THE BAYTOWN SUN. FRIDAY, JULY 7, Sun Slants Today's Bible Verse He, that being often reproved liard- esih his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that -without remedy. Proverbs 29:1. By Fried Harhnan KOT SO BAD OFF overgrown, worn, out or B23KG West Texas Approves State Representative Preston Smith, of who is seeking to be elected lieutenant, governor, certainly won't fail in his ambition if the folks. around Ltibfaock and that area of the state have anything 1 to sav about it.

Seldom does the mail arrive in Baytown bat what comes a letter from some friend of a Eaytonian urging support for Preston Smith. Today's mail brought a letter from Charles A. Guy, publisher of the Lubbock Mom- ing Avalanche and Evening- Journal, in sax's this: "For the past sis years, Mr, Smith has been the finest state representative this area has ever had. As a citizen, I feel I owe any support I can give Mr. Smith in return for.

the very fine public service he has rendered this district. In short, I believe I owe him a debt of gratitude for his ceasless ef- eorts in behalf of good, honest government. "I known Mr. Smith since he worked his way through college I know him to be a man who is faithful to a trust: whose principles are of the highest; whose integrity cannot be and is not questioned. "Unlike many others in public life, Mr.

Smith is not satisfied to give mere lip service, to sound business practices in government. He actually votes and works to that end. If we who are always claiming that we want 'sound, decent, energetic, honest, sensible businessmen in public really mean what we say, we have the 'opportunity' in Preston Smith's candidacy for lieutenant Governor to get just that." That's what tMs Loibbock publisher thfrVks of Preston Smith, who has represented an eight-county district in the house at Austin for the past years. It's a fine endorsement for you to consider, if a West Texan -would be acceptable as yotir No. 2 state official jea.X£Ltiii an.

overgrown, worn, out or outworn sports editor of yesteryear, I used to more or less feel sorry for the of Baytown. I used to ferf that the people of this fee cifcr deserved something better as editor of their hometown paper they are getting. Bat I feel better about it now, a2te reading that Harry Ferguson is now United Press Foreign Kews BeUior. Harry used to be sports editor of United Press, back in the days when George Kirksey, publisher of the eevr Houston blue book, was a sports writer. I ciaim I know as much about putting- out a paper in Bayiowa as Harry Ferguson knows about foreign news.

If the people of the country can pat up -with Ferguson, I don't see why the people of Baytown can't pat iip with me a little longer. HOW 3XAX CAX HALT OPPOXEST I JUST FOUND out that Mayor C. L. Dacsis by profession is a signpainter, and that causes me to make this suggestion to County Commissioner Hugh Mav as he campaigns for re-election for a fifth terra. He should contrxet with JDacus to paint his signs him.

He could keep Daciis so busy painting signs between now and election cay, be (Dueus) wouldn't have time to campaign. Thus would have to worry only about his other two opponents. Daces mixed a little politics his singoainting and got elected inayor of Jaeinio City. New he -wants to stir the mixture a little thicker and get elected to a county office. He may have won, too, until I revealed here how Hugh can puH the election cot of the fire.

THAXES TO TH3 BAYTOWN Sun had one of its finest July 4 picnics this year at the Bumet Bay retreat of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Higginbotham. Their place Is next to the last ore on Bnmet Bay (the Kelson Longneckers live to the last one), and they have in Little Shamrock a brick barbecue room and bay house that would be the envy of everybody in.Baytown if they knew more about it Sun is grateful to the Higginbothams for the "borry" of their fine spot for our picnic. We are grateful too that Floyd could find time from his July 4 sleeping to drop by and pay' ua a visit I.

And this is one time Texas isn't bragging. Read for yourself here: "Industrially, our big neighbor to the south, Texas, has grown out of the infant stage into a robust young, giant in the last ten years. "Oklahoma may wish to give attention to the report of the.Tesas employment'com- mission, and strive hopefully to improve its industriallot. "The report-covers only those industrial establishments employing eight or more workers.

"In 1940 Texas had 9724 industries with 625,711 workers. At the beginning of 1950 Texas had 30,138 businesses that were employing 1,164,500 increase of 78.4 percent in ten years. "The sun is shining on industrial Oklahoma and it gets a little brighter each year, but there is still room for more brightness in the picture. "Oklahoma needs to do some of the things Texas has things which attract industry. Among them these: remedy the state income tax on corporations and individual workers alike; this state's insurance rates under the workman's compensation are double those in Texas; here, the law prohibits insurance companies from reinvesting part of, their premiums in new -construction in the state, while Texas law requires it." responsible for it?
