Texas and the "New DeaI'
To the Editor of The Washing
ton Times:
Under the Roosevelt New Deal
which is trying to bring back
prosperity" by preventing pro-
duction of wealth. Texans have
been robbed of their right, guar
anteed in their own State Con-
stitution, freely to produce, re-
fine and market their own Pc
troleum oil and its by-products.
Under the Roosevelt New
Deal. Texans have been robbed
of their right freely to plant.
gather and market the crops for
which their lands are best
adapted.
Under the Roosevelt New
Deal, Texans, hitherto free men
and women, have been reduced
to the status of wards Of the
Federal Government.
Under the Roosevelt New
Deal, at least 100000 men and
women have been robbed of the
jobs they would have held if
Texas land owners had not been
lawlessly denied their right
freely to produce, refine and
market their oil.
Under the Roosevelt New
Deal, over 100000 Texas farm
families normally employed
raising cotton have been robbed
of that employment. Unable to
find other jobs, most of them
are now paupers on public
charity. Other scores of thou.
sands of families normally de.
pendent on work in processing,
handling and shipping cotton
and its by-products, have been
robbed of their employment.
Hundreds of Texas businesses
of every kind have been robbed
of the reasonable prosperity
they would have enjoyed if the
people of Texas had been per-
mitted freely to develop and
market their great natural re-
sources.
Texas, more than any other
State, has been betrayed and
plundered by the Roosevelt
New Deal. New Deal charity"
extended to Texas is insult
added to injury.
If Texas does not go Repub-
lican in 1886, as a new declara'
tion of independence, the hold
ing of a centennial in that
year, to celebrate the original
declaration of independence
from Mexico, will be hollow
mockery. FRANK PUTNAM.

ton certainly should be COM
mended for passing that reso-
luton prohibiting teachers who
drink intoxicating liquors from
teaching the children in our
public schools. as those teach

this time, when the public

PRESIDENT IS BUSY.
IN RAILROAD HOME.
Keeps in Touch With Wash

ON Train.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
WORCESTER, Mass, June I'm
his railroad yard home at Worcester,
President Roosevelt looked over re-
ports from the Capital today and
then prepared a talk for the private
school of Groton to be delivered to-
night.
Accompanied by Mrs. Roosevelt, the
President relaxed in complete COM
fort last night in this odd White
House headquarters. 1t is perhaps
the first time in history that the
President has kept station for two
days in railroad yard.
So far as public affairs are con-
cetned, the President is keeping in
constant touch with Washington by
a specially attached telephone on his
car, but there is no indication that
he is concerned over conditions at
the Capital After dispatching his
message on the war debts, he gave
himself over last night and today to
complete freedom. Crowds stood out
side the fences marking the railroad
yard. The President retired early
last night. He was accompanied
back here by his six feet four inches
youngest son, John, with diploma
from Groton. The family turned
back today for the fiftieth annivers-
airy of the founding Of Groton.
Late tomorrow night after the
school exercises the President and
his family reboard this temporary
White House in the railroad yards
and travel to the home at Hyde Park
for Sunday He will leave late to-
morrow night to return to Washing
ton to aid in the closing drive of
Congress.

the greatest prosperity they have
known since 1929. If the price holds
in the neighborhood of dollar the
gros income will exceed that from
the bumper yield of 1881 when Texas

bushels and marketed 1t for less than
40 cents.
Grain men of Oklahoma are ex-
pecting a near-normal crop of between

Harvest in Oklahoma will be in
full swing within three weeks. On
the south plains of Texas it will be-
gin before June 10, and the harvest

The Panhandle cage which still
