in OUR
VALLEY

VALLEY LEGISLATORS, So
\ journing in the legislative halls at
: Austin, have always made a fine
record OF achievement. but seldom
has any Valley pair been as SUCCESS
full in putting through measures
pertaining TO this immediate Sec
ton as have been Milton West from
Cameron and II. L. Leonard from
Hidalgo Counties.
An amended green fruit law. a
citrus zone law. the Valley conser-
walton district measure, jU. TO
name three measures of major i'm
portance, we're handled with dis
patch by these gentlemen, assisted
by the senator from Duval. The ped
oilers bill was amended to eliminate
features Objectionable TO the VAL
ley. and features designed to protect
Valley growers and shippers we're
added.
In addition to these matters Of
major importance, several local
bills. important to the individual
counties concerned. we're passed.
even in the last days Of the session
when the calendars were crowded.
Under this class would come the
bill which Mr.. West handled, Great
ing the office Of hide and animal
inspector for Cameron County. 1t
seems that the general law creating
this office for counties In the state
especially exempted Cameron County
from its provisions.
Losing sight of this. the county
| has proceeded to elect such an Cfti-
cial for a number OF years, and now,
thanks to Bascom Cox. who dis
covered the status OF the office. and
TO Mr.. West. such election is legal
and the office is officially created.
The hide and animal inspector Is
important 10 any county In Texas,
because through the work OF that
office is about the only way In which
authorities can keep up with stolen
cattle.
VALLEYITES WHO used to So

boosters because they are Just brim-

BLUE STREAK OF the Chicago
