Such A Scandal!
Former Sheriff
Steals Auto

Charles Gillette, former sheriff
of Imperial county, was startled
Tuesday morning to discover he
had an automobile which did not
belong to him and the situation
was complicated further by the
fact that he did not know where
he obtained it.
Always a resourceful man, Gil
lette telephOned Ell Centre police,
asked if an automobile had been
reported stolen and provided an
accurate and graphic description
of the machine he acquired.
1t developed that E. A. Allender
spent a bad night searching for an
automobile he borrowed from Su-
pervisor A. Y. Preble. He parked
the machine downtown, he told
police, and it disappeared before
he returned. He left valuable tools,
a sulphur tank and gas mask in
the car and t.iac made Is worse.
Daylight however, brought SOL
ution. The former sheriff changed
automobiles with his son, Cecil
Gillette, and parked downtown be-
side Preble's machine which was
parked by Allender. Since the cars
were exactly alike, one looked as
good as another to Gillette.
Solving the problem brought hap
piness to Allender, Gillette and
Preble and great amusement to Ell
Centre police.

BEWILDERMENT GRIPS
NATIONS FARMERS

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 7. U.P)-
Bewilderment and apprehension
gripped farmers, plantation opera
tors and ranch owners of far west
ern United States, Hawaii and the
Philippines today in the wake of
the U. S. supreme courts decision
outlawing the agricultural adjust
ment act.
From Canada to the Mexican
border, dirt farmers and leaders
of the vests sustaining industry
generally viewed the decision as
threatening calamity" to vast
farming enterprises just beginning
to show signs of healthy revivifi-
cation after years in the doldrums.
Reaction among, Honolulu's sugar
planters was one principally of
bewilderment, while Philippines
operators saw possibly unrestrict-
ed production resulting from sew
ering of AAA control as a poten-
TALLY adverse factor to one of the
islands principal industries.
On eve of the AAA's birth, Cali
fornia agriculture suffered its first
widespread labor strikes. Blood
shed, rioting and production para
lysis, with unharvested crops rot
ting on the trees, vines and in the
fields, was felt for the first time
to major extent.
E. D. Woodruff, president of Cali
fornia Lands Co., one of the states
major farm property operators, had
this to say of the decision.
LAS a farmer, 1 can say empha-
tically that despite the supreme
court ruling, the detectives of the
AAA are vital necessity to agri-
culture"

* REDS INVITED &.
Il NEW DEAL SKITTISH :.
y BREAKDOWN SEEN &.
4 FARM LABOR THREAT -.
BY CHARLES STEWART

ASHING TON, D. G. -
The possibilities of Wisconsin S
new Farmer Labor Progressive as
ISOLATION are much discussed by
politicians swarming into Washing
ton for the 1886 congressional ses-
SIGN.
The organization is a partnership
of La Toilette ProgreSsiveS, farm
ers, representatives of the state
federation of labor, and Socialists.
Communists also are invited 20
join, as individuals.
1t appears that the alliances
essential principle is production
for use', as against production for
profit other words, termina-
ton of the capitalistic system.
CONSERVATIVES SHUDDER-
All this strikes many public men
in the capital as a pretty radical
alignment and program.
Most New Dealers, even, are
skittish.
Nc one expects the association
to make dent of national pro-
portions at the coming election,
but if its statewide showing is a
strong one, it will give shivers to
conservative statesmen and to
some who are fairly liberal but
not enough so to invite Commun-
lists to join them.
*
ANALYZE MOVE
If times improve in the next year
Or two CIR three, observers of the
situation are confident that the
new Wisconsin movement will
peter out without reaching form
liable size.
Otherwise they are afraid it will
spread, perhaps becoming a SER
iouS factor to be reckoned with in
1888 and 1910.
They say that a mere pickup
in business will not avert the
danger, but minus a satisfactory
diminution must be available, too.
And wages must be good, in COM
parison with living costs.

RADICAL TREND
Wisconsin's politioo economic
trends somehow worry conserVa-
tive and moderate liberals (consti-
tutionalists generality more than
similar trends in any other state.
Senator George w. Norris of
Nebraska and Senator Burton K.
Wheeler of Montana, for example
are as radical as was ever the elder
Senator Robert M. La Toilette,
but Nebraska and Montana are
not regarded as any such hotbeds
of red sentiment as is Wisconsin.
