"We have no problems that cannot be solved'by earnest effort and careful consideration en the part of the people," Is the way Texas' new governc-r feels.

In his Inaugural address Friday he declared every Texan should support the President in defense of American ideals, standards and fundamental principles, Urges Support for FDR "Our great President shows determination to resist every force of aggression and conquest which threatens the liberties we enjoy." he asserted. "Texas is a vital part of this aroused nation. "It Is Incumbent on every citizen ct Texas to support our commancl- er-in-chief In the defense of our ideals, our standards of life and a a principles." 'None wants war but If It comes, the valor of Texans can be depended upon to match that of their fathers In past glorious pages of Texas history, he said. The new governor voiced fervent hope that his -administration would be characterized by honesty and ef- cstimated at $2,000,000.

rrogtnm Welt Manx He pointed to a six-plank program for the state which he had proposed when inaugurated lieutenant-governor for the second time last January, said had been largely accomplished, but declared that because of that accomplishment legislation would not become stagnant. "We will continue to be alert and mindful of the necessities of a frcwinjr and progressive population." he said. "Whatever is necessary for the common good will be undertaken with collective entity and a genuine desire to accomplish the greatest good for the greatest number." spoke of the importance of obeying laws and enforcing 'laws, contrasted the Amcrlc-an government cf laws wUh Kovcrnmcnts oT men as exemplified under Hitler and Mussolini and referred, to ancient democracies which "were cle- itroycd when the soeds of their, do- structlon sprouted in the minds of the people and reached maturity in the avarlcs of the Individual." Wishes Pappy Well At the outset he extended best wishes to Senator W. Lee O'DanicI other predecessors in the governorship, observlnK that all had rendered distinguished service to the state. Stevenson had previously pushed through a bill making it Illegal to transport wolves from one county to another.

This prevented wolf-hunters from bringing the animals into counties where bounties were being paid. Coke Stevenson attended grand opera for the first time in his life In 1940. He said Mrs. Stevenson "induced" him. "1 figured a fellow ought to go once," he explained, "so I consented." Then he confessed: "I didn't have a dress suit.

I had io go my regular clothes," Coke Stevenson will be the seventh lieutenant governor to advance to the office of governor. Others were J. W. Henderson, governor In 1853; H. R.

Runnels, 1857-59; F. R. Lubbocfc, 1851-63; R. B. Hubbard, 1876-1879: Joseph D.

Sayers 1899-1903 and W. P. Hobby, 1917-1921. Stevenson was the only man who ever served two consecutive terms as speaker of the House. He presided over the 43rd House in 1933 and the 44th in 1935.

M. D. K. Taylor, physician and larmer of Cass and Marlon counties, was speaker three times, but no two of his terms were consecutive. Taylor presided over the 8th House in 1859, the 10th House in 1863 and tlic 13th House in 1873, Taylor served in the Texas Legislature 24 years.

Before coming to Texas in 1847, he had served in the Alabama House of Representatives. John H. Cochran also served twice as speaker, of the 16th House In 187S and the 23rd House in 1893. Jinx Office Extending back to 1845, when Texas was admitted to the union, the lieutenant governorship of the state has with few exceptions marked the political demise of its Incumbents in Lone- Star 'State politics, leading politicians to term it the jinx office of state government, Political chronology, of the state substantiates the prevalent belief among pollticos that, except on rare occasions, the No. 2 state position Is a death trap for aspiring politicians.

i Beat Tradition Last lieutenant governor to buck this perverse political tradition was Edgar E. Witt of Waco, who smashed a large field of opponents to win his post in 1930 and cinched a second term without opposition, polling more than 1,000,000 votes. The gubernatorial campaign of 1934 witnessed him fifth in a race which gave youthful, vigorous Attorney General James V. Allrcd the Democratic nomination. In 1930 Dallas' Barry Miller dared the 11-man gubernatorial meice following completion of an unprecedented third term as lieutenant governor.
