ANOTHER BOOST
FOR IMPERIAL VALLEY

The Amateur Softball Association of
America has recognized the Imperial
Valley All Star team as champions of
southern California, entitled to compete
IN the coming national championship
tournament at Chicago. The team is
made up of softball players from every
town in the valley Only national tour
nament rules prevent it from being
listed as western states champion, a
title won at Phoenix recently.
Friends Of the team are attempting
this week to raise $1,000 to send the
team to Chicago. Various civic organiza-
tlons have contributed, and others prob
ably will join in raising the fund. MeXi-
cali sports fans, recognizing the i'm
portance of the tournament, have sub
scribed to send their friends from across
the border to Chicago
The trip to the Illinois city would
have boundless publicity value for I'M
perial Valley, which has broken into
the national sports spotlight several
times-most recently through its four
man high school championship track
team of three years ago. The valley
produces superlative athletes, as we'll
as superlative agricultural products,
but the rest of the nation will not know
it unless it is told.
With Imperial Valley" blazoned a.
cross the backs of their uniforms, the
All Stars would do much to popular
ize the valley, its climate and it's pos
sibilities.
1t is to be hoped they are able to go
to Chicago. Once there, they can be
depended upon to acquit themselves
well.

MIGRATORY WORKERS
CAMP FOR THE VALLEY

Announcement that the federal gov
ernment has decided to establish a mi
gratory workers camp near Brawley in
Imperial Valley, and subsequent con-
struction Of the camp, will be of vital
interest to every resident of the valley
interested in agricultural problems. The
federal decision was made in the face
of numerous protests against the prof.
ect, based largely on the belief that the
camp would become a rendezvous for
undesirable elements.
Such camp undoubtedly can be ex-
tremely desirable or extremely unde-
sirable. 1t is to be hoped that the peo-
pie of the valley will await develop
ments with an open mind. Since con-
struction of the camp is assured, it is
not the sensible thing to do to conclude
Immediately that it will not fit into
the economic scheme of the valley. 1t
is the sensible thing to do however, to
take every possible step to assure COM
petent supervision of the camp. Not in
the camp itself, but in its supervision,
lies possible danger.
Anyone who has seen the deplorable
conditions existing in migratory work
ers' ditch-bank camps that spring up
in Imperial Valley overnight during
harvest season realizes that they pre-
sent a problem which should be solved.
The difficulty lies in the fact that many
inhabitants of these camps do not OBJ
tain work. A permanent camp might
encourage them, some believe to remain
in the valley, living at government ex-
pense and creating problem that would
grow more severe as time went on. Only
through proper supervision can such
condition be prevented.
If radical elements are suppressed,
if only bona fide agricultural workers
are permitted to inhabit the federal
camp, and if it does not become a per-
manent home for persons whose labor
covers only a few months of the year.
the camp will be highly desirable.
If it is permitted on the other hand,
to become a breeding place for agricul-
tural disorders or permanent residence
for charity clients, then it cannot be
anything but liability to the communi-
