EXCUSABLE FOLLY

IT is true that men and
l women at Christmas time
do things which are foolish,
especially in the giving OF
presents. But when did cold
wisdom ever make people
happy? Who wants to see a
Christmas when nobody
spends more than he should,
or when there is no giving Of
things that are trivial or need
less or foolish? A truly sane
Christmas would be a miser.

BERLIN, Feb. IL. UR)-Chancel-
lor Adolf Hitler appealed to the
German nation to save itself with
out hoping for outside aid, in his
first address in the general election
campaign in which the Nazis seek
a clear parliamentary majority.
Don't believe in help from 9TH
ers," Hitler told capacity audi
ence. Aid will never come from
the outside
The fiery Nazi chief cited delivery
Of the German fleet after the World
war, destruction of the merchant
marine, surrender of German colo
MES, and currency initiation as
"milestones in the nations utter hu-
miliation.'
He asked German voters to give
the government four years for full
filling its task"
Hitler did not define a definite
program for his government, which
includes sufficient percentage of
conservative members to throttle
the Nazi chief. The chancellor said
the government aimed to preserve
the farmers, "the cornerstone of
the national existence for thousands
of years" and to enable the work.

GUY MAY Be
OWN WITNESS

LONG BEACH, Cal. Feb. II. -
U.P;-William James Curly" Guy,
young Welsh soldier of fortune,
may ask II jurors to take his word
that he did not murder Walter
Wanderwell, Polish globe trotter.
The possibility that the smiling,
handsome youth might take the
stand in his own defense came
closer with the admission OF Eu-
gene McGann, Guys attorney,
that he might allow it. McGann's
statement was made at the close
of today's short session of court.
Il am not sure,' McGann said.
II have opposed Guys taking the
stand, because I have felt there
was no need for it, but may re-
consider over the weekend"
Observers saw in the possible de-
ciSion a bold move to make Guy
his own best "alibi" witness-to
bolster the testimony of his friends
with the word of an accused man.
1t loomed as a gamble on the curly
haired youths wide smile and the
air of quiet confidence which has
not deserted him since he was TAX
en- into custody five weeks.
Two witnesses have testified that
Guy was aboard the tramp Schoon-
er Carma at $3.50 on the night Of
December 5, few minutes before
a bullet ploughed through Wan
derwell's back. Two witnesses have
testified for the defense that Guy
was in bed at $3.50 that night at
the home Of Edward DeLarm, Ara
pahoe Indian aviator, in Glendale,
40 miles away.
Ralph Dunlap, aviation mechan-
ic, testified today that he saw Guy
in bed at DeLarm's hose at $50,
as DeLarm testified yesterday.
Betty DeLarm, slender 12-year-
old Indian child, attested her fa-
theirs statements, resisting stren-
uous cross by Deputy
District Attorney William Brayton.

CLIMATE D. K.
WITH VISITORS

THE last few days may seem
cold to Imperial Valley residents, "
states Robert Hays. manager of the
FL Centre Chamber of Commerce,
but visitors from the north who
drop in to visit at chamber head
quarters invariably remark upon
cur mild. sunny, winter weather,
and more persons who have visited
the chamber in the past month
have stated that they are consid-
ering making their home in this
community than ever before in the
same period of time.
Not only do we have many in
ouiries about conditions here at
our counter, but many letters have
been received in the mail asking
for prices on farm property, OF
which the following is a typical
example: Recently had the plea
sure of visiting your city. Both my
self and family are in love with
your country and would like to
contact a reliable broker on farm
and ranch lands.
HAYS states that these inquiries
do not come from persons looking
for work but from men who desire
to invest in farm or city property
and remain in the community per-
manently.
Many persons who have come to
Ell Centre to spend the winter
months for the improvement of
their health have expressed them
selves as well pleased with the re-
suits of their visit. One prominent
eastern resident who was unable to
walk when he arrived here less
than two months ago, reported at
the chamber that he is so improved
he will soon return to his home.
He is now strong and has gained
greatly in weight. When asked If
the rain here this winter had in
terfered with his, progress he stat
ed that he had not noticed the
rain there was so little. Hays points
out that our own residents do not
appreciate Imperial Valley weather
but that outsiders, who are used to
zero weather, snow and long rainy
seasons, recognize that our winters
are ideal, especially in winters
such as this, which has been un-
usually severe in all parts of the
country.
In summer" Hays states, "vis-
itors at the chamber state, it is
not nearly as warm as expected
and in winter it is warmer than I
expected. It will not be long un-
til the tales of our unbearable
summer weather are overlooked
and in their place will be nation
wide appreciation of Ell Centro's
winter climate, which will attract
hundreds of winter tourists of the
better class annually"

In speaking of business condi-

that he found the southwest in
better condition than the east,
adding that farmers of the middle
west and west are going through
much the same conditions that
eastern farmers had to meet dur
ing the past so years and which
caused many eastern farms to be
abandoned.
Less unemployment and less ac-
tual depression are to be found in
the southwest according to his OBJ
seryations. Until there is a rise
in commodity prices. conditions
will not be bettered is his belief,
initiation not being a wise step in
his opinion.
Today's visit was General After
