POLICIES. NOT POLITICS, SHOULD GOVERN SELECTION
OF DIRECTORS FOR THE IRRIGATION DISTRICT BOARD

for constructive district operation We
believe both are without commitments,
either to Rose or Hewes. We do not be-
lieve that either should be tarred with
false brush simply because Mark Rose
would vote for Gregg or Evan Hewes
would cast his ballot for Aten.
1t is as certain as black and white that
if Rose supported Aten, Hewes would
support Gregg.
In neither case would the candidates
themselves be different.
For practical purposes we may as
we'll forget factionaliSm and stick to
issues. On these, and these alone, should
our decision be based.
If every voter measure his candidates
by the four points heretofore enumerat-
ed. finally choosing the man who in his
opinion will best be able to carry them
through, no one can rightly complain.
Let us, as voters and as owners, in
fact, of the Imperial Irrigation Dis
trict, forget factionalism, turn deaf
ear to whispering campaigns that stress
telephone numbers, place of abode and
manner of dress, and judge these candi-
dates as best we can by what we know
of them as men. and by their records,
their policies and their platforms. There
are two men to choose between. They
are:
w. J. Gregg. He is a veteran rancher
and business man, successful in both
lines He has had years of experience
with Imperial Valley agricultural prob
lens. He is thoroughly acquainted with
credit problems and financial difficult
ties of the district He has established
a record as an independent thinker along
civic lines.
Marion Aten. Through association
with his father, Ira Aten, he has gained
wide experience in agricultural develop
ment From his father, the retiring dis
trict director, he has kept in close con-
tact with district problems. He has gain
ed business experience by helping to
manage the large Aten farm holdings.
These are the two men. The choice is
up to the voters.

CHOOSE MOST QUALIFIED
CANDIDATES FOR DISTRICT JOBS

Voters at large in the Imperial Irriga-
tion District Wednesday will elect
treasurer and an aSseSSor-cOllector
Miss Anna McManus is unopposed for
treasurer, and we believe rightfully so.
Her administration of the office during
the last term has been all anyone could
ask in the way of efficiency. 1t is a
tribute to this efficiency, as we'll as to
her personal popularity, that no one has
Ventured to oppose her for election. We
are glad of this.
For assessor-collector, we believe w.
A McFadden deserves reelection. He
has been in office only one term, yet
during that term he has become thor
oughlv acquainted with the complex
the center of the entire irrigation dis
trict system.
Out of chaos he has brought order in
to bookkeeping methods. He has saved
the taxpayers thousands of dollars
through businesslike handling of his Of
flee. He has wiped out old inequalities
IN assessments, he has corrected errors
that had remained on the books for many
years.
McFadden's administration has been
such that we believe the voters should
return him to the office he has filled so
capably, giving him a chance to continue
the service he has rendered in behalf Of
every taxpayer in the district.
There are numerous reasons why Nc
fadden should be reelected There are
too many to list in the space available
here. Most of them, fortunately, are
known to a great many people.

tapped a typewriter key but it was
early in life. Maybe it as his re-
markable ability to see the news
before it happens that allowed
Cation at the age of IA to state
definitely that his would be the
life of a newspaperman. He mace
that prophecy come true.
At Oberlin college, in Ohio, he
was editor of the school paper.
His first real job in the neWSpa-
per field came as a reporter Tor
the Cleveland News. He liked re-
porting interviewing people
analyzing news developments.
and he continued in that field
when he joined the staff of the
Boston American little more than
year later.
BY that time he had become
known in the newspaper world for
his almost exhaustless supply of
general knowledge, and the Cleve-
land Plain Dealer brought him
back to Cleveland to pass on news
stories before they went into the
paper.
Joins NEA Service
Cation was glad to return to
Cleveland, for, as he explains it,
my girl was living in Cleveland,
and it was either come back or get
a new girl" They were married in

An Economist S
Viewpoint
By John T. Flynn

Congress now faces the duty OF
reforming and recasting the Social
Security Act.
The act is SO generally bad that
the wise course would be to start
at the beginning and make it
over. But unfortunately, when so
vast an enterprise is started
wrong, it is difficult to go back,
The tragic feature of all this is
that the maladjustments and mis-
takes in the Social Security Act
are not weaknesses which could
not be foreseen.
There is a disposition to say
that this business of unemploy-
ment insurance and old age PEN
sions is something new and that
inevitably much had to be learned
before it could be made right.
But unemployment insurance
and old age pensions are not new.
England, Germany and many other
countries have been operating
them for a number of years. An
immense body of knowledge was
accumulated in 1884 when the
government sat down to the job
of forming a plan for America.
Moreover, there were in the
country a number of men who hao
spent their lives studying the sub
ject. Old age pension laws hac
been adopted in several states anc
other forms of social security were
in existence. The business of in
surance finance is a study which
claims a large number of experts
But there were experts who knew
whatever was to be known abou
these matters.
One of the strange episodes o
these years is that a group o
statesmen would undertake to Sc
up social security plan and de
liberately exclude from their de
liberationS nearly all the men VIII
really knew about the subject.
A few experts on insuranc
finance were called in. But tn
recommendation they made Wer
thrown into the wastebasket il
favor of proposals which came fror
men who had never thought aboli
social security in their lives.
But this all has happened. Th
thing to do now is to undo whs
has been done as far as possibl
and recast the system. That
lob for Congress. Congress
cbo,Ild now do what the PreSiden
refused to do.

tell YOU how to keep from need
less worry. He is DR.. Frank Ar
thur Payne, the famous psycnoio-
gist. and author of "A Mental Dlet
for Mental Health
Here are his six Golden Rules
for Worries"
|. Make time your best frieno
Learn to relax in the face OF trou-
Bile Refuse to worry about it. the
things you worry about often &c
not come to pass.
Q Don't talk about your Wor-
ries. People are not Interested IN
YOUR troubles. If you talk apou'
them. you will merely magnify
them in your own mind-and bore
the people who are listening tc
YOU. And then you will begin to
worry about that!
8. Figure out where though'
ends and worry begins. Worrlers
are not really thinking = all they
are doing is worrying. Thinking Is
constructive - worrying is destruc-
tive, There is a division line be
tween constructive thought ano
destructive worry. Find it - ano
get on the right side.
q. Do not make the mistake oil
never expecting to make a mis-
take. Do not think that you Will
always make the right decisions
It is much better that your decl-
sion lead to you to poor solution
than that you make no decision al
all.
5. Decide either to do something
or decide to do nothing. II you are
worrying about something you can
do nothing about - forget it! II
YOU can do something, decide what
YOU will do - then do 1t!
G. Do not expect perfection in
anything. Nothing in the Worlo
can possibly be perfect Do not
expect perfection for yourself, fol
other peple, or for anything al
all When you fully realize this
some of your worries will fall away
You Will see you are SIliVhiS io'
the unattainable, and will accepI
something less and not worry abou'
its flaws.
There! that's the end OF DR.
Payne's Six Golden Rules, II yol
know someone who is prone tt
worry too much, why don't yol
clip this out and send 1T to him?
