OPEN PORT LAW
GOING THROUGH
INITIAL TRIAL
Ten Texas Railroad Gen.
ters Are Being PollCed
by Rangers on Account
of the Railroad WaIkout.
BY the Associated Press.

Austin, Tex, Sept. 3--The Texas
open port law, passed by special
session of the Texas legislature IN
1920, is going through its initial
trial as result of the present rail-
road strike, Since the beginning
of the strike. ten Texas railroad
centers have been placed under the
law and are being policed by state
rangers.
Texas is the only state in the
nation, according to state officials,
that has such law. 1t was passed
as a result OF the situation at Gal
weston during the strike of long
snOremen in 1920. 1t is designed TO
empower the governor Of the state
to take complete charge of ponce
activities in any specified territory
when commerce is being inter-
rupted, without invoking marital
law
The open port statute had been
virtually forgotten until the pres
ent strike. No attempt had been
made to invoke its provisions or
test its constitutionality
Jne e1IccIlNtn HSS u lllc dSl, az
cording to state officers, is made
possible by the fact that before
Texas became a state. system OF
state rangers was established as the
official police organization. the
normal force before the strike was
forty-seven. This number has been
augmented and approximately $50
special rangers are commissioned.
These police officials are stationed
at railroad centers where open port
law has been invoked. and in more
than twenty other centers of strike
activity.
Upon declaring open port law,
the governor assumes complete
control of all police activities and
state rangers named by which the
governor shall enforce the law.
Violation is felony Although the
law has been in force less than
month in any Texas town, state Of
ficials declare it is a decided sue
cess and is a great financial saving
to the state as compared with mar
tial law action. In the centers
where the law has been put in
force the railroads are voluntarily
paying the cost of maintaining the
state rangers.

ANE RIGA IS At
THE THRESHOLD
OF PROSPERITY
Secretary Davis Says We
Can Look Forward With
Pride Upon the Achieve
mentS of Last IL Months
BY the Associated Press.

Washington, Sept. 3,-Secrctary
Davis in a Labor day mess lge to
the American people made public
tonight, declared that 1--WE can look
forward with pride and gratitude
upon the achievements of the last
~ months" and that during this
period America has been brought
to the threshold of an uneNampled
prosperity"
But for the industrial strike
which has been evident for several
months throughout the country.
the secretary added, the outlook!
of the nation would not have been
darkened during the year.
We must find a common ground
Of fairness and cooperation for
employers and employees where
they can adjust their differences
without recourse to an appeal to
force" he said. There can be no
justification for bloodshed and de-
struction in America today"
The labor secretary declared that
"two great things have been ac-
complished in American industrial
life"
I'VE have conquered the menace
Of unemployment which threatened
us" he said, land we have prevented
a wage panic in the ranks Of labor
We haye put between four and five
million men back to work and we
have put them back to work with
wages which leave the general
wage level of the nation very little
below the high point reached fol-
lowing the war"
Despite the pressure of unem-
ployment, Mr.. Davis said, we have
forestalled those shortsighted en-
ployers who saw in the situation
only an opportunity to beat down
the price of labor, adding that
Through these lines we have
brought America to the threshold
Of an era of uneXampled prosper
ity."

WORK ON ROAD TO BEGIN REAL
SOON.
Estimated That 1t Will Require
Twelve Months to Complete
Jackson County Highway.

Pascagoula, Miss, Nov. 23.-Gen-
eral satisfaction was expressed yes
terday by citizens and road officials
on the contract fixed Tuesday by the
Board of Supervisors for building
eight and one-half miles of the route
of the Old Spanish Trail through this
county. S. A. Gano, of New Orleans,
to whom the contract was awarded,
filed a bond in full amount of the
contract price and left for New Or
leans. He expects to return in few
days with a force of men to begin
work. It will require about twelve
months working time to complete the
route.
Claude Delmas, of this city, has OBJ
tanned contract to provide the ce-
ment to be used in constructing the
road. About 1000 barrels will be re-
quired and it will take 180 cars to
transport the cement to the county.
Trail boosters learned from Fred
Smith member of the State Highway
Commission, that of the $4,000, 900
allotted by the federal government
for roads in Mississippi, $500, 900
would be used to complete the Old
Spanish Trail through the States

county in February, according to
plans now being worked out.

THE HUNTERS REWARD.

