call your attention to
further factor that has come to a
head during the. last few weeks, and
that is the effect of the depreciation
of foreign countries on the ability OF
our competitors in agricultural products
to ship into our markets. When their
currencies deprecated their prices and
wages decreased in comparison with
ours, and this enables them to pene-
trate our tariff wall.
Already foreign farm products, such
as butter, pork products, grass for rugs,
cattle and competitive oils have begun
to flow over our borders in competition
with our American farmers and have
contributed to the depreciation Of
prices. Particularly is this so from
Canada. New Zealand and the Orient
and from certain European countries.
Fortunately, the Republican party
had secured the establishment of au-
hority in the Tariff Commission by
which the tariffs could be re-eXamined
in just such events. I have lately given
instructions to the commission to re-
examine certain of the agricultural
tariffs with view of presenting to me
the actual facts of the difference in
cost of production at home and abroad,
and certainly if the facts are developed
as they appear 1 shall promptly act in
relief of the farmers.
The Democratic candidate and the
Democratic party have promised. and
the Democratic Congress have voted to
destroy this authority; and I ask you
what emergency relief you could there
fore expect from them.
Discusses Farm Board
The second point which / took I'D at
DeS MoineS was the activities of the
Farm Board. I stated that the original
fundamental purpose of the board was
to encourage cooperative marketing.
That they have done to a remarkable
degree Hundreds of cooperative as
sociations would have gone bankrupt In

the Farm Board to lend to them the

DISTRICT PLAN
OUTLINED FOR
LOCAL G. OF G.

Charles L. Childers, attorney for
the Imperial Irrigation District.
who has recently returned from
Washington, D. c., addressed mem
bers of the Ell Centre Chamber of
Commerce yesterday noon, follow
ing a performance of Dickens
Christmas Carol, given by the
puppeteers of Wilson school.
w. A. Tondro, president of the
chamber, complimented Miss Norah
Epler and David Kenyon, direc-
tors, on the splendid performance
of the "puppeteers" a group of
eighth grade pupils who had made
the jointed puppets. modeied their
heads and fashioned their clothing.
The handling of the puppets, was
heartily applauded by the delight
cd audience and, according to Ton
dro, the Performance put Tony
Sarg's marionettes to shame.
Childers told of the double cleo
ton on January IL when the peo-
pie of Imperial county will vote on
the All-American canal contract
and the refunding plan, after CIV
ing a brief history of the ALL
American canal contract the speak
er stated that, except for a few
minor changes, the contract to be
voted upon next January is the
same as that on which the people
voted last February. The only
change of any Importance is that
Coachella is not required to be in
cluded in the district unless appli-
cation is made within 80 days af-
ter the valuation of the contract.
The debt refunding plan was al
SO briefly explained by Childers,
who stated this program is plan
ned to prevent pyramiding of pay
ments, and further postponement
of warrants. "The district has
bonded obligations of something
over $14,000,000," said the speaker,
which is not high but. because of
the depression, any obligation is
too much for the farmers and
business men to meet. For this
reason we passed part of the
payments due on last July and we
have some warrants outstanding.
If these payments are pyramided
the community will be the loser.
The only way to lessen or spread
these obligations is by the debt re-
funding plan"
There will be no chamber lunch
con next week because of the many
affairs scheduled for the holiday
season. The next meeting will be
held at noon on January 4.

Misfortune Levels Heavy
Blow at John Scott
and Brother.

Death and other misfortune in
the last three days dealt heavy
blows to the families of John
Scott, who died Tuesday, and his
brother William.
Miss Vivian Scott, 10. niece of
Mr. Scott. daughter of his brother,
William Scott of Terre Haute, COM
mitted suicide Thursday by leaping
into the Wabash river from a bridge
in Clinton.
Funeral services for John, who
died of heart disease at his home.
1924 Lockwood street, were held to-
day, but daughter, i'll in the
Methodist hospital, does not know
OF his death. Her condition is SO
serious that it was believed best to
keep the news from her.
While a sister, Mrs. Albert Han
cock, was making arrangements for
the funeral, she was informed that
her husband, World war veteran.
had been stricken with a hemor-
rhage, and taken TO the United
States veterans hospital in serious
condition.
A sister Of Mr.. Scott was too i'll at
her home in Denver to come here
for the funeral.

defense "a pure fabrication backed
up by perjury He declared Ham
ilton and Witt to be "Siamese
twins in crime, and asserted that
if Hamilton was given a gun today
he would kill ten or twelve in this
room trying to gain liberty"
Rebuttal testimony of state wit
neSSes occupied most of the time
Thursday, and was directed at the
abb defense offered for Hamilton
and to an effort to break down his
charge that Indianapolis police sub
iected him to the third degree" in
efforts to obtain confession which
was admitted in evidence.
Among witnesses for the prosecu-
ton who testified Hamilton was not
in lola May 81, the date of the
murder, as he claims, but arrived on
May 20, was Miss Sue Sawyer, a
neighbor of his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. James H. Hamilton, in lola.
Miss Sawyer fixed the date of
Hamiltons arrival in lola by recall
ing that she saw him reach his
home while she was gathering flow
ers May % for use on Memorial
day, May 80. She recalled also of
reading an account of the Jackson
Staying in a Kansas City newspaper
Of May 81, and that Hamilton came
home two days afterward.
Miss Ruth Ellis, another neighbor
of the Hamilton, testified that on
the night of May q, she conversed
with Miss lone Vandergrift. now
Hamilton's wife, and was told by
Miss Vandergrift she would attend
a picnic if Louis returned home.
Miss Ellis fixed May 90 as the
date of his arrival. Her testimony
was corroborated by Miss Alice
Smith, who aided Mrs. Margaret
Krupp, sister of Hamilton, in ar
ranging for the picnic.
