STUDENT CLAIMS
(Special to The Herald!
SAN BENITO. Sept. 5—Valley
chambers of commerce have been
requested by J. O. Gamer, appar
ently a student of the University
of Texas, to take some action to
prevent what he terms as extrava
gant claims” of the South Texas
Teachers College at Kingsville to
affiliation and recognition of its
courses and degrees .such claims
being made, according to the stu
dent. in advertisements of the col
lege.
Gamer sets forth that he lost a
year's work, due to the fact that
all of his work at the South Tex
as institution was not recognised
at the University of Texas, and
accuses officials of the college of
‘knowingly allowing high school
graduates to form false estimates
of the recognition given the Bach
elor of Arts degree by standard
institutions.”
The young man sent the letter
to J. E. Bell, secretary of the Ban
Benito chamber of commerce, who
replied that the advertisements
and courses of the college were
outside the scope of his organiza
tion.
EXPERT URGES
INDIVIDUALITY
Rotary Speaker Deplores
'Blanket Prescript ion’
Of School System
* Change the system to allow for
individual differences, rather than
try to change the individual to fit
the system,” was the educational
theory advocated by Ben D. Wood,
herd of the bureau of educational
research at Columbia university, in
a talk to the Rotary club Wednes
day.
“Under the present system, a
blanket prescription is forced on all
children in the puliltc schools, re
gardless of tastes and ability, with
the result that most pupils waste a
great deal of time on subjects for
which they have no inclination, and
will never have any use in later
life.” Wood declared. “I shudder to
think of what might have hap
pened had not Edison, Ford. Issac
Newton and most of our other great
thinkers and inventors managed to
evade the stifling experience of a
formal education.”
Miss Bertha Young, a student of
music In the conservatory at Bos
ton. who has been home on her va
cation, favored the club with two
piano solos which were well re
ceived.
In pursuance of a program of in
dustrial talks given by members of
the club. Mike Groom, manager of
the Rio Grande Valley Gas com
pany here, gave an interesting ac
count of the Valley's gas supply.
George White was presented by
W. 8 West. president of the club,
with a button for 100 per cent at
tendance during the past year.

DANCY’S NEW PAVING PLAN
WOULD ASSURE BOND ISSUE ,
FOR ROAD TO BOCA CHICA
.^ _ ' ' 111
Continuing his efforts to break
the dead-lock that now exists and
to get the county paving program
under way again. Judge O. C.
Dancy has evolved another plan
which he believes should satisfy the
largest number of people in the
county. This plan will probably
be placed before the commissioners'
court for consideration Monday.
Its outstanding point is that it
complies with the demands of the
Harlingen water district, supple
menting the fund put up by the
San Benito precinct in order to ex
tend the Dobbs and Wedegartner
contract in such a manner as t»
complete the paving to Rangerville
with grading and structures on the
Military road.
The proposed order provides that
contract for the Rangerville paving
would be let as soon after the grad
ing and structures were assured as
possible but that this paving con
tract be executed only after the
Harlingen irrigation district had
agreed to reorganise in such a
manner as to remove the indebt
edness of that district as an ob
stacle to issuance of the remaining
road bonds.
This would permit the county to
issue bonds in such amounts as to
permit paving of the Boca Chica
road out of the Brownsville per
centage of the money.
Military Road Pavement
It paves the two gaps in the Mili
tary road. This means protection
of all the riVer levees and of all
the pumping plants for the 15 water
districts in the county, Dancy ex
plained.
Judge Dancy especially points out
that except for the amount oi
money put up bv the San Benito
precinct in the Dodds and Wede
gartner contract now held in
escrow, it does not touch any part
of the six million dollar county
road bond issue voted Jan 29. 1937
and therefore does not affect the
Harlingen resolution. However, bv
the unanimous consent of all mem
bers of the court it can later be
repaid out of the fifth or sixth
million dollars of these bonds
which are yet to be issued and also
with such unanimous consent of
! all members of the court could be
loaned temporarily out of the fifth
! or sixth million.
This money would not touch the
! road and bridge maintainance fund
i received from the 15 cent tax. as'
I it comes from the county's prepor
i tion of the auto license fees and
| fum fines. Last year Cameron
; county's auto license fees were
approximately $100,000. It is doubt
j ful. however, whether all of the
I fund can be met from this money, j
f Judge Dancy believes that if any,
j three members of the commission- J
I ere court are re-electd, "every
i penny of this financing will come
; from auto fees and fines, but we J
I can't guarantee beyond our term.'
Tax Rate Not Increased
"If warrants have to be issued.!
it will not increase the tax rate one j
cent as even this year we have it;
to the 15 cent maximum, under the
constitution. We have around $350 - ;
000 of 6 per cent time warrant is-1
suing capacity. We pledge our- j
selves not to put warrants on the J
open market as such but to re-1
fund them Into bonds at a lower
rate of interest, that is, if such be
comes absolutely necessary.”
*‘We pledge ourselves that if the
worst comes to the worst and we
have to issue and market time war
rants or bonds refunding such war
rants. then we are to issue and sell
so much of the six million as may
equal the tune warrants or bonds
so issued. In other words, we will
not increase the interest bearing
debt above the six million authoriz
ed during our term and we have
no control after our term closes,"
Judge Dancy continued.
“Whether or not this is a good
plan, it is better than no plan at
mil. I invite constructive criticism
from the press and tax payers." the
judge concluded.
Judge Dancy estfnates this pro
posed program would cost approxi
mately $315,00.
