I ODAY, industrial possibilities in Texas are
■L being studied and analyzed as never before.
Farm products are being examined scientifically by indus-
trial chemists to determine their usefulness as raw materials
for industry. On every hand concerted efforts are being
made by all manner of agencies to help Texans take full
advantage of the industrial opportunities which are open
to them.
There is sound reason for this industrial activity in Texas;
tor. while she is in second place among all the states in
gross value of farm products, in first place in value of oil
and mineral products, in fifth place in volume of retail sales
... Texas is nevertheless in fifteenth place in manufacturing.
Therefore, it is obvious there are ample opportunities here
for industrialization.
How Texas has climbed from a frontier agricultural state
to her present position industrially is a matter of history. The
important thing now is for Texas to go forward, developing
her industrial opportunities.
Twenty-five years ago the Texas Power & Light Company
pioneered Transmission Line electric power. This type of
power... abundant, flexible, dependable, and low in cost...
has been a determining factor in the rapid strides Texas has
made industrially.
The Texas Power & Light Company is ready for this new
era in the balanced development of Texas' resources and
industrial opportunities. Its management is ready and eager
to work shoulder to shoulder with other Texans — finding,
analyzing, and helping to shape local industries... ready to
bring to each task that willingness to work, that engineering
and technical skill, that spirit of ready co-operation which
has been useful and helpful in the past.
Texans, Let's Talk Toxas... Industrially, and act vigor-
ously together for a Greater Industrial Texasi

The dinner was served cafe-

All children were present
