TWo Burglaries
Ouer Weekend

Two weekend burglaries were re-
ported to the sheriff IS office, ac-
cording to notices on file there.
A store operated by R. Armenia
at Andrade was entered through
the Skylight and the cash register
robbed some time last night, one
report states. That the thieves had
evidently been frightened away
before their work was completed
seems evident for when Armenia
returned he found that several
suit cases and a trunk had been
packed with clothing and other ar
ticles ready to be carted off but
had been left behind by the
thieves. A total of $50 together
with proceeds of sales for Satur-
Gay and Sunday comprised the loot
of the thieves A checkup is being
made today to determine the exact
loss.
8. F.. Dean, a Hindu who lives
on a ranch near WeStmOrland re-
ported to the sheriff that on Sat-
urday night his home was entered
and the following articles stolen:
a bed spread; suit case, pair
of trousers, II ladies dresses; one
ladies coat; two boxes of matches;
two pairs of ladies shoes; bottle
of Hindu perfume and the family
pictures. No clues to the thief were
discovered.

growing conviction that June Ro-

anguished parents today after con-
tinual efforts to contact her kid
napers had failed.
Officers and friends of Mr.. and
Mrs. Fernando Robles said the
family had received no reply to
their second public appeal to the
kidnapers TO accept $4,000 ransom
for their daughter IS freedom. The
father had been ordered TO pay
$4,000 in an original ransom note
delivered shortly after June was
abducted by a dark man April Is.
The increasing despair was re-
flected by one officer who said 'we

we were two hours after the kid

morning. The sheriff stated that
in spite of the fact that vester-

the appearance of this group there
were no reported disturbances in
any cantaloupe field of the valley.
Twenty extra state traffic Of
ficers aided in patrolling the high

might have arisen.
This morning Stanley Hancock

Wilmer Breeden and gave them
selves up to the authorities to
serve out the Jail sentences i'm
posed upon them in the Brawley
court for unlawful assembly in con-
nection with the recent lettuce
workers trouble early this year.
The pair had been out on appeal
but owing to the fact that their
appeal papers had not been filed
in court within the specified time
were not considered legal. AS a
result the two defendants return
ed here today to serve out the
sentences of six months each in

to accomplish its purposes.
Need for such a program was
stressed doubly by high relief ad-
ministration sources. in view of
tendencies against industrial decen-
tralization. One official said the
public works program was planned
to take care of rural people un-
til such time as private industry
sees the wisdom of decentraliza-
ton.
I'VE are not going to get home
with this thing unless we can tie
up what public works are going
to be done in America with farm
families" said Relief Administrator
Harry l.. Hopkins.
Government experts have esti-
mated that if one-half of the $780,
100000 being spent monthly for
relief were applied to the build
ing of subsistence homesteads,
there would be enough to put a
200-unit project in each of the
$500 agricultural countries Of the
nation This would mean that 500,-
900 families would be paid for con-
struction of their homes instead
of in cash benefits as at present.
Each homestead would have 10
to 20 acres of land, livestock and
workstock, implements. community
parks, and recreation halls.

cry Just as they did earlier when

Grains made a good comeback,
but not to the extent of the stock

hour earlier than the big board.
Wheat rallied more than a cent
from the lows and closed with frac-
tional losses. Corn cut early losses
by a cent and closed down about
a cent a bushel. Other cereals were
only fractionally changed. Other

HOT WEATHER
APPROVED BY
MELON MEN

At least for the melon growers
and shippers the early hot weather
has had its silver lining since -
has enabled them to ship their
crop almost a month earlier.
According to figures from the
federal state market news service
and given the Press by j. B. Nor
ton of the agricultural commission
er' IS office, by May IL of this year,
the total melon shipments equal
led 1856 cars, while ON the same
date last year only "a cars had
been shipped.
On May 13, DAT cars left the val
ley while in 1888 only seven were
shipped on May II and it was the
second day of June before the day IS
shipments were more than PAT cars.
Just to show the contrast in
weather, according to figures OBJ
tanned from the irrigation district
records at Imperial, on May II,
1888, the minimum temperature was
Al and a maximum of 70 was re-
corded. On May II of this year
the minimum temperature accord
ing to Howard EmmonS, local OBJ
server for the U. S. weather bureau,
was 10, and the maximum, ia.
In May of 1927, the highest tenn
peratures were recorded for that
month in any time with the ex-
ception of this May when all rec
ords were broken. On May 13, 1907,
a record temperature of ITO was
recorded but, and this may be of
comfort to those who are afraid
that hot weather is here for good,
on June 10 of 1927 minimum tenn
perature of 54 was recorded, a break
in the hot weather.

