VALLEY GROUP
PLEASED WITH
ARIZONA VISIT

Returning last evening from
productive day in Yuma an Ell Cen
tro Chamber of Commerce COM
mittee, headed by President w. H.
Tyler and NJ o. Simms, chairman
of the tourist and convention bu-
reau, reported 100 per cent cooper
! alton on the part of Yuma in the
erection of directional signs at the
diversion corner in Phoenix, where
highway travel divides, one road
going by way of Blythe and the
ether through Yuma and Imperial
Valley.
The tourist and convention group
in Imperial Valley has erected
lighted, neon sign at Coachella val
ley and another, in the form of an
arrow in Phoenix. The visit to Yu-
ma was made yesterday to enlist the
city which are in direct contact
with the motoring public in erection
OF further signs and the success OF
the trip makes possible the erection
of sign at Phoenix which will read,
LOS Angeles via the All-American
Canal Route" This sign is expected
to function effectively in bringing
travel through Imperial and Yuma
Valleys.
Simms reported at the Yuma
meeting, where the Imperial Valley
visitors were entertained by the
Yuma Chamber of Commerce at
luncheon that the sign erected last
spring by the tourist and conven-
ton bureau at Coachella, directing
traffic via Salton Sea and Imperial
Valley is doing effective work in
bringing motor travel through the
southern end of the state and he
pointed out that the signs to be
erected at Phoenix, one daylight
sign and the other lighted, neon
sign for night travellers, will be
equally efficient.
The Imperial Valley delegation
reported a fine feeling of good will
and cooperation towards this COM
munity and that Clarence Dunbar
president of thu Yuma chamber, at
the luncheon meeting voiced the
same sentiment as that expressed in
yesterdays Press that construction
of the All-American canal will be
the incentive for many tourists to
visit Imperial Valley and that the
erection of direction signs in Phoe-
nix will do much toward seeing that
the motoring public does come
through Yuma and Imperial val
leys.
Those who represented Ell Centre
and Brawley in Yuma yesterday on
this matter were George Bennitt
Chas. Sones, W. H. Tyler, Robert
GIays, H. A. Harris, w. A. Tondro,
A. F. Miller, M. o. Simms, F. A.
Waehler, George Kruger, A. L.
Richmond and Allen T. Witter.

GRAFT

If and when South Carolina returns to the legal
lied sale of BOOZE be it under the dispensary plan
or otherwise, the board of commissioners handling
the booze industry, will at supersede the high
way and tax commissions as the controlling pot;-
cal factor of the state and graft will again become
one of the major industries of the commonwealth,
just as it was in the dispensary days.--Yorkville
Enquirer
There will be graft under any law permitting the
sale of liquor just as there has been under pro-
hibiting the sale of liquor. Permitting the sale OF
liquor, either by persons or the state, will bring
into being in politics liquor ring which will be
very powerful. 1t was the control of politics by
whisky interests which, as much as anything else,
led to the adoption of the 18th amendment. The
leopard has not changed his spots. Legalize the
sale of liquor and the whisky interests will again
attempt to dominate politics and to defeat any re-
| strictons around the sale of intoxicants-Green-

ed at lower levels; and here again
the high utility of the cove lakes
is apparent, since from one or
more Of them gravity lines could
be maintained from the head OF
the French, Broad to the apprOprl-
ate location of the tanks lower
down the valley.
Otherwise there is no ultimately
satisfactory solution than trunk
lines all the way to the sea. But
the possible value Of the fertilizer
converted by the anaerobic bac-
terra from the septic sewage into
a safe form may make the tank
system cheaper than this heroic
expedient. At that, the harbOrs of
many important ports have be-
come terribly foul and the trunk
lines must be designed to empty
into the ocean at unfrequented
places, sometimes a difficult en-
gineering problem. otter practical
ly out of the question, since cities
are SO OIleH az Vi neal IllC lLI'u IA
of rivers, and gravity flow IS OBJ
tainable only in river valleys.
Pumping is as costly as treatment.
In a word, we must contemplate
an adequate coordinated trunk
sewer system in the valley, with
which all settlements must articu
late, and which must function in
connection with the septic treat
ment tank system, rendering tire
water and the sludge sterile; the
sterile water then being allowed
to be carried off down the river
and the sterile sludge to be dis
posed of for fertilizer. Needless
to say such fertilizer would be
we'll adapted to forestation pro-
jects or to those semi-public eX-
detrimental projects envisaged in
the Tennessee plan. In this scheme
the cove lakes would perform an
essential duty; the central lake
could do nothing except for Ashe
vile and points below. and it
would itself require protection
from pollution.

The coding of the business of Hender-

effect on business Improvement here. The
few industries of the county cannot III
crease wages or business to the extent nee
essary to bring about the change in condi-
tiOns which is needed. Immediate IMPROVE
ment in conditions may be expected in i'll
dustrial centers, when wages are raised
and the unemployed are given work. In
this county the greatest number it is pos
ssible to employ in industry makes little i'm
preston on general business conditions.
