NOBODY’S
BUSINESS
By JULIAN CAPERS. Jr.
Austin.—Democratic voters of
Texas, with the openings of both
major candidates for governor be-
hind them, this week were studying
platforms and opening addresses of
Bill McCraw and Ernest Thompson,
while the boys who pull the political
wires were working 18 hours a day
in both camps, angling for the sup-
port that will put their men in a
runoff contest next July.
The McCraw opening at Arlington,
birthplace of the attorney general,
was all that the McCraw managers
expected. Utilizing every ballyhoo
trick in the bag, the competent staff
of McCraw press agents assembled a
crowd that packed a city block on
Arlington’s square, including 1800
who rode a free special train from
Dallas. McCraw outlined his platform
ii. a carefully prepared, serious ad-
dress which pleased his crowd, and
the thousands who listened on the
radio.
Platforms Parallel
Meanwhile, the political experts
were analyzing the McCraw and
Thompson platforms, and finding
that the attorney general tracked the
trail blazed by Thompson about 90
percent of the way. The differences
between them will constitute the
main issues of the campaign. McCraw
advocated ratification of the state
and Federal child labor amendment.
Thompson opposed it, and urged a
state law to regulate child labor.
McCraw declared for higher taxes, if
they are needed, from “corporate in-
terests,” specifically mentioning
natural resources, pipelines and pub-
lic utilities. Thompson would seek
additional revenue, if needed, from a
luxury tux and natural resources,
urging lower utility rates through
state regulation, instead of increased
state taxation to hike rates to con-
sumers. Both pledged economy, no
new taxes, opposition to a sales tax.
Thompson favored a tax on luxuries,
if needed, while McCraw called a lux-
ury tax the same as a sales tax.
McCraw made rather broad claims
for the credit of abolishing hot oil,
lowering gas rates, developing the
oil industry, defeating Federal oil
control, and other achievements in
which both the railroad commission
and the attorney general’s office
have participated. There is likely to
develop some pretty lively differences
of opinion as to who brought about
these blessings, as the campaign
progresses.
Draft Ferguson Movements
Like the proverbal nine-lived cat,
the third term talk for Mrs. Ferg-
uson refuses to die, even in the face
of Jim’s announced refusal to enter
the two-time woman governor again.
In San Antonio, this week will see a
mass meeting, headed by “liberals”
who resent interference by rangers
with San Antonio’s traditional “wide-
open” gambling and sale of liquor by
the drink, with the announced inten-
tion of drafting Ma as a candidate.
T. H. McGregor, shrewdest political
mind in the Ferguson camp, was to
deliver the principal spe;eh.
Tom Hunter, the Wichita Falls vet-
eran, jolted the McCraw ent. uisiasts
considerably, when he dropped his
hat into the ring for a third effort
at the governorship, as forecast last
week in this column. Hunte*' got
around 239,000 votes last time against
Jimmie Allred, and the best guess-
ers here think he will poll a substan-
tial vote again. He classified Thomp-
son and McCraw ns being political
blood brothers, and figuratively beat
the Hunter breast in agony over the
state’s unhappy situation. He will miss
Boyd Gatewood, ve’eran publicist,
who rote the clever gags that enliv-
ened Hunter’s last campaign, Gate-
wood having died of a sudden heart
attack on the eve of Hunter’s an-
nouncement.
Montgomery Lauded
To Julian Montgomery, state high-
way engineer, went the plaudits of
good roads enthusiasts gathered in
Austin for the Texas Good Roads’
association’s annual meet. During six
months service, Montgomery—who
stepped into an admittedly very hard
job as successor to the capable Gib
Gilchrist—has not only carried for-
ward the road building activity of
the state without pause, but has ad-
vanced the planning program ma-
terially, so that when Federal funds
for the 1939 program become avail-
able June 30, Texas will be far out
in advance of most states with a
carefully planned and engineered pro-
gram to begin putting highway coin
in circulation, relieving unemploy-
ment. and. .improving roads, imme-
diately.
The good roads folks made a high-
ly popular choice, too, when they

