Kingsville And
Bishop Ask For
Highway Route
Especial 20 The HeraluJ

kINCSVILLE. April 26.-The
KlngSville Chamber of Commerce
and representatives of the business
interests OF Bishop Friday issued the
following statement for the purpose
Of clarifying press dispatches pub
liShed under Corpus Christi date
line. which. according to the Kings
vile and Bishop people, are grossly
misleading.
The people OF our communities
are doing nothing to impede the
construction Of the Kennedy county
read. In fact. County Judge Wilson,
one OF our leaders In Kleberg coun-
ty, personally secured the deed TO
the last piece Of designated roadway
in Kennedy county. Our interest is
solely In seeing that this national
highway passes through the Bishop
section. n OF the finest farming
communities In Texas, and through
KNIT vile. seat q the Texas COL
lege OF Arts and Industries. the only
state supported institution Of high
or learning in south Texas. instead
q running through a barren and
desolate stretch Of approximately
40 miles. where II viii not pass a
single human habitation. The Kle-
bergs and other ranch interests have
no influence Of our position In this
matter.
wv. M. Newyland. highway direc-
tor for Corpus Christi, made the
statement TO our representatives
that the only reason Corpus Christi
was demanding the so-called direct
route from Chapman ranch to Sa-
rita was so that the tourist COM
ing from the Valley would find no
connecting road that led TO San An
tonic. The designation by way Of
Bishop was planned by citizens Of
Bishop and Kingsville after II was
known to them that Neyland was
planning to route both Highways n
and SO through the east end Of Kle-
btrg county missing two communi-
ties. A conference between Neyland
ma Roy Cliff. Nueces county clerk
representing Corpus Christi, and
County Judge Wilson and q chamber
OF commerce committee represent
ing our communities was held ct
Corpus Christi Tuesday, April l6 on
aviation OF Neyland.
The Nueces county highway COM
mittee was then notified by cur
eroup that we would not concur in
the Chapman to Sarita designa-
tion and would Immediately ask that
the highway commission designate
the road via Bishop. The designs
ton as requested by us was made by
the commission in open meeting On
Friday. April 10 with all three COM
miSsioners present and voting un-
animously for the Bishop route.
we believe the Highway Commits
sion will agree with us in the state
ment that the Kennedy county prof.
ect Is In no Wv affected w the
route the road Nlay take north Of
Sarita. although a statement TO that
effect has been made by Corpus
Christi representatives and publish
ed throughout the state In an evi-
dent effort to secure support from

relative merits Of the two routes
through Nueces and Kleberg counties
are not known"

This condition prevails, the re-

displayed by distributive totals that

more than a flash. the encouraging
recovery OF wholesale markets. and
the maintenance Of industrial OPP
erations in most divisions at pre-.
vious levels"
The review continued: Where a
slower pace Of Improvement has
been indicated. the majority of the
reports trace Ii to unreasonable
weather O to delays in legislation,
which have fostered hesitation.
Final earnings statements for
the first quarter reveal a Substan-
tial rise over the figure for the
comparative three months Of 1884.

Retail sales for the Easter shop

per cent above the 1884 level.

review stated. Consumer buying
broadened sufficiently during the
week to lift the total Of retail sales
for the country from 8 TO as much

CENTURY OF PROGRESS

THE new social security law is a reflection
of the greatest single change that has come
upon the, American people in all their history
To understand the change you need only
try to imagine such a bill having been passed a
century ago.
At that time, this country probably came
closer to the kind of social order visioned by
the prophets OF the revolutionary period than
any other land on earth. 1t was a country of
small propretors-sman farmers. small bust
ness men. small manufacturers small traders
Political independence had been won in the
war with Britain; economic independence, or
something closely approaching it, had devel-
oped hand IN hand with it.
There was not large wage-earning class.
The average American of those days was a
farmer, master of his own acres and proprietor
of plant which provided him with practically
all OF his food and most of his clothing year
in and year out.
The towns were relatively small, and they
were full of small shops. small stores. small
businesses. Hardly any one went out and got
job with the idea that he would be job
holder all his life: the job was a makeshift,
time-filler until the moment when he could
start some undertaking of his own.
Under such conditions a social security bill
like the one Just signed by President Roosevelt
would have been completely useless. 1t simply
was not needed, nor could any one in the
United States of that day have imagined that
it ever would be needed
In the long run, under those conditions, a
man sank or swan by his own efforts If we
had energy and even a halfway decent break
in luck. he need not fear the poorhouse or the
breadline.
It is almost a waste of breath to remark
that the America of 1885 is not in the least like
the America OF a century ago; or it would be
wasted. if some people did not still cling to the
altitude of 1885 in appraising social legislation
like the security bill
The individual no longer has his old eco
nomic independence. Our great cities contain
millions upon millions of people who and
always will be wage-earners. With the best
will IN the world they can not be anything
else. And no matter how industrious frugal
and ambitious they may be- depression can
at any time sweep their jobs out from under
