strike, affecting all Pacific coast
ports, were heard in Nogales dur
ing the current week when IS cars

terminal superintendent.
It also has been reported that the
Dollar Line, a major passenger
world wide service, recently landed
northbound passengers at Ensena-
da. Lower California, arranging for
taxicab service to San Pedro and
other California points. Striking
maritime workers from San Pedro
and Los Angeles were said to have
gone to Ensenada for the purpose OF
interfering with transportation OF

HATCHET BURIED
BY FINANCIERS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 81 When
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., a staunch
lifelong Republican and a heavy
contributor to the Republican cam
paign fund, wrote letter to Chair
man Farley of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee complimenting
him upon his statesmanlike utter
ances after the election, people in
Washington began to realize that
the political hatchet has been bur-
ried, at least temporarily.
It would be hardly accurate to
say that the signs point to another
such "era of good feeling as char
acterized President Monroe's Sec
ond administration, but there are
many evidences that political diff
ferences are being submerged in the
effort of all sorts and conditions OF
men to lend a hand in the complete
restoration of prosperity.
The Chamber of Commerce of the
United States has officially called
upon it's members to cooperate with
the Administration and Congress
for full recovery.
The Chamber of Commerce has
for three years past been the most
outspoken and vigorous critic OF
Mr.. Roosevelt's policies. 1t is the
feeling here that the tendency is
more to constructive criticism and
cooperation than to denunclatlor
and opposition, on the part OF
many of the important interests
which were violently opposing the
President before election.

LOTS OF RUMORS
AND PREDICTION

WASHINGTON (AutocaSter-, No
vember 27-While the air of Wash
ington is full of predictions and ru-
mors as to the policies of the Sec
ond administration of President
Roosevelt, a great deal of this kind
of talk is in the nature of trial
balloons.
Suggestions are made that the
President is considering this, that
or the other line of action, but that
does not by any means prove that
the particular policy has been de-
cided upon.
The public reaction to such ten
tative suggestions is expected to be
more influential now than it has
been in the past. So far there is
no program sufficiently crystallized
to warrant the prediction that IL
will even be presented to Congress
That does not mean that there
are not numerous persons IN hlgn
nositions in the Administration who
have pet plans which they will try
to get Congressional sanctiin for; II
is simply that the President IS oe-
1ieved to have refrained from COM
mitting himself to any of these IN
dividua1 plans.
Berry And Labor
A figure who will probably be
heard of more within the next few
months is Major George L. Berry
who has the title of Co-ordinatol
for Industrial Cooperation. Ma
jor Berry is president of the Inter
national Printing Pressmen's Un-
ion. but in addition to that has
large business interests and is re-
garded as wealthy man.
Berry's pet idea is to bring busi
ness organizations into cooperation
with the labor organizations, look
ing toward voluntary set-up much
along the lines of the NRA. Major
Berry is a man of great force ane
an able public speaker and prob
ably can do as much in this fielC
as anyone else who could be named
He is close in the Presidents con-
fidence and enthusiastic over tht
project of bringing about better
teamwork between employers ant
employees.

TWIN CITIES
ARE COLORFUL

A clearing point for a vast COM
mercial trade between the United
States and Mexico is Nogales, Ariz.
gateway to the West Coast of Mex
leo, and twin city to Nogales Son.,
Mex.
The two towns form an inter
national city, situated half in Mex
leo. half in the United States,
nesting in the foothills of the
Sierra Madre mountain range, and
boasting population of about IT,
600.
On the U. S. side of the inter
national border, the visitor finds
himself in a typical, hustling Amer
ican city where life flows fast-a
city of pretty homes modern shops,
and hurrying citizens.
A few steps, across the bOr-
der, the visitor enters what al
most seems as though it were
another worId-a world of
charm, color, enchantment and
glamour. There is combined
the care-free atmosphere and
Mexico's picturesque mode of
living.
1t is through the bustling U. S.
city of Nogales that a great por-
tion of the commerce between Mex
leo and this nation passes
Cattle pass through the federal
inspection station there, and vege-
tables and produce are cleared
through Nogales customs offices.
Receipts from imports and exports
at the port each year run into mil
lions of dollars.
The altitude combines with No
gales altitude Of 1869 feet to create
an almost perfect year around
climate, with no extremes of heat
or cold Population of the U. S.
city of Nogales is about $500.
Tourists seeking the sights
and thrills of foreign travel en-.
ter Mexico through NOgales.
From Los Angeles, the Southern
Pacific railroad enters Mexico
at NogaIes with it's pullman
trains bound for Mexico, d. F.
A subsidiary of the American
line, Sud Pacific de Mexico
carries the passengers south of
the international border.
Fishing parties travel through
Nogales enroute to Guaymas, Mex
where excellent fishing is found
Nogales also is a stop off point for
Mexico visitors bound for Hermo-
sillo, seat of the state of Sonora
government, 165 miles south of the
border.
Persons visiting in Mexico only a
short time are not forced to obtain
passports or other international
papers at Nogales. Only a few per-
functory questions are asked, both
upon entering Mexico and return
ing to the United States
The dividing point between the
two cities and between living con-
ditions that are as different or fal
apart as day and night, is six
foot high fence stretching down the
center of a paved street, and or
to the east and west over the sur
rounding hills.
It marks the international border

