surprise that he was renOmnated for that
office on beth major tickets at the recent
consolidated primary. 1t was compll-
ment and tribute well deserved and
well rendered. Under the California cleo
tion law, tEa congressman will have no
opposition in the November election save
through the write-in system.

into existence two years ago under reap
portionment). Phillips has been watch
full of the interests of the three counties
comprising the district-Imperial, River
side and Orange. Furthermore he at once
shOulderad the responsibilities placed
upon a new member in the stride of a
veteran and consistently has voted the
way he believed the best interests of the
entire nation lay Neither has he shirked
or lodged roll calls wherein members
definitely are placed on record.
His outstanding services to the district,
among others. have been in connection
with his membership on the powerful
and highly important agricultural COM
mittee and presently on a special COM
mittee which, among other essential ac-
tivities, wa. a thorough investigation of
the guavule project in California. Here

POLISH COUNCIL RIFT

christian Science Monitor)
A conflict within the Polish govern
ment-in-eXile is apparently furthering
the possibility Of Polish-Russian agree
ment on border questions as no amount
Of pressure by the United States or Brit
ain could Each effort of Washington
or London to help toward solution of
this problem only intensified the dis
agreement and even ruffled the waters
of Allied unity.
But now. dissatisfaction has arisen
among Socialist and Peasant party rep
resentatives in the Polish National Coun-
Gil. partly because Of the way the Minis
ter of National Defense handled charges
of anti-Semitism in the Polish army.
More than this is involved in the dispute,
which touches questions in the Polish
Constitution and may not therefore be
settled by mere resignation of the De-
Tense Minister The main development
is. however. that the Socialist members
seem determined to oust General Sosn-
kowski ALSO as another heir of the tradi-
ton which began with Marshal Pilsudski
and of which one of them said, We want
that to be finished with
The dispute divides the Council on left
wing and right-wng lines. Some OF the
right wingers, and especially General
Sosnkowski. are the very persons with
whom Moscow has refused to deal. Hints
that important concessions beyond the
Curzon line may be made to Poland
that. indeed the city Of IWoW may be
returned to the POleS-cOme at a time
to suggest that a Polish government
which Moscow felt it could trust would be
able to get better border terms than have
heretofore been indicated.

Senate Passes
Bill

Final action came after Senator
Bennett c. Clark ID Missouri,
tried unsuccessfully to bar an in
crease of more than S3,500,000 for
general investigations by the bu-
reau of reclamation. The house had
voted $375,000 for these investiga
tions but the senate appropriations
committee added $3.50 900 for con-
tinuation of investigations and pre-
paratiOn for construction of Mis-
souri, basin projects.
AS the bill goes back to the house
for its concurrence. it carries $780,
900 for construction of power lines
for the Central Valley Water prof.
ec5 in California
1t incluced $2,535 600 in all for
the Central Valley project, includ-
ing $1,000,000 for the Kings river
project, and $1,200,000 for the Col
orado river development.
The bill now carries $S0O,0OO in
stead of the house-approved $685.
600 for continuing reclamation stud
les on the Colorado river develop
ment; and $1,000,000 instead of
Sl75,000 for investigating projects
in the four states of the upper
division of the Colorado develop
ment.
Other reclamation projects ap-
proved by the senate included
Parker Dam, Ariz., S350,000; Yu-
ma, AriZ., SGT 800.
The senate approved its appropri-
ations committees recommendation
that the house provision which
would have eliminated from in
terror department employment any
male between 18 and 80 years old
who received a draft deferment on
any grounds other than dependency

Ickes Maps Plon
On L.und Tracts

for use of federal water to irrigate
tracts in excess of l6O acres.
Ickes' program was an answer to
the so-calleG Elliott amendment to
the rivers and harbors bill now in
the senate. That amendment, spon-
sored by Representative Alfred j.
Elliott CD Cal, and approved by
the house, would exempt all Central
Valley land from the federal excess
lanes law which bars use of federal
project irrigation water on tracts
in excess of 100 acres.
One section of a bill submitted by
Ickes would authorize him to divide
all Central Valley lands into one
of three classifications:
!. Pre- project" lands land
which was irrigated prior to Aug
ust. 1897, when the project was
authorized as a fec eral reclamation
project. Such lands could receive
project water, without being af-
fected by the limitations of excess
land provisions of reclamation law,
for four years after first receiving
water. or after the close Of the war,
whichever is of later date. This
exemption could be extended for
another five years if the secretary
so determines.
2. All lands acquired by the fed
eral government for development
and resettlement in "family-sized''
tracts. Federal water will be used
for irrigation of all these lands.
3. All other lanes not now irri-
gated but which can or will be irri-
gated by water from the Central
Valley project Such land still
would be subject, in general, to the
eXcess-land laws limitation.
Ickes, however, would be author
lied by another clause OF the bill
to provide water for irrigation OF
any landS-regarc less Of the excess
land or other federal laws-if it
would promote production of agri-
cultural commodities in war time.
He said the program would pro-
vide water for the irrigation of some
/ $4,000 acres Of lane which is not
now irrigated.

OVERTIME PAY FOR
POSTAL EMPLOYEES
Sacramento Bee)

(Sacramento Bee)
In directing private industry to pay
time and a half for overtime, the federal
government looked right over the heads
of large group of its own workers, the
postal employees
Though the efficial work week for them
is five davs. tie postoffice workers have
been putting in six days weekly and fire.
uuently more than eight hours day at
overtime pay rates ranging from 69 to
sc cents per hour.
Postal employees claim this scale is
lower than the overtime pay for any
other comparable work. a fact reflecting
no credit upon the government.
Pending in congress is a measure by
Congressman Samuel A. Weiss of Penn
sylvania-H. r. R.4501-which would award
postal employees time and one half for
all overtime.
The bill should be passed.
This still would be little enough.
AS matter of equity the postal work
ers are entitled to the same overtime pay
consideration as workers in private in
dustry.
The public applauds the postal en-
ployes for keeping the mails moving eff

and other difficulties. but applause will

President Ralph Gallagher of the

quire government regiStration OF
Cartel contracts would create "a

In testimony prepared for his
appearance before a Senate judi
ciary subcommittee, Gallagher said
he was in full agreement with the
bills general purpose ito promote
the foreign trade and commerce OF
the United States"
However, he said, the bill as it
now stands is drawn SO loosely as
to impose an almost impossible
burden on both government and
industry.
Gallagher proposed that the bill
be amended to limit filing proVi-
sions to foreign trade agreements
by American firms which restrict
production and allocate territories,
fields or markets.
Trade secrets, prices and financial
terms whose publication might

100 YEARS AGO

1t is well to be reminded from time to
time that the world progresses, and GER
tain anniversaries often serve as such
reminders. We get too accustomed to so
many conveniences. in which few who
use them had any part in their start or
improvements We twist a button and on
come electric lights; turn another knob
and voice from across the world is
heard out of the air. And so on.
Today, May "a. marks the Tooth ami

Samuel F. B. Morse may be remembered
as TIE one who touched the magic key
of his marvellous invention. But we pause

wears until cables spanned the ocean al
ter MorSa's first message. And since
then-no end to the vaStneSs of his cre3-

ago in this office the teletvpe reeled off
a message to the effect that at certain
moment the telatype would click, key

And so it did No relays; no transcrb-
