Dan:* administration as "tired"
und "lacking vigor". Daniel
, aim ba. k with a recital of his
five-year accomplishments in
education, industrialization and
other fields.
Will Wilson's approach wa-
that Daniei's entry collapsed
th< Connally bandwagon by
splitting Vic. Pres. Lyndon
Johnson's organization, and
that the only way to get an
uncontrolled candidate was to
elect Wilson.
Candidates got in more pun-
ches in answering tough Ques-
tions posed by nine newsmen.
All of Daniel's opponents made
the l ov« n or's unprecedented
fou -term try a central issue.
In tin cours< of questions, Dan-
iel came out for a two-term
, limit, but with four-year terms
f"i" governor instead of the
present two.
FR1 KND1.KSS INSECT — A
big hatted crowd of ranchers
gathered at an Austin hotel to
'get more fact- on the stock-
man's dream the elimination
! of the -erewworm.
There wa- no one there to
defend the insect.
Rancher.- learned from Flori-
dans how that <tatc- was swept
free of this ct-lly scourge by
a dramatic program. Florida
ranchers covered the state with
steiile male screwworm flies
thus wasting the female flies'
-ingle mating period. First air-
plane distribution of flies in
South T< xa- -tarted the day
•f the Austin meeting.
Texas stockmen are raising
$3,000,000 by voluntary contri
hutions to match an equal a-
mount of Federal money put
up by the U. S Department of
Agriculture. The .-crew worms
co.-t Southw.1 sti ri ranchers an
estimated £40'0,000 a year in
losses.

Wheatley said hi is neither
for nor against racing, but be-
lieve- "tax profits from horse
racing could do much to aid
the old people and the children
of Texas."
Gubernatorial candidates are
interested in regulating another
kind of race. They think limi-
tations should be set on the
number of times a governor
can run for re-election.
Marshall Formby based hi.-
objections to the present lack
of limits on the fact that most
state projects are operated by
commissions w h o - e members
an appointed by tni governor
on a rotating basis. Formby
figures ihat by the end of a
second term, u two-time gover-
nor ha- made every -tate com-
mission appointment and it's
time for him to take a rest.
John Connally seconded the
charge of commission domina
tion, and said that by the end
of a third term, every one of
the more than 800 commission-
ers have been appointed by a
three-time governor. He pro-
mised that he would a.-k the
Legislature to limit a govern-
nor's tenure to two terms if
he's elected.
