Message Fromn the Governor
Executive Office,
August 30, 1932.
To the Legislature of the State of
Texas:
Only the most imperative demand
and need could have impelled me to
call you ladies and gentlemen forth
again from your homes and private
affairs to the service of the State
in a special session.
Such a demand, which began
months ago. has been coming to me
with increasing urgency from citi-
zens all over Texas, a swelling cry
for tax relief which should no longer
go unheeded.
Members of this Legislature are
familiar with the condition of the
taxpayers, and are aware of the gen-
eral clamor for immediate relief.
You know too, I am sure, that sub-
stantial relief can be provided for by
legislation, and that to delay it
longer would be unjust to the people.
