VALLEY
_______
THE IZAAK WALTON League
of America, with its program of
conservation of the out-of-doors,
will find much to do in the Lower
Rio Grande Valley.
This fact has appeared evident
to citizens of the section and con
sequently C. A. Wheatley, state
president, has found it compara
tively easy to organize local
branches in ten towns in the past
two weeks.
This week he is here from his
San Antonio home to organize
firownsville, San Benito and to
complete organization in Mercedes.
The Erownsville organization meet
ing is scheduled for 8 p. m. at the
chamber of commerce building
tonight.
People who enjoy the beauty of
lake, stream, forest and sea and
the wild life of all four have been
invited to attend and take a part
in the organization.
* * *
Mr. Wheatley is doing this work
without reward other than the
pleasure of accomplishing some
thing for the good of his fellow
men and for coming generations.
He receives no salary and defrays
his own traveling expenses.
Always a lover of the open, he
( has found it possible to retire from
active business life, and now he
is devoting his energies to this
splendid work.
He will speak on the accomplish
^ ments of his organization tonight
. and reveal some of the things the
league is doing and hopes to do in
, the future.
* * •
PREVALENCE of “mad dogs” in
Brownsville and the Valley seems
at last to have stirred local citizens
to a pitch where they will demand
extermination of worthless currs.
At a meeting of the directors of
the chamber of commerce this
week it was stated that although
iolice officials had killed hundreds
f dogs in the past year, “the num
)er of canines has not diminished
and thefe still are thousands of
worthlJk dogs within the city
limits.’*^
A committee was appointed com
posed of Jose Celaya. J. S. Ford
' and H. L. Yates to confer with
authorities with a view to abating
the menace.
. i Aid of the health department to
« be solicited.
Enforcement of a law requiring
payment of a tax on all dogs to be
urged.
Opening of a pound, presumably
with a dog catcher employed to
round up stray dogs, proposed.
• • •
Game Warden Coffee points out
that cats are a real menace and
suggests that the feline tribe also
receive attention. Too many stray
cats on the streets, he says.
“ County Health Unit officials have
Indicated a willingness to assist in
immunizing dogs which their own
ers desire to save.
All forces have adopted a slo
gan: .
“Rid the city of worthless dogs
and protect the children.”
* * *
THE VALLEY rapidly is becom
tag a section famous for establish
ing records.
Shipping records fall almost
daily. Early crop records are estab
lished and broken one after an
other.
And now a record of a new sort
is about to be established.
Vitaphone equipment for the
Capitol theater arrived last Sunday.
Opening of the new entertainment
in Brownsville is being advertised
for Saturday afternoon.
Giving workmen about five days
go install and adjust the highly
complicated mechanism.
Three weeks to a month have
been required in the past to put
“talkies” into a theater.
A perfected model of this new
wonder has helped to speed the
work, but experts in charge are
being forced to exert every energy
in order to complete their task in
the allotted six days.
T. B. Noble. Jr., general manager
of Dent Theaters. Inc., remaining
on the job to see that things move
on schedule, is highly interested
in giving Brownsville this new en
tertainment in record time.
* * *
AND HERE is something for
retail merchants in the Valley to
think about, quoting the San Be
nito Light:
“The San Benito postoffice wrote
145 domestic and five international
money orders Monday. Of the
'tal about ninety money orders
nt to mail order houses.

NACO, SONORA, Mexico, April
(/P;—Two Mexican federal aviators,
were shot down by rebel gunfire

House Agriculture Commit
tee Continues To Hear
Suggestions
WASHINGTON, April 4.—UP)—
Five proposals he considered neces
sary to secure adequate agricultural
relief were laid before the house
agriculture committee today by L.
J. Taber, of Columbus, Ohio, mas
ter of the National Grange.
These, he said, were agricultural
tariff revisions, a federal farm
board, the export debenture or
drawback plan to bring benefits to
exportable farm products, a sound
land policy and waterway develop
ment, and organization, coopera
tion and efficient production.
“Agriculture is entitled to the
same measure of protection that
other groups enjoy,” said Taber.
“A study of the workings of the
tariff act indicate an average ad
valorem protection of 42.6 per cent
on all the other schedules except
in agricultural products and provi
sions which show but 22.54 per
cent. In addition, it must be re
membered that many farm pro
ducts are now on the free list that
should be protected. Agricultural
imports have increased in volume
until we are now practically im
porting our surplus.”
TRIAL OF MAYOR WILL
GET UNDER WAY TODAY
WASHINGTON, April 4.—(/P)—

