A Plan For Progress
The East Texas Chamber of Commerce has set out to
help small towns in its area of operation get new industries
and businesses. The program is certain to be watched with
a great deal of interest all over the state.
The East Texas organization will establish an industrial
research section to study small communities and determine
their assets. Not only will that be done but an effort will
be made to interest industries in the opportunities in the
small towns, once these opportunities have been investigated
and catalogued.
Speaking broadly, industry is interested in the smaller
towns, which as a rule offer happier conditions all around
for work and business. In bringing together business men
who are looking for good locations and the small communit-
ies which have them, the East Texas Chamber of Commerce
can perform a service of great value to Texas. We will be
among those watching the progress of the program and
pulling for its success.

unprecedented prosperity of ag-
riculture, our basic industry,” he
said. “Our farmers have accu-
mulated more than $22,000,000,-
000 in liquid assets, their farm
mortgage debt is less than half
of what it was ten years ago
and the pent-up demand for
things they want and need is
nowhere nearly filled.”
He contrasted their present
condition with that farmers ex-
perienced after the last war
when they found themselves
with no liquid assets, huge mor-
tgage debts and sliding prices.
Wood said the total investment
by Sears in the new Ross ave-
nue store, including land, build-
ing and fixtures, but not inven-
tory would run between $3,500,-
000 and $4,000,000.
This represents just about half
of the investment the company
currently is making in new Dal-
las plants, he added. Under con-
struction are a new retail store
in Oak Cliff and a warehouse at
the rear of the firm’s headquar-
ters plant on South Lamar.
“Maybe we shouldn’t have
spent so much” on the new Ross
Avenue store, the general said,
“but then, Dallas has been
mighty good to us.”

Battleship Texas
In Need of $225,000
For Houston Home
Lloyd Gregory, of Houston,
chairman of the Battleship Tex-
as Commission; today called up-
on all former crew members of
the USS Texas to assist in the
drive starting Sept. 15, to raise
$225,000 to bring the gallant
old battlewagon home to the
Lone Star State.
He asks them to contact The
News, explaining that they are
former crew members of the
Battleship Texas; and also to
send their names, addresses, and
facts about their duty aboard
“Old Tee” (as she was famil-
iarly called by her crew) to:
Battleship Texas Information
Bureau, 1428 Commerce Bldg.,
Houston, 2, Texas. These names
will go into a master list for
historical record about the re-
tired battleship.
When things got tough aboard
the Texas, or when crew mem-
bers ran into trouble, some one
always shouted “Come on, Tex-
as!” And it got results. Once
more “Old Tee” must call upon
its crew, and again she does it
with:
“Come on, Texas!”
