he has announced.
His hope is to impress the fed-
eral administration with the fact
that the building of modern high-
ways in Texas can provide more
and better and quicker employ-
ment than weed-cutting', ditching
or many of the other former CWA
activities. It can do this, he con-
tends. with minimum waste ori
abuses, and the result will be use-
ful. per niHiivni, reveiiUe-pfOuUC-|

Gov. James V. Allred favors
utilization of road-building as a
means of unemployment relief in
Texas, and has wired his view to
President Roosevelt.
"Well over 90 per cent of the
Texas road dollar goes to labor
either on the job or in the factor-
ies. mills and pits behind it,” Mr.
Hines explained, "and this is why
we hope to get some of the money
from purely temporary relief pro-
jects shifted to it.
"Texas should get over $50,000-
000 for roads and grade separa-
tions from appropriations already
made, and we will ask for $40,000-
000 more. We have the plans all
ready for badly-needed roads that
will exceed this amount, ami we
cun get them under way swiftly.”

hard-shelled colonel, and his sub-
ordinate officers.
Cooper and Tone adopt Crom-
well the colonel’s impulsive son.

becomes involved with a Russian
girl and is carried off by a neigh-
boring chieftain, Cooper and Tone
follow, although the colonel re-
fuses to go to his son s rescue.
Thev, too, are captured and the
chieftain employs torture to wring
the secret of an enormous ammu-
nition convoy from Cromwell. The
chieftain captures the ammuni-
tion and the Lancers, although
thev face certain destruction.
