Milam and Navarro Wheat Backers Silent in Texas Vote
Milam County and Navarro County were the only Cen-Tex areas to back the proposed wheat control plan, which failed statewide and nationally.

It also mentions related political moves, a Bond division record, and a 10 day cotton deadline extension due to dry weather.
