ORGANIZATION
Of BOYS BAND
PLANNED HERE

Organization of a boys band here
is receiving much consideration
from civic and fraternal organiza-
tions which hope in the near fu-
ture to form band which will be
as efficient and as much credit to
the community as similar bands are
in countless other cities.
N. Novak, local music dealer
with 16 years of service in army
bands, four of which were spent as
leader of one of the crack organ
izations, and who has high rating as
an organizer and instructor, has
offered his services to organize a
boys band here.
He has made known certain con-
ditions under which he would un-
dertake the job OF organizing and
drilling a boys band, to work up a
well organization with full
Instrumentation, drum major and
other officers. RehearSals would
be held twice week with strict at
tendance for the full band required,
and extra instruction to be given
on other days to boys who may need
it. in order to develop the band as
rapidly as possible. Instruction
would also include military drill,
featuring marching and appearance.
Enrolment is now open to boys
from IL to 20 years, who already
can play to some extent on band
instruments and who are willing -
learn, observe rules and cooperate
with strict discipline. Fifteen boys
have already been accepted.
Candidates must have good grades
in school, be members of some
Sunday school class and have good
regulations.
Novak and others who are inter-
ested with him in the project, hope
to develop band that will be a
credit to the community and which
will be available for programs at the
San Diego fair this summer and
for local occasions when services of
a band are required.

F|REMEN WANT
No FIRES FOR
FRIDAY NIGHT

Persons expecting to have fires
on their property are asked by Chief
Reams to have them tomorrow or
wait until after Friday, in order
that nothing may interfere with
the Patriotic Parade" which will
be staged by the Ell Centro fire de-
partment on Friday night in Vet
erans Memorial hall.
"We will have as ample force of
men on duty during the ball to
protect the city," Chief Reams said.
"but we certainly hope there will
be no fires Friday night as the
boys will be in their dress uniforms
and it would be just too bad to ruin
them at fire.
Generally we have been pretty
lucky on the night of Our annual
ball, though several years ago a
man somewhat demented chose that
night to send in series of false
alarms and had all the firemen
running around in circles. That
night we had to neglect our guests
and let them conduct their own
party"
The "Patriotic Parade will be
the Goth annual ball given by the
fire department, each OF his prede-
cessors being an excellent success
in every way. The committee in
charge of this years ball plans to
keep up the high standard.
In addition to splendid music and
good entertainment, the firemen
will serve a barbecue dinner, in
cluded in the cost of the ticket,

New York Stocks

NEW YORK, Feb. 20. Wp-Stocks
declined / to more than points
today under the lead of railroad
and utility shares.
The widest losses were made af-
ter President Roosevelt had deliv-
cred his National Industrial Re-
covery Act message asking NRA
extension for two years. Utilities
with their fixed income are con-
sidered the heaviest sufferers un-
der the NRA. The Dow-Jones
utility average broke to a record
low.
Railroad companies also have
fixed income. and while they have
not yet come under code. they
suffer through any increased costs
such as wage advances and higher
prices for materials. Prices de-
clined TO more than 2 points and
the railroad average came within
point of its low since 1888.
Selling spread to industrial is
sues where steels. motors, amuse-
ments, farm implement shares, to-
baccos and special issues declined.
United States Steel was de-
pressed at 35A, off IL, and other
steels lost fractions to a point
American Can, Allied Chemical,
Chrysler, General Motors, Inter-
national Harvester, Case, Loew's
u. S. Steels and Du Pont were off
fractions to nearly points.

"Small enterprises especially
should be given added protection
against discrimination and oppres-
Sion.''
Mr.. Roosevelt said he was not
supplying congress with any specific
draft of a suggested law but that
recommendation would be provided
by the various departments and
agencies concerned.
"In the development OF this legis-
lation," he said, 81 call your at
tention to the obvious fact that the
way to enforce laws, codes and
regulations relating TO industrial
practices is not to seek TO put people
in jail.
1--WE need other aid more effect
i've means for the immediate stop
ping of practices by any individual
or by any corporation which are
contrary to these principles. -
Mr.. Roosevelt did not specify
what those means might be-
The President called for simplifi-
cation of the elaborate NRA proceed
ure and for coordination of the vast
code structure.
Lists Gains Made
I'VE must rightly move to correct
some things done or left undone,
he said. I'VE must work out the CO.
ordination of every code with every
other code. We must simplify pro-
cedure. We must check and clarity
such provisions in the various codes
as are puzzling to those operating
/ under them"
He asked for more definite re-
! sponsibility for administration and
enforcement Of codes and admitted
freely that errors had been made
in the hasty setting up of the NRA
/ machinery.
The President listed great gains
as having been made under the
NRA and hit at "carping critics and
those who seek either political ad-
vantage or the right again to in
dulge in unfair practices or exploit
alton of labor or consumers"
From these sources, he indicated
had issued much of the criticism
against the NRA.
He credited NRA with giving en-
ployment to S4,000,000 workers, ELI
minating child labor, outla>ine
sweatshops, releasing millions o.
workers" from starvation wages anc
excessive hours, and advancing the
cause of collective bargaining.
Under it, he said, "the patterr
OF new order of industrial rela:-
tions is definitely taking shape. In
dustry as whole has also mad,
great gains"
1T is reasonable to state" Mr.
Roosevelt said, that with certain
inevitable exceptions in the case o
individual products there has beer

ces than in any similar period o

kets."
