Monday the State Department of Public Safety was maintaining communications with its own short wave radio and teletype system.

The avowed fear of a major tax proposal riding into law as an amendment on a successful minor tax measure caused committee members to kill one revenue bill and shunt another to a subcommittee 7 or further consideration. A much-amended bill to tax pool halls got favorable consideration. A bill by Representative Isom P. Hydrick of Marshall to levy a one-cent tax on each 10 cents of admission charge to hotel dine and dance rooms came back from a subcommittee with an unfavorable report. "It might open up the omnibus tax bill," said Representative Tom Martin of Fredericksburg, subcommittee chairman.

Hydrick asked for another public hearing but Chairman Frank Svadlenak of Thrall overruled him. Mortuary MRS. C. A. JOHVaON Mrs.

"Having had 14 years of prohibition and 14 years of repeal, it is time we let the people make their own appraisal," Dr, McKenzie declared. "We're not asking you if you drink or not, -we're asking the Legislature if it believes in the principles of democracy enough to let the voters an opinion on this controversial Emmett Morse, attorney for the liquor dealers association, noted that when Texas went dry in 1919 intervention.

"But Tom Clark oh. well, he organized the machine he and Bill McCraw," Westerfeld was saying when Sen. Hardeman jumped angrily to his his feet. Toint of Order "Mr. Chairman!" Hardeman protested.

"I raise the. point of order the gentleman is hot speaking on the bill. I don't care about his tales of fraud, or the Attorney General or any of that Westerfeld was advised to keep on the bill, but a few seconds later he resumed his charges, Hardeman raised the same point of order, and this time the committee chair man, W. R. Cousins told the Dallas man his time had expired.

Mrs. Irene Davis of Houston, a precinct chairman and member of the State Democratic Committee, insisted the amount of "spying" on voters is negligible. For one thing, she said, officials are too busy on election days to match ballots to poll lists and inspect the contents. Calvert cited action by a subcommittee and by the state committee in opposing the Secret Bal-lot Bill. "This bill does more evil than good," the party chairman insisted.

wish we could have a secret ballot but I don't want it at the exepnse of honest elections." He called the measure "a perfect setup for anybody who wants to perpetrate fraud." Bill of Goods Calvert- thought the gum label proposal "an improvement but still nqt satisfactory." He summed up his testimony: "I think the ladies got sold on a bill of goods!" Kilman on the other hand reported on the 46 states which have some form of secret ballot, and then he questioned, referring to the discussion of fraud, "Is not the great state of Texas as honest as these 46?" Kilman referred also to Calvert's statement at Hillsboro when the party chairman declared, "The oil industry is in complete control of the state government and of state politics." Kilman said he could not agre with the connotation that the oil industry controls the executive branch, the judiciary and the Legislature; but, he continued, the statement, following Calvert's letter, "reassured" the League of Women Voters. They felt, he said, that Calvert would be for a bill "that would loosen that control" if indeed it should exist. "But lo and behold, next thing they heard was a public statement opposing the Secret Ballot Bill because, the chairman said, it would promote fraud." Kilday Asks Transfer Of Arsenal to UT WASHINGTON, Ajril 7. (F) Legislation authorizing transfer of the San Antonio (Texas) Arsenal to the University of Texas for use as a merdical school was introduced in the House Monday by Representative Kilday The measure would direct 'the Secretary of War to turn over the land and buildings to the regents of the University of Texas.

Since repeal, the State has lost $7,074,680 from the operation of illicit stills mainly in dry counties, added Homer Leonard, counsel for the brewers. "Bootleggers are rampant but not in Travis County or Washington County." Leonard stated. 'They run rampant in counties where some peoole hope to change the history of the world and the nature of mankind through prohibition."

Fresent Opposition Tax advocates who contend the State must find new revenue to pay the school bills presented the main opposition to John Ford's resolution for sine die adjournment. "Don't be misled' because the third house, wants us to quit," cautioned Representative Woodrow Bean. Representative F. G.

Swanson declared that to "sine die" before appropriation bills had been laid out did not make horse sense or common sense. Ford said Representative Claud Gilmer, appropriations committee chairman, assured him the appropriation bills will be out within a week A motion to postpone the resolution until May 6 was tabled 68 to 53. then the resolution tabled 95 to 31. Previously Amended Svadlenak's bill making labor responsible for damages was amended to limit liability to strikes and picketing in violation of a contract. The bill originally held unions responsible for damages from strikes or picket ing the legality to be determined by the courts.

The bill was finally passed 73 to 45. Travis County representatives splitting their vote. Representative Obie Jones voted against the bill and Representative Pearce Johnson, for. Mrs, Colson's lateral road bill was fought by the city representatives whose areas would, lose under the proposed formula of allocating the surplus from the county and road district highway fund. The bill was engrossed 81 to 41 but lacked the two-thirds vote necessary to suspend the dules for final passage.

It will be pending on third reading Tuesday. An amendment to the bill earmarked the half of the surplus going to the Highway Department for a special farm highway fund. The -other half of the surplus, amounting to $3,600,000 in 1946, would be divided among the counties on the basis of area, rural population and lateral road mileage. The money is now divided on the basis of total population, motor vehicle registrations, area and lateral road mileage. 1 1 tj Proof 62'i Groin Neutral Spirits The Br The Austin American Capitol Staff A Senate committee Monday night bandaged the Secret Ballot Bill in gummed paper and sent it out to an uncertain future.

The bill, considerably altered in appearance, cleared the panel after a piquant hearing in which: 1) A newspaper editor squared off against Bob Calvert, chairman of the State Democratic Executive Committee, (2) Calvert "told the Texas League of Women Voters they had "got sold on a bill of goods," and a former state senator was instructed to sit down after his unflattering reference to a fellow townsman. US Attorney General Tom Clark. In between these highlights, a group of election officials, including the Travis County Democratic chairman. J. M.

Patterson, and Jerome Sneed of Austin, protested that the bill introduced by the Austin senator, James A. Stanford, was an invitation to fraud. Stanford replied, on rebuttal time, that the main purpose of the legislation was not to do away with fraud but to institute secret elections. Amendment Adopted Stanford's bill called for eliminating the on the back of Texas election ballots, the means by which a vote can be matched to the voter's name opposite he same number on the poll list. But the committee (privileges and elections) adopted an amendment' by Senator Dorsey Hardeman of San Angelo to paste a gummed label over the idrntifying number on the ballot- label could be removed only in case of election contest.

Hardeman said. His amendment survived. 4-3, an attempt to kill it, and then was adopted, 6-1. The bill was then voted out by voice vote. The newspaper editor was Ed Kilman of Houston, who said he was "related to the Secret Ballot Bill" by marriage." His wie is legislative chairman of the League of Women Voters, one of the organizations supporting the measure.

Kilman read from a letter which Calvert told Mrs. Kilman, "This letter is simply to assure you I am for it," and went on to declare he would work for a secret ballot bill. Later, Calvert said he still was for a secret ballot but had decided against supporting this particular bill. Charge Denied He denied Kilman's charge that his decision was influenced by a state Democratic committeeman from Houston who. Kilman declared, has fought the Democratic ticket "in three national cam pa its us I know of" "This is all the more strange." Kilman added, "because the chairman (Calvert) has been known as an ardent New Dealer." The former senator who was told to sit down was Claude Westerfeld of Dallas, who, as first opponent speaker, launched into fiery assertions of electoral fraud in Dallas, Houston and San Antonio.

Dallas and San Antonio use voting machines, which cast secret ballot Westerfeld called them "the most damable thing on civilization."
