Watex Bill in Congress Would Make
Loans Available for New Pipe lines
Congressman Jim Wright of
Texas has introduced a bill in
Congress to help states and cit-
ies promote the construction of
long distance water pipelines.
The bill would authorize the
Federal-Government to purchase
a portion ofTlle bonds issued for
this purpose by local units of
goveri.ment.
It is designed as an aid to ci-
ties of all sizes, with a provision
for assistance to Interstate Com-
pacts in which two or more
states would join in such a pro-
ject.
Wright, a nfettober of the
House Public Works Committee,
said he believes this is the next
logical step in solving the in-
creasingly critical water pro-
blem.

which we must add an entirely
new dimension To our water
planning." he said. "Under-
ground water tables are falling,
and no longer can we assure a-
dequate supply simply by erect-
ing dams and impoundments."
"More and more lofeial govern-
ments'are learning that the so-
lution to their water problem
lies many miles away."
A major bottleneck, he be-
lieves, is in the average town's
ability to finance such projects.
The bill would let the govern-
ment buy up to $5 million worth
of bonds when the Corps of En-
gineers certifies that a project
is feasible, would aid beneficial
conservation in the river basin,
and would not adversely affect
flood control.
Water supply Would still be
a local responsibility, Wright
points out. Any development un-
I der the bill would have to be
tarried out in compliance with
state laws.
"The government would sim-
ply be extending a helping hand
in a practical and constructive
| manner without in any way vio-
j lating local responsibility," he
declares.
56 Farms Are
Basis to Veterans
Texas veterans were reminded
Friday that they have only un-
til February 5 to submit bids on
56 tracts of land which the
Veterans' Land Board has fur
sale.
Land Commissioner Karl Rud-
der. who is chairman of the VLB.
txplained that — unlike normal
procedure in the Veterans' Land
Program — veterans are not re-
quired to obtain an application
number to purchase any of the
tiaets.
The lands to be sold, which
are located in all sections
of the state, have been forfeited
by original owners who purchas-
ed the property through the Vet-
erans' Land Program.
.Commissioner Rudder urged
veterans who are interested in
this sale to inquire immediately
of the Veterans' Land Board in

Chevrolet shows you some important differences in low-priced ears just by
the look on its face i
t
Wouldn't you say that most of the '57 cars
look good from 50 fert away, but what about
from finches away?
What does a close-up of the grille tell you, for
example? Is it solidly made like the new
Chevrolet grille? Or, in comparison does it
look less rich in design—feel less strong and
solid? Compare the quality and construction
of the bumpers and headlights, the fit of the
chrome trim.
The more closely you look all around the car,
the more clearly you'll see that Chevrolet has
the edge in the way it's put together. You'll
find, for instance, that Chevrolet is the only
car in its field with a, lacquer finish . . . that
only Chevrolet Bel Air models give you foam
rubber cushions in frq#t and rear seats as
standard equipment. These are just a few of
the advantages of Body by Fisher. And
Chevrolet, you know, is the only low-priced
car that has a Fisher
Body.
We'll be glad to give
you a close-up, com-
parative look at this
new Chevy any time
you care to come in.
This week, maybe?
