some reason Both major compan-

Charlie Chaplin was forsaken pub
licly by his best friends today,
while his ration board sought to
find out where he got the gasoline
for his wedding trip and two law

from Paulette Goddard.

the actor, who says she is to bear

and even offered to involve himself
in the case to clear his friend.
He took care of the financial ar
rangements in the early stages of
the Barry case, and answered ques-
tions propounded by district attor-
ney's Investigators.
Arden had not been advised of
the impending nuptials and was
frank in saying he thought his pal

obtain a hidden wage increase
8 TO 4 VOTE
The boards decision was adooted
by an eight to fc,lr vote, the four
labor members dissenting. The labor
members contended the board could
have granted pay for underground
travel time.
The WLB in effect told the min
ers they could carry their portal

believed they could justify it under
the wage-hour law.
Chairman William H. Davis said
the present method of figuring tile
miners working time and pay had
been built up over many years, and
that the miners had agreed TO it.
Furthermore, he said, the federal
wage-hour administration had ap-
proved the mine wage structure

ers in essential industries, Finney
urged that all employers of labor
in the more than $50 essential firms
in the valley sign up under the
revised employment Stabilization
plan for southern California.
13l TURN OUT
A total of 131, mostly employers
but including a few employees, turn
ed out to near Finney and Lyman
Dixon, district representative of the
wages and hours division of the
War Labor Board. Finney explained
the stabilization plan in detail
which is designed to stop undue mi
grafton of workers and pirating of
labor, while Dixon briefed federal
regulations on wage increases.
The farmers advantage over other
essential employers, Finney disclos-
ed, comes from the fact that they
are not restricted by either part 9C4
or the new stabilization plan, which
makes it necessary for a worker
from his employer or the VINO be-
fore he may switch jobs.
Neither are the farmers bound by
tight restrictions on raising or low
ering salaries, Dixon declared.
Thus farmers may offer higher
salaries than can be paid under
the law by other employers of es-
sential industries, Turing many
workers onto the farm for no avail
ability certificates are necessary for
farm workers.
FinneT's argument for the sign
up of essential employers other than
farmers under the revised stabiliza-
tion plan was the absence of any
argument against it,"
The plans are worked out locally

Further development of

recommended Friday by the
Senate appropriations COM
mittee as part of a program
to Immediately utilize public lands
to increase war food production
and subsequently to provide oppor-
tunity of settlement to service men
and industrial workers after the
war
The committee wrote into the In
terror Department appropriations
bill for 1914 funds amounting to
$38,000,000 to carry on such devel-
opment work and directed the bu-
reau of reclamation to construct ad-
ditional facilities to irrigate arid
lands and put public lands into food
production.
FURTHER WORK
Along with additional develop
ment of the All-American canal the
committee recommended further
work on the Gila, Arizona, project.
With more than half a million
acres of land in Imperial Valley
currently served by the All-Ameri-
can canal the service could be ex-
tended to irrigate an additional

is chiefly government owned and

Reporters pursuing Chaplin and
l8-year-old Oona O'Neill from the
Santa Barbara courthouse, said he
eluded them by driving 80 miles an
hour. The OPA said it had had
scores of phone calls and wires
wanting to know how Chaplin could
get gas for honeymoon trip when
the callers couldn't get gas to go to
work.
From Cuernavaca, Mexico mean
time, came a report that two Los
Angeles lawyers were searching for
records of Chaplin's divorce from
Miss Goddard. They already had
examined Cuernavaca's books, they
said, and went on to Cuautla.
Miss Goddard obtained a decree
from Chaplin in Juarez, Mexico,
June 4, 1912. saying they had been
married six years before in Canton,
China.
Purpose of the investigation was

The committee, which meets In
Merced today, adopted the resolu-
ton before hearings were completed
because the preponderance of evi-
dence already submitted showed
residents of California were strong

were sent to D. S. Meyer, national
director of the War Relocation Au-
thority, and all members of the leg
islature.
UNDER STUDY
Points still under study were the
relocation of Japanese after the
war, dual citizenship and violations
of the alien land law.
The committee based it's resuIu-
tion on the belief that there was
no test whereby loyalty of any in

coast would permit infiltration of
alien enemies.
