CHAMBER SENDS LITERATURE TO
495 INQUIRING ABOUT Ell CENTRIC

Literature concerning El Centro
was sent to 495 inquirers yesterday
by the Ell Centro Chamber of Com
merce, each having written to the
All Year Club of Southern Califor-
mia for information concerning I'M
perial Valley. County booklets are
sent to each of these writer's by T.
T. LangloiS, secretary of the AS =
sociated chambers of commerce of
Imperial county and the lists are
then referred to individual cham
bers for their use.
From the local chamber enve-
lopeS go to these inquirers con-
tanning an Ell Centro city booklet,
a specially prepared article on WIN
ter climate by Fred A. Baughman,
an article on health in Imperial
! Valley by DR.. Warren F.. Fox, and 4
report on actual temperatures and
one entitled "347 Days of Sunshine, -
prepared from statistics gathered by
H. D. EmmOns and the Imperial r.
rigation District. In the group sent
out Tuesday was also included the
1888 crop report, as compiled by B.
A. Harrigan and mimeOgraphed by
the Ell Centro Chamber of Com
merce, and a new points of interest
map of Imperial County which the
local chamber has mimeographed
under new process.
statistics compiled by the ALI
Year club and based on years of
experience indicate that these in
quirerS are primarily prospective
tourists who plan to visit California,
rather than persons who plan to
make investments here" state Rob-
ert Hays, manager of the Ell Centro
Chamber today. The Ell Centro
Chamber staff has therefore pre-
pared a quantity of mimeographed
material emphasizing the climate,
health and points of scenic interest
in and around Ell Centro which will
appeal to prospective visitors. We do
not expect these people to come to
Ell Centre with the intention of re-
naming here, but we do want to at
tract them and hold them in Ell
Centro during a few months of the
year in order that we may have our
rightful share of CALIFORNIA; enor-
nous tourist income.

ROOSEVELT AND CONGRESS
 SHOWING GOOD TEAM WORK
(By The Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5 - Pres ident Roosevelt and Congress are showing good team work so far. They concentrated on the devel- opment program for permanent domestic djustment, which was largely showed aside by interna- tinnal problems. Quarters close to the president represented him as pleased both at the general ten- uer on Capitol hill and the speed that Congress showed in tackling its tasks.
 Indications came from the White House that Roosevelt is giving renewed consideration to the bi-met alic monetary program. The li- qaor tax b.ll looked as if it might be passed before nightfall. The treasury is preparing for quick start for credit borrowing, that in the next six months the total will reach ten billion dollars. It also got down of compiling the war debt statement demanded by the Senate.

 Returning to home problems he said: ''We have been shocked by notorious examples of injuries done by citizens, by persons. or groups of persons, who have been living of their neighbors by the use of methods either unethical or criminal. and calls for stringent preventive or regulatory measur- es. am speaking of those in- dividuals who evade the spirit and purpose of our tax laws; those |high officials of banks and corpor- |ations who have grown rich at the expense of their stockholders oI | te public---those reckless speculat- Iors. with their own or others mon. ley whose operations injured val Iues, farmers crops. and the savings Of the poor

HIGH LIGHTS ON ROOSEVELT'S MESSAGE
 TO CONGRESS-.
tBy The Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4 Pres ident Roosevelt frankly reported to Congress prospective nine billion dollars recovery Campaign deficit in the next two years. He asked that the Ed be clamped down to put the government on pay as as you go basis by 1936. In a message Transmitting the budget of estimated expenditures charge able to. the recovery effort of al- most seven billion five hundred million for this fiscal year end- ing. June 30th. he asked two .hil- lion dollars in the war chest to continue and taper off this drive for the following year. He said |all this involves the government borrowing ten billion dollars dur ling the next six months, but ex- pressed no doubt about meeting this problem of nine billion deficit which would swell the public debt for all time as high as thirty two billin eight hundred and th:r- two billion eight hundred and thir- ty four million dollars.
 This does not take into account the prospective new taxes from liquor revenue, and plugging in come tax loop holes. There was 10 recommendation for new taxes.
 The Pres.de did recommend the restoration of one third of the 15 percent pay cut of federal em- ployees, effective July 1st. He favored the continuation of the three non-local mail rate, as in his personal address in the House chamber yesterday
 Roosevelt spoke optimistically of the bus ness outlook and said Ithat if the course outlined was maintained, Eve can confidently look forward to an increased vol |ume of business, more general profit. greater employment, dim lunition of relief expenditures, lar Iger government receipts, and re- Ipayment in greater human hap piness..
 In the message 1t is noted that |ihe budget for the new year, the first he has submitted to Congress: shows a reduction of nearly six hundred and eighty five millions of dollars in the reduction of the regular ordinary expenditures, oy- fer the budget submitted a year ago by the outgoing administration. The huge reconstruction corpora- tion was called upon to finance much business and the banking structnre of the nation is charge abie with almost four billion of the seven billion dollars deficit for. this year.
 Reductions predominate in the national parks budget during the fiscal year 1885 as compared with Ithat of 1884. The Mckinley Ma tional Park budget is $22,270.0O as compared with $2s,4sO of the current fiscal year.

