THE PEOPLES POWER.
THE PEOPLES MONEY

The Ell Centro city council deserves
the commendation of the community for
not Immediately accepting what at first
glance appeared to be a very attractive
offer from the private power company
desiring to bind the city to long-term
Contract. A hasty consideration might
have meant acceptance of the contract.
More mature deliberation will result. we
are sure, in rejection of any offer that
would tie up the city to the private COM
pany after public power is available in
FL Centre.
If there were no possibility that pub
llc power will be delivered in FL Centre
the three-year contract offered by the
company would be one of the most at
tractive ever made. In that event the
$500 saving it is claimed the city would
make under the proposed contract would
IN reality be saving. As it is, there
would be no saving, but loss.
There would be a loss because the
people would be paying, through taxes.
for the electric energy purchased from
the power company, and at the same
time would be paying through their pri-
vate power bills to support their own
power system. The more business the
public system gets, the more assured
will be its success, and the lower the
rates will be. BY giving the city's business
to the power company, the city would
be forcing its people to bear double
burden.
Every time there has been test at
the polls, the people of Ell Centro-like
the people Of other parts of the valley
have voted Overwhelmingly in favor
of the municipal power system. No other
issue in the history of this county has
received such popular support The peo-
pie have used their ballots time and again
to tell their representatives to support
the public power program. The city
council could ask no clearer mandate.
Now with public power due in Ell
Centro this fall, the council has an obli-
CATION we believe its members will be
only too glad to discharge. 1t is an obli-
cation to say to the power company:
Our people do not want their city
tied up by any long term contract that
would force them to contribute to the
corporation they are opposing in the
power field

COURTESY BARS
OPEN MUFFLERS

Did you ever close your eyes on the
verge Of sleep-then sit bolt upright in
your bed when what seemed to be all
the racket. out of hades broke loose in
your neighbOrhood? If you did, the
chances are even that you found out it
was some careless motorist having lot
of fun with an open muffler. If our
opinion there is no more discOurteous
individual among the ranks of discour-
teous motorists than the one who splits
the night-or the day either, for that
matter-with the roar of an open muf-
fler.
True courtesy extends to those whom
we do not know and to those with whom
we do not come in personal cntact. True
courtesy decrees that We close the muf-
flers on our automobiles before we shat
ter the peace of everyone within a couple
of miles.
If you know anyone who insists on
opening up the muffler on his car, it
might be well to call the rules of cOur-
tesy to his attention. If that doesn't do
any good-and often it wont-it might
be we'll then to call the police.
After all, there is law against open
mufflerS.

Monitor and them errimac il
Hampton Roads. Virginia. the
boys eyes opened wide as he saw
a Monitor anchored in Portland
Harbor. A boat carried visitors
from one of the docks to the Moni-
tor. He raced toward the dock,
followed as usual by his dog. He
was going to get aboard that Mon
itor! But there was catch
Twenty-fiv cents! And he didn't
have it!
Being the kind OF boy he was, 9
condition like that couldn't hol1
him back. Racing to 4 nearby
shipyard. he found a log seasoning
in the water. Mounting the log,
and with a stick for a paddle, his
dog perched behind him. he made
his way toward the Monitor. They
had almost reached the ship WHOM
the dog become q little too eager
and knocked Cyrus into the water.
He could swim like Guck. so what
the difference? But there was a
difference The Captain had been
ON the lookout. He understood the
situation as a glance. He liked .
help the kind Of boy who was out
to help himself He had him brought
aboard and his clothes dried. Then
Cyrus toured the ship as the Cap
tain's invited guest.
CYRUS Curtis grew up to be a
man who always found a way to
reach any object he made up his
mind to reach. For he was man
Of integrity. and a hard worker. He
demonstrated that such would be
his way OF life fhen he padded that
huge log out to the Monitor.
Years late. he wanted to buy a
supplement to a more or less OBJ
scure magazine with about 1000
subscribers Again there was Il
hitch. He didn't have the money!
And again there was an on-looker.
This time a brother n-laW-Wfo
knew all about him-helpsd him
with a lean of $1,000. This sup
plement became The Ladies Home
Journal. The magazine succeeded;
and later Cyrus Curtis became tine
owner of the Saturday Evening POST
and The Country Gentleman, with
a combined circulation of more
than seven million.
Now, there must have been some
reason why this boy could inspire
people to want to help him. What
is your CESS? Mine is determina-
ton, ambition. and vision; backed
up by hard work, initiative, and in
tegrity.

Famous Sayings
Bruce Cation Says
: When is Constituent Not Constituent?

