A DEPRESSING OUTLOOK

cannot fail to add to the uneasiness
Whfch Europe has felt since the
last German parliamentary elec-
tions.
bafbre the I.iepzig can not fail
to add to the uneasiness which
ldurope has felt since tho’Iast Ger-
man parliamentary elections.
In his speech, Htttor set forth
just what he proposes to do, if and
when he gains .power in Germany.
His program is not reassuring.

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 30 — (U.PJ Selection of two members of the
State Highway commission will be the first major test of the new state
adminlstraion, If Ross S. Serling, Democratic nominee wins in the Nov-
ember election for governor.
By becomng governor, Sterling will vacate the* chairmanship of the
State Highway commission. Tyler also expires next January.
The situation is being watched with more than unusual interest In
political circles, for in naming his highway commissioners, Sterling will
have to meet the challenge of opponents n the recent campaign, who
declared for1 an elective instead of an appointive highway commission. (______ .. _ _

Moody make one appointment. I Next Monday will be mj^lonavy
he does not resign, Sterling will | day Ul0 clrcles and LSil.ii Aid
have to appoint a majority ol the | vvjj[ meet together in the'hohio of
highway commission. He will
then be held directly responsible
for things tlie commission docs to
which people or communities may
object. If he names only one
member, tlie majority of the com-
mission will have been named by
Governor Moody, who would then
bear tlie responsibility.
By serving until January, Ster-
ling, as a highway commissioner,
will also have to make promises
and adopt plans which as governor,
he may later be asked to insist
that succeeding commissioners
carry out. That might destroy tlie
independence of tlie highway com-
mission, Former governors have
been wrecked politically largely
through tlie highway department.
Supposed To Be Scattered
Geographically, the highway com-
mission is supposed to be scattered.
Now there is a commissioner from
Houston, Abilene and Tyler. With
the governor from Houston, Steil-
ing could npt well select a rom-
niissioner from Houston also,
which has had its turn at the place
in him. San Antonio, El Paso, Fort
Worth anil Dallas all will bo seek-
ing one of the places.
Whether the continuance of W.
It. Ely of Abilene on the board
will kill El Paso’s chance remains
to be seen. If Cone Johnson is
not reappointed. Blast Texas will
be claiimiig'Vfilt4f$ftt* io-vmi of the
places.'Ban Antonio, which played
a big part in Sterling's election al-
so will be clamoring.
The governor has also to please
tlie senate, which confirms his ap-
pointees.
Mucli ol' the success of Sterling's
administration will depend on his
highway commission. Austin is
waiting to see if he will take the
full responsibility or divide it with
Governor Moody.
