HeWes Welcomes
Committee to Aid
District Problems

Formation of a committee of in
tereSted Imperial Irrigation Dis
trict assessment payers and ranch
ers to work with the board OF
directors in formulating plans for
the successful solution of the dis
trict's present financial Difficult
ties, was heartily welcomed by
Evan T. HeWes, chairman of the
district board today. Such a COM
mittee was suggested at a meeting
held in the courthouse last Satur-
day.
1T is my personal opinion that
one of the most beneficial things
that could happen would be the
naming of a permanent committee
of taxpayers to sit in with the
board at least once month";" Hew-
eS said in his statement.
This committee, composed of
representative ranchers from all
parts of the district, would then be
able to acquaint themselves with
all the policies of the board; with
the general operation of the dis
trict and other district affairs in
which they are, Or should be, vital
ly interested.
The Board meets in the El Gen.
tro office every Tuesday of the
year and I, personally, am in my
office every day, except Sunday.
from 9 o'clock in the morning
until 5 or six o'clock in the after
noon. I would welcome all sug-
gestions and consider it not only
a pleasure but a duty to discuss
anything which might. be of adj
vantage to the districts general
welfare"
Il am speaking for myself and
the other board members when 1
say that the fullest cooperation
will be extended each and every
rancher, taxpayer and land owner
of the district who is really inter-
ested in working out our mutual
problems to the best advantage of
all concerned"

COURT TOMORROW

John S. Farnsworth, dismissed naval
officer charged with espionage, will be
arraigned tomorrow morning before

INJUNCTION SIGNED
ON CLAW GAMES
Writ by Judge Luhring to Be
in Effect Until RepIevin
Trial in Fall.

A preliminary injunction restrain
ing police and the district attorney
from seizing claw machines was signed
today by Justice Oscar R. Luhring
Distributors of the machines. which
have been out of operation here since
March, began placing them in stores
and other gathering places Throughout
the city.
The injunction will run until next
Fall, when the trial of replevin suit,
filed some months ago. following
seizure of three machines in the
Shoreham Drug Co.'S store, is sched-
uled.
A similar order restraining conflsca-
tion of pin ball machines until final
hearing of the question of whether
they are games of chance or skill
was signed last week by Justice
Luhring.
The order signed today was in a
suit brought by Mrs. Freda BoosaliS,
1900 Park road, who owns 40 of the
300 claw machines which once op-
Grated here.
The suit, which will be tried next
October, is for the recovery of three
claw machines seized by police March
10 from the Shoreham Drug Co., at
Fifteenth and H streets. The pro-
prietor of the drug store, James H.
Forsyth, was charged with law vio-
lation, but the charge later was
dropped. Police retained possession
of the machines. Mrs. Boosalis, their
owner, filed a suit to recover them,
claiming that the machines were
games of skill and therefore legal.
