FORTY-FIRST LEGISLATURE-FIFTH CALLED SESSION. 283
PEQUESTING HENRY FORD TO CONSIDER BUILDING
SCHOOL IN TEXAS.
H. C. R. N6. 5].
HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION.
WHEREAS, the Hon. Henry Ford has announced that he is
going to spend several millions of dollars in advancement of
education; and
WHEREAS, a great field is already open for the continued
advancement of the High School graduates of the State and Odd
Fellows Homes, so they may prosecute their education further
than their high school and prepare themselves for some useful
avocation through life. When these girls and boys now graduate
from the high school they are generally without a home or
job and not able to continue their education; therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the
State of Texas, the Senate concurring, that we ask the Hon.
Henry Ford to look over the field near these two homes with a
view of establishing an Industrial Educational Plant in that locality,
or any educational plant that he may desire to establish.
Approved by the Governor, March 7, 1930.
RELATING TO TEXAS-OKLAHOMA BOUNDAIRY LANDS.
H. C. R. No. 7.]
HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION.
WHEREAS, it seems very certain that Texas will soon obtain
jurisdiction over a strip of land along the eastern boundary of
the Texas Panhandle, heretofore controlled by Oklahoma, and
WHEREAS, the State of Oklahoma has been negotiating with
the State of Texas for the purchase of this strip of land, contending
that the reason they want to purchase such land is to
protect the property rights of the good-faith title holders of
such land, indirectly inferring that should this land be given to
the jurisdiction of .Texas, no consideration would be given to
such title holders, and
WHEREAS, such inference has been carried to the people
whose rights are affected that such is a fact, arousing in their
minds a feeling of insecurity and fear for the property which
they bought in good faith; therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the
State of Texas, the Senate concurring, that assurance be given
the good-faith title holders of such land that the Legislature
will consider their rights, consistent with the laws of the State,
