ness men Of Raymondville IN en-
tirety and other citizens have sign
ed a petition circulated here and in
Lyford and Sebastian. addressed TO
the railroad commission in Austin,
deploring changes and reduction Of
bus service.
The petition sets out that the
commission permitted the Missouri
Pacific bus Company to take off
the evening bus and run same at
noon, and that the lines r allowed
to conduct a one-day bus schedule,
whereas the town up TO the time
the franchise was granted, had en-
joyed for several years a service OF
three buses a day.
After the franchise was granted,
the petition reads further, the COM
pany not only removed all the
buSses except one. but reSorted TO
legal mean to keep all others from
giving the citizens Of the three
towns the service TO which they had
been accustomed; that at various
times several individuals and bus
lines attempted 10 give these COM
munities the service desired, but
were forced to stop because ofthe
M. p. franchise.
Many inconvenience have been
incurred by citizens because Of this
condition, the petition states, and
plea Is made that the railroad COM
mission force the NJ. p. to reinstate
the three buses per day schedule.

DEAD RISE
Insurance Company Fraud
Finds dead" Alive

NEW YORK. July l5.-CPl-An
insurance executive who observed a
supposedly dead man hurrying on
his way to work started an investi-
cation that has disclosed q million
dollar conspiracy.
Recalled that he recently saw
John McCoy's death certificate the
executive inquired about 1t. It was
all news to Mccoy.
The insurance man told District
Attorney Each OF Richmond county,
who soon discovered SO other per-
sons on whose supposed deaths the
Metropolitan Insurance company
had paid death benefits ranging
from s482 to $500. Two employees
of the company were arrested,
charged with classifying records.
None OF the persons whose death
claims had been paid we're aware Of
1t.
The District Attorney estimated
that insurance companies had been
defrauded Of millions OF dollars on
false death claims throughout the
city.
He said each claim involved the
theft or counterfeiting Of an off,
cial death certificate blank and the
health department seal. and forgery
OF the names Of the doctor, under
taker, cemetery officer. health dep
artment clerk, witnesses and bene-
ficiaries.

Is understood TO have been with
drawn temporarily. but those
watching the developments closely
are Of the opinion that it will be
placed in circulation again.
Advocates of bringing the intra-
coastal canal to Harrington insist
that the one project is all that the
district should be working for at
present, and that further efforts
to bring deep water to Harrington
would be useless. and possibly cause
enmity to develop among Valley
towns.
Dissatisfaction with the manner
in which the navigation districts
affairs have been conducted came
to a head with opposition expressed
in Washington by j.. B. Chambers
and General Beach to Brownsville's
and Point Isabefs port projects, as
they sought to bring deep water to
Harrington by cutting through Padre
Island.
The sum OF one-half million dol
lars is on deposit now In the name
Of the navigat ion district, following
a bond issue, and the chamber Of
commerce is favoring lending the
fund 70 the government in an ef-
fort to bring the intracoastal canal

lingen is not now ready for one,
that the additional tax burden Q4c
per 500 assessed valued ought TO
be carried now.
During the day numerous
speeches advocating the bond issue
were made over the radio. house
toulouse canvasses of doubtful vot-
ers were taken and one staunch op-
ponent rode over town On the hood
Of an automobile pleading with vot-
ers to defeat the bonds.
During the campaign. which has
grown rather heated the past few
days. airport opponents have been
making the most fuss but its advo-
Gates have shown the most organ
lied activity. Shop windows for
more than a week have contained
airport displays.
The parade scheduled for Monday
night was postponed on account OF
threatening weather but this did
not stop another one man parade.
A bitter opponent of the project
dressed himself in women's apparel
and toured the town with an anti
airport placard on his back.
One OF the largest turn-outs of
voters in the history Of the city is
expected. Strenuous efforts were
begun early in the morning by both
factions to bring their cohorts to
the polls.
