Whereas, to our certain know.ed^e nnd belief there are hundreds of
thousands of our fellow citizens of Texas, eager and willing to work, but
arp denied that inherent right through causes that could not be foreseen,
add which causes are not their'own making and that they apd their
families have the constitutional right to expect maintenance from depend-
able sou fees, and,
Whereas, the funds that were made available at the commencement
oC th(- still existing economical situation in all communities In the state ot
Texas have become exhausted, and.
Whereas, under existing statutes, the state of Texas can not expend a
solitary penny out of Its tnx receipts for direct relief, and.
Whereas, federal funds which are now being provided for relief pur-
poses will not be available in the future if the citizens of this state retu.-te
to authorize their legislature to make state appropriations to assist in cas-
ing for the relief of the aforesaid citizens, and.
Whereas, such authority has been given to the Forty-Third Legislature,
for the submission of. an amendment to the state constitution authorizing
issuance of bonds over a period 01 10 years in an amount not to exceed
$20,000,«00 for the emergency relief of destitute unemployed, and,
Whereas, the adoption of this amendment by the people on Auguvt 20,
-t'9J3 is necessary in order to insure, first, that a continuation of relief
may . lit* afforded those hundreds of thousands of citizens now out of em-
ployment; second, in order that federal aid to the state of local com-
munities in caring for the destitute unemployed as aforesaid mentioned
may be continued.
Therefore, bb XT resolved by the commissioner's court
of oranok County, at its session on August 14. 1033, that:
First: It go on record as endorsing the proposed bond issue amend-
ment ; '
. Second: It request that the citizens of Orange County and the state
answer the new "call to arms" hy insisting that every person that they
knpjv; be given tfl ...understand Ih# dlije necessity ,of answering this call by
going to the "polls on August 26 and adopting the amendment authorizing
the aforesaid bond Issue and jn mo doing eliminate for once and for all
the tragedy ana sorrows of hunger pains in wir own, men, women, child-

CALLED AUG?6
A request as expressed hy a, peti-
tion to call ti local option election to
determine whether of not the sale of
3.2 beer would he legalized, to he
held oil August. 2fi, was' granted by
the county commissioners court in
regular session this morning.
Notices of tho election were being
posted today as required by law.
The election will he held in con-
nection with the state-wide election
on constitutioinal amendments and
other mutters, with the regular elec-
tion judges In charge-
The petition was fuhmltted to
the commissioners court this morning
by C- R. Coale, secretary of the local
repeal committee: R. A Moore, rep-
resenting the central committee, nnd
Attorney O- C- !)%iccy, representing
the Texs« Liberal legion-
Preceding final action on the local
optlori petittnn, considerable discus-
sion was held as to legality of the
petition In its original form. The
question had been rulsed as to whe-
ther or not all of the approximately
500 persaiiH whose names were at-
tached* to the petition were qualified
voters, as indicated in the petition-
The petition proponents declined to,
change the heading of' the petition
without the consent of the signers and
also declined to call on each signer
the second time to procure his or
her signat'uro under the new head-
County Attorney James Neff gave it
as his opinion that the order was In
legal form-
The petition was finally granted
on a basis of the certificate signed
by C- R. Coale to the effect, that
more than 850 names of qualified
voters were attached to the peti-
tion- It was understood that Coale
made a check of the petition and cer-
tified to the same.
Following action of the county,
sponsors of the movement to secure
the local option election laid strews
on the fact that the election Was to
legalise the wile of 3-2 beer and not
for the sale of hard liquor. They
also urged thut those desiring to
cast an absentee ballot get in touch
with County Clerk W- A, Gunning to
procure absentee ballots that may be
Cast for not less than three days bc-
for t,he election- This applies to all
phases of the election
The re pea list declared that the na-
tional administration of president
Roosevelt, in line with the demo-
cratic platform, and the state ad-
ministration of Governor Miriam A.
Ferguson were solidly behind- the
movement to repeal the 18th amend-
ment to the federnl constitution-

