amendment
July 26.
Someone failed to give proper no-
tice, just as someone failed to expur-
gate superfluous and ambiguous
phrases.
What the people would like to know
I* who bungled the matter
Someone was supposed to edit th*
| amt uduietit a comparatively small
| lob, since it waa short and rather
i simple.
Someone was supposed to look after
it* publication as prescribed by law
Now we find the whole thing gone
awry First, because a few words
— i were not cui out. and. second, because
— It was not published a* it ought to
I have been.
This, of course, is nothing less than
I crude, inexcusable negligence
i We have been told that this'amend-
I ini-in was of great Importance, that.
I if not adopted, Texas might lose the
I federal aid for road construction to
I which she was entitled.
J W* ar* now told, and very com-
i plan utly, as it would seem, that the
nmendmvnt cant' t>* adopted, and I*
dead until presented to th* people
once mor* a* a wholly new amend-
ment
It is such fiascos as this that cause
people to lose confidence in their offi-
cials and make them voice dissatis-
faction
If this amendment were of such
consequence as we have <>een told;
If the process of putting It In shape
I and adv rtlsing It were so simple a*
I is apparent, and If there were officer*
I paid to look after such matters, why
has It come to snch a dead end ?
There Is only one answer, and the
people know It — Houston Chronicle.
