DOVER, Del.—State Rep. Thomas
A. Kellum wants to tax bachelors
who have passed their thirtieth birth-
days.
His bill proposes a $100 annual
levy on bachelors between 30 and 35,
$150 for those between 35 and 40, and
$200 for all over $40.
“There would be no necessity for
further increases,” he said, “because
by this time all bachelors would un-
doubtedly have decided it was cheap-
er to marry.”

FRANKFORT, Ky. — Kentucky’s
chain store tax, bringing in about
$276,000 a year revenue, was held in-
valid Tuesday by the state’s highest
court.
State officials said the Court of
Appeals probably would be asked to
grant a rehearing and that the case
might reach the United States Su-
preme Court.
The state court declared the classi-
fications were unreasonable and arbi-
trary. The act, passed in 1934 and
amended at succeeding Legislatures,
graduated the tax according to the
number of stores operated in the
state under one management.

SHERMAN.—-The prospect of reg-
istering about 5,000 cars for 1939 in
the next nine days faces Tax Deputy
George Schumacher, due to the fail-
ure of the car-owning public to heed
warnings to register their cars early.
For the past several days a large
group of car owners has clustered
about the tax windows in the coun-
ty building, with two deputies work-
ing at feverish sp(eed to serve all the
registrants.
It appeared Wednesday noon that
about 3,000 cars would be registered
by Wednesday night. In Denison,
Guy Cooke is facing the same rush of
owners to register their cars at the
last minute. Licenses have to be
bought and placed on cars by April 1.

(Editor's note: The following ar-
ticle was written by Emmett Tiner,
senior student at Texas A. & M. Col-
lege, who did practice teaching in the
vocational agriculture department of
Whitewright High School last week.)
“Why is the President stationed be-
neath the rising sun?” asked the ad-
visor, Mr. Cunningham, directing his
inquiry to the vice president of the
Whitewright F. F. A. Chapter.
“The rising sun is a token of a new
era in agriculture . . . .” replied
Vice President Floyd Everheart.
This was part of the routine cere-
mony for opening the meeting of the
Whitewright Chapter of Future
Farmers held in the Vocational Agri-
culture Building Tuesday night,
March 14, The purpose of the called
meeting was to discuss plans
holding the annual Father and
Banquet and to select
speaker for the occasion
scheduled for Friday night,
24.
The Father and Son Banquet is
one of the many objectives set up by
the Chapter at the beginning of the
school year that will be executed be-
for the school year ends. Commit-
tees, composed of members of the
Chapter, are appointed by the presi-
dent. The committee members have
the sole responsibility of carrying out ently had been left for them
these objectives. In doing so, they clump of weed near the place where
obtain valuable experience in leader- they were working. “Covering” the
ship, in association with other mem-
bers, and in cooperating with fellow
students. Thus the students in Voca-
tional Agriculture have the opportu-
nity to develop qualities of leader-
ship, of responsibility, and of de-
pendability. The main purposes of
the F. F. A. Chapters are to develop
leaders in the agricultural field, to
bring about organization of agricul-
tural workers, and to secure better
cooperation among the various agri-
cultural groups.
The work of the F. F. A. Chapter
together with the students’ super-
vised practice program, a program in
which the boys apply improved
farming practices on the home farm,
does truly justify the symbol of the
rising sun—a token of a new era in
agriculture.
The agriculturalists have long suf-
fered from a lack of leadership and
especially from a lack of organiza-
tions to fight for the rights of the
farmers. Now that farmers are suf-
fering from the most severe and pro-
longed depression in agriculture that
this country has ever witnessed, there
is a drastic need for organization and
cooperation among the farmers. The
farm youths are rising to the need of
the hour through the F. F. A. Chap-
ter.
Beginning Monday, April 3rd, and
■continuing through Friday, April
7th, a union service will be held in
the local picture show at 3 o’clock
each afternoon. These services are
being planned by the pastors of the
Central Christian Church, First Bap-
tist Church, First Methodist Church
and First Presbyterian Church who
are cooperating in the plans for a
pre-Eastei’ revival campaign. The
pastors will alternate in preaching at
these services. James Jernigan will
lead the singing.
Each night during this time there
'will be simultaneous services in these
churches, beginning at 7:30 o’clock.
The pastors will preach in their re-
spective churches.
Interest is increasing in this united
effort and a good attendance is pre-
•dicted. The public is invited to all
union services and to theii’ respective
places of membership or interest

