AGREEMENT
REACHED ON
WAGE SCALE

Following a conference this NOR
ming of a committee from the coun-
ty grand jury with w. j. Sterrett.
county SERA director, an agree
ment on wage scales was reached
and it was determined to try out
present arrangements for time
with other plans to be made later
should the present agreement fail
to function.
The principal difficulty which has
agitated the minds of growers
needing harvest workers is the fact
that SERA pays 45 cents per hour
for labor, a scale which the ranch
ers are unable to meet. 1t was point
ed out this morning that the SERA
wage is on budget plan with but
80 hours each week allowed for
the work. This would not prevent
workers accepting the other labor
should all circumstances be equal.
SERA feels that If its workers
are given a fair price for their work
in the fields there will be no trouble
and the workers will be supplied
when needed, Sterrett said.
Workers on the SERA rolls have
been registering at the local office
of the national Unemployment SER
vice and ranchers desiring these
men must send their request for
workers to this office as the assign
ing of these men for the harvest
fields will be taken care Of in that
manner. A wage scale of 80 cents
per hour for this work has been
agreed upon.
H. M. Coverly of the farm debt
adjustment committee, was present
at this mornings meeting and ex-
pressed the opinion that the present
plan viii work out satisfactorily If
given a chance.

ENUMERATORS
SEtECTEDFOR
FARM CENSUS

Fourteen enumerators to take the
agricultural census in Imperial
county were appointed this after
noon by L. H. Hoskins, San Ber-
nardino, census supervisor for this
district. Two additional persons
will be appointed later today to
complete the total of 16 needed for
the work in this county.
Hoskins met with applicants at l
o'clock this afternoon in the base
ment of the post office building
and explained the census taking
operations to them in great detail.
He stated that the main purpose of
the work is to establish basic facts
relative to the agricultural situa-
tion in the United States.
He emphasized most clearly that
all information obtained by the
enumerators is to be kept in strick
confidence and is not to be di-
vulged to any person under pain of
strict penalties laid down by the
government. 1t was further stated
that this census is not being taken
for taxation purposes but simply
to aid congress when considering
problems relating to the agricultur-
lists of the country by making avail
able exact and informative data on
which the federal legislators can
base their future actions.
Those appointed this afternoon
were: John Bezdecheck, Calipatria;
Elmer Ryan, Imperial; o. A. Fitz-
gerald, Brawley; Barney Leblanc,
Ell Centre; Eugene Moore, El Gen.

ARIZONA GOLD
RUSH FLOPS

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 10. U.P-
Arizona settled back into its ma
tural stages today as the "gold
strike' of Charlie Williams, dis
abled war veteran and amateur
pfospector, passed into its final
chapter.
While deputy sheriff's were con-
tinuing their investigation into the
mystery surrounding the stories of
Williams, reported missing for IS
hours, and his return from the
depths of Superstition mountain
with IL "nuggets" the gold was
turned over to the government.
Jacob Morgan, attorney for Will
liams, told police today he had
handed over the gold, said to have
been discovered in a fabulously
rich caNS in the mountains by Will
liams, to government agents. He
would not elaborate on the story.
williams created somewhat of
gold rush into Superstition as well
as causing q short lived gold rush
into the place that has claimed the
lives of nine prospectors in recent
years.

