Is. E. Shelby of Shelby Dry Goods
Company, 220 East Sixfh Street, left
Saturday night over the Katy for St.
Louls, New York and other points in
the east on a buying trip for his two
stores on East Sixth Street and at
Hyde Park. ,
Mr. Shelby stated before leaving
that he had purposely delayed his
trip in order to take advantage of
the lower prices which he said he had
always found following the crest of
the buying season. Since cotton is
late this year, he said he felt confi-
dent that he would have better bar-
gains in plenty of time for the opening
of the fall season than he would have
obtained a month ago.
Mr. Shelby returned a few days ago
from an oxtcnslvo motor trip through
Colorado and Yellowstone Park. He
was accompanied on thia trip by his
family. As soon as he returned he
began plans for romodelling his storo
on East Sixth Street. This work is
now well under way. Tha entire in-
terior of the store is to be thrown
Into one large store space, all parti-
tions having been removed. New fix.
tures are to replace the present ahow-
cases in the front .of the store. The
entire interior will have the appear-
ance of greater commodity and ca-
pacity.

Plans for a monster celebration for
Mexican Independence Day to last
three days are now being arranged by
members of the local Mexican colony,
it was announced Saturday. The cele-
bration is expected to attract between
8000 and 9000 Mexican visitors to Aus-
tin for the three days in September,
it was said. This will be the largest
celebration of its kind ever held in
Austin, according to Augustine G.
Nunez, chairman of the celebration
committee.
Guadalupe Park at Fifth and Guad-
alupe Streets has been selected as the
scene for the big celebration and the
* festivities are to consist of carnival
entertainments, nightly dances and
speeches.
This celebration is being sponsored
by the Austin honor committee ap-
pointed from Mexican government
headquarters in San Antonio. Mexi-
cans in all the nearby towns Includ-
ing San Antonio, will be asked to par-
ticipate in the events and the Austin
Chamber of Commerce and other
civic organizations of the city will be
invited as guests.
Work is proceeding under the f di-
rection of A. G. Nunez, chairman; J.
L. Azala, secretary, and John P. Lopez,
treasurer. Lodges participating are
Gardenia Grove No. 1813, W. C.; Ce-
rezo Grove No. 1964, W. C., Reforma

ita Falls. The sons are E. M. Bralley,
Dallas; Maurice Bralley, New Or-
leans; F. M. Bralley Jr., and Joe B., of
Denton.
Arrangements were virtually com-
pleted .Saturday whereby the Ex-Stu-
dents' Association of the University of
Texas will loan the Texas Memorial
Stadium Association the sum of $45,000
at 6 per cent interest, the loan to. run
for a period of five years if needed by
the stadium association for that length
of time.
This loan is made from the Uni-
versity gymnasium fund collected sev-
eral years ago for the purpose of build-
ing a modern gymnasium on the
campus. The gymnasium project fell
through when its originator, former
Attorney General Thomas W. Gregory
was called away from Austin and the
funds have been invested in bonds
since that time.
At its arnuaf meeting held in this
city on May 31, the Ex-Students’ Asso-
ciation voted to loan this sum to the
stadium association and appointed a
committee to make arrangements to
that end. The committee has now re-
ported, its report has been accepted by
the executive council of the Ex-Stu-
dents' Association and the' loan is vir-
tually consummated, so that the pro-
ceeds will be available within the next
few days, it was announced.
Union labor of Austin will celebrate
Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 1, with a
big parade, basket picnic and other
entertainment, accord! g to general
plans announced Saturday night by
N. A. Ladd, president of the Austin
Trades Council.
Tho parade will form at Labor Tem-
ple and will move north on Brazos
Street, beginning at 10 a. m. proceed-
ing to Eleventh Street, thence west
to Congress Avenue and thence down
Congress Avenue. Appearing at the
head of the parade will be her majesty,
Queen of Labor Day, who will be
named next Saturday night at 6
o'clock, Mr. Ladd announced. A spe-
cial queen's float on which the beau-
tiful young woman who will be named
as queen will ride is now being built
and will be bexutifu.iy decorated for
the parade. O. L. Stiofer cf the
painters' union has been named parade
marshal.
Six young women, it is understood,
have been norrinate by the various
labor unions as aspirants for the
honors of royalty for the one-day cele-
bration. Boxes will be placed in front
of Joseph's Pharmacy and the Bon
Ton Cafe where the voters can desig-
nate whch of the candidates they
favor. Votes will be sold for 1 cent
each. There will be one box for each
nominee and all one ib required to do
is to drop a coin in the box for the
number of votes he desires to give his
favorite. Tho money derived from
this source will be used in paying for
the float and other parae expenses.
Following the parade at 12:30 labor-
ing men and their families will go to
Deep Eddy vzhere an old-fachioned
basket picnic vrill be in order. Dan
Moody and J. D. Moore, locol atter-
neys, have been invited to malo ad-