"Many hunters returned unsuccess-
full" says news report, commenting
on the hunting season.
No real hunter is ever unsuccessful.
He may not bring back game to the
city, but he returns a better man
physically for his outing.
There is more to hunting than the
killing of game, just as there is more
in fishing than catching fish. The
stay-at-home giggles namely when
he sees an angler or gunner trudging
home at twilight with empty creei
or bag, but if he only could get it
through his obtuse skull the laugh is
really on him. Of course, there are
pot hunters and fishermen whose hog
gish practices bar them from the
ranks of decent sportsmen, but they
are not the men who come nome
from stream or woods empty-handed.
The true sportsman delights in the
game rather than the score. A full
creel or a well filled bag is his trophy
of success. But he knows that no
IIldH Gdft IlOpS W Will OH tAlS 1iAiaO NAAASA
he is quite content when he returns
empty-handed, for he has had health
full recreation and has communicated
with nature in manner that only the
outdoors-man knows He has learned
new lessons from brooks and trees,
from fishes in the streams, from ami
mails in fields and woods; he has
smelled the sweet odors of the forest,
he has in his nostrils the tang of field
and moorland; he has seen pictures
artists have striven in vain to paint
he has found:
'Books in the running brooks,
Sermons in stones,
And good in everything"
There is no such thing as an un-.
successful hunting trip. - Laurel

Complete poise and earnestness
marked Mrs. Feltons address, made
from the center aisle. Her voice
reached all parts of the chamber
without culver of age, or agitation.
She spoke extemporaneously and with
her quaint humor drew laughs from
senators and round of applause at
the close. She thanked the Senate
for beautiful, hospitable well
come," and was applauded when she
said:
"You can take this remnant OF the
old South that has never fiickered in
her patriotism and you can be very
well assured that she is not going to
disgrace her commission"
In closing, she declared that wom-
en- would bring to the Senate ability,
integrity and exalted purpose.

The announcement of Chief OF
Prohibition Haynes from Washington
is announced by the New Orleans
press with much publicity, and gen
eral cleanup is promised. The an
nouncement with SO much publicity
from Washington is very thoughtful
to the bootleggers. 1t is very con-
siderate indeed. Unthought of, to
say the least.
Commissioner Haynes, according to
the New Orleans Times-Picayune, is
due to arrive in New Orleans Decem-
Der 4th. That journal says:
Concentrated enforcement of the
prohibition lasw will be tried in the
South, with New Orleans as the focus
of effort, according to Washington
dispatches and statements by city and
divisional agents.
Prohibition Commissioner Roy c..
Haynes will leave Washington next
week for tour of Southern cities.
He will arrive in New Orleans De-
cember 4, the closing day Of the Anti
Saloon League convention.
The tour will be marked by re-
organization of offices in several large
cities, according to press reports.
Meanwhile prohibition agents IN
New Orleans are preparing for the
storm by compiling a list of all
known and suspected bootlegging es-
tablishments in the city as a prelim-
mary to a general raid they declare
will be of unequaled proportions.
Time of Raids Secret.
Again the city is threatened with
dryness, as it has been in the past.
A net will cover the city before Or
after the scheduled arrival of the
commissioner, it was stated. The
agents aren't telling just when the
raids will begin, but admit they will
be thorough.
The affair will be in the nature of
a winter drive and is expected to put
the finishing touches on the prohibi-
ton enforcement departments deter
mination to present the city with dry
ness as a Christmas gift, according
to Conrad w. Austin, divisional chief
Intelligence men, from the bureau of
internal revenue, have been investi-
eating for the divisional forces and
have turned over their evidence.
Austin and J. D. Taylor, director,
declared they will concentrate their
agents In an effort to make as many
raids as possible in a single day.
Thus the bootleggers will be unable
to receive warnings in time.
bad News" Announced.
Another bit of ''bad news" for
those who like their liquor is con-
cealed in the announcement that a
second speed boat has been shipped
from Detroit and will arrive in New
Orleans within a week. Divisional
acquisitions for a third speed boat
and for two seaplanes have been hon
ored.
Commissioner Haynes is under
stood to have pledged governors of a
majority of Southern States to sup
port the federal agents. The coming
tour will be an effort to obtain local
aid.
The flow of liquor from South to
North is constant, it is claimed, and
the commissioner hopes that by chok-
ing pipe lines the North will be dried
as well as the South. Local agents
are blamed for importations which
slip through Southern ports from
Cuba and the Bahamas.
