Army Enlistees Can
Be Home For Holidays
For the past several years, the
United States Army Recruiting
Service has offered a special pro-
gram during the Christmas season.
This special program is being of-
fered again this holiday season
according to Sgt. C. D. Crow, the
local Army Recruiter.
Sergeant Crow explained the pro-
gram. Personnel enlisting in the
Regular Army through the recruit-
ing service prior to January 1,
1964, may be granted leave for the
holiday season. This is a perfect
opportunity to serve with the fin-
est trained, equipped and specializ-
ed Army in this nation's history.
In other words, you may enlist
now and receive a written guaran-
tee of a Career Field or assign-
ment, stay with your family dur-
ing the Christmas holidays, after
which you will begin an important
and interesting phase of your life
with the United States Regular
Army.
For additional information, with-
out obligation, contact your local
United States Army Recruiter, Ser-
geant Crow, at Sheriff's office each
Tuesday, 11 a.m. until 3 p.m.

"The chances are that Palacios
will not be able to escape what is
called a 'poor payment record' Un-
til it tries to do something about
No. 4—the Quick Freeze Bonds.
"The chances are that these
bonds have pretty largely changed
hands so that the present owners,
or most of them, acquired them
cheaply. They could probably be
purchased for a percentage of their
face value—but this could not be
done by issuing other bonds.
"It is probable that General Fund
warrants could be issued for this
purpose-. (Your City Attorney and
fiscal agent would have to advise
you on the legal aspects of the
matter.)
"Of course the annual increase

arriving that evening from Cleve-

with her. After spending a few

"A record of facing up to its
problems and doing what it can
about them will help the City of
Palacios in the future. The City of-
ficials in the past years have ac-
complished far more than could
have been expected of them during
this past five years. But they prob-
ably will not be able to do anything
about the City's bond record with-
out the wide understanding and
sympathy of Palacios' citizens.
"This is the story as I see it,
Mayor. The City of Palacios has
accomplished much. It needs so
much more to be done."
In other business the council ap-
proved a building permit for Rich-
ard V. Ottino, lots 16 and 17, block
83, valued at $8,100.
