AUSTIN. — Gov. Coke Stevenson
may have fashioned — acceptably to
the Texas Highway Commission and
to the County Judges who follow
Judge Merritt H. Gibson of Gregg
County—the key of compromise that
promises to throw back the bolts of
deadlock and open the door to a solu-
tion of the vexatious road bond as-
sumption controversy.
Stevenson did‘this Tuesday in his
first message to a Texas Legislature
with a recommendation which, if fol-
lowed by the Legislature, will com-
pletely reverse the long-established
policy of the highway department in
requiring counties to furnish right of
way gratis as a prerequisite to the
construction of state-built highways
within their borders.
Under Stevenson’s plan, agreed to
by the Highway Commission and
Judge Gibson, the state will not only

NEW YORK. — The National In-
dustrial Conference Board reported
Tuesday food costs rose 1.3 per cent
during August while the cost of liv-
ing generally was up .6 of per cent.
The private research organization
said that since August, 1940, the cost
of living had risen 4.7 per cent and
was 24.7 per cent above the depres-
sion low point of April, 1933. The
average still is 11.6 per cent below
the August, 1929, level, the report
said.
Rents, it said, rose .2 of 1 per cent
during August to a level 2 per cent
above August of last year. Clothing
prices advanced .9 of 1 per cent in
August, gaining 2.1 per cent over
August, 1940.
The union service held at the
Methodist Church Sunday night for
students and patrons of the public
schools attracted a large crowd. The
Baptist Church, Church of Christ and
Presbyterian Church dismissed their
services and all the pastors took part
in the union service.
Dr. B. Wrenn Webb, pastor of the
Presbyterian Church, presided. In-
vocation was by Dr. Alan Harvey-
Brooks, pastor of the Methodist
Church, and Rev. E. P. Wootten, pas-
tor of the Baptist Church, read the
scripture. E. C. Butler, superintend-
ent of schools, made the principal
talk, and explained the 12-grade sys-
tem, among other things. S. R. Mc-
Kinney, county school superintend-
ent, made a brief talk. Members of
the faculty were introduced. The
benediction was by Allen Harper,
minister of the Church of Christ.