guard with the pistol, they took his
rifle, then went to the highway,
where they stopped a motorist.
The other convicts in the break
were Jodie T. Lloyd, sentenced to life
imprisonment for robbery; Dolph
Tuck, whose testimony aided in the
prosecution of the late Raymond
Hamilton; Arthur L. Brown,
tenced to life imprisonment ;
habitual criminal, and Harold
ton, burglar. Cooper is under a 70-
year sentence for forgery.
After the escape Tuesday radio
stations broadcast a description and
license number of the Plymouth se-
dan the convicts were driving. The
car remained parked in front of the
telephone office here for six hours
Wednesday, apparently without any-
body recognizing it. To avoid a
crowd of curiosity seekers, city offi-
cials kept quiet about having the
convict, and most people knew noth-
ing about it. Some of those who did
knbw about the surrender thought
Cooper had already been taken away
about noon. When the prison car
drove in, however, a crowd gathered
at the city offices to see what they
could see.
It was reported on the radio
packed up and left. She told them to
put an ad in the newspaper when
they decided they could be good.
They ran the house for a week,’but
finally decided that home wasn’t the
same when mother was away. Mrs.
S. came home, her victory complete.
She was asked whether her experi-
ment in carrying out her oft-repeated
threats to leave had been successful.
“Well,” she mused, “the oldest boy
is washing dishes and the youngest in the development of aircraft and in son County office of the farm
is drying them. The girl is cleaning aircraft research, but we have
the bedrooms. What do you think?”
AUSTIN.—Licensing of real estate
dealers and sub-agents under a law
designed to oust unscrupulous
sellers, was voted favorably by
Senate State Affairs Committee
Tuesday.
Senatoi' Small of Amarillo, spon-
soring the bill, said it would author-
ize the secretary of state to add an-
other man to the blue sky division to
enforce licensing of dealers under
strict regulations.
E. B. Bynum Jr., representing real
estate interests, said Texas had be-
come a dumping ground for a num-
ber of “unprincipled renegades” and
estimated that 97 per cent of legiti-
mate real estate dealers favored the
legislation. It would provide for a
$10 fee for dealers and $5 for sub-
agents. Recommendations from three
reputable citizens of their communi-
ties would accompany the license ap-
plication.
George Burnham of Whitewright
and his brother, Ernest Burnham of
Van Alstyne, have invented, built
and patented a calculating road
building meter which they believe
has unlimited marketing possibilities.
George Burnham has had a work-
ing model of the meter in service on
his road grader for more than a week,
and he told a Sun representative yes-
terday that it is proving even more
valuable in his work than he antici-
pated.
The machine, a small, oblong, steel
box, is mounted in the cab of the
grader where the operator can watch
it. A dial is marked off in degrees of
angle from 0 to 45 on both the right
and left sides. A pointer controlled
by mechanism in the box operates as
the grader leans to either side, show-
ing the degree of angle at which the
I grader is operating. Another section
of the dial shows the degree of fall
from the top to bottom of the grade.
The pointer is controlled by a geared
pendulum in oil, operating on the
same principle as a spirit level.
Mr. Burnham has demonstrated the
meter to several contractors and en-
gineers, and all have been enthusias-
tic over its possibilities, he said.
Among them was Julian C. Feild,
well known Denison engineer.
Mr. Burnham conceived the idea of
the meter about four years ago. Aft-
er determining that there was no
similar device on the market, he en-
listed the aid of his brother, and to-
gether they have been working on it
until it has been perfected. A second
working model was completed this
week, and was placed on anoth-
er grader for thorough testing. They
plan to have about six working mod-
els on test as soon as they can be
built. No arrangements have been
made for manufacturing and selling
the machines, but they hope to inter-
est a manufacturer in the near fu-
ture.

Most of the charges entered on the
ledger were for staple groceries, such
as potatoes, beans, dried peaches,
sugar, flour, soda, starch, coffee, rice,
onions, etc., but tobacco was listed
about as often as anything else. It
must have been high in price, or the
old-timers used a large quantity of
it, for tobacco ranged all the way
from 50 cents to $5.00, with $1.00 be-
ing the average purchase price.
The accounts as a rule were small,
mostly under $50 for a period of sev-
eral months from late winter or early
spring until midsummer or fall. It is
impossible to determine whether the
old-timers all paid their accounts or
not, as the bookkeeper didn’t close
them in this ledger.
With an enrollment of more than
100, the training school at the Bap-
tist Church is making a strong bid to
lead the Grayson County Baptist
Association again this year. Last
year theJocal school led the entire
county in percentage attendance and
efficiency, winning both the banners
offered. To date, no other church
has a better record.
Eight courses are being offered:
Primary, two junior, two interme-
diate, one senior, and two adult. The
classes are meeting at 7:15 each eve-
ning with a special attraction to in-
spire all to be on time. At 8 o’clock
there is an intermission period with
a devotional and song service. The
last period ends at 9 o’clock.
A special call is being made for all
who will use their cars Sunday after-
noon to carry the 125 members who
will attend the rally at East Sherman
Baptist Church, to meet at the
church at 1:45 p. m. This is the final
rally of the week and will determine

SHERMAN.—The final court
sode in theft cases growing out of
“free automobile” subscription
test conducted about two years
by the Van Astyne Leader, was writ-
ten Tuesday when charges against
defendants were dismissed.
The theft charges against Scott
Fulton, publisher of the weekly
newspaper, were stricken off the
records by J. T. Suggs Jr., judge of
the Fifty-ninth District Court, on
motion of R. C. Slagle, district attor-
ney, on grounds of insufficient evi-
dence to convict.
Complaints were filed ^gainst the
publisher and his contest manager,
Dwight O. Whitley, after contestants
alleged unfair dealings.
Whitley was shortly afterward con-
victed by a jury and given
year suspended sentence,
two charges of theft against
were dismissed.

