Kenyon Drops
Pavilion PI0T,

Stating that if dance pavilion
would be considered a detriment to
surrounding property and asserting
that he had no desire to go agains5
the wishes of a majority of the
property holders in his neighbor-
hood, Fred Kenyon withdrew his
petition to erect an open-air dance
pavilion at his plunge on north
Eighth street.
This action of Kenyon was learn
ed last night just before a meeting
of the city planning commission was
scheduled to take place to consider
objections to the proposed pavilion.
AS a consequence the meeting was
not held and the matter was
dropped.
Kenyon had filed his petition to
erect such a pavilion some time ago
and 1t met with so many objections
on the part of property holders in
the neighborhood of the plunge that
he thought it best to reconsider his
petition. At q meeting Of the COM
mission held last week a number of
protests were heard and the meet
ing at that time was adjourned
with the object of taking definite
action on the question last night.

ASSERTS HAY
PRICE SHOULD
BE GREATER


Returning from a meeting held
at Lancaster on Monday, which
was called to bring together rep
resentatives from all the hay grow
ing communities of Southern Cali
fornia, Robert Hays, manager OF
the El Centre Chamber of Com
merce, reported an increasing spirit
of unanimity among the several
hay growing areas. H. A. Hastain,
president of the Imperial Valley
Hay Growers association, and j.
A. Sanborn, director Of Brawley
representing that organization, were
also in attendance.
One of the matters, according tc
Hays. which received particular
consideration was the continuance
of the federal-state hay grading,
and the extreme Importance of this
service to Imperial Valley was
stressed by Hays and the Brawley
representatives.
At this meeting, Hays reported,
there was very strong sentiment
that Imperial Valley hay is going
too cheaply. Hay from other areas
will not commence moving until
May l, and the prevailing price Of
So per ton at the ranch is much
below what hay is worth and would
bring If Imperial Valley growers
would remain firm in their asking
prices. This, he states, Is after
making allowance for the shorter
haul from other areas to Los An
geles. From all reports from other
hay growing communities, the I'M
perial Valley price should be 50
higher than that now demanded by
the grower and producers here
could get this price if they demand
ed it.
"a milk war is waging in Los
Angeles Hays states, land it ap-
pears to be the intention of the
milk producers in that area to have
the Imperial Valley hay grower
finance the fight by giving the
coast dairymen cheaper hay. If
Imperial Valley growers would eth
er affiliate with, or follow the rec
concentrations, of the Imperial
Valley Hay Growers association, we
could hold the price of hay to a
point where at least the grower
might have his cost of production
returned to him. With the new
crop of hay starting at SO it might
go even lower during the heavy
baling months of June and July.
There should be an effort made
on the part of hay growers in In
perial Valley, by unified action, to
force the coast dairymen to pay at
least the cost of bare labor of
growing and baling. This could be
done, it was pointed out at the
Lancaster meeting, if only our I'm
perial Valley folks would meet with
the purpose of discussing and de-
Gliding matters such as this"
