At times the news from John*
, son's LBJ Ranch near Stonewall
is delivered via a "press pool",
in which four reporters are as-

corps is bundled into buses for
the trip to the ranch over U. S.

Some of the press-center set-
up will remain intact in the Dris-

perhaps, the next nine years, ac-
cording to voters' reactions to the

LOAN OFFICES IJCENSKI)
Regulatory Loan Commissioner
Frank Miskell issued a total of
1.(530 licenses to bo displayed by
consumer credit companies which
make loans up to $1 .">00. Licen-
ing was the first major step under
the Texas Regulatory Loan Act
which went into full effect on De-
cember 21.
All of these licenses—ranging
from a single lender in New Bos-
ton to a (i0-office Family Finance
chain—now will be under state
supervision. A lot of "loan
sharks' who could not. or would
not, meet the new state require-
ments were flushed out by pas-
sage of the law.
Ixian lobbyists estimated ear-
lier in the year that there were
2.200 loan offices in the state, but
only 1,8!>3 filed letters of intent
to file application for a license.
Then some 2Bf> never followed
their letters with applications.
