Thousands of Germans, cut off

Main Problems

Imperial county potential
ly is one of the best dairying
areas in California, but it is
being undersold to interests
elsewhere in the state.
That was the consensus of dairy
men and Associated Chamber OF
Commerce men at meeting in the
Barbara Worth Hotel Thursday
afternoon.
Lack of protein feeds; too much
emphasis on making money in the
valley and then getting out; too
much difference in the prices PAID
for dairy farming and vegetable
farming lack of dairy interest IN
building good herds; lack of avail
able credit to those who wish to
start in the, valley; the selling down
of herds in the recent past, ana
greater export of dairying herds
than import were cited as major
reasons for the slowing down OF
the dairy farming program in I'M
perial county by these attending
the meeting.
EXPAND CRITICISMS
In addition the dairymen as a
group criticized what they branded
as apathy among Imeprial county
business people and the continual
negative craftsmanship of the
countys benefits to erstWhile local
as we'll as outside dairying inter-
eStS.
One dairyman said that one o.
the most serious reasons dairylng
has failed to become as important
an enterprise in the valley as IN
other localities is the lack of credit
advanced by the local banks based
on a mans ability. He also SAID
that citizens of the county contln-
ually were carrying the message to
the coastal areas that 1t gets too
hot in the summer, and 1t rains TOO
much in the winter, to make dairy
ing nattractive or profitable
business here. This type of mega
tive salesmanship has cost the val

Council. and Gus Rothe, in charge

discuss the general aspects OF the
dairying situation over the state.
Since 20 per cent of the food
consumed in this nation is dairy
products, the valley should increase
production, Mr.. Green said.
But the problem according to the
views expressed at the meeting has
many sides. First, other types OF
farming in the VS. filey are more

'Guesses' of
Military Heads

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.
(UP) "A new and more
closely coordinated informa
ton policy was adopted by the
government Friday to increase war
news TO the public and to stop high
military and civilian leaders from
expressing conflicting opinions on
such important matters as the
probable date on which the war
will end.
The new policy was announced
by War Information Director Elmer
Davis after it had been endorsed
by high officials representing the
White House, army, navy, War
Production Board, Selective Service,
and other leading government de-
partments and agencies.
Davis said it's aim was to increase
the flow of accurate and consistent
war news and to aid public under
standing of production, reconver-
sion. and employment problems. He
listed these principal essentials OF
the new policy:
Avoidance of speculation by
both military and civilian officials
regarding the probable termination
date of the war.
2-ExerciSe of great care in dis
cussion of the economic develop
ments to be expected before and
after the end of the war.
3-Avoidance by officials of any
discussion of activities for which
they are net responsible.
Full and accurate explanation
of policies in all public expressions
regarding war production shifts.
Announcement of the new policy
climaxed long criticism of the gov
ernment fer permitting high mill
tary or civilian officials to make
one statement on one day, only to
have others in equally high place
make a completely contradictory
utterance on the next.
Davis said Owl was cooperating
with the armed services to make
sure that news of military opera
tions reached the public as quickly
and completely as genuine consid-
erations of military security allow.

Writinq Letter

grand jury Friday that the famous
Hopkins letter." purporting to in
yolve him with Wendell L. Willkie s
campaign fer the Republican

forgery.
Hopkins spent 10 minutes before
the investigating body which is
trying TO find out who wrote the
mysterious m:sSive, copy of which,
was published in the book, "One
Man Wendell Willkie," by C. Nelson
Sparks.
Hopkins told reporters after
leaving the grand jury room that
the letter is forgery and I think

He refused, however, to ten re-
porters whether he had named the
man he suspects to the grand jury
Sparks, former mayor of Akron
O., told reporters Thursday tina.
even if the letter is a forgery, the
real underlying" issue in the case
is whether Hopkins is schemine
"to put Wendell Wlllkie over on the
American people" again as Republi-
can presidential candidate.
Sparks said publication of the
letter was "instigated' by Secre-
tary of Interior Harold L. Ickes, out
of enmity for Hopkins, and said he
believed that if the letter was
forged, sit was done at Ickes' sug-
geStion or request
