16,862,000 bales, according to a re-
port for the Texas Business Review
issued monthly by the Bureau of
Business Research.

TEXAS CITY—Low Rate Electric Power; Natural Gas; Paved and Well Lighted Streets; Good Schools Make Texas City a Good Place to Live
It is extremely unfortunate that
Texas City must lose a citizen the
type of Raymond Morris, While its
true he goes into his new field with
the best wishes of all of us—Texas
City needs, especially at this time,
more men like Raymond Morris—
men who are ever ready to place
the welfare of the community in
which they work and live above
their own personal desires. Texas
City’s loss is Galveston’s gain—The

Mr. and Mrs. Joe Washman cele-
brated their ninth anniversary on
Wednesday of last week with an in-
formal six o’clock dinner at their

The first cotton of the season has
begun arriving here for concentra-
tion in the warehouses f the Ter-
minal Railway Company pending
export shipment later in the season.
Several hundred bales have arrived
to date.
Much of the cotton is being hauled
to the Texas City compress by truck
but the greater part of it by rail.
The movement is expected to in-
crease rapidly after September 5.
Export shipments are expected to
begin during September or the first
of October.
world supply of American cotton for
1930-1931 of about 20,500,000 bales,

the United States on August 1 was

County Agent Miss Velma Duns-
worth announces an exhibition of
the work done by home demonstra-
tion clubs of the county at their
September meetings.
A selection will be made of the
best piece of work in each of the
exhibits and these will be displayed
and demonstrated at the county
agents’ office in Dickinson. Later
they will be entered in the county
exhibit at the Houston fair, Miss
Dunsworth said.
According to plans being made
by those who have the exhibits in
charge, it hoped to have a large
number of entries and all readers of
the SUN who have not already sig-
nified their intention of becom-
ing entrants are requested to get in
touch with Miss Dunsworth .at the
County Agents’ office at Dickin-
son.

prize in journalism, to be known as
the “Clarence E. Gilmore Prize.”
This money was remitted to Presi-
dent H. Y. Benedict of the Univer-
sity by R. D. Parker, supervisor of
the oil and gas division of the Rail-
road Commission and former sec-
retary of the now defunct Texas
Council of Safety. This sum was in
the treasury of the Council when
that organization became defunct
following the death of Clarence E.
Gilmore, its president. It was de-
cided by the members of the coun-
cil who had contributed the money
that it should be donated to the
University to provide an annual
prize to be awarded to the student
in journalism who writes the best
essay on the “value of safety as ap-
plied to various lines of industry
and other activities.” The creation
De Walt. on being asked by the
SUN whether he’d care to make a
public statement, stated:
“The records show that I practic-
ally arrested myself after this dis-
agreeable affair. That I plead guilty
in the Texas City corporation
court and was fined $10.00 for as-
sault. As far as I am concerned the
case is closed and I’d rather not
try to influence public opinion one
way or the other.
“It is very unfortunate that an
officer who tries to do his duty
has to continually be the object of
vile, lying and malicious slander.
Just because you’re an officer of the
law certain people think that’s the
thing to do—tell people how the
‘law’ hounds you and start a vile
whispering campaign against your
character. Of course you could.swear

George Hazelton, switchman at
the Terminal Railway Co. yards, was
fatally burned about twelve o’clock
last night when a car of casing head
gasoline on the loading rack of the
Continental Oil Company exploded.
Hazelton had just signaled his
engineer to “cut loose” when there
was a tremendous flash setting two
cars afire with Hazelton caught in
•the flames. He was dragged out of
danger and rushed to the office of Dr.
Danforth where first aid was given.
He was rushed to the John Sealey
Hospital in Emken’s ambulance. At

said; “the outstanding model of the
G. E. line is the Radio Combination
model whic his equipped with a spe-
cial Home Recording device.. This
permits the recording of broadcast-
ed programs as they are received on
the set, and by the use of a micro-
phone, which is part of the equip-
ment, any desired form of speech or
music can be recorded right in the •
home.”
Mr. Jaeger further • announces
that on the night of Saturday Sep-
tember 6 from 8:30 p. m. to 10 p. m.
the Company will hold open house
at which time they will present a

The new Radio Combination mod-
el with the special Home Recording
device will be on display at the
Company’s offices the night of the
Pageant, Mr. Jaeger said.
This special program to be given
on the night of September 6 will be

