AS YOU MAY WELL IMAGINE
these gentlemen are enthusiastic
over an advertising campaign which
helped to bring about these results. '
As are the rest of the shipper*
and other Vailey concerns which
participated In the campaign.
Having tasted the fine flavor of
a well defined and executed ad-
vertising-merchandising campaign
The Texas Citrus Shippers As-
sociation. of which Mr. Keefe is
president and Mr. Miller secretary-
treasurer. has called a meeting of
at. concerns in the Valley which
snip citrus fruit—
This meeting to consider serious-
ly and in detail the proposition ol
an advertising campaign of wider
scope—
To open with the opening of the |
2934-1935 season.

ALL CITRUS SHIPPERS OP
the Valley whether members of
the Texas Citrus Shippers associa-
tion or no—
Are urged to meet at Weslaco
on Thursday night of this week at
the city hall.
And to discuss with the members
of the shippers association—
Advertising plans for the com-
ing year.
The Brownsville Herald sincerely
urges all citrus shippers of the
Valley to attend this meeting.
We feel that the small campaign
just closed should have opened the
eyes of the Valley to the teauibiiuy
anu the possibilities of newspaper
ad.ertising as a salesman of Valley
grapefruit and oranges.
Further do we teel that in the
consummation of such plan lies the
one and the only one mea .
bringing the citrus industry out of
ih doldrums of an uncertain mar-
ke» at an uncertain price into the
high breeaes oi a good and a
steady market Gemand.
Its time to quit fooling.
We wish the Texas Shippers as-
sociation all torts ot success and
bespeav for ihc association all pos-
sible cooperation from member and
A tpn-member shippers.
AS THE HISTORY OF THE
eco. omic development of the Lower j
Hi Grande is written we predict
that two events of this spring will
loom large.
The getting down to business in
the merchandising of our citrus
production will be one.
Ar.d the other event will be the
formation of the Valley Shippers
Association with all the back-
ground of events which brought
this association into being.
Too much importance cannot be
placed on this association for it
stands for ideals of business which
will mean much to the future of
the vegetable growers and their
(prosperity a prosperity which
means prosperity tor us all j-st as
•he prosperity of the citrus grow-
ers means prosperity lor us all.
An association which is of the
Valley for the Valley and by the
Valley has been the goal towaii
which The Brownsville Herald ha*
been working for years.
We have ever felt that the Val-
ley must help itself that the Val-
ley could not depend upon those
whose main interests are elsrwlitre
to work for the best interests of
this section.
It Just is not human nature
that’s all.

Brain Trust ‘Rebels* to Be Named
ALLEGED PLOT
AGAINST F. D.
TO BEPROBED
Advisers Believe That
Whole Matter
Is Joke
GARY. Ind. March 27. —UPt—Dr.
William A Wirt educator said
Tuesday that "brain trusters”
should seek to ‘ get us out of the
depression first and then bring up
their social reform legislation”
Sensational Charges
He told of investigations which
he said led him to make sensational
charges that some unnamed advisers
of tiie president admitted plotting
revolution.
The educator explained his views
only a few hours after he said he
had received a death threat from a
person signing himself “a faithful
member of the United States of
America Royal Citizens Secret So-
ciety.” It carried a Buffalo. N. Y.
postmark
“Freedom Gone”
His charge that within two months
congress will have signed away a
considerable part of the freedom of
the citizens was not a "bolt from
the blue.” he said but was based on
information gathered over two
years.
"Our problem is this.” he said.
Bills now before the congress would
in effect Institute an excessive re-
gimentation of business and industry
by the government.
WIRT TO GET
CHANCE TO TALK
WASHINGTON. March 27. —<AV-
Dr. William A. Wirt. Gary. Ind..
school superintendent is certain to
get a chance to name the "brain
trusters" he charges plotted a revo-
lution in the Roosevelt administra-
tion.
The only question was which
branch of government—congress or
the department of justice — would
make the investigation.
An effort will be made In the
house to have a congressional com*
mittee do the Job. Speaker Rainey
on the other hand believes the
justice department should do it.
Several of Pres. Roosevelt's pro-
fessional advisers termed the matter
a “joke”. Most declined to even dis-
cuss it.
On the senate side of the capitol.
Schall iR-Mimv came forward with
a suggestion that if any one close
to the president were found guilty of
efforts to “substitute communism”
he should be placed before a firing
squad.

Mr. Roosevelt's vacation plans
crmmpel Sen. Black's style In In-
vestigating ocean and air mail
subsidies.
The wise boys on the sidelines
are now watching to see whether
history is going to repeat itself.
Everything ties up around the
President's fondness for cruising
aboard Vincent Astor's palatial
yacht “The Nourmahal.”
• • •
Last year Black was all sat to
look into the affairs of the Inter-
national Mercantile Marine—among
other concern*;
But September found Mr. Roose-
velt sailing from Poughkeepsie to
Washington aboard the Nourmahai
•etth fanfare of publicity. Astor
was of course aboard and so was
Kermit Rioosevelt.
Both of these gentlemen are big
shots In I.M.M For some reasbn
the Black Committee didn't get
around to that company.
• • •
Those closest to the Committee
report Black has at last aasemhled
•*.€f- \
all his data for a look-see Into the
I.MM.’s affairs.
Next week the President will be
in Florida waters—once more va-
cationing as a guest of Astor.
Now the mischievously inclined
are asking Will Black go through
with his probe plans ss advertised
—or be stranded again?”
• • •
SUBSIDIES—Sen Black has wor-
ries in still another direction.
His friends say he didn’t fancy
Sec. of Commerce Roper’s move in!
submitting to Congress a complete!
bill for a new handling of ocean*
mall subsidies They Infer he feels
the Job of drafting such legislation
should be left strictly up to him in
view of his lengthy investigation.
Shipping men would like to see
;he Roper bill pass—largely to
settle the situation and possibly
prevent further uncovering of dirt.

JUDITH—'H'e going's never so
tough but Pres. Roosevelt can still
relish a good laugh. His heartiest
recent outburst was handed him by
little Judith Derby. 8-year «old
daughter of his Republican cousin.

Mrs. Richard Derby and grand-
daughter of 1 R
Judith had been taken to Radio
City In Near York where she man-

-Hon. Milton H West
House of Representative*
Washington. D. C.
-We are very much disappointed
to learn that the TIome Owners*
Loan Corporation will not establish

in view of the fact that you and
Sens. Connally and Sheppard had

to a telegram sent you on March
15th signed by all the Valley cham-
bers of commerce and local attor-
neys stop
-it was "further sails* adtory to iia
i that the office be located at Har-
lingen even though the telegram
suggested Edinburg or Brownsville
stop
“We understand that the reason
the office will not be established »
because you have received protest*
from certain sections of the Valley
on the office being located in Har-
lingen stop From past experience
we know that proposal to segregate
in 8an Antonio a division of the re-
gional Home Owners Loan Corpora-
tion to handle Valley loan applica-
tions will fail to give this section
needed relief stop
-We insist that branch office lo-
cated here Is our only solution stop
We do not care in what county or
city this office is located stop
What we want is the results which
can only be obtained by operation of
an office in the Valley stop We
cannot make it too plain that we
j believe a branch office in the Val-
ley is our only hope and that we do
not care where this office is located.’*
