The Fort Worth Chamber of
Commerce launched what may
be the largest state conserva-
tion and anti-pollution campaign
in the nation when it began work
on a greatly enlarged Texas
Conservation Awards Program.
This state-wide program,
now in its 26th year, was assum -
ed by the Fort Worth organiza-
tion last year and five new
environmental improvement
programs were added for the
first time this year.
Under the direction of a com-
mittee headed by Walter R.
Humphrey, new categories for
competitive awards added this
year include air pollution con-
trol, water pollution control,
waste disposal, beautification
and environmental improve-
ment-industry or plant.
In all, awards are presented
in 25 categories to individuals,
firms, cities, schools, and clubs
such as FFA or 4-H. A special
essay,, contest for high school
students is also conducted and
this year’s theme will be “Our
National Environment—Pre-
serve and Protect It.”
All entries in all contest
divisions must be submitted by
February 15, 1971, when the
Fort Worth Chamber and the
Texas State Soil & Water Con-
servation Board begin judging
programs.
This week the chamber sent
out more than 3,000 programs
and an equal number of entry
forms to the 188 soil and water
conservation districts in Texas.
Originally founded by
Humphrey, who was the editor
of the Fort Worth Press, the
contest was primarily aimed
at recognizing efforts to save
Texas soil.
“We have been involved in
environmental improvement-in
the field of ecology—for the
first quarter century of our
program,” said Heumphrey.
“We are adding our new cate-
gories to recognize areas of
new public awareness.”
The 1971 awards dinner to
crown the new champions will
be held in the Student Center
Ballroom of Texas Christian
University for the second year,
with TCU joining the chamber
as host. The state dinner is
planned for May 1, and five
regional dinners will follow.
These regional awards din-
ners will be held in the follow-
ing areas and cities: Panhandle,
Northwest Texas—Crosbyton;
Southwest Texas—Del Rio;
South Texas—Hallettsville;
East Texas—Sulphur Springs;
and Central and North Texas-
Stephenville.

At a meeting before the con-

was a computerized, finger-tip

Courts Speak—State Supreme
Court agreed to hear the appeal
of a Houston trucking firm on
Nov. 25 relative to a $300,000
judgment favoring an Odessa
widow and her children in con-
nection with a 1966 accident in
which the woman’s husband hit
a parked truck.
In other recent actions, the
High Court:
♦Rejected the City of Floy-
dada’s appeal in a lawsuit over
land condemned for the city’s
airport.
♦Turned down the claim of
a Houston widow to a share of
her deceased husband’s inheri-
tance because she waited too
long to file suit.

Tax Raise, Cut—Employers I

At the same time, Governor I

while those for contractors I

Austin, Tex.—Tax-free finan-

Gov. Preston Smith came out
for the added attraction at no

Ben Barnes said he agreed
that revenue bonds to help in-
dustry finance locations would
be the preferred route for legis-
lation.
Both spoke here at the gover-
nor’s annual conference on in-
dustrial expansion.
Smith also advocated a pre-
employment industrial training
program to fill the need for
trained labor. He pledged his
efforts to maintain a favorable
tax climate for industrial
development.
James W. McGrew, Texas

derscored the importance of the

Mrs. Hale also agreed to an

“Staples are slightly shorter
this year due to the dry grow-
ing season,” said Cain. Grades
are good at this point with a
good percentage of white
grades. If the moisture falling
today does not last too long,
it will not have much effect on
qualities. Cain reminded far-
mers to give their cotton a good
chance to dry out before resum-
ing harvest.
Farmers were busy harvest-
ing this week and not enough
cotton has been sold to quote
average prices received. A few
small lots sold averaged 250 to
350 points over corresponding
loan rates. Market sources
indicated weakening trends in
the market.
Cotton classed this week
graded 50% white and 45T light
spotted. The prevailing grades
were Middling, 28 percent, and
Middling Light Spotted, 30 per-
cent
Prevailing staples classed
this week were 15/16, 45
percent and 31/32, 27 percent.
Micronaire, or fineness and