armament This with Great Britain determined 10 increase her cruiser strength by at least twenty. lJapan defines as "defensive' the submarine rms with Great Britain still poignantly remembering what the submarine did to her in the war, antt with the United States still remembering the em- ergence upon the surface of Chesapeake Bay or the German submarine Deutschland, and the subse- ouent destruction of shipping off the New England coast by German submarines. And since the war the submarine has developed into a vessel that goes around the world and ranges the seven seas.
 There is however another and very important, portion of the naval situation in which Great Britain and Japan in harmony. This has to do with the size of the capital ship. Great Britain wishes the 350O0 vessel to be reduced to 25000 tons or less Here Japan is in complete accord with her and it is certain that Japan will make the most of her opportunity. That Japan yearns for a re- newal of thosefrelations with Great Britain which were terminated by the Washington Agreements IS perfectly clear She will go long way to recarture the friendship of Great Britain, and her states men are striving nightly for that object Not without significance is the highly successful conclusion Of the effort of the mission of the Federation Of British Industries for trade privileges in Manchukuo announced yesterday But the disappearance of the 35 oO0-ton shpsis not yet at hand. Japan, for her defensive" purposes, does not require it. Great Britain with the short distances between her pos sessions and her fueling stations does not need it in anything like the degree that the United States does, with the great distances which her vessels must traverse between her home ports and her overseas possessions Moreover, the apparent determination of Italy to build two 35o00-ton ships preparation for which is well under way has dis tinct bearing upon this particular phase of the situation and it will have pronounced effect upon Great Britain's conclusions.
 That Japan expects her proposals to be accepted without severe amendment is not probable. She may be prepared however, to declare her independ- ence of the rest of the world in naval matters as she declared it in the matter of the mainland of Asia One thing seems certain. If she is not pre- paredto amend or to compromise, there will hardly be naval conference in 1885 And if the naval coriversatfons going on in London reveal the same adamant nationalisms that characterized the Geneva effort of 1927 the effort will be frutless But hope for agreements need not be abandoned until the last word has been spoken. Never did the world need international cooperation in every respect more than it does today.

NEWS SENSIBLE ENCOURAGING

large whiskey manufacturing company has re- gently released an advertising campaign the first piece of copy of which is headed, We, who make whskey say Drink Moderately"
 The unusual the different, makes It is news when a manufacturer of product advises its potential market to buy and use the product mod eratey. In this particular the course of the merchandising division of this manufacturers organi zation is pursuing most sensible course particularly at this time.
 Prohibition seemed to sweep away all inhibitions in drinking The temperance movement lost fifty years of progress during the Prohibition The substituting of a man-made law for moral law apparently seemed to take away the individual re- sponsibility of millions of people. They 'et down. People who never drank before, started to do so during Prohibition times. Over indulgence was rampant in practically all levels of society. Drunk enness tolerated in groups that would have condemned it roundly, before Prohibition
 The pre-Prohbition code of moderation in drinking that was growing steadily was lost and largely for gotten in the melee of Prohibitions prosperity" and the hectic 1920's.
 It is encouraging to a liquor manufacturer advance the cause of temperance It should be significant to individuals It will undoubtedly con- tribute to and further trend towards moderation in drinking
 The liberty that repeal has given to the citizens should not be abused. Consumers, dealers, manu- lecturers of liquor have responsibility Through moderation only can they preserve the personal liberty that the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment has given to the people of the United States, and it's possessions.
