Indictment and then discredit the
commissioners' court and the of-
ficer making the complaint. The
hue and ere of politics would have
been sounded to the four corners of
the earth. I will say In retrospect
I think we would have made a
mistake to ha\e filed these com-
plaints. and with all due deference
to the recommendations of the pas*
grand Jury' until I am shown that
there is some official duty to file
criminal complaints I shall not do
ac. These matters have b*en called
to the attention of the grand Jury
and I am not trying to reflect
upon past gTind juries because T
feel that the majority of them
wanted to di their duty but as it
takes nine to present an Indict-
ment opposition by crying politics
bas always been able up until the
last grand Jury to keep an indict-
ment from being made.
“I also fear past grand Juries have
been imposed upon. Just as I feel
that the present grand Jury' was
imposed upon in being induced to
take this slap at the commissioners'
court.
“I want it understood that I am
not anxious for indictments also
that there is no human being for
whom I have ‘it in fpr’ that I want
to*** go to the penitentiary but I
djfwant a clean court house and if
jBper.es indictments and takes the
atSjks to bring it about then I am
for such indictment and for the
atripcs.
“Filing reports is just as much the
gwom official duty of the officer
as to do anything else. To illus-
trate making reports is Just as much
the official duty of the sheriff as
to make an arrest when a warrant
is placed in his hands.
Raps Rumor
“I use the sheriff's office as an
Illustration because he is an officer
who does his duty in both respects.
“In fact for years wc have had
only two officers with whom we
have had trouble and the common
talk at the court house was that the
reason their reports were not made
was because Judge Dancy w as trying
to force them to make these reports.
“On reading the report of the
grand Jury one would think that
comparatively no effort had been
taken to collect through civil suits.
There have been 10 civil suits filed
and thousands of dollars have been
through suits collectr \ for the
county but not 10 per cent of the
money that should have been col-
lected. Filing suits is certainly very
unsatisfactory on account of law de

lays. We filed a suit in December.
1922. got a trial in the district court
in January 1923 and collected the
money in 1928—practically six years.
The same officer under like facts
and under the identical same law.
owes some two or three thousand
dollars more to the county on
which we have suits filed and which
I anticipate will take five or six
years to collect during all of which
time the defendant officer will have
the opportunity to get him a com-
missioners court elected that will
cause the suit to be dismissed. In
fact this very thing was tried
against me during the time this very
suit was pending.
Grand Jury Is Medium
‘The article (1607) referred to
does not apply to counties having
a county auditor as this county has
had for the past 10 years. Any at-
torney who will take 60 minutes
time to investigate will so advise.
The county auditor law applied to
counties having 35.000 inhabitants
or more according to the 1920 cen-
sus 'Art. 1645' and according to
the 1920 census we had more than
1.000 in excess of the number re-
quired.
"The county clerks in counties
without an auditor do keep a fi-
nance ledger as referred to by the
grand jury but this county having
an auditor the auditor keeos all the
books relating to finance and I will
testify that Mr. Bishop has done
his duty 100 per cent.
"But it is no part of the duty of
the auditor or of the commissioners
court to make criminal complaints
against other officers who fail to
do their duty—in fact we all take
the same oath of office—and if it
were I fear that many good men
would refuse to consider accepting
said offices.
"There is only one body particu-
larly suited to make officers walk
the chalk line and that is the grand
Jury and if future grand Juries will
follow' the precedent set by the one
just adjourned I feel that a wonder-
ful forward step will have been tak-
en looking to making the Cameron
county court house the best in the
state of Texas. But after all there
is but one only way to have straight
honest and efficient government
and that is to elect men to office
who will do their duty."

