Under instruction of the last
Legislature $200,000 of the
money normally going to the
welfare board for pension pay-
ments each month, has been
applied on retirement of the
debt. The final installment is
$180,000.
When these payments were
begun the Board ordered a
horizontal slash of $6 in previ-
ous pension payments. Now
there is little hope that the en-
tire $6 will be returned.
How much will be added to
August’s average payment of
$10.86 will not be determined
until it is known just what the
Federal mtaching agency will
consider “need.1
The last Texas Legislature
instructed the Board not to
consider ability of relatives to
contribute to support of a pen-
sioner in computing his need.

120,000 names.

Miss Frances Goff of Kenedy
j is new receptionist for Gov. W.
j Lee O’Daniel’s office. The pret-
ty greeter is not a stranger
about the State Capitol. She

tives stenographer in the 45th
and 46th legislatures, and will
do stenographic work in the
Governor’s office as well as re
ceiving visitors,
j An addition to the staff of
i the Secretary of State’s office
| is Kitty Williamson of Brown-
' wood, better known to the
i Texas public as “Texas Rose."
It was under that name that
she became a popular soloist
with the W. Lee O’Daniel hill

band members who did not go
over to “Sadler’s Stringsters”
for the recent political cam-
paign.

Homer Leonard of McAllen,
former editor and publisher of
the McAllen Monitor, claims a
majority of the members of the
new House of Representatives
have pledged him their votes
for the apeakership.
That would assure his elec-
tion on the first ballot. Leon-
ard will be 42 years old on
Jan. 14, 1941, which is the
day the Legislature will con-
vene.
Leonard will be beginning
his sixth two-year term in the
House. He was elected in 1930
a good government ticket.
In 1982 the good government
ticket was not permitted on
the ballot, Leonard’s friends
staged a write-in campaign
and he was re-elected. Since he
has been democratic nominee
for representative four times.
In his 10 years service he has
headed four important house
committees. He has been
chairman of the committees on
revenue and taxation, on ap-
propriations, on privileges,
suffrage and elections, and on
conservation and resbtmation.
Frequently he has presided
over the House as acting
speaker and, in fact, was in
the chair during last session al-
most a third as much of the
time as Speaker R. E. Morse. -
