Capt. J. A. Benton of Wylie was
in McKinney Saturday shaking
hands; with his many friends. He
has been in Austin for the past six
months attending to his duties in the
Legislature. He is having many peo-
ple solicit him to make the race for
the State Senate next year. He has
not yet fully made up his mind, but
if bp. Should run he would be hard
to beat- He would make an able and
energetic Senator.
C. R. Morris, delivery man for
at the
County said a land agent told him store about 4:45 a.m. to make a de-
livery and found the front glass
broken. The intruders escaped when
he went to call Mr. Dungan, so Mr.
Morris thinks. The burglars had at-

Talking To You
A breakdown of the 633 bills pass-
ed at the recent session of the Legis-
lature, as analyzed by the Retail
Merchants Association of Texas,
shows that no damaging legislation
was enacted that dips into the con-
sumer’s pocketbook or impedes bfi&-
, ness, the Secretary of McKinney Re-
Phone 78, Frisco, Texas. . ?42-2tp. tail Merchants Association said., the
legislators having followed a course
that generally could be termed
“middle-of-the-road” as evidenced
measures approved. Despite a record
appropriation, the Legislature did
not burden consumers* or business-
men with new or additional taxes.

sion which will require appropria-
tion and either NEW or INCREAS-
ED taxes. The amount of money
that will have to be raised has been
variously . estimated at from $17
MILLION (for next year’s operation
of the eleemosynary institutions) to
as high as $150 MILLION. The'
amount that will be needed, will of
course depend on what legislation
is passed at the forthcoming special
session.
Of the ten amendments to the
State Constitution passed by the
Legislature and up for approval by
the voters on Novembebr 8, ONE IN
PARTICULAR deserves careful
scrutiny by consumers and business-
men. That is the amendment which
would RAISE THE SALARIES of
legislators and authorize once-a-year
sessions. Approval of this amend-
ment, he said, will mean a $2 MIL-
LION a year ADDITIONAL EX-
PENDITURE, a burden which will
have to be borne by TAXPAYERS.
The digest of the 1,501 bills con-
sidered by the Legislature and the
final action taken on them showed
that consumers and businessmen of
this area owed the Legislators an ex-
pression of appreciation. Particular
attention was called to the following
laudatory action:
No NEW or INCREASED taxes.
Ah 'amendment to the Unemploy-
ment Compensation Act that helps
deserving unemployed persons and
reduces the tax burden of employers,
and- defeat of another ■ bill which
would have increased the’compensa-
tion tax burden.
A status quo attitude toward la-
bpi: laws.; ;
Enactment of a number of bill (in
the fields of health, pivic rights and
education) that checkmate further
federal encroachment upon States’
rights in these fields.
Defeat of a soldiers’ bonus that
would have cost $400 MILLION and
?en?ed ^dividual veterans VERY
