porters of the amendment which
will be voted on in the May 5
primary, would like to have us
believe that the raising of quar-
ter horses and throughbreds in
Texas is going to collapse unless
we have race tracks.
This, of course, isn't true.
Texas today, without race track
gambling, ranks first in the na-
tion in the breeding and raising
of quarter horses and near the
top in the thoroughbred field.
That's a wonderful record and
one of which we're sure all
Texans are proud. We should
be especially proud that this has
been achieved without exposing
our citizens and communities to
the inevitable corrupt influences
of organized crime and undesir-
able hanger^ons that infest race
track areas across the country.

(Pd. Pol. Ad)
Senate Crime Investigating re-
port stated, "Wherever large
scale gambling has been carried
on, it has been the experience
of law enforiement officials that
violence and crime incx-ease in
proportion to the size of the
gambling operation."
i Raising fancy horses is a won-
i derfully exciting and commenda-
i ble business or hobby, it is ex-
pensive and takes considerable
' capital. We have never yet
heard of a Texas horse raiser on
relief.
Nor do we think any of them
are going bankrupt, or are going
to have to take their kids out of
college, or have their homes
broken up, or embezzle money—
or commit suicide — without
horse race gambling in Texas.
If it should be voted-in all of
these things will happen to a
whole lot of people, doubtless to
rorne people we know and love
right here in our community.
When it comes to a question
of thoroughbred horses, or , thoi'r
oughbred citizens and thor-
oughbred towns and cities to
live in and raise and educate
our future thoroughbred Texans
in—let's not vote for the horses!
Race track gambling breeds
vice as well as horses, paupers
as well as promoters, victims by
the wholesale to every single
victor.
Authorities estimate that the
American people each year gam-
ble away 50 billion dollars—al-
most three times more than is
spent for education—15 times
more than contributions to
churches and Sunday schools.
In the current April issue of
Atlantic magazine. Attorney
General Robert Kennedy states,
"The American people spend
more on gambling each ^year
than they spend for bread."

true peanut variety, Starr,
developed by the Texas Agricul-
tural Experiment Station is the
subject of much discussion
among Teas peanut growers. The
performance of the new variety
in statewide research and farm
demonstration tests last year
have put it in orbit, reports Ben
Spears, extension agromist.
Enough planting seed are not
available to take care of the de-
mand. Spears ooints out that
certified seed of other varieties
are available and suggests the
planting of Spantex, Argentine
or Dixie Spanish.