A FAIR SAMPLE OF
LIOrOR A R<> I'M K N TS
In a communication. we submitted
to The Leader several days ago e
asked for some beer-minded business
man—-not on the pay roll, .of ,'tfcfl
breweries or the political employ of
the liquor traffic—to explain the
merits of the beer business lis rec-
ords show Orange to have experi-
enced in the, past.
In Tlie Leader of Monday 7 utuler
the bend of Open Forum there ap-
pears to he a reply to that. litllclc.
We hereby call attention of the
readers of The Lender to the charac-
ter of the arguments given In that
reply. Remember we had asked tor
an explanation of the merits of • the
beer business as records show Or-
ange to have sowp nnd reaped from
It. A careful reading of the entire
article above mentioned fails to- dis-
cover one word of the explanation
that was called for- Instead of the
Information for which we asked In
good faith, we ask the patience of
our renders In a fair consdleratiou
of what was submitted.
The reply begins: "Preaching pro-
hibition and not temperance has
placed n great many ministers In an
embarrassing predicament, etc." We
would like to ask In reply wliat that
writer knows about preaching? If
he ever darkened the 'door of my
church I have no knowledge of it.
An inquiry of the other churches
brings the Information thut t|ie wri-
ter of that article has never attend-
ed a single service at either of then
that they have memory of. We are
thus caused to wonder If such is a
sample of the "information" with
whij^i that: writer would offer to en-
lighten this community! ,
He next speaks of "the alley bus-
iness that has grown out of prohibi-
tion." Let us remind him that pro-
hibition doesn't have an alley busi-
ness. All alley business and r.ny
other type of liquor outlawry arc the
works of anti-prohibition—not pt'ohi •
bitlon- The blackest duys of saloon
domination had that "alley busi-

WASHINOTON, Aug. 14. (AP) —
President Roosevelt watched the
Cuban situation intently today, *1111
determined that the three destroyers
he bad sent to the island republic ,-j
shall not intervene in domestic of- 1
fairs but just protect the lives r tu!
persons of American cttixens. " ;,-„j
After considerable study, and wltii
the approval ot the new Cuban pres- ]
Idont, Carlos Mumiel ' 4« Cespcdf r, '
Mr. Roosevelt last night diap.itc.ud
two destroyers to Havana, on the
north, and one to Mnnwmillo, on
the south side of the island. Then I ,-J
he issued this statement; '
■ '■ ■
fjifest advices are to the effect
that domestic dlsttirhnueeB, intituling
acts of violence, arc occurring In
some parts of Cuba among certain I
elements rif the population.
In these circumstances, 1 feel con- ;J
strained as a matter of special pre- |
caution nnd solely for the purpose of
safeguarding and protecting the lives
and person* of American eitlxeo* in 1>$M
Cuba, to order certain vessels to
points on. the Cuban coast. i|
The change of government now
taking place in Cuba Is in entire ac-
cord with the WognUed const ily-
tion and laws of that country, nnd
no possible question of Intervention i
or of the slightest. Interference with
the internal affairs of Cuba has nrier
en or Is irttetided hy this precau-
tionary step to protect. If neccssrry,
the lives of American eltlxens, pend-
ing the restoration of normal condl- S
tions of law and order by the Cuban
nuthorlMes,
I am giving strict Instructions at- _
cordingly to the commander* of encl^
of these vessels. The American peo-
pie deeply symphtliixe with the pea4-
pie of Cuba In their economic dis-
tress. and are praying that quiet and
strict order may soon prevail in «v-
ury part of Cuba., The American gov-
ernment will lend all aid feasible,
through constituted Cuban authori-
ties, for the relief of the distre*«e4
people of the island.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14. (AP) —
The giant pinions of XltA's blue
eagle w«jo held today by officials to
be hovering over n quarters of tbt*
nation's 4tt,ooo,(t00 workers.
A Ad to assume that the wage rais-
ing, work spreading bird would cov
er even more territory, President
Roosevelt and Ms helpers launched
a new series of meetings to map out
the ftituro program. ^
One WAS today, the first conference
between Hugh H- Johnson, iiatlnnal
rocovery administrator. and i'rwi-
dent Roosevelt since the chief exec
titiVe returned to Washington front
his short vacation. Johnshn's ab!es
during hl absence la St. Louis for
a speech last night, reported progr.'ss
to file president, but Mr, Roo«ev« U
wanted ti fferson«l discusHlou with
bin chief lieutenant.
Then later today, or tomorrow, the
president is to meet his recovery
council t<T see that all phases of
the federal effort to better conditions
us being synchronized.
Because the president has accept-
ed much of the advice already given
to him hy Johnson, the Mtnpetytnflot'.
was that Mr. Roosevelt would ap-
prove an elaboration of tho idfa the
administrator is advancing noW', like
in his St. Louis speech last high)
when lie said: *
"If you see a place where there Is
none and you do any kind of busi-
ness there you have ti right to ti k:
'Brother, where la jour bine eaglet'
And (If the answer does not to you
you «e«m fair) to'fake your business
elsewhere. If every person did that
for a week, there would not be
store or a shop or factory in Ibis
whole county without Its blue eajla."
Meanwhile, In the absent* of data
■M'MimSUo Im* correct ||pim,
NBA officials declined today to es-
timate wit hi any claimed attempt a-t-
aeouracy, how far they had conic to-
