UNOFFICIAL AUTO
SHOW TO BE AT
PARKING STAND

When the third annual Imperial
county fair throws opens its gates
to the general public there will be
official exhibits galore, including
livestock, farm and dairy produce,
domestic produce and numberleSs
other things, but there will be one
unofficial exhibit rivaling in in
terest anything else the fair may
contain.
1t will be the endless string OF
automobiles which for one entire
week will trail over Imperial Val
ley highways, the gigantic parking
lot at the fair grounds their final
objective.
And on that parking lot may be
seen every year at fair time one OF
the oldest automobile shows in the
history of such events, for this
show includes everything from the
latest nickel plated models with
their practically noiseless motors
to the relics of days when auto
mobiles were something at which
youthful jokesters shouted.
Every model, every year, and
every kind will be represented, with
the latest things in fender dents
and colorful language represented
to the full extent of the law, and
without great care it is a certainty
some cars will leave the scene with
more fender dents than were pres
ent when they came.
Probably most interested in the
automobile show, however will be
service station owners and attend
ants situated near the fair
grounds, for it will be to them that
the full import of the weeks big
motor parade comes.

Lotteries. Here and There.

From the Baltimore Evening Sun
Michael MacWhite. Minister Of the
Irish Free State. declared in Baltimore
yesterday that whereas few years ago
the Irish hospitals were destitute, to-
day they have money enough to oper-
ate on for two years were not another
cent given them. In addition, they
have modernized their equipment and
the government is now considering
compelling every hospital, small or
large, to provide certain number of
free beds for the poor.
This transformation has been accom-
plished by means OF a few great lot
teries, supervised by the government.
We have lotteries IN Baltimore, but
they produce no such socially profitable
results as this. The very day Mr.. Mac
White visited the town two men were
hailed into court and fined 500 each
for operating a lottery. Such Incl.
dents are not uncommon, and yet
there Is reason TO believe that *.
every lottery operator caught several
escape
Such social damage as may come
from lotteries can be done as well by
furtive, hole-and-corner, crooked affairs
as by the Irish sweepstakes, which is
run honestly But what social profit
there Is in them cannot be extracted
except by managing them In the open
and under legal auspices. Apparently
what we have done IS to retain all the
worst features of lotteries while using
the power of law to abolish what good
there is in them.

sippi in the days when Samuel Clemens
was pilot and as are still used In some
conditions in navigation in both narrow
and shoal and wide and deep waters.
It was found by means of the echo
sounder." This is an apparatus Of COM
paratively recent development, which
measures the depth by electrical means
whereby the time required for vibra-
tion Of sound to make the circuit from
ship to bottom and back Is determined
precisely.
This device makes possible navigation
in dangerous waters and in thick
weather. such as the crossing Of the
Grand Banks OF Newfoundland. where
in the past heavy losses have been
suffered. A ship thus equipped can
with safety proceed in almost any con-
ditions, provided her motive power Is
sunicient, unless there is no channel.
The mile-hig mountain off the Cali
fornia coast, far from being menace
to navigation, may by virtue OF the
echo sounder become an element OF
security in affording a sea mark for
Identification of position.

winning four straight, Is In 1897 and
1928. BY taking this series without q
defeat the Yankees" establish a record
that is likely to stand for many years,
! that OF winning twelve successive world
series games without loss. When a
team wins twelve games in a row in the
course Of regular playing season it is
| doing very well indeed, and to win
twelve world series games straight away,
regardless Of the lapse Of time between
games and series. is an astonishing
achievement.
There Is little doubt OF the reason for
this latest accomplishment. The New
York team had better pitchers and bet
ter batters than the Chicago team. In
the four games 1t made 81 runs while
the opposition was scoring 10. The
Yankees" made IS hits with total Of
rs bases, batting average Of .3l3, while
Chicago was making 81 hits with total
of So bases batting average Of .253.
It's greater run making was due in part
to the fact that 23 Of its players were
walked" while only IL Chicago bats
men were thus put on base. New York
hitters made home runs, while Chicago
scored but 3. Those home runs from
the Gotham bats were morale e-destroy-
ing force that mainly led to victory.
The fact that the series ran for only
four games should put quietus on the
talk that is annually revived by skeptics
to the effect that these interleague con-
tests are hippodromed for the financial
benefit of the two major organizations.
1t has been repeatedly noted that the
players themselves. who are, after all,
the sole factors Of victory or defeat,
have no interest whatever after the
fourth game of the series in the distri-
button of receipts AS far as the money
end Of the contests goes 1t is over with
the fourth game, and there Is suf-
ficient difference between first place
and second place cash benefits to cause
the two teams, apart from any sporting
motive, to strive to the utmost to win
as quickly as possible.
The New York American League team
is remarkable assemblage OF base ball
talent, in hitters. fielders and pitchers.
Some critics believe that it Is ageing
and that it is perhaps at its best now,
with changes about to occur in personnel
and perhaps in quality. However that
may be, It's present performance OF a
four-time winning without defeat de-
serves the acclaim Of all who are
interested in the national sport.

Ocean Charting by Echoes.

, Report has just been made to the
Coast and Geodetic Survey of the dis
covery of a mile high mountain in the
Pacific Ocean of the California coast,
about 60 nautical miles southwest Of
the Golden Gate. The Survey ship
Guide has been working in that re-
gion recently and making soundings
and this hitherto unsuspected elevation
In the bed of the sea was found.
This discovery is not Of any material
Importance as far as the security Of
seafarers is concerned. No ship will
ever strike the peak of the submerged
mountain, for 1t lies some 900 fathoms,
or 5,400 feet, little more than a mile,
beneath the surface. Some day, it is
true, 1t may be vital for cable layers
to know of this irregularity in the ocean
bed Such information Is never amiss.
The point Of particular interest is
that the mountain was found at all.
and by method Of sounding that has
greatly increased the security of those
who go down to the sea In ships.

Two local issues now uppermost in

the Roosevelt campaign. One of the

Democrats consider that the insult
