HIGHWAY BOND
issue IN HOUSE
Roads And Prison Measures
Get Attention Before
Close on March ID

AUSTIN, March 7.-(P)-Having
definitely decided on March IA for
sine die adjournment the legisla-
ture will set about now primarily TO
dispose Of the statewide highway
bond issue and penitentlary bills.
The bond issue is due to come up
in the house today, but a fight will
be made to bring the Wirtz party
bill ahead Of it. Proponents Of the
Writ meascre, designed to en-
power the democratic executive
committee to prescribe voters and
candidates who bolted the party
ticket last November, claim that if
the bond issue bill is disposed Of
first many members leaving for
home at the fag end of the session
might imperil passage of the party
bill.
The penitentiary bills were
thrown into free conference yeSter-
day when the house refused to con-
cur in the senate amendments to
it's measure. The house passed the
Young-Turner-Loy bill concen-
trating the prison system on state
owned lands south Of Houston and
fixing headquarters on either the
Ramsey or Darlington farms. When
it got to the senate, the Holbrook
measure, approved by Governor
Moody, was substituted for it. The
administration bill would leave the
matter of selecting sites for the
concentrated system to a board
composed of the prioSn commits
sion, Lieutenant governor, speaker
of the house and attorney general,
with power to buy and sell lands
for this purpose.
The senate yesterday passed the
Dunlap house bill legalizing moving
picture shows on Sunday after l p.
m, and the bill will now 60 TO the
governor for his signature.
The house passed the senate bill
raising the pay Of state rangers,
and it goes to the governor for his
consideration. Privates' pay would
be increased from $50 to $3.50
monthly, sergeants from 500 to

1O2 Plurality Combines To
Support Policies Of
New President

WASHINGTON, March 7.-tR-
Republican leaders in the house are
determined to use their increased
party strength in the Seventy-firs5
congress to support the policies Of
President Hoover.
The republicans will have a plu-
rality Of probable 102 members over
the democrats when the special SEES
sion of congress convenes in April
to revise the tariff and pass farm
relief legislation.
AS a result of the November cleo
tons the lineup shows 267 seats
are to be filled by republicans. 1i5
by democrats, and one by a farmer
labor member. One seat is in doubt
and another is vacant, both Of
which probably will be filled by
democrats.
This is the greatest majority the
republicans have had since before
the Wilson administration. So
strong are the republicans that
peace has been made with the indie
pendents who supported Senator
La Toilette in the 1924 presidential
campaign. If the Ratchet has not
been buried, at least that ritual has
been overlooked, because Represen-
tative Frear of Wisconsin was re-
stored to his place on the ways and
means committee, from which he
was ousted in 1926, because he fol-
lowed the insurgents.
To further indicate their power,
the republican leaders have agreed
to increase their memberships on
committees, particularly the i'm
portant ones, by a majority Of two
to one Committees Of twenty-one
members are to have IA republicans
and seven democrats. A democratic
vacancy on the agriculture COM
mittee was filled by Representative
Ebert S. Brigham, a republican, Of
Vermont.

Women Are Given Warning

Mrs. Mary p. Norton. democrat Of New Jersey. is
one Of the eight women in the house Of representa-
tives. She believes a new tariff bill will do more to
force women into politics than all the academic dis
cussions Of the past, present and future" She pre-
diets that if the republican tariff bill becomes a law
I'VE are going to find everything we eat. drink and
wear selling at a price beyond the means Of the av-
erage woman"
Mrs. Norton represents an industrial district.
Speaking Of farm relief she made this declaration:
MANY sins have been committed in the name Of the
farmer. but the tariff bill is the greatest sin Of all.
When the farmer finds that his family will be taxed
SEC for every 10c worth Of protection that he re-
ceives. I believe he Will begin to realize that he is
really the big sufferer in this game OF hypocrisy"
Makers of things are the masters in the halls Of
congress. Growers of things have been the pack
horses OF the makers Of things for so years. AS for
the growers Of things they appear to like II.

No Hope for Peace


Josephus Daniels was the World war secretary Of
the American navy. He was one Of the pillars OF the
Wilson administration for eight years. He sees no
hope for world peace. In a recent address he said:
I'VE have the spectacle Of Great Britain tied TO
The body Of death in its slavish belief in the outworn
slogan Mistress OF the Seas and the United States
equally chained to the corpse of the lettering pa
fochial slogan No Entangling Alliances "
Josephus is ~pessimistic. He declared that just as
long as the two nations cling to those beliefs the
Geneva conference and all other conferences will fail
of their high and holy aim" Man has been a fight
ing animal from the beginning. He has fought for
women: he has fought for gold; he has fought for
land: he has fought for all the treasures Of the earth;
he has insisted from the beginning that might makes
right.
If JoSephus Daniels has the correct viewpoint, the
apostles Of the Nazarene have failed in their mission.
Josephus may be mistaken. Peace. world peace. may
come some day. But just SO long as Great Britain
~arrogates TO itself the right 10 control the seven seas
Of the world. the farewell address Of the father Of
his country will be the spiritual and political guide
book Of millions OF American men and women.
They. like Washington. will battle against en-
tangling alliances with foreign nations and foreign
people.

Robson Or the Rack

This newspaper has. said repeatedly that Land
Commr. Jas. T. Robinson should resign and retire 70
the shades Of private life. He refused to take the ad-
vice and now he is on the rack and faces impeach-
ment.
A special legislative committee was appointed
while the first special session was grinding 70 IN
v~estigate a thousand and one rumors relative TO the
handling Of the land department and the land affairs
Of thescommonwealth. This. committee employed &C
countants for an investigation Of retaliation tranSac-
lions and the finances or rather financial methods OF
the land commissioner.
These accountants investigated and they made a
report to the legislative committee. That committee
returned its findings to the legislature. The report
sweepingly condemned certain practices OF the land
commissioner as we'll as the alleged methods employ
ed In the handling Of the land department. Comnr.
Robson refused to retire. He defended his actions.
He threw down the gauntlet to the lawmakers.
Now the lawmakers must face the issue. They
have a duty TO perform. They are the servants Of
the people. They are the legislative guardians OF the
interest Of the people. It is for the lawmakers 10 oe-
eide the action TO be taken and the program to De
followed until the finish comes. There should be
no delay.
A public office is a public trust. If the land COM
missioner is innocent Of the charges he vindicated-
If he isn't he should be ousted from office.

BY HERBERT C. PLUnIHfER

WASHINGTON, June 14.-Out Of the washington

chugged a beautiful 4O-foot launch.
On board was Mrs. Herbert Hoover. In the after
cabin with her we're three or four friends.
In the channel the launch turned its nose down.
stream. And then gathering speed to around Is knots
per hour it soon was lost to sight in the direction of
Mount Vernon.
The No. 10000 was making its maiden voyage I'M
der the Hoover regime.
President Hoover ordered the yacht Mayflower into
exile. but No. 10000 was kept in Washington In the
event he ever felt the desire for recreation on water.
The launch was a part of the Mayflower's equip
ment. It was built for President Harding. Coolidge
made use Of it during his administration.
In the language Of the navy 1t Is the presidential
barge" 1t was used when the president desired to
leave the yacht when on a cruise. President Coolidge
made liberal use OF it during his administration when
he inspected the fleet.
When not in use the launch was carried on the
Mayflower. 1t was hoisted to its position amidship
on the port side.