SCENE FROM WAR PICTURE
Leading players in a scene from “All Quiet on the Western Front”
opening at the Capitol today.
n MWJES
“sioEucms^
CAPITOL
Once in the proverbial blue moon
there comes to the screen a picture
before which all critics of motion-
pictures must stand silent; a pic-
ture which proclaims that the
screen possesses powers inherent in
no other medium of artistic ex-
pression; a picture which appeals
with equal strength to the intel-
ligence and to the emotions.
Such a picture is “All Quiet on
the Western Front” Universal';
super-production of Erich Maria
Remarque's famous novel hiefc
opened at the Capitol theater today.
There have been war pictures
which were primarily spectacles
There have been war pictures which
were primarily romances. Thert
have been war pictures which were
primarily melodramas. “All Quiet
on the Western Front" is primarily
the story of youth — the youth of
all nations-in war. It is the story
of one youth who symbolizes In
himself the fate of all youth....
comrades and foemen — cast into
the flaming maw of war.
Bv chance and the genius that
guided the pen of Erich Maria
Remarque the central figure of
"AH Quiet on the Western Front”
is a German. But nationality means
nothing. The hero is the "unknown
soldier” of all nations..the epitome
of all youth that suffered and died
in war. or suffered and came back
not the same to a world that had
passed them by.
The story of "All Quiet on the
Western Front” is poignant in its
simplicity. It is the story of Paul
j Baumer transformed from a school
! hoy in a German village to a soldier
in the trenches of the Great War
Before he had begun to live all
that makes life worth living ha.?
been snatched away.
He is tortured by brutal discipline
He learns that uttermost meanin?
of the privations and pains of the
body and the more awful suffer-
ings of the soul. One by one. he
sees his comrades wounded or slain
He goes home for a brief visit .
and finds that even his home and
his loved ones have changed in
his eyes. He is a stranger in the
bosom of his family seeing him-
self at last as a member of a lost
generation...of youth that has
never been allowed to live
There are other moments the
poignant episode of the French
girls the deep meaning of comrade
ship forged and riveted in the
flames of hell; the primitive value?
of food and drink and shelter in
any existence from which all se-
curity has been swept away.
"All Quiet on the Western
Front” is beyond the power of
words to describe. It is technically
artistically and. above all. spiritu-
a v —flawless. Universal has kept
faith with Remarque “'here are no
concessions to what is known a?
"movie.”
AT QUEEN
A romantic story of youthful love
spectacular musical numbers hun-
dreds of beautiful dancing cirls and
an all star cast make ‘The New
Movietone Follies of 1930. ' which
comes to the Queen Theatre Wed-
nesday and Thursday an outstand-
ing production since the advent of
audible pictures.
It surpasses its predecessor. “The
Movietone Follies of 1929" in all de-
partments with a greater cast and a
story which would stand on its own
merits without the elaborate trim-
mings provided by the numerous
musical numbers.
The cast includes such favorites
as El Brendel. Marjorie White. Frank
Richardson Noel Francis. William
Collier. Jr.. Miriam Scegar. J. M
Kcmgan. Yola D Avril. Huntley
Gordon Paul Nicholson and many
others well known on screen and
stage.
William K. Wells author of many
Broadway musical successes wrote
the story and the dialog and it is
undoubtedly the best thing ' 3 has
done to date.
Benjamin Stolcff. who directed
the highly successful “Pappv Davs"
“Girl From Havana" and •'Speak-
easy" handled the megaphone and
has far excelled his previous pictures'
The ensemble numbers were staged
by Max Schreck Maurice Kusels and

RIVOLI—SAN BENITO
The first story Vever sold on
royalty basis for motion picture
production was The Spoilers” ac-
cording to information brought tc
light by Paramount during the re-
cording of this famous thriller as
an all-taiking picture. It begins e
3 day engagement Wednesday at
j the Rivoli theater. San Benito.
It was in 1913 that Selig was firs4
approached bv Rex Beach with an
offer to sell the story fer the screen
Negotiations between the tw< werr
conducted by John Pribyl literary
agent for Sclig. who was somewhat
astounded when Beach demanded
$2500 for the screen rights. The
figure was unprecedented in the
Industry.
l An agreement was finally reached
whereby Beach was to receive a
certain royalty of the gross returns
He subsequently realized a fortune
from the deal—receiving many
| times the amount he had first de-
manded.
The story has since become one of
the greatest pieces of motion olc-
I ture property In the Industry. Para-
| mount secured the 'green rights
