Deflection alarm on the world’s longest bridge
C-10-R and its mate C-10-L carry the cantilever span. A one-and-a-half to almost two inch inward bend in the center of C-10-R alarms Meade and prompts a clash with Abbott. Meade flies to New York to seek orders as tension mounts over possible collapse and who bears responsibility.

Farm Bureau Cotton Association outline and depot plan
A Texas Farm Bureau Cotton Association leader describes the organization as democratic with one member one vote. The group operates like a bank, with a charter, stockholders who are growers, a board of directors, elected officers, and cotton as capital stock. They hire expert graders and store cotton in a fireproof Houston warehouse with low insurance. Also included is a public notice regarding a probate of will in Gillespie County and a 1923 Fredericksburg probate proceeding for Miss Christine Schneider.