ASK GUT IN
RATE ON HAY

At the instance of the Ell Cen
tro Chamber of Commerce, kilograms
have been sent by the Imperial
County Farm Bureau, the Associat-
ed Chambers of Commerce of I'M
perial County, Imperial Valley Hay
Growers Association, City of El
Centre, and A. Y. Preble, chairman
of the board of supervisors of I'M
perial county, petitioning the inter-
state commerce commission to re-
store the emergency rate on hay
from Imperial Valley to drought
stricken areas of Texas and the
middle west to one-half of the reg
ular rates instead of the two-thirds
rate which now prevails. This is
for the purpose of supplying those
two areas with needed hay and of
clearing Imperial Valley of its pres
ent stock of hay in advance of the
new seasons hay.
"We feel,' said President w. H.
Tyler, Jr., of the El Centro Cham
ber of Commerce, "the necessity of
selling the current stock of hay
before the new crop comes in. Nor
mally, this hay would easily have
been absorbed by the Los Angeles
Milk Shed, but the copious rains of
the fall months has brought forth a
great deal of green feed on the hill
sides of Los Angeles, which is now
being fed by the dairymen partly
in lieu of hay. We have asked 9TH
er organizations, said Tyler, "to
join with us in petitioning the in
terstate commerce commission to
grant these lower railroad rates,
feeling sure that the railroad COM
panies will willingly concur, and
we have also contacted by wire,
Senator johnson, Congressman
Burnham and Phil d. Swing in
Washington, and Secretary of Ag-
riculture Wallace, asking them to
use their good offices with the in
terstate commerce commission to
the end that this reduction may be
restored -

LONG BREAKS
ALLEGIANCE
TOPRES|DENT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. WR)-
Sen. Huey P. Long (Dem) Louisi-
ana, definitely severed his allegi-
ance to the Roosevelt administra-
ton today and appealed for nation
wide support of his "share our
wealth" plan.
He lashed the administration IS
recovery program and made a Wit
riolic attack upon the President in
a fiery nationwide address last
night. He followed it with the an
nouncement he would have none
of the administration IS present
policies.
The Louisiana "kingfish, " fresh
from new political conquestS in his
home state, offered plan which
he said would make "every man
king' in 60 days, spread the
wealth and make 100000 new mil
lionaires.
To accomplish this he offered as
his seven point program:
/. A capital levy tax on all
wealth above $1.O00,000 up to 81 per
cent on the eighth million dollars
and 100 per cent on all over that
Q. Proposal to limit the amount
any one can earn in one year or
inherit to $1,000,0O0.
3. Throw into the treasury money
and property of wealthy to be re-
distributed to provide every family
a home and comforts of home, in
cluding radio and automobile.
. 4. Guarantee food and clothing
and employment for everyone who
should work by shortening the
hours of labor, to 30 hours per
week, maybe less, and to II months
per year, maybe less.
5. Extend "LouiSiana plan' to
all the people to provide college
education for every child.
6. Pension all persons above so
years of age, excepting those who
earn $1,000 per year or who are
worth $4,000.
7. Until "we could straighten
things out (and we can straighten
things out in two months under
our program), we would grant a
moratorium on all debts which peo-
pie owe that they cannot pay

More important than this I, the fact

LAWYER CHALLENGES CUMMINGS
STATEMENT UPON GOLD CLAUSE
Denies Assertion That Congress Is Impeded In It's
Power To Regulate Currency By
Existing Yardstick

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. WD -
Attorney General Homer S. Cum
ming's contention that chaos would
follow an adverse decision in the
gold clause cases was challenged in
supreme court today by Edward w.
Bourne, counsel for trustees of one
of the bond issues involved.
Bourne said that he could see no
reason why determination that
these obligations be paid at the rate
of $l.69 to the dollar should affect
the monetary policy.
ut will mean nothing but that
these obligations shall be paid in
more of given unit than other
wise" he said.
Bourne challenged the conten
ton that he gold clause impeded
congress in is power to regulate the
currency. The gold clauses were en-
ployed, he said, because of the gold
standard act of 1900 which specifi-
cally set up yardstick for the
measurement of currency.
THAT being so," he said. these
contracts came into being with that
standard of value. Congress meant
to say then that if that yardstick
entered into contracts, those con-
tracts would be binding"

court has held that persons may

letter Vallejo said: "I have with
in the last few Gays received two
communications-one from head
quarters in Sacramento and one
from Chief Cato-calling my atten-
ton to the deplorable condition
covering headlights in your county
and it is his desire that a more
strict enforcement of these viola
tions become effective at once"
Figures covering activities in

ther "have been quoted to me for
the 10 months ending November /,

arrest being made for these viola
tionS.''
Oswalt stated that the state laws
refer to all lights on all types of
motor vehicles, headlights, clear
ance light, tail lights and others
specified under the terms of the
law. Motorists who operate their
motor vehicles with faulty lights
may expect to be given tickets for

