PRESIDENT To

IN NRA PLANS
Delay Announced In Statement
Of Program For The Future
Future Course
By III. o. THOMPSON
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, June 3. W.R-
President Roosevelt today felt his
way cautiously toward Qualification
of his NRA policy.
AS he resumed conferences with
congressional and business leaders,
statement promised for today was
postponed. The White House in
dicated it would be probably an
other "a hours before the President
was ready to reveal his next move
in meeting the crisis arising from
invalidation of all codes.
The next White House pro-
nouncement, il was said, will out
line what the administration can
do Immediately within the terms of
the courts decision, pending legis-
lative or other remedial action that
may be attempted later.
Speaker Joseph w. Byrns was the
first White House caller as the
President started a fresh round OF
conferences following a weekend
cruise. Mr.. Roosevelt also arrang-
ed to see the business advisory
council, composed of industrial and
financial leaders who act in an ad-
visory capacity under the COM
merce department.
Sen. William E. Borah CRep) Id
aho, champion of constitutional
government, told a radio audience
that the constitution, while subject
to change through orderly process
es, now bestoWs powers which ARE
equal to all the demands of pow
erful nation in distress if faithful
ly and patiently employed"
Jouett Shouse, president of the
American Liberty League, said in a
statement that "if those now charg-
ed with the responsibility for the
conduct of the affairs of this ma
ton wish TO change Our basic politi-
cal, economic and social organiza-
ton. they should seek to do so by
the honest and above-board method

TOXIC WARNS
CHINA AGAIN

TOXIC, June 3 Wp)-The Japa-
nese foreign office revealed today
that China has been advised that
the demilitarized zone between the
Great Wall and Jehol would be ex-
tended into China proper unless
peace were restored in North China.
Eli Amau, spokesman for the
foreign office, said he understood
japanese military authorities on the
Asiatic continent had informed the
Chinese national government that
an extension might be necessary.
1t would mean pushing japanese
influence across the Great Wall into
the area close to Peiping, ancient
capital of the old Chinese empire,
and. TientSin.
Amau said responsibility in the
matter rested entirely with the
Chinese, whom the japanese have
instructed to put an end to anti
japanese agitation banditry and
purported assassinationS OF persons
friendly to the Nippon empire in
the area.
The KWantung (JapaneSe) army
at present is standing on its arms,
waiting a reply from the Marking
seat of the Chinese government on
the situation.

Calipatria Editor
Prints Editorial
In Literary Style

The Ell Centro Chamber of Com
merce has received copies of a lit
tie brochure entitled, Live Begins
Now" from the pen of j. Wilson
McKenney, editor of the Calipatria
Herald. The article first appeared
in the editorial columns of the
Calipatria Herald and requests for
reprints made it necessary to pub
lish the article in booklet form.
The theme of Life Begins Now
is the Imperial Valley desert and
its scenic and historical attractions.
McKenney carried his readers along
the trails blazed by Father Garces
and Captain Juan Bautista De
ANA, the route of the Mormon ba-
tallion and the Butterfield Stage.
Imperial County's scenic attrac-
tons and landmarks and geological
wonders are touched upon. Those
who have read it say they feel as
did McKenney when he concluded
his article as follows: "As you stand
on the top of old Mount Picacho,
you will wonder why you had call
ed the desert drab and colorlesS
and deadly. AS you rest beside your
campfire in the evening with the
sweet aroma of greasewood smoke
in your nostrils and the gentle
touch of a desert breeze on your
cheek, you will look up into the
diamond-studded sky and thank
Someone up there that at last
you have begun to live"
