Pleading for betterment of the
V state educational system ha said:
''f am for the common schools whether
J they' be b) your crest cities or In the
' j Temotr corners of the State. I am
! for your teachers training colleiea.
Just as I am for a training camp at
T the outbreak of a war. I am for a
great university one of the first
class as called for In our eonstitu
tion. The wealth of our great State
is able to support such. The shacka
that coyer tat oampua at Austin
should aud must be removed and the
school brought "up to that point of
efficiency where it will rank with the
t best.
Mr. DavidHon then SDoke of the
y Indorsement of his candidacy by or
' 'ganlzed labor. He declared he was
j proud of it just as former Senator
'' Charles Culberson was proud of the
. support that labor -bad always given
bin. Mr. Davidson added "you never
I i board that be was a bolshevik." '

tt4b(f'ard even that there was a yel-

Charges Answered. .
"He charges: First that it is the
'Non-Partisan league' of North
Dakota; second that they want to
remove all tax limit provided in the
constitution and bankrupt the coun-
. try with excessive taxation; third
j that they want to take over all insur-
JL t ance under State control ; and fourth
." J that they want to inaugurate a system
f of loans upon the credit of the State
- . - itbat would call for billions of dollars.
Ttese charges I do here and now
' j categorically deny and give you the
? farts as they exist.
"First. The farmers' union Is not
v i.from North Dakota). Like the -old
' 'fl!farmers' alliance . H had. Jts.hlrth
' M rlace on the Texas prairies.
The farm labor political conference
"iJa not a political organisation but is
"organized along the same -lines a the
j Texas Farm bureau. Its purpose as
i i set forth in its constitution is:
"This organization is exclusively a
knltua hndv. fixinc the Dric of OUT
j farm products at cost of production.
i ; plus a reasonsore prom nimuon
j jjiU other business organizations do.
- j; What It Means
ji - "To '.llustrate: If Texaa should
V j.pfoduce 16000000 bales of cotton in
1924 and the "price ahould tumble
i Jdown to 15 12 and 10 cents it would
;'be the plan of this organization to
; retire from the market the surplus
Vcrop and hold up the price to the
i'cost of production and then say.t
their members and the cotton gnawers
imf the followinx year that UHving a
' j surplus on hand the senpg must be

Fourth. The remaining charge
upon which Mr. Lynch Davidson seeks
to condemn the farm-labor political
conference ia that it deaires the State
to render aid to those seeking to ac
quire ana build homes.
"The federsl government is doing
this now through the federal land
banks and we hare heard no criticism
of it being socialistic but of all men
the mouth of Mr. Lynch Davidson is
closed on this point.
I am going to read yon from his
own utterances a little more than
four rears aao when ho was runnina
tor me ncaie senate against your rei-
low townsman senator Charles Mur
phy. Ired you from his' platform
as contained in hla announcement
printed in the Houston Chronicle in
the early part of 1020:
" 'I favor legislation designed to
more closely connect the producer
ana the consumer.
'I favor legislation that win en
able the tenant farmer or any man
wanting a farm or a bome to acquire
cne same tnrojign state aid upon easy
terms of psyment'.
If It Is socialistic todsy to render
i aid. and danaeroua. whv was it
Vft so four years ago when after
Murphy had beaten him in Harris
county by nearly 600 rotes he was
able to ride into the State aenate
through the support of the farmers
of Fort Bend county on the above
plank?

T. W. then paid hia respects to
Lynch's reforeststion plan quoting
from Lynch's opening speech urging
such "tax exemptions and aid aa may
be necessary." He quoted Lynch as
saying that he meant only to lend
the ownera the tax money until the
timber was cut He then told of sn
instance where be (T. W.) saw the
land of a little farmer who had sus
tained crop failures sold for taxes
and another instance of the land of a
minor whose mother and father were
dead sold for taxes and declared that
if the ownera of cut-over land were to
have their tax money loaned to them
why not loan it to this little farmer
and the minor.
Next T. W. Bailed into Lroeh's
comparison of the appropriations of
the legislature over which he (Lynch K
presided ana the one over which be
(T. W.) presided.
8svlaf SfOM000.
"The differences between the ex
penditures of the two legislatures
represented toe diner en ce in the ap-
propriation for the caase of educa-
tion and eleemosynary Institutions.'
T. W. declared. He aaid it waa it
waa 18000000 in each year of 1922
1923 sad 1924 to annnlement the
school fund an appropriation of some
thing more than Sl.000.ooo to take
better care of the Insaae. Other ex-
penditures were mentioned and T. W.
addded. "thus we account for the $10-
00000ft difference between the appro-
priatioha of .these two legislature."
l-and be aaid. "Now. Lynch in the
name of all the gods at once tell the
people of rexas u tnta is-tae money
that yon have been talking so. much
about Intending to save."
. T. W. then assailed Lyneh'e elate
for credit for saving the State rail-
road from Bosk to Palestine. After
detailing Lynch's claims he said:
That Stat Railroad.
1 believe ia stvina credit to whom
credit is dne When the world war
waa over the war department had on
hand a vast amount of material in
cluding a large quantity of steel rails
designed for the army ia Franca. It
seems that it waa not desirable to put
these reus oa the market la competi-
tion with the steel companies lour
maror the Hon. Oscar Holcombe
with hi Business sagacity and devo
tion to the interest of the eity of
Houston secured enough of theaa free
rails to baild line of railroad to ths
ship channel and he fat waa that pro-
posed to certain railroad magnates in
the BUto of. Texaa that they take
ever the Rtate railroad and operate
It and informed them that the road
could be repaired by procuring this
material from- the federal aeve ra

