Hoouer Pleads For
Decreased Expenses

WASHINGTON, Sept. rs. -tR}-
Faced with q two-horned problem
OF declining federal receipts and
mounting expenditures, President
Hoover pushed an attack today
against group demands upon con-
gress for new spending.
At least until 1.-THE counery Is in
better condition." the president
said, voluntary associations, bust
ness and general citizenry should
realize q need not to increase but
to decrease the expenditures OF
the federal government"
No Answer
However, his call for a halt in
what was termed the annual mass
ing up Of pressures in belsalt O.

gave no final answer as 10 'hG

borrowing to meet the deficit. A
rapidly mounting number called
for additional taxation, whether
upon incomes high and low, gen.
eral sales or luxuries.
The administrations answer Is
due within a month or six weeks.
AS an example of what he meant
by taking the spending pressure
off the coming congress, Pres
ident Hoover cited and praised the
action OF the American Legion in
voting against demands for neE
bonus legislation.
MIR. Hoover said the Legion had
"set an example to other voluntary

Economy In Government

Carrying e message of vital Importance to the peo-
: &c H. co,th TIE 1870 e ~ $3.50
in Brownsville recently.
His message, directed to the people who elect our
representatives and senators who 90 to Austin and pass
the laws under which Texas is governed. was largely a
plea for two things, no more special taxes and more
economy in government.
One observation made by Mr.. Leeman should be
remarked by every voter. In effect he said that although
every year taxes were levied which it had been claimed
would do away with other taxes, yet the total tax burden
was never less, but almost invariably more.
The high cost of government would not allow Texas
to do away with one tax just because another tax had
been levied, he claimed. Seeing more money about to
come into the till of the state, our legislatures appro-
pirate more money against the money coming in, and the
hope of reducing any particular tax or of doing away
with any particular tax, goes a glimmering away.
Reduce the expense of operating the state, he claim
ed, and demand of the state of Texas the same efficiency
demanded of other big business enterprises, and taxes
may be reduced, or at least kept at q ~standstill.
Speaking of special taxes, which seem to be a pet
project of certain legislators, the chamber of commerce
official warned against the effect the levying of these
special imposts on industry would have on the location
of new industries within the borders of the state.
Texas need new business, new capital, new payrols,
If for no other reason than to consume the surplus now
going to waste on the farms of the state" Leeman stated.
He is right. Texas cannot afford to drive new in
dustry from its doors.
We of the Valley are in a position to peculiarly ap-
preciate the truth of Mr.. Leemanis remarks. No section
of the state is more dependent upon the whims of capital
than is the Valley. Capital is needed in a new country if
the resources of that new country are to be developed
quickly.
If capital had never been willing to take a chance in
the Lower Rio Grande Valley, there would be no Valley
as we know it today.
Capital first took a chance in the construction of the
irrigation systems on which our development is based.
Capital took a chance when the st. L. B. & NJ. extended
its lines southwark to Brownsville.
Capital has invested in our bond issues and enabled
us to build fine paved highways and construct wonderful
school systems.
We must give capital a chance. Cozen it a bit, and
play up to it a bit, for capital means more to any of us
than we at first thought realize.

An excellent way of avoiding the evils of censorship
of moving pictures has been developing lately in various
parts of the country. 1t is the system by which women's
clubs, religious organizations, civic societies and similar
groups appoint representatives to examine current films
and issue lists of approved pictures.
This system is especially valuable for the children.
Many parents do not have the time to find out for them
selves which pictures are proper for their youngsters to
see. In the past they have relied-too largely-on of
fetal censorship to solve the problem for them.
But censorship is a repellent and stupid solution.
This new system is infinitely better. BY it, each group
can give its members the guidance they want-and can do
it without restricting the right of outsiders to see pictures
Of a different type.
