Upholds Condemnation Of
Social Mingling Of Races
Austin, Tex., July 8.—Governor
vioody today approved in part and
iisapproved in part the concurrent
•esolution passed by the Texas leg
slature condemning Mrs. Herbert
Hoover, wife of the President of the
United States-, for entertaining the
wife of a negro congressman at a
tvhite house tea.
"Any part of this resolution which
nay be reasonably construed as a
personal criticism of the wife of the
president of t lie United States of
America docs not have my approv
al and X decline to have any part
in it,” he said in a statement filed
in the document department of the
secretary of state's office.
Referring to a section of the reso
lution which reminded southern
democrats who voted for the re
publican presidential nominee that,
they had been cautioned just such
incident*! as the one condemned
might happen, the governor said:
• Recognizing the right of every
citizen to vote his own convictions,
T do not assert the right to official
ly upbraid any because they exer
cise the liberty to hold and vote
views different from mine, nor do
I approve any attempt at official
criticism of any citizen's vote.”
The resolution had his "hearty
approval” insofar as "it condemns
customs that bring the two races
into contact, upon the same social
plane,” he stated.
"Any mingling of the races upon
a basis of social equality is intoler

Thinks Cleveland Can Do
Without Farm Demonstrator
With r««y Communlration And
Agriculture Taught In Public
Schools.
To Editor of The Star:
In reference to the resignation of
our county farm demonstrator, 1
wish to make a few statements
which I would appreciate your
printing In a near issue of your
paper.
Let me state in the beglflnlng
that my remarks are not intended
with any reflection upon the gen
eral idea of agricultural enlighten
ment, or upon the work that has
been done in Cleveland county
through the demonstrator's or
home extension agent's offices.
There has been a time when the
office of either of these agents was
an asset to a county. When means
of communication between the
farming people and the sources of
information at Raleigh and Wash
ington were not as frequent and
convenient as they are today, and
when the rural schools were still
functioning at a very low rate of
progress, the county agents filled a
place that could not otherwise be
taken care of.
The improvement between our
state and national departments and
the private citizen places the entire
research work of these agencies
within easy reach of the farmer.
Any information compiled by the
government is published in bulletin
form and awaits distribution for the
asking.
ine mam reason, nowever. why
the offices of farm agent and home
extension agents are to be rendered
Ineffective in a progressive county
Is the fact that the people in rural
sections are fast coming to the
point of having agriculture, as a
scientific subject, taught in the
public schools.
It Is an indisputable fact that a
youthful mind can bring home and
present logical reasoning and in
formation much better than can
one outside of the family. The vo
cational work in the rural schools
is rapidly expanding, and in^ our
own county It has almost expanded
to the point where we have two
overlapping means of instruction,
both of which are taking a portion
of the taxpayers money.
The vocational instructor In the
public schools receives the same
aid, both as to information and fi
nancial assistance that the farm
and extension agents receive.
In like manner the home exten
sion work In the county is very
rapidly being absorbed by the home
economics department in the rural
schools. instructor or agent, re
gardless of educational qualifica
tions. can present a new fact to a
housekeeper, with as much results
as can a daughter of the bouse.
I believe It would be a distinct
forward step and in keeping with
the agricultural progress of Cleve
land county, if our county commis
sioners lend their aid to the teach
ing of agriculture and home econo
mics in all the rural schools instead
of maintaining a central office in
the county seat which cannot pos
sibly have the direct contact that
results from teaching these subjects
to the youthful mind of the school
pupil.
in further reference to the rhral
schools, I am looking forward to the
time when we can make them a
direct agency for the conservation
of human life through the practical
teaching of health and disease pre
ventatives. A school equipped with
health demonstration facilities and
rendering practical assistance to
children will accomplish a need, the
value of which could not be valued
in money.
We have made rapid progress In
all the material things of this
county. Why not make it one of the
pioneer counties to enccrtirage the
maximum of practical teaching in
the schools to the children who
must later h* the citizens of the
county?
