BEAL DISCUSSES
CANAL CONTRACT
AT JUNIOR MEET

Breaking out his vocal guns
again in a forlorn stand against
the All-American canal contract,
w. F. Beal, minority director of
the Imperial Irrigation district.
this morning admitted he has little
or no hope the contract will be
defeated, but by inference predicted
q long fight for delays and post
ponements after the contract is
accepted by voters of Imperial
Valley.
Il am not so foolish as to think
they're not going to vote this con-
tract Beal declared, tacitly ad
mitting disapproval by voters Of
the opposition represented i'll chief
by himself and c. w. Brockman,
division one director He was
speaking before members of the
Ell Centro Junior Chamber of
Commerce.
Even if it takes a years delay on
the contract after it is approved,
however, Beal declared he is 60
ing to devote himself to securing
full water rights for Imperial
Valley.
1t was the contract between the
Metropolitan Water district and
The department of agriculture
which drew the most concentrated
fire from the irrigation district di-
rector. The contract provides that
Los Angeles shall receive 100000
acre feet of water from the Colo
RADIO river. TO be taken either from
the water stored behind Boulder
Imperial Valley press., 1932-02-03

dam. or above the dam, Beal said.
This phase of the Los Angeles
contract, which Beal described as
usurping Imperial Valleys water
rights. probably will be tested In
court sooner or later, he asserted.
Attributing TO proponents of the
present All-American canal con-
tract the backing of the Metropoli-
tan Water district, Beal told mem
bers of the FL Centro Junior
Chamber of Commerce that this
district has dictated the policies
of the Imperial Irrigation district
for the past 10 years, or more.
Outlines Opposition
Water rights formed the prin-
cipal theme of Beals talk.
AT the outset he outlined five
principal reasons for his opposi-
ton to the All-American canal
contract. explaining it is not the
canal itself he is possessed to, but
the contract His points of oppo-
sition were
l. The assertedly insufficient
amount of water allocated to I'M
perial Valley by the contract.
>. Inclusion of the Coachella
Valley within the Imperial Irriga-
ton district.
3. Denial Of the right of the I'M
perial Irrigation district to sell
water.
4. Denial of the right to use all
of the power needed.
5. The asserted guarantee that
Imperial Valley will underwrite the
cost of the canal.
1t was the first two of these
points to which Beal expressed
greatest objections, and the first
upon which he based his talk
this morning.

Timbales should not be confused
with timbale shells, which are
entirely different. Timbale shells
are made of a thin fritter batter

STOPPINC-N-TRANSIT |
SERVICE CONTINUES
Privilege Accorded to Encour-
age Carload Movement and
Obtain Saving

Railroads operating in North Da-
kota are voluntarily extending stop
ping-in-transit privileges to partly UNI
load fresh fruits and vegetables from
the north Pacific coast, 1t was an
nounced Tuesday by the state railroad
commission.
Effective Feb. l, 1882, the Great
Northern railway has published new
provision permitting carloads Of fresh
fruits and vegetables to be stopped at
Minot when the final destination Is
Crosby, and at Thief River Falls,
Mimi, for cars destined to Bemidji,
at charge Of $3.50 per car in addi-
ton to the through rate.
This privilege is accorded to en-
courage carload movement and to
meet truck competition, the state
commission said.
On two occasions recently, the rail-
roads sought to cancel stopping in
transit privileges on fresh fruit and
vegetable shipments. On protest Of
the North Dakota commission to the
interstate commerce commission, the
proposed cancellation was suspended.
The I. G. G. found the proposal was
not Justified and ordered the rail-
roads to continue stopping in transit
The privileges are regarded by the
state commission as of valuable bene-
fit to smaller dealers. retailers and
farmers community buying clubs in
that these receivers of freight are en-
abled to obtain part carloads at a
substantial saving in price.

Alarm-Cl0ck System
Is Help to Husband

Chicago, Jan. 5.-(AP)-Peter
Dowid's stock Of domestic hap
piness has gone up, but his
social standing among his "bud-
dies" seems to have suffered
ever since a Judge told him he
might take one night out a
week, provided he took an alarm
clock with him and started for
home at 11:45, regardless Of
whether he was winning or los
ing at poker.
Judge Joseph SABBATH sug-
gested that Peter try out the
alarm clock idea a month ago
when he delayed action on Mrs.
Dowid's petition for q divorce.
Monday her attorney, w. w.
O'Brien, appeared before the
court and told the Judge that
the plan had been so successful
that she wanted to drop her suit.
"In fact" said Attorney
O'Brien, "it looks as though
Dowid's poker playing might
end altogether, because on each
of his nights out during the last
month he has left winner and
his buddies are so worked up
about it they have threatened
to bar him from the game"

Hayden Carruth, 50 years old,
widely-known author and editor who
formerly lived in South Dakota, died
Sunday night at his home in Briar
Cliff Manor, N. Y, following brief
illness.
Aside from writing several books,
Carruth had contributed a monthly
page Of humor, headed "postscripts, I"
to the Woman's Home Companion
since 1915.
His death was caused by heart
disease.
Officials at the state historical
society here were puzzled by mes
sage concerning his death, which
said he first gained recognition as
a writer of humor while contributing
to the "Etheline Bell and the Da-
kota Bell, North Dakota weeklies."
Records Of the historical society
here show that Carruth went under
the name Of Erred" in South Dakota
and that he first wrote humor for
the Estelline Bell, at Estelline, S. ID.
Estelline was taken from the map
recently. Later Carruth moved to
Sioux Falls, S. D., where he was
connected with the Dakota Bell.
Later Fred Carruth gained fame as

Ignore Opportunity
To Reopen Navy Fight

Washington, Jan. 5.-(AP)-The
house naval committee Tuesday let
pass an opportunity to reopen the
sensational controversy between the
white house and the navy league.
It called many witnesses to dis
cuss the Vinson bill to build up the
navy to treaty strength, but despite
urging by some members, the COM
mittee chairman, Vinson of Georgia,
persuaded the group to leave out
William Howard Gardiner, president
Of the league.
Gardeners charge that President
Hoover was trying to starve the
navy and had shown "abysmal ig-
norance" on naval matters precipi-
tated a presidential demand for an
apology last fall. 1t never was rem
dered.
Vinson convinced the committee an
investigation of that kind would
smack Of partisanship and possibly
decrease chances of congressional
approval for the 1O-year construc.
tion program. The democratic chair.
man held it would be much easier ia
show the navy's needs by testimony
Of experts in the navy department.
