10 Ask Federal Help

Rice growers in Imperial
Valley wound up their an
nual battle with the Mexican
tree duck this week and be-
gan to make plans to prevent
other species of duck and black
birds from damaging the crop after
it comes up in the fall.
They were joined in the battle
by committee of California rice
growers, fish and game officials.
and California Farm Bureau mem
bers who conferred with federal of
flclals on means of preventing
damage to rice by ducks and other
waterfowl.
Arthur Hoffman,, president of
Imperial Rice Growers association
said that approximately 10000 to
10000 of the Mexican tree ducks
were on hand to eat the seed when
growers planted this month by
scattering the seed from planes.
The growers used flickering lights
and what shotgun shells they could
get to shoot over the fields to
frighten the ducks away and give
the seed time to settle into the
soil.
SEEN EVERYBODY
I'VE have been to see everybody
connected with any bureau which
might help us to prevent rice loss
by ducks and other fowl. "Hof-
mann said. We asked for 90 cases
of shells to use in frightening the
ducks during the planting season.
The amount was cut to a third of
that amount. The up-shot was that
the federal government allotted rs
shells per grower per season. I

IL. D. Asked Of
Possibility Of
New Mesa Deal

If the Imperial Irrigation
district is successful in de-
veloping it's first project on
the East Mesa into a profit
able enterprise possibilities
exist for the opening up of a vast
area in the same district but north
of the All-American canal in the
near future, district officials re-
vealed Wednesday.
The U. S. Bureau of Reclamation
has asked district leaders whether
they would be interested in the de-
velopment of large tract of land
north of the canal, Evan T. Hewes
district president. revealed.
The attitude of district directors
on such a project would depend
entirely on the success of the initial
venture, however, Hewes said.
10000 MORE ACRES
The initial East Mesa project calls
for the development of 10000 acres
of land east of FL Centre and be-
tween the canal and the Mexican
border.
The district sought to lease the
land from the reclamation bureau
last spring and had planned to
suitcase it to private farming
operators. The original contract
submitted by the bureau did not
prove satisfactory, however. and
was returned with a request that
it be amended to suit the desires
of district chiefs. A revised con-
tract has not as yet been received
by the district.
At the time the district first
started negotiations with the re-
clamation bureau number of far
mers were ready and willing to in
vest in the area, Hcwes said, adding
that some of them may have be-
come disinterested because of in
erased difficulties in obtaining
manpower and equipment.

King Boris of Bulgaria bitterly

not unexpected if Italy capitulates
