to work toward adjustment
freight rate differentials.
To accomplish its objectives the
group planned for the setting np
of volunteer food and nutrition
committees in every Texes county
and incorporated town, according
to the chairmen, Mildren Horton,
who is vice director of the Texas
A. and M. College Extension
Service. She explains that these
committees will be asked to assist
with in-service training for people
working in food establishments
and to work toward expansion of
the community school lunch pro-
gram and the food stamp plan.
Other objectives included in the
plan are: promotion of consumer
and producer cooperatives, estab-
lishment of diet clinics in connec-
tion with hospitals and medical
clinks, and cooperation in the Food
for Freedom program of the state
and county USDA Defense Boards
to assure adequate food prodve-
tion for domestic uses and land-
lease needs.
Sotting up of a state nutrition
committee for Negroea likely will
be one result of the meeting, ac-
I cording to Miss Horton.
A sub-committee <m research
pledged to find new ways to in-
crease use of Texas-produced food.
Another sub-committee, one devot-
ed to education in nutrition, will
wort: toward helping all Texas
school children know what consti-
tutes a good diet and its importance
to their physical and mental wel-
fare. The necessity of universal
education in the principals of nu-
trition was emphasised in an ad-
dress to the committee by Dr.
Homer P. Rainey, president of the
University of Texas.
Dr. J. M. Coleman of the State
Health Department, Austin; Dr.

State College for Women, Denton;

Vocational Education, Austin; and

urged to take
a tip from PUpeye in a
port of entry, pay the duty of 42
cents, a bushel, and still have a
margin of 16 cents per bushel over
Canadian prices,” Colgin said.
This indicates the price of wheat
in the United States is approxi-
mately 67 cents a bushel higher
than foreign wheat, but the dif-
ference in the average price and
67 cents is what farmers would
be receiving if there were no farm
program to protect the U. S.
price, he said.
A LESSON IN
hCliSE APPROACH
A Ft. Riley ca/a'ry corpora i
was instructing a new recruit on
approaching a horse from the
rear.
“Run your hands down his legs,
like this,” said the corporal as
he demonstrated his method, “then
place your hand on his haunch and
push him off balance if he kicks
you.” i
“Whet if I don’t get him off
balance?” asked the recruit.
“Then,” said tha corporal in
honeyed tones, “just pick yourself
up and try it again.”
TOO LATE
It is said that people who stam-
mer often sing well. A deckhand
who suffered from an impediment
in his speech ran into his captain
on the bridge of the ship daring
a storm and blurted out:
“P-Pleass, S-S-Sir-”
“For goodness sakes, say it,”
demanded the captain. “If you
can’t say it, sing it.”
The deckhand took a long breath
and sang: “Should auld acquaint-
ance be forgot and never brought
to mind; the first mate’s fallen
overboard; he’s half e mile be-
hind.”

03 Allowable Raised 39,285
Bairds Daily For November
The Texas Railroad Commission# 611,422 (estimate).
Thursday authorised an increase
in oil allowables for Texas total-
ing £9,286 barrels daily for No-
vember.
The allowable was estimated at
1,683,288 barrels daily, compared
with 1,498,«96 for October, but,
with deductions for eight shut-
down days also ordered and nor-
mal failure of some areas to pro-
duce the amount authorized, the
commission estimated actual out-
put would average 1,479,618.
The latter figure was 24,918
barrels above the estimate of mar-

this id’ the beginning of a series
of large gifts from friends of the
college.”
Leases on more than l.OMkacns
of oil lands in the Silver Valley
field of Coleman county were in-
volved in the transaction benefit-
ting McMurry. They were sold
by Mr. Jay with part of the con-.
aideration to be paid in oil.
States Oil corporation will pay
the $72,260 as the oil is produced.

Legionnaires to
Make Armistice
Day Plank Tonight
There’ll be important business
jto be given attention at the regu-
I lar meeting of the American Le-
| gion tonight, it is announced, and
I a full attendance of the menpber-
! ship is urged.,
| Final plans are to be worked
out at this time for the Armistice
Day banquet. ,
Say you saw it in the Leader
ket demand for Texas oil in No-
vember made by the United States
Bureau of Mines.
The shutdown days ordered for
all TeXfs fields with a few excep-
tions for special operating condi-
tions were Nov. 2, 8, 9, 11, 16, 23,
27 and 30. In October there were
nine dosings.
The general increase permitted
minute boosts in allowables for
most fields, according to the estab-
lished proration formula, and only
two bask allowables of fields were
changed, those of old Ocean and
Conn oco-Driscoll being reduced.
Various adjustments cause minor
decreases elsewhere.
The bask allowable of Old Ocean
was reduced from 22,741 barrels
daily to 20,286 and that of Conoco-
Driscoll from 3,944 to 3,641. The
former to prevent gas wastage
and the latter to conform to a
court order.
By districts, only the Gulf Coast
showed a reduction in allowable.
Comparative basic allowables by
districts on Sept. 1, Oct. 1, and
Nov. 1, were: .
Southwest Texas, 318,328, 321,-
960 and 322^66.
Gulf Coast, 367,027, 357,859 and
351,657.
East Central Texas, 95,003, 94,-
757 and 96,618.
East Texas, 611,233, 511,422 and
West Central Texas,
964 and 59,528.
West Texas, 347,048,
360,208.
North Texas, 150,296,
and 167,069.
Panhandle, 91,60, 111060
116,244.
The Panhandle district,
October had only four
days, was put on the same
as the rest of the State, but
miasioncr Olin Culberson, ■
new plan of allocating
production recently
would give that area more oil
ever.
The order was approved bp
members of the commissioa,
in addition to Culberson
Ernest O. Thompson, chairman,
and Jerry Sadkr.
- Chairman Thompson said
order would permit adding to
storage to meet Spring dam
which be termed especially wise
at this time due to the national
defense situation.
He asserted that if the Bureau of
Mines estimate of market demand
was correct the new allowable
would permit the meeting of eury*
rent needs and rebuilding storage
at the rate of 24,918 barrels daily.
’“This is a wise precaution at
this season of the year so wo map
rebuild our stocks against tha
Spring demand which apparently
is going to be surprisingly
Thompson said.
