NOW HERE S A LETTER THAT
ft a letter—
?If. from Mrs. W. T. Conklin
out* 2 San Benito.
\ “To the Editor:
A“Notlce your advice to the people
a. the Valley to do all their Christ-
inas shopping in their home town
or at least in the Valley as our
Home town merchants have been
V staggering so hard to get by.
“Will say that if the farmers care j
as little about them getting by as
our Home town merchants care
about the farmer getting by they
will expect to send to some town
tip North and do their Christmas
•hopping.
w ^ “We have raised FINE FALL po-
tatoes and spent 3 whole days try-
ing to sell one load to merchants
in the Valley but they inform us
they have white potatoes from the
North.
“Our big produce men ship in
white potatoes and our Home town
merchants buy them. Let them get
\ their Christmas shoppers also from
| the North.
“P. S. Other farmers are having
Ike same trouble.**
• • •
s NO HUMAN IN HIS OR HER
light senses would blame Mrs.
•onklin and her tanner friends for
|eeling aggrieved but—
Mrs. Conklin—we honestly believe
you are Jumping on the wrong par-
ties when you blame the home town
grocery stores for not handling your
potatoes.
It has been our experience that
»ny store be it drygoods depart-
ment grocery store or what does
its level best to handle what its
customers want.
Let the housewives of the Valley

for Valley grown potatoes and call
in sufficient numbers—
And we will guarantee that every j
grocery store in the Valley will be

and handling them right soon.

SEEMS TO US AND WE ARE
writing this without taking the due
precaution of consulting the Better
Half—
That the problem is to educate j
'Valley housewives to demand—
New Valley grow n potatoes In the
fall ol the year.
Dont't blame the merchant for not
atockins up with so.ne commodity—
For which there is no demand.
He Is taking enough loss as it j
is
Rather let s all of us. especially j
including our Valley newspapers— j
Try to drive home to our Valley I

buying Valley grown potatoes.

whether it be fall winter spring
or summer.

EATING VALLEY GROWN Po-
tatoes is one way by which in a
manner of speaking the Valley may
lift itself by its own boot straps j
Somehow or other we have faith
in Valley folk to the extent that we !
be live—honestly and sincerely—
That all that is necessary—
Is just to call this little matter j
to their attention
And we beg of Mrs. Conklin and j
those who have been having diffi- |
culty in selling their fall potatoes— j

Hidalgo Names Own Man
To Fight State’s
‘Force’ Tactics
(.Special to The Herald*
EDINBURG Dec 12.— Hidalgo
County Tuesday had two authorized
relief administrators and develop-
ments are expected to be brought
to a rapid climax by the Hidalgo
County commissioners court in
what it terms its opposition to
lorce" in selection of members or
the county relief board.
The court has been at odds with
the Texas Relief Commission for
.he past three months over appoint
irent of the county board. The
commission which is disbursing
leaeral money in Texas relief
work has been represented In ne-
ogtiations concerning the naming
oi the committee by State Sen.
Archie Parr of Benavides and for-
mer Hidalgo County Rep W. R
Montgomery of Edinburg. The com-
missioners' court and all represent-
atives of the commission thus far
art on opposite sides in politics
the commissioners’ court having
elected in Hidalgo after running
against a Democratic ticket.
The situation has been steadily
progressing toward a climax
refusal ol the state commission to
teach an agreement with the com-
missioners’ court. The latter ap-
pointed a new county relief board
last week of which Dr C J
Hammc of Edinburg is chairman
and A. A. Aldrich of Edinburg is
.sfcrct^ry.
The county board Monday ap-
pointed Harry P. McNeil of Mer-
cedes. a pioneer resident of the
Valley as county relief adminis-
trator. and he was advised that
he was to take over the work im-
medVely if he accepted. His ac-
ceptance of the appointment was
expected to be a matter of qualify-
ing.
In the meantime. Kenneth S
Wendler of San Antonio has been
placed at the head of county relief
work by the Texas Relief Commis-
sion. w;hich last week sent former
State Senator Carl Hardin to Ed-
inburg to take over the work. Ben
D Lee. former relief administra-
tor. was replaced by Wendler and
the old board was removed by
Hardin who did not name mem-
bers of a new board.
It was learned on excellent au-
thority early Tuesday tnai the new
administrator. McNeil would be
placed In office within the next
lew davs. at the latest by cou-r
order if no other means were
found to place relief work under
his direction.
