Salary Boosts
Recommended
By Grand Jurors

Imperial county grand jurors
Monday filed with the board of su-
pervisors a report asking the state
legislature to make some changes
in the salaries of county employees.
The grand jurors recommended
that the district attorneys salary
remain at $4,000 as at present but
asked that the auditors salary be
boosted from $4,000 to $4,000 and the
supervisors salaries be increased
from $1,000 a year to $500.
In addition to the salary increase
for the supervisors the grand jurors
recommended that the legislature
provide for $50 month mileage for
supervisors driving en- county busi-
ness within the county boundaries,
irrespective of TIE number of miles
travelled; that county car be pro-
vided if desired in lieu of the $50
month, and that the supervisors
be allowed actual and necessary
expenses plus cents a mile if

House Committee Refuses
To Reduce Farm Pdyments

WASHINGTON, Mar. 20.
(UP)-The house appropria-
tions committee Tuesday re-
.jected an administration pro-
posal for scaling down agri-
cultural adjustment admin
istration payments by one
third on 1916 crops.
The action was disclosed in a
committee port recommending
1888 ,801,932 in appropriated funds
and loan authorizations for the ag-
riculture department during the
1916 fiscal year The total compares
with the current appropriation of
$753, ,439,524, exclusive of money for
overtime pay. Increased loan au-
thorizations for veterans and for
the Rural Identification Admins
tration accounted for the increase.
FIGURES GIVEN
1t was disclosed that the budget
bureau had proposed putting a
5000, 100000 ceiling on the 1916 AAA
crop program whereas a 5000, 100000
limit was in effect for 1945. Since
the higher ceiling was fixed by
statute, the committee said it con-
elders fixing new one in an ap-
preparation bill "of doubtful pro-
priety and disagrees as we'll with
the wisdom of fixing a ceiling as
low as $200,000,000'
Testimony made public showed
that Secretary of Agriculture Claude
r. Wickard explained that the the
ory behind the proposed reduction
was that as farmers became more
prosperous and learned soil con-
servation practices, they would be
willing to follow these practices
without government financial aid.
Wickard said he was not prepared
to say whether eventual elimina-
ton of the payments was contem-
plated.
VIA OPPOSES CUT
War Food Administrator Marvin
Jones, whose agency includes the
AAA, opposed the reduction.
In its overall recommendations,

u. S. Exp xperiments
On Mesa Tract

Best methods of farming the
Eastside Mesa when opened for en-
try are being worked out by the
federal bureau of reclamation on a
400-acre tract at drop No. 3 on the
All-American canal 20 miles east
of Calexico.
Results of development on this
plot will be used in determining
what will be done to the mesa lands
because the conditions are said to
be similar.
John K. Rohrer, acting construc-
ton engineer for the bureau of re-
clamation at Yuma, said the test
or experiment is being financed by
a federal appropriation for a pre-
development program for the mesa.
The 400 acres are included in
strip of government owned, unpat-
ented land lying between the ALL
American canal and the Mexican
border.
Rohrer said the government has
cleared the brush from the plot
and has leveled approximately so
acres. Half a dozen tractors and
other equipment are at work in get
Imperial Valley press., 1945-03-20

ting the desert land ready for plant
ing. The government also will build
the bitches for irrigation, fertilize
the soil, and plant the crop.
This summer the whole tract will
be planted to sudan grass to stabil-
ize the soil. Alfalfa will be planted
in October Rohrer explained that
it is the bureaus practice to plant
alfalfa on raw desert land because
it deposits nitrogen and humus in
the soil. He said no drainage install
lations will be required on the plot.
No buildings are to be built at
present, he said. The farming oper-
ationS will be carried on for time
by reclamation bureau employees who
will drive from Calexico or Yuma
to look after the work.
Later on, Rohrer explained. the
tract may be broken up into 100
acre tracts and possibly leased TO
farmers.
Rohrer asked the board Of super
visors to abant on the old Yuma
Calexico highway which runs
through that section. The board will
act on his request at the meeting
April 2.

