Business Uptrend Reflected in Spirit
Greeting Pretentious Program

Acting Mayor Roy Womack today proclaimed satur-
day holiday in honor of Ell Centro Seventh Annual Fall
Festival, for which plans nearing completion with
the framework of program and entertainment set up
provide for many hundreds of visitors.
The mayors proclamation follows:
To All Imperial Valley Residents,
Greetings,
Saturday morning, October 49, Ell Centre swings into
it's Seventh Annual Fall Opening festival For the seventh
Imperial Valley press., 1935-10-17

Time Imperial valley residents Will
assemble in Ell Centro to celebrate
a day of carnival and fun in honor
of the official opening of the fall
season.
The Ell Centro chamber of COM
merce with the close cooperation of
Ell Centro merchants has carefully
prepared an extensive program in
keeping with the celebration. Ev-
erything has been done to make
this day a successful one, in keep
ing with the progressive spirit of
Imperial Valley and worthy of the
effort expended by it's residents.
Reports from the United States
chamber of commerce show that
business is definitely on the un-
swing. Farm products, on which
this valley largely depends, have
shown nine per cent increase in
value over last year.
Therefore, I believe that this
years Fall Opening festival will be
bigger, better, and more successful
in every way than ever before.
Therefore, I proclaim Saturday,
October 19 a holiday and extend
the invitation of all participants in
the Fall Opening festival to the
people of Imperial Valley to attend
this event, to amuse themselves, to
celebrate the beginning of fall, and
to go home convinced that Imper-
ial Valley progress for the coming
year will move forward more sure
ly than ever before.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-Despite
the prolonged harangues of Senator
Huey P. Long and the numerous
bills for putting postmasters on civil
service, Postmaster General James
A. Farley's department seems to be
going straight"
Evidence of this was disclosed to-
day in a letter sent by w. w. Howes,
Assistant Postmaster General, to
Senators Frederick VanNuys and
Sherman MInton. 1t states that Or
vile Nethercutt, Democrat post
master at L5gansport, is to be re-
moved by the department.
Reason given:
Gan inspection of that office dis
closed numerous irregularities and
also that the postmaster has been
unduly active in political affairs"
1t further suggests that William
A. STARTS, Republican, and assistant
postmaster 1T Logansport, be made
acting postmaster until civil service
examinations can be held and a
Democratic successor to Mr.. Neither
cult be appointed.

They want to know what Presi-
dent Roosevelt proposes to do with
the other $4,000 100000 which would
be appropriated in the S4.000,000,0O0

That is the behind-t he-scenes
reason for the movement to have
the bill sent back to the Senate

ration into two parts relating re-
spectively to direct relief and work
relief.
PWA Administrator Harold Ickes,
with the $4,000, 100000 work relief

This 58-year-old native Of Iowa
is something of man of mystery
TO most New Dealers concerned
with the four billion works pro-
gram. ANY criticisms Of his quail
fications that they may entertain
are being tactfully withheld until
his exact status IS made known.
Lewis Douglas, former budget
director. was one of the first to rec
ognize the admiraIs ability to drive
a sharp bargain. He recommended
him to Secretary Morgenthau. The
young Treasury chief, in turn, be-
gan to sing Peoples praises, and
aided in combining all material
buying and constructiOn-spending
activities of the Treasury under his
direction.
Admiral Peoples replaced L. w.
Chip Robert, dapper Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury, on the
Presidents special Board for Public

Observers credit President Roose-
welt with smart strategy in sending
Peoples to Capitol Hill on the four
billion dollar resolution. Had he
dispatched Harold Ickes or Harry
Hopkins, the resulting fireworks
might have seriously delayed the
Presidents program.

not well enough known to be open

McAulifre congratulated the sisters on the success of their work in the United States, emphasizing the fact that their labors have been most effective for Gods glary and the salvation of souls in the educa- ton of youth, the care of the sick, and other charitable works con- fided to their care.
 The previous day was profession and reception day. At early mass IS novices reewed their annual vows. At 9 o'clock Most Rev. Mau- rice F. McAuliffe celebrated mass during which nine novices made their first vows. Afteh mass the bishop gave the habit of the Sisters of St. Joseph to two candidates for the religious life. He then presided at the final profession of four now ices, and presented each of them with a crucif1x, the symbol of their conservation. The ceremony coclud- ed, the bishop delivered an inspir- ing sermon, taking for his text the words: Many hath chosen the bet ter part, which shall not be taken from her"

MT. CreeL announces tnat Lne Ieuel The plan for this balancing has been worked out, at the presidents dictation, by treasury experts, and is as definite as precise figures can make 1t:
 For the present year, end.
 ing July i, iOS0, receipts will
 bc 3OO2 million dollars and
 the deficit 3S92 million. For
 next year, ending July 1, 1887
 receipts will be A200 million,
 with q deficit of 2OOO million.
 For the following year tend.
 ing July i, 1e3S) receipts will
 be 5000 million and deficits
 500 million. In 1889, tho
 deficit will be wiped out and
 there will be surplus of 500
 million.
 Says MT. Creel: "The president holds that the best and quickest way to balance the national bud get Is to balance the budget or the American citizen. Even so. receipts and expenditures are be- ing given careful consideration, and the treasury experts already see the day when the budget can and will be balanced--and that without ignoring an essential gov ernment duty or human obliga- ton.
 Near Debt Limit
 "The United states has not neared it's debt limit, and another fact stressed by, the president IS that the cost of the debt struc- ture Is being steadily reduced. TWO years ago a little over 1 per cent, its cost is already down to nearly 3 per cent.
 Some of the other important subjects on which Mir. Creel, speaking with authority, under. takes to interpret the present presidential policies are:
 AMENDING THE CONsTlTU. TION; Ut Is the presidents deep conviction that the constitution was never meant to be a Dead Hand, chilling human Aspiration and blocking humanity's advance, but that the founding fathers con. ceived 1t as 6 living force for the expression of the national VIII with respect to national needs. Relieving that the vast and be- wiidering changes in American life compel new objectives in human relations, the laws he has pro- posed are frank attempts o gain thoee objectives, and he will keep up the drive. In the next few months, the supreme court VIII hand down fresh pronouncements.. If the constitution Is construed technically, the president will nave m other alternative than to so to
