The following statement was
issued this afternoon from the
district attorneys office:
The board Of supervisors of
the county OF Imperial, State of
California, the district attorney
of the county of Imperial and
the sheriff of the county of Inn
perial, upon being interviewed.
have emphaiscaily denied the
statement to the effect that
constitutional rights of persons
or individuals have been inter-
fered with by police officers.
There is no foundation in
fact or truth in this statement
and every person arrested dur
ing the recent Communist agi-
tation and resultant disorders
in Imperial county, has in every
instance, been given a fair and
impartial trial and in no case
has any of these persons been
deprived of his constitutional
rights.
Concluding their Investigations
into labor conditions in Imperial
county which have been made by
means of conferences with en-
ployers, workers and officials dur
ing the past eight days, General
Pelham D. Glassford, federal labor
conciliator and John Phillips, chair
man of the state commission, left
the valley shortly after noon today
Before taking their departure
however, the following statements
were issued to the people of the
county through the press. The
first of these is letter from Glass
ford to B. M. Graham, chairman
of the board of supervisors:
Although I had signified my inten-
ton of rendering, before my depar-
ture, brief report on the import

investigation during the past eight
days has resulted in the accumula-
ton of a mass of notes, documents
and observations that will require a
few days to digest. Consequently,

Farmers declared themselves more
than satisfied with the market place
set up in Minneapolis by the State
Department of Agriculture, which pro-
vided place apart from the central
market district where farmers could
sell their produce during the strike.
The market, which was established at
the order of Governor Olson, has been
doing rushing business, with prices
generally higher than in the regularly
established market place. On the
first day of the strike, 211 farmers en-
tered the new market and sold out
their produce by 1870 a. m. The
second day 1877 farmers were sold out
and on the third day 254 truck farm
ers disposed of their produce by 1915
a. m. In fact, so well has the market
operated that 100000 has been asked
from the federal government through
the Federal Bank for Co-operatives in
ST. Paul, to establish the market place
as a cooperative project.
