WA1 can we do to help check this danger?
There several things which responsible citizen
do help avert the national catastrophe which return

l-Wake up the facts Crime thrves public apathy
By simply realizing and helping your neigbor to realize
the serious of the problem which faces you
far toward combating it.
q Don't buy liquor from bootegger in the black
market If you you may be risng death blindness and
you will be directly encouraging racketeers.
Report any law violations you witness to the
authorities Ii you have peudices against socaled tat
Ting" remember that organized criminals threaten
freedom and security in the way Japs Nazs You
wouldn't hesitate to 'tattle" on one of them.
4-Support lawenforcement agencies whether federal

funds maintain experienced at least in the key posi-
tons The nations police need all the help give them
s. Combat juvenile delinquency from the youngsters
growing up that the underworld will most of its
recruits Make that your children receive the training
and opportunities which will mould them into decent law
respecting citizens.

Downey Forced
To End Tour:
Wife Falls III

Senator Sheridan DoWney cut his
visit to Imperial Valley short be-
cause illness of his wife in Los An
geles made it imperative for him to
return home Thursday night.
He did, however, tour the Colo
RADIO river installations and the
Mexican territory in the vicinity of
San Luis. What he saw, he said,
verified the word picture given
him of the disastrous effects the
governments treaty with Mexico
would have on the people of Cali
fornia and Arizona.
Officials of the Imperial Irriga-
ton district and engineers ex-
planned the effect the carrying out
of the treaty allocating 100000
acre feet of Colorado river water
to Mexico every year would have on
district properties.
During the tour the group visited
district installations at Pilot Knob
the All-American spillway and
power site, lockwood and Hanlon
gates and the country below San
Luis in Mexico.
Senator Downey will present the
facts obtained on the tour to the
senate foreign relations committee
in Washington to be used at a
hearing before the treaty goes to
the senate for ratification.

100000 Germans
Strive for Anzio

ALLIED HEADQU.AR-
TIERS, Naples, Feb. 25. (UP)
Bitter patrol fighting and
increasingly-violent artillery duels
ragged all along the Anzio front
Friday as allied spokesmen indicat-
ed that the Germans have built
up their striking force to possibly
100000 men for third major on
slaught on the 5th army beachhead.
Picked Nazi troops, attacking in
waves of 200 men, struck twice a.
the allied lines south and southwest
Of Aprilia in an attempt to open
a breach through which the Ger
man armor could break out onto
the main highway to Anzio.
American and British infantry
men stood their ground and moved
down the advancing Germans,
smashing both attacks before they
were well under way.
Throughout Thursday night Ger
man patrols tried time and again
to infiltrate the 5th army posi-
tions around Aprilia, but headquar-
tiers spokesmen said that "our
troops are clearing up these nuis-
ance penetrations."
