Smith Barnes Eye Race But Nothing Definite
Lt Gov Preston Smith and Speaker Ben Barnes said they have talked this week about political plans but won’t announce yet. Speculation says Smith may run for governor if Connally seeks re election and Barnes may run for lieutenant governor if Connally seeks another term. Both traveling and speaking, they expect announcements soon, likely after Connally returns from Africa. They discussed political futures and recent civil disorder concerns in Texas, with Smith citing tense situations in Houston and Barnes addressing racial tensions in San Antonio.

Lack of Crossing Delays Baytown Area Development Plans
Barricaded Archer Road crossing northeast of Baytown slows a new subdivision. Pioneer civic leader Sam Stolander, 76, recalls a road there long before the railroad of 1918 built by R. S. Sterling between Dayton and Humble's Baytown Refinery. Southern Pacific demands a $26,000 signal system before opening the crossing, hindering Fleming interests and Cedar Bayou Park East development. Officials note only one SP crossing with signals on Market Street and discuss proposed automatic crossing protections for Texas Avenue and Davis Road at costs of $14,600 and $11,044 respectively.