AUSTIN. — Open rebellion in the
Democratic state executive commit-
tee against Gov. Lee O’Daniel’s in-
dorsement of the sales tax will be
taken to the polls if the sales tax
amendment is submitted, State Exec-
utive Committeeman W. M. Hoffman
of Cleburne announced here Tuesday.
“The voters will turn the sales tax
down,” Mr. Hoffman predicted.
He expressed disappointment that
Governor O’Daniel, who until
Sunday repeatedly had declared op-
position to the sales tax, had now re-
versed his stand and given public in-
dorsement to it.
Favors Resources Levy
“I am convinced,” Committeeman
Hoffman said, “that my district will
vote three to one against the sales
tax, if it is submitted.”
Hoffman favored levying pension
taxes on natural resources.
He was one of at least half a doz-
en members of the state committee in
informal conferences here, which
without any specified object seemed
to be concerned with long-range sup-
jport of instructing Texas delegates
for John N. Gamer—another point of
opposition to Governor O’Daniel, who
supported a movement blocking an
indorsement of Garner at the recent
Mineral Wells meeting of the state
committee. Mrs. Frances Haskell Ed-
monson of San Antonio, woman co-
chairman of the state committee, was
among those attending the executive
committee conference here. She has
been active on behalf of Garner sup-
port by organized Texas Democracy.
A gunshot wound in his chest, J.
D. Kinzie, 60, was found at 2 p. m.
Tuesday lying on the floor of his ser-
vice station on Highway 160, seven
miles south of Whitewright and
rushed to St. Vincent’s Hospital,
Sherman, for treatment.
Pellets from a .12-gauge shotgun
had struck him a glancing blow,
fracturing two ribs, Deputy Sheriff
F. O. Mangrum said.
Mr. Kinzie had been talking to J.
F. and J. B. Tree, farmers living
nearby, and as they departed he said,
“Goodbye,” and walked back into his
station. The men had walked only a
short distance when they heard a
shot.
Rushing back they found Kinzie
lying face down on the floor, a shot-
gun with an empty catridge in its
chamber lying nearby.
SHERMAN. — A sharp rise in the
■cost of county government, due
largely to boosts in salaries and of-
fice expense, has during the past
three years taken a greater and
greater share of the taxpayers dollar,
a summary of auditor’s reports for
1936-37-38 reveals.
The officers’ salary fund last year
<lrew $23,000 from the general fund
and showed the greatest increase, to-
tal disbursements jumping from
$73,274.67 in 1936 to $81,144.61 in
1938.
Grayson County’s general fund on
Jan. 1 had a smaller balance than on
the same date last year, despite in-
creased tax income of nearly $8,000.
The fund had some losses in receipts,
such as a decrease in board of federal
prisoners from $6,342.70 to $3,473.60.
Beer license income increased from
$155.19 to $2,184.13.
The general fund balance on Jan.
1, 1938, was $32,998.63 and on Jan.
11 this year was $17,774.38. Total
general fund disbursements for the
calendar year 1937 was $98,352.50 as
compared to $100,280.30 for 1938.
Salaries Greater
Nearly all offices at the court-
house show pyramiding outlays for
salaries and expenses.
The auditor’s salary in 1936 was
$3,600; in 1937, $4,093.26, and in 1938,
$4,500. His assistants were increased
from one to three, at total salaries in
1936 of $3,975; in 1937 of $4,795.40,
and in 1938, $5,195.
The salaries of the four commis-
sioners were boosted from $5,100 in
1936, to $9,200 in 1937, and to $9,600
in 1938.
The county clerk in 1936 drew $4,-
354.13; in 1937, $4,750, and in 1938,
$4,750, and his deputies, $5,691.53,
$6,398.37 and $6,269.99 for the three
years, respectively. His office ex-
pense increased from $288.70, to
$388.90, to $435.55.
The county judge’s salary was $4,-
354.15 in 1936, and $4,750 in 1937-38,
and his office expense $340.68,
$350.64 and $373.14.
Clerk Added Deputies
The district clerk’s salary was $4,-
354.13 in 1936, $4,750 in 1937-38, but
his deputies’ salaries were increased
from $1,782.33 in 1936 to $2,915 in
1938. His office expense was $125.91,
$70.77 and $83.67 for the three years.
The assessor-collector drew in
1936, $4,354.13, and in 1937 and ’38,
$4,750. His deputy expense dropped
from $17,750.87 in 1936 to $17,533.99
in 1937 and to $17,030.42 in 1938.
The district attorney’s salary was
$4,354.13 in 1936; $4,750 in 1937-38.
His deputy salary expense $5,280 in
1936, $4,771.35 in 1937, and $5,510 in
1938. His office expense increased
from $309.47 in 1936 to $319.24 in
1937 and to $507.96 in 1938.
The sheriff’s salary rose from $4,-
354.13 in 1936 to $4,750 in 1937-38,
and his deputy salary expense also
pyramided from $11,060.30 in 1936
to $12,239.70 in 1937 and to $12,290 in
1938. His automobile expense like-
wise increased from $2,169.15 in 1936
to $2,550.75 in 1937 and to $3,837.81
in 1938, and his office expense from
$697.77 in 1936 to $791.31 in 1937, to
$973.69 in 1938.
The county treasurer was paid as
salary $1,100 in 1936 and $1,200 in
1937-38.
Salaries of the county engineer,
traffic officer, farm and home agent
remained about the same.