Up to this morning Whitewright
had ginned 63 bales of cotton. On the
same date last year 1,176 bales had
been ginned. The crop is at least a
month later than last year, and rain
Monday retarded picking. Cotton is
opening rapidly now and the fields
will soon be white, that is the ones
that have a fair crop of bolls. Some
late cotton, planted the latter part of
June, will take from 4 to 8 or 10
acres to make a bale. Some early cot-
ton will make a half bale or more to
the acre. Insects destroyed the late
cotton and the leaf worms
cleaned the stalks of foliage.
Buyers were paying 17 cents for
cotton Thursday morning and $55.00
a ton for. cotton seed. At this date
last year cotton was bringing 9.25
and cotton seed $23.00 a ton. One
bale of cotton this year is bringing
more than two bales last year, with
the "farmer saving the ginning and
picking of one bale, therefore, the
price will help to make up for the
short crop, if one wants to make a
comparison of the crops of last year
and this.
COLLEGE STATION. — Every
farmer in Texas will be contacted be-
fore Dec. 1 in a house-to-house sur-
vey on food production and a sign-up
of pledges to increase the production
of foods needed in this nation and in
those nations resisting aggression, B.
F. Vance, chairman of ttye Texas
USDA Defense Board, has announced
here.
In response to the Secretary of Ag-
riculture Claude R. Wickard’s setting
of national food production goals, the
Texas USDA Defense Board is, laying
plans for an intensive campaign to
increase food production, Vance said.
The board, working through the 254
county USDA Defense Boards in the
state, probably will use the farm plan
sign-up of the Agricultural Adjust-
ment Administration during Novem-
ber as a means of reaching all the
farmers in the state.
On Sept. 8, Secretary Wickard pro-
claimed goals on milk, eggs, hogs, and
other food products in order to meet
■the increased demand in this country
and to feed the nations resisting ag-
gression. Under authority granted by
Congress, the Department of Agri-
culture will support prices of the
needed foods at not less than 85 per
cent of parity until Dec. 31, 1942.
Detailed plans for the campaign
khave not been made, Vance de-
clared, and probably will not be an-
nounced until after the meeting in
Memphis Sept. 29 and 30 of all USDA
defense boards from the Southern
States. All Texas board members will
attend the meeting, he said.
It was expected, however, that the
farm plan, which has been used in
past to inform farmers as to their al-
lotments and probable payments and
to encourage soil-building work, will
be revised to include a complete sur-
vey of food production on the indi-
vidual farm and a pledge of greater
production of the foods needed for
defense, Vance declared.
Greatest emphasis in the campaign
will be on milk production. Secre-
tary Wickard has asked for the pro-
duction of 125,000,000,000 pounds of
milk in 1942 as compared with an es-
timated 1941 production of 116,809,-
000,000 pounds.
Othei" important production goals
include the following: Eggs, 4,000,-
000,000 dozen as compared with 3,-
676,000,000 in 1941; hogs, 79,300,000
animals slaughtered as‘ compared
with 71,000,000; beef and veal ani-
mals slaughtered, 28,000,000 as com-
pared with 25,100,000; chickens, 750,-
000,000 as compared with 680,000,000.
WASHINGTON.—The Agriculture
Department announced Monday the
Commodity Credit Corporation would
make loans on the 1941 crop 'of grain
sorghum to aid producers in holding
their feed and seed supply and in the
orderly marketing of surpluses.
Farmers who have complied with
the department’s conservation pro-
gram acreage allotment provisions
will be eligible for loans. The prin-
cipal producing areas are in Colorado,
Kansas and parts of New Mexico,
Oklahoma and Texas.
The loan rate on grain sorghum
stored in approved farm structures
was fixed at 40 cents a bushel for No.
1 grade, 38 cents for No. 2, 35 cents
on No. 3 and 30 cents on No. 4. The
rate for grain sorghum grading mixed
will be 2 cents less a bushel. Weevily
or smutty grain as well as grain with
moisture content in excess of 13 per
cent if stored on farms or 14 per cent
if stored in elevators will not be elig-
ible for loans.
The rate of sorghum stored in ap-
proved warehouses will be 7 cents a
bhshel less than when stored on the
farm. This deduction represents the
average storage charges which would
be paid by the CCC on grain sor-
ghum delivered to the corporation.
The loans will be available up to
Jan. 31, 1942, and will mature on de-
mand or on June 30, 1942.
The grain sorghum crop this year
is estimated at 128,731,000 bushels,
approximately 7,500,000 bushels more
than the 1940 crop.
The Whitewright Public Schools
opened Monday morning for the
1941-42 term with an increase in at-
tendance over last year, and with ev-
ery indication of a successful year.
All members of the faculty were
present at the opening, notwithstand-
ing a number of changes had to be
made the last two weeks preceding
the opening of school.
Superintendent Butler is pleased
with the outlook and the cooperation
being given him and members of the
faculty by the patrons. A large
crowd was present at the services
Sunday night at the Methodist
Church. Superintendent Butler was
the principal speaker and members of
the faculty were introduced. Mr.
Butler gave an outline of the pro-
gram for the school year- and asked
all for their cooperation and help.
Many improvements have been
made on the buildings during the
summer months and a lighted foot-
ball field is under construction, and
the students and patrons are enthu-
siastic over the prospects for a suc-
cessful school year.
A crew from the Community Pub-
lic Service Company has been here
for the past several days installing
the lighting equipment at the White-
wright High School -football field.
The work is being contributed by the
utility company, which amounts to a
contribution of $150 or more, if the
Board of Education had to pay for
the work. The company is having to
go to other expense in removing
transformers to be able to take care
of the field lighting.
The people of Whitewright appre-
ciate the help given by the Commu-
nity Public Service Company on this
project. It has taken the help of all
to make a lighted football field pos-
sible for Whitewright. In addition to
this contribution the Rotary Club
contributed $250, and at a meeting of
citizens Monday night $400 was
pledged to build seats. Kay Kimbell
contributed his interest in the land
being used for the field. The ball was
started rolling when the City Com-
mission appropriated $1,000, and this
was followed by $500 by the Board
of Education. Three-fourths of the
booster ticket sale for the first game
will be applied on the cost of the
seats. Others have contributed labor
and equipment to level the field and
sod it with grass.
With all working to one end,
Whitewright will soon have a mod-
ern lighted football field, which has
been needed for several years.

