MEAL TOO HEAVY;
FLOUR IS PLASTER
The Rural Electrification Adminis-
tration has issued number one of a
series of bulletins concerning an
electrification project to serve farm-
ers in North Collin and South Gray-
son Counties, the area including
Whitewright, Bells, Tom Bean, Ida
and other communities in 'this vicin-
ity.
The project contemplates about
300 miles of service lines to cost ap-
proximately $300,000. At present, an
appropriation of $100,000 has been
made to build 100 miles of this line,
to serve about 300 customers. A to-
tal of 892 prospective customers have
signed up in. the district.
The loan is being made to the
Gray-Coll Rural Electrification As-
sociation, of which G. V. Bray of
Celina is president and Walter Bar-
ron of Van Alstyne is secretary. The
board of directors includes Homer
Sears of Whitewright, Pat Luby and
Barrett Scott of Tom Bean, and
Yeury George of Van Alstyne. Mr.
Barron is expected to be project
supervisor.
The bulletin gives the following in-
formation:
Project: 100 miles, 300 customers,
lines in Grayson and Collin Counties.
Allotment $100,000.
Present status: REA has allotted.
$100,000 for this project. It is ex-
pected that these funds will build
about 100 miles of line to serve 300
customers. Negotiations are under
way to secure wholesale power from
the Texas Power & Light Co.
Walter Barron, Van Alstyne, has
been very active in the development
of the project. REA has advised him
of the allotment and pointed out that
it now is in order to send nomina-
tions for a project superintendent, an
engineer and a lawyer to REA for
approval. The letter to Mr. Barron
outlined the qualifications for these
important appointments. Selections
for . the filling of the posts named
should be submitted not later than
Sept. 1 according to the REA prog-
ress schedule.
Forms and suggestions for incor-
poration of the project sponsors will
be furnished by REA. Following this,
the loan contract will be executed,
plans and specifications for line con-
struction approved, and the project
released for bids.
A schedule for legal and engineer-
ing steps will be sent to Mr. Barron
in the immediate future. Strict ad-
herence to this schedule, which is
set up to assist in the orderly and
efficient handling of the work, will
enable these Texas farmers to begin
using electricity early next year.
“The President obviously considers
the lower court bill as a ‘stepping
stone’.” ?'■
The source declined to amplify the
statement.
AUSTIN.—Giles L. Avriett, auditor
for the old age pension organization,
estimated today an extra $3,500,000
would be needed to support the pen-
sion program during the fiscal yeqr
starting Sept. 1.
He made the calculation in re-
sponse to an inquiry from the Sen-
ate’s efficiency and economy com-
mittee. The Legislature will be
called in special session about Sept.
20 to levy taxes for old age and
teachers’ pensions and the State’s
general fund.
Avriett asserted the $3,500,000
would be sufficient to repay most of
a loan of $1,626,487 from a Dallas
bank, in addition to meeting current
requirements. After the loan has
been liquidated, he said, only about
$2,500,000 extra money each year will
be required.
“Assuming the law is not changed,”
the auditor wrote, “the average num-
ber of pensioners during the next
two years will be approximately
120,000.
“On the present basis of $14 state
and Federal money per person, we
will need $840,000 per month plus
$42,000 administrative expenses.
farms, the average American farmer
still takes 19,950 steps during an or-
dinary working day!
This fact was brought out in tests
conducted by B. F. Goodrich Com-
pany scientists to determine the la-
bor-saving value of a new light-
weight farm boot. As the average
farmer walks 11% miles during his
usual working day, the scientists de-
termined that the new rubber boot
cuts the weight lifted by the farmer
a total of 13 % tons daily.
In other words, this boot saves the
of lifting 1
WASHINGTON. — Texas cotton
growers were warned Tuesday not to
lose or misplace the sales slips on
their 1937 cotton already sold, or to
be sold in the future. . v
Secretary Wallace has notified
members of Congress from Texas that
the sales slips will be used as evi-
dence when benefit payments are
made for the 1937 crop next year, to
bring the price up to the guaranteed
12 cents a pound, as
President Roosevelt.
Any grower who. does not. have his
sales slip or receipt will be in danger
of losing the payment, which will
range up to as high as three cents a
pound bn the 1937 sales. The pay-
ment, under present plans, will riot
be made until riext- spring after all
farmers have had an opportunity to
sign the 1938 control program- and
to make themselves eligible for
subsidy.
WHITEWRIGHT, GRAYSON COUNTY, TEXAS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 26, 1937.
Roosevelt Will
Continue High
Court Struggle
WASHINGTON.—President Roose-
velt placed a reluctant stamp of ap-
proval on the lower court reorgani-
zation bill today, but emphasized
that it did not fulfill his ideas on ju-
dicial reorganization and indicated he
would continue to fight for his Su-
preme Court objectives.'
As a climax to six months of bit-
ter controversy over his original ju-
diciary reorganization proposals, Mr.
Roosevelt signed the lower court pro-
cedural reform bill last night and
announced the action this morning.
The announceinent was accompa-
nied by a presidential statement em-
phasizing that the chief executive
felt that the measure, which was dic-
tated by opponents of the original
plan, did not satisfy the judicial
needs of a “great and growing na-
tion.”’ .
A source close to the White House
interpreted the President’s state-
CHICAGO. — Swift & Co. today
was accused of squandering its funds
in the alleged expenditure of $3,000
for Democratic National Committee
yearbooks.
Attorney Robert C. Kewley, a
stockholder, filed suit in Superior
Court asking for recovery of $3,000
and for a restraining order to pre-
vent the company from further con-
tributing to campaign funds of polit-
ical parties.
Declaring the purchase was “whol-
ly useless” and the price was “ex-,
cessive,” the suit charged violation

