ed in the general election in 1934.
The measure was introduced by
Sen. George Purl of Dallas and
Sen Walter Woodward, Coleman.
Delegates to the convention to
be held as soon after the election
as possible would be elected in the
manner of any other district offi-
cer. Delegates would represent sen-
atorial districts.
This proceed urc would prevent
confusion and save the expense of
a separate election. It was pointed
out. Delegates would be nominated
at the regular primary elections.
Wet leaders, however, saw in the
bill an effort by drys to delay con-
sideration of ratification of repeal
for two years.
Practically all ballots for yip run-
off election for directors of the
chamber of commerce have been
distributed according to Manager
J. T. Webster of the chamber.
Members who have not received
ballots will get them either Tues-
day afternoon or early Wednesday
morning, he said.
All ballots must be in the cham-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21—<UP»—
National prohibition today awaited
the verdict of the nation's voters.
The machinery of the federal
government was speeded up to re-
fer to the 49 states the Blaine res-
olution for outright repeal of the
Eighteenth Amendment.
- Once copies of the resolution had
been sent to the govefnors of the
states, the burden of offering the .
voters a chance to make known
their decision will rest with State
legislatures. ,
It was anticipated that 48 en-
velopes carrying sealed coplee of
the Blaine amendment. would be
in the mail* today. When they have
been delivered to the respective
governors the federal government
will have dene ajl’inits power to
afford the nation a chance to act.
Some Veteran antl-prohtbitlonists
proposed legislation regulating the
calling of conventions and provid-
ing federal funds and supervision.
Speaker Garner frowned on the
proposal.
"Give the states a chance," he
said. "I believe that State legis-
lators even though personally op- •
posed to repeal would be sporting -
enough not to block an expression
of the popular will." ' r ,

I like the boys today, that telling
I the truth would make It easier on
him.
Then too there's another angle
that enters into the scheme of
things. Is it not possible that
Washingtor .in the child’s sense of
I honor was trying to shield some-
b one? We’ve known a lot of boys
who would refuse to tell the truth
I because they did not want the
title of ’"squealer" among their
pals.
However, no one has come for-
ward down through the years to
give the actual lowdown on the
cherry tree incident and so George
has gotten all the credit.
To say that Washington never
told a Ue would be like making a
statement that, net one boy out of
three ever stole a waermelon.You
can imagine what we re driving at.
AUSTIN, Feb. 21—(UP) — The
Texas Senate went up and down ”
the financial scale today by flrat
voting favorably to abolish the
State fee system of paying officers
and then by passing to engrossment
resolutions calling for salary in- '
creases for the governor and other
state officiate.
* The resolution calling for a con-
stitutional amendment to abolish
the fee system was adopted un-
animously. It now goes to the
house for consideration and if
adopted will be submitted to pop-
ular vote at the next general elec-
tion in November. 1934.
The resolutions for constitutional
amendments to Increase salaries
provide a raise in the governor's
salary from $4,000 to 812,000; the
comptroller, treasurer and land
commissioner each from 82.500 to
$6,000, and the attorney general
from 84 000 to 810,000.
