Action Line Muan and Other Local Matters Reflect on Times
A 1948 letter compiles opinions on currency value and Madame Chiang Kai shek’s Washington visit seeking aid. It cites a misinformed Webster entry and calls for the Treasury’s Currency Redemption Division for official word. The piece also questions school lunch portions, praising rationed meals and noting a district director’s defense of portions. It closes by praising a police officer who ticketed a fast gravel-tracker on North TE 10.

San Antonio lawmakers back a measure to authorize revenue bonds for UT System and Texas Tech to fund new facilities. A $185 million ceiling caps bond totals at $40 million for UT, $25 million for Texas Tech Medical School at Lubbock, with protections against open-ended debt and concerns on future tuition funding transfers. Supporters argue the funding enables construction for next biennium. opponents warn of rising costs and future operating money needs as classes begin in fall 1973.