rolls thousand of depression strick-

new federal millions. the United
Press learned today.
On a national basis. the relief
administration will seek the cure
not only for this depression but
for other economic collapSes, the
plight of many chronic unem-
ployment sufferers.
The relief plan is modelled after
the experimental subsistence home
stead projects which now dot the
country. 1t is designed to aid farm
erS who are unable to earn food,
shelter and clothing. workers in
played out industries and city
workers capable of supporting
themselves in home agriculture.
In some instances self contained
industries would be correlated with
the relief communities.
Needy families may expect,
through operation of the plan, a
comfortable home, garden tools,
livestock, seed, sufficient ground
to grow vegetables for home con-
sumption, and part-time Jobs.
Success or failure of the pro-
gram, officials stressed rests with
state relief administrations, which,
under the Presidents new relief
policy. have been given the bulk
of responsibility for aiding the
poor.

/, 1885, will see the Broadway paved
from end to end, the only trans
continental road completely paved
and regarded SIS 10 years ahead of
itself and of its nearest compet-
titor.
AT the Dallas convention the
situation prevailing at Phoenix.
where efforts are being made to
divert all cars off the Broadway
and send them over the Blythe
route, was discussed and steps are
being taken, the El Centro dele
CATION reported, to make an alter
native U. S. Route 80 of the Gila
Bend-CaSa Grande cut off, paving
of which will be fully completed in
about three months. This route will
save about II miles and will form
a cross over between Gila Bend
and Tucson, shortening the time
by three hours and traversing the
grandest of all desert gardens of
the entire route, with literally tens
of thousands of the Arizona giant
cacti all along the highway. This
road will be designated as U. S.
Highway 80 South, as opposed to u.
S. Highway North, which goes to
the Salt River valley, thus per-
mitting travellers to take their
choice of the two roads and, if
desired. to save mileage on the
southern road.
Retiring President F. o. Mackey
lala tA he
pie of Phoenix and Salt River val
ley and endeavor to make some
plan whereby the purposeful, di-
vision of traffic would not occur.
Phoenix people it was brought
out, have been pretty solid
ly organized TO divert west
bound traffic off the Broadway
and send it to Los Angeles by way
of Blythe, entirely cutting off I'm
perial Valley. FL Centro represen-
tatives pointed out at the meeting
that, as El Centro is contributing
money to advertise and bring traf-
tic over the Broadway of Ameri-
ca, this willful diversion would not
be permitted and Broadway motor
lists should be allowed to continue
their journey over the Broadway.
In commenting on the trip Man
ager Hays of the El Centrc Cham
Der of Commerce, stated copies of
the All-American Canal Edition OF
the newspapers, which were sent
to me by express for distribution
at the convention, were received
with much interest and it was un-
animously agreed that the con-
struction of the All-American Canal
would draw large numbers of tour
lists over the Broadway. ....
Three different objectives were
achieved at Dallas one, was the
positive opposition to any re-rout-
ing of the Broadway of America
direct to Los Angeles which might
have eliminated Imperial Valley.
Two, the securing of the 1886 con-
vention for Ell Centre; three, cog
nizance of the unwholesome con-
dition existing at Phoenix and, ac-
tive planning 70 combat this sit
uation. In addition" Hays stated,
one of our El Centro residents
and civic workers was signally hon.
ored at the convention by being
made vice president, with certain
ty that next year he will be ad-
vanced to the presidency OF the
Broadway Association, the greatest
of all highway associations ever
formed"

Il find the growers with few ex-
ceptions carrying out the condi-
tions of the agreement which re-
suited from the conference held
between the growers and workers
on March 81, 1884,, Thomas A.
Barker, Los Angeles deputy state
labor commissioner stated this
morning. Barker was appointed by
Governor James Rolph, Jr., to in
vestigate conditions here particular
ly for the state office. He has been
in the valley during the past week.
I'VE have now been assured by
all the growers groups that full
compliance with the agreement
is being and will be observed" he
continued. His statement continues:
Workers representatives have
assured us that the agreement al
luded to is satisfactory to them
and they are anxious and willing
to do their part in further observ-
ing its conditions.
obviously, then, it is the duty
of everyone to permit this joint
relationship to function. The state
of California has recognized the
validity of this action on the part
of the groups of workers and grow
ers and is prepared to render any
assistance in its power to insure
its success.
Regarding rumors that outside
influences may be seeking to dis
rupt this relationship, We hope the
rumors are not correct but if they
are, the workers and growers are
entitled to and should get all the
protection necessary to insure the
peaceful carrying out of this agree
ment"
