Washington, July 21.—Ap-
proximately 215,000 world
war veterans will be able to
borrow half the value of their
bonus certificates from the vet-
erans administration offices af-
ter Monday, July 25, under
the terns of an act signed to-
day by Preside t Hoover.
The new law extends the
borrowing privilege to those
excluded from benefits of
previous legislation, and
Frank T. Hines, administrator
of veterans’ affairs, immedi-
ately announced arrangements
had been made for veterans to
obtain loans from their nearest
regional offices next week.
The measure, besides remov-
ing the previous requirement
that two years elapse before
certificates could be borrowed
on, reduces the interest on inch
loans to 3V4 per cent from tex-
tile polls. Voters are not al-
lowed to help one another.
They are not allowed to carry
a slip at paper or ballot with
them to the polls to aid in vot-
ing a ticket.
Election officers will be
found courteous and faelpfu!
doing all that the law allows
them to do for each voter. It is
their business to see that each
qualified vo*er casts his ballot
as he desires and that same be
tallied and counted for the
candidate' for whom he wishes
to vote.
Election officers are not al-
lowed to give out information
concerning the vote during the
day.
A precinct election will be
held at each voting box at 2
o’clock where delegates will
be elected to the county con-
vention. It is important that
these conventions be attended
for the policies of gubernator-
ial candidates are endorsed at
the state convention.

Tomorrow is election day in
Texas with another hot cam-
paign doting tonight and a
smaller vote than in previous
elections indicated.
The greatest interest is
shown in the governor’s race
with that at the race for attor-
ney general next in line.
Governor Sterling is asking
for a second term as governor
after having given Texas one
of the most efficient and honest
administrations in the history
of the state. There are seven
other candidates for governor,
Mrs. Miriam A. Ferguson. Tom
F. Hunter, N. H. Wolfe, C. A.
Frakes, J. Ed Glenn, Frank
Putnam and Roger Q. Evans.
James V. AUred, attorney
general, is opposed by Clem
Calhoun and Ernest Becker.
Allred and Calhoun have made
an active campaign and have
aroused much interest in the
race.
Governor Sterling is sched-
uled to speak at Waxahachie
and Sherman today.
Tom F. Hunter will close at
Sherman.
James E. and Miriam A.
Ferguson will dose Mrs. Fer-
guson’s campaign at 'Dallas.
M. H. Wolfe will close in his
home town Dallas.
Attorney General James V.
Allred is scheduled to close his
campaign at Sulphur Springs.
Clem Calhoun will close his
campaign at Dallas.
The ticket for tomorrow is
one of the longest in the his-
tory of the county, perhaps
one reason being for Hz un-
usual Jengtb is the fact that a
total of thirty-nine candidates
are seeking the office of con-
gressman-at-large. there being
three to be elected—and desig-
nated by places—one, two and
three. The list of candidates
for district, county and pre-
cinct is smaller this year than
usual.

CARE-FREE
The periods in life when one can be care-
free are limited. Childhood is one of those
periods, and rightfully so, ... an inheritance
due all. Other periods of carefreenew seldom
materialize, except through an individual’s
own planning and consistent work to that end.
Relief from financial worries brings a sense of
carefreeness which well repays one for the
effort made to save and to haw.
