Residents Halted in
Efforts to Force
Salute on Children

LOS ANGELES, March &c. UR)-
Residents of Rendondo Beach today
were halted in their efforts to force
scholchildren belonging to a re-
ligiouS sect known as "Jehovah's
Witnesses" to salute the American
flag when District Attorney Buron
Fits ruled that California had no
state under which he could prose-
cute.
The prosecution was requested by
100 residents of the Perry school
district where the religious sect
maintained its private school.
Leaders of the sect said they Or
ganized the private school to avoid
necessity of their children saluting
the flag. The religious group holdts
that saluting any national emblem
violates Biblical commands.
I'VE have made a careful search
of statutes of California Fits said

functions obtained by the New
Cal and Southern Sierras power
companies. Last December a re-
quest to make this injunction per-
manent was denied by the U. S.
district court and although the
Southern Sierras Power company
has a suit asking a further injunc-
ton pending in superior court and
the Nev-Cal case has been taken

Since the resumption of work on

Imperial avenue, just beyond the
south city limit of BraWley, is the
scene Of great activity, according
to M. j. Dowd, chief engineer of
the. Imperial Irrigation District, as
a crew of workmen progress stead
lily toward the completion of the
Brawley power plant-the first unit
of the proposed power development
and distribution program of the
District.
This plant which is to furnish
power through Diesel engines is
the first step taken by the District
to start its power program and
when electricity is generated di-
rectly by the hydro plants along
the All American canal, the BraW-
lie plant will be used more for
standby purposes rather than as a
general plant to contribute the
power load of the system, in line
with the District plans.
Paved the Way
Two years ago the District paw
ed the way for the erection of this
plant near Brawley by contracting
with the Hooven, Owens, Rentsch-
Ter company Of Hamilton, Ohio, to
furnish the necessary Diesel en-
gines and other equipment.
Court actions against the Dis
trict followed the announcement of
this contract but work had been
started on the plant and was COIL

BENEFIT
FROM PUBLIC
POWER PLANTS
90 -

A recent issue of a national
magazine devoted to the interests
of public ownership of public util-
tiles published a table which show
ed the experiences of Is municipal
ly owned electric light plants in
Wisconsin as shown from their an
nual reports. This table proves
for one thing that in every case
the municipality owned plant paid
taxes TO the city wherein it is To-
Gated as well as other expenses
connected with the operation of the
plant.
1t is also intresting to note from
this table that each of these pub
licly owned systems returned a
steady profit over a period of years
which was added to the city's funds.
In one instance this profit amount
ed TO $558,4l5 over a five year
term. This same plant had paid
$10l ,359.44 in taxes to the city dur
ing the same time and still was
able to return the substantial sur
plus
Another plant paid $40,212 in
taxes to the city in which it is To-
Gated and during the five years in
which these taxes were paid the
plant accumulated a profit of 1922,
Q0S for itc pJctnraprc
Figures of this nature are of in
tereSt to residents of the Imperial
Irrigation District because one of
the most important features of the
power development and distribu-
ton program fostered by the Dis
trict lies in the fact that by the
operation of this system not only
will consumers here be favored
with lower rates for their power
but there will be a constant and
increasing surplus fund created
which will be used toward repay
ment of the All American canal
costs and then for the reduction of
taxes or assessments on lands with
in the District.

Building Not Erected
The building which is to house
the machinery for this plant has
not as yet been erected. The
foundations are in place but the
superstructure was delayed in or
der to facilitate the assembling Of
the engines and other machinery
to be put in the building. The SUI
perstructure will be of steel frame
and corrugated iron construction
with concrete floor.
When completed it rs expected
that the total cost of the entire
plant will be about $22S,O0O which
amount includes the en- gines, gen.
orators and miscellaneous machin-
cry.
Workmen at the District shops
in Imperial have practically COM
pleted the switchboard for the plant
and this will be set up in place
within the next few weeks. The
cooling tower and main fuel oil

capacity of 1000 barrels, have both
been completed while the work Of
installing the pumps, tanks, piping

Russian Miner Gets OyercOat
 In Royal Style
(By The Associated Press)

t1y Inc ASSOCldtcO IIcoS) MOSCOW, Dec. 10, - A play which caused a furore in Moscow literary circles has revealed that a Stakhanovte gold miner will receive as reward for ex- ceptional work, an exact dupli- cate of an overcoat worn by King George V, made by the late King s tailors.
 The incident was brought to light when Micolai Pogodin, pro- minent Soviet playwright, read a comedy to a circle of Moscow writers. Criticized because his audience thought the comedy based on an improbable incident, Pogodin retorted, Its a fact, and revealed the circumstances.
 He said that the gold miner whose name was not revealed, was offered a reward for his i Stakhanovite work. He request ed a ''shuba" or overcoat such as that worn by the late king.
 Gold trust officials were shock ed They communicated with Al eXander Serebrovsky, head of the gold trust, in Moscow. Sere- brovsky telegraphed back, "Send me his measurements"
 SerebrovSky then communicat. ed with the Soviet Embassy ir London, which ordered the coat through the late kings tailors.
 Pogodin won his point, and the play after being rewritten will be produced both on stage and screen.

Diamonds Held Childish.

More's Utopians thought of precious
stones as baubles and had a unique
way of bringing the lesson home to
their children. They would polish up
any diamond they came upon on their
coats and adorn the children with the
gems. The children were of course
delighted and would glory in them,
but as they grew to manhood and
womanhood, and see that only chill
dren wore such things, without bid
ding from their parents or teachers,
they would throw the gems away as
baubles men and women disdained
and which belonged only to childish
years.
