The suggestion made by former Governor
G. c. Young of the Commonwealth club that
the constitution Of California should be revised
is one well worthy of consideration but whether
or not the time is opportune until this wave
of s1cialistic thought and practice is past and
gone IS moot question The need Of this revi-
sion should be patent to all when it is taken into
consideration that our state constitution is
mass of words, 10000 of them while the federal

Some Republican leaders are willing to admit
that Roosevelt is bit stronger with the country

the margin is SO narrow that they could have
beaten him last December and they further point
out that they hardly have begun their attack.
Every four years the Republican and Demo-

Ell CENTRO NEEDS
A NEW CIVIC BUILDING

Plans are under tCay for neI0 cont
bination city hall and library for FL
Centre. The present public library IS
in temporary, rented quarters. The
cifU hail is in rented quarters. Neither
pIdce is any particular credit to The
citu administration. The neIC bHttd-
ing is badly needed.
El Centro's plans for a combination
city hall and library have met a tenn
porarv rebuff in the scarcity of federal
funds available for such prof. but
there should be no tagging in efforts to
obtain eventual approval and construc-
ton of the proposed civic building. 1t
has been needed for years; the need has
become more acute since the city library
building was condemned as unsafe and
the library staff forced TO abandon It's
use.
For economy, and in view of the po
tential growth of FL Centro, the plan
to combine the city hall and library into
one building seems to offer most utility.
The expense will not be as great as
would that of separate buildings. At
the same time. allowance will be made
for development, at least for many
years to come.
FL Centre is the only city in lmpe-
rial Valley Of any consequence which
has not a city hall worthy Of the name.
Brawley is so far ahead in this respect
that there can be no comparison. Beside
Brawley, FL Centre might be said to
have rented office space for its city hall.
The project for civic building here
is one that should not be allowed to die.

The blockade. so-called, Is not that. The

agreement is voluntary.
That the American Civil Liberties
Union of late unlamented note in Impe-
rial county. is supporting a legal move
in opposition to the Los Angeles pro-
gram. is of significant interest to many
residents OF Imperial county. The civil
liberties union at one time supported
strikers who threatened financial ruin to
a large part Of Imperial county.
Imperial county, like many other
sections of California, has been singu-
larly free of hobos since the bum
blockade went into effect. What it has
saved in the way of trouble from PAN
handlers and hoboes. petty thieves and
other criminals, is inestimable.
It is hard to imagine why translents
should not remain in their own commun-

to make living there than elsewhere.
At any rate, it is to be hoped the hobo

NEW YORK, March 19.-One of
the greatest of the lost manuscript
tragedies took place in 1900. The late
Frank Norris was than reader for
a publishing house. The manuscript
of novl came in from an unknown.
Norris recommended it with enthu-
siasm. So did the other readers.
Norris was instructed to tell the
author, him or her, that the work
was accepted and the firm was look
ing forward to its publication. On
his desk at IL Union Square, Norris
had two piles of manuscripts, those
rejected and those accepted. Then
occurred one of those unaccount-
able blunders.
The novel by the unknown writer
was placed on the rejected pile and
back it went. Too late, Norris dis
covered the mistake. A stenographer
had automatically returned it. There
was no record-no cluei Norris de
clared it to be one of the two finest
novels he ever read.
The other was Dreiser's Sister
Carrie" His enthusiasm for Sister
Carrie" caused it to be accepted. The
missing manuscript was never heard
! from although every effort was made
for its retrieyal So far as is known
it was never published. Norris used
the episode for one of his short
stories later.
