GROCER CODE
IS CONFIRMED

The local Food and Grocery Dis
tributors Code Authority, elected at
mass meeting of grocers held in
February, has received official con-
firmation from Washington. Dis
trict No. !, State of California in
cludes San Diego and Imperial
counties. The members of this
board are: w. D. Ballinger (Haas

Moulton independent retailer
treasurer; j. B. A. Brennan (Klau-
Der Wangenheim Coz secretary;
D. D. Williams Piggly Wiggly CO..;

The board is arranging for the
selection of an advisory committee
of Imperial Valley grocers through
whom all official information may
be impaired to the grocers in that
area.
At an early date an executive
secretary will be selected, and all
inquiries will receive prompt and
courteous treatment. Pending the
announcement of this permanent
appointment, any member of the
board will cheerfully give all pos
sible assistance to members of the
trade.
Special attention is called to the
minimum markup provisions for
labor allowance effective March 81:
wholesale Trade-The allow
ance for actual wages of labor
which must be included in the sell
ing price of all food and grocery
products, covered by the code, eX-
cept as provided in Article VII, Sec
ton II of the code, shall be not
less than two per cent of the in
voice or replacement cost, which
ever is lower, after deduction of all
legitimate trade discounts exclusive
of cash discounts for prompt pay
ment, of any such product.
"Retail Trade-The allowance
for actual wages of store labor which
must be included in the selling
price of all food and grocery pro-
ducts, covered by the code, except
as provided in Article VIII, Sections
and of the code, shall be not
| less than six per cent of the in
voice or replacement cost, which
ever is lower, after deduction of all

i've of cash discounts for prompt
payment of any such product.
! 1t is estimated that upwards of
1000 grocery and meat establish
ments in the two counties are sub
ject to this code, and it thus is by
far the largest group in this area
operating under any NRA code. As
sessment notices, calling for the
number of employees in each es-
tablishment will be mailed every
grocery and meat store, the assess
ment being one dollar per person
employed Gncluding proprietor or
manager per year. Grocers should
not make any payments until they
receive this official notice. 1t is
particularly important that under
no circumstances should grocerS
make payments to anyone for the
local code authority before they re-
ceive the official notification with
directions as to payment. 1t is ex-
pected that these notices will bt
mailed within the next week or so

PACIFIC COAST
LEAGUE GAMES
By United Press

Eight stronger and better bal
anced baseball teams launched the
1884 campaign in the Pacific Coast
league today. determined to recap
ture the interest of fandom which
had waned through two "depres
sion" years.
The optimistic psychology of the
new deal pervaded the atmosphere
as the Seattle India rs opposed the
San Francisco Seals; the San Fran
cisco Missions met the Sacramento
Senators; the Portland Beavers took
on the Los Angeles Angels, 1888
champions, and HoIlyWoods Stars
clashed with the Oak land club.
After two penny rinching cam
paigns, the league again offered
the class AA ball at which it is
rated. MagnateS unbOosened purse
strings over the winter months to
acquire new players and to carry
larger squads. Trades were made to
bring more experienced players into
the circuit. Two teams presented
new managers, Gabby Street at the
head of the Missions and Walter
McCredie at Portland.
Fans responded to the revival eff
fort by larger attendance at exhibi-
ton games. Magnates sought to
catch and hold their interest by
numbering the players, by permit
ting radio broadcasts of the games,
by dotting lineups with one or two
players more popular as entertain
ers than as ball players. League
heads themselves caught the spirit
Of the new deal by dressing the UNI
pireS in more colorful attire.
Los Angeles, San Francisco and
Hollywood shared fayoritism as the
strongest clubs as the campaign got
under way.
The program for the opening
games, including the probable bat
terry selections, follows.

VALLEY WILL
De AIDED BY
LEGISLATION

Imperial countys agriculture will
profit by recent congressional &C
ton according to a statement made
today by c. o. Hoober, president
of the Imperial County Farm
Bureau who further points out
the important part played by the
farm bureau.
The number of basic crops under
the AAA has been increased and
now includes flax, cattle, barley
grain, sorghum, rye and peanuts,
the first four of which are i'm
portant valley crops
In all probability they will carry
processing tax, states Hoober
and if a reduction control program
is carried out, it is reasonable to
believe that the government will
ask the growers what method they
favor, this having been done for
other crops.
In including these basic crops in
making changes in the administa-
ton of the AAA, congress has fol-
lowed the recommendations made
by the farm bureau In addition
the s200,0O0,000 fund for dairy
relief has been advocated by the
farm bureau
Hoober points out however that
while all these things have been
advanced by the government as
methods to help farmers, it is the
farmers who have to see that they
are carried out. I'VE must step
on the starter to see that they are

Milk Inspection
To Be Unified

Milk inspection in all cities of the
valley will now be under the coun-
ty health department following
action to that effect taken yes
terday afternoon by the board of
supervisors.
Formerly each city of the county
had its own milk inspection SER
vice but this has now been unified
under the direction of the county
office with each bearing its pro-
portionate share of the costs.
The board authorized the con-
tinuance of the presence of a
deputy sheriff in Westmorland un-
til July l. Dee Keesee who has
been acting in that capacity in
Westmorland during the past few
months will retain his position

NIP REVOLT.
IN URUGUAY

MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay, April
3. U.P)-A plot against the govern
ment was revealed today with the
arrest of several suspects, said to
include army officers.
Apparently an outbreak had been
planned for this morning. The in
terror minister minimized the i'm
portance of the plot, adding:
1.-The government is and will be
mistaken In previous plots, the
government merely prevented any
outbreaks and deported the leaders,
but this time we will not be leni-
ent. The present plot is not only
against men in the government, but
against the immediate return of
normal conditions, signified by the
coming election on April 49,
A communique of the army gen.
eral staff said:
"Some members of the army
completely forgot their discipline
and loyalty and became allied with
dark, reactionary forces seeking to
provoke chaos and internal strug-
gle.'
1t added that those responsible
would be punished without mercy.

