Bitter labor criticism of the Duke

the possibility the former British
ruler might curtail his trip.
The criticism recalled an implied
threat that the trip might be cur
tailed. The suggestion was dropped
by Charles Bedaux, New York ef-
ficiency expert who will guide the
duke.
In a press conference, Bedaux
told reporters:
IF the radical press are in

gest that they wait until half the
tour is over because L would like
to see the tour completed"

Highway Officials
Urge New Road
To Link Nations

A highway connecting Canada
and Mexico via California and I'M
perial Valley over a proposed road
paralleling the new railway south
of Mexicali, isA advocated by off
cials of the international -Four
States Highway association.
The proposal road would lead
to the state of Sonora and connect
with the Hermosillo- Mexico City
west coast highway. The present
terminus of the Four States high
way is Calexico and Mexican Off
cials are urged to extend the road
into the interior of Mexico from
Mexicali.
In letter to Francisco Campillo
president of the Mexicali Chamber
of Commerce, Robert Hays, ma
tional secretary of the internation-
al highway association, pointed
out the advantages of such a high
way link through Baja California
Hays letter said in part:
Our organization was formed
to complete a highway beginning
az LllC SdlldOAdll Ill lllWCob-
ern Montana and extending south
ward to Calexico and Mexicali
Then it is hoped to connect these
with a Mexican highway system
which will carry on down to San
ia Ana or some place on the Her.
mosillo route, and thence on to
Mexico City and perhaps finally
to Central and South America. II
must be very apparent to you that
such a road, if we had a connec-
ton through Baja California to
Sonora, would bring a great amount
of motor travel through Mexicali
and to Baja California.
1T seems that with the railroad
construction now going on, not a
great deal of extra work would
be required to puild a highway
alongside at the same time and
thus bring double benefit to the
people of Baja California and tc
Sonora"

FARM BUREAU ATTORNEY IN
VALLEY IN FREIGHT RATE FIGHT

interstate commerce commission in
the hope that the commission will
not handicap California cantaloupe
growers and shippers by granting
10 per cent rate differential to
Arizona. Such a differential is in
effect for lettuce shipments and the
hearing on the cantaloupe rate re-
duction is expected to take place
before the first of the year. Miller
said.
An appeal from the lettuce rate
reduction was filed by California
growers and shippers two weeks
ago. The information Miller ac-
cumulated with the help of Scott
B. Fould5. farm bureau manager.
c. O. Hoober, farm bureau presi-
dent, j. E. Harshman. vice. president,
and group of growers will be used
at both hearings.
Miller was particularly interested
in obtaining data on the cost of
production. The farm bureau fed
Grafton is one of the intervenors
in the pending cases and is inter-
ested on behalf of the farmers.
THE farm bureau federation is
interested mainly because of the
principal involved" Miller explain
ed. ANY departure from blanket
shipping rates to eastern markets
is viewed as dangerous precedent.
The federation fayors blanket rates
for the shipment of agricultural
products from the west to eastern
markets. If the practice of blanket
rates is abandoned, 1t might be pos
sible for the rates to be different
from the different sections of Cali
fornia." t'tt

Fate, however, was kind
enough to wait 10 years between
the three attacks made upon
the big toe on his right foot.
The last attack was made this
week when a SO gallon gasoline
drum rolled off a truck near
Heber while he was changing
a flat tire and smashed the
toe which survived two former
assaults.
He was loading ice 10 years
ago when the tongs broke and
dropped block of ice on the
toe. Ten years before thxt, he
declared, the wheel of -sn ex-
