Citizens Natl
Bank Program Is
Adopted in Meet
Meeting yesterday afternoon,
stockholders of the Citizens Na-
tional Bank of Ennis approved
proposed plans for a program
embodying an increase of capi-
tal stock and a stock dividend.
All of the four resolutions offer-
ed were adopted.
The first resolution is con-
cerned with the increase of the
common stock of the bank from
$125,000 to $150,000 by the sale
of additional shares. The pro-
posal is to sell the stock, which
has a par value of $100, at $400
each, with shareholders of rec-
ord on the date of the adoption
of the resolution being accorded
rights to purchase those addi-
tional shares at $40 per share
in proportion to their respec-
sive holding of common stock on
that date.

A second resolution would in-
crease the common stock to
$300,000 by declaration of a 100
per cent stock dividend with
shareholders of record on the
date of expiration of the sub-
scription period receiving one
share of stock for each share
held and for each share sub-
scribed for.

New Boat Law
The Texas Parks and Wildlife
Department announced its war-
den force is ready for the sea-
sonal skyrocketing of pleasure
watercraft which, under a new
state law, is entitled to protec-
tive patrolling by state agencies.
The Department stated that,
within the available facilities,
motorboat-mounted wardens are
helping enforce the statute that
became effective last September
1.
It added that during the quiet
winter period since enactment
of the regulatory measure, the
warden force has been prepar-
ing for the statewide assign-
ment.
Seminars have been held for
the field force as well as for law
enforcement chiefs and an ex-
snare to $10 a snare with share-
holders of record on the date
of the 100 per cent stock divi-
dend receiving 10 shares for each
share held.
A fourth resolution would a-
mend the article of the asso-
ciation of the bank reflecting
the increases as outlined.

emphasis, personally cautioning

ly mounting number of aquatic
sports enthusiasts.
The Department stressed that
the usual land-based law en-
forcement patrol will be main-
tained throughout the state.
The Department noted that
even in the so-called quiet
months a substantial number of
tickets have been issued for the
more common infractions such
as lacking life preservers, skiing
in forbidden areas, boating in a
reckless manner as to endanger
human life and dangerous speed.

ing among students, workers
and refugees in the Saigon
area. The Viet Cong appear to
be preparing for a major politi-
cal offensive to coincide with
plans for general elections.
Meanwhile, a leader of one of
South Viet Nam’s major Na
tionalist parties says elections
will have no meaning unless ,
two-thirds of the people are able
to vote freely. He says one one- .

this now. He says peasants and
farmers generally could n o t
vote, and—as now planned—
elections could' only be held in
cities and town.
