More Liberal
Drouth Relief
Plan for Texas
Federal farm officials in a con-
! ference at Austin last week ap-
l proved a more liberal drouth re-
narrow street from the busy
terminal in Pusan, Klrea.
Mrs. Ray says, “You c«n never
imagine the noise, dirt and confu-
sion there. Each morning around
4 30 o’clock bus drivers begin to
blow the horns on the busses, yell
for passengers, and attract atten-
tion in any way.
Besides that, our small apart-
ment was used for our living quar-
ters, office and conference room.
If we happened to be a little late
for breakfast, sometimes there

I w ailing in the living room to see
us. Of course this was ail in a
day's work and we w'ere used to
it. but how wonderfyl it is to be
able to rest and enjoy the com-
forts of hime.”
A mist akin to tears came In
Ray’s eyes as he talked recently
before a missionary union meet-
iief program. Texas farmers and ; ing about Jeaving the people thot
ranch operators in counties that "
have been officially designated in
the emergency area will be eligi-

change the hearts of the people.

Auto Industry

deatlned to become on« trf the ma-
lor social and economic Influences
of the 20th Century — the auto-
mobile Industry.
Brothers Charles E. and J. Frank
Duryea were just two of the many
pioneering engineer# who were
building experimental motor vehi-
cles In the closing years of the
19th Century- But, while most
people were laughing at the horse-
toak carnage." they produced 13
gasoline-driven buggies from the
same plans, signaling the start of
actual quanUty production of the
automobile.
Since then, the nation s automo-
tive plants have produced more
than 156 mfilion motor vehicles.
As the industry marks 60 years
of growth, there are more than 50
million vehicles on the highways
_ 10 million Americans are em-
ployed in automobile manufactur-
ing and other highway transport
industries —auto factory payrolls
exceed three billion doUars — 73
per cent of our lamilies own cars.
In short, the motor vehicle has
become an integral part of the dal-
ly life of virtually everyone.

As Drivers Men
Rate Deadlier
Richmond, Vn. —9F— Insurance
underwriters disagree with Kip-
ling's famous line. They think the
mal» driver under 25 is more
deadly than the female — especi-
ally if he is unmarried.
Proposals for revised liability in-
surance rates, filed with the state,
ask increases up to 43 6 per cent
for unmarried maie drivers under
25 Such drivers who are mar-
ried would get off lighter and girls
in M" same age bracket —• mar-
ried or unmarried — would get a
decrease.
