TRADITION
Tradition 5 s the hobgoblin of little minds—politically speak-
ing. There is no one less bound by tradition than Mr. Roose-
velt. In the matter of his acceptance speech back in 1932, and
In every official act since that memorable day, he has shown an
ability to act in accord with the needs of the moment, and
irith complete indifference to the dictates of hide-bound tradi-
tion.
Most of our traditions in politics are matters of expediency.
Any thing to get votes is good—all else is bad politics. The
hcost of getting elected is so much that most political candidates
unable to "break even" after one two-year term. Hence the
tion that a man "just naturally deserves to be re-elected."
;h reasoning is specious. It is not fair to the voters—other-
we should make political offices twice as long. If a man
ot show his capacity in two years, he can never show the
ts which he promised his constituents. Lack of ability is
indicated by lack of capacity. We believe Frank Bezoni
the capacity to make us the kind of Congressman we need
this hour of National emergency. We doubt the capacity of
predecessor. Just as we intend to "Be with Bezoni," so
Id we "Put the Bee On Beckworth!"

Wew Turkey Raising Plan
Another experiment in game
3ration attempted by bio-
sts ow the Texas State Game
irtment, has apparently
led. It is that of rais-
Wild turkeys in semi-cap-
ity, but in pens large enough
prevent turkeys from assum-
the characterises of tame
treated in Robertson County
Ofie of 1he six large areas
Game Department has un-
leash in various parts of
State is a twenty-acre pen.
fclve hens and three gob-
were placed in it last win-
and nearly fifty turkeys
released outside the pen
the 80,000-acre tract. It was
eved that not only would
I the turkeys inside would de-
I coy the hens and gobblers out-
I aide the area and thus keep
I them from leaving the game
I preserve. To date the project
I have been successful on both
I counts. A state game man-
I ftger recently counted thirty-
I six young turkeys inside the
120-acre pen and there pro-
I bably are more. Too, the tur-
I keys outside have not roamed
I to any noticeable extent. The
I turkeys outside the pen have
I also hatched a good many
I Poults. Thus the turkey pop-
Bttlation of the area has been
Idoubled and may have been
[tripled. An accurate count is
tlmpossable due to the adept-
ties of turkey hens at hide-
|*&g their nests.
Turkeys placed inside the
I fence had their wings clipped
[fast winter. However, the wings
are growing out and the birds
will be allowed to leave the pen
soon.
This method of raising turkeys
was attempted in one other
state, but with not as much
success as was attained in
Texas, it is understood. The
experiment is a Pittman-Rob-
ertson project, the federal
government paying three-
fourths of the cost and the
game department paying one-
fourth.
Snake Brought Angler Fish
A sportsman whose vera-
city is above reproach, but who
is publicity shy, recently re-
lated an odd experience to the
Game Department. While fish-
ing in the Colorada River he
saw a water snake swimming
toward a sandbar upon which
the angler was standing. The
snake had a twelve-inch cat-
fish in its mouth. Upon reach-
ing the sandbar, the snake
when only three feet away
from the fisherman, apparent-
ly became alarmed, dropped the
fish at the sportsman's feet
and darted back into the water.
The angler dropped the cat-
fish into his creel
How Many Texans Fish?
The question of how many
people fish in Texas lakes and
streams has never been known
due to the unusual fishing
license law in effect. Only per-
sons using artificial bait are
required to have a license.
However, the Game Depart-
ment is now taking a census
which probably will determine
Fox, Quail Hunters Merge
Texas fox and quail hunters
have almost always been at
odds so the announcement to
the State Game Department
that an organization has been
formed in Henderson County
which includes sportsmen from
both groups is really headline
news. The new group, The
Henderson County Hunters
Association, with Bryan Wof-
ford of Athens its president,
has as its aim the uniting of the
interests of quail and fox hun-
ters in that county.
Reasons Are _ Lacking
Pop Boon in Fort Worth Press
Agitation for a longer and com-
plete closed season on fish in
Texas seems to be growing con-
stantly. I have been campaig-
ning for that three years. I
can put up a million arguments
for a closed season on fishing
and as yet no opponent has
arisen to offer me one argu-
ment against a longer closed
season on all fishing.

WHAT IS
MALT?..
and how is it
used in making
beer and ale ?
Answer: Brewers' malt is
barley that has had its star dies mod-
ified. The barley is first permitted
to"sprout"by the addition of mois-
ture. At the right instant, the growth
is checked by heat and the sprouts
are removed.
What remains is malt... the es-
sential base of all good beer and ale.
Every step in the brewing of good
beer and ale has been taught by
centuries of experience. T oday, amaz -
ingly expert brewers — using only
BARLEY
the purest ingredients—make beer
and ale the mild, tasty, wholesome
beverages that they are.
Now the brewing nuhistry is tak-
ing action to keep the retailing of
beer as wholesome as beer itself.
A plan to eliminate abuses is already
in effect in a number of states. It is
being extended. Ask us for an inter-
esting free booklet.
