Young States Platform
About December 1st last I announc-
ed my candidacy for Governor of
Texas, At that time I stated I would
announce later a platform of princi-
ples that I would advocate.
Since then personal matters have
engrossed my time and attention and
I have not had the opportunity to
submit this platform. Then, too, the
Legislature has been ealled in extra-
ordinary session to consider several
important matters and it is probably
premature to discuss at this time the
things now being considered by the
Legislature.
the crying need of our people is relief
from the burden of taxation. Condi-
tions have arisen under our present
tax laws by reason of which our farm-
ers, home owners, and stockmen are
unable to pay their taxes. Delinquen-
cy exists everywhere and there are
foreclosure suits on every hand. This
should be rectified.
1 advocate as one of my major pro-
positions a change in our present tax
laws so as to lighten the burdens of
those who bear them unjustly and
place a proper share upon those who
nave acquired and become rich in our
resources of oil, gas, sulphur and
other minerals.
These great reservoirs of natural
resources have not heretofore contrib-
uted their just tax share towards the
support of our institutions and

As I view the situation at present,
to meet this situation.
I shall further advocate a material
reduction in the expenses of Govern-
ment. To this end I am unalterably
opposed to creating any new Depart-
ments of Government, and shall op-
pose increases in salaries of official
positions and shall with all the energy
at my command oppose further com-
mitments of the credit of the State.
Not only should taxes be reduced
and redistributed, but a halt must be
called in spending public funds, so
that our people may have at least a
breathing spell in our present finan.

In the development of these natural

We must have party organization. I
shall make this campaign in the In-

trust that we may rise above the fac-

in the past few years. Our Party to
have power must be a reunited Party.
To this end I shall devote my best
efforts so that the vexing problems
that confront our people may he

people. Very truly yours,

$200 Per Acre?
Every now and then a news item appears stating that a certain man’s
farm was sold for $200 or more per acre.
Just what are the reasons why any farm should be so highly valued?
Good land? Sure! Good buildings? Certainly! Well cared for? Of
course! The answer to these questions is granted, but lots of farms
fulfill these requirements and yet do not bring such a price.
How is the Farm LOCATED? Ah, There’s the Answer.
It is on a good highway. It enjoys exceptionally good schools,
supported by a prosperous community. It has convenient bank-
ing facilities. There is a nearby market where all farm products
can be sold at good prices.
There are progressive stores well stocked with good merchandise in all
lines, and easily accessible.
/
Since the town makes the farm valuable, then isn’t it good business
sense that the farmer exert every possible effort to improve the town?
A good Bank, a good school, good churches,
a good newspaper, a community with social
advantages are made possible through a com-
munity of business institutions which work
together. The reason you enjoy many of the
things which you do enjoy, and the reason
there is VALUE attached to what you possess
is because of their existance. MERIT Mer-
chants help make values and the many things
which make for a TOWN.
