LET US START PLANNING
FOR THE FUTURE

San Francisco and Oakland have open
ed the Oakland Bay Bridge to motor
traffic amid fanfare reaching to every
corner of the United States. Even now
those communities are laying plans for
a greater celebration, a nationwide
event, when the great Golden Gate bridge
is completed. Details of that celebra-
ton are taking definite shape. 1t will
not be a thing of the moment, hastily
organized and hurriedly staged.
Imperial Valley can profit by the eX-
ample set in the San Francisco bay re-
gion.
We have under construction the larg
est irrigation canal in the world-a can
al which has received national publicity.
Nothing like it has ever been attempted
in the Western Hemisphere Behind its
progress is as colorful story as you
can find in the history of any modern
achievement The All American canal,
in its way, is just as much an engineer
ing marvel as the Bay Bridges. Why
not capitalize on it?
1t is not too early to begin planning
for the celebration which should accom-
pany the opening of the All American
canal to service Nothing could mean as
much to Imperial Valley. No haphazard
planning should be allowed at the last
minute, to make the final canal celebra-
ton a touch and go affair Committees
should be named and tentative plans
drawn.
Imperial Valley cannot plan too care
fully for its greatest celebration.

WILL HAROLD TCKES
CONTINUE IN THE CABINET?

Official circles in Washington have
been busy for many months with rumors
Of intended changes in President Roose-
velt's C a b in e t. Election campaigns
brought the rumors to a stop for a
while. but with the president reelected
for another four years the rumors have
been revived and given greater life.
One of the changes considered pos
sible would put some as yet unnamed
young man in the position now occupied
by Secretary of Interior Harold L. lckes.
Not that Ickes has not done a good job
as secretary of the interior, but his
penchant for engaging IN inter-depart-
ment arguments which often reach the
public prints may tell against him.
Imperial Valley is particularly inter-
ested in the secretary's position. He is
directly connected with reclamation pro-
iects. and has much to do in recent
months with the All American canal
and other reclamation plans here. No
fault has been found with his attitude,
unless delays which may have been una
voidable can be attributed to him. The
valley will have little to say about whe-
ther Ickes remains in the cabinet or
goes out, but what Influence can be mus
tered here should be directed toward
seeing that a competent successor is
chosen if he is replaced.
An unfriendly secretary of the in
terror could toss more than one monkey
wrench into the wheels of Imperial Val
ley's operation.
The situation is one which will bear
close scrutiny here
