NEW TRAFFIC WAY
IS TO BE OPENED

Mr. H. F. McMahon was ill this
week with the flu.

DALLAS, Texas, March 4.—
“Songs Texas Sings,” a 32-page
book, is being sent this week to

AUSTIN, Texas, March 4.—A
new traffic artery, connecting
Houston and Dallas, Texas’ two
largest cities, will be opened to
public travel March 4 when the
final gap in the X-all highway is
completed. Planned for opening
during the early part of Texas
Centennial year, the road will pro-
vide visitors to Texas with an al-
ternate highway for travel from
North to East and South Texas.
Governor Allred and other state
officials are expected to attend the
opening ceremony to be held in
a roadside park between Kosse
and Thornton. The new route ex-
tend^ through Hempstead. Nava-
sota, College Station, Bryan,
Hearn, Mexia, Corsicana, and
Ennis. It also passes through Fort
Parker State park, historic fron-
tier center and one of the Centen-
nial celebration locations.
state by ..the school division of
the State Department of Public-
ity for Texas Centennial celebra-
tions.
The book is designed to assist
teachers in preparing school and
community programs planned for
Centennial ' activities. The 28
songs contained in it were chosen
after conferring with music su-
pervisors in Texas schools. The
collection is representative not
only of the sdngs of and about
Texas but also of those songs of
the nation and the south which
are best known to Texans.
John A. Lomax, compiler of
.. * Texas folk lore, says in the pref-
= ace, “Some of these songs sprang
out of the soil’ of the Southwest
like prairie grass. No one knows
the author of the music or rne
words. Texas has certainly the
right to claim them as her own
Folk songs.”
A reproduction of “Driving the
Herd,” by Frank Reaugh, Texas
artist, appears on the inside of
the cover. The picture has been
nationally acclaimed as one of tiie
outstanding paintings of tiie =
Texas range. The cover Pears a
photograph of the Texas capitolij^
dome.
While casting about • and
scratching our heads for some
subject to write about here this
week, our ears were assailed with
vituperous words coming from, a
lady who had just driven a car
over Avenue H and North Fourth
Street. From what she said we ga-
thered that the road was slightly
rough, and that there existed a
hole or two in the hard surfaced
top. When we tried to tell the lady
that the bad weaker, etc. caused
such holes, she grew even more
venomous, and said that she saw
plenty of good road machinery in
this precinct, and why wasn’t it
used to fix the roads. Of course,
we saw right then that arguing
further with such an angry wo-
man was useless, so we just de-
cided to pass the hint along to
the Commissioner that there are
holes in the streets. To fix the
holes will Isavie ladies’ tempers,
husbands’ repair bills, and com-
missioners’ reputations.
And while we are on the subject
of streets, we can’t let this oppor-
tunity pass without saying some-
thing about pigs. Just what to say,
we haven’t decided, except that
they also cause holes. If we got
rid of the pigs, we get rid of lots
of holes, and then everybody will
be happy.

The spectacular success of
Chevrolet’s million-dollar used car
disposal plan as an aid to deal-
ers, and the widespread public
endorsement of it as a contributor
to traffic safety, have led to its
extension through the mojith of
February, W. E. Holler, vice pres-
ident -and general sales manager
of the Chevrolet Motor Company,
announced today. . • •
The plan was originally an-
nounced for the month of January
only.
Under its provisions, Chevrolet
is paying its dealers for every un-
safe old car taken in trade and
scrapped. Besides helping to clear
the streets and highways of the
traffic hazard which such vehicles
represent, the program is making
for a more wholesome car mer-
chandising situation, Mr. Holler
asserted. This is being reflected in
Chevrolet’s sales records.
“With the million-dollar used
car disposal program in operation

AUSTIN, Texas, March 4.—In

ficer, stated that if doctors,

■:fffetely to the local liealth officer,

all-time record for January in its
used car sales. Eighty-two thousj

LaStest figures show; setting’a new
record of 315,806 for the "period

“There will also be a record-

ing the announcement, inasmuch
as the activity in .used. cars has

“.And. in all', 'the enthusiasm of

ing the same program, with .an
equally fine achievement ih'Feb-
ruary as our goal.”
