WORKERS WARNED
not TO EXPECT
POSITIONS HERE

Since Brawley reported to w. N.
Cunningham of the local office of
federal employment service that
there is a continuous stream of nn-
employed who give their residence
as Los Angeles ana who are here
to work in the cantaloupes he i'm
mediately wrote Los Angeles Off
cials of the lack of employment in
Imperial Valley.
In addition TO the Los Angeles Of
ficialS, Cunningham communicated
with those at Bakersfield and Riv-
! erside. This was done as a means
of checking unemployed who have
been misinformed as to available
labor in the valley.
Cunningham explained tina t
there is no work to be had in I'm
perial Valley at this time and no
prospects for work in the immediate
future.
Work in the cantaloupes will not
start until May Is. he said, regard
less of reports to the contrary and
there is an ample supply of local
labor to handle the crop. The few
cantaloupes to be shipped this
month will not play an important
part in tie picture.
During the month of November" !"
quoting from Cunningham's letter
vegetable workers swarmed into the
valley and we're taken care of by
welfare agencies to such an extent
that there is no money left to take
care of anyone coming into the val
ley without funds. Needy persons
coming here in search of work are
in danger of suffering hardship as
the valley will have all it can do
to take care of its own unemployed.

STIRRING DRAMAS
OFFERED PATRONS
OF FOX IMPERIAL

Tombstone, Arizona's memorable
fcud between the Earps and Clan
tons. which was the topic on every
tongue in the west so years ago,
forms the basis Of the film Law
and Order. which plays tonight
only at Fox Imperial theatre, with
an all star cas- tincluding Walter
Huston, Harry Carey. Raymond
Hatton, Ralph Ince, Andy DeYine
and others.
Although the characters in the
story are given other names. those
familiar with the incidents of the
Earps' regime in Tombstone will
have no difficulty in recognizing
the fact that the film is founded
on historical facts.
Huston plays the role of Frame
Johnson, easily recognized as
Wyatt carp, the most fearless peace
officer in the west. and whose death
a little over year ago at an ad-
vanced age. brought a flood of
memories of the wild days in Tomb
stone
The "Birdcagc' theatre. the cor
rail-, scene Of the bloody Earp-Clan-
ton battle. and other historic
Tombstone places, are reproduced in
the film.
THE Lost Squadron famous air
story by Dick Grace. Hollywood's
leading plane stunter. which ran as
a serial story in Liberty. is the
Sunday and Monday attraction.
This most spectacular of auplane
films is story of the motion pic
lures and the demand for death
defying crashes by half-crazed di-
rector who insists upon realism, no
matter to what dangers il exposes
the plane pilots.
Richard Dix has the leading role
in an extraordinary cast which in
cludes Dick Grace himself, Art Goe-
bel. noted flyer, Babe Green, spec
tacular war act, Mary Astor, Eric
Won Stroheim, Dorothy Jordan, Joel
McCrea, Robert Armstrong. Hugh
Herbert and Ralph Ince.
THE Lost Squadron" is complete
with thrills from start TO finish, the
end leaving the spectator wondering
how the dare-devils of the air can
pull such stunts and escape with
their lives.
Written by a man who knows
airplanes and their operation from
start to finish. and weaving in an
interesting plot, the film has been
declared the most realistic of
long line OF plane successes.

Hit And Run
Crash Reported

A hit-and-run driver yesterday
afternoon was responsible for a
smashed fender, bent axle and a
blown out tire on Russell Fried
ley's car, he reported to the sher-
ifs office.
Friedley was driving west on the
San Diego highway three miles
west Of Ell Centro when another
car drove in front of him from a
side road, swerved across the high
way and back again, striking his
car, he said. The other car did not
step after the collision.

To the voters of Ell Centre that
statement is made literally. The bonds
are your bonds. The sewer is your
sewer. Whatever the cost of whatever
nature pertaining to it you pay for
TAX BURDEN. The City Council is doing its
best to reduce your tax BURDEN not to increase it.
1t takes no mathematician to discover that it costs
the taxpayers less to pay $4,000 for bond interest
and redemption than it does to pay $4,000 to $780,
900 or more for repairs and damages
1t requires profound group of scientists to
find that money spent on the decayed and rOtted
sewer is money nearly wasted while money spent
on the Improvement will give value for years
TO come.
YOUR SEWER BONDS. The fate of the City
as to its sewer is up to you. 1t will take eight
months to year at best before contracts can be
let and new sewer completed. 1t is your decision
whether this City shall longer gamble it's welfare,

phies at cost greater than the cost of protection
and safety with

By Alicia Hart


Few women realize how much
their necks need exercise.
There is no part of the anatomy
that gets used 80 little, really. It
Is even considered impolite to
rubber" this way and that. Yet
IL women rubbered more, there
would be fewer sagging, unused
looking necks.
One of the best neck exercises
that will strengthen the muscles
and start circulation where you
need 1t, is the head rotation. This
is the way to do It: !.
Drop your head back until 1t
rests on your spine, IL you can DO
that. Few can. But drop It back.
nevertheless. Try to relax so that
1t merely hops back, when you de-
eide to let 1t go.
Bounce your head up and down
q few times while you are In this
position, looking at the ceiling.
Now, try to swing your head In
a quarter circle and let It lie upon
your right shoulder. Chances are
that II won't get near enough your
shoulder to lie there! But make
q stab at 1t anyhow.
From the right shoulder, de-
scribe another quarter circle.
bringing your chin right down onto
your chest. From there, complete
the circle by trying to rest your
head first on your left shoulder
and then back. W
Do this rotary motion In one di-
| rection a few times, then change
and make your head go the other
way. This, in time. should help
| relax your tense, unusual neck
muscles and start circulation
again.
A second neck exercise that Is
excellent, is TO lie face downward
on the floor. Keep your arms down
at the sides. Now try to raise
your head and shoulders up from
the floor, and at the same time your
feet and legs. II you could ever
get 80 that you could throw your
head up and backwards far enough
to meet your feet as they come up
wards, your neck certainly would
be relaxed. Even II you can't, q

Busy Hours Ahead!
Sammy's mother has promised
to meet Cousin May and make a

as a cucumber, Of things she wants
to price at least, including a dress.
a hat and pair of shoes. OF
course Cousin May has a list too.
Perhaps they can get through in

Sammy Is dressed in his best bib

The ride In on the street car
promises to be thrilling. He gets
up on his knees and looks out of
the window at first. But the car
fills up and fat lady demands
that he be removed so she can sit
down. His mother takes him on
her knee. A man in dirty clothes
jams up against him and the fat
lady pushes. Sammy is tired from
the monotony and ugliness of the
whole affair and by the time they
reach the getting-off place he Is
cross too.
The STREETS are full of crowds
and noise. All the people tower
over him like giants, pushing,
rushing, crowding, stepping on his
small toes as though he were not
there.
Cousin May is late. They walt
