Gales heart contracted. If all that
were true and he had known, it might
have saved them both. But it was no
use thinking of that now.
She didn't really care in the first

He looked up and saw Rand stand

him hang up without even goodbye.

New Move Made in
Salary Controversy

In case George Whitlock ever is
found to have been appointed a
deputy of any kind, the Imperial
Irrigation district asks that any
amount declared due him be offset
by what he is alleged to owe the
district, according to an answer to
Whitlock'S petition which was filed
in superior court Tuesday. A de-
murrer to the answer was filed
Tuesday by Whitlock.
The answer to the petition filed
by Whitlock declared that the de-
PENDANTS named by him are en-
ployes of the district acting under
the direction of the district board
and cannot be held responsible for
the back salary Whitlock seeks.
No payments from the payroll ac-
count may be made without the
approval Of the district board.
Defendants in the petition were:
L. w. Allen, R. B. Brissenden. R.
H. Maddux. M. j. Dowd, and F. H.
McIver.

FL Centre shoppers who have had
difficulty in finding a place to park
their automobiles in the downtown

By ID. L. ZINN

Folks friend of mine called up and said tune in
your radio and hear good man, Governor Landon
think Landon is a very good man and awful poor
speaker and he sounds to like he trying the best he
knows how He Just don't seem big enough for his
shoes.
The boys selling him to the public don't know much
about selling in my mind Whenever you have horse
in my business that is green broke or has lot of faults
is is good idea not to him about too much. In
nv mind they should have left the governor in his
Kansas home pointing out he too loyal to Kansas
in the time of drouth and trouble to leave and then
out the country and tell the voters If he was elected
president he would be Just as loyal to the whole

favors in Ethiopia.
Foreign Minister Gaelezzo Ciano
of Italy and Foreign Minister Kon-
stantin Won Neurath of Germany
began their widely depli-
matte conversations today. They
were expected. in addition to dis
cussing the Ethiopian question, to
plan an aggressive campaign
against the spread of Communism
in Europe. Both are alarmed by
Soviet Russia's threat to aid the
Spanish loyalists.
The Italian spokesman appeared
convinced Germany would recog-
nize Ethiopia. His hint about eco-
nonic concessions to Germany
was vague. He said it was jump
ing to conclusions TO say any
country would receive special IA
vors in Ethiopia, but did not pre-
clude the possibility the Reich
might profit from taking the lead
among nations in approving Italy's
conquest.
An important" communique, the
italian spokesman said, will be is
sued at Munich at the end of Ci-
amos visit either Saturday night
or Sunday morning when the min
lister intends to receive the press.

Ira Aten May Be
Private Citizen for
First Time in Years

Ira D. Aten. who has been a di-
rector of the Imperial Irrigation
district since February Z, 1923, may
have been just a private citizen
Tuesday for the first time in 13
years.
If Deputy District Attorney
Charles G.. Halliday was right in
his contention that Aten's resigna-
ton must be filed with the secre-
ary Of state before Imperial county
supervisors may reappoint him -
then Aten was not a director Tues
day.
However, Harry Horton, district
chief counsel, contended the filing
of the resignation with the secre-
tary of state was not necessary. If
he was right-then Aten's record
as a director remains unbroken.

New Year Eve
To CIimox
Season
By FRANCOIS

Now that the night before
Christmas has basked in its share
of glorified publicity, the much
maligned and unthought Of night
after Christmas comes into its
own in big night chubby way.
While Christmas is generally re-
garded as a more sedate and sober
holiday, many casualties utilized
the daylight hours today to nurse
nasty hangovers, but on the whole
the more serious imbibingS will be
done come Thursday night next,
so this columnist is told, and then
watch out!
Getting back to the festivities
tonight, however, there is a gen
eral feeling among the local night
club impressarios that this even
ing will provide swell business as
tired business men take to the
arc-lighted sector and the gay
music Of bright rendezvous to re-
cuperate from the rigors Of family
Santa Claus imperSonations and
the general excitement of the
Yuletide shopping season. So
while the kids stay at home to-
night and try out their new toys,
mothers and fathers will be seen
at any of the following favorite
hideaways.
Before naming tonight's star at
fractions, however, let us remind
you of next weeks outstanding
performance excluding the big
New Year celebrations at all of
the clubs.
It's the Russian Troika's fifth
anniversary celebration on Mon
day night which promises to be a
gala eye opener for the 1887 enter
tainment season. Besides a COM
plete change of floor show in
Guiding new sketches, dances, and
musical numbers. Mrs. Helen Ham
ilton will introduce Zinaida Nico-
lima, brilliant young Russian in
genue, who will sing her popular
repertoire of songs to Washington
music lovers.
Nicolina, born in mid-Russis
and educated in Moscow at the
conservatory there where she
studied piano and voice, escaped
to the Crimea and thence to Con,
stantinople at the outbreak of the
Russian Revolution in 1917. Much
of her escape was in disguise as
the revolutionists were Sparing no
one.

in London under the patronage of
the present Duke of Windsor, the
then Prince Of Wales. At the open
ing Of the Troika five years ago,
she partOOk in the premiere pro-
gram.
La Paree's "era Of good feeling"
is the motto for the gigantic New
Year Eve program next week, but
until then, let us remind you of
the final appearance tonight of
the AlI-WaShingtOn Revue. With
AL SakOW and the band swinging
out in their best holiday style, the
bill tonight promises to put a fine
finishing touch to this weeks gala
festivities. Next week, the Music
Box Revue which will hold over
for the night Of December 81 will
open for what promises to be q
humdinger of q party.