$500 Fund Needed To Send High School Drummers

Nogales faces an opportunity for
national publicity.
If the local high school drum and
bugle corps and drill team can
march down the rose bower ave-
nues of Pasadena during the an
nual Tournament of Roses on New
Years Day is will mean an unestim-
able amount to Nogales.
We understand that approxim-
ately 5000 has been raised to date
toward a fund to send the students
to Pasadena and that the Elks
Lodge has generously contributed
$50.
Mr.. r. T. Frazier, a member of
the board of supervisors of Santa
Cruz County has headed the work
of soliciting contributions for the
Pasadena trip and approximately
$1,000 is yet to be raised
The organization has been uni
formed and in Tucson won a prize
at the rodeo last February and
there is every reason to believe they
will duplicate at the Pasadena
event, which guarantees national
publicity.
Mr.. Frazier states that strenu-
ous local campaign will be made to
guarantee the amount and that the
ultimate sum is paramount for the
success of the trip.
Mr.. Frazier has said that contri
buttons may be sent to him or to
Mr.. Herbert King, who. together

MAN is SUFFOCATED
UNDER DIRT AVALANCHE

Ernest McKeefer, aged about 80, of
Havre de Grace, was suffocated Mon
day when several tons of earth fell
on him while he was working on a
pipe line in a fifteen foot ditch at
the U. S. Veterans Hospital at Perry
Point.
Two other men were working in
the ditch with McKeever at the time
but they heard the ground give way
and made their escape before they
were pinned under the avalanche of
dirt.
When fellow workmen finally found
McKeever after working feverishly
for half-hour digging him out, he
was dead from suffocation His body
was badly crushed from the several
tons of dirt which fell on him. DIR.
Cowie, officer on duty at the hospital
at the time, pronounced McKeever
dead and summoned Coroner Stanley
D. LETTERS, who issued a statement
of accidental death.
McKeever was unmarried and is
survived only by his mother, who
makes her residence in Wilmington.
She was notified of his death and pre-
parations were made for his funeral.

1t all depends upon the point of

truck crops this year.
Produce buyers throughout the
county have been paying prices con-
sistently above average on all crops.

ADDITIONAL SERVICE
NEEDED ON RAILROAD

With the increase in passenger
traffic, following reduction in rail-
road fares, requests for additional
train services on the Delmarva Divi-
sion of the Pennsylvania Railroad is
confidently expected in railroad cir
4cles.
A considerable increase in passen-
gers is reported on the division since
the fare reduction became effective.
Railroad officials, however, are silent
on plans for augmented service al
though preparations will soon be
made for the fall schedule.
The need for local train, leaving
Philadelphia and Wilmington in the
late evenings for peninsula points
has been cited. The Cavalier, a fast
; express, now provides this service to
the large towns on the division.
1t has also been suggested that an
early morning northbound and early
evening southbound train service be
restored on the Delmarva Division
south of Delmar. This service was
abandoned a few years ago, and sup
planted by bus operation over part
of the route.
Train No. 458, which leaves Del
mar at 6:55 a. M, for northern points,
might be made up at Cape Charles, as
formerly, it was pointed out.
Train No. 458, which leaves Del
mar in the early evening may be con-
tinued to Cape Charles.
This would provide early morning
and evening service for both pas
sengers and mail to all lower PENN
sula railroad points.
At the Chamber of Commerce Of
flee. at Salisbury it was said no re-
quest for the suggested improvement
of train service had been made to the
Pennsylvania Railroad. One or
more other points on the division.
however, have stressed the need for
the additional service.
An official at the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad office said last week passen-
ger traffic from Salisbury has al
ready increased lis per cent since
the reduction. He said he had also
noted a very apparent increase of
passengers originating from points
on the division south of Salisbury.
