MIR. Taxpayer, Think of This

There Is enough natural gas SONG to waste in
Texas to more than pay the entire tax burden Of the
state government" declared Retiring Pres. Q. w. Kill
lam Of Laredo at the opening session OF the South
Texas Chamber Of Commerce. he was speaking Of
the natural resources u South Texas.
He declared that San Antonio consumers we're
paying more for natural gas than persons in Kansas
and Oklahoma are paying for gas produced within
the state Of Texas. This Laredo builder shot his
message straight from the shoulder. Continuing he
said:
Il don't know the answer. but our natural resources
must he conserved some way and 7 want my sue
cessor TO give this considerable thought during the
coming year. It is not right and proper that we
here in South Texas should be forced to pay more for
products Of our own section than the states away
from us"
why the waste OF natural gas?
Why should Kansas and Oklahoma consumers Of
Texas natural gas pay less for it than the consumers
OF Texas?
o. w. Killam is a prominent developer Of the lower
country. He knows all about gas and oil production.
He has been playing the game for years, he knows
the game, he has made money as a player Of the game
and he gives vent to his honest convictions relative
to conservation Of the natural resources Of the COM
monwealth-
Texas has lawmakers. Are the lawmakers eonser-
vationists? II not. why not?

Tertiary and is at large.
in Texas a person accused Of crime j. guaranteed

should be given a fair and impartial trial.
TO be exact. If the critics OF the judiciary arc not

its place in the public prints. A very pompous and
