Moody on the Firing Line

Gov. Moody after pushing along the buy a bale Of
cotton movement turned his attention to the unem-
ployment problem. He advised his highway commits
sioners and the road engineers that much Of the
road work is manual labor and now that the crops
hav efailed and the farmers demand employment TO
earn money with which to buy food and clothing, it
is up to us to do all possible"
Very optimistic IS the retiring governor of Texas
In his message TO civic organizations he said: Il
firmly believe that We viii be able to take 10000
bales of cotton off the market so that people who
have done drudgery in the cotton fields Of the south
TO produce a commodity in world wide demand. may
get a reasonable return for their effort. 1t is un-
considerable that a world market should require our
people to gather their crop under the ~blistering
southern sun for a price below the cost OF produC-
ton"
Push along the "buy-a-bals' movement. Push
along highway construction and furnish idle labor
ers in farm or city an opportunity to keep the home
fires burning-the home fires Of those who are de-
pendent upon them-those they love. There is lct
Of human kindness In the heart Of America and in
the hearts of Americans.

Are the Bulls Coming Back?

Are the bulls coming back in Wall street? II not,
they are showing unwonted activities. AT least they
are coming out OF the woods. There are stocks which
are as sound as the Rock Of Gibraltar. There are
bonds that are as good as gold. 1t goes without
may languish for a while and then the tide turns
and the waves Of prosperity roll high. This is world
history. This is American history. This is the his
tory Of the commonwealth.
There are 254 counties in Texas. According TO
Gov. Moody there are 80 where the drouth played
havoc with the larders and pocketbooks Of hundreds
of people. Texas has a population nearing the $780,
600 mark. President Hoover has named his general
committee to cooperate with state committees. Gov.
Moody has named the state committee There will
be local committees. Relief work should be granted
without delay. America is the richest Of nations and
the national income of America is greater than the
national income OF the British empire or France
and Germany combined. Drouth never plays IA
yorites in a stricken community or section.
There are vast church organizations in Texas
There are huge fraternal organizations. There are
chambers Of commerce ever kept functioning by the
enterprising and the far seeing. In l924-2o the
Texas drouth was a real drouth. When Grover
Cleveland was president more than half the western
section was blistered by the heat and thousands o.
settlers deserted their homes.
Nwo West Texas is wealthy. East Texas is wealthy
South Texas is wealthy. Central Texas is wealthy-in-
deed all sections OF Texas are fairly prosperous as the
financial reports Of the federal reserve board bear
testimony and tell the story of the forward move
ment in recent years of the southwestern empire.
Decisive action is expected. Where there is relief
needed it should be carried without red tape APP
