Bill Eases Texas Pension Rules
A bill approved by the Texas Senate would let old age recipients earn up to 250 dollars annually while remaining on the pension rolls during the wartime emergency.

Also reported was the death of Pail Rogers, 49, Fort Worth business leader and Pancburn company president.
