The old question of whether we are to concentrate immediate recovery and getting people back woik or let long-terrr. come at the risk of blocking re-employment is again agitating Washington.

Criminal liability is imposed on all union officials, members of strike committees and individual ho take pail in an illegal strike. 5.

The takes the position that the persons manipulating tried to make a joke of the and the voters, and the majority of the committeemen were frankly about it. Few Issues Developed I Ernost Th mpson this week took cognizance, during a West Texas waking tour, of the promptness with which MeCiaw, his leading opponent, has adopted the platform and uies which Thompson na ponced, in the Capital admit, but i declared that he announced hi sui port not itform first, and delivered his op- lcgislative action in that tuning addre at Waco fir.t.

Then, charged, McCraw adopted pre form virtually word word, and "made an opening speech so irly like mine that when I listened on the radio, I thought I was hearing myself on injected a real and new issue, when he came out tor liberaii the old pension law, to extent of eliminating the question of whether an old age pension applicant children or other relatives able to support him or her, a a tost for eligibility.

Relative position of these two leading candidates appeared, jw corrting to best reports here, be little changed during the week. Mr Craw was generally believed still in first place with Thompson forging steadily forward, and the Thomps organization functioning smoothly and effectively, under excellent timing Convention In Port Arthur, amid a flock of political candidates and their workers and press agents which almost outnumbered the delegates, the Texas Press Association ncluded a successful annual convention bv electing Di'skin Wells, brilliant young publisher of the Wellington pro ident, Walter Buckner, of the San Marcos Record, was named vice president, and Uncle Ben Harigel, of LaG range, and Sam Ilarben. of Richardson, were renamed treasurer and secretary, respectively.