quired in the future, but it will
sume the payment of $10,310,000 for
right of way donated by the counties
and while they are yet to pay for,
bonds and warrants to the amount
given still extant.
Forms Basis of Legislation
Even if Stevenson’s plan is not
adopted in its precise form it will
form the basis of legislative negotia-
tions, and, therefore, the stepping
stone to an adjustment of the road
bond issue.
Stevenson’s interpretation of his
plans paints a picture of great favor
to the highway department as well as
satisfying the demands of the County
Judges that the state pay for right of
way. He lauded farm-to-market
roads as the great need of the rural
population and the justification of the
educational system. He said the ru-
ral roads provide the channels over
Which roll trucks transporting the
farmer’s produce to the market and
over which travel busses with his
children attending the public schools,
guaranteeing him a living and his
children an education. He explained
that this was his motivating influence
in advocating the change in policy
and payment for the right of way ob-
HYDE PARK, N. Y.—Sara Delano
Roosevelt was buried Tuesday behind
a little country church while her only
son, the President of the United
States, blinked away his tears.,
Slanting rays of a late afternoon
sun picked out the simple mahogany
casket. The coffin head was laid to
the west in keeping with an old tra-
dition that on Resurrection Day the
arisind dead should face the rising
sun.
While the Rev. Frank R. Wilson
conducted simple Episcopal rites at
the family burial plot in St. James
Churchyard . . . . “O Lord, support
us all the day long, until the shadows
lengthen and the evening comes.” . .
The President, tense, face immobile,
looked downward.
He never- looked toward the grave
as the casket, brightened with a sin-
gle spray of assorted flowers, was
lowered, nor did he return an anxious
glace cast his way by his wife.
The President and eleven other
members of the Roosevelt family
stood in a silent semicircle at the foot
of the grave, while Mr. Wilson read
the solemn words:
“Unto Almight God we com-
mend the soul of our sister departed,
and we commit her body to the
ground, earth to earth, ashes to ashes,
dust to dust. . .
The President stood with one hand
on the open dooi" of the White House
sedan in which he rode to the ceme-
tery, along with his wife and his son,
James, and his mother’s surviving
brother and sister, Frederick A. Del-
ano and Mrs. Price Collier.
In spite of the family’s no flowers
request, the side of the grave was
banked with them and they over-
flowed into the ‘rest of the plot. On
top of the casket was a single spray
of bright gladioli, lavender, pink and
yellow asters and red roses. A huge
wreath of red roses, white lilies and
baby breath bore the only identifica-
tion. It was from the Democratic
National Committee.
Mrs. Roosevelt’s grave was to the
left of that of the President’s father,
James Roosevelt, who died in 1900.
Nearby were the graves of Rebecca,
first wife of James, and of the Presi-
dent’s son and first namesake, who
died in infancy.

At a meeting Monday evening at
"the American Legion hall $400.00 was
pledged to build seats at the new>
lighted footbal 1 field. This amount
was underwritten by 20 men at the
meeting. Since that time 20 more
names have been added to the agree-
ment, and work will be started soon
erecting the seats, and they will be
ready for the first game, which will
be Friday night, September 19th.
The first opponent of the White-
wright Tigers will be the Bells High
School team. Booster tickets are
now beings sold for this game at $1.00
each, 75 cents of which will go to-
wards paying for the seats. It is es-
timated that the $400 pledged will
erect a section of about 400 seats. It
is planned to add other seats as
needed and as funds are available.
Committees are now selling booster
tcikets for the first game and they
■are going like hot cakes, 85 being
.sold Wednesday, the first day the
tickets were on sale. Tickets may be
purchased at the drug stores. Roby

The attendance at the opening game
is expected to be the largest White-
wright has had at a football game in
many years. Coach Boyd Payne ap-
preciates the cooperation being given
him and members of the team, and is

