There II to be a $soyooo,ooo marketing corporation
organized and behind the organization viii be the
federal farm relief board. Chmn. Alexander w.
Legge and Carl williams. the cotton representative
Of the board. are coming to Texas to whip into shape
this combination which may be Of vast aid to the
growers Of the southwest.
Texas Is the greatest Of cotton states, but growers
are reminded that boil weevil ravages cost the farm
ers In certain Texas areas millions Of dollars In 1928.
They are reminded that Of the 100000 southern
farmers producing cotton little more than $1,000 OF
them are now members Of a cooperative association.
They are reminded that organization is the thing
and that II the cooperative idea is to win they must
band themselves together and work as one man for
the success Of the gigantic corporation to be under
taken by Chmn. Legge and his co-members.
Texas financial institutions are In a healthy con-
dition. And the federal reserve bank at Dallas in
its monthly bulletins and closing report for the year,
predicted the future will be rosy and that Texans
have no reason to be -pessimistc: indeed. that they
should carry on as they have carried on in the past
years and face the future with a confidence based
on courageous action and the determination to con-
ttnue to build and develop their commonwealth and
its vast natural resources as well as its productive
soil.
Texas Is destined to be the greatest Of American
states. Texas has all the raw materials including
mineral wealth which makes a state rich and power
full and its people prosperous and contented.
There is a gold mine under foot everywhere under
the skies Of Texas and the intelligent workers are

It is said that the cities and towns and villages Of
Texas will contain a majority Of the people Of Texas
In other words, that Texas has gone urban.

time the expansion Of manufacturing will continue
and some day the cotton and the wool and the mo-
hair produced In Texas will be turned into the fin
ished product In Texas mills and the hides OF Texas
will be taken by Texas tanners and Texas leather
will be turned into boots and shoes for the millions
Of wearers under the southwestern and Mexico skies
In Texas there is moisture In the earth.
In Texas the tillers OF the soil should be rewarded
with bumper crops this year when harvesting time
comes.
In Texas all the builders and the building agencies
are on the JOB.
In Texas the intelligent workers ever on the firing
line-indeed, all creators Of wealth are going to be
Just as busy throughout the new year as in the years
which have passed away.

CARELESS Of pessimists, regardless OF demagogues In

sential Issues Of an economic nature which produce
high wages and higher standards Of living for those
who toll In all fields Of labor and in all the walks
of human endeavor.
