much publicity. Yet he's willing to
go through with all the incon-

pick up thirty or thirty five thous-

real sporting gesture.
It's entirely probable that the
Rose Bowl committee. unwilling
for Mara to make such a sacri-
flee, won't answer his wire. This
would be regrettable. First because
he deserves reply, and secondly
because selection of the Giants
would be a swell idea. The Giants
are professionals it's true, but so
is the idea of the Rose Bowl game
which unless our information is
haywire, is sponsored by the cham

The Rose Bowl fathers need have
no fear about the Giants as a

and for all the argument concern
ing the relative merits of the pro
and college game.
Personally, I don't see where
there's any argument. I've seen
half a dozen of the hired (and
when I say hired I mean openly
hiredD outfits this season. and any
one of them could take any college
team I ever saw and bust it wide
open. The talk about professional
players taking it easy in tackling
and blocking is heard no more. The
boys are out there performing for
board and room, and let no one
tell you that combination isn't
just as much incentive as dear
old Rutgers, dear old Harvard or
dear old West Coast Marines.
But I must say no more. Mara
will be sore as the devil at me
for writing this much. for he
wanted to keep this gesture secret.
The fact that a copy of his wire
landed on my desk was pure ac-
cident.

'NORTHROP SUBMITS REPORT
ON FARM BUREAU MEETING

California s agricultural problems
received serious consideration at
last week S meeting of the annual
convention of the Imperial County
Farm Bureau, according to the re-
port submitted by Earl V. c. North
rop, state delegate from Imperial
county, in an exclusive interview
with The Press
In his report Northrop empha-
sized the fact that the convention
lacked the gaiety of previous af-
fairs but instead was marked by a
serious determination to consider
the grave problems confronting the
farmers of the state. Northrop
was made a member of the reSolu-
tionS committee and as such play
ed a prominent part in the conven-
ton.
Among the resolutions of interest
locally were several relative to hay
and field crop grading and to the
dairy industry.
A resolution was passed asking
the state to continue the hay grad
ing service. operating it under the
revolving fund, until such time as
an agreement is made for COM
pulsory grading under the Agricul-
tural Adjustment Act or until some
ether provision is made.
The state farm bureau was asked
to attempt to bring into harmony
the various differing elements so
that the grading of field crops
might be made a part of the state S
work instead of operating under
private agencies as at present.
In regard to education, the re-
search department of the state
farm bureau federation was asked
to make a joint study with the
state department of education con-
cerning the school problems and to
report their findings to the feder-
alton.
Resolutions of interest to dairy
manufacturers include endorsement
of the Robson bill to the extent OF
indemnification for tubercular COWS
destroyed in a herd but not for
those Gull animals destroyed. The

greatest worries with Bob (King

Ask Butter Purchase
Furthermore resolution was
passed asking the federal govern
ment to purchase surplus butter
from Pacific coast dairymen so as
to bring butterfat to the 1909 and
1914 price level.
The President of the United
States and the secretary of agricul-
ture were asked in another reSolu-
ton to tax imported oils, edible
and non-edible so that the indus
tries Of this country might COM
pete equally.
In regard to the sales tax, the
general principle was endorsed and
a resolution passed asking the state
federation s tax research depart
ment to study the problem and
make constructive recommendations
regarding alterations in the present
tax to avoid pyramiding and dupli-
cation which now result.
The executive officers of the farm
bureau were directed to secure an
alteration in rules and regulations
for federal farm loans SO that
farmers might obtain speedy relief
from the burden of indebtedness
and "if necessary to secure fulfill
ment, our executive officers are di-
rected to work for the removal OF
the present management of the

ministration.
Question of the fuel tax refund
was taken up and in a resolution
which stated that evasion coulo
be handled with reasonable eff
cheney on the part of the officials
but that it was recommended that
if the refund is eliminated ther
the tax is a general tax and as
such should be placed in the gen.

SAILOR LOSES
HIS bANkR0LL

Dreams of a furlough spent amid
the pleasant surrounding of his
Boston home were rudely shattered
here last night for one of Uncle
Sans sailor boys from San Diego
when he fell into the hands of two
sharpers and was trimmed of near
ly all of his available cash. AS a re-
suit of this experience his furlough
trip was Cancelled and he is return
ing to San Diego where he will be
in less dangerous surroundings
According to the report made to
police last night, the sailor who ar
rived on the stage from San Diego
at o'clock, was met at the depot
here by two very well-dressed men
who struck up conversation with
him. This was followed by sug-
gestion that the trio take walk
up Broadway. AS the bus was due
to make a half hour stopover here
such little stroll was right in order
to get the kinks out of ones legs,
similar to the seventh inning
stretch. -
During the short stroll one Of the
strangers suggested matching nick
els which met with the approval OF
the other stranger and the sailor.
Suddenly one of the men proposed
they match for $3.50 but the tar
said all he had was S68 in cash.
That was all right, provided one OF
the strangers held this money while
the matching was going on. The
currency changed hands and when
about to match for the larger
stakes the holder of them cried out;
Police, run, see you around the
corner" and he with his compan-
ion suddenly took to their heels
leaving the sailor looking in vain
fol- the policeman who failed to ma
terialize.
Police are locking for the two
slickers who are thought to be the
same pair who fleeced other travel
ers here earlier this year.

 Such an organization would deal with such matters as extraditiOn, white slavery, drug smuggling and the tracing of confidence men but indicated it would not deal with kidnapping gangs as they are con- sidered to be a peculiar American criminal institution.
 It is indicated that the Interna- tional Criminal Police Commission with headquarters at Vienna, may serve as the nucleus of the Europ- can organization and a new anti crime bureau in the Department of Justice in Washington, D. C., will be the western hemisphere head quarters.
