M NELSON editor of the Cas
tro County News makes
the following observation
Governor Shivers Is learning
that It Is easier to run a political
machine than it Is to run the
FBI He should have confined his
remarks of criticism to Loyal
Democrats or to some other group
less equipped to fight back FBI
Chief J Edgar Hoover says that
his department was requested by
persons high In state government
to postpone an investigation in
Texas on one occasion until after
election Maybe that is another
States Right issue or is it that
the Governor just naturally does
not like people that wont take
his orders including the FBI

WARWICK publisher
CLYDE Canyon News dean
of Panhandle newspapermen is
one of the very fine Texas editors
with whom we have not always
seen eye to eye on politics
He has been a foe of the Roosevelt
and Truman administrations
and pulled for Elsenhower
He writes In last weeks paper
If you think that the Republicans
arc overlooking any opportunities
to replace Democrats with
good Republicans you have missed
thcoat
Out of one side of their mouths
the Republicans are talking econ
omy while out of the other1 side
they are promising federal spending
and more jobs for their camp
followers
Since we have never sought a
federal job and have no hopes
of ever holding any federal job
under either the Democratic or
Republican administration we
can talk as we please What we
please to say will be our own
words and not the words of some
petty politician who wishes us to
speak In his favor
Frankly the political situation
has not vastly improved
since the elevation of General
Elsenhower to President Eisenhower
No matter how the situation
comes about whether it is duo
to misinformation of the President
on public affairs or whether he
understands the situation and is
playing the part of a political
pawn makes little difference The
facts are that spending in Wash

Tulla and tho Halo county lino
has boon oponed to the public
Tho project began May 1 1951
when Swisher residents voted an
80000 bond issue with which to
purchase 55 additional feet of
rightofway along Highway 87
through lho county Present right
ofway is 155 feet The two 24
foot lanes arc separated by 33
feet making it unnecessary to dim
lights at night whir approaching
a car
The second lane Just completed
begins Just past tho intersection
of Highway 80 west of the under
pass It follows the old route
paralleling the existing highway
with two exceptions At tho roadside
park south of Tulla the west
lane was put on the west side of
the park thus eliminating the
parks destruction At Kress both
lanes follow tho railroad through
town Indications are that at least
n part of Kress business district
will move to the highway
The extension of the 4lano rood
to the Randall county line at
Happy Is Included In highway
plans Tho rightofway has been
secured and the road surveyed
In some Instances poles and fences
have already been moved
back to give the highway department
tho additional 55 feet
This 4lano super highway Is
tho only one of its kind between
Amnrlllo and Lubbock with the
exception of a fow miles Just
north ot Lubbock It Is likely
that tho entire distance between
these two cities will bo served
by 4lancs In tho foreseeable future
