Allan Shivers, the 41-year-old political prodigy who was student president in 1932, drove to Austin after irom his Woodville farm Tuesday J e s t e r ’s body will be flown to Corsicana, his home town, for funeral ser­ vices. The Blubonnet had carried T e x a s ’ Governor tens of thousands of miles on missions as Chief Executive. firm-jawed An affable but southern Governor who waged war against Federal Civil Rights Legislation with every weapon except desertion from the Democratic P a r ­ ty, J e s te r was credited with keeping T e x a s in President Truman's column last Novem­ ber. He died some time last night on a train between Austin, the State Capitol, and Houston. He was en route to Galveston for a physical checkup and a rest after the longest legislative session in T ex a s History. The Legislature backed up J e s t e r ’s de­ mands for Civil Rights Legislation by the states: It voted to abolish the poll tax as a voting requirement and it made lynching a death penalty offense. It adjourned only last week. Jester was serving the seventh month of his second term as Governor. He will be succeeded by 41-year-old Allan Shivers, serving his second term as Lieutenant Gov­ ernor. Jester was a Corsicana Lawyer and a Farmer. His father had been Lieutenant Governor in the 1890s. J e s t e r ’s body was found by a pullman porter at 7 :3 0 Monday morning. Justice of peace Tom Maes in an official inquest ver­ dict said death was from natural causes. Earlier he had said he believed it wras caused by a heart attack. Je s t e r was swept into office by a big majority after a heated 1946 campaign (See GOVERNOR, Page 5) He seemed tired and his mono­ grammed shirt was rumpled afte r his 225-mile ride. He entered the Capitol’s east side door at 6 o’clock Monday evening, but will not take the formal oath of office until later than Thursday. He said he will follow the “ gen­ eral’’ policies of his predecessor. “ We were close political, as well as personal friends,” Shivers said. He will “ not necessarily” follow J e s t e r ’s policies to the letter, hut there will be “ no major changes.’ Shivers plans to call a special session in January, if necessary, for an eleemosynary building pro­ gram. He has, however, been tra- ^axes ditionally conservative and expenditures. on It was not known whether Gov­ ernor Je s te r had signed the four m ajor appropriations bills. Shivers has favored one-year instead of bi­ ennial appropriations. issue Perhaps the m ajor on which Shivers and Jester disagreed was tidelands. Shivers spoke out for a “ compromise.” Je s t e r let it be known he was in favor of unre­ lenting state ownership. + Shivers began inauspiciously in campus politics. In October, 1928, he was one of four candidates for Law School Assembly. Three were to be selected, Ile ran fourth. He was a member of Friars, Cowboys, Delta Theta Phi, legal fraternity, Interfraternity Coun­ cil, Athletic Council^ Board of Texas Student Publications, pres­ ident of Men’s Honor Council, member of the Order of San J a ­ cinto, Curtain Club, and the All- University Dance Committee, and chairman of the Judiciary Coun­ city. He received bis bachelor of arts in la wdegree in 1931 and his 1933. In 1935 he Born in Lufkin, he was reared in Woodville and has resided in Port Arthur for the last 23 years. became T e x a s’s youngest senator at 28 and was elected President Pro Tempore in 1937. He served there for twelve consecutive years. Shivers defeated Boyce House in governor’s lieutenant the 1946 runoff. He is considered a certain candidate fo r governor next sum­ mer. He spent two years in the Army in North Africa, Italy, France, and Germany, earned five cam­ paign ribbons, the bronze star, and emerged with the rank of major. Upon his return, he was instru­ mental in pushing the $60,000,000 college building program through the Fiftieth Legislature.

