DRIVER Is ARRESTED
Declares He Did Not Know

ed by Officer.

Jose Antonio Gomez. GO. known as

by an automobile and killed at 1 30
O'Clock Friday morning at South La
redo and Durango streets.

figure in the downtown district fOs
years. His favorite stand was at the
northeast corner of East Houston
he served patrons with newspapers
from early morning until late in the
night. Unlike the frislly. youthful
newsbOys' shouts of "AlI about the
KILN or the "Uxtra-All about de
big downtown robbery yet his regu-
lar patrons, police say, were num-
bercd by the score.
Waterman Fires at Car.
Gomez lived in an obscure dwelling
at 1O11 South Laredo street, less
than 100 feet from where he met
death. He is believed to have just
left the house and started to cross
Laredo street en- route to the city,
when run down.
Dan Muraida, 80 South Laredo

witness to the killing of Gomez. Me-
rida. night Waterman in that 10
cality. was patrolling his beat.
According TO Muraida, the. autOmo-
bile failed TO stop, alter the accident.
He says he shouted to the driver to
halt. and then fired with his pistol
at the autoist. At a point nearly
three blocks distant, the Waterman
succeeded in bringing the automobile
to II stop.
Driver Unaware OF Accident.
The driver told .he pOliceshe was
unaware of the accident until advised
by Muraida. he had struck man.
When Mounted Office Kilburn

covered he was dead. Examination

Increasing Income
As Long As You Live!

That's what units in the Tex-La Pecan
Orchards mean. And even then they will
prove a splendid inheritance for your chill
dren and your children's children, since the
trees bear for hundreds of years.
This is no ordinary investment. The first
profitable yield from these acres should re-
turn to you the entire purchase price. Then
your profits are just beginning.
And such profits! 1t is not at all I'M
usual for a grated paper shell pecan tree
to bear as much as 600 pounds of nuts in
single year.
Each year means greater and ever
greater yields; the older the tree the more
it bears. You may get tired of working,
but your trees won't!
And remember: You can be buying your
units with that money you "throw away"
every day. You won't even miss it!
Yes, we plant the trees-20 grated
paper shell pecan trees to each unit
