Allred May Yet Be Federal Judge After Governor Term

Corpus Christi and Austin reports indicate Governor James V Allred said July 12 he may finish his term as governor before becoming a federal judge for the southern district of Texas.

Harry Nass urged strict traffic-law enforcement as criminal district attorney candidate. Public rallies featured many local officials and candidates, including Long, Fraser, Anderson, Fleet White, Scholz, Solcher, Adams, and Brevens, with Speakersons recapping policy aims.