Committee Named
For Housing
In Rural Areas

Housing in the unincorporated
areas in Imperial county Monday
were placed in charge of a county
housing committee in compliance
with request for assistance in
handling federal public housing de-
velopments in the rural areas.
Stanley Abel, area manager for
the public housing authority, asked

anah of CaleXico, G.. G.. Bennett of
El Centro, Henry Worthington OF

lie housing in rural areas while COM
mittees in the various cities, Abel
told the board members Monday
will act in similar capacity in con-
nection with public housing in mu-
nicipal areas.
Abel has been in Imperial county
at intervals for some months to
assist in making arrangements to
provide more housing to relieve the
shortage which became increasing
ly acute since the advent of large
numbers of servicemen's families.

Brawley Killing

BRAWLEY, March 20.-Two Mex
leans are being sought by police
and a Negro and Mexican are in
the sheriff's custody for question
ing in connection with the death of
Francisco SalaZar at 910 East I
street here early Tuesday morning.
Identity of the two men held for
questioning was not revealed by the
sheriff.
Salazar, Mexican about AS years
CID, was found bound, and gagged
and strangled to death with rec
bandana on a bed in the rear of the
building owned by Milton Green.
When he failed to report for work
on a building Green is constructing
A carpenter, Salazar had been en-
ployed by Green since last Septem-
ber.
He was seen leaving the o. K.
pool hall late Monday night in the
company of three other MexicanS,
one of whom has been picked up
by the police. Before he left the
pool hall he flashed some money
and had been drinking it was re-
ported.
Police believe it possible that he
may have been slugged elsewhere
and then taken to his sleeping
quarters.
The Negro had accompanied the
four men short distance, and the
other Mexican had left the Others
at his home. The two being sought
had accompanied Salazar farther
but could not be located today.

their beachhead on Panay, sixth

LONDON, March 20. CUP)-Nazi
military sources reported Tuesday
that two Russian drives We're con-
verging in the Czechoslovakia bor-
der area of southern SileSia and
threatening to trap the defenders
of the opper Oder valley south of
Oppeln.
Berlin reports CT brisk fighting
in the highly industrialiZed touth-
western corner off Silesia indicated
that Marshal Ivan S. Konev was
trying to blast open the approaches
to the Moravian gap, gateway to
southern Germany.
The renewed Silesian campaign
conceded with a flareup in Hun
gary, where ether Russian armies
were grinding through the German
defenses west of Budapest and
around Lake Balaton. The Nazis
acknowledged impressive Sovie t
gains on the route to Vienna.
Military observers noted that the
new activity on the south wing CT
the eastern front closely followed
forecasts that fanatical Nazis would
make their last fight in the noun
tains of southeastern Gel many. The
possibility was seen that Marshal
Stain now was moving to block
that eventuality.
Ernst Won Hammer Nazi radio
commentator, said Konev's First
Ukrainian Army was driving two
wedges from the east and north
into the area of Neustadt, four miles
from the Czechcslovak border and

Cleanup Drive

An intensive cleanup campaign,
city-wide, to remove fire hazards,
rubbish heaps, and the like, will be
launched in Ell Centre starting April
and continuing through April 8,
it was announced Tuesday by E.
Paul Ford, director of public works,
and Robert W. Hatton, member of
the city council and street commits
sioner, following conference with
Corn Reed, fire chief.
Residents are asked to pile rub
bish, old trees, discarded furniture
and trash in the street or alley
adjacent to their homes, where it
will be picked up by trucks of the
public works department. The fire
department will cooperate in full
in instances where it is advisable
to burn rubbish on the spot, and
in such cases will take the usual
fire precautions. Residents in parti-
cular are requested to rid their
premises of combustibles.
The removal of fire hazards in
Ell Centre, it is pointed out, not
only will safeguard homes and
other structures against fires, but
also will reduce fire insurance
rates.
Public works department trucks
to be utilized in the cleanup cam
paign will be augmented by other
trucks of the city now being used in
