Al'STIX, Tex , May 29.—When
the 4th of July weekend roll*
around, three out of four persons
will «4 serve the oeca.-ion with
the -triet st psible diet of fun
and relaxation. Hut to a goodly
pi • ,iii of the 11,000 attorneys
antl"judge* in Texas It will be «
busirnn's holiday, according to
Cecil E. Burney, Corpus! Christi,
president of the State Bar of
Texas. Burney today anonuneed
a schedule of events for the 70th
annual met tine of Texas lawyers
in Houston on July 2 - 5. At-
tendance is expected to exceed
2600.
By way of contarst, the bar
spok* -man revealed that when tlie
first such annual meeting was
held in Galveston on December
12. 18f<2, a quorum of SO mem-
bers could not be asst mbled in
time for the announced noon open-
ing Late train arrivals forced a
recess until 3:30 p.m., wh i; the
required number finally appeared,
Alt earlier session in July of
th'. same year had seen the or-
ganization of the Texas Bar As-
sociation by some 300 attorneys
and judges. Thav organization
rose to a voluntary membership
of 3157 membtrs before merging
with the State liar of Texas in
1940.
A legislative creation, the pre-
sent organization is known as an
"integrated Bar", meaning that
membership is compulsory for all
practicing lawyers. The Supreme
Cour* has issued 11,158 member-
ship cards during the current
year.
Some 50 separate business ses-
sions slated during the 4-dav 1952
assembly should keep attending
members fairly well occupied.
However, those with superior sta-
mina may find time to take part
in a few of the 20-odd banquets,:
luncheons, law school class break-
fasts and other moer convivial
events on the agenda
While some conventions are
characterized mainly by an air of
relaxation, a different atmosphere
usually cloaks gatherings of Tex-
as jurists. Intent on keeping up to
date on new developments in var-
ious fields of law, most conven-
tionnaires will spend their entire
first day at a legal institute in
Houston's Rice Hotel, Burney
said. There they will hear lec-
tures and discussions by outstand-
ing practitioners and scholars of
the law.
Twice during the convention
members will meet in general as-
sembly to transact Bar business
vit typical democratic processes.
Th lough the assembly's hands will
pass numerous resolutions and
proposals for association sponsor-
ship of new legislative and judi-
cial reforms arid various other
programs and activities.
Out of last year's general as-
sembly session came a decision
to hold a state-wide secret poll
regarding qualifications of candi-
dates for higlf judicial offices. Re-
sults of the first vote conducted
under that authority will be avail-
able July 1st, on the basis of
ballots to be mailed to 11,000
members about June loth. In-
volved will be two positions on
the Supreme Court, one on the
Court of Criminal Appeals, and
five an various courts of civil
appeals.
At times the crowd will split
up to attend .sectional caucuses,
where they will hear addresses
and debates prtaining to partic-
ular legal specialties. The con-
vention program includes se-sion*
on taxation, mineral law. insur-
ance law, labor law and oth'-r
fields Prosecuting attorneys, dis-
triet afi dappellate judges, State
Junior Bar members, and local
Bar offieials will also hold separ-
ate conclaves.
Full dfess meeting will be
held by 30 special and standing
committees to plan their work for
the coming year, the State Bar
-president indicated. Explaining
that the organization doe-s not
operate on a caelndar year basis,
he advised that new ofifcers elect-
ed by seret ballots now in the
hands of all Texas lawyers will
lane over at the clo.4t' of the Hous-
ton convention. Continuity in
emmittee work is preserved by
retaining two-thirds of the mem-
bers from y<ar to year, however.
Two sessions of the associa-
tion's Goard of Directors are to
1m1 held -one to wind up affairs
for the current y« ar, the other to
organide for next year following
installation of S newly elected
members of the board
Wives of attending lawyers and
judges, not Interested in the many
technical and business items on
the program, will be entertained
at buffet dinners, style show.' and
other social gatherings.
