There is degree Of interest in
the fact that the Michigan Wolver-

features its opening theme
Ministerial Ethics
Crucial observation would make
II apparent that the theme IL not

ino the theological course. Thus a
subject anticeding the definite en-

paratory information. However.
one should not be hear to complain
II there is a reverting to some OF
the last subjects had In college.
On the other hand. am in cer-
tain degrees suspicious of the ad-
vantage or fruitfulness of empha-

ethics.
1t Is apparent to me therefore.
that the theme might have been
more appropriately stated thus:

STATEMENT ISSUED BY HORTON ON
IRRIGATION DISTRICT ELECTION
Attorney Declares Method Followed Was Only Prac-
tical And Efficient One In
View OF "Star Votes"

decided by six deeds small, practi-
cally worthless parcels of land to
some $500 purported grantees. These
names were by the assessors placed
upon the district assessment roll.
Such an attempt to circumvent the
property qualification is palpably
fraud.
"The constitutionality of the
property qualification was challeng-
ed. The fraudulent deeds may be-
come the object of litigation to de-
termine their validity. To avoid
the necessity of having to hold a
second election at additional ex-
pense to the district, it was decided
to cast a special ballot so that their
voice in the election, if the courts
held that they had any right to
vote, could be determined. They
did cast a special ballot, which has
been preserved, and if the court de-
termines that they should be count
ed, the court can so declare, and by
that simple process the matter set
tied.
"The voting and canvassing was
conducted upon the theory that
the purported grantees on these
fraudulent deeds are not entitled
to vote or influence the election.
The courts can now settle the ques-
ton once and for all without con-
fusion, expense of election, or loss
of time.
eff the questionable grantees had
not been permitted to cast ballot
or If, being permitted, their ballot
was in no wise distinguishable from
those admittedly qualified to vote,
the influence of the ballots of those
represented by the questionable
deeds could not have been told, and
if the court held in the future that
they had a right to vote, then no
alternative would have been left ex-
cept the expense of second elec-
ton to the district, and delays
which would have handicapped the
district in its future operations.
This situation has been avoided by
the method under which the cleo
ton was held and the canvass
made.'

DEMAND THEIR

Union Affiliated With American

Action Taken Late This After

Two Weeks Ago

Imperial> Valley lettuce workers,

table Workers Union of California,
affiliated with the American Fed
Grafton of Labor we're called out ON
strike this afternoon, according to
information received here, following
asserted failure Of the Hef-onS Re-
quest for recognition by the growers
and shippers.
Union leaders reported that ap-
proximately LOO men and women
were scheduled to answer the call
for walkout in a final effort to
force recognition of their organiza-
ton.
Members of the union include all
shed workers, trimmers, packers and
other floor help.
Final decision of the strike COM
mite was made today. The ac-
ton was taken pursuant to meet
ing of the union held at Brawley
February 2, at which time the ques-
ton of securing recognition of the
union was discussed, and a COM
mittee was named to attempt fur
ther negotiations with power to call
a strike if attempts were unsuccess-
full
I'VE nave peen blocked in every
attempt to secure fair hearing of
our demands" union officials said
today. 1--WE have tried to settle the
dispute peaceably through confer
ence with employers, but this has
been denied us.
1--WE are asking only for the same
wages and conditions which prevail
in other parts of the state and In
Arizona. The matter was arbitrated
by the regional labor board last fall,
under similar circumstances, and
we feel, therefore, that we are ask
ing only those considerations to
which we are lawfully entitled by
the award of the arbitration COM
mittee."
Most important of changes sought,
according to strike leaders, is the
elimination of the split bench:
This is the term applied to rr1o4.
sheds wherein portion of the
workers are paid by piece work and
the remainder on an hourly basis.
This condition is the cause of much
dissension, it was said.
THE strike will be conducted in
a strictly lawful manner, as far as
the Fruit and Vegetable Workers
union is concerned" declared the
committee. land our sincere wish is
that it may be speedily settled to
the satisfaction of both parties con-
cerned."

State Costs Viii
= Mount But Little

LOS ANGELES, Feb. IL. UP
The state government during the
next two years will cost little more
than it did during the l933-35 BIZ
ennium, A. E. Stockburger, state
finance director, today declared.
"Under Governor Merriam's new
budget there are no plans to expand
any activities" he said. "The gov
ernment will be held within the
limits 1t has been restricted to dur
ing the past few years.
Stockburger said the present bud
get of $347 100000 is $2,000,000 more
than the last budget but fixed
charges were increased. He pointed
ont that subventions to counties
and cities will total $l93,000,000.
Only % per cent of the budget is
comfortable by state officials, he
said, and that position was reduced
26 per cent in the new budget.
