POLICE CHECK
SUSPECT HELD

A thorough checkup and investi-

day of Neil H. Britton, Los Ange-

time" chain letter racketeer, ac-
cording to the entry made in the
police log.
Britton was arrested here short
ly after midnight this morning by
officer Ackley of the local depart
ment and Bill Tackett, state high
way patrolman. His arrest followed
a controversy between the suspect
and a male companion during
which the latter Is said to have
slapped Britton's face. The ruckus
brought officers to the scene.
At headquarters Britton is al
legged to have stated that he came
from San Diego yesterday with the
intention of opening a chain-let
ter brokerage office here. The other
people with him were allegedly
hired by him in Los Angeles on
promises of $40 a day to help in
the scheme. 1t was an argument
over the paying of this $40 which
led to the quarrel and arrest, po-
lice were told.

ARIZONA VETS
SEEK RECALL
OF SENATORS

PHOENIX. Ariz.. May % (UH =
Recall petitions against Carl Hay
den, junior u. S. senator from
Arizona were in circulation here and
in other parts of the state today
even before his vote on sustaining
the Presidents veto of the Patman
bonus bill was known officially.
The move had the active support,
il was claimed, of majority Of
Arizona veterans organizations.
Senator Hayden has announced
publicly he would support Mr..
Roosevelt regardless of pressure
brought to bear by his constituents.
Approximately 10000 signatures
are required to force a special elec-
ton. A spokesman for local chap
ter of the veterans of Foreign wars
said more than 10000 persons al
ready have signed. He also stated
that similar petitions against
Senator Henry F. Ashurst would be
circulated after the first of July.
Sentiment appeared stronger
against Ashurst than Hayden, but
by law recall proceedings cannot be
started until six months after the
start of a senators term. During
his last campaign AShurst pledged
his support to a soldiers bonus.

CHIEF
NOT WORRIED
BY CRITICISM

LOS ANGELES, May % U,P)-- E.
Raymond Cato, chief of the state
highway patrol, displayed no con-
Germ today over the criticism of
Santa Ana justice of the peace for
the formers issuance of courtesy
cards" to motorists.
Justice Kenneth Morrison rebuked
Cato when he sentenced James
Arnold, collector for Baron Long,
Southern California sportsman, to
a five-day Jail term for speeding.
Arnold's courtesy card" was con-
iiScated by the justice.
These courtesy cards are just
that and nothing more" Cato said.
"They are intended solely as means
of identification and do not offer
any protection or immunity to the
holders.
"If a holder of one of my courtesy
cards breaks the law, he is just as
liable as any other person and 1
certainly shall make no move in the
Arnold case.
Justice Morrison's protest cannot
bring out any facts other than
these"

IN PLAN FOR
Rk-REL|EF

WASHINGTON, May %. UP)-A
shift in the work-relief program to-
day directed the new deal" re-
employment drive toward small,
local projects designed to create
jobs as cheaply as possible.
The change in plans probably will
see President Roosevelt five or six
weeks behind schedule in his cam
paign to give direct employment TO
3,500,000 heads of needy families
and end dole relief by July l, 1886.
Plans for speeding up expenditure
Of the $4,000,000,000 fund were eX-
pected to be discussed at a White
House conference today between
the President and his 23-man ad-
visory allotment committee.
Concentration for the present on
projects where costs of material
will not be heavy was made neceS-
sary, administration officials said,
because they have an average of
only $1,100 to use in employing
each man. From 25 to so per cent
of the announced program will re-
quire from $1,000 to $500 for each
person employed.
State directors of the drive were
instructed ~ Harry l.. Hopkins,
works progress administrator, to
make an inventory of jobs the re-
lief workers might do with min
imum outlay for materials.

PLANNING NEW
BONUS MARCH
FOR VETERANS
Commander Of Expedition In
1888 Issues Call Today For
New Trek To Washington

LOS ANGELES, May %. U.P)-
A call to marshal World war vet
Grams into a new march on Wash
ington was issued today by r. w.
Robertson, a leader of the 1882
bonus march, Immediately after
word was received that the senate
sustained President RooSevelt's veto
of the Patman bill.
Robertson ordered all veterans to
report at a certain vacant lot to-
morrow.
At that time, he said, plans will
be completed to proceed to Sacra-
mento, mobilization point of all
California veterans who will join
the march.
He said in anticipation of a
Presidential veto organization lead
ers had been chasing up and down
the Pacific coast for weeks to plan
the second bonus march"
He estimated more than 1000
veterans would join from California
alone.
There will be no women Oh
children this time" Robertson said
I'VE mean business"
A complete set of plans for the
march was outlined. The march
would be made in automobile. The
caravan would pay its way" across
country by exhibiting talking mo-
ton pictures of the last bonus
march. Admissions, under the plan
would be collected in the form o.
food.
Right now,' he said, Il want tt
warn the public that we do no
want donations of any articles tina
might be sold. And Furthermore
we want to caution the public a
large against buying any article!
from war veterans who represent
themselves as. selling to aid the
bonus marcherS."
Robertson said local pledges fol
the projected march were the same
who participated in the last trek
which he organized in this sector.

Chamber Hears
Mrs. Wheeler
And DR.. LeWis

Two interesting speakers address,
ed Ell Centro Chamber Of Commerce
directors, members and their friends
at yesterdays luncheon meeting
when Mrs. Eva C. Wheeler, for II
years state president of the w. C.
T. u, and Dr. o. Lewis, of Long
Beach, addressed the gathering.
Mrs. Wheeler, one of the out
standing women in public life in
California, told of legislation pend
ing in Sacramento, and her various
contacts with officials, and legislat-
ors at the capital. She told of
much legislation pending of inter
est to Imperial Valley citizens, and
frequently alluded to Senator Ben
HulSe and ASsemblyman Clarence
Walker, representing Imperial coun-
ty, and their activities in Sacra-
mento. Mrs. Wheeler impressed
her audience by her splendid grasp
upon matters pending at the capt.
tai, and her thorough familiarity
with the many measures now be-
fore the Legislature.
DR.. Lewis talked of the Townsend
Revolving Old Age Pension plan
and the benefits to accrue to the
country if effectuated. He said
that the cost of the plan is much
below the commonly accepted esti
mates, and that the measure
promises an immediate recovery
from the economic depression which
has prevailed for the past several
years. Numerous members of the
Townsend organization, including
S. L. McCrory, Imperial county
president, we're in attendance. A
large number of Ell Centro women
were also present, to hear Dr.. Lewis
and Mrs. Wheeler.
Chairman George Bennitt intro
duced a number of distinguished
guests and visitors who were at the
meeting. He also presented to cham
ber of commerce members John
Brunner and w. H. Rhodes, newly
elected directors of the chamber.
