City Clerk Gives
Facts Pertaining
To Official Bond

The City Clerk Of sixth class city,
under which classification the City
of Ell Centro comes, is not the fin
ancial officer of the city. Tho fin
ancial officer of the city is tho City
Treasurer, who is charged with the
custody of all city funds: conse-
quently the bond of the City Clerk,
which is set by an ordinance in the
amount of $500000. is not as great
as the bond of the Treasurer. which
is also set by city ordinance. Both
officers are required TO furnish a
good and sufficient bond that must
be passed upon by the City Attorney
and the City Council. and in the
event that any officer who is re-
quired by ordinance to furnish
bond, is unable to do SO, the City
Council must, at the expiration of
ten days time, declare the office
vacant and appoint a successor.
The accounts of the City Clerk
and the City Treasurer arc recon-
ciled to each other at the end of
each month and general statement
of the city's affairs and financial
condition is compiled by the City
Clerks office and submitted TO the
City Council at the end of each
thirty days.
All city officers whose duties re-
quire that they furnish a bond arc
required TO file their official bond
with the City Clerk with the cx-
ception of the City Clerk, whose
bond is filed with the Mayor. The
files in the City Clerks office con-
tain the official bonds of all city
officers who, by ordinance, arc re-
quired to furnish bonds, and these
bonds have all been paSsd upon
and approved by the City Attorney
and the City Council.
There is no reason why the bonds
of all the city officers will not be
continued in force or rewritten. as
the case may be. Personally / have
the written assurance of the Mary
land Casualty Company, the original
writer's of my official bond when
elected two years ago, that in event
Of reelection they will re-write my
bond for the ensuing term of office
l can therefore assure the people
of El Centre that if they return me
to office I can qualify in every re-
spect as to experience, ability and
legal requirements.

economic city government-the one
thing upon which all voters are
agreed. If Eyer can overcome the
handicap of personal acquaint-

other candidates, his position as

advantage, observers said.

leave his fate to the voters, with

elected him in the past.
Scriyen and Jefferson found
political strength in strong records

personal popularity and leadership
in civic movements, where he is
one of the city'S most active in

So different is the campaign

FRANCE APPEARS READY
TO LIFT THE SANCTIONS

PARIS, May %. (UP).-Politi-
cal circles believed last night that
one of the first official acts of the
new French foreign minister, so
far unnamed, who will take office
with the Red Front government
on June 2, will be to move for
immediate abolition Of sanctions
against Italy.
France is expected to obtain
this end through the League of
Nations if possible, but as a last
resort she may withdraw from the
sanctionist front alone, for these
reasons:
l. Sanctions are now widely
considered useless and punitive,
whereas they were designed to
halt Italian conquest of Eth
opia, which is now an accomplish
ed fact.
2. France fears that Mussolini
will quit the league and the
Stresa Front britain. France and
italy, if sanctions are continued.
8. French trade is seriously I'M
paired as result of the anti-Italian
economic curb.
Leon Blum, Popular Front die
tator of France and premicr-des-
ignate, is finding the foreign min
istry the most difficult portfolio
to fill.
