President Roosevelt has promised
to visit the Texas Centennial Central
Exposition in Dallas next year. If it
is humanly possible and he does
come, it will be a big day for the
Centennial.

A Baltimore Federal judge has
held the utilities bill unconstitutional.
The courts are punching the New
Deal fore and aft. It all indicates
that there are some very poor law-
yers either in Congress or on the
bench.

Celina streets were bladed Mon-
day and much improved thereby.
They were just damp enough for the
blade to do good work. This work
will be appreciated by those who
have occasion to drive over the
streets.

The Record editor’s typewriter
was turned over and broken first of
the week and we had to drag out the
old Oliver to type the matter that
goes into the Record this week. The
machine is a little rusty in its or-
thography as well as in other ways
and its spelling may not be exactly
according to Webster. There is one
thing about the old Oliver, howev-
er. It is a whole lot like the model T
Ford—it never fails to go.

3 Monday man penetrated the
stratosphere to a greater altitude
than ever before. Albert W. Stevens
and Orville Anderson, from a point
near Rapid City, N. D., ascended in
a specially constructed balloon to a
distance of fourteen miles above the
surface of the earth. They took
along instruments to aid them in
gathering, all of the scientific infor-
mation possible and returned to earth
without the slightest mishap, bring-
ing wih them information which it
is hoped will prove of great value to
the world.

Congressman Sam Rayburn, just
back from Washington, brings in-
formation that he was assured that
the government would make %n ap-
prOpi’iation for soundings and for
making plans and specifications for
a dam and hydro-electric plant on
Red River near Denison. Mr. Ray-
burn would not commit himself fur-
ther that to say that he believes this
assures the building of the dam,
which would mean the employment of
4.000 or 5,000 men for a period of
three and a half years. The dam, if
built, will be 150 feet high and about
11.000 feet long. If Mr. Rayburn puts
this over, he will have accomplished
something of immense benefit to a
large number of constituents.

Mrs. Hubbard O’Dell’s yellow shep-
herd dog has worked out a pretty
good system in these times when the
depression is deep and hard to get
out of. This dog has formed the habit
of coming to Clint Carey’s market
for his dog meat. It has proved so
successful that the canine has waxed
fat, but of late he has overworked
the system to some extent and shows
up at the market door several times
a day and stands about waiting for
his handout. He now comes so often
that he does not always get his meat
even after lingering long and looking
hungry. When he does get it, wrap-
ped in paper, as has been Clint’s cus-
tom to fix it up, he does not do as
some greedy dogs and devour it on
the spot, but takes it home before
dining. He probably got the idea
from watching the operation of the
relief system.

The discharging of Ranger Capt.
Tom Hickman by the Public Safety
Commission has created quite a stir
throughout the state. Supporters ot
Hickman charge that politics is be-
ing played by those jealous of Hick-
man, while his opponents charge that
he does not fit into the plan. There
are many insinuations, but as yet the
public has not been let in on the real
cause of Hickman’s discharge. The
legislature voted down a resolution
to investigate the matter. Capt. J.
W. McCormick was appointed by the
commission to succeed Hickman, who
as he prepared to go hunting, had
little to say, but said he would have
plenty to say later.

J. A. REED, Agent
Austin, Nov. 14.—Both houses of
the legislature approved conference
report on the old-age pension bill,
and sent it to Gov. Allred for signa-
ture as the special session took its
last week-end adjournment. The ses-
sion ends automatically Thursday.
The pension bill carries an appro-
priation of $25,000,000 out of a spe-
cial pension bill, which, as this is
written, is penniless. Senate debate
on the house omnibus tax bill, esti-
mated to raise $5,000,000 annually,
with a fourth going to the school
fundi under constitutional require-
ments, was still under way, with fi-
nal passage doubtful. Pensions are
to begin July 1 under the bill passed,
so indications are there will be no
special session immediately, even if
revenue for pensions is not made
available.
The bill providing salaries for cer-
tain fee officers was also in confer-
ence, with every prospect for early,
passage before final adjournment.
The bill regulating liquor, likewise
was in the hands of a dry-dominated
conference, with passage virtually
assured. It provides no sale by the
drink except for beer and 14 per cent
wine, hard liquors to be sold in un-
broken packages thru licensed stores.
Whether die-hard wets would refuse
to give the bill the necessary two-
thirds majority, and prevent the law
taking immediate effect, thus losing
a milion dollars in liquor tax reve-
nue to the state, remained about the
only question.

Last week, Texas rangers raided
a notorious gambling resort in Tar-
rant County. They were acting on
specific personal instructions from
the governor. For eight months, All-
red has been trying to get the ran-
gers to close this place. The great-
est secrecy surrounded the plans for
the raid. Two rangers who had been
on duty in south Texas came secretly
to Austin, conferred with the gover-
nor, then left by automobile, taking
the road to Houston, to prevent the
gamblers being tipped off in advance
as they have been in the past on
every attempt to raid the place.
By a roundabout road, the ran-
gers went to Fort Worth, drove to
the place on the Dallas pike, cut a
wire fence and crawled half a mile
across a field to surprise the gamb-
lers. Charges of operating a gamb-
ling house were filed against five
operators. There may be a shakeup
in personnel of the ranger force as
a result of repeated failures to raid
this place successfully.
•
Another notorious gambling resort
in south Texas has ceased gambling
operations, and its proprietor, a
kingpin gambling racketeer, is said
to have moved to New Orleans, be-
cause of Gov. Allred’s war on gamb-
ling dives. This place, operated for
years in defiance of all anti-gamb-
ing laws, was closed by the personal
efforts of the governor, who sent a
trustworthy member of the rangers
there and told him to sit in the
place every night until it closed.
With the ranger sitting there, the
gamblers couldn’t gamble, and with
an orchestra and floor show that
cost $2500 a week they couldn’t run
indefinitely at a heavy loss. The
ranger sat there every night for a
month. Then the boss gamber threw
in the towel and closed up, announc-
ing he would leave the state.

