1t looks as though it will
take pretty much all of one
section of the Senate gallery
to accommodate the family
of Senator-elect Clyde M.
Reed, of Kansas, when he
takes oath on January 3.
And you may be sure that
of his seven children at least
five will be here, some with
their own families, for that
all-important event.
Mrs. Reed returns with her
husband as no stranger to
Washington, and anticipates
with great joy renewing ac-
quaintances she made over
two decades ago. She had a
family of small children then
and two of those children are
graduates of Western H i g h
School.

Nazi Jew Purge
Settles Down
To System

BERLIN, June 20 CUP) - The
hysterical purge of unWanted Jews
which has sent hundreds to prisons
and concentration camps in the
past week, settled down to a sys-
tematic wedding out of undesir-
able elements today while the gov
ernment once more turned its at
tention to Czechoslovakia.
} One reason advanced for the
sudden lull in anti-Semitic terror
ism was that elements within the
Nazi party had exceeded themsel-
yes, that they had carried the
campaign further than the govern
ment wished.
With this in view, it was assert
ed government leaders sought to
divert public attention from the
anti-JewiSh drive to the German
minority problem in Czechoslova-
kia.
The latest incident was the re-
ported invasion" of German ter
ritory by Czechoslovak airplane.
An official protest was sent to the
Prague government.
In this connection, DR.. Wilhelm
Frick, Nazi minister of interior,
told the East Prussian Nazi party
district convention in Koenigsberg
that if such violations of the
frontier take place again, and
t'paper protests" prove useless,
more drastic measures must be
taken.

The Good Desert
released through the Ell Centre
Chamber of Commerce.

1t is another illustration of the
great law of compensation in that
while May and also June are cold,
cloudy, foggy, windy and generally
disagreeable during certain portions
of the time throughout the coast
districts of southern California,
these months are among the most
delightful of the year in the desert
regions and near-desert localities.
Meteorological speaking, it is the
shifting of the balance in air-mass
control; the great areas OF high
barometer which assume direction
of the weather of southern Cali
fornia thus late in spring and early
in summer pour out the relatively
cool air from the Pacific. This cir
culation is greatly aided locally by
the increased temperatures of the
desert. so that the air is drawn into
the deserts in the shape of broad
bands of horizontal air through the
lCW dlltl lcldtlNCIy
mountain passes. Had a break in
the coast been provided in southern
California, similar to San Francisco
bay, then the fog conditions of the
coast would be far more pronounc-
ed, for in this instance the rising
temperatures of the Sacramento
valley produce the definite balance
that sets up the air circulation aid
ed, of course, by the same areas OF
high pressure off the coast.
The dry, hot days OF the desert
with the relatively cool and sleep
producing nights during which the
daytime winds have dropped in
velocity: the entire absence of colds,
bronchial and throat disturbances
all of these June characteristics
are among the most pleasing MEM
ories of the great Imperial Valley.
