Ferguson
(Rv The Associated Press.l }

AUSTIN. Tex. Feb 27 Despite Gov
ernor Miriam A. Ferguson's honoring
the requ sitons of the governor of Ar
kansas for the extradition Of w. II.
Hall, former chairman of the board Of
control Of Arkansas, and A. j. Gurley,
former Miller county sheriff, vigorous
efforts will be made to enforce their
pardons granted By Acting Governor :.
B. Mccall
Sid Crumpton Of TeXarkana, attorney
for Gurley, said ne will seek writs Of
habeas corpus in both federal and
state courts to prevent extraction Of
Gurley from Texarkana, Texas.
c. R. Groom Of FL Paso, attorney for
Hall, said he would attempt TO have
the courts in Arkansas rectify the par
don granted in Governor Tom J. Ter
rails absence
Governor Ferguson, who for the sec
ond time heard a fight for Gurley.
made no comment when honoring the
acquisitions, following a lengthy hear
ing today in which she was told by
counsel that she sat in higher judgment
in this case than the Arkansas supreme
court which recently ruled the pardons
void.
Crumpton attacked Governor Terral's
policy Of not granting pardons and said
that the Arkansas governor had VIZ T.
ten across the gates to the walls of the
Arkansas prison, "Yn VI" enter here
leave all hopes behird." Tom Campbell
Of Little Rock, personal attorney tc
to the Arkansas governor, denied the
charge, saying that Terral promised
the people Of Arkansas not to pardon
any convicts during his administration
before he was elected.
1t was obvious that Governor Fergu-
son based her act on the pardons ruled
void by the Arkansas supreme court.
W. R. Henson is the agent appointed
to retula Hall from Ell Paso and Mrs
Lille Barber, sheriff Of Miller county
was appointed to return Gurley.

Four Solid Cars Celery
to be Shipped This Week

continues to be as profitable as the
first crop.
Last year these two men planted
quarter of an acre of celery. They rel
ceived from that small patch $500. At
this rate they should receive $4,000 an
acre for their crop this year, or a to-
tai Of $4,000 for the entire crop.
The price which is being received
for celery now indicates that they will
receive that amount, according to T.
