Texas a Four Billion Dollar State
Accurate figures are loud speakers to those who
know their informative value. Texas will become a
four billion dollars assessed valuation state in 1930 lor
the first time. Gov Moody has made the prediction
His prediction is based on the figures at his com
mand the estimates which are in his possession and
the facts which he has collated as chic! executive of
the commonwealth
Now a four billion dollar state with a population
of 6.000,000 human souls has rapidly expanding insti
tutions of government and Its governmental depart
ments of all kinds must be maintained or sustained
by the taxes taken from the pockets of the people.
Gov Moody is honest. He is well informed He if
sincere He is patriotic and he is proud of this four
billion dollar empire state of the sisterhood He has
made many recommendations to the lawmakers. He
has called for many reforms along certain lines He
Is for a government of and by and for the people and
he never had a persona! ax to grind. This is asserted
by his friends: it is admitted by his critics.
Cost of government in this new civilization must
be met. Texas Is perhaps the fastest growing of
American commonwealths below the invisible Mason
and Dixon line of yesteryear Gov Moody has given
the figures to the people. Property taxes will pay
about one-third of the cost of the state government
during the next two years. Estimated revenues for
running the government will be $48 440.000 for the
next two years This exclusive of money used for
highway work, all lunds derived from the education
lax and the Confederate pension tax.
Of this sum the governor estimated $28,000,000 will
gome from sources other than property taxer and
: $30,440,000 from the present 25 cents ad valorem state
»levy. In addition to this the school tax he says will
bring In approximately $28 000.000 for the two years
and the revenues (gasoline and motor vehicle taxes1
for road construction and maintenance, includmg
federal Did. Close to $36.000 000 Confederate pension
, tax for two years will bring in about $4,500,000.
Thus it appears the state government as shown by
4t» chief executive will be a business of approximately
$58,000,000 a year for the next two years Now get
these facts based upon the figures furnished- prison
appropriations, rlaims and accounts and other Items
to be appropriated outside the general bills, will take
approximately $4 000,000 off the total available for
general support of the state, leaving $44,500,000 for
appropriations. This is where the rub comes in
Now $44,500,000 for appropriations is $1,500,000 be
low the house appropriations tout and $12,500,000
below the proposed appropriations as carried in the
approved bill of the senate finance committee. Texas
lawmakers are reminded that additional sources of
revenue are necessary in order that the revenue in
sight may equal the total of appropriations made.
They are remmded that there is to be a 4 cent gallon -
age tax for the construction anti maintenance of
road- in Texas and a third of the sum raised for the
4 cent tax is to go to the support of the public schools
of Texas Senate lawmakers have provided appro
priations $12,000,000 greater than the revenue in sight.
House lawmakers $1,500,000 greater than the revenue
in sight. Now the lawmakers are the revenue makers.
The governor is not a revenue maker. He may rec
ommend and that is all Increased revenues should
march side by side or hand in hand with increased
appropriations for the departments of government in
cluding the University and the colleges and the pub
lic schools There is no other way out of it
Gov. Moody has recommended a state income lax.
This proposal was killed two years ago and it was
slam again while the regular session was on Nuisance
tax bills including the tax on cigars and cigarets
have bobbed up and nuisance taxes are the mast un
popular of all tax levies that have been levied in
American history or the history of American com
monwealth It is useless for the lawmakers to pass
the buck to the governor. That is. tt is useless for
them to enact huge appropriation bills, send the sam"
to the governor and expect their chief executive to
provide millions of dollars in revenue in sight when
it isn’t in sight and it will not flow into the treasury
to be paid out for governmental expenses unless those
who hold the purse strings and enact the tax laws sec
to it that there Is a dollar in sight to match every
dollar that lias been appropriated by the legislative
branch of the government
Buckpassing is out of date Passing the buck is an
ancient method of dodging or avoiding responsibility
Texas wil! be a $4,000,000,000 state next year. Now a
$4,000,000,000 state should be able to be liberal at all
times, progressive at all times, wise in the expenditure
of the public revenue and never niggardly in the sup
port that is given to education as well as for the
proper maintenance of all the departments of the
state Additional sources of revenue should be tapped
There should be no buck passing Trim the appro
priations to the revenup in sight or provide thr addi
tional revenue which the appropriations call for in
this four billion dollar state
Grave* in the Headlines
Rep W T Graves of Stephenville. Erath county, is
in the headlines He would prohibit school teachers
from smoking cigarets while on duty. Rep. Graves
has made a sensational discovery He says “women
as well as men teachers smoke and that an Investi
gation shows that 50 per cent of the boys taught by a j
cigaret-smoking teacher smokes " Pipe smoking would
not be prohibited Neither would p.pe dreaming be
prohibited by the gentleman from Erath or the bill.
Where Will Wheat Go?
Wheat dropped 30 cents a bushel in 90 da'-s. It
dropped below the dollar mark Then promise of |
governmental assistance forced wheat to pass the dol
lar mark again in the wildest advance of years "and
other grains were carried higher" Nov wa:rh the

