Connally Returns to Austin After Parkland Hospital Stay
Governor Connally is back in Austin after a 13 day Parkland Hospital stay with a remarkable recovery from critical wounds. He has operated from the hospital, Mansion, and Capitol and faces a heavy cast on his right arm for 90 days with full use uncertain for months. Lt. Gov. Preston Smith praises Johnson's leadership and notes strong states rights in Texas. The Padre Island land deed is on display in the State Library, and Austin is poised as a future world news center as LBJ returns to the ranch. A Texas water pollution hearing features Connally endorsing a cooperative state federal effort. Banking charters in Midland and Howe gain or lose approvals by January 9.
