Municipal problems. particularly
those of legal nature were
brought To the attention of MEM
bers of the Imperial county branch
of the State League of Municipal
tiles at meeting held in CaleXico
lest evening. The meeting was
largely attended, about so repre-
sentatives from the different valley
municipalities being present with
six attending from El Centro.
I. a. Stewart. head Of the Safe
way Stores in Les Angeles, a mem
Der of the Pasadena city council
and president of the league. was
the main speaker on the program.
He called for a better cooperation
between the different munieipali-
ties of the state in order that the
state government, generally, might
be improved by such a program.
ReVitalizing Of the present form of
government instead of the installa-
ton Of an entirely new system was
the accommodation made by the
speaker.
Louis Burke, attorney for the
league presented an outline OF the
legislative program which the state
league will offer to the legislature
at the next meeting of that body.
Among the main recommendations
in this program is the proposal
that one-half cent of the present
gasoline tax should be turned over
10 the cities fer the maintenance OF
streets. Another point in this pro-
gram to be recommended to the
legislature was q proposal which
would eurtail the liability Of mum
icipalities regarding damage claims
due to injuries received through
defective streets and sidewalks.
Senator Euise Talks
Ben Hulse. state senator, in com-
menting On these proposals did
not favor any further diversion of
gasoline tax money but thought the
half-eent tax might be added to the
present tax to secure the money
desired fer city street maintenance.
He also favored legislation which
would limit municipal liabilities in
regard to accidents.

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING

- J. w. Hanson editor of) the New Smyrna (Florda) Daily News says
 s"The nquisitive nature of the American people has made us expermenters in great many things. We are people peculiarly given to imagining that some better way exists than the one in use.
 We have climaxed this tendency in efforts towards business and industrial recovery but finding that the old practice of relying upon individual initiative and has perfect alternatives that society IS made up of individuals and that each must do his part to make any large-scae effort success.
 "Oftentimes we fall into the of depending too
 much legislation do the jobs that in the natural scheme of things meant for individuals And so we fall into the of trusting to power to pull our own individual businesses out of the slough of depression But gradually learning again that each man is to large in America, the master of his own tate and that is up to us business to oot own horns to do our advertising
 Good business men know that every successful busi- venture is founded upon newspaper advertising They know that regardless of how much theorze we come back to the unacceptable fact that newspaper advertising IS as important to the individual business the articles ot the Constitution to the American government Both serve
 purpose which cannot be dispensed with Both contain certain fundamentals which cannot be exchanged for methods without incurring great sacrifices"

:. CANADIAN VIEW OF U. S.
Juneau Empire

With great popular vote swung III behind Democratic candidates for public offices of all degree the people ot the United States on Nov 9th endorsed the New Deal of Pres dent Roosevelt through what possibly the most stupen dous popular Liberal gesture in the history of the world
 Similarly they defeated Upton Sinclair in California, thus showing that United States in Canada people ot our race and tradition consider that Liberalism sufficient to work essential reform without any recourse to the radical forces of Socialism.
 Our new age of abundance requires system of money and by which the shall be able to buy as much ood clothing and shelter they can produce
 So President Roosevelt must in the next few months prove that the Capital system rid itself ot enough hu1- bug and profit and debt to meet this challenge else states in America and Canada and England inevitable
 The large popular vote that was cast for Franklin Roosevelt two years ago was necessarily Liberal vote
 Certainly gesture fprotest against the immov- able financial pety of the Hoove and the economic stupid y that seemed be increasing thcountry distress hour by hour.
 But that vote essentially instrument for throw ing somebody out rather than instrument for sweeping somebody in This time the American people know what Roosevelt They have watched his work for two years They are sure of the direction in which he is moving
 And they know that he the> most powerful Liberal influence in the whole world.
 The vote on November G. therefore, not vote of protest It was not vote of despair.
 It was of enthusiastic appreciation for man es- sentay Liberal in thought and for policy essentially Lib era in action.

 Certainly this vast public gesture of popular approval should constitute grave warning those fat and pous politicians in other countries who have been sitting still in their obs hoping against hope that the failure public reinstatement of Roosevelt would eventually justify their own ethargy