WASHINGTON. — The govern-
ment’s national advisory committee
on aeronautcis has informed Con-
gress that the United States no long-
er builds the best military airplanes
in the world—that position now goes
to Germany.
This was disclosed today when the
House appropriations committee
made public testimony by NACA of-
ficials seeking a $12,723,000 expan-
sion program for aeronautical re-
search.
“Today Germany is building better
planes for military purposes than we
are,” Dr. Vannevar Bush, vice chair-
man of the NACA, said. “That, of
course, is a thing we do not like to
admit. A few years ago, without
question, this country led the world
the years 1881 and 1882 of
number of customers.
The bookkeeper probably was ac-
curate in keeping the accounts of
customers straight, but he wasn’t so
very definite in listing the names.
While some of them had initials
listed, many others did not, just the
sirname being given, such as Cox,
Justice, Mays, Manus, Stephens. The
bookkeeper used a variation to dis-
tinguish customers, apparently, for in
the ledgei- appear such listings as
“Old Man Clemonds,” “Old Man Jor-
dan,” and “Old Man Skipworth.”
Most of those listed in the ledger
have long since passed on, and none
of them live here now. Some of the
names are:

AUSTIN.—Strong opposition to the
proposed road bond assumption bill,
now pending in the Texas Legisla-
ture, was voiced by the membership
of the Texas Good Roads Association
in meeting here last night.
They contended the plan was
sponsored by county judges to pledge
a portion of the state gasoline tax to
the payment of principal and interest
on bonds and warrants issued by
counties and road districts to finance
the construction of purely local roads.
H. W. Key was re-elected as super-
intendent of the Whitewright Public
Schools at a meeting of the Board of
Education Tuesday night. Mr. Key is
now serving his fifth term as super-
intendent, having assumed that posi-
tion at the beginning of the 1934-35
school year. Prior to that he served
two years as principal of the high
school.
Other members of the faculty will
be elected after the school board
election April 1, The Sun was in-
formed.
V. E. Cooper of Gilmer, one of the
five crippled convicts who Tuesday
, escaped from the Wynne prison farm '
near Huntsville, drove into White-
wright about 10 o’clock Wednesday
morning, went to the telephone of-
fice and telephoned the prison war-
den to send for him. He was in-
structed to wait here, and was taken
in charge by Mayor F. M. Echols, re-
maining at the city offices until noon.
Since the city offices are closed at
noon, Cooper was placed in the city
jail where he remained until prison
officials arrived shortly before 4
o’clock.
Cooper, who said he was forced
against his will to join the break,
said the other four men left him
when they met a confederate near
Sherman.
“We separated when we met an-
other car, apparently driven by a
friend,” he told Mayor Echols. “The
other men got in the other car and
threw away the keys in the car we
left Huntsville in. After the other car
left, I looked around in the weeds un-
til I found the keys, then I drove to
Whitewright.”

A bill to regulate landlord-tenant
relations was recently given favor-
able report by the committee on ag-
riculture of the Texas House of Rep-
resentatives, and will probably come
to the floor of the House for discus-
sion and vote.
The following announcement has
been received from C. M. Evans of
Dallas, regional director of the farm
security administration:
“The farm security administration
is not advocating any legislation in
regard to landlord-tenant relations,
but it is actively promoting discus-
sion of any and all suggestions that
hold promise of bringing about the
improvement in our tenancy system
which is so urgently needed. We be-
lieve that such discussion is result-
ing in practices that not only make