Will Leslie, president' of the Red
River Valley Fair Association, and
Frank Thompson, manager of the
Sherman Chamber of Commerce,
were guest speakers at the Rotary
Club luncheon Friday. Mr. Leslie
gave a brief history of the fair and
its struggles over a period of years to
get on a sound financial footing. He
said the association was out of debt,
and plans were under way for one of
the best fairs staged since its organi-
zation. Mr. Thompson outlined the
program for the fair, which will be
held the week of September 29th.
The fair is an educational institution,
Mr. Thompson said. He said every
Home Demonstration Club, Future
Farmers Club and girls’ club in
Grayson County took part in the fair
and if it were not for the educational
advantages it affords them, the fair
would not be worth holding. The
speakers were presented by F. M.
Echols, who had charge of the pro-
gram.
Boyd Payne, new High School foot-
ball coach, was a guest and was
called on for a talk by Glen. Earn-
heart, president of the club. Mr.
Payne urged all to cooperate with
him in giving Whitewright a good
football team. “If we are given loy-
al support by the patrons of the
schools, we will have a football team
that will play a class of football that
will be as good as any team, and it
will not be necessary to go to other
towns to see good football,” Mr.
Payne said.
total of above $30.00 in all, which is
a nice premium for the first bale.
The bale was ginned free by the
Planters Gin.
When The Sun went to press last
week all of the premium money had
not been raised. The bale was
brought in Wednesday of last week.
The first bale was brought in Satur-
day, August 30, by C. C. Morgan, who
resides several miles east of Orange-
ville. It was ginned free of charge by
the Donigan Gin Company. Mr. Mor-
gan brought in the first bale two
years ago.
DENISON,—Regional opposition to
proposals for an extra bridge across
the Denison Dam reservoir between
Willis, Okla., and Whitesboro was
crystalzied at a meeting of represen-
tatives of North Texas and Southern
Oklahoma communities at Hotel
Denison Wednesday morning.
A committee was named to draft
resolutions protesting the proposal as
an unwarranted expenditure of pub-
lic funds and as a through route to
benefit Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Fort
Worth and Dallas to the detriment of
local points on both sides of the river.

Other Action Asked
Copies of the resolution will be sent
Speaker Sam Rayburn, the goverr
nors and highway departments of
Texas and Oklahoma, the war de-
partment and others. Commissioners
courts of the region will be asked to
pass similar resolutions.
The bridge proposal, first made by
Gov. Leon C. Phillips of Oklahoma,
has been smoldering for several,
months. Action was spurred by the
recent announcement that Gov. Coke
Stevenson of Texas had pledged his
support of the Texas Highway Com-
mission in cooperating with the Okla-
I homa Highway Commission in
achieving the project.
Greer Opens Meet
Attended by delegates from a doz-
en Texas and Oklahoma points, the
meeting was opened by J. Lee Greer,
president of the Denison Chamber of
Commerce, who presented W. L.
Ashburn, chairman of the local high-
way committee, as presiding officer.
Mr. Greer interpreted Gov. Phil-
lips’ road proposal as a new angle in
his long fight against the Denison
Dam project. He explained that engi-
neer studies indicated use of the
highway and bridge would not war-
rant the expenditure, a million dol-
lars for the span alone. Mr. Greer
declared that the road would “lead
nowhere except from Oklahoma City
and Tulsa to Dallas and Fort Worth.”
Many Speakers Heard
Speakers from the various commu-
nities developed the general theme of
opposition, centering on claims of a
lack of economic justification and
that the proposal was being fostered
by larger Texas and Oklahoma cities
to route traffic away from Denison,
Sherman, Ardmore, Durant, Gaines-
ville, Bonham, Marietta and other
towns on both sides of the river.
The speakers included O. L. Dav-
idson, Colbert; Mayor T. J. Long,
Denison, Frank Thompson, manager
of the Sherman Chamber of Com-
merce; F. D. Perkins, McKinney;
Glenn McDonald, Durant; C. B..Bry-
ant Jr., Whitewright; County Com-
missioner Reece Bowen, Van Alstyne;
John Hardy and County Judge Car-
roll Sullivant, Gainesville; Judge
J. J. Loy, Sherman, and R. W. Stod-
dard, Denison.
Funds Needed Elsewhere
Several spokesmen attacked
proposal to spend an estimated
000,000 or more on a road that
local communities do not want while
miles of highways, including defense
routes, seriously need attention.
“I don’t believe the engineers are
seriously considering the birdge,” de-
clared Mr. Thompson. He protested
the idea of “wasting funds” when the
public is faced with so much taxes
for essential things.
Judge Loy declared that a pro-
posal now before the Legislature to
turn right of way purchases over to
the state highway department would
permit the construction of this and
other highways without regard to lo-
cal wishes and interests.
HOUSTON.—Declining to give spe-
cific reason, the prison board an-
nounced the discharge of O. J. S. El-
lingson, general manager of the Tex-
as prison system, after a day-long
meeting yesterday. Mr. Ellingson was
formerly city manager of Sherman.
In disclosing the board’s action, Dr.
Signey M. Lister, chairman, . said
merely that “the majority just
thought a change would help the
Russia has but 60,000 miles of rail-
road trackage compared with the
United States’ 250,000 miles.
prison system.
“Ellingson has been a very effi-
cient man and has worked hard and
earnestly and untiringly,” Dr. Lister
added. “But there was an unsettled
condition in the prison system, just a
lot of turmoil, and they voted him
out.”
It was reported the vote was six to
one.
At Huntsville Ellingson declared
last night that he had worked for the
best interest of the prison system at
all times, even though he did not
have the support of some board
members.
The discharge will be effective Oct.
1. A successor will be recommended
by a committee comprising Dr. Lis-
ter, Riley Wyatt of San Antonio, Den-
ver Cresnut of Kenedy and Paul
Sanderson of Trinity.