AIDED IN EXPLOSION
BROWNWOOD. April 4.—(JP)—
Taking of testimony in the trial of
Mayor Palmer C. Mclnnis on
charges of assault with intent to
murder Clyde Manner, tire sales
man, here Nov. 11, 1928, was to
start late today. Mclnnis pleaded
not guilty to the grand jury indict
ment. Eleven of the jurors were
chosen this morning.
“Such clothes are immodest,” she
said, “and demoralize the classes.
“There's a time and place for all
things, but school is certainly not
the place for sun back dresses. The
girls were exposing themselves to
adverse comment.”
The girls, who maintained the
dresses admitted healthful sunshine,
were indignant at Mrs. Culp's stand.
Five of them complied w'ith her or
der, but the sixth could not see
why she should be forced to change.
LONGS FRIEND’S
INVADE CAPITAL
All-Day Demonstration In
Baton Rouge; Publish
er Testifies
BATON ROUGE, La.. April 4 —
(AP)—The Louisiana house of
representatives started its sec
ond day of investigation of im
peachment charges against Gov
ernor Huey P. Long today with
an argument about procedure.
After an hour and a half of
] discussion, a charge of filibuster
was made by Representative J.
Y. Sanders, Jr., against whom
the governor Is alleged in one of
19 charges to have attempted a
murder plot.
BATON ROUGE, La.. April 4.—
(fp)—This old southern capital was
set today for a political circus when
Gov. Huey P. Long descends upon
the town for an all-day demonstra
tion to show the legislators, he has
the support of back countrymen.
Unperturbed by elaborate ar
rangements made by the governor’s
supporters for the all-day rally the
house of representatives faced a
grind on testimony bearing upon
impeachment charges against the
governor.
Testimony until today dealt with
only two of the 19 impeachment
charges, bribery of legislators and
intimidation of the press. Near the
close of the first day’s testimony,
Charles P. Manship, Baton Rouge
publisher, quietly told the committee
the governor had attempted to hum
ble him into withdrawing from the
fight against the governor's pro
posed tax on oil by threatening to
expose the fact that his brother
was in a state insane asylum. The
publisher explained his brother was
a casualty of the World war and
was being treated at the asylum.
Looking solemnly over the house the
publisher said, “The governor can
not humiliate or embarrass me.”
Nearly the whole of the day was
spent in evidence bearing on the
charge of bribery of state legisla
tors, several representatives, state
office holders and one senator testi
fying jobs had been offered in an
effort to give support for the gov
ernor's taxation program, which
brought down upon him the ava
lanche of impeachment proceedings.

Gruesome Murder
Of Aged Pair is
Mystery to Cops
CHICAGO, April 4.—(fP)—What at first appeared to be an attempted
murder and a suicide had turned today into a mystery in which a third
person may have played a part.
Two aged women—a wealthy widow and her maid—were found in the
former’s apartment yesterday. The maid, Mrs. Iba Peterson, was dead, a
bread knife in her neck; her mis-^
tress, Mrs. Helen Kelso, 70, was
near death from hammer blow’s.
The first theory of police wras
that the maid, 67, had beaten Mrs
Kelso with a hammer, and had
taken her ow’n life. Mrs. Peterson,
who had been a maid for Mrs. Kel
so for 27 years, at one time wTas an
inmate of the state hospital for the
insane.
Circumstances tending to contra
dict the theory were found by in
vestigators. Physicians expressed
doubt that the maid would have
had sufficient strength to have
plunged the knife into her neck
\ with such force as to break off
! part of the blade. They also ad
; duced from the blood that flowed
| from both that Mrs. Kelso may
I have been attacked after the maid
j had been slain.
