HOUSTON CANISTER SUSPECT Slain
IN OUR
VALLEY

SOME HONEST TO goodness
common sense is being disseminated.
And II. B. Galbraith OF Browns
vile Is doing It.
AT these meetings which are be-
ing held over Cameron county.
And let 1t be understood tina:
practically everything the major may
say with justice about Cameron
county can be said about nearly
every other county in the state Of
Texas.
He talks about the 81 taxing
agencies in Cameron county alone.
Suggests that that duplicate and
triplicate and 20 on each others
work.
While the taxpayer pays the bill.
And he is Just as right as he can
be.
Believe The Brownsville Herald
some time back on Its editorial page
mentioned the same thing.
Speaking then. the Herald was, Of
the duplication Of work and Of CON-
mon interest Of our water improve
ment districts.
Mai. Galbraith carries the matter
further to a logical conclusion.
II he is wrong about everything
suflse he claims, he Is right about
Make this suggestion.
These meetings OF taxpayers are
hearing matters OF Importance dis
cussed.
OF vital Importance.
You might agree with all that Is
said. -.
And on the other hand, you nigh.
disagree.
But-as a citizen of Cameron
county It would be an education 10
you to listen in and get n trend
of the times.
And If. perchance, you are a citi-
zen OF Hidalgo county, the same
holds true.
Both counties have the same
problems.
Hidalgo's may be a little o
complicated than Cameron'S. IL
Che same fundamental conditions
exist.
Guarantee you this-you will be
shocked TO hear what 1t is costing
and has cost the taxpayers who have
happened to be so unfortunate as
to let their taxes 90 delinquent.
Another system OF collecting pub
uc funds that is wrong.
Find out about these things.
Here's your chance.
HALF A BILLION dollars is quite
a few, thank youi
Even when spread out over a
country as large as the United States.
That much money is important
money when applied to the loosen
ing of credits.
It will loosen a whole lot Of credits.
Enable a whole lot of banks TO
have additional funds for the use G!
legitimate enterprise.
And the best part of IL all is hat
by the first OF a week at the latest
there will be ~functioning an orgaili-
cation with that much money at its
disposal.
For those very purposes.
President Hoover conceived the
idea.
Bankers have put in with him n
carrying 1t out.
Statesmen. irrespective OF party
affiliations, have voiced their ap-
prevail.
It's a good old world, after all.
And will be a better world.
And a better. more cheerful u. :.
thanks TO the constructive work OF
our president.
JOHN HANSON POST OF the
American Legion will tell the world
when Armistice Day rolls around.
Plans for the biggest and best
celebration of this holida. are In
process OF formulation.
It's a good day TO celebrate. this
ArmiStice Day.
II is one national holiday that
>means something to every n of
personally. because we still have
personal contact with the
events leading TO its observance.
Civic organizations, the 18th Cav
airy, public and parochial schools.
all are joining with the American
Legion to give Brownsville a real
holiday.
Make your plans now.
For wednesday, November IL.
1t will be a good day to spend in
Brownsville.
And honest, now. won't an all
day celebration, with care thrown
10 the four winds, be kind Of good
for us all.
We think so.
AMONG OTHER THINGS. we
would say that Texas Is about TO
become budget conscious.
Legislature probably did not fig
ure 1t that way.
But the chief good resulting from
tn new law requiring all these
budget hearings is the education
which we Of the dear public are
getting.
About our own rather sorely
neglected business.
About which we have been Woe
fully ignorant.
Wei know more about (. s busi-
ness Of ours in the future.
