Some members of the committee nave been told

THERE IS ONE thing thin piece will force you to
admit, even If you don't want to.
We play no favorites.
We have a ercom-colored office car that the folk*
allow ua to drive on occasion back and forth to
work.
We parked it in a parking meter spot the other
day fully intending to move it in a few minutes.
We did move it but not until a parking ticket was
neatly placed thereon.
A few days later my wife let me use her car. We
parked it In front of the office and promptly forgot
it. The officer didn’t He tagged it.
And Saturday morning Mary let me use her 1960
model she drives to school in on occasion. It was
ticketed in short order.
So In a week we had seen each car we operated
come within the foils of the city's traffic ordinance.
It'S been several days since we borrowed The Sun
truck from the circulation. We note its presence each
day but dare not borrow it. It's cheaper to walk than
to spend that buck we know it will cost
If we ask you to borrow your car. please do us a
favor and refuse permission.
It isn't the use of the car you need fear It's our
fear of the law that should cause you, we hope, to
make some excuse for not being kindly disposed to-
ward the req jest.
half buck every two years In taxes, but we don’t
believe the average motoriat will mind.
At present you have to pay 50 cents every other
year to get your driver's license renewed.
His bill would raise that fee to $1. There are sev-
eral other minor changes his bill provides.
It won't coat anybody but a fo' bit piece, but it
will give Texas about $2,000,000 more a year. And
It will enable the state to add from 200 to 300 new
highway patrolmen in the state.
We hope Rep. Baker shakes your pants pocket for
that extra hot half. It will be a small Investment
in highway safety that can pay huge dividends.
HUNTING FOR FAST BUCK
WHAT WILL THEY try next for that fast buck?
The latest is for two Imposters to go around under
the guise of electrical inspectors and calling 0
Baytown people.
They "Inspect” the electrical installations and the
charge a 110 fee.
If Roy Montgomery's "Inspectors" can find the.-
fakers, they will do some of their future lnspec
tlons at the city’s jail.
If one of these new "scientists’’ call at your horn
you should make tracks to the telephone and cr
the police station.
NEWS FOR DOCTORS
{■TATE REP. R. W. (Bob) Baker, who got his early
training |n Baytown schools, csdled the other day
to let us know that the conclusion we reached about
his reaction to the naturapath licensing bill was
correct. He did oppose the measure, even though a
committee over which he presides did give it a fav-
orable report
Baker told 11s the bill reached the floor of the
house but that by a big majority the bill was sent
to the state affairs committee, and there he thinks
the measure will languish for the remainder of the
session.
We report these findings for the benefit of Inter-
ested Baytown doctor* who have to a man opposed
the legislation.

NEW YORK — Construction began this month of
the theater at Stratford, Conn,, that is designed to
be a permanent seat for production of the plays of
Shakespeare and the training of actors in the clas-
sical tradition.
The American Shsikespeare Festival Theater and
Academy is still about $200,000 short of its fund
goal, but enough money has been raised to warrant
going ahead with the project. It is hoped that the
theater will be ready for a play festival this summer.
Designed by Edwin L Howard of Westport, Conn.,
the theater will be an octagonal structure and, in
thii sense, reminiscent of Shakespeare's own thea-
tre, the Globe in London, but here the similarity
ends.
It will be a completely modern building with all
conveniences of the latest theatrical equipment. It
will have a flexible stage with greater facilities for
repertory than any other in the United States.
In order to break down the barrier between the
audience and the actors, there will be a unique fore
Housatonic River. On the same site there is a large
14-room mansion, dating back to 1786, which will be
used as the academy or school of acting Graduates
of drama schools and professional actors will be giv-
en a special three-month course in classical acting
The theatre will be a national institution and op-
erate as a non-profit educational foundation.
Among leading stars who have expressed their
willingness to appear in the festival, w hen they are
available, are Maurice Evans, Deborah Kerr, Kath-
arine Cornell, Faye Emerson, Jose Ferrer, Tyrone
Power, Katharine Hepburn, Madeleine Carroll, Nina
Foch, Basil Rathbone, Raymond Massey, Margaret
Webster, Viveca Lindfors, Constance Collier, Judith
Anderson, Leueen MacGrath, Betty Field, Lillian
and Dorothy Gish.

Success Secrets
Bv Elmer Wheeler
MADAME NATSUKO TSONISHI. of Forest Hills,
Iyong Island, arrived from Japan with her exporter-
importer husband less than a year and a half ago.
Now 6he is a successful teacher of flower arrang-
ing, quite by accident.
Dainty and pretty, Madame Isonishl learned flow-
er arranging at the age of 18 in the Ikonobo School
in Japan. One of the requirements of Japanese cul-
ture is that a lady learn this lovely art.
Madame Isonishi first used her knowledge as a
hobby, then to beautify her home after marriage.
She advised, through her Interpreter:
"Don’t crowd Use very few flowers. I use the basic
Japanese rudiments and try to adjust them to the
American home. First give the flowers a foundation.
They can be hanging from a wall, at the end of a
room, on a table in a vase.
'if the vase is going to be against the wall, as
on a Japanese altar, use very few flowers. Try to
achieve grace with the leaves and long stems Use
about nine stems at the most. If the vase is to be in
the center of the room, arrange the flowers so all
four sides are beautiful."
At present Madame Isonishi is teaching her stu-
dents the beauty of the use of pussy willows. She
stresses the grace of the curving of each stem.
When she selects her vase the plans the arrange-
ment, she first bends the willow to make an attrac-
tive contour. Then she centers flowers around the
base "to give volume." She advises:
"When using a lot of branches scatter your flow-
ers around the vacant places to fill the gaps. Flower
colors depend on the color of the vase being used.
For a light vase — vivid flowers. With a vivid col-
ored vase —for instance, white chrysanthemums.
Color is to enhance the beauty of the contour. It is
the shaping of the branches that is important."
But Madame Isonishi really revealed her success
with flowers when she said seriously:
"Women will find spiritual life from the grace of
arrangements, and from the beauty of the flowers."
