Sfock Market Finally Going With Predictions
™, AUSTIN (AP) - Senators,
laced with a poor reception to
their initial rediitricting plan,
may make a fresh start today.
Sen. Loui* Crump of San Suba
predicted quick acceptance of
his proposal to enlarge the Sen-
ate from 31 members to 19, ex-
tend terms from four years to
Six, and reouire all senators to
> run for re-election in 1966.
An earlier proposal, adopted
last month, provided for identi-
cal membership and terms, but
allowed all but five incumbents
immunity from facing voters
b«ext year. • »>
Sen. George Parklrouse of Dal-
las opposes It.
Since senators voted for a 39-
member upper house, Speaker
Ben Bames has expressed con-
cern over whether federal
courts would accpt the auto-
matic re-election provision.
Some senators also said the
provision might weaken the pro-
posal's chance of-acceptance by
voters July 24.
If voters reject the proposal,
senators could be'left without a
redistricting proposal less than
two weeks before the court-
order reapportionment deadline
of Aug. 2.
A Senate.subcommittee meets
today with various district-at-
torneys to discuss strengthening
the hot check law.

had seemed unsold by aU the
optimistic predictions for busi-
ness. But in the first two days of

to have responded finally ,'o the

assurances that ' some of the
threats to continuing prosperity
may be more apparent than
