Secretary Ickes explained that the

pect to all permits extended by

(4) December 81, 1889, with res
pect to all permits which will

Extensions
The Secretary stated that a con-
siderable number of permits, which
were not extended to December 81
1897. by the act of August Il, 1885
or by departmental order, and whose
initial or extended term had ex-
PRED on or prior to August Il, 1887
by the act of August 81, 1885, or by
departmental order, and whose mi
tial or extended term had expirec
on or prior to August 81, 1887, with
out application for extension OF
time or application to exchange the
permit for a lease having been flee
prior to their respective expiration
dates, have already been terminated
and cancelled automatically by the
act of August 26, 1887.
Right to a lease on discovery made
within the current term of a per-
nit remains unimpaired; and the
act does not disturb the authority
of the Department to cancel any
permit for proper cause within the
period covered by its current term
The act also does not affect the De
partment's authority to issue lease
under the act Of August 81, 1885
in exchange for permit in good
standing, on application of the per-
mittee filed prior to the expiration
of the current term.
The act of August 70, 1887, it it.
self notice to all permittees of its
provisions, and formal notices tC
the permittees, whether of extern
sions granted by the act or of ter
limitations of the permits under its
provisions. are not necessary. How
ever, any interested party who
makes inquiry will be advised as to
the status of the permit under the
new law.
Secretary Ickes indicated that the
new legislation is applicable to
nearly 5000 permits issued on APP
plications filed prior to August 81
1885. The act of that date substi-
tuted leasing system with a mini
mum royalty of 1914 percent for the
permit system and minimum royal
ty of 5 percent provided for in the
leasing act of 1920. About 5000 OF
these permits are past the two-year
period of their initial term but have
remained outstanding, some of them
for 10 to Is years, under extension
provisions of various acts of Con-
gress. The current term of the ma
jority of these permits will expire
December 81, 1887. From 1900 to
1000 of the outstanding permits
affected by the new act are now in
their initial term.

L. S. ADDS TO
TERRITORIAL
POSSESSIONS

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 7. UP
The United States had a new ter
ritorial possession today in Mis-
sion Rock off San Francisco Bay,
which is really two rocks within
an area of 15-100ths of an acre
above the water.
The conquest was made without
struggle by landing party of
one u. S. naval officer and u. S.
marshal and deputy U. S. district
attorney The entire population,
consisting of a caretaker, was BAN
ished in exile to the mainland
and the stars and stripes of the
United States of America were
hoisted triumphantly.
Mission Rock juts up in the bay
a quarter mile Off the foot of Mis-
sion street. Once it was a docking
place for sailing vessels. President
Mckinley first claimed it for the
government in 1899. The supreme
court of the United States approved
the annexation in 1903. The verdict
was that the part of the rock above
water belonged to the United States,
and the part below was the prop
erty of the Mission Rock corpora
ton.

PLANTATION.
The belief was that secret police
feared there would be demonstra-
ton before the court house similar
to the astonishing manifestation of
last night, almost without precedent
under the repressive activities of
Nazism.
Last night, thousands of adherents
of the opposition movement to Nazi-
fication of the church maSsed in
front of Pastor Niemolier's church.
They openly defied orders of the
dreaded secret police to disperse,
and remained even when truckloads
of them were taken away, men and
women, pastors and layman, under
arrest.
1t was believed that the Nazi
church authorities, dismayed by this
defiance of quiet, home loving peo-
pile and the acquittal last week of
DR.. Friedrich Otto Dibelius, on
charges of violating Nazi represSive
DEGREES, wished more time TO elapse
before they prosecuted the beloved

FIR ENCH SHIPS
!. PATROL WAR
! ZONE AT
! SEA

PARIS, Aug. 8. U.P) - French
warships and planes patrolled the
Mediterranean sea lane between
Marseilles and North Africa today
with orders to fire on any plane
that attacked merchant shipping
on this vital French c0mmunica-
tion route.
Patrol work was conferred in wa
tiers adjacent to the Balearic islands
off the east coast of Spain, where
there is an important Spanish Ma
onalist airplane base that is I'M
1derstood to contain formidable
fleet of Italian seapalnes.
This fact was considered of great
importance because ever since the
outset of the civil war France has
been worried lest potential enemy
gain a foothold in the islands where
IL would be able to raid French
African communications.
French and British experts were
assigned to study bits of exploded
airplane bombs picked up from
the decks of four merchant ships
attacked during the last few days.
In this connection it was an
nounced that French war planes
sent out from Algiers had identified
4 mysterious war ship lying near
the scene where the ships were
attacked as the Nationalist cruiser
Canaris.
Authorities here believe the Can
arts was present because of infor-
nation that Russia had sent a
quantity of war materials to the
Spanish Loyalists in neutral ships.
British authorities, after the at
tack on the British corporal which
started the series of bombings,
protested to Spanish Nationalist
authorities. The Nationalists in Of
ficial statements denied they were
responsible.
7 Besides the British Corporal,
planes attacked the French pas
senger ship Djebel Amour, the Ital-
ian merchantmen Mongolia and the
Greek steamship Tsistakis. All were
ombed off Algiers.
- French authorities, astonished at
the audacity of the raiding avia-
tors, held all shipping in Algiers
harbor and released it only after
the establishment of the warsnip
Convoy.
Imperial Valley press., 1937-08-09

The reports which have persisted
for many days of disaffection be-
hind the Nationalist lines continue
undated
Today it was reported that Span
ish troops in Toledo had been put
under arrest after an outbreak of
ill-feeling between the Italians and
Nationalist Spaniards.
A semi-officiaI statement assert
ed that more than 500 men were
wounded or killed when Spanish
soldiers and officers, dlsobeying
orders of the general staff to sur
render their best barracks to Ital-
ians in the far south. fought the
Italians and Spanish Fascist phal-
angst militia as well. 1t was alleged
that fighting spread from the bar
racks to the bull ring, and that
Moors quartered there joined the
Revolt.
There were reports also of fight
ing between Nationalist soldiers at
Motril when some tried to desert
to the Loyalists, of popular upris-
ings at Malaga when troops were
sent to reinforce the Motril garri-
son, and of reinforcements sent to
the Algeciras area, near Gibraltar,
because of sabotage and fighting
between Moors and Italians.

Public Invited
To See New Gas
Air Conditioner

An invitation has been extended
by the Natural Gas Corporation of
California 20 all local residents to
inspect the new gas operated sum-
mer and winter air conditioning
installation which has just been
completed at the Ell Centre offices
of the company.
An open House. will be held
Wednesday, of this week with en-
ployees on hand to make complete
explanation of the installation, in
order that every one may have an
opportunity to familiarize them
selves with this equipment, which
is the first installation of its parti-
cular kind in Imperial Valley.
This equipment will be used for
heating in winter and cooling in
summer. The principal of operation
is identical to electrically operated
units, with the exception that the
well know Waukesha gas engine is
used for power, in place of an cleo
trio motor. Another unique feature
of this gas installation is the elimi-
nation of the customary unsightly
cooling tower, since this installation
includes a Waukesha EVaporative
Condenser, also driven by the ice
engine.
This installation is rated at sew
en- ton capacity and requires only
a 12HP electric motor, which is used
to operate blowers of the frame
Air Conditioner.
The equiment includes a four
cylinder Waukesha Commercial Ice
engine, using regular city gas to
drive the compressor equipment and
the evaporative condenser" said R
L. Nance, district manager of the
company here.
