for its purpose providing for the future of one of the finest classes of
American citizenship, men who risk their lives and personal safety, some
of them without pay. Too high tribute cannot be paid to the firemen and
fire boys of Texas. With me, however, it is not a question of personal
.preference. It is but a simple question of duty.
I believe the commendable objectives of this bill can easily be made
into a worthy piece of legislation. It was not done, however, in the hurried
preparation and passage of House Bill 187.
Believing, therefore, it is my duty to do so, I, James V. Allred, Governor

my hand and caused the official seal to be affirmed hereto this 30th day
of May, A. D., 1935.

beer, the State shall refund the proportionate part of the tax for the
remainder of the year for which it was paid; and
WHEREAS, Such amendment was based upon the proposition that
under existing laws a corporation can, upon dissolution, be refunded for
such proportionate part of the tax, but the Legislature has apparently
overlooked the fact that a corporation pays a franchise tax in addition to
a beer license for the privilege of engaging in this business; and
WHEREAS, Any system of refunds necessitates employment of additional
clerks and generally leads to abuses; and
