WELL-ROUNDED TEXAS
INCOME REGARDED AS
STABILIZING FACTOR
Texas was cited as an example of
a “well-balanced income state” in
a survey compiled by James C.
Tucker, partner of Barcus, Kindred
& Company, of Austin, specialists in
municipal bonds.
Illustrative of the diversified na-
ture of the state’s revenue sources,
Jie listed the following:
A cash farm income of $655,000,000
in 1941.
Manufacturing production valued
at $1,530,220,676 in 1939.
Lumber production totaling 1,225,-
000,000 board feet, valued between-
40 and 50 million dollars in 1940.
Oil production totaling 493,126,000
Drink malted milks and milk shakes
made with delicious Borden's ice
cream at the fillte Cafe.
Real air conditioning—for your com-
fort. Yes sir, that’s what Joe has for
you at The Elite Cafe.

barrels, worth $488,194,740 in 1940,
“Texas ranks first among the 48
states in oil production, second in
value of farm crops, fifth in lumber
production and eleventh in manu-
facturing,” Mr. Tucker said. “Agri-
culture is varied with cotton, wheat,
corn, livestock, vegetables and cit-
rus fruits all of major importance.
Texas is now the third largest citrus-
producing state and the second in
grapefruit output.
“These statistics indicate that
Texas does not carry aHi its eggs in
one basket. They show that the
state’s ability to pay taxes and meet
its obligations is based on an un-
usually well balanced income from
industrial and agricultural sources ’

Thanks
Reeceiving the highest vote of
any of the three candidates for
the office of Commissioner,
District 1 is deeply gratifying,
and I look forward to the run*
off confident that my many
friends will not only continue
their support of my candidacy
but will solicit that of their
friends and neighbors.
I may not be able to see
each voter personally before
the runoff election, but with
the help of Mr. Bob Mullins
who is supporting me, and
that of other friends, I am
confident each of you will
hear from some of us.
