«rl

Opposition But Is
Voted Down; Sec.
Wallace Is Lauded

OP)—Resolutions commending Sec
retary Wallace lor his conduct of
the cotton control plan and making
recommendations to the AAA re
garding the planV future Friday

A ten-point list of recommend

from 13 states. They had been call

J. T. Sanders of Oklahoma was

mendation that the government if
it deems it advisable In lieu of the
12-cent loan, guarantee the farmer
a parity return from cotton, cotton
seed and parity payments at least
equal to the gross amount received
In 1934.

Wallace, the resolutions adopted
Included the following:
.Retention of the processing tax
ok* some other form of compensatory
tariff, levied on the product bene
fited.
That the equalizing tariff be
placed on Jute. Jute products, sisal
products and other competing prod
ucts and the revenue be used to
reduce the cotton processing tax.
That all competing products
domestically produced be subjected
Vo processing tax. the revenue to be
AjH in cutting the cotton tax.
^That government agencies place
their orders for cotton goods im
mediately to aid the textile industry
in the slack summer season.
That the department of agricul
ture provide funds for research to
find new uses for cotton.
That the department of agricul
ture obtain adoption of the neces
sary measure to require cotton to
be sold by net weight. *
That the department acquire and
dispose of through charitable org
anizations all untenderable cotton.
That the government adopt a
fixed and definite plan to liquidate

the best of the modern mystery

The hair rising thrillers of the

era pale into insignificance when
compared to the modern thriller of

The relief from the thrill, aside
from a strong love interest between
Sally Blane and Charles Starrett

INFLATION AHEAD!

a few years hence at more than 100 shows that mo6t believe inflation
will go further than the government now intends it to go.
WHAT TO EXPECT ON BUSINESS VOLUME
Nothing is quite as important as business volume, the quantity
of goods turned out and distributed to consumers. Even profits are
incidental, for where there is volume there is apt to be prosperity and,
somehow, profits.
Perspective on business volume:
High peak in June 1929. 125. Down to low of 58 in July 1932.
Average, 1933. 76. Average, 1934, 79. Now running about 87.
figures represent monthly index of industrial production, by Fed
eral Reserve Board. 1929-25 average—100. Figures are adjusted for sea
I sonal variations, so that each month's figures show industrial production
in relation to ‘ what it ought to be” for that month.
Average for full year 1935 Is expected to be 82 to 84. This is the
composite estimate of many competent analysts who have contributed
to this series of letters. It is a highly controversal matter — the busi
ness volume during the remainder oi the year. This estimate of 82 to
95 is quite moderate. It is based on many considerations. Including due
weight for the retarding influences of politics.
Looking further ahead, estimates from the same sources:
1936 business volume perhaps 85 to 90. This is conservative.
The chances for better business than 85-to-90 in 1936 depend
considerably on whether new capital issues start on a large scale. This
depends on whether business confidence picks up. It WILL, but prob
ably not in buoyant fashion until late 1936.
1987 A FULL YEAR OF “PROSPERITY”
Of course, any vision two years ahead is foggy. It is lutile to try
to be too precise. There is danger of overlooking some factors, and of
giving improper weight to others. At best, figures far ahead can be
only impressionistic, but in an effort to give what seems to be the pic
ture without a great quantity of weeds, the figures are used. The same
processes suggest that—
1937 will be the earliest fall year of real “prosperity."
1938 also prosperous, perhaps with no big gain over 1937, perhaps
a consolidation of the gains of 1937. taking up the 1937 slack, perhaps
industrial production of around 115. as compared with 87 now.
New high plateau of business. 1939-41. preceded by four or five
of something resembling prosperity, followed by another depression, an
other liquidation of the excesses of the late ’SO’s.
Business cycles not yet ended? No, probably not. Recent reforms
may make them more moderate in both ups and downs, but the whole
economic and political system is probably not yet sufficiently develop
ed to prevent them. This view. V correct, has important bearing on
your owm plans for your future. Plans for the next three or four years
must be on a different basis than plans for the next ten years or longer.

