SUPERVISORS TO COOPERATE
ON BOVINE T. B. CONTROL

Expressing willingness to give
whatever advice and assistance is
possible to achieve the complete
eradication of bovine tuberculosis
in Imperial county. DR.. G. U. Duck
worth, chief of the division of ami
NAL husbandry, state department of
agriculture, appeared before the
board of supervisors yesterday af-
ternoon. Earlier in the way Dc.
DuckW orth had met with a repre-
sentative group of valley dairymen
and cattle raisers to discuss ways
and means to achieve this end.
DR.. Duckworth pointed out to the
supervisors that the county has
made great strides toward this OBJ
ject and stated further that work
of this kind, although of the great
est moment, is greatly hindered by
q lack of sufficient funds. How
ever, he said, it is hoped that
sufficient appropriation may soon
he received from the state to Ell
able his department to continue this
work until the whole state will feel
the effects of the eradication pro-
gram.
Accompanying DR.. Duckworth at
this meeting with the supervisors
were DR.. j. E. Stuart, veterinarian
of the state department, DR.. w. E.
Howe, federal representative, Dr..

Warrent Fox, county health chief
and Earl v. c. Northrup, represent
ing the county dairymen.
In answer to DR.. Duckworth, the
supervisors thanked him for the in
terest he had shown in the county
and indicated that they would CO.
operate in any program which might
be set on foot to secure the conn.,
plete eradication Of tuberculosis
among cattle in the county.
The question of vaccination of
dogs in the county against possible
rabies was discussed but it was the
opinion of the board that the coun-
ty did not have sufficient funds to
launch an extensive program along
these lines at the present time.
Two applications for the position
of recruiting officer for the refor-
estation program inaugurated by
the federal government were re-
ceived by the board and placed on
file. A communication from the
Calexico w. C. T. u, thanking the
board for keeping the sale of beer
out of the rural districts in the
county was read to the board and
filed, as was also the application
of Fred w. Ravens for the position
of occupation tax collector for the
county.
Prepare Building Code
A letter was received from the
California State Chamber of Com
merce regarding the uniform build
ing code which is being prepared
by that body. The communication
stated that this code will be ready
for distribution by July 1.
The board discussed the question
of certain lots in Holtville OH
which taxes are due. An amend
ment to a resolution already adopt
ed by the board in this regard was
proposed and upon vote was reject
ed by vote of 80. This amend
ment was to the effect that if these
lot should be returned after having
been sold for taxes they would be
returned to the three different
bodies, namely the county, the
Imperial Irrigation district and the
city of Holtville, as their interests
would appear. Supervisors Vencill
and Osborne voted in favor of this
proposed change while Supervisors
Best, Preble and Graham were i'll
opposition. The hope was expressed
that a meeting between the super
visors and the district board of di-
rectors could be neld in the near
future at which time this matter
could be satisfactorily adjusted.

contemporary life, greater oppor-
tunity for youth and retrenchment.
Under retrenchment Mrs. Fer
rell stated that people are advo-
eating cutting down fads and frills
and urging that the nation return
to fundamentals. The three RS
are not education fundamentals, the
speaker declared, but rather the
three C'S are essentials, culture,
character and citizenship. Edu-
cation must meet the needs of a
changing civilization, and must not
be exactly that suitable for a past
generation.

Central high school in the county
oratorical contest, delivered his Or

Miss Helen Heffernan, chief of
the division of elementary schools
and rural education, was the second
speaker. Her theme was that while

its education to secure greater
political stability. She cited num-
erous figures to prove her point.
Discussing retrenchment in the
United States she said that this
year there are $4,000 more pupils
in the nations schools and $4,000
fewer teachers, while the cost of
education has been cut down $112,-
100000 in the nation and the
state budget has been reduced $48,-
100000
To effect the reduction, the state
school year has been shortened and
children are thrown back on their
and the public for a long
err period. There are four coun-
ties asking for a still shorter year.
She ended her talk with a plea for
a square deal for boys and girls.

May Holt Imports

WASHINGTON, May 2. U.P) -
Treasury officials intend to await
development of Chancellor Adolf
Hitler's program of compulsory la
Dor in Germany before considering
it's possible effect on German ex-
ports to this country.
The tariff law authorizes the
treasury to exclude goods produced
by forced, indentured or convict Ia
Dor, unless the domestic supply of
the goods in question is insuffi-
cient to meet demands. Efforts of
domestic producers to have this ban
invoked against products from Rus
STA and some other countries have
proved futile owing to differences as
to what constitutes forced labor and
difficulties in provong its existence.

her belief that "more young peo-
pie learned to drink in the first
three weeks of beers return than
during the whole of the prohibition
era.o
"This is a guess, " said Mrs.
Munns, "but it is my belief. The
tremendous amount of beer sold
shows that the wet claim Of ire
mendous oceans of bootleg beer was
even further wrong than we
thought. The bootlegging of hard
liquor has been steadily decreasing
and was always far too expensive
for wide and popular use.