An odd sidelight on the way n

America was furnished the other
day in the capitol building of the
state of Ohio.
Ohio has a relief crisis" on its
hands; has had it, off and on, for
a long time. In its great industrial
cities scores of thousands of peo-
pie are destitute, and there is nc
more money to spend on them
From time to time the problem
has been handed TO the legislature
but each time the legislature has
stalled and fumbled and let the
problem slide.
So the other day the speaker OF
the state House of Representatives
called an unusual conference at
the capitol. 1t was attended by re-
personalities of the legislature, the
governor of the State-and all of
the leading lobbyists Primarily, it
was openly and avowedly a con-
ference of lobbyists: and a vet
eran reporter covering the state
house wrote of it as follows:
"Despairing OF the possibility
that the legislature would pass
any program as long as powerful
lobbies were opposing revenue
raising bills. Uible Cthe speaker
called the lobbyists themselves in
to session
These lobbyists included a group
known as the Inter Organization

WHAT EDITORS SAID
OF IOWA PRIMARY

Neto York Daily NeWS-. There's no
doubt about 1.-THE New Deal took a
licking in the Iowa primary the re-
suit seems To indicate that a change (to
drop practice of endorsing court bill
proponentS) would be wise as a matter
of practical politics.
NeU York HirrOr-The puShoyer vic
tory Of Senator Gillette in Iowa over the
candidate that Mr.. Harry Hopkins and
Mr.. James Roosevelt endorsed reminds
us of the time that President Wilson
tried to tell the country whom they
ought to elect to congress.
New York Herald Tribune. as to
the right of a United States senator to
vote according TO his conscience without
being "purged' out of office by relief
moneys -. there could not have been
clearer issue =. SO far as the Demo-
Gratis Of Iowa are concerned, no dictator
need apply.
NeU York TimeS-The one unmstak-
able result of Iowa's primary election
is a rebuff for the. elimination commit
tee which set out to make support of
the presidents supreme court plan an
acid test of fitness for membership in
the senate.
Kansas City JOHrHGi-POs - THE re-
suits of the Democratic primary in Iowa
provide little grounds for elation either
by the administration or its opponents
Senator Gillette won the nomination af-
ter 2 campaign in which he emphasized
his support of the New Deal ON virtually
every point . representative Xearin
:. . has been only slightly more consis-
tent in his administration support
PhiiadeipLiid RecOrd-Newspaper read
ers all over the nation have been inform
ed that the New Deal suffered a setback
in Iowa. 1t did =. Gillette'S victory had
been expected for several weeks. That 5
why the conservative press has been
playing up the Iowa primary as test
of New Deal strength without trying
to minimize the Iowa setback, we submit
that the North Carolina primary is of
equal Importance.
Kansas City Sfn-The result of the
Iowa primary is a blunt rebuke to New
Deal meddling in state affairs. Here
after the Harry Hopkinses, the James
R0oseyelts and the other political busy
bodies will be little more cautious in
presuming to tell the people of any state
whom they should select as candidates.
Detroit Free PTeSS-The setback .
President Roosevelt received from the
Democrats of Iowa is as emphatic as the
setback in Pennsylvania =. the vote was
a notice to Washington that in Iowa
folks are continuing to do their own nom
mating.
Chicago Tribune - Although political
pressure was all on the Democratic side,
the total Republican vote for its two can
didates was largely in excess of the ag-
gregate cast for the five Democrats, from
which not unWarranted conclusion
would be that Iowa may swing back into
the Republican list of states All in all,
the New Deal asked for it in Iowa and
got it-on the chin.
Chicago Times-Among the things the
New Deal should have learned is that
Joe Public doesn't look upon a vote
against the Presidents court reform bill
as cardinal sin :. the primary proved
that the walls of anti-New Dealers about
vote buying and the power of the WPA
as a political weapon are as phony now
as they were in 1886

CITY TAvERNS
 FACE NEW BLOW
New Coming Ordinance Would Eliminate Many
 Liquor Permittees

Liquor permittees in Waterbury face a split over the proposed amendment to the city zoning ordi- nances which would limit the num- Der of liquor establishments in the city. The amendment would forbid the establishment of a tavern, grill, hotel or package store within 1000 feet of any other place where liquor is sold or within 200 feet of any school, church, charitable insti- tuition, hospital or library. It has the support of one group of per- mittees, but is strongly opposed by another group.
 A committee of the Board of AL dermen will hold a public hearing on the proposal at the City Mall March 24th. Advocates and oppo- nents of the measure will flock to the hearing in large numbers.

 STILL ON TRIAL
Scores of Witnesses Re- main to Be Questioned
 Over State Scandal

Bridgeport, Conn.,, March 12 -(U. P)-Scores of witnesses today re- mained to be questioned as an ex- traordinary grand jury, investigat- ing the states $6,100,000 Merritt Parkway land purchases, recessed for the weekend. The inquiry, which began early two months ago after charges were made that ex- orbitant prices were paid for rights of-way, appeared scheduled to con- tinue indefinitely. More than 100 witnesses have been examined in connection with the 432 individual transactions which cost the state slightly less than one-third the cost of the super-highway in Fairfield county.
 Bank Accounts
 City Auditor Milton H. Friedberg, appointed to examine the bank &C., counts and business records of per- sons involved in the sales, made his first appearance before the jury yesterday. Following him on the witness stand were MT. and Mrs. Leon A. Fish, Darien, who received $7,500 for a .33 acre tract. Mrs. Fish formerly was employed by G.

 Late in the day voluminous files of bank records relating to various negotiations were placed at the dis posal of the jury.