Sen. Morris Sheppard, with a grey
tinge to his once red hair, but other-
wise as youthful and vigorous as ev-
er, served notice on Texas that he
is a candidate for re-election on one
issue—support of the Democratic
New Deal and President Franklin D.
Roosevelt—at Temple last week. The
occasion was a hugh gathering to
honor the senator and Gov. Allred
for their aid in making possible fed-
eral appropriations for the great
Brazos Valey reclamation project.
More than 1,000 prominent men and
women from the upper end of the
valley to the coast, participated, paid
high tribute to the governor and the
senator for their untiring efforts.
It was the first public gathering
attended by both Allred and Shep-
pard since the federal oil control
wars in Washington, and political ob-
servers, hearing Allred pay glowing
tribute to Sheppard, declared the
rumors that Allred might oppose
Sheppard for re-election next year,
finally dead. (They were specifically
denied in this column weeks ago.)
I Sheppard spoke for an hour, giv-
| ing a masterly summary of the New
: Deal and its achievements from AAA
j to WPA, and casting his lot unre-
! servedly with Roosevelt,
j “The New Deal is a song of broth-
erhood and a hymn of humanity, and
J Franklin D. Roosevelt has done more
[ for the common man than any other
j president who ever sat in the White
House,” he perorated. Allred led the available in
deafening ovation. Political wise-
acres marked up the odds on Shep-
pard’s election to about 10 to 1. He
pointedly did not mention repeal.
Thruout Texas, communities! are
engage in raising the funds for Will
Rogers’ memorials. Here is an un-
published, authentic account of how
Will Rogers wrote his first newspa-
per material for pubication.
In 1920, Charles H. (Chuck) New-
ell, well-known Texas newspaper ex-
ecutive of Dallas, Texarkana, Austin
and elsewhere, was editor of News-
paper Enterprise ssociation, a na-
tional feature servee. He’d heal'd
Rogers’ wisecracks in vaudevile, and
conceived the idea of having him
write a dozen or so a day on the Re-
publican natonal convention in June.
They went over with a bang, and at
the Democratic convention in San
Francisco later, Newell again hired
Will to wisecrack. That was the first
acquaintance the great American
news-reading public had with Rogers,
and from that modest start sprang
Rogers' voluminous writings, his
daily news feature and his magazine
articles that were eagerly read by
scores of millions.
“He was as nervous about how his
stuff was going to ‘get over’ with the
newspaper readers as a high-school
girl,” said Newell. “And he grinned
with joy when the reports showed it
was clicking all over the country.”
Anouncemesit Day Sales
Chevrolet Cars New High
Capacity production of the recent-
ly announced new 1936 Chevrolets
throughout the rest of the year is
forecast by reports from dealers all
over the country, to the effect that
sales on announcement day, Nov. 2,
broke all records in Chevrolet his-
tory.
The same enthusiastic public re-
sponse was evident at the New York
automobile show, according to word
received in Detroit from W. E. Hol-
ler, vice president and general sales
manager of the Chevrolet Motor Co.,
who with other executives of the
company is attending the annual ex-
hibit there. Chevrolet is displaying
its new product both in Grand Cen-
tral Palace and at a special General
Motors showing in the Waldorf-As-
toria.
“Output will have to be maintained
around 100,000 units a month to keep
pace with the demand that is evi-
dent,” said Mr. Holler. “We had more
than 60,000 cars in the hands of our
10,000 dealers on announcement day,
but orders taken so far have great-
ly exceeded the supply. We shall be
able to make prompt deliveries, how-
ever, for we were in full production
before the cars were announced, and
they were rolling off the assembly
lines at a faster rate than ever be-
fore at this season.”

the perfected hydraulic brakes, seem
to have created the liveliest enthu-
siasm among dealers and public
alike, Mr. Holler reported. In the
Standard series, a completely re-
styled Fisher body with solid steel
turret top seems to have captured
the public fancy more completely
than any other single thing. The fact
that a full line of body styles is now
this lowest price range
is also making a hit.
COLLIN COUNTY NEWS
Last week-end the Collin County
jail at McKinney had 54 inmates, the
largest number it had contained for
many months. Thirty->one of them
were taken off a freight train at Pla-
no. Deputy Sheriff Arbie Sparlin had
quite a task- finger-printing his
guests. The law permits such prison-
ers to be held for ten days while
they are finger-printed and their
prints sent out over the country to
peace officers'to determine if any of
them are wanted.
The A. C. Bullock service station
and garage at McKinney was burg-
larized early Thursday moiming of
last week. Tl*e cash register was
found badly battered in the north-
west part of McKinney. The owner
said it contained only two nickels
and one of them was found in the
building.
Polk Oates, brother of Ben and W.
D. Oates of McKinney, died in Okla-
homa City Wednesday of last week.
The McKinney brothers attended the
