JOHN
AUSTIN, TEXAS
COSTLY OVERTIME—Ex-
tension of the federal mini-
mum wage act to state hospital
and school employees would
cost state government in
Texas at least $14,000,000 a
year, according to Atty. Gen
Crawford Martin.
Martin says he intends to
keep fighting Inclusion of state
institutions under the act all
the way to the Supreme Court.
Three federal judges in
Maryland recently handed
down conflicting opinions on
the issue but not a final order.
Under the new appropria-
tions bill, all State employees
will get more than the requir-
ed federal minimum wage. Big
catch financially is that the
federal act also requires time
and a half payment for
overtime--or an hour and a
half compensatory time off for
every hour of overtime work-
ed during the same pay period.
Texas employees get compen-
satory time off (no cash)onan
hour-for hour basis.
CAR INSURANCE—Care-
less Texas drivers will pay
more for their car Insurance
on policies written after July
31. They will be charged
more because of their acci-
dents or traffic law violations
during the nine months which
ended May 1.
Penalties which range from
15 to 90 percent, depending
on the number and Importance
of the law violation—will add
up to $6,439,362 during the
year starting August 1.
These penalties, feeding
that much more money into
the auto Insurance “kitty”
will prevent rate Increased for
most drivers.
State Board of Insurance
held its annual auto Insurance
rate hearing and got a staff
recommendation for a general
rate reduction of one percent
in insurance rates. It varies
from area to area, and from
classification of cars and
drivers.
TTiere would have been a
general rate Increase had It
not been for the more than
$6,000,000 in penalties which
will be charged against the
drivers who violate the law and
have accidents.
Board also took under con-
sideration a proposal that high
school and college students
whose grades average B or
better be given a 25 percent
lrsurance rate reduction.
State Farm Insurance Co.
started such a program in
1962. It found that students
who make high grades drive
less and have fewer accidents.
Hence, it is a valid basis for
lower rate for those who
make the honor roll or the
dean’s list.
COLLEGE TUITION —In-
stead of doubling tuition as re-
quested by the Coordinating
Board of the Texas College
and University system, the
Legislature made it easier
for poorer youngsters to get
tuition and fee exemptions.
Exemptions would go only
to students from families with
grass Incomes of $4,800 a year
or less. No student would be
allowed to attend college more
than six years under the
exemption plan.
To be eligible, students
must be graduated In the top
25 per cent of their high
school classes. Or score In the
top 20 per cent In a nationally
standardized college admis-
sion examination.
AG RULES—State agencies
charged with providing ser-
vices to the handicapped may
spend money under contract
for specific programs and
projects conducted by non-
profit groups, Atty. Gen.
Crawford Martin has held.
In another opinion, Martin
concluded that the value of an
Indebtedness secured by
mortgages against real estate
In Canada held by a resi-
dent decedent of Texas should
be included in his estate wheft
computing Inheritance taxes
due.
Inmate population at the
Huntsville state penitentiary
unit dropped by 480—to 12,-
384--during the last fiscal
year, according to State Audi-
tor C. H. Cavness.
State, county and municipal
officials have been urged to
encourage ringing of all avail-
able bells to celebrate July 4
at 1 p.m. DCT—as part of
“ Bells of Independence Day”
observance throughout the
nation.
State Highway Department
is observing Its 50th birthday
this month... and will celebrate
the anniversary again in
September In connection with
National Highway Week.

Seven Cedar Hill Youths
Caught Robbing Station
Seven Cedar Hill boys were
caught in the act of robbing the
Coin-Operated Service Station
on Highway 67 about 1:30 a.m.
Wednesday.
A night watchman and part-
owner of the station caught
the boys breaking Into the
gasoline stand, and he had
them to halt and lay down.
Unable to leave the youths,
he fired a gun twice trying to
attract attention. He was un-
successful.
Finally, a passing motorist
who lives In Woodland Hills
saw the commotion and stop-
ped to Investigate. The two
loaded the boys In a car and
took them to the Sheriff's
Department, where they were
booked.
The owner said more than
190 gallons of gasoline had
been stolen from the station in
recent months. Only last week
recent months. Only last
week, a young man and girl
were caught breaking into the
gas pump.
The youths trip the machine
with a quarter then break a
glass and push a mechanism
to make It continue giving
gasoline.

Who Baptized The Thief On The Cross ?
Dear Sir:
In reading your articles, I get the impression that you
think a man must be baptized to be saved. If this is true,
what about the thief on the cross? He was not baptized
and he was saved.
In Luke 23: 39-43, we have the story of Jesus* conver-
sation with the thief. The thief asked to be remembered
by Jesus when Jesus came Into his kingdom. Jesus said,
"Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in
paradise.”
In the first place, I agree that the thief was found in
favor with the Lord and that he will be with the Lord for-
ever. However, I do not get the impression that Just be-
cause he was a thief, he had never been baptized.
Something for sure, that most people overlook Is the
fact that the thief knew about the kingdom. Where did he
learn about the kingdom? Also, what were the people taught
that learned about the kingdom?
“In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the
wilderness of Judea and saying, “Repent ye: for the kingdom
of heaven is at hand. Then went out to him Jerusalem
and all Judea, and all the region round about Jordan, and
were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins '1
Matt. 3:1, 2, 5, and 6.
From the above scriptures, we learn that John taught
about the kingdom. We also learn that those taught about
the klndgom were baptized. It seems reasonable to con-<
elude that the thief was baptized by John. When he sinned
he was punished for it. However, he realized his need to’r
the Lord and confessed that need by asking to be remem-
bered In Christ’s kingdom. Repenting made the difference.
When a child of God sins, he must confess his sins and ask
f.°.r?1,v®niesjs- W one Is no* a child of God, he is to confess
ms faith in Christ and be baptized for the remission of sins.