state comptroller, under Mr. Harris’ I
proposal, and local officers would be
left to enforce the liquor law.
“The State Liquor Control Board
is costing $1,500,000 a year in ad-
ministration expenses,” Mr. Harris
said. “I want this useless expense
stopped and the money used to cut
down the deficit. Enforcement of the
liquor laws is a local matter, for no
matter how many cases are filed by
state agents, gonvictions will not be
obtained unless local sentiment fa-
vors strict enforcement. The situa-
tion in various Texas cities shows
this to be true.”
The hill is to be cut down five feet
and similar leveling work will be
done on the road before the concrete
.is laid. Other parts of the road are
to be filled-in to make a
stretch.
Five hundred men have applied at
the office of Russ Mitchell, Inc., at
the Travelers Hotel, contractor for
unskilled labor jobs on the project,
according to Charlie Smith, office
manager. Twq hundred men will be
employed by Sept. 15, Mr. Smith
said, and will be selected from those
i on the roll at the office.
The paving will not be completed
until the first part of 1938 and fin-
ishing work will bring employment
to skilled laborers, who will also be
hired locally as far as possible, he-
said.
Equipment for the work, all of
which has not .arrived as yet, is be-
ing kept east of the Highway 60
•overpass. Sand .and gravel for mix-
ing the concrete will be weighed at
the overpass station and carried in
trucks to a mixer which will be
moved along with the. job.
The paving is the first straight
state paving job to be let in four
years, according to Mr. Smith.
Sand from Denison, crushed stone
from Bromide, Okla., cement, from
Dallas, steel from Fort Worth and
Denison labor will be used in the
construction. R. J. Bernath is con-
struction superintendent.
Wallace Advises
Roosevelt to Fix
9c Loan on Cotton
children.
Hospital Cash Sought
Besides the foregoing requests, the
Board of Control will ask the Legis-
lature for $150,000 or $200,000 to be-
gin operation of the new West Texas
hospital at Big Spring.
Legislators also will face the task
of raising $640,000 already due offi-
cials under the salary system which
voters yesterday preferred over a re-
turn to the old fee system. Gov.
James V. Allred has promised to con-
sider submission of this topic to the
special session, “after taxes are
levied.”
Enabling acts will be required to
put into effect the tax discount plan
and Harris County’s road tax plan.
A former act allowing tax discounts
was held unconstitutional. It may be
reenacted. An act already has been
passed on bank stock liability,
always had advocated that. With-
out saying what action the chief
executive expects to take on sugar, _
he added the quota measure in its bb a speaker, and Mrs. Rosa Young
present form is somewhat less objec-
tionable than before it was revised
in the closing days of Congress.
Wallace said there probably will
be no decision on the cotton loan
rate until the Commodity Credit Cor-
poration meets in a few days to con-
sider data gathered by technical ex-
perts.
A 10c loan was advocated by some
cotton states senators and congress-
men.
As to machinery to handle the
Federal subsidy equivalent to the
difference between the amount of the
loan and 12c, Wallace said producers
will be asked to save their sales slips.

SHERMAN. — Sherman has been
named one of 30 Texas cities where
examiners will be stationed by the
department of public safety at Aus-
tin to issue chauffers’ and drivers’ li-
censes.
According to a letter received by
George Schumacher, chief deputy in
the highway department of. the as-
sessor-collector’s office, from Ralph
H. Buell, chief of the drivers’ bureau,
department of public safety‘new pa-
trolmen who will aid examiners in
issuing the licenses are in training
at Camp Mabry, Austin, and will be
ready to assume their duties about
Oct. 15.
The. communication asked that the
local highway office continue to is-
sue licenses until the additional per-
sonnel is ready for duty.