McCRAW SPEAKS AT HUT
DEDICATION CEREMONIES
College Station.-—The fight to com-
bat the worst grasshopper infesta-
tion in history is under way with the
arrival of 37 carloads of bran ana
14,800 gallons of sodium arsenite
from Federal sources, acording to
R. R. Reppert, entomologist of the
extension service of Texas A.&M.
College and state grasshopper con-
trol leader.
Texas has been assigned 7,000 tons
of biand and 140 gallons of sodium
arsenite by the bureau of entomology
and plant quarantine, which admin-
isters the government’s grasshopper
control program. This material will
be matched by farmers who will re-
ceive allotments of poison mash
through county agrieultral agents
and county grasshopper control com-
mittees.
Entomologists have known fox-
over six months that more than 100
Texas counties would suffer a se-
vere hopper infestation, and Federal
entomologists have helped the Texas
grasshopper control committee make
plans to hold down crop damage.
While the hatch is still incomplete,
hoppers have emerged in recoi'd num-
bers in most of the counties where
damage is expected. Only in the pan-
handle are the hoppers still in the
egg stage. The recent cold wave did
little to reduce grasshopper numbers.
County agricultrual agents, county
grasshopper control committees, and
farmers are ready to combat the in-
sects. Experience has showxx that con-
trol is simplified when poison mash is
scattered around the places whei-e
gx-asshoppers hatch out before they
multiply and spread to fields. A sim-
ilar program last year saved Texas
farmers six million dollars and re-
turned more than a hundred dollars
for each dollar spent.
Control measures will begin May
1 in the counties where the hatch is
most advanced, Reppert said.

Convention Held in Longview
OSCAR BURTON ELECTED
VICE PRESIDENT TEXAS
GOOD ROADS ASSN.
Austin, Texas, April 27.—Lowi-y
Max-tin, publisher of the Corsicana
Sun, was elected president of the
Texas Good Roads Association by
unanimous vote of the board of di-
rectors at the annual meeting of the
association. Mr. Martin long has been
prominently identified with Texas
civic affairs and was largely respon-
sible for the development of plans for
the Texas Centennial.
Other officers elected were Oscar
Burton of Tyler, first vice-president;
Joe M. Leonaxxl of Gainsville, second
vice-president; Max Starcke of Se-
guin, third vice-president; Datus E.
Proper of San Antonio, financial
secretary; Charles E. Simons of Aus-
tin, public relations maxxager and ed-
itor of Texas Parade, the associa-
tion’s official publication.
Plans for a united front against
any inroads into the funds collected
for highway construction and main-
texxance were laid by the directors
and an aggressive campaign will be
undertaken to prevent any diversion
of highway taxes to non-road uses.
Strong endorsement of the work of
the Texas Good Roads Association
was given by many civic organiza-
tions, including the Texas Rural Mail
Carriers Association.
The association also urged Congress
to take immediate action on a bill
to authorize a continuation of $200,-
000,000 in regular Federal aid tv the
states for 1940 and 1941, as a part of
the long-range highway planning
program, and to earmark a substan-
tial amount of any emergency relief
funds for highway construction. The
Paul T. Sanderson
Elected President
Attended by more than 7,000 del-
egates from this area of Texas from
Dallas to the Gulf of Mexico and
from Waco to the eastern boundary of
the state, the East Texas Chamber of
Commerce 12th Annual convention
was held in Ixmgvitw Sunday even-
ing, Monday and Tuesday. Seventy-
one counties comprise the area.
Organized in Longview 12 years ago,
the convention this year was a home-
coming celebration, and Longview cit-
izens are to be congratulated for the
fine spirit of welcome and coopera-
tion accorded visitors and delegates.
Business meetings were devoted in
large part to the chamber’s recently
initiated downward revision of taxes
program and pointing out the indus-
trial possibilities of this section, par-
ticularly the opportunities and in-
creased finances of a paper mill.
On the proposed $7,000,000 paper
mill, E. L. Kurth, outstanding lum-
berman of Lufkin, said that the next
30 days will “tell the tale of whether
East Texas will get this paper mill
or see the opportunity for such in-
dustrial expansion lost.” Texans, ho
said, need to subscribe capital to the
amount of $3,600,000 to supplement
the amount that the Southland Paper
Mill would supply; and if the op-
portunity is not seized now, it will be
necessary to wuit for northern capi-
tal to finance the project.
Marvin Kelly of Longview, first
president of the East Texas Chamber,
welcomed visitors.
Paul T. Sanderson, Trinity lumber-
man, was elected president of the
East Texas Chamber of Commerce to
succeed E. L. Smith, Mexia oil man,
and Beaumont was named as the

ize with the other furnishings, and ted. The resolution stated the “news-

out the necessity for making sub-

way systems in the interest of safety
and asserted that the Federal gov-
ernment now collects in direct taxes
on the motorists an amount many
millions of dollars in excess of road
aid appropriations.
The association also commended
the highway commission and the at-
torney geixeral’s department for its
splendid work in effectively halting
inroads into construction revenues
made by operation of a motor vehicle