85% read in the desirable range
of 3.5 to 4.9.
Legislation backed by the

“Almost
nized that
important
Japanese goods. I wonder how
many of us realize that the
Japanese are major customers
for American goods, espcially
for American farm commodi-
ties.
“In fact, Japan imports more
U.S. agricultural products than
any other country in the world-
a record $1.1 billion worth
during the 1970 fiscal year,”
Cate said.
He pointed out that feed
grains, wheat and cotton are
important farm crops in Cottle
and that exports of these farm
products to Japan have gone up
dramatically in recent years.
More than six million tons of
feed grains were shipped to
Japan last fiscal year—just
about one-third of U.S. feed
grain exports. Soybean exports
to Japan had a 251 million dollar
value, and wheat exports $136
million. Japan is our best cot-
ton customer, taking one-fourth
of its cotton from the U.S. and
Japan bought $50 million worth
of tobacco from the U.S. during
the last fiscal year.
The ASC Committee Chair-
man reported that Secretary of
Agriculture, Clifford M.Hardin
recently took note of the Ameri-
can-Japanese trade story, call-
ing it unprecedented.
Secretary Hardin also said:
”it is this principle that led
Japan to look to efficient pro-
ducers on the broad farmlands
for the feed grains needed to
satisfy its people’s rising de-
mand for livestock.
“As a result, imported feed
grains have triggered a rapid
expansion of Japanese livestock
production. This has brought
Japanese consumers more meat
and poultry at better prices; it
has opened opportunities for
Japanese farmers for new and
profitable livestock enter-
prises; it has meant an impor-
tant and expanding feed grain
market for world agriculture.
“Almost the whole range of
U.S. farm commodities finds
Japan a leading customer.
“Japan wants, needs, andean
afford these products, and the
U.S. can supply them in any
system of international trade
in which price, quality, and
availability are the primary
factors.
“In a world of competition,
export expansion means sales-
manship and service as well as
price, quality and availability.
The producers and marketers
of the major U.S. agricultural
products have understood this,
and they support some 68 pri-
vate trade organizations form-
ed to develop markets over-
seas in cooperation with the
Department of Agriculture.
This is, of course, a mutual
effort—with many strong
Japanese organizations bring-
ing to it their special know-
ledge, their special abilities.”
In closing, Agriculture
Secretary Hardin gave special
recognition to the trade organi-
zations for the three commodi-
ties which last year accounted
for two-thirds of total U.S.
agricultural exports to Japan-
feed grains, soybeans, and
wheat.
and Wildlife Department
brnding channel catfish in
experimental program to
if the technique should be used
more extensively in fishery re-
search.
The catfish branding techni-
que, as one might expect, is
considerably different from that
used by the cowhand to mark a
rancher’s stock.
For one thing, the fish are
branded with a cold copper in-
strument rather than ahotiron.
The biologists hold the brand-
ing tool, which has been super-
cooled in a dry ice and ace-
tone solution, in the fishes*
sides for one second.
The resulting mark is a dark
pattern which grows with the
fish and usually remains visible
well over a year.
Biologist David L. Pritchard,
who conducted an 18- month
study into various methods of
fish marking, said in a recent
report that the cold-branding
practice has no apparent ill
effect on catfish. Some branded
fish, in fact, showed a higher
growth rate during some
periods than tagged individuals
in the same test ponds.
Freeze branded fish are less
prone to infection than fish
marked with conventional tags.
Another method marking
which has been the subject of
research lately is the practive
of mass-marking with fluores-
cent spray. A sand blasting gun
is used to force the pigment in-
to the fishes’ dermal tissue.
However, most experimenta-
tion with die spray has been
with fingerling-sized fish,
while branding is used generally
on larger individuals.
The cost of branding, com-
puted over a long period of
time, is comparable to tagg-
ing, Pritchard found, although
the branding operation some-
times takes a bit more man-
power for a given number of
fish.
