Auto Inspection Delays Loom For Texas Drivers
Col. Homer Garrison Jr of the Texas Department of Public Safety warns that inspection lines may exceed capacity as April 15 approaches. Mid October totals show 100 000 lag behind the first month of 1953, prompting motorists to visit one of 4000 stations early. He notes 12 000 violations recorded Apr 15 to Sept 1, 1954, by the Texas Highway Patrol and stresses proactive inspections to avoid delays.

Two-Year Water Supply Secured at Red Bluff Lake
Red Bluff Lake on the Pecos river north of Pecos holds 168,300 acre feet of water, over half full, the most since 1945. The runoff from recent Pecos valley floods guarantees irrigation for Reeves, Loving, Ward, and Pecos counties, aiding farmers who have had no crops for years. The note adds that the U S cane sugar refining industry operates plants in major eastern and southern cities.