Funeral services for Rev. John
Sloan, archdeacon of the Episcopal
Diocese of Texas, who died suddenly
last Friday night at the age of 70
years, were held last Monday morn-
ing at Christ Episcopal Church,
Houston. Bishop Clinton S. Quin of-
Justice of the Peace John H. Har-
ris in his court at Galveston, after
a rather lengthy preliminary hear-
ing Wednesday morning, bound L.
C. DeWalt of Texas City, charged
with aggravated assault upon Frank
Hegedus, over to the grand jury un-
der $100 bond. Judge Harris released
DeWalt on his own recognizance
in the sum of $100.
During the hearing Hegedus tes-
tified that Friday night of last week
he was sitting in front of the Royal
Cafe when DeWalt came along and
told him he wanted to talk to him.
DeWalt then asked him, Hegedus
stated, whether he had made any
disparaging statement or statements
concerning him. He told DeWalt no
he had made no such statements.
He then further testified, DeWalt
struck him over the head several
times ‘with his gun, knocked him
down and brutally kicked him.
While testifying Hegedus kept
pointing repeatedly at his badly
battered face and wounds at the
back of his head. He also referred
to his badly bruised ribs.
Hegedus further' testified that he
reported the affair to the county
attorney’s office and that he filed
his charge in Galveston, because he
felt he would not reecive justice in
the Texas City courts.
Other witnesses who testified that
they were at the Royal Cafe when
DeWalt approached Hegedus, were
O. M. Boze, Joe Antinelli, Billie
Belcher and Grover House. All of
them testified with reluctance and
to nothing further than they saw
DeWalt hit Hegedus, neither would
say DeWalt had a gun in his hand
when he struck Hegedus.
Times cannot be so hard in
Texas City when money can
be picked up out of the air—
or at least out of waste
baskets.
One day this week the In-
quisitive Reporter of the SUN,
in looking for a first-page
news story in the waste basket
of a prominent citizen, receiv-
ed one of the big shocks of
his life.
Right up on top where ev-
erybody could see it, the I.
R.’s eagle eye drew a bead on
a nice roll of Uncle Sam’s
ducats.
On being asked if they had
lost any money, all those pres-
ent promptly thanked the
I. R. for “the compliment.”
So, if findin’s were keepin’s,
this story would 'end right
here, but we believe in adver-
tising. We believe in advertis-
ing in the SUN. So if the per-
son who was so flagrantly
careless or so violently weal-
thy that he had to use a
waste basket as a receptacle
for his money, will call at the
SUN office and identify the
bankroll as to its amount and
the waste basket in which it
was thrown and other things
that-will prove ownership, and
buy the SUN staff a Doctor
Pepper, the money will be re-
luctantly handed over.
Major Davenport Johnson, com-
manding officer of the Third Attack
Group at Fort Crockett, told the
local Rotarians at their regular
Tuesday luncheon that aviation will
never entirely supplant other mili-
tary forces but will vastly extend
their scope and field of action.
He gave as his reason that avia-
tion is limited in the information it
can gather of enemy activities and
also because of the distance that
can be covered from the base of
operations.
The branches of military avia-
tion, government plans for expan-
sion of the corps, and the system
of building up a reserve of offi-
cers and flyers were the high spots
in Major Johnson’s talk. Particular
mention was made of what Ran-
dolph Field, the “West Point of the
air,” will be like when completed at
San Antonio.
“There are two kinds/ of Military
aviation,” he said, “aviation serv-
ice, which supplements .the other
forces of the army, and the avia-
tion force. This latter has three
branches, pursuit, bombardment and
attack.” He then explained the ac-
tivities of each of these units of the
service.
“The air corps is being built up
by the present five-year expansion
program at the expense of other
military forces, but the arrange-
ment is temporary,” he continued.
“The best flyers are between the
ages of 20 and 25. It is then they
have the spirit and stamina,” he re-
plied in answer to direct questioning
he also explained the course of
training and requirements for en-
trance into the air service. “About
40 per cent of these entering com-
plete the first course,” he stated.
Raymond Morris, who has been
secretary and auditor for the Texas
City Terminal Railroad Company
for the past five years, has resigned
to become a member of the Galves-
ton Wharf Company organization.
Mr. Morris will take up his new po-
sition as soon as he can be relieved
.of his duties at the Terminal office.
Pending formal action of the
board of directors of the Texas City
Terminal Railway Company, Walter
Sandberg has been appointed acting
auditor by the president.
Mr. Morris, while a resident of
Texas City, has been active in va-
rious civic organizations. He is a
charter member of the Texas City
Rotary Club and has served that
organization as secretary since its
beginning."He is also a charter mem-
ber of the Seaside Golf Club.
Capt. A. S. Addison, Texas City J Owing to.th efpstntthett"so driver
Mrs. • Walter Gunderman and
Walter Jr., motored to Galveston
Friday of last week, when they join-
ed Mrs. W. M. Liveright, and Mrs.
S. A. Monroe and daughter, Peggy,
all of Houston. A pleasant day was
spent by the party on the beach
after which the entire group mo-
tored to Texas City with Mrs. Gun-
derman where they remained as
guests in the Gunderman home for
a short visit before returning to
their homes in Houston.
Seventeen towns in the Rio
Grande Valley had 37,227
population in 1920 and 92,784
in 1930, average gain of 149.2
per cent.
The Terminal Railway Company
has announced that it will soon un-
dertake the paving of about twc
miles of roadway .on its property
along the waterfront. Plans provide
for a bituminous penetration sur-
face similar to that being used by
the county on the Texas City-Ke-
mah road.
The paving will extend from the
oil decks to the eastern end of the
' company's property where it will
connect with the Texas City-Galves-
ton cutoff road. Work on this im-
provement will start during the ear-
ly fall it was announced.
According to an announcement
made this week by Major Milo P.
Fox, U. S. Engineer for this district,
Wednesday September 24th is the
date for the opening of bids for the
dredging of a channel in Dickinson.,
Bayou from its mouth in East Bay
to the Houston Highway bridge at
Dickinson.
The specifications as prepared by
the engineering department, accord-
ing to Major Fox, call for the re-
moval of approximately 112,000 cu-
bic yards of material over a distance
of about 20,000 feet. The bids are to
be opened at noon on the date men-
tioned, Major Fox stated.
The dredging of Dickinson Bayou
will provide for a 5 foot channel,
dredged at the mouth, which is in
accordance with an order from the
War Department. Upstream, how-
ever, the water is considerably
deeper.
Farmers and residents of the
mainland hope for many benefits
from the opening of the waterway
as an outlet for small boat and
barge traffic. Farmers will be able
to use the stream for hauling pro-
duce and the residents of the Main-
land will be able to use it for pleas-
ure crafts.
According to estimates made by
the County Engineer, there should
be a saving of several thousand dol-
lars each year on the shell used for
paving mainland roads. It is ex-
pected that the county will provide
leading facilities and that various
other private concerns will develop
terminals at Dickinson Bayou.

