citation Considered By
National Farm Board

DALLAS, Tex, Aug. 6.AR-The
Farmers Marketing Association of
America. Inc, which has the bulk of
Ito membership and strength in
Texas. may be designated as one Of

ization and orderly marketing Of

the agricultural situation with indi-
vsdual members of that body.
Tt has been clearly brought out
that the federal agricultural relief
fund win not be distributed to in
dividuals but through reputable
and successful cooperative agencies,
Wolf said.
Records" he added. "show that
about eight per cent of the cotton
farmers Of the South belong to CO.
operative marketing associations,
leaving 90 per cent out Of reach Of
the board"
Two former lieutenant governors
of Texas. Lynch p. Davidson Of
Houston and T. w. CWhit) David
son Of Dallas, were among the
ether speakers.
Fred David. former state agricul-
turai commissioner, discussed the
effect Of continued good prices. de-
claring that by stabilizing the price
Of cotton and providing more money
for the farmers their living condi-
tons would be improved greatly
and that they would be able to de-
crease the amount Of acreage now
planted In cotton.
"All agencies except the producer
who have anything TO do with cot
ton r In a position to establish
prices on this commodity he said
1T Is a challenge to the cotton
farmer Of the South to cooperate ir
the orderly selling of his crop. and
he must see that he gets more for
the crop than II takes to produce
same"
Election Of officers was to be held
late today.

The first indication that the
structure would be re-opened. after
having been closed to vehicles and

when Mexican Senator Del Vale
attorney for the Mexican National
railways. wired A. S. Gimble. gen.
eral agent for the NJ. p. lines. that
permission had been secured from
the minister Of communications to
lift the ban.
The bridge, owned jointly by the
st. Louis. Brownsville and Mexico
railway and the Mexican National
lines. was closed shortly after the
Gateway bridge was opened on the
grounds that It's concession from
the Mexican government called
only for train traffic. The bridge
had been carrying vehicular and
pedestrian traffic since its con-
struction in 1910.
The two rail companies imme-
diately began efforts IN Mexico
City to have the bridge reopened.
Senator Del Vale headed the coun-
sci working along this line.
Improvements Made
Shortly after the bridge was
closed. improvements were made
on both sides of the Rio Grande.
The road from Levee street TO the
bridge was paved and the APP
proacheS on both sides OF the river
widened. The Matamoros road also
has been paved to the bridge.
Although Gimble had definite in
formation July "a that the bridge
was to open. Matamoros officers
did not receive notification through
regular channels until yesterday

Macy Dislikes Rap At
County Commissioner
To The Herald

To The Herald:
We have read the petition pub
lished in your good paper relative
TO the paving OF Boca Chica road.
And we are for such road.
But that part of the petition con-
demning our commissioner for lack
Of endeavor, we know by personal
contact. is wholly unwarranted, to
say the least.
And as for those who have been
loudest In their acclaim for a paved
road TO Boca Chica-if some Of
these would only clean up their
own yards. roadsides and fields they
would make a far better impress
sion on the tourist.
Those who are so enthusiastic for
the Boca Chica road would be set
ting a worthy example If they would
clean up. their own places before
submitting advice to those who are
functioning officially for the whole.

LONDON, Aug. R.--P1-George
Bernard Shsw, foremost literary
Snowman Of Europe, today made q
defense Of political window dress
ing" before the independent labor
party school at Welwyn.
He pointed the moral Of his tale
by saying that the conservative
party had lost the parliamentary
general election In May because Its
leaders failed TO realize the value
of such window display. He told
the labor students that the conser-
vatives had bZd a good program
but never succeeded In advertising
IL.
by neglect Of window dressing
the late government contrived tc
convey an impression Of childish
ness and ignorance. which resulted
IN their being completely discredit-
ed" said Shaw.
c.. B. 8. had a few words TO char
acterize the other political parties.
he described the communists as
still dreaming and talking q lot
OF rubbish about revolutionary
working classes"
He thought the decline of the
liberal party va more apparent
than real. finding the liberals VIC
TINS Of the present British electoral
system.
The labor party was not e. actly
popular but 1t was the only party
that was not unpopular and people
voted for labor because the others
we're s. hopleess."
