Farmers to Protest
‘Unfair’ Federal
Cotton Allotments
To formulate a group protest
against what they feel are dis-
criminatory cotton allotments un-
der the proposed 1950 federal
crop-control program, several
Cooke county farmers and busi-
ness men will meet in Jacksboro
at 1 p. m. Friday with similar
representatives of other counties
in the 13th congressional district.
The meeting is a result of action
initiated by the Gainesville Cham-
ber of Commerce and representa-
tive Cooke county business men
and cotton farmers who met at the
Community center building last
week to discuss possibility of
such action.
At the request of the local
group, the Chamber of Commerce
arranged for a meeting of repre-
sentatives of the counties in the
13th congressional district with
Congressman Ed Gossett in his of-
fice in Wichita Falls December 5.
At the Jacksboro meeting the
group will determine what action
Gossett will be asked to take re-
garding the cotton allotment pro-
gram.
Cooke county farmers feel that,
under the proposed cotton allot-
ments, many county farmers will
be seriously handicapped and may
in some cases actually be forced
to give up farming.
The group feels that congres-
sional action must be taken at the

Parking Meters Sell 24,246,000
Seconds for $336.75
City parking meters ticked off
24,246,000 seconds of parking time
during the week ending Satur-
day. Motorists paid $336.75 for
this time, and $4 more for noth-
ing — the $4 being in dimes,
which don’t operate meters.
Meter income the preceding week
totaled $298.05—less than the us-
ual revenue because of holiday
free parking on Nov. 11.

Trains May Move
Thursday on New
Railroad Overpass
The new railroad overpass over
the permanent U. S. highway 77
route just north of Gainesville
probably will support its first
locomotive Thursday evening, ac-
cording to W. J. Bryan, local
agent for the Missouri-Kansas-
Texas railroad. For more than
seven months, he said, trains have
been using a "shoo-fly" detour
about the construction point on
the railroad’s main line.
John Simpson, Gainesville resi-
dent engineer for the Texas High-
way department, which had
charge of construction, said Tues-
day afternoon that the overpass
structure is complete except for
“cleaning up and painting.” Adja-
cent grading will continue until
late December.
Plans are aimost completely
drawn, said Mr. Simpson, for im-
provement of two farm-to-market
roads in the county. One of these
is a 7 %-mile road from Valley
View to Era. The other is a 1.7-
mile stretch from Myra to a
point nine miles west of Gaines-
ville on U. S. highway 82. Com-
pleted plans are to be submitted
to the department’s Austin office
for approval and letting of con-
struction contracts.
A survey was finished this
week for re-construction of a 1.2-
mile loop road from U. S. 82. The
loop passes through Lindsay,
which is located less than a mile
south of the east-west highway.
Also complete is a survey for
improvement of a farm road from
Valley View to a point 3.4 miles
east. Drafting of plans will be
begun in two weeks, estimated
Mr. Simpson.
