AUST1N, March 2!)— The Senate
has started toward final adoption of
a constitutional amendment which pro-
pose,; to arbitrarily limit the expen-
ditures of the State government to
$10 per capita per year. The basis of
calculating thG maximum of expendi-
tures for any given year is the pre-
ceding United States census. This
means that increases could be t.uitle
only once each ten years. The 1930
nobles census gave Texas a population of
5,800,000 plus. The adoption of the
amendment in its present form would
limit State government expenditures

Ciet. some genuine tablets of Bayer
Aspirin and take them freely until
you are entirely free from pain.
The tabids of Bayer manufacture
cannot hurt you. Tlicy do not depress
the heart. And they have been proven
twice as effective as salicylates in
relief of rheumatic pain at any slage.
Don't so through another season
of suffering from rheumatism, or
any neuritie pain, And never suffer
needlessly from neuralgia, neuritis, or
other conditions w hich Bayer Aspirin
will relieve so surely and so swiftly.
A dependable and adequate source of
electrical energy is not only a vital conve-
nience to your home and business life—but
a definite advantage from an industrial
standpoint.
Major industries contemplating chang
es in location (as many now are doing) are
looking toward the progressive small city as
the ideal factory site. -And those cities which
are assured an adequate and constant source
of electric power distributed over an inter-
connected transmission line system from
strategically-located main generating sta-
tions—will be the choice of industrial engin-
eers.
The West Texas Utilities Company is
aiding industrial growth, through the ren-
dering of this dependable and inexpensive
power supply, in 161 progressive West Texas
cities, towns and communities.
