between the two boards relative to
the connecting of the sewer at the

last Wednesday night. At that time
the matter was referred to a COM
mittee of the council for further

ate shares to be borne by both the
city and the county in the installa-

cit is regretted that the matter
cannot be given consideration at
this time but, if the request is re-
neWed shortly before the date of
the dedication Of the canal, it is
possible that the department might
be able to cooperate officially
through the medium of special
issue OF postage stamps
1t would be a great achieve
ment,'' said Manager Hays of the
chamber of commerce, "if We
could have a commemorative issue
showing the All-American canal

tiles, perhaps one stamp depicting
cur lettuce and another showing
our early Imperial Valley canta-
loupe.

not neglect the matter at the prop

that a commemorative issue of an
Imperial Valley postage stamp will
result. -

CRITICS HIT
BY HOPKINS
Federal Relief Administrator

Manufacturers.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9. U.P) =
Harry L. Hopkins. federal relief ad-
ministrator, indicated today that
his organizations work relief pro-
gram will continue as usual de-
spite protests from the National
Association Of Manufacturers.
Hopkins denounced bitterly the
organization which he declared had
fought every wortnwmle advance
in America"
The manufacturers association is
sued a statement Sunday to the
effect that a poll of its member
ship revealed disapproval of any
government competition with pri-
vate industry even to supply relief
for the unemployed.
Il am not surprised that the
manufacturers association does not
approve of the relief program"
Hopkins said. "1t has fought every
worthwhile advance in America. 1t

labor. 1t fought the eight hour
day"
He said the work program was
designed to aid the needy by en-
abling them to make clothes and
other articles for themselves.
I'VE have about 2000 work rooms
in operation. These give employ
ment to approximately 10000 per-
sons" he added.
The unemployed who work in
these rooms make clothes for their
children and themselves, make mat
tresses for their homes and can
food which they raise in their gar
denS.
THE products which they make
cause no loss to the manufacturers
of the country save for the pos
sible exception of canned food. In
all other cases it is safe to say that
if the articles were not made by
the needy themselves they would
never be purchased, not by the re-
lief administration at least, be-
cause we simply do not have the
money

LABOR CHIEFS
STAGE FIGHT
FOR CONTROL.
German And Lewis Pressing In
On Green To Dictate A. F. L.
Policies.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 9. U.P)-
Shoulder to shoulder John L. Lewis,
mine worker, and Francis J. Cor
man, textile worker, worked today
to steer the American Federation
of Labor from its traditional place
among craft unions into the some
what unexplored field of union Or
ganization by industries.
The problem was the next big
question before the 54th annual
convention which unanimously and
enthusiastically committed organ
lied labor to ask and work "eter-
nally, immovably and uncompromis-
ingly" fer acceptance by industry
and government of the 30-hour
work week.
The rouSing roar of acclaim the
433 delegates gave the SiX-hour day,
five day campaign sponsored
by Pres. William Green was sweet
music to the ears of the federation
chieftain. But not SO sweet was the
evidence of growing strength in the
Lewis German campaign to turn the
federation at least partially from
emphasis on craft unions to greater
activity in organizing industrial
unions
The issue was approaching a show
down vote today as the convention
assembled in Polk hall. The chances
were that it will be made a special
order OF business, the procedure
planned in another important con-
troverSial matter-the schism in the
Building Trades department.

U,P)-The ST. Louis Cardinals, Of
the National league, became the
world champions of baseball today
when they defeated the Detroit I'll
gers, of the American league, IL to
0 in the seventh and deciding game
of the worlds series.
The Cardinals won the game in
the third inning, counting seven
times in that frame, off process
sion of Tiger pitchers. In all the
fighting Cards made seven hits in
that inning, batting around with
three to spare.
The game began and ended in
that frame, although the Cards
went on to score two more in the

1t was his second victory of the
series He lost one game.
Eden Auker was the starting
pitcher. but a hit barrage in the
third forced him to the showers.
Rowe, Hogsett, Bridges, Marberry
and Crowder completed the Tiger
pitching parade.
The victory meant some $4,000 TO
b each player of the winning Cards
and some $4,000 to each of the los
ing Tigers. Thus the difference be-
tween winning and losing represen-
ted approximately $1,700.
The game was enlivened by hos
tile demonstration toward Ducky
Wucky Medwick, the Cardinal left
fielder. He collided with Marvin
Owen, Tiger third baseman, while
running into that base. The fans
thought the collision was intention
al on Medwick'S part and greeted
him with barrages of fruit when he
went to take his position i'll left
field. Finally at the insistence of
Baseball Commissioner Lands,
Medwick was removed from the
game, and play was resumed.

MAY CHANGE:
CANAL ROUTE
At CAL.EX|CO

Rerouting OF the CaleXico sector
OF the All-American canal SO
that it will pass through that city
and not to the north of it, was
brought to the attention Of the ir-
rigaticn district board of directors
at their meeting THIS morning
through a. resolution presented
them by the Calexico chamber Of
commerce.
During the discussion of the
question, M. j. Dowd district en-
gineer pointed out that extreme
care must be taken in this matter
as the cracking CT long spillWay
through the city of CaleXlco IN the
event of an earthquake, would
cause great damage to property
there. The board finally stated it
was favorable to subnijoing this
proposal to engineers of the rec
lamation bureau, urging that it be
given serious consideration.
The resolution of the Calexico
board states that the canal if con-
structed as at present surveyed
around the northern boundaries OF
the city, it would tend to isolate
the city from the remainder OF the
valley in both business and traffic.
Furthermore, such a move would
prevent the city'S residence devel-
opment to the north which is its
only possible direction Of develop
ment and would constitute SER
iouS detriment to many valuable
ranches and homes and might,
eventually present serious seepage
problem in the sandy soil along
this route.
1t states further that a recent
survey has been made along a new
ly proposed route from the central
main canal westerly along the in
ternational boundary line to and
through CaleXico and across New
River at the west CaleXico city
limits and thence continuing west
erly along the boundary to the
weStside main canal. A canvass of
the Calexico city and rural COM
munity was made in which no def
mite opposition to the proposed
canal route was found. It is also
stated that the cost Of such move
would be very reasonable in con-
cideration of the benefits to be de-
rived.
