themselves against low if the weath-

However, applications for insur
ance are being carefully scrutinize#
to see if there is a legitimate busi-
ness risk and to prevent speculation.
Premiums range from $85 to $70

Laughing Around the World
With IRVIN s. COBD
Austin.—For the fwst time in
many months Governor Allred re-
cently went to bed on account of
illness. His ailment was a combina-
tion of hay fever, sore throat, and
Induction of an ear. The hay fever,
incidentally was not the variety
caused by fly1’!* cedar pollen, the
Governor said,
"I don’t know what cadeed it," hf
commfented, "but 1 kotow I had tt.”
Liquor Administrator Bert Ford is
plain spoken.
In appearance as solid as a brick
building, he ’is not afraid to cross
swords with critic*.
fn a hearing before a House com
miltee. on a bill which would abolish
the uxjfting liquor administration,
representative said some establish-
ments in Dallas were selling hard li-
quor by the drink and otherwise not
complying with the law.
Fo-d fiicii back that if the repre-
sentative would give him the names
he would have the operator* of the
establishment* under arrest before
morning, adding "that is, if you don’t
tip, them off."
More recently Ford denounced an
El Paso newspaper for what he said
was editorial “ridicule” of liquor
board inspectors.
"So long a* the present law re-
main* on the statute books,” he said,
»’U is going to be enforced to the let-
ter by inspector^for the board who
have boon given • every -cooperation
by most local officials.
"If thb newspapers generally, as
some in Dallas and elsewhere have
done, would look upon liquor control
and liquor law enforcement as a
pressing social problem, a clouded
situation would begin to clear."

Supreme Court attaches are puz-
zled over what to do with certain
protritls^of living and dead judgeo

Jtklgc Ocie Speer of Austin, a
former member of the Supreme
Court Commission of Appeals, ha*
started s fund with which to pur-
chase portrait* of all supreme and
civil appeals court justices since tho*c
tribunals were < founded.
It I* understood a contract has
been let to a painter for 200 por-
traits and a number have been deliv-
ered. The walls of the Supreme
Court chamber, which i* small, are
nearly filled with portrait* now.
If a gufcstion ever should arise as
to the riuht of young Sam Houston
Allred to ull the privileges of Amer-
ican citizenship the answer can be
found on file ip the Stnte Health
Department.
A certified birth certificate giving
all the necessary data on Sam Hous-
ton was presented to Gov. Allred by
IBS W, A. Davis, State Registrar of
Vital Statistic*. Sam Houston was

Attain.—The end vote the-margin
by which the Senate returned to
committee a House bill containing a
horse me repeal amendment, may
have been the deciding factor in
keeping racing leg*! la Texas for
two more years.
Many “ifs” are attached, howev-
er, It still is possible a repeal bill
will be paused before the end of the
current session, and if not, the Gov-
ernor may submit it-at a special *ew
Sion.
The motion to recommit prevailed,
15ito 14, with one pair. If it, had not,
however, something else might have
stopped tji* bill. Many believed that
Senator Frank Rawlings of Fort
Worth, leader of the anti-repeal for
ces in the Senate, was armed with
one or mote points of order against
it. Robert YV. Calvert, Speaker of
the House, said be would have ruled
out tbe repeal amendment on the
grounds it was not germane. That
would have thrown the bill into con-
ference committee with no certainty
what would have happened.
It would be unwise for friend* of
racing under the pari-mutuoi system
of betting to consider the repeal pro-
posal dead as long as two Wednes-
day.* and Thursday remain in the
session. The bill luis been passed by
the House and received a favorable
report from Senate committee. From
a procedural standpoint it is in fat
better' position than any of the tax
bill* approved by the House, a* those
proposals were held up in Senate
committee. The House think* there i
a chance of the Senate acting on con-
troversial bills it passes within tbe
next two*weeks.
The repeal bill can come up in its
regular order only on Wednesdays
and Thursdays. A recent Wednesday
Ami Thru-day were consumed in de-
bate on a constitutional amendment
regatding taxation., Advocate* of
racing got a break as a consequence
of the San Jacinto holiday falling
on Wednesday.

UPWARD PACE
OF INDUSTRY
STIli CONTINUES
Washington. — The Federal Re-
serve reported today industry con-
tinued its upward pace during March,
with payroll* stepping ahead of em-
ployment in recovery gains. *
Between mid-February and mid-
March, the board said, factory pay-
rolls rolled up a 5 4 per cent 'ad-
vance to 101.2 per cent of the 1923-
25 average. Factory employment
climbed 2 per cent to 101.
The board made no reference to
any possible influence the strike sit-
uation might have on the industrial
statistics.
Prices moved swiftly higher in
March, the report continued, but
swung -downward during the first
half of this month.
An increase in industrial produc-
tion last month pushed the 1923-25
index 2 per cent over February to
118, the board explaining:
Mineral Output Increased.
“The rise reflected a sharp in-
crease in output of minerals, chiefly
coaL and an increase somewhat more

pa'sonnfl posit reserve requirement*, tieing
op about $700,000,000 of the present

Veteran observers of legislative
proceedings cite evidence that the
present House is show ing more liber-
al tendencies in regard to appropri-
ations than preceding bodies of rep
recentatlve*. A hill appropriating
nearly $125,400-.more for luilT sum-
mer :«l|oola at staid institutions than
was allotted last summer was pass-
ed without an amendment being of-
fered. The House recently approved
an emergency $75,000 appropriation
to the prison Syrian Without the
amount being mentioned on the
floor.

“Activity at steel mills increased
seasonally, and in the first three
weeks of April was over 90 per cent
of capacity. In the automobile in-
dustry, output showed about the us-
ual seasonal increase in March! and
the first three week* of April, con-
siderable fluctuations during this pe-
riod being largely in response to de-
velopments in the labor situation."
Expansion in lumber and nonfer-
roua metals production and cotton
consumption also were noted, with
production at woolen mills and shoe
factories continuing at previous high
