IN OUR
VALLEY
—-.y-M- 1 mm3
HAUF A DOZEN beauties of the
Pageant of Pulchritude parade at
Galveston Sunday were overcome
by the heat. Fainted all over the
place went to bed and were “In-
disposed" for the remainder of the
day.
Two possible remedies suggest
themselves to prevent such mishaps
1 it' the future. The pageant might
IAstaged at an earlier date or It
rn^tht be removed to the Lower
Rio Grande Valley where heat
prostrations are unknown.
Galveston seems effectively to
have stolen first place honor from
eastern show places where the
bathing beauty show originated.
Possibly it hasn’t been moved far
enough south to be a complete
success yet.
Newspaper reports estimated that
50000 visitors were attracted to the
island city by the show.

1 CAMERON COUNTY citizens are
not inherently more law abiding
than other folks.
County Attorney M. R. Hall is
authority for the statement.
Punch boards slot machines box-
ing cards pool halls and other like
amusements and devices are not
absent by accident or because there
la no desire to operate them.
Recently a pool hall was closed.
No court action was taken. The
proprietor was asked to visit the
county attorney. He did and was
told that his place was a violation
of the law. Was given an oppor-
tunity to close peacefully; accepted
the opportunity.
No suit filed—no cost of litiga-
tion incurred—but the law rigidly
! enforced.
• • •
Now and again a punch board
f goes into operation. The same
procedure. A representative of
L sheriffs department orders the de-
P vice out of ope vat ion. If the oper-
f ator complies well and good.
If he thinks he is being imposed
jjj upon a conference with the county
attorney is suggested. In every in-
I stance to date the method has
proved effective.
Nothing spectacular about the
(procedure but practically every
citizen of the county will appreciate
the effective work of the sheriff
t and the county attorney.
Frequently some apparently
harmless scheme is found to be
operating in conflict with Texas*
anti-gambling law.
The father of the idea most often
does not realize that any law fr
being violated. Sheriff Frank Brown
sees no reason for rudely hauling
i the offender off to jail.
Ttye law is cited to him—the
m. wee goes out of existence.
A Jhiet and effective manner of
handling such cases —and one
which makes Cameron county one
of the most law-abiding in the
state.

REYKJAVIK. Iceland. June 11.
_Capt. Albin Jtlirenberg in his
seaplane the Sverige returned here
at 9:25 a. m. (5:25 a. m. E. S. T.»
after taking off at 6:35 a. m. (2:35
a. m.. E. S. T.>. for Ivigtut. Green-
land. in continuation of his flight
from Stockholm to New York.
It was the second time today the
fliers had got into the air success-
fully and had to return. The heavy
l fuel load forced them back about 4
a. m. also.
Fuel Line Broken
From Reykjavik to Ivigtut is a
little more than 900 miles. The
plane already had flown approxi-
mately 1.400 miles from Stockholm
to Bergen and Bergen to Reykja-
vik punctuated with a wait of sev-
eral hours when the seaplane was
forced down on the southeast Ice-
landic coast by a broken fuel line.
Capt. Ahrenberg and his two
companions Lieut. Axel Floden and
Mechanic Hans Ljunglund studied
weather reports offered by the
Reykjavik meteorological station
closely before making the decision
to leave. While these reports were
| none too good they indicated im-
provement over former adverse
conditions
The aviators arrived at Reykja-
vik at 7:48 p. m. (3:48 p. m. E. S.
i T.) yesterday from Vestmann
Island south of Iceland and about
60 miles from Reykjavik. They had
been towed there earlier by gov-
ernment boats which speeded to
their aid when they made a forced
landing at Skaptaros late Sunday.!
60 Miles in 35 Minutes
The flight over the 60 miles was
made in 35 minutes. Arriving they
were met by the mayor and town
council who escorted them to the1
Hotel Iceland for a banquet while
spectators on the quays sang the
Swedish national anthem.
Their plane functioned perfectly
they said. The slight damage it re-
ceived when it alighted near Skap-
taros had been repaired and it was
only necessary to alight at Rey-
kjavik to secure fuel for the long
across-water flight to the south-
west Greenland coast.

HONORED
R. B. CREAGER
Brownsville man. upon whom
Southwestern university has
conferred an honorary degree of
laws. HLs activities as Repub-
lican leader of Texas have made

Herald today he strikes back at
members of a senatorial com-
mittee who have been making
promiscuous charges.

CREAGER HITS
INVESTIGATORS
G .O. P. Committeeman
Says Brookhart Is Un-
fair and Prejudiced
R. B. Creager Brownsville attor-
ney and republican national com-
mitteeman. Tuesday said he had re-
ceived no information or notifica-
tion from the senate sub-committee
investigating patronage in Texas.
Mr. Creager made it plain that it
is immaterial to him where the
hearing will be held and said no
truthful statement concerning the
republican organization in Texas
will ever harm it. News stories Sat-
urday said it is virtually assured
that the hearings will be held in
San Antonio or Dallas and possi-
bly in both cities.
In discussing the probe Mr. Crea-
ger said:
“I have heard nothing with re-
gard to a trip by the sub-committee
to Texas except what I have read.
Furthermore it is immaterial to me
wrhere they hold the hearing. Chair-
man Brookhart probably thinks that
by moving the hearing here he can
call in the testimony of political
enemies and disappointed office
seekers to his advantage but of this
I am certain as long as they hold
to the truth the Texas republican
organization will in no wise suffer.
“However if the committee does
come to Texas I hope all of the
members will be included as I feel
that only with Senators McKellar
and Oddie present can we get a
square deal.
“Every body knows Senator Brook-
hart is unfair unjust and untruth-
ful in his attacks upon me; that he
is narrow and prejudiced in his con-
ducting of the hearing sessions.”
Such was Mr. Creager's answer to
published charges by Brookhart that
the sessions in Texas would supply
“full as interesting series of oc-
curanres as were brought out during
the committee meetings held in
Washington last spring.”
