starvation, with mills laying off al
most daily and the municipal
authorities giving the jobless clubs,
and jails as their "relief" measures.

LONDON Oct. ID UNS3 /.
Will oil engines be used exclu-
sively in the automobile of the fu-
ture? Is the gasoline driven mo-
tor car engine doomed?
These are the questions every
British motor manufacturer is
asking.
Most of these manufacturers are,
building compresSion-ignition
types of oil engines. for cars, air
craft and motorboats In practig
callyt every case these engines are
being produced under the utmost
secrecy.
Even the most conservative
firms have produced. new high
speed aero engines working on the
compression ignition principle,
These engines have been extraor-
dinarily successful on test and
have produced enormous power.
Not only have they increased
the power and improved the run
ming of these remarkably econom-
tcal engines, but they have also
made it possible to decrease their
weight.
Formerly. the power of these
engines fell away at certain
heights. With the latest super
charger, engine power is main.
tanned at the greatest heights.

Loans Assured on Cotton

Carl williams of the federal farm board is quoted
as having said that cotton co-operatives would adj
vance to their members the largest amounts possible
on the 1880 crop. adding that would be not less than
IS per cent Of the market value OF the cotton and per-
haps more. Cotton Director Williams said his at
tention had been called to statements that cotton CO.
operatives would not be able to advance more than
six cents a pound this fall. He volunteered the in
formation that cotton co-operatives In Texas were
now advancing nine cents on unbiased. cotton at the
time Of delivery. and added ell co-operatives would
advance the largest possible amount consistent with
safety.
J. r. Martin Is assistant OF the United States farm
employment bureau. located in the city Of San An
tonic. He advises that a demand Of $4,000 laborers
to Work in Central and South Texas cotton fields
will shortly face the bureau. and that, notwithstand-
ing the fact that The fourth Tevas farn o~nn'ovr~@~f
bureau recently was opened in Brownsville, the San
Antonio bureau will bear the brunt Of furnishing cot
ton pickers for Central and Southt Texas.
Other bureaus are located at Fort Worth and FL
Paso. Cotton is the new money staple in Texas and
in the coast country and the Magic Valley the planters
are ready for the piclers. Texas Is the greatest of cot
ton producing states. VIII there be a fat or lean crop

Passing of Marshall Hicks

Marshall Hicks. aged So. is dead. He was a native
Of Rusk county, Texas. He vas a product Of the
state university. He had a brilliant career as a
lawyer. He had held many positions Of honor o. q
emolument. He had been in the political picture in
Texas for 30 years. His wife. a most engaging and
delightful woman. died last year. This appears to
have fastened the end OF a very genial and high
minded man whose friends were legion the South
west over.
IN his youth he was a follower Of James Stephen
Hogg. He was engaged in the practice Of law at
Laredo when the Mexican borderland was a wild and
picturesque section Of Texas. He had a law office
in the Alamo City. Hogg made the youthful lawyer
the first district attorney ever appointed in what IS
known Is the laredo section OF Texas He served
with credit 10 himself and his people.
He was the head for many years Of one Of the lead
Sng law firms Of the state, and Robert Lee Bobbitt
vas first a protege OF the Hicks brothers and later
a member OF the firm. He established his residence
in San Antonio in 1895, the year that Hogg stepped
cut and Charles A. Culberscn stepped in. He served
@ term RS mayor Of San Antonio and next he repre-
sentcd the Alamo district in the upper chamber Of
the Texas legislature. He vas president OF the Alumni

Now the Good Bishop Has a Boss

Bishop James Cannon, Jr, married a dashing Wild
ow. under special license in London and the honey
mooners sailed away for Brazil to enjoy trotting in
double harness. Mrs. Helen Hawley McCallum threw
the moose that led the bishop 10 the altar and now
she is the boss OF the Cannon household where ers.-
while she officiated as private secretary.
Bishop Cannon Jr. was the political boss Of the
democratic party for II years, perhaps longer, in the
grand old state Of Virginia. He led a revolt to the
republicans in 1923. and the Vrginians who didn't
like It led a revolt against the Cannon leadership in
1929 and defeated his choice for governor by a ma
jority OF $4,000. the largest ever rolled up for 4 gov
ernor In the commonwealth known as the Mother Of
Presidents.
In other words, Vox Populi became the boss IN
Virginia. and now a very energetic and fascinating
woman has become the boss in the household Of the
bishop. 1t is not safe for a man to be alone.

Texas u.
In national politics he played a prominent part
for years. He was q delegate to the Baltimore con-
vention and an earnest worker for the nomination Of
Woodrow Wilson. He affiliated with Frank @. Davis
and Thomas B. Love In the McAdoo campaign and
in 1920 was a delegate at large to the San Francisco
convention where Love attempted to force the nomi-
nation Of McAdoo and William Jennings Bryan did
his level best to deadlock the convention in order,
those who were close to him said. to win the prize
for the Prince Of Peace. perpetual candidate for the
presidency. He was a delegate at large again to the
Madison Square Garden convention, a delegation
which was picked in the city Of Waco by the khan
leaders in the month Of May, 1924.
What happened In New York is ancient history.
Thomas q. Love and Cato Sells managed the forces
sent from Texas and other southern states. but Me
Adoo was slaughtered for a second time after one Of
the most acrimonious political contests in the history
Of the democratic party. Marshall Hicks. in that
campaign. emphatically denied that he was a klans-
man. and he voted for Mrs. Miriam A. Ferguson who
headed the regular democratic ticket in the November
election Of that year. He appears to have retired
from active politics after the defeat Of Felix Robin
son, but he was a staunch supporter Of Dan Moody
for governor in 1926 and again In 1923.
He was a member of many clubs and fraternal
societies. He was a Mason of high degree. He was a
champion Of law enforcement. an ardent prohibition
Est. but he believed in constructive legislation. the
solution or attempted solution of economic problems,
and he was ever for the forward movement in Texas
in a developing sense. He knew intimately every
governor from James S. Hogs to Dan Moody. and
among his closest friends were men Of prominence in
Texas who did not subscribe to many OF his pet poll
cies or economic vagaries.
For years and years he was a close personal and po-
litical friend OF William Jennings Bryan and ever for
Bryan in his political programs until the name Of
William @. McAdoo was presented to the San Fran
cisco convention as a candidate for the presidency.
He battled for McAdoo in two disastrous campaigns
disastrous to the democratic party as well as to the
California statesman. He had a rare personality. he
never held malice. he was generous in his charities.
loyal in his friendships and, all in all, a very fine
type Of American manhood.

Letters
The Brownsville Chamber Of
Commerce is receiving hundreds OF
letters from folks in the north and
east and west. asking about the
Valley and saying that this place
as a summer and winter resort Is
increasingly popular.
This Is really very much in
favor OF this section. and shows
that before long the Valley VIII
rank along with California and
Florida as the mecca for tourists.
However, the chamber must neces-

BUSINESS MUST
AWAKE TO CHANG
ED CONDITIONS

New York.-Business and industry
must awaken to changed conditions,
Or. Robert A. Milliken, physicist and
former Nobel prize winner, told mem
bers of the Association of Life Insur-
ance Presidents at their convention
here.
DIR. Milliken said business must
create system Of scientific planning
and develop insurance for unemploy-
ment, sickness and old age, or these
functions will be taken from them by
government.
The brutal fact" Of overproduc-
tion, which he put at the root of the
trouble, was rather the result of
stimulation by the effects Of the
World War, he said. This problem of
unbalanced production" could not
wait long for solution, if the pres
ent form of society is to survive. he
asserted.