new garments, and remodeled 12 old
garments; improved six bedrooms
and one kitchen; refinished 19 pieces
of furniture, and refinished five
floors. Summer social activities of
the groups included picnics and a
sunrise breakfast.
Miss Williams has 72 girls enrolled
in homemaking classes at present,
and expects this number to be in-
creased as the school session gets un-

18 in homemaking HI, with I and II

ing five classes in the department.

ligations now outstanding.
State Would Get More
It is Stevenson’s contention 1
this plan will bring more money
the highway department than
straight split of the $2,300,000
nual surplus.
Explaining his statement Stevenson
said the $10,300,000 oustanding obli-
gations are maturing only at approx-
imately $1,000,000 annually and at
present that would make almost an
exact split of the surplus. Further-
more, that with most of the right of
way already acquired the immediate
demands under the new policy would
be comparatively small and future
needs would not amount to more
than $1,000,000 a year, to insure
equitable division between counties
and the highway department.
Recently some thirty-two states
have adopted the policy of paying for
the right of way, Stevenson averred,
to reverse their former attitude and
he believed Texas should fall into
line.
Figures Right of Way Cost
Arriving at the future cost of $1,-
000,000 for right of way Stevenson
found that the customary 120-foot
right of way amounts to fifteen acres
per mile and that the average cost
should not exceed $15 an acre. Under
the proposed plan he said it would be
less burdensome to the highway de-
partment to take over the right of
way costs than a straight fifty-fifty
split.
An interesting disclosure by Stev-
enson was that by 1935 the annual
outstanding servicing of the eligible
bonds will drop to $4,693,997 to
leave a surplus of between $6,500,000
and $7,000,000 as compared with the
present $2,300,000, therefore, the $1,-
000,000 or even $2,000,000 that might
be needed for right of way indebted-
ness and acquisition would leave
some $5,000,000 or $6,000,000 for the
highway department out of the sur-
plus. He cited this as an illustration
of the advantage to the highway de-
partment as well as satisfying the
counties.
According to Stevenson’s estimates
his plan would permit the construc-
tion of from 500 to 1,000 miles of
farm-to-market roads every year and
be of immeasurable benefit to the
farmers and rural citizens of Texas in
giving them outlets to markets and
access to schools.
