Texans To Decide On
Election Procedure
City Building Continues...
It appears that Cameron's building program will
continue into 1958.
Recent announcement of availability of $87,750 for
Cameron’s long-rwaited armory means that building
is on the upbeat again in Cameron.
The armory has been abuilding for several years.
Chamber and civic leaders some years ago concluded
a successful drive to provide the 20-acre site for the
Milam Gua»d unit.
Then the present structure was built. The new arm-
ory will be 108 by 116 feet in size and house Battery
C, 649th Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battalion.
It will be another welcome addition to Cameron s
growing list of ihw buildings. And it will represent a
confident investment in the future of the city.
It takes a good - sir.ed unit to use the facilities
being constructed lor the Milam Guard unit. ( ameion
has that 80-man unit. And it would seem that pros-
pects for growth would be considered in final approv-
al of $87,750 for construction of a new armory.
It is safe to assume that Cameron’s Guard unit will
need room to grow and Cameron will have an additi-
onal meeting place for community functions.
All told, the addition of the new armory Will be a
handsome one for Cameron. It means much to Cam-
eron and Milam County to get the facilities that are
conducive to continued growth.
THE LITTLE RIVER
PHILOSOPHER
Sage Shares Ike’s Problems
In Solving Financial Cares
Dear editar: ,
Everybody in the country has
been wondering when things are
going back to normal, and I wish
to let you know I have now found
an unmistakable sign that normal
times are about here.
Last night I read an article in
a newspaper which I picked up in
town earlier in the day it was
blowing along the street and any
time a man can help beautify the
town and get a free newspaper at
the same time he has to be
mighty lazy not to do it.....that
convinces me things are now ap-
proaching normal.
According to this article, the
Secretary of Commerce in Wash-
ington said he saw "some fairly
rosy prospects ahead for the eco-
nomy.” He said the "economic
picture will be much brighter later
this year. Employment has been
rising, business ilidiCaCiny‘a#e „
bit better, and a spirit of revived
confidence is beginning to appear.”
In the same article, the Director
of the Budget said beginning July
1 the government will go in the
red about two billion dollars.
If this isn't prosperity busi-
ness picking up and the country
going further in debt.....I’ve
never seen it.
What this proves is that in the
final analysis there’s nothing
wrong with installment buying. It’s
only installment paying that keeps
a man’s nose to the grindstone.
Personally, I don’t know whet-
her the recession is disappearing
or not, probably it is, and that
suits me fine, but what I have
decided after considerable thought
is that economics is like the hu-
man body. A man can get sick
occasionally for no reason at all,
and while the doctors stand around
stroking (heir chfhs and calcula-
te whafs wrong with him, he
suddenly starts to get better and
nobody knows lor sure what caus-
ed him to get sick in the first
place and v/hat got him well, whet-
1 her it was the medicine or just
the natural course of events or
the thought of a long hospital bill.
There may be people in this
country who really know what
causes a recession and what cures
it, but if there are they’re sure
keeping quiet.
Yours faithfully,
J. A.

AUSTIN—During coming months
Texans will ponder and argue the
wisdom of adopting sweeping chan-
ges in election procedurea.
If adopted, the changes recom-
mended by Gov. Price Daniel
would alter campaign procedures
more drastically than anything
since the Terrell election law be-
came effective over a half cen-
tury ago.
Governor Daniel's proposals are
(1) to abolish precinct conventions
and, instead, elect county conven-
tion delegates at the first primary
and <2> to hold primaries in May
and June instead of July and Au-
gust.
Such ideas arc grist for mills
that grind slowly. They'll be de-
bated, pro and con, at the party
conventions this summer and, pro-
bably, again by the Legislature
next year.
At the June 9 meeting of the
State Democratic Executive Com-
mittee. the resolutions sub-corami-
tee will recommend support oT the
changes. Sub-committee members
announced they agreed with the
governor that a direct primary
vote in the precincts would insure
wider participation and do away
with the "ugly contests, rump de-
legations and bitterness" that have
characterized Texas party politics
all the way to the national con-
vention.
Support from the State Commi-
ttee was to be expected since a
majority of its members are friend-
ly to Governor Daniel.
Opposition is anticipated, down
the line, from people who regular-
ly participate in precinct meet-
ings. They - or at least some of
them - contend the neighborhood
gatherings provide the citizenry
with a sort of democratic "town
hall” experience. Others object to
earlier elections on the grounds
they would prolong the "lame
duck ’ period for defeated incum-
bents.
Defenders of the anti-precinct
convention plan declare it’s the
next logical step in a long-range
trend. Before the adoption of the
Terrell election law, state officials
were nominated by political par-
ties at their state conventions. Be-
ginning in 1907 voters were given
a more direct say by the use of
one primary and a convention vote
if no candidate received a primary
majority. In 1918 this was amend-
ed to provide the present two-pri-
mary system.
“Code” Forthcoming
SDEC’s resolutions committee
also promised to meet DOT’s chal-
lenge for a “code of ethics” for
conducting party conventions.
The Committee said it did not
feel privileged to dictate proced-
ures from the state level, to pre-
cinct and county official, "the
overwhelming majority of whom
can be trusted to function.....with
the highest ethical considerations,”
But it said it would recommend
a “declaration of principles which
will insure.....majority determi-
nation” at state conventions.

crats of Texas led by Mrs. Frankie

Anti-Trust Inquiry
When a city or county needing
supplies ui equipment -gets sealed
bids identical to the fraction of a
cent, there’s a possibility the bid-
ders got together beforehand and
agreed on a jacked-up price.
Atty. Gen Will Wilson says that
his office has nad several reports
'of identical bidding. He is making
an intensive investigation. Suite
will be filed after evidence is com-
plete. probably within six to eight
weeks.
Contracts under study involve
sales of electric transformers, ch-
lorine for swimming pools, and
lime and oyster shell for street
topping.
A conspiracy among bidders to
raise prices can cost taxpayers
in the multi-millions, Wilson com-
mented.
Holes la The Nett
With the state facing a sizable
deficit net year, the Senate gen-
eral investigating committee is
seeking to discover if the state
is getting all the tax money due it.
Members of the State Comp-
troller’s Department, chief collect-
ing agency, told the committee, in
effect, that the collecting net was
a little skimpy for the potential
catch.
They’re way behind in their au-
dits of large companies, said Hou-
ston area supervisor Harvey J.
McKinzie. Reason, he said, is that
low state salaries have caused the
staff to dwindle from 14 in 1948
to 5 at present.
An audit, said McKinzie, some-
times results in recovery of large
sums of additional tax money.
