They praise the management

and his wife go from Washington to Fire
Island. just off New York's Long Island. On
the sands, boys are flying kites. The Generals
wife looks at them - smiles inscrutably. The
General asks what she is smiling at.
The kites" she answers him.
The boys, you mean" He is puzzled.
NO." she says. The tails on the kites
There they are, never knowing where they're
going, but always trailing along - just like

could kite fly without tail?"

for always taking people to lunch or dinner
at his own house, instead of whisking them
off to the Club as most officials and officers
do. The reason is Mrs. Marshall - slender

Representa- llNtS anu I'll OtllGIO Duo-
incssmen, the S. P. officials ex-
planning two possibilities of i'm
proved service. The S. P. officials
told Imperial Valley residents not
to be too hopeful of the improved
scrvi"c but there is a possibility
something will be done to improve
the service.
Herring said one of the possibil-
tics for improvement was the rout-
ING of a transcontinental train from
Yuma to Los Angeles by way OF
central Imperial Valley. All trans
"0ntircntal trains now miss central
Imperial Valley because they are
routed from Yuma directly across
the desert to inland. The new
plan, if adopted, will mean that
an caStbOund and a WeStbound
tranScCntinental tram daily will go
through MeXico and back into the
United States.
SECOND FLAN
Tho ether plan, Herring said,
would be installation OF sleeper
routed direct between central I'm
pcrial Valley and Los Angeles on
the existing ni9ht train schedule.
Herring said some businessmen IA
vor the tranSContinental train plan
and others the through sleeper
plan. Those who favor the trans
continental train plan, he said,
point out that this Is Imperial Val
ley'S long sought opportunity to
get back on tranScontinental train
service. The re-routing of a trans
continental train through Imperial
Valley would mean only 40 minutes
longer on the run from Yuma to
Los Angeles, Herring was told.
Greater interest in the tranScon-
tincntal line was aroused when 1t
was explained that it probably
wCull be the Golden State Limited
most widely known S, P. train
which would be routed through CEN
tral Imperial valley. If this plan
is adopted, Herring said, the west
bound would pass through central
Imperial Valley around 3 pm. and
arrive in Los Angeles around 8 pm.
OPINIONS WELCOMED
Herring said the Ell Centro cham
bnr of commerce has voiced no pref
crcnce in regard TO the two plans
for improved service. The chamber
directors and officials will welcome
all expressions of opinion on the
part of the travelling public and
will favor the plan desired by tic
majority.
After ALL" Herring said. "it is the
chambers interest to help obtain
the service which meets the public
demand. We believe it will be of
material service to the Southern
Pacific if We find out what the pub
lie wishes"
Herring sand the problem prob
lbly will be discussed by the cham
brr directors at their regular meet
ING at 7:30 pm. March 18.
