Allred said the other day he believed the upcoming session of the 44th legislature would be harmonious. "I don't know what will happen, but there is nothing in sight which should cause trouble," he said. Under the law, the legislature could adjourn before expiration of the authorized four-months session, but no one thinks it will.

The governor recently cited as an example of the efficiency of the state bureau of identification its quick checkup on a convict. He was about to grant a parole to a Chicago youth, but before.sign- ing the papers asked the bureau to look into the record, merely giving the convict's prison number. Within five minutes the governor was Informed the youth had been arrested In Toledo, Ohio, in 1931 and charged with transporting a stolen automobile. A query to Toledo brought the information the convict had been placed on probation for 18 months. The state board of pardons and paroles had made no recommendation in tills instance, but Allred suggested it contact the bureau in future before acting on clemencies.

Rep. Fred Felty, 28, new member of the House, was chosen by a committee as the outstanding civic- minded citizen of San Antonio under 35 years of age. Pclty received the honor for work as a vice president of the San Antonio Junior chamber commerce and other civic activities.

HACKNEY FOR POLICE CHIEF Seeks Regular Elective 6 TO THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY OP ABILENE: In making this my formal announcement as candidate for the office of chief of police, I am outlining a brief History of my life for the enlightenment of those who do not know me and are not informed as to my private and public life. I was born at Gatesville, Texas, June 3rd, 1896, where I resided until I was 13 years ot age. In that year my father and mother both died, and I was left to make my own way in the world. I earned a living by working on farms and ranches until I was 18 years of age, at which time I secured employment with the Texas Southeastern Railroad.

I later worked for the southern Pine Lumber company, in Angelina county, during which time I also served as deputy sheriff of that county. I came to Abilene in 1925, a stranger in a strange city. In November, 1925, I was given a place with the police department as a patrolman, working as such continuously until February, 1930, when I was promoted to the rank of assistant chief under Chief W. B. Sibley, which position I held until January 1st, this year, when I was appointed your chief of police by the mayor, and city commission to fill out the unexpired term of Chief Sibley.

In offering myself a candidate I do so with the hope that the people will take into consideration my experience as an officer, and my experience as a member of the Abilenian Observes 2 Anniversaries today; 4 Generations Are Expected Tills is a double anniversary for T. T. Duncan, 1190 Poplar street; and If the weather does not intervene he will hold a family reunion in celebration.

If the out-of-town members of the family come, there will police department In the capacity of patrolman, together with six years' experience as assistant chief of police.

I have a wife four children, and am glad of the educational- advantages, and the moral Influences of the city of Abilene, which have so much to do with the formation of character. I candidly believe that the police department of Abilene is one of the best in Texas, and if elected It shall be my earnest endeavor to at alt times seek, if possible, to make It a better department. In conclusion, I want to say that this Is the first time I have ever been a candidate for an elective office, and if you honor me by electing me your chief of police, I make you the promise that I will honestly and industriously endeavor to make, for you a good servant, and to so conduct myself both in private and public life in such a way that you will never have cause to regret having favored me with your votes. I earnestly solicit your vote and influence, Respectfully, T. A.
