Repeal and Bond Results Hailed
As Great Victory by Governor
Her Husband Says
AUSTIN, Texas.—Texas having vot-
ed for legalisation of 3.2 per cent beer
and for the $20,000,000 unemployment
relief State bonds, former Governor
James E. Ferguson expressed gratifi-
cation for Governor Miriam A. Fergu-
son and hailed it as a great victory.
Ferguson explained that fifteen days
will be required to canvass the re-
turns of the election and therefore the
Legislatura would not be convened in
special session prior to the official
declaration of the result. He said the
date probably would be September 11.
"Although the Stale unofficially
now knows the result of th« election,"
said Fergruson, "the Legislature can
not take cognizance of it until the
State canvassing board officially has
it tabulates the votes of the various
counties. For this reason the Legis-
lature probably will not be convened
until September 11."
Approximately 80,000,000 children, ranging from near-grad-
autes to kindergarteners, will converge on our streets and high-
ways this September, all approaching central points. Through proclaimed it fifteen days later, when
the summer thay have been scattered throughout the length and
breadth of the land; now they are to be mobilized, crossing our
city thoroughfares or country lanes in long lines going to school
or coming home.
It is the solemn duty of every motorist to see to it that these
youngsters have a safe passage. By following a few simple rules,
he can help cut down the toll of 3,400 children killed and 162,550
-injured in 1982. Every motorist should remember to approach a
school zone with care; to slow down at all intersections; to watch
his speed on curves in the country. Above all, he should look out
for the unexpected. Children who meet after two months'
separation, become jo absorbed that they forget about the danger
of Hashing into the roadway, darting from behind parked cars,
rr trying to retrieve a ball from under the fender of a moving
vehicle. The motorist must do their thinking for them.
The reduction in motor accidents to children of school age in
the United States, is the brightest picture in the safety movement,
but there still remains much to be done to further reduce the
number of tragedies—90 per cent of which are avoidable. Educa-
tors, school authorities and teachers constantly emphasize the
dangers of modern traffice conditions, to the children. The one
person able to bring about great improvement is the motorist.
He should drive at all times as he would if his child were out in
the crowd ahead.
New Plan Sought
For Reduction Of
1934 Cotton Crop
WASHINGTOnT TÚ P) —Three si-
multaneous meetings in as many
Southern cities on September & were
called Monday by Secretary of Agri-
culture Wallace to consider a new cot-
ton reduction program to control next
year's crop. ,
The meetings will be held in Dallas,
Atlanta and Memphis.
"The recent cotton reduction cam-
paign was successful in that there
was taken out of production the quan-
tity set as the goal of the campaign,"
Wallace explained. "This past cam-
paign dealt with an emergency and
is but a beginning. Exceptionally fa-
vorable climatic conditions have re-
sulted in an unusual acre production,
thus continuing the existence of tre-
mendous oversupply with resulting
unsatisfactory prices."

THE AMERICAN SYSTEM
The great virtues of the American system of government—as
distinct from those prevailing in a great many other powers—are
nicely exemplified by the recent troubles in Cuba.
We have had revolutions in America—and more lately than is
usually realized. We had one when Wilson defeated Taft and
Roosevelt, and came to office with an almost entirely different
viewpoint toward government than those of his immediate pre-
decessors. We had one last November, when two irreconcilable
j olitical philosophies opposed each other, and the new one
triumphed. But these revolutions were obviously very different
from those of the Cuban type—no form of government is so
amendable as ours to orderly and decisive change, without dis-
turbance and without violence, when the mass of the people de-
aireit.
When the opposing factions met in Cuba there was bloodshed
and chaos and sabotage, followed by martial law. The same thing
happened in Russia and in Italy and Germany. It happened in
Spain and Mexico. Dictatorships, whether by a king or a com-
moner who lifted himself by his own bootstraps, must be achieved
by violence, and then must end by violence. Of the great powers,
England and America are the outstanding examples of govern-
ments where the old order can be changed bj due process of law,
and where force of arms is never contemplated.
That is a fine testimonial to those who framed the Constitu-
tion with its fundamental principles of our system. They saw
far ahead—farther ahead than we usually realize. And that is the
best argument against those who would subject those principles
to any short-sighted overhauling.
