Governor Urges
Texans to Plant
Trees and Shrubs
Governor Allan Shivers has pro-j
claimed January as "Plant Texas J
Month.” Conservation "f our nat-
u al resources, and particularly our j
.-oil, is one of the foremost prnh-, J TV'
lent* facing Texas as well as the
n st of the United States, the gov-
ernor said.
Barren and blighted land can he
made green, beautiful and product-
ive through the wise planting of
trees, shrubs and grasses. Such
planting, in addition to bringing
many Irene fits to Texas today, he
said, will pay rich dividends to
future generations.
The month of January usually is
an ideal time to plant trees and
many varieties of shrubs and other
plants. "I uHrc all Texans to join
in plnnting vegetation on bare land,
thus helping to make our state
greener and more beautiful,” the
governor advised.

Sets Pattern
Dan Lay. Wildlife Biologist
specializing in quail for the (lame
and Fish Commission, marks the
end i.f the hobwhitc sea*' n with
some straight forward suggestions
Tor helping along the comeback of
this prolific little game bird.
In observations sent to the Dir-
ector of Wildlife Restoration from
his Deep East Texas experiment
headquarters, Lay stressed the re-
sponsibilities of hunters, game
management technicians and land
owners.
He made it | articularly clear
that the quail themselves are jiu*t
awaiting the opportunity to restore
normal populations by being pro-
vided habitat.
In his latest contribution to the
“Bobwhite Hot Stove League,” (-ay
tiaeed the decline of the once great
quail populace and said with fin-
ality; "The basic conceut that
quail populations are controlled by
food and cover can’t be overempha-
sized. This may be old stuff to
some, but there are many who have
not fully accepted it. It can’t las
repeated too often. Troubles deve-
lop when it is ignored.”
The East Texas technician de-
scribed the magnitude of the chal-
lenge and wrote that only the mats
response of the disillusioned hunt-
ers can get the job done. He went
on:
“Responsibility for improving
habitat needs to be deiined. Thi
quail belong to the public and pub-
lic agencies regulate their harvest.
Taxes on hunters also provide
funds for research and manage-
ment. But it does not follow that
the quail crop depends entirely on
the State. Little, if any credit is

reason that the matter is being
discussed.
The fact that such unpleasant
conversations are taking place in
Administration circle should not
cause any alarm. The discussions
are simply precautionary planning
'tiVm'b 1 and not prompted by any inside
,isi in- information.
The reason for the conversations
at the present time is that the De-
fense Production Act Expires June
30 and before long C'ongres will
consider Administration recom-
mendations that the act be extend-
ed for two years. If emergency
authority is to be given the presi-
dent to deal with disasters, the
logical legislation in which to em-
body such authority would be the

problems in other sections of

starving condition do not suivive
the strains of trapping, handling
and transportation in sufficient
numbers to justify the costs in-
volved.
“Lastly, a special hunting season
is unfortunately not feasible. Deer
in advanced stages of emaciation
will not interest hunters. Even
though they did, arrangements to
prepare legally prescribed permits
and for the contacts between land-
owners and thousands of hunters
would tuke several weeks. By such
time, starvation would already
have taken its heavy toll. In gen-
eral, the landowners who took full
advantage of existing legal provi-
sions for harvest of surplus deer
will conn* through the crisis with
adequate brood stocks. Many of
those who did not avail themselves
of the same provisions still would
not do so.
"We fully realize the tragic sit-
uation and its implications. We
naturally are in sympathy with all
those who so sincerely wish to al-
leviate the deer losses. At the
same time, we must weigh realities
against sentiment and try to pro-
ceed accordingly."
"Nepotism" means, favoritism to
relatives.
Repot ts of this effort by the
planners have spread rather wide-
ly and more emphasis has been
placed upon the emergency auth-
ority to control prices, wages and
rents than upon the real objective
of Administration thinking ... to
keep the economy running in the
event of atomic attack.
THE BUDGET: Its submission
to Congress created little surprise
as the details were reasonably well

sary for the President to submit a

group is fearful that the budget