RIVOIJ—SAN BENITO
Frankenstein, the screen's fictiti
ous monster character is at large
again. Karloff, the grotesque crea
ture of the original Frankenstein, a
murderous giant constructed from
parts of dead bodies and brought to
life at the height of a crashing elec
trical storm, comes to the Rivoli
Theatre in San Benito Friday and
Saturday and at the Arcadia Theatre
in Harlingen Saturday midnight
and Sunday and Monday in “The
Bnde of Frankenstein."
In this new picture the monster
is seen in further adventures of
such hair-raising nature that it is
said to furnish the ultimate in ghast
ly thrills. At the conclusion of the
original Frankenstein picture it
will be remembered that the monster i
was apparently destroyed in a bum-1
ing mill, but the opening scenes of
-The Bride of Frankenstein shows
how he escaped death and returns
to throw the entire country side
into a state of terror.
ARCADIA—HARLINGEN
The musical treat of the Arcadia
and Rlvoli theatres “May Festival of
Hits’' comes to the screen in "Reck

at the Arcadia Theatre and schedul
ed for Saturday midnight. Sunday
and Monday at the Rlvoli theatre
in San Benito.
Of first importance, the picture
introduces Jean Harlow and William
Powell as co-stars for the first time.
The glamorous star is seen as Mona
Leslie, a thrilling Broadway dancer
who rises to great social and pro
fessional heights, only to be plung
ed into depths of social disgrace by
the mad act of her millionaire hus
band.
Powell is seen as Ned Riley, a jov
ial sports promoter, who walks side
by side with Mona through her trials
and tribulations, and finally emerges
as “best man "

thing anyway."
He was referring to the slaying
more than a year ago of a filling
station operator shot to death in
a holdup at Hillsboro. Texaa Wit
nesses at the trial connected Ham
ilton and Barrow with the killing.
He was sentenced to life Impris
onment although he denied the
crime.
CLINGS TO HOPE
Even after night had fallen.
Hamilton had pleaded with Lee
Simmons, prison system manager,
to communicate with one of his
attorneys and ask him to hurry
here. Simmons failed for some time
to convince him that his lawyers,
his mother and Katie Jenkins, his
latest heart interest, had tried all
avenues and failed to help him.
Unsuccessful appeals were made
Thursday to Governor James V.
Allred and to the court of ap
peals in Austin.
Finally, however, he accepted
the inevitable and summoned a
icatfie of the natty that hr had
shown d Brine hie career To help
maintain him at the end.
A particular point of pride with
the runt bandit in life had been
hie natty drem.
“It looks bad for me to go over
with a pair of ragged pants." he
complained in or mi-jocular vein
aa he noticed a torn place in the
garment.
“And where are my suspenders?
My hip* are an small that my
breeches will probably fall off if
someone can't find them."
The suspenders were found and
given to him.
Several hours before the exec
ution Thursday night, newspaper
men asked Hamilton If he wanted
to my anything about the In
fluence of women on his life.
“None of them has any Influence
on me,” be replied. “None except
Katie—I love Katie."
Red-haired Katie Jenkins visit
ed him Wednesday—hating quit
a job aa a night clnb entertainer
in California to come here and try
to help him.
"How about giving some advice
on crime. Ray." someone prompt
ed.
“Oh. it’s no use saying anything
like that.” be answered. “Crime
doesn't pay. yoo can’t win in the
lout ran. bat w m pays Ml

death in atonement for my sins,"
he read from the statement
Both men had accepted the
Catholic faith. Beth wished a
pleasant Joarney to Father Fin
negan who will leave soon for a
vacation In Ireland.
Palmer interrupted the fasten
ing of the head straps to, say:
"I forgot to thank my two
friends from Corsicana who came
down to see the excretion."
Then he motioned for the ex
ecution to proceed. The friends
were a priest ad a physician but
their names were not learned.