TRICK NAbS
AUTO THIEF

NEW YORK, Jan. 10. U.D-De-
partment of justice men arrested
Robert Kilmartin, 38, in New
York cafeteria, on a charge of
transporting stolen automobiles, be-
cause of an ingenious fingerprint-
ing trick.
Several days ago Frank Fay, chief
of the New York bureau of the de-
partment of justice, received a tip
that a man resembling Kilmartin
ate regularly in the restaurant. He
is wanted in San Francisco.
Search of the files yielded only a
4-year-old photograph and a set of
finger prints. Posing as bus boys,
Fay and fingerprint expert sta
toned themselves by the water spi-
got in the cafeteria. AS each patron
who resembled Kilmartin entered,
they gave him a glass of water.
Then they examined the glass af-
ter the customer had held it in his
right hand.
On the twentieth glass a print
showed that was identical with
those of the police records.

GAS TAX FUND

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 10. W.P -
Organizations opposed to diversion
of the gasoline tax to purposes other
than highway construction organ
lied today to combat an expected
legislative attempt to tap the gas
tax for part Of the revenue needed
to meet expenses of state govern
ment.
Delegates from the Redwood EN-
pire association led the movement
to form a permanent organization
called the California highway le-
gislative committee which will serve
as a central agency to fight at
temptS at diversion.
M. o. Goldman, president of the
association, was elected chairman of
the committee. Every organization
opposing diversion will be invited to
be represented in the group.
The state division of highways re-
ceives approximately $4,000, 900 an
nually from gasoline taxes for use
on highway construction and MAIN
tenance work For the past two
years there has been considerable
agitation TO use some of that in
come for general fund purposes.
Bills proposing diversion are ex-
pected to be presented to the legis-
lature.
Senators and assemblymen from
the Redwood Empire pledged them
selves to oppose any such legisla-
ton, and to sponsor bills proposing
the addition of certain county
roads. and particularly the Muir
Wood toll road, to the state high
way system.

'JAFSIE' STORY STANDS
Defense Unable To Shake Tale
Told By Star Witness In Any
Major Degree.

FLEMINGTON, N. j., Jan. 10.
W,D-The state of New Jersey to-
day concluded the most sensation
al chapters OF it's case against Bru-
no Richard Hauptmann, charged
with the murder of Charles A. Lind
bergh, Jr.
At court adjournment tonight,
the Bronx carpenter walked out
linked to the kidnapping, the mur-
der and the ransom money, by a
succession of witnesses who with
stood terrific assaults upon their
testimony without recanting in
any essential particular.
DR.. John F.. Condor, the inter-
nationally famed "Jafsie" who was
the states key witness, sat smiling
and happy, in front of the rail, re-
lieved and satisfied" after a two
day ordeal.

story and that 1 did my duty he
declared.
The doctor, who had been startled
by the introduction of a woman in

Hauptmann's counsel intiinated
they would place in evidence two
letters Jafsie gave her after the
kidnapping, also said he was afraid
of no women"
He intimated that the mysterious
letters the defense threatens to pro-

With machine-like precision, the
state proceeded, after the star char
acter disappeared from the spot
light, to place succession of cor
froborative witnesses on the stand,
and, at the end of the session it
was beginning to present handwrit-
ing which, it claims, will tie Haupt-
mann up with the ransom notes.
The most forceful witness of the
afternoon, when Jafsie had stepped
down from the ancient witness chair
was Col. Henry c. Breckenridge, for

friend and legal adviser of Col.
Lindbergh.