‘•RIGHTEOUSNESS exalteth
A NATTON; BUT SIX IS A REPROACH
TO ANY PEOPLE V Proverbs 14 34
By DR ALVIN E. BELL
“Though the mill of God grind
slowly yet they grind exceeding
small; though with patience stand1
He waiting with exactness griends
He all.” Four and a quarter cen
turies before the fall of Jerusalem
Solomon had introduced idolotry.
and with the exception of five good
kings who brought about reforma
tions and restored the true worship
of Jehovah, all of Judah’s kings
were idoloters who led the nation
to despise Jehovah and rtrfile hta
temple, despite his repeated plead
ings and warnings through his
prophts.
Judgment Falls on Jerusalem
The fearful judgment of riivin"
wrath upon four centuries of ldo’o
try fell upon Jerusalem in the sear
586 B C. when, after the unspeak
able horrors of famine and pesti
lence during a siree of 18 months
it yielded to the power of Nrbu
chadneraar. K’ng rf Babylon TIt
horrors of that siege are recounted
in the poetic funeral dirge of the
nation which Jeremiah has left us
in his ‘Lamentations” in terms like
these: “They that be slain with
the swrrd are better than they that
be slain with hunger for thr^c pine
awav through for want of the fnii**
of the f eld. The hands of the piti
ful women have sodden their own
children: they were their meat in
the destruction of the daughter of

King Zedrkiah was captured in a
fight near Jericho, the very spot
where Jehovah had given them th"*
land in a marvelous victory under
Joshua nearly 90 years before The
king was taken before Nebueahart
07.1 ar. and his sons were slain in
his sight, and his own eyes were
put out, and he was led away in
blindness to his own and his na

HAMILTON WINS
VENUE CHANGE
Amarillo Lawyer’* Trial
For Murder Will Re
Moved Elsewhere
AMARILLO. Tex . June 15.—(A*)
—R H Hamilton. attorney who fa
tally shot his son-in-law, Tom Wal
ton. Jr., here will not be tried in
Amanilo or in any county imme
diately adjoining Potter county.
Hamilton is charged with murder.
This war. announced last night
by Judge J. S Bishop at the con
clusion of a hearing on a change
of venue motion.
Attorneys for the state and de
fease were ordered to confer on a
county for the trial Hamilton sug
gested to one of his attorneys that
Travis county would be ideal as
many witnesses probably would be
called from Austin for the trial
Anson. Breckenridge. Albany. Sey
mour and Waxahaehie also were
mentioned.
Hamilton accepted the favorable
verdict calmly and appeared in bet
ter spirits after friends had con
gratulated him. His daughters,
including Theresa, the widow, were
jubilant.
One of the features of testi
mony was that of a bark official
who declared a fund of $758 50 was
in deposit in his bank to retain a
special prosecutor. He said prob
ably 100 persons had contributed
from $1 to $50 to the fund. His
testimony was similar to that of
other defense witnesses who de
clared public feeling so high
against Hamilton here that a fair
trial was impossible.
An advertisement which appeared
in an Amarillo newspaper Sunday
was introduced. Xt declared $1,000
' a heathen king whom Oort raised
up as a whip to scourge his people
for their sins.
The Wages of Sin
But this desecration of the hole
city find Its sacred temple did not
come until after they had long been
desecrated by those who should
have hallowed them. This captiv
i ity of the nation by the power of
the Chaldeans did not come until
long after the nation had sold it- j
self into the captivilty of sin There
j is nothing new or strange in all
this sad story of the captivity; it is
t only the harvest of the seed they
had persisted in sowing for many
generations: it is the old. old story;
of me way of the transgressor. In!
these riavs, when so many feel *it*s
not what you do. but what you get j
away w ith, ’ it is needful that we
let history testify to the retribu
tive Justice of the Almighty. “Be
not deceived God is not mocked,
for whatsoever a man sowrth that
j shall he abo reap "
There is a day of reckoning for
individuals as well as nations There
is no captivty more cruel than that
of sin. It blinds the eyes of its ■
slaves, gives them fetters like steel j
and degrades them from places of i
honor to the depths of shame
: “They enslave their children’s chil
dren who make merchandise of
sin "

Rest Saturday After Farm
Relief Settled; Reedy
For Bitter Debates
WASHINGTON. June IS.—(/F—
Con ere v. took a rest today after a
week's work In which It disposed <
of much of the administration's j
program for the special session and
felt for the first time the edge ot j
the keen controversy in nroaneet
over tariff revision in the senate
Farm relief legislation was out
of the wav. except for the task of
providing funds for the new fedeml |
farm hoard The 1930 census was
provided for. together with reap- j
portionment of the house member
ship in accordance with that and
succeeding decennial population

