nities are concerned. ’

For still other reasons, the idea of using a tax cut as a first busi-
ness stimulant has been losing support.
Even the Joint Economic Committee recommend^
no tax cut unless monetary controls, credit expansion and govern-
ment spending programs fail to stem the recession. ,
Sen. Paul Douglas (D ili.) files a lone dissent on this point. He
believes that a one-year, $100 increase in personal exemption or a cut
of from 20 to 15 per cent on the first $1,000 of net income would

committee would be a *erai-permanent
group composed of people who are dedi-
cated to the cause, who are wilting to
work for it and who possess at least a Cer-
tain amount of vision and influence.
The principal function* of the agency
would be to study ideas for community
improvement and development, deter-
mine what projects are most needed
and most feasible and the mean* by
which they might best he worked out.
Recommendations then would be sub-
mitted to the Chamber of Commerce or
other organization believed best quali-
fied to handle a particular assignment
effectively. t
The Greater Hopkins County Develop-
ment Committee was cTeated by .the Cham-
ber of Commerce and necessarily will re-
main largely an arm of that organization.
It also must possess at leas! a certain de-
gree of independence if it is to function
satisfactorily. Members should be free to
work individually if deemed advisable,
and the committee should be in a position
to do a steering job on »t« projects and &i*o
to apply a shove occasionally when things
are lagging.
Need for such a group is specifically
illustrated by a situation now existing in
the community progress field.
Two year* ago Plan Shively of the
Texas Power & Light Company conducted
»a eonprehefl&ivfeA-ominaBjkv
came up with a well-conceived program of
top local need*.*
When the program was completed,
however, difficulty wa« encountered find-
ing a suitable organization to cam- it out.
After a period in which it appeared the
plan might founded, various public and
civic groups' and individuals began pick-
ing up specific projects. Now virtually
everything at the top of the list either has
been accomplished or is well under way.
At a result of this unusual situation,
Sulphur Springs and Hopkins County
now need a new program. An organi-
zation which could both help plan such
a program and also take the primary
responsibility for its being carried out
would be a natural development toward
solving this problem.
That is what the Greater Hopkins
County Development Committee Is intend-
ed to do. We arc confident it can succeed
in this big task if it gets off to the right
kind of start.

Another highly promising newcomer
on the local scene thi« week i* the first an-
nual Northeast Texas Junior Livestock
Show, successor to the open event .which
has been Conducted herfe for a good many
years.
In its new pattern, the show simply
is following the popular trend for put-
ting the accent on youth. Sponsors cor-
rectly reasoned that an exposition with
a potential of attracting several thou-
sand young people from all over North-
east Texas was a better bet than one ap-
pealing primarily to a limited number
of adults.
The Northeast Texas Junior Livestock
Show promises to be a great event in the
future of Hopkins County. Everyone who
is interested in youngsters and agriculture

Exploratory Ship
Reports Catches
In 20-Day Cruise
Rockport, Tex., W)—The U. S.
Fish and Wildlife Service’s ex-
ploratory vessel Silver Bay caught
a total of 1,204 red snapper on
a recent 20-day cruise off this
area of the central Texas Gulf
coast.
It was a cruise of more than
passing significance to the snap-
per fishermen who have for years
sought the big fish with tricky
hook and line maneuvering.
The Silver Bay on this experi-
mental voyage tested a New Eng-
land style trawl, much like a great
shrimp net, to handle rough and
broken bottom. It sought to learn
if the method was practical for
red fishing.
The Silver Bay made 39 drags
on both broken and hard bottom
in depth ranging from 10 to 100
fathoms, said Harvey R. Bullis,
Jr., who is in charge of the gulf
exploratory work for the service.
Red snapper catches ranged
from nothing to 476 pounds per
haul.
Except for one drag at 23 fa-
thoms, all those made inside 40
fathoms contained less than 100
pounds of snapper.
Sullia said four drags during a
short period of calm weather on
Feb. S yielded 680 pounds ojl
snapper. Three drags made in the
same area during the next two
days in heavy seas brought up
540 pounds. The snapper weighed
from % to 26 pounds. The aver-
age was two pounds.
Billis said a few porgies, Ver-
million snapper and grouper were
also caught during the explora-
tion cruise but the fiah were small.
