TYLER C. OF C. ANNUAL
MEETING HELD MONDAY
r " •
Banquet Finds “Most Useful Cit-
izens;’* Directors Installed;
Officers Named
The 31st annual meeting of the Ty-
ler Chamber of Commerce was held
Monday evening in the ball room of
the Blackstone Hotel, and the event
was attended by more than 200 of the
most prominent citizens of Tyler and
by many notables in business and pro-
fessional circles from other sections
of the state, and from other states.
The meeting was marked by an elab-
orate banquet, which was in keeping
with the custom established many
years ago of having a “feed” at the
annual meetings of the body.
President W. M. Roberts had his
annual message printed in substan-
tial form and placed in the hands of
every member present. The report
shows that Tyler Chamber of Com-
merce has been a busy organization
indeed during the year which has just
closed. Details of its activities and
of its future plans and purposes are
set forth in the document by Pres-
Roberts, and it can be said that this
annual report is replete with citations
of concrete achievements of peat val-
us to the community and with a sur-
vey of Tyler opportunities which must
furnish enduring foundation upon
which to base the most cheerful and
optimistic outlook for the future.
Nathan Adams Chief Speaker
Hon. Nathan Adams of Dallas, one
of the leading bankers of the Nation,
and particularly outstanding among
those of his calling in all the South-
west, was the chief speaker of the
evening. ’ He was introduced by Hon.
Gus F. Taylor. The address of Mr.
Adams gave emphasis to many of the
great movements that may challenge
our people in the further develop-
ment of our natural resources and ip
the realization of those conditions
that make for the best in our cultu-
ral and material status, Mr. Adams
warned the people not to become so
absorbed with oil development that
they would lose sight of the more im-
portant consideration of continued ag-
ricultural development. He stated
that long after the last barrel of oil
has been drained from the earth in
East Texas, there will be need for a
higher agricultural development.
Most Useful Citizens
In keeping with a custom establish-
ed some years ago by his publication,
Col. Carl Estes of the Courier-Times
and Telegraph presented gifts to the
most useful citizens of the communi-
ty for the year, the choice having
been determined by ballots clipped
from his papers the preceding weeks.
These ballots indicated that retiring
President W. M. Roberts scored high-
est among the men and that Miss
Nette Shultz, Smith county home
demonstration agent had received
highest vote among the women. To
each was given a beautiful wrist
watch.
Officers for the ensuing year were
chosen as follows: Tom H. DeLay,
president; Gordon Simpson, first vice
president; A. R. Wood, treasurer;
Russell S. Rhodes, secretary-manag-
er. Successors tfi those retiring from
the directorate this year by consti-
tutional provision were chosen as fol-
lows: G. D. Connally, Shuford Cous-
ins, H. M. Connally, J. D. Jones, Gor-
don Simpson, Roy E. Smith and J. D.
Stringer. Former directors retiring
at this time by constitutional proviso
ion were C. W. Boon, Sam R. Greer,
W. M. Roberts, W. B. Walsh, C. J.
Brogan, Tomas G. Pollard and J. P.
Williford.

Pine Springs Women Speak Their
Minds to Legislators of the County
TO THE HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE TEXAS LEGISLA-
TURE FR0M SMITH COUNTY:
The members of the Pine Springs Missionary Union, of the
Woman’s Home Demonstration club, and of the Parent-Teacher As-
sociation in joint session respectfully protest against the passage of
House Bill No. 1 5 7 which proposes to legalize race-track gambling
and repealing laws and parts of laws now on our Statute books
that would be in conflict with the proposed measure; and we urge
you as our representatives to use every available means for its de-
feat. „
The inevitable result of the passage of such a law would be the
debauching of the citizenship of our State.
Respectfully signed,
MRS. J. S. BROWN. Pres., W. M. U.
MRS. T. O. NUNN, Secty W. M. U.

MISS MAGGIE HOWELL, Secty. W. H. D.
MRS O. L. FORD, Pres. P. T. A.
Pine Springs, Smith County, Texas, Feb. 9, I93J.
Editor’s Note—Our Editor spent
from Thursday evening till Saturday
evening in Austin and, among other
things, he discussed this proposed
measure with one of our representa-
tives, Hon. J. S. Magee. He was not
able to find representative Hanson in
Austin, and it was reported to him
that Senator Pollard had left Austin
on Thursday at about noon, having
again been called home by urgent
private business. Representative Ma-
gee stated that he thought the pro-
posed measure had but little chance
of being enacted into law. Other rep-
representatives from various parts of
the State with whom we talked on
this subject confirmed the opinion of
Representative Magee that, even, if
the measure could or should pass both
houses of the Legislature, it could
never get by the veto of Governor
Sterling who is both a plain, practi-
cal man and a Christian gentleman.
Moreover, upon the proposition of
letting one’s legislators know how
one feels about measures pending in
the Legislature, or likely to be con-
sidered by that body, this Editor
wants to commend the action of these
most excellent women of Pine Springs
who while speaking their individual
minds are speaking as organizations.
There is no law against petitioning
congress, the Legislature, or any body
of public officials charged with the

Whitehouse Team Loses to
Stephen F. Austin Reserves
In one of the last games at home
the Whitehouse Wildcats were de-
feated 34 to 33 by the Stephen F.
Austin Reserves from Nacogdoches,
Mondav night, before a large crowd
of fans. It was one of the fastest
and cleanest games witnessed in the
Whitehouse gym this season. There
was never more than two points dif-
ference in the score thruout the game,
the locals being in the lead most of
the time.
It was plainly seen that the White-
house team was better coached, than
the Lumberjack Reserves, but the
visitors were taller, therefore keep-
ing the- ball in . their possession a
great deal of the time. The Wild-
cats have a wonderful team and they
are praised for their sportsmanlike
playing, which they have kept up all
the season. They play hard, clean
ball whether they meet defeat or not.
They recently held the famed Na-
tional Champ Hornets of Athens to
a close game, losing to them by a
small margin. :
had hoped this week to write a col-
umn of our observations respecting
the Legislature and the things we
heard and saw while in Austin last
week. However, for three weeks we
have been “wrestling with’’ the flu or
grippe, or some other mean affliction
of the race, which hag almost forced
us to take the count almost every day
during that period. We may write
something about our Legislature and
legislative methods later—if we feel
physically good enough, or temper-
mentally mean enough. But let us
encourage our Legislators to do those
things which appeal to us as being
right and for the good of the com-
monwealth—and if their respective
positions on any proposed measures
are not such as we can approve, it
will help our law-makers to know our
views. Often we elect men to make
our laws—and then set them adrift,
so to speak. They cannot know the
collective .mind of their constituents
on many questions that bob up in the
Legislature—and often, even when
their constituents dd write them re-
specting measures with which the
Legislature as a whole will have to
deal, they discover such cross cur-
rents of desires and such a diversity
of opinions among their constituents
that they (the law-makers) just have
to make a long guess as to what th©
majority of their constituents prefer.
But in matters of major importance
such situations do not often arise. In
this “legalized race-track gambling”
matter, however, all the sophistry and
all the wiles of that sinister and self-
ish group sponsoring the measure as-
suredly must be too apparent for any
of. Smith county’s representatives to
fall for it. We commend the Pine
Springs women.
LONGVIEW DEPOSITS
INCREASE A MILLION
Longview, Feb. 9.—Increased busi-
ness activity in this city with the dis-
covery of oil is indicated by the fact
that bank deposits have increased ov-
er $1,000,000 in slightly more than a
month. On the first of the year, the
Longview banks had on deposit $1,-
532,000. On Feb. 3, deposits were