To that extent. President Hoov

for the statute hooks A fourth
point, his recomendation for sus

had been definitely shelved by the
senate during the week, and the J
fifth—tariff revision—wax started
on the senate finanee committee
phase of its development after pass
age by the house
Wnr«e Than Debenture
Although the infection of the ex
port debenture plan into the farm
relief proposal made that the ve
hicle for r controversy which wd!
not soon be erased, the senate's
consideration of tariff revision is ,
expected to produce an even great- !
er number of more or less bitter
disputes.
The senate will he confronted
aagin Monday with the proposal of
Sena'or Borah, republican. Idaho,
to instruct the finance committee
to confine its tariff revision to agri
cultural products Borah was one
of the leading figures in the demo
cratic-republican independent group
which stood out for debentures over
the president's opposition
Senator Watson of Indiana, re
publican leader, who marshalled
the administration forces in that
contest, is again aligned against
him in the tariff dispute, favor
ing the gene*-al sort of revision ap
proved by the house
Hoover Wants Limits
Th® president recommended lim
ited revision with especial attention
1o agricultural needs, and many ob
servers are finding it difficult to
determine which man be described
as the "administration group" in
the new contest. Nevertheless, thev
expect the Borah proposal to draw
its principal support from the
democrats and republican inde
pendents who opposed the si
dent on debentures, with the oppo
sition coming from the "adminis
tration group" of that contest
The house, meanwhile, will be
called upon next week to appro

PAINFUL EFFECTS

Relieved By the Help of
Black-Draught.
Huntington, W. Va.—Mr* Ida
Perry. 1715 Charleston Avenue, this
city, says:
‘'Sometimes I suffer from Indiges

relief follows a dose of Black
Draught. This medirine is also ex
cellent for constipation, and I am
glad to recommend it.
"All last, winter. I suffered fmm
pains in my legs and across my back.
I did not sleep well at all. and was
very nervous. I could scarcely walk,
and was unable to eiimb up and
down the steps. I was almost, past
going, and it took all my strength
to get around. Mv housework was
a great care, ar.d I did not feel
equal to it.
*'I was in a condition that had
been coming on me for a long time
before I knew it. My trouble was
from absorbed poisons, but I did not
realize it until I was in actual pain.

use it frequently. I feel lots better
after I have taken Black-Draught."

Beautiful Ha nds—Despite
Spring Housework -I
By JOSEPHINE HUDDLESTON
Weep no more my friend!*, if your hands appear careworn and
neglected, now that the many houseeleantng and gardening tasks aro
over. Just devote a few minutes each day to hand culture and the tex
ture of the skin os well a.s the health of the nails will b» restored to all
thei rprevlous glory.
What with the gardening and hnuseeleaning
tasks yqur hands must indeed appear neglected un
less you are one of the few cleverly alert women who
give immediate attention to such matter*
Washing the hands several times each day and
applying a soothing lotion will soon restore their
beauty. Any lotion containing a large amount of
almond and honey ts excellent. If the hands are ex
tremely grimy, a generous amount of this lotion
rubbed over them will remove the surface grime and
help cleanse the pores. Then wipe off the lotion with
a fresh cloth and wash the hand*; with warm water
and snap. Another supply of hand lotion should M
used after the soap and water cleansing to soften
the skin.
' warpMair Sometimes, when the hands appear rough, but
rc-T-mvi thr nn,,s nrr ln conri conf1,t,on- n tmeroTi' amount
rUODLtblUN cf camphor ice massaged over them will re.-ton* the
skin to its natural color
A splendid bleach for the hands Is a parte made of buttermilk and
corn meal. After cleansing the hands and forearm*, rinse nfl all soap
and dry well. Add sufficient buttermilk to one cupful of rornmea! to
make a smooth paste spread this:
paste evenly over the hands and
forearms. Then using either three
inch bandage gauze or cheesecloth,
begin at the base of the thumb and
wind it over the hands and arms.
Saturate the gauze by patting but
termilk over it. keeping it moisten
ed for 15 minutes, then allow It to
dry naturally.
While the bandage Is drying, the
tips of the fingers, not already cov
ered with the bleach, ould be dip
ped into a basin of the bleach
paste When the bandage has thor
oughly dried, simply remove it and
rinse the hands and arms in clear
water then pat a hand lotion over
the newly treated area.
Wearing gloves while one sleeps
Is an excellent idea. Before don
ning sleeping gloves, cleanse the
hands with warm water and soap
using a hand brush to make sure
that all the pore and the area
around the nails are well cleansed
Then massage a liberal amount of
nourishing cream or*er the hands,
managing it into the skin, begin
ning at the tips of the fingers and
working down well past the wrist
in the same fashion as new- elove'
are worked over the fingers and