State by the war department to relay
the track on that road.
"Again the federal government In
distributing certain money among the
railroads to make up certain esti-
mated losses sustained by them dur-
ing the war by reason of government
control paid to this railroad $.14-
953.60. This money together with
that appropriated by the State ac-
counts for the cash on hand.
"I am glad that the State railroad
has been leased and is being oper-
ated even at a loss; but the public
should not be misled into the belief
that a man is such a financial wizlrd
as to be able to take a short line
broke railroad completely rebuild it
and accumulate (40000000 out of Its
earnings for not a word of it is
true!"
T. W. closed his sddrees with an
appeal for constitutional government.

to a conference with a republican ma-
jority but under a threat from dem-
ocratic leader that if reported with
radical change from the measure as

modeled. Senate republican organisation
leaders turned down a suggestion
from the democrat that tbey be

The conference which hss been
called to meet tomorrow ia now com-
posed of three republicans and two
democrat each from ths house and
senate. j
The vital provisions of the bill are
In dispute and must be adjusted by
the conference. The senate amend
ments are the most dlstssteful to the
a&nlnietration and with a republican
majority In control of the aenate
conference it ie considered likely
that the report will be framed to auit

Many attending the meeting will be

The platform tbey will sponsor
urged that the national platform in-
clude a pledge to strengthen the pro
hibitlon and anti-liquor laws. Other
proposed planka were to request eon-
gressmea to oppose centralisation of

president nomination by majority In-
stead of two-thirda rule: decrease In
number of government bureaus and
lower taxes.
The women also Indorsed Joha C.

President Coolldge alao has made

sion for full publicity of returns. This
provision however was proposed in
the senate by Senator Norrls Nebras
ka republican insurgent leader and
tboucb backed almost solidly by
democrsts it is not believed there will
be an absolute demand by the coali-

In connection with the talk of a
prospective presidential veto of the
bill. Senator Simmons anounced to
day that If In that event a move waa
made" to put through a reaolutloa
providlug for a 25 per cent reduction
on income taxea payable thl year be
would amend the resolution to con-
form more to the democratio Income
tax schedule now in the bill. He in
dicated also that an effort would be
made to Include In the resolution pro-
vision for further tax reductions psr-
ticularly on the excise rates. This
he argued would bring about a tax
reduction on a more scientific scale.
Such a move would precipitate tha
entire tax fight over again and in the
opinion of some might delay an ac-
tual ahowdown before June IS when
second instsllments are due.

NEW YORK. Mar 13. Tha super
natural birth of Jesus Christ bis
bodily resurrection and bis secession
to Hesvea. are 'facts noon wbch
Christianity stands or fslls" Bishop
wiuism i. Manning of me rrotest-
ant Episcopal church Insisted ia his
aaarsss to tn leist annual conven-
tion of tha diocese of New fork.
Spurred on by two resolutions by
which fundamentalists hoped to carry
the fight againat modernists in the
church to the floor of tba oonventlon
before ths dosing session tomorrow.
Bishop Manning vigorously affirmed
that any rejection of the supernatural
from the gospel meant tb rejection
of tb gospel Itself.
Assailing the impression given ths
"truth-seeking" young men and womss
of today that the great facts and
truths of ths creed ar unimportant
or unworthy of belief Bishop Man-
ning said the clergy moat teach the
supreme truth of Jesus Christ
"If some of the young people hare
doubts" he declared "we ahall help
them by showing the full truth of the
foapel. not by offering them thl
ruth In reduced or weskened form.
The work of the church is to lift tht
thought of the time up to the level
of her Divine message not down to
tb level of tha thought of tha time.''
