contracts scarce. October recover
ed from 1856 to 1895 and closed
1921 with the general market CLOS
ing at net gains Of Is 70 "a points.
Early fluctuations Were irregular.
Initial prices showed slight gains In
partial response to relatively stead
Ter Liverpool cables, but further liq-
uidation developed in sympathy
with early weakness OF wheat and
stocks. Renewed support appear
ed as fresh low levels for the move
ment we're established and obser-
vers said the market presented a
sold-out appearance following the
recent heavy liquidation.
Aside from possible modification
OF licensing provisions under the
AAA, traders we're inclined to adopt
the view that agricultural control
programs would be continued as at
present pending court test cases in
the fall.
Cotton on shipboard awaiting
clearance at the end Of the week
was estimated at $4,000 bales against
100000 last year and $4,000 two

LEONARD HAS
fine CHANCE
Valley Man Is Likely To
Become Speaker Of
Texas House
Especial 70 rhe Heraldi

McALLEN. June 1.-Representa-
tive Homer Leonard off Hidalgo
county may be a candidate for the
position Of speaker Of the Texas
house OF representatives.
This much Leonard, chairman Of
the powerful appropriations COM
mittee during the past session, ad-
mitted TO newspaper men. He was
prominently mentioned late in the
session as possible candidate for
the speakers place to succeed
Speaker Coke Stevenson OF Junction.
who Is not expected to be a candi-
date for a third term in that place.
Stevenson broke a precedent by his
election for a second consecutive
term in January.
Leonard was closely associated
with Speaker Stevenson during the
last legislature and has been given
assurance Of considerable support II
he decides to become a candidate.
1t is expected that a number OF
candidates will seek the office II
Speaker Stevenson does not run. a
matter which now seems improb-
able in Austin.
In the event Leonard decides 70
become a candidate. he expects his
greatest competition from Repre-
sentative Emmett Morse Of Hous-
ton. a power in the house repeal
faction and otherwise prominent in
legislative circles.
Insofar as can be determined,
Leonard, who is serving his fifth
year as representative from Hidal-
90 county, is the only man in the
legislature. as well as Hidalgo coun-
ty. who has eve been elected state
representative by two different poll
teal parties in Texas. He was
elected twice on the Hidalgo County
Good Government League ticket
and was elected in 1894 on the Hi
dalgo County Democratic ticket. On
his second election. Leonard's name
was written in on the ballot after
political opponents had prevented
listing Of his name under a party
banner.
Leonard has resided in McAllen
since April. 1927, when he and e.
c. Hall became managers of the
old McAllen Weekly Monitor. They
sold the newspaper business to a
publishing company which in 1884
changed the weekly into a daily
newspaper. They now operate a
commercial printing establishment
here.
Leonard holds a bachelor of
science degree in mining engineer
ing from the School OF Mines and
M liturgy of the University Of
Missouri at Rolla, Mo.

SELL A TREE

Million Population by l945'
In Valley Slogan OF
Program
Especial to n HerAId)

SAN BENITO. June IA million
individu i tree owners by 1910 and
a million population for the Valley
by l945," Is the slogan under which
G plan TO sell individual Valley cit
rus fruit trees has been put into
operation.
The plan conceived by A. o. White.
manager OF the Golden Rule Realty
Service Of San Benito, calls fer the
sale Of single grapefruit and orange
trees to families all over the United
States. Associated with him in this
enterprise will be It. w. Campbell Of
Illinois. T.. w. Lemburg Of McAllen
and d. A. King OF San Benito.
Mr.. Lemburg. former McAllen
banker, and Mr.. White have just
returned from a trip into the Middle
West where they arranged fer state
campaigns. An organization Is al
ready in operation in Kansas and
negotiations for sales service IN
Oklahoma, Missouri. Illinois. Iowa,
Wisconsin. the Dakotas and Mime
aota are nov under way.
Mr.. King, who has had 20 years
experience in citriculture in Flor
ida, AM IA years in the Valley. will
have charge Of orchard supervision.
Mr.. White believes that the plan
not only Will help sell the citrus
fruit Developments in the Valley but
will help solve the marketing prob
lem because 1t is proposed to send
the individual owners the fruit from
their trees. Only 90 per cent CT the
nations population is consuming It's
quota OF citrus fruit and IL Is be-
lieved that this percentage can be
doubled.
One l5-acre orchard has already
been Subdivided into individual plots
It Is the plan to sell all the plots
IL one orchard TO people in the same
community in the North. Then
when fruit is shipped. 1t can all be
placed In one car and shipped "a
that city BY freight. saving express
costs. Each individual al then claim
his fruit from the Car.
Producing orchards will be pur'
chased and production records OBJ
tanned. Cost Of the trees will depend
on their production record. No trees
with exceedingly large production
tsome show % boxes even during the
storm and frost years. may be sold
to cafes. stores, etc.
A charge Of 81 a tree per year will
be made for caretaking. This will in
clude all production costs including
irrigation, spraying. taxes. etc. A
small additional packing charge
will be made on each box handled.
