Judge Minor Soundly Spanked

The law is as good as gold and it is constitutional
clear through" declared Presiding Judge w. S. Fly of
the fourth court of civil appeals in setting aside the
injunction granted by Judge r. B. Minor Of Bexar
county restraining the state from distributing the
s~5.000,000 rural school aid fund.
That is, the Minor injunction was dissolved, the
Fly opinion was the unanimous verdict Of the civil
appeals court and the rural schools will continue
their terms uninterrupted unless the supreme court
issues an emergency writ restoring the injunction
against paying out any other funds.
Said Fly to Minor. "the law is as good as gold and it
Is constitutional clear through" Said Minor to Fly,
after the spanking. NO comment
Farmer Jim Ferguson invented the rural aid law.

Public Officials and Their Paw

Rep Mcdonald Of Waxahachie is "the gentleman
from Ennis" He has introduced a bill slicing the
salaries Of all judges from the supreme court TO the
district $1,000. this without regard to color or creed or
previous condition Of servitude.
Lest we forget. the supreme court judges receive
$4,000 annually and the district judge receives a salary
of $1,000 per year. There's another side to the pic
ture. House lawmakers and senate lawmakers as
well are planning to pass a fee bill where the maxi
mum salary will be $4,000 a year for a county official.
To the shame Of the people of the state, the salary
of the governor is $4,000 a year.
If a district judge isn't worth $4,000 to the people
and to the cause Of justice, he should be relegated to
a job In the nearest brick making plant. and II a
high court judge isn't worth $4,000 a year there is a
reason for Justice being blindfolded and cheese par
ing legislative economists having an existence in
this vale of tears.
All business men and all corporations pay for
brains. Why shouldn't the people pay for brains?

Cut in Cotton Acreage Planned

Carl Williams. cotton representative OF the federal
farm board, travelled from Austin TO Jackson, Miss,
for a conference with the members OF the cotton
acreage reduction committee Of the American Cotton
Cooperative association.
Was there action taken? Yes.
An educational campaign will be launched through
the cotton states to cut the 1880 acreage by 100000
acres below that Of 1929. In other words. to hold it
tural depression and would be threatened with econo-
below 90 100000 acres.
Carl williams shot his message straight from the
shoulder. He said that unless cotton acreage was
reduced the South would continue to suffer agricul-
mic catastrophe.
There are landlords and bankers and merchants all
powerful in the cotton districts of all the cotton
states.
