BANKER URGES
GOLD DOLLAR
Hartman Tells Chamber OF
Commerce Need For Greater
Income And Steady Work.

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 5. U.P) =
Prompt establishments Vi a defin-
tie gold standard as a vital aid to
industry was advocated by Henry
1. Hartman, president of the Uni
ted States Chamber of Commerce,
as members of the western division
of the chamber began their con-
Guiding day of business sessions.
Hartman, NRA adviser to Pre-
sident Roosevelt, delivered the key
note address of the convention
when he stressed the need for
greater income to employers, stea-
6ier work for employees, and
warned against governmental con-
troll of industry.
THE gold content of our dollar
should be scientifically determined
and established and thereafter
maintained at that basis until long
experience has shown that further
change is essential he said.
In suggesting a national pro-
gram which he believes would aid
recovery, he listed the following
proposals:
l. Establish a lower construction
wage scale as temporary measure
to induce the entry of capital into
the construction field.
?. Reduce foreign debts and if
possible make a permanent settle
ment of the question, in order to
increase exports.
8. Oppose unwarranted Interior
ence of government in business.
q. Endeavor to promptly stabilize
our currency with currencies OF
Great Britain and other important
commercial nations.
5. Substitute for present guaran-
tee of bank deposits an insurance
of these deposits up to $500.
G. Remove some of the burdens
the recovery act placed on small
industry and let employers anu
employees recognize that the an
nual income and not hourly rates
are important factors.
c. C. league, president Of the
California State Chamber of Com
merce, attacked the blanket cooe
of the Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
minietration, but Hartman defend
ed the program.
1T is a program of cures, not
miracles" he said, land much OF
the disappointment now apparent
now arises from the fact that the
Presidents program has not achiev-
ed the impossible
Imperial Valley press., 1933-12-05

the same courtesy as will persons
who plan to buy now"
The FL Centre Chamber of Com
merce is urging that Christmas
buying be done at home and il
this connection w. H. Tyler, Jr
president of tie chamber, stated
today. Il do not believe l have
ever seen as splendid selection o:
gift merchandise as the Ell Centre
shops are displaying this year
Practical gifts are available in all
lines of BUSINESS and each store
has added to the practical novelty
gifts which will delight the Christ
mas shopper. I do not believe the
shopper could find merchandise
available in any Of tie large coast
cities in a much wider choice ana
we know when we buy in our own
stores the class of goods we are
getting and the town mer-
chants guarantee is behind it. Ev-
cry resident Of this community
should visit the Ell Centre stores
tonight to see what our shops have
TO offer and to get Christmas shop
ping started before the last minute

SALLY QUITS
FILM STUDIO

HOLLYWOOD, Dec. 5 U.P) Sally
Rand, whose fan dance at the
Chicago Century of Progress Elk
position won her fame and a mo-
ton picture contract, walked out
of the studio because the role per-
mitted her no display as a
dramatic actress, it was announced
today.
Paramount officials said she left
in a huff when she learned the
dancing role in which she had been
cast carried only few spoken
lines.
Miss Rand came here a month
ago to appear in picture in
which George Raft and Carole
Lombard are doing the leads. The
film has been in production three
weeks but the dancer did not in
veStigate her role untile she showed
up for her first dance. Officials
limited it would be impossible to
enlarge her part any great extent.
Miss Rand was disappointed IL
film work year ago when she first
broke into pictures. She returned
east and finally attained success
as a dancer at the Chicago exposi-
ton.

GRAVES MAY
BE CLUE TO
MISSING PAIR

SAN DIEGO, Dec. S. U.P)-In-
vestigation of the mysterious dis
appearance year ago of Charles
Thompson, Tijuana distiller, and
his wife was renewed today when
sheriff's deputies left for Ensen-
ada to inquire into the discovery of
two skeletons in a shallow grave.
The bones were reported unearth-
ed by a farmer s pillow Is miles
north of EnSenada near the ocean.
Authorities theorized they may be
the bodies of the long-missing
couple.
The Thompson vanished just a
year ago today. They were last
seen in Tijuana. Investigators
learned the distiller had $4,000 on
his person but they were unable to
connect his disappearance with rob-
bers. The inquiry was at stand
still until Mexican authorities mott
fled the sheriff IS office of the farm
er's discovery.
Federal department of justice
agents joined county authorities in
reopening the investigation.

BOARD HEARS
APPEAL. MADE
Delegation Asks District Direc-
tors To Support Force Account
For Canal.

Appeals were made in behalf of
workers and taxpayers in the coun-
ty to the irrigation district board
of directors at meeting held this
morning asking the board to favor
the use of force account in the con-
struction of the All-American canal.
1t was pointed out to the board
that this method would relieve pres
ent conditions and give more local
employment.
1t was stated that no effort was
made by the delegates appearing
before the board to force any issue
or intimidate the board in any
way. They asked the opinion of
the board whether the directors
would consent to sending commit
tee from the people of the county
directly to President Roosevelt to
secure from him the force account
method of constructing the canal.
Ninety-five per cent of the peo-
pie in the valley, it was said, are
in favor of this methof of con-
structing the canal.
Following this proposal a lengthy
discussion was held between board
members and those of the delega-
ton but no official action was TAX
en- by the board before the noon
recess.
1t was the opinion of Director
Young that he didn It want to do
anything which might in any man
ner interfere with the present set
up regarding the canal and Direc-
tor Hewes voiced the same view,
stating that he felt any such &C
ton by the district might result in
the canal being taken away or the
contract changed in such a manner
as to injure the future prospects of
the valley.
Director Rose stated that it was
his opinion the work could be done
cheaper by the district and that the
only way for the district to do it
was by force account. Director Aten
that the delegates to this
meeting contact the various cham
bers of commerce and city coun-
ellis in the valley to seek their APP
proval of the force account method
of construction and then present
these, together with other petitions
before the board for further con-
sideration and action.