Make Your, Purchase Now, Make a Small Papment
Down, Pay the Balance Weelly.
BY JOHN H. KIRBY.
Those who will go to the trouble of
carefully following America’s growth,
beginning with the birth of constitu-
tional government and coming on down
to the present tim, can find the useful
hand of protection busy all along the
way.
An examination of economic and in-
dustrial conditions under each of the
various tariff laws which have at any
time heen enacted will disclose the fact
that every period of fasting depression
known to America occurred at a time
when the advocates of low duties were
in power.
An examination will also show that
no high tariff administration ever
came to an end with the business of
the country prostrated, and that no low
tariff administration ever came to an
end under any other circumstances.
It was appurent to the great states-
men of early days that it was neces-
sary to safeguard American industries
of every character, and as a conse-
quence the first general law enacted
after the formation of our government
under the Constitution did so. There
had been no prosperity and really no
promise that we could survive as a
nation, until his step was taken. From
that time on we have grown and flour-
ished in proportion to our adherence
to this policy.
The outstanding facts of history
prove that protection has been neces-
sary to our development, and all hu-
man logic declares that it must be
maintained if we are to hold our envi-
able position.
There is nothing unnatural about the
result of such legislation. It is as
simple as any other economic problem.
Those who Inaugurated it at the be-
ginning realized that the strength of
a government could not be safely based
upon the privilege of hunting cheap
markets abroad. They knew that
wealth comes from the earth and that
the development of the natural re-
sources within our borders by our own
people was the only sure way of win-
ning It . Consequently they favored a
policy that would give the greatest
incentive to the raising of livestock,
the tilling of the soil, mining, manu-
facturing and every industry that

would call from the whole nation the
fullest utilisation of the gifts of Provi-
dece.
It is sometimes argued that the levy-
ing of duties on foreign imports only
helps the country in spots; that it robs
one section to enrich anther. But I
want to tell you that with scientific-
ally adjusted schedules nothing of that
kind occurs. Benefits are made uni-
versal, because there is an intimacy of
interests, an association of welfares.
The Northern manufacturer never
prospers without fully employing labor
and giving the Southern farmer better
markets for what he, has to sell; and
when the farmer has a, good market
the manufacturer has a good customer.
I am trying to reach the ears of the
producers of agriculture now; I want
consideration of the tariff question
from people of my own section, if
possible. Therefore let me stress this
point: Not only is the Southern farmer
benefited indirectlyby protective duties
that enable the workshops of the land
to employ more help, but he is saved
directly from a flood of rival products
that threaten the very existence of his
industry. We all saw it tottering in
1920. In the Far East they raise pea-
nuts and soya beans, and in the tropics
they raise cocoanuts and send them to
the United States by the shipload.
Vegetable oils that displace cotton seed
and other products of our* fields are
extracted from these imports. If we
allow them to come in free of duty we
will be driven out of our own markets.
It is impossible for an American with
a Christian home to sustain to meet
such competition.
The farmer is being told that he gets
no benefits from the tariff; politicians
are urging him to strike it down. But
as ’ certain as the ports are again
thrown open to the unrestricted im-
portation of products which come in
competition with the things he is
raising- in his field, that certain it is
that he will face demoralized markets.
There will bo no profits in anything
he has to sell; his fertile lands will
deny him an income. And, lest he
forgets, let me again remind him that
without an income, without that profit
which represents his buying power,
what good will it do him to have the
advantage of a cheap place to purchase
his needs?

DENTON, Texas, Aug. 23.—Funeral
services for the late F. M. Bralley,
president of the College of Industrial
Arts, who died in Dallas Saturday
morning, will be held here Sunday aft-
ernoon at 5 o'clock. The Denton
Masonic lodge, of which Mr. Bralley
was a member, will have charge of
the ceremonies and Dr. John W. Kerns
of Waco, will officiate. Interment
will be in Odd Fellows' cemetery.
A native of Texas, Dr. Bralley was
born at Honey Grove, Mar. 6, 1867.
He was educated in two institutions at
that place, and was later county super-
intendent of instruction in Fannin
county. He was state superintendent
from 1910 to 1913. He had been at
the head of C. I. A. since 1914. Active
in civic affairs he was the organizer
of the Denton Rotary Club. He was
a thirty-second degree Mason. Sur-
viving are his widow (who is serious-
ly ill in a Dallas hospital), four sons
