State Republican And Democratic
Place Vftter Appeal In Platforms
By VEEN ST ANFORD
Texas Frets A»oelation
AUSTIN, Tex. — .State Repub-
lican and Democratic parties
have put their appeals to Texas
voters In writing -•■» via the plat-
forms drafted at their separate
conventions last week.
Democrats, party veterans
said repeatedly, "wrote the most
progressive planks ever.”
Republicans put emphasis on

Antelope Permits
Will Be Issued
AUSTIN — Texas Parks and
Wildlife Department Officials
have Issued permits to landown-
ers in the Permaln Basin khd
Trahs-Pecos areas for the har-
vesting of approximately 945
buck pronghorns during the
nine-day season beginning Oc-
tober 3.
Regional Wildlife Supervisor
Jack Parsons said the final
number of permits is subject to
slight revision at a later time.
A total of 829 of the permits
was issued In seven counties of
the Trans-Pecos, with Brewster
and Presidio Countieq getting
the major share, at 259 and 349
respectively.
In the Permain Basin area the
county permit distribution is as
follows: Borden, 58;- Garza, 13;
Glasscock, seven; Howard. 3;
Iron. 10; Midland. 13; Matched,
8; Reagan, 4: and Sterling, 2.
Extremely dry conditions pre-
vailed in the Trans-Pecos dur-
ing the past Winter and spring
which resulted Inf a slight pop-
ulation decline of mature prong-
horns. However, a good fawn
crop and welcdme summer rains
have bolstered the herd.
Sportsmen who have n?t yet
made arrangements with a
landowner who is to receive per-
mits should do so immediately
as many hunters have reserved
hqntlng rights well in advance
of the season.

plctz the trades and professions
of some of Berlin’s 2.1 million
inhabitants, including such col-
orful examples as an organ
grinder and chimney sweep.
The pavilion visitor will feel
he has spent several days in
Berlin, after the conducted and
narrated sight - seeing tour
which includes such famous
sights as the Brandenburg Gate
and Dahlem Museum. The five-
minute color film tour uses a
highly complicated but perfectly
synchronized multiple - picture
technique, and enables the visi-

he could IT he actually spent
days In Berlin. Many other ex-
citing displays are contained
within the Pavihon, and all are
eye-catching as well as inform-
ative.
Senator Horst Orabert, secre-
tary for federal affairs In the
Berlin’government and a mem-
ber of the upper house of the
Federal Parliament In Bonn,
will be on hand to open the
pavilion along with other digni-
taries from Berlin.
