ganize an Imperial county division
of the California State War Chest
association, it was announced Sat-
urday by Ben Herring, Chamber OF

cause of emergencies that arise
from time to time.
The state meeting, which was
held in Sacramento Wednesday, was
opened by Gov. Earl Warren, who
attended most of the session. War;