“If and when liquidation of the in-'
debtedness is accomplished, a mini-
mum of $2,500,000 must be provided supervise aid to the
for the 1938-39 fiscal year.” • •’ ’
Avriett suggested the State would
save money in the long run by per-
mitting pension authorities to em-
ploy more investigatory.
The number of full-time pension
organization employes decreased, he
said, from 605 in February to 484 in
July.- He reported only 2,449 pension
applications were pending at the end
of last month compared with 62,725
at the start of th6 year.

Since few are expected to take ad-

Approximately 200 representatives
of Women’s Missionary and Young
People’s Societies and Christian
Churches-of Grayson, Fannin and
Hunt Counties are expected to at-
tend the first, annual convention of
the Tri-County Christian Missionary
Society to be held at the Central
Christian Church here Monday aft-
ernoon at 3 o’clock.
Mrs. Ben F. Hearn of Denison,
president of the organization, will be
in charge of the business session. The
program theme will be “Youth and
World Fellowship,” and will be ded-
icated to Miss Laura Lynn Major,
missionary of the United Christian
Missionary Society to China, who is
at home here on a sick leave.
Mrs. W. O. Harmon of Bonham
will conduct the opening devotional.
Mrs. J. C. Morgan and Mrs. D. L.
Finch of Denison will be presented
in a vocal duet.
Unable to atterid the session, Miss
Major will send her greetings by let-
ter, and spokesmen will express the
society’s appreciation of the White-
wright missionary’s service in for-
eign fields.
A youth’s symposium will include
adresses by three Denison young
people, Miss Frances Jenkins, “High-
living continue to increase, it may be
necessary to raise the average bud-
get above $14. If we are permitted
to care for the doubtful, meritorious
marginal cases, the number of re-
cipients will exceed 120,000.
“If the old age assistance com-
mission is allowed a fairly liberal
policy and takes care of marginal
cases and liquidates the outstanding
indebtedness, my estimate is that it
will be necessary for the Legislature
to provide for the 1937-38 fiscal year
a minimum of $3,500,000 additional
money.
SHERMAN. — A plea to Grayson
County farmers to pick and not pull
their cotton, both for their own ben-
efit and for that of their community
market, was made today by V. O.
Teddlie, county agent.
“It is a mistake to think there is a
profit in harvesting cotton by pulling
it,” Mr. Teddlie said. “It not only
hurts the farmer who sells the pulled
cotton, but it hurts the town market
for cotton.
“Different towns or cities are
graded, in a way, by cottonbuyers
who buy it in bulk, and the town that
offers an inferior quality of cotton is
graded according to the quality it of-
fers. In this way farmers who grow
a good staple and grade of cotton are
penalized because of their negihbor’s
carelessness. Pick your cotton and
build up the market of the county.”
AUSTIN.—Appropriations- totaling
at least $7,560,000 will be asked of
the special session of the Legislature
next month; as a result of Monday’s
adoption of State constitutional
amendments.
The welfare amendments do not
need enabling acts. Such acts were
passed to take effect if Monday’s
election was favorable to aid blind
adults and dependent children. The
appropriations alone are needed to
make them effective.
Preliminary estimates made by the
welfare division of the State Board
of Control indicate $360,000 a year
will be needed to pay the maximum
aid to adult blind. The maximum is
$15 a month.
It is estimated there are 36,000 de-
pendent children.. The existing act
puts a limit of $1,500,000 a year on
the expenditure for that sort of aid.
Teacher Fund Needed
. Another $2,000,000 a year will be
asked as the State contribution to
match the teacher retirement fund
payment by the teachers. It is esti-
mated 45,000 teachers can partici-
pate by contributing to- the fund. It
is possible that school janitors and
other employees of school districts
also may be held eligible.
Chairman Claude Teer of the
Board of Control said investigations
'indicate that $3,500,000 additional
appropriation will be needed the
1 first year and $2,500,000 the follow-
ing year for old-age assistance on a
very restricted budget.
The board also supervises relief
but has approximately $400,000 still
available to continue distribution of
surplus commodities and its other ac-
tivities. ..Adam Johnson, Who has
been head of relief, is expected to
head the new welfare section of the
Board of Control which also will

Rainfall in Whitewright during the
past week totaled 1.74 inches, ac-
cording to records of C. C. Cates, of-
ficial recorder. It rained .14 of an
inch Saturday, .55 Sunday and 1.05
Monday.
Soil conservation payments for
1936 to farmers in six counties of this
area this year totaled more than $2,-
000,000, according to figures com-
piled August 1 by the state agricul-
tural adjustment administration office
at College Station. Collin County led
these counties in benefits, followed
closely by Fannin and Hunt. Nine
Texas counties received more mon-
ey than did Collin County.