Misses Ruth Strong. Dottie Yae-
ger, Birdie Mae Emken, Sybil
Thomas Nunn, and Irene Griffin
motored to Houston Thursday eve-
ning of last week to attend a meet-
ing of the Houston Assembly No. 8,
Order of the Rainbow for Girls.
In Houston, they were joined by
Misses Alice Symms and Hattie
Carr, members of the Texas City
Assembly of the Order, and the
party enjoyed the exemplification of
। the ritualistic work which has re-
cently been altered. Miss Margaret
Hartung, Past Worthy Grand Ad-
visor, who recently visited the Tex-
as City Chapter was among those
present.
Waiting orders on Highway 38
County Engineer C. C. Washing-
ton announced this week that T. L.
James of Ruston, La., the contrac-
tor, has concentrated his necessary
equipment and will be able to have
it on the site within the next 72
hours after orders are received from
the State Highway Commission to
proceed with the work.
The State Highway department
has delayed issuing its construction
orders for the beginning of the first
unit of Highway 38, pending final
approval of the Federal Engineering
department. The County Engineer
expects the final order to start work
to be reecived early the coming
week.
The contract for the first unit
which comprises the grading and
construction of the smaller drainage
structures was awarded to Mr.
James for $129,287 as told in previ-
ous issues of the SUN. Contract for
building the larger structures was
given the Lacey Paving Company
of Dallas at a cost of approximately
$194,000. Of this amount, the Fed-
eral Government will pay about
$79,000.
The county share of this cost will
be $64,824.16 and the state share
of the cost $49,848.31. According to
plans previously worked out, the
county will pay the state’s part of
the first unit. This amount, how-
ever will be credited in the final
settlement to the county.
The archdeacon died at the home
of his son Dr. P. A. Sloan with
whom he resided in Houston. His
death came very suddenly. He had
apparently, found his clerical duties
rather too strenuous of late. He had
not suffered any illness.
“Father John” as he was affec-
tionately known to many of us here
in Texas City, was born in New
York, coming to Texas more than
40 years ago. He had been an arch-

this season in local waters was
brought in last Sunday—a giant
tarpon weighing over one hundred
pounds, measuring five feet four
inches, was caught off the end of
I the dike.
According to local fishermen, this
is the first of this species of fish
that has been caught near here this
summer. The catch was made off
the boat belonging to a Mr. McGee
of Houston.
Few Tarpons are caught in local
waters but when one is hooked the
angler has a fight on his hands to
bag the big fellow. Tarpons are a
game fish and not caught for eat-
ing.

Miss Mildred Marshall gave the
music lovers of Texas City a rare
treat on Monday evening when, she
was presented by her teacher Miss
Ethel Rader in a vocal recital at the
High School Auditorium.
This concert was in fulfillment of
a promise made by Miss Marshall to
her many friends and admirers that
she would give a recital before her
return to College this fall, and is
also a necessary part of the stu-
dent’s curriculum.
Miss Marshall is a pupil at Kidd-
Key College and Conservatory
of Music at Sherman, Texas and
will receive her music degree next
semester. She has been a member
of the Kidd-Key Glee Club since
her enrollment at that College.
Although suffering with a rather
severe cold Miss Marshall gave a
highly creditable performance and
her members were well chosen. She
is a lyrical soprano with a fairly
wide range of even quality, and
sings with ease, her lower notes be-
ing as pleasing as those in her up-
per register, something not too com-
mon in soprano voices.
Perhaps of all the nine numbers
comprising her extremely diversified
program, this young singer’s voice
was heard to the best advantage in
the second group.
Miss Marsnall received excellent
and sympathetic support from her
accompanist Miss Mabel Lewis.
The program was as follows:
