his boys have put the well known
damper on the bill by his insU-
tance that the general appropria-
tion be paused and certified by
the comptroller before any pay
raise be considered. The fact that
any one of these bills, each one
culling for a different amount of
money, might be passed did not
seem to enter the Governors ablo
mind. Most any one would realise
that the Appropriation Committee
should know how much money is
going to be needed before they
could recommend a sound bill to
take care of the state's expenses
for the nest two years.
School people from all over the
state mat in Austin, last Sunday
night ta-plan our strategy for the
cominfcarMk and it seems to have
accomplished one thing at least.
We aoccedad in getting the House
to recess in lieu of adjournament
which gives the backers of the
teacher* pay raise bill a chance to
get the bill recommitted to a
more favorable committee or
bring it out on the floor on •
minority report.

Recently published official registration
figure* for the last full year show that truck
users in every single State bought more
Chevrolet than any other make!
It is difficult to imagine more convincing
proof of Chevrolet's superiority, for such
clciir-cut and overwhelming preference can
lead to but one conclusion:
Chevrolet trucks must be better, must
enjoy solid advantages over other trucks.
Such preference must rest on a firm foun-
dation of good, sound value. And, of
course, it does-as owners of Chevrolet
trucks can testify.
So before you buy any truck, sec how
much more Chevrolet trucks offer you.