'July 12, 1949 THE SUMMER TEXAN Page I Truman Tells Congress Tax Boost Plans Dropped WASHINGTON, July l l (A5)— P resident abandoned Trum an Monday his oft-repeated demand fo r a $4,000,000,000 tax boost. He called instead for an eleven- point program to combat the re ­ stable, cession and produce “ abundant” economy. a The President also laid down a tem porary policy of deficit fin an ­ cing (operating in the red) by re­ fusing the countenance clashes in federal spending on foreign aid, defense, or social services. In his message to Congress, along with the mid-year report of his Council of Economic Ad­ visers, the two key sentences were th e se : “ No m ajor increases, in should be undertaken a t tim e.” “ We cannot expect to achieve a budget surplus in a declining na­ tional economy.” taxes this Mr. Trum an was cautiously cheerful. He said th at while there has been a “ m oderate downward tre n d ” in business, there are no signs indicating a repetition of the black economic picture the 1930's. of “ The United S tates economy is the strongest and most produc­ tive the world has ever known,” Mr. Truman said. “ We can achieve within a few years a national out­ p u t well over 300 billion dollars (a fifth higher than today’s s ta t­ u s ) .” Mr. Trum an will carry his eco­ nomic ideas to the nation by r a ­ dio Wednesday night. His address Freshman Scholarship Deadline July 15 will go over all four m ajor n et­ works a t 8 :30 o’clock.” Mr. Trum an’s legislative pre­ scription included repeal of the tax on the transportation of goods, increases in estate and grift ta x ­ es, and a liberalization of some corporation tax law. Most proposals had a fam iliar ring. They include public works planning, the Brannan Farm Plan, expansion of social security and jobless pay, and extended veteran benefits. such as standby powers to curb prices and wages. From Congress and the finan­ cial district, the reaction was fa ­ vorable in large part-—particular­ ly over his dropping of a tax increase. There was some grum ­ bling still smacked too much of a “ W elfare State.” the message th a t Republicans found little to com­ plain about, although some agreed with Senator T a ft (R-Ohio) who commented: Scrapped were Mr. T rum an’s old inflation controls, demands fo r “ There is nothing new in the has program, except th a t he dropped his demand fo r new in come taxes, which was always wrong.” Acknowledging th at unemploy­ m ent has become serious in some areas with 3,800,000 jobless, Mr. Trum an stressed th a t the federal governm ent m ust help build up jobs and production, raise con­ sumer income, and buying power. “The whole world is watching developments in the American ec­ onomy,” Mr. Trum an said. “ Our own people insist upon the main­ tenance of prosperity, and will not tolerate a depression.” Truman Economic Program Is New Deal, Stockton Says “ A return to the basic econo­ mic tenets of the New Deal..” T hat's how Dr. John R. Stock­ ton, professor of business statis­ tics and statistician for the Bu­ reau of Business Research, de­ scribed T rum an’s President “change-of-pace” message to Con­ gress Monday. “ The President is ju st recog­ nizing officially what most busi­ ness people have known fo r most of this year,” Dr. Stockton de­ cleared. “ Any cures for our econ­ omy a t this time m ust be aimed at curbing deflation ra th e r than inflation.” The P resident’s mid-year report contrasted sharply with previous demands for a $4 billion tax in ­ crease, and continued price, wage, and business controls. The Chief Executive charted a the deficit spending course for American ship of state. no severe recession, saying that such a decline would be unique. The president listed these rec­ ommendations as of “vital impor­ tance:” 1. Shun any m ajor tax increase. Repeal the transportation tax, ex­ cept on passengers, and liberalize the carry-over of losses by cor­ porations. Raise estate and gift levies. 2. Lengthen the tim e lim it for repaym ent of loans made to busi­ ness by the Reconstruction Fin­ ance Corporation. from 40 cents an hour to a t least 75 cents. 6. Bring more industries under unemployment compensation. In­ crease the benefits, and lengthen the period of idleness covered. 7. Extend for one year— to July 25, 1950— the V eterans’ Read­ justm ent allowances. 8. Raise Social Security bene­ fits. Extend coverage to more per­ sons. Increase direct public aid grants. 9. Let federal agencies speed the advance planning of federal works and acquire sites. 3. Launch a study of the in­ vestm ent and development needed 10. Provide technical aid to de­ for an expansion of the economy. velop the world’s backward areas and encourage foreign investment. 4.Adopt an “ improved program the Reciprocal of farm income supports.” (Con­ Trade Agreem ent Act, to bolster gress is badly split on the farm program ; House Democrats will world commerce.

July I t (ZP)— A Union of Pacific Coun­ tries against Communism was pro­ posed Monday by Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek of Nationalist China and President Elpidio Quir- ino of the Phillipines. Participation the United States was said by informed sour­ ces to be a prime objective. of In W ashington, however, a State D epartm ent Spokesman declared the United States was strictly on the sidelines, and reiterated Sec­ reta ry of State Acheson’s objec­ tions to a Pacific Pact as pre­ m ature. A t the Stat# D epartm ent said it had every sym­ pathy with efforts of Pacific peo­ ples to develop close cooperated relations. the same time The Union immediately idea came under sharp attack from tho anti-adm inistration nationalist par­ ty in the Phillipines. “ President Quirino is playing with fire, and not he, but the en­ tire nation will be burned,” de­ clared Claro M. Recto, who wa* foreign m inister of Jap an ’s pup­ pet Phillipines republic during th® war. Newspapers generally coun­ seled a go-slow policy. Quirino and Chiang made their proposal in a joint statem ent con­ cluding two days of conferenced at this summer capital. Tall Fean Pad May Breed War WASHINGTON, July l l (A*;— Senator T aft (R-Ohio) Monday opposed the North Atlantic Se­ curity Treaty and its companion Arms-for-Europe program a breeder of World War III. as Announcing his decision to vote against the pact, the Ohio Sena­ tor told his colleagues: “ I cannot vote for a tre aty which, in my opinion, will do fa r more to bring about a third world war than it will ever do to main­ tain the peace of the world.” From the Democratic side, Sen­ ator Gillettee (D-Iowa) told th* Senate he will vote to ratify th* tre aty but only twelve-nation “with reluctance, with deep misgivings, with grave doubts and qualms.” the greatest Senator K efauver (D-Tenn) urged the Senate to follow up the expected ratification of the treaty with a move toward Federal Union with other free nations.

In fact, Mr. Gray left us so mortified in his Sunday script, that we will hauntily name the next wandering pooch “ Sa­ lome” ju st to be obstinate. In case you ha ven ’t been keeping up, Annie has found a cave filled with a paltry h u n ­ dred million bucks. T h a t ’s not as warm-hearted a discovery as Al Capp’s “ Schmoos,” bu t it has a metallic luster all its own.
