AUSTIN, Tex, — John White,
Slate Commissioner of Agricul-
ture, injected a bright note in
the Billie Sol Estes investigation
when he predicted, " I am con-
fident that the grain storage pic-
ture is going to come out all
right."
He and his men completed in-
ventory of grain in elevators
Estes owned at Lamesa and
Levelland. They assured receipt-
holding farmers that their grain
is there.
The State's responsibility lies
in supervision of elevators
where farmers store their grain
and then borrow money against
their warehouse receipts.
White suspended t*ie licenses
of five grain elevators in which
Estes has an interest, and sent
his men to check the contents
against warehouse receipts. Then
he announcced temporary ware-
house license suspensions on
Hale County Grain Company
and Southwestern Grain, Inc.,
both in Plainview.
W. L. Cooper of Plainview,
operator of one of Estes' large
grain storage facilities, is also j
listed as operator of these two
warehouses.
State Securities Commissioner
William M. King said his inves-
tigators are checking evidence
which would tend to show Estes
has violated the Texas Securities
Act.

MEASLES POPPING OUT
ALL OVER — A. remarkable
rapid spread of measles was not-
ed by the Texas Department of
Health last week when 99 coun-
ties reported 4,310 new cases.
More than a third of the
week's total was reported by
health offiiials in Jefferson,
Nueces, Dallas and Travis
counties. Jefferson County listed
479 new cases; Nueces County,
470; Dallas County, 282; and
Travis County, 263.
During the first quarter of
1961 the measles outbreak total-
ed only 4,441 cases. First quarter
this year a total of 32,538 out-
breaks have been reported.
Dr. Van Tipton of the Health
Department's communicable dis-
eases division said the epidemic
followed a trend of light inci-
dence one year and heavy the
next. He said enough children
seem to escape the highly-infec-
tious disease one season to
catch it the next time around.
EMPLOYMENT HITS NEW
HIGH—Unusually mild weather
caused employment in the State
to reach a record high for Feb.
Texas Employment Commission
announced 3,346,900 jobholders
that month, as compared to 3,-
330,100 in January and 3,312,30f>
for February of 1961.
Warm weather was favorable
for construction workers, agri-
cultural employees and other
outdoor workers, and helped re-
duce the number of unemployed
from 239,900 to 189.900. The
commission predicts an even
better employment picture by
mid-April, if prospective man-
power needs reported by em-
ployers hold true.
FARM BUREAU NAMES
REPRESENTATIVE — T.exas
Farm Bureau appointed Charles
H. Huff of Taylor as its new
legislative director. Farm Bu-
reau President J .H. West said
Huff will move to Austin soon
to replace Bob A. Lilly.
The new director is well-sea-
soned in Capitol contact work.
He served as full time assistant
legislative director during the
regular and special sessions of
the Legislature last year.
Huff is a graduate of Texas
A&M College. He served as as-
sociate county agent in Panola
County prior to joining the
Farm Bureau staff as field rep-
resentative in 1959.
COUNCIL DEFENDS SYS-
TEM—"How do you deal with
extremely aggressive, hostile stu-
dents?" asked Dr. Jamas A.
Turman when the Texas Youth
Council conferred with mem-
bers of the Texas Citizens Com-
mittee of the National Council
on Crime and Delinquence.
Youth Council's executive di-
rector referred to criticism from
the committee's vice chairman,
Mrs. Edmund P. Williams of
Corpus Christi, who earlier had
called the barbed wire fence
around Gatesville's Mountain
View School "The only one of
its type outside Nazi Germany."
Dr. Turman said two such se-
curity units in California are
fenced. He joined council chair-
man Robert W. Kneebone in in-
forming the committee that
Gatesville inmates include 387
boys who have committed ser-
ious crimes—45 convicted on
I murder charges.
The citizens committee propos-
ed a statewide study of com-
munity services for delinquent
children, which the Youth Coun-
cil said it would welcome. How-
ever, it already has retained a
prominent authority. Dr. Aus-
tin McCormick, to survey the
five detention institutions it
oversees.

i have finally found a safe and
permanent home. For more
than a century they have been
placed and misplaced in various
temporary quarters.
Now they are housed in the
$2,500,000 Texas State Library
and Archives Building adjacent
to the State Capitol. Prior to
the April 10 dedication research-
ers and librarians had been col-
lecting and classifying the pre-
cious documents in a quonset
hut in North Austin.
Gov. Price Daniel, whose
hobby es a Texas historian is
almost an avocation, started
urging the Legislature to ap-
prove an archives building in
1957. Appropriately he made the
dedicatory address at the open-
ing ceremony.
A special exibit will be on
display during April. It will in-
clude William B. Travis' letter
from the Alamo, the Texas Dec-
laration of Independence, five
treaties of the Republic of
Texas and other memorable
papers.