WARNING ON
WAGNER BILL

WASHINGTON, April 3. U.P)-A
warning that the seeds of revolu-
ton lay in the Wagner labor dis
pute bill was delivered to the SEN
ate labor committee today by Wal
lace B. Donham. dean of the Har-
ward graduate school of business
administration.
European experience gives ev-
cry reason to believe that too much
without slow educational processes
subjects the country to the dangers
of tyranny and CT drastic conflicts.
cit is step in the direction of
making revolution eaSy'
Donham said it was undesirable
to put through industrial reforms
quickly by Fiat. He declared the
organized labor movement was not
yet ready to take this kind of lead
ership. He said the depression
should not be used Ito get all
kinds of reforms put on the statute
books
eff we push such changes
through, he said, 1--WE may bring
on fresh calamities. There is grave
danger that undebated political
reforms may create just as severe
Embellishments as the speculative
economic excuses of the period
from 1926 to 1922
Donham said that if the Wagner
bill passed it "would be a danger
to all moderate movements in this
country
He favored a federal labor law

BATTLE
To PUbL|C|ZE
INCOME TAXES

WASHINGTON, April 3. UP)-
An effort to throw full publicity on
all income tax returns to reduce
such large scale tax avoidance as
was revealed in the senate stock
market investigation, was planned
today by Senator Robert M La Fol-
lette (Rep) Wisconsin.
La Toilette IS father, the famous
"Fighting Bobn waged battle for
tax publicity for years. Now
young Bob'' is carrying on the
family tradition.
La Toilette will have the support
of Senator James CouzenS (Rep0
Michigan, and George w. Norris
(Rep) Nebraska, in the fight which
he intends to make in connection
with the $33O,000,O00 tax bill now
before the senate.
The contention of the Liberal
group which has sought the pub
licity feature in tax bills is that if
all facts in connection with large
incomes are open to public scrutiny
there will be less chance to dodge
the law
Strict secrecy prevails on income
tax returns now. Persons handing
returns in the internal revenue bu-
reau are subject to severe penalties
for any mention of individual in
comes or deductions outside their
offices.
1t has been charged in congress
sional debate that billions of dol
lars have been lost to the federal
treasury by tax lodging in the last
10 years. 1t is claimed that most
of these practices would be elimi-
mated by full publicity.

' SACRAMENTO, April 3. U.P) -
The scene of Max Baers somewhat

The stay here is considered only

DAMRON GIVES
STATEMENT ON
HIS CANDIDACY

Friends who are sponsoring my
candidacy for city council, at the
municipal election to be held on
April 9, have requested me to make
statement relative to my attitude
if elected to the board.
I have been a resident of this
county since 1000 pioneer who
has observed a desert wilderness de-
velop into one of the most fertile
garden spots in the world. AS "the
ropes of the past ring the bells Of
the transitory hardships of the past
will be reflected in the prosperity
of the future. In my estimation,
the greatest period of development
is at hand and that the "prosper-
ity just around the corner will
soon be an actually.
This progressive era just ahead
of us will necessarily require sound
common-sense business judgment in
the administration of public af-
fairs, and a familiarity with the
needs and problems of the valley
in general and Ell Centre in partic-
ular.
I believe that my "a years eX-
perience in Imperial county, dur
ing which interval 1 have been ac-
lively engaged in the cattle bus
mess, is qualification that cannot
be overlooked as a requisite for a
constructive business administra-
ton.
In conclusion, wish to emphasize
that l am NOT and will NOT be
governed or dominated by any in
dividual, faction or clique if elect
ed, I will constantly strive to
serve ALL of the people at ALL
times, to the best of my ability.

form and did everything but kick,
shove and bat the ball into the cup
In some strange manner, a copy
of Mr.. Halls interview fell into the
hands of the travelling profession
ais and their boss-herder, Bob Har-
low 1t made them mad. Very mad.
So mad, in fact, that they sent a
telegram of indignation. The fact
that the telegram was sent charges
paid, instead of collect, proved how
sore they were.
The wire contained some inter-
esting quotes" from Johnny Far
rell, Henry Picard, Denny Shute,
and others. Here's how Mr.. Farrell
considered the criticism:
Il am very much surprised that
Hall should make such a statement.
Stop. 1t has been proven that win
ter golf tournaments have increaS-
ed the interest in golf and that the
professionals live up to the ethics
of the game and have set a tine
standard of style. Stop. For Hall to
say that the boys kick, jab or scrape
the ball around the course is Ger
tainly a ridiculous statement for a
former P. G. A. president to make.
Stop. Everyone knows that the pro-
fessionalS are not money mad
when they pay their own expenses
on the winter tour and only five
per cent Of the boys who play III
the tournaments make money. Stop.
These players have contributed IA
great deal to the game Stop"
Henry Picard, the Charleston, S.
c., professional who recently won
the north and south at Pinehurst,
said that he expected to win his
next tournament by field goal"
Shute, British open champion,
said that he didn't remember kick
ing his ball during his 70 holes at
Augusta in the Masters invitation,
but there were several times when
felt like doing it,"
Another item the boys didn't like
in Mr.. Halls estimate was his state
ment to the effect that once you
have seen Bob Jones, Ed Dudley and
Macdonald Smith, you have seen
all the real swingers there are. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Harlow, who regards
the winter tournaments as the real
college of golf where professionals
complete their education, it seems
strange that the boys who can't
swing manage to tour 18 holes in the
sixties.
To tell you the truth, it seems sort
of strange to me.
