Texans Voice Support On May Ballot Liquor Race and Dairy
The Democratic and Republican state committees place liquor by the drink on the May 4 ballot along with pari mutuel horse racing and a Texas Dairy Commission. Voters will express opinions, not binding law, as part of a broader campaign landscape shaping the primary and tourism drives statewide. Dedication ceremonies for the Davis Mountains State Scenic Park and other park grants accompany Connally’s tourism push.

Texas watchdog audit cites big screw worm drop and agency shifts
Auditor C. H. Cavness reports the screwworm infestation fell from 49 484 cases in 1962 to 1 219 in 1967 reflecting the eradication program. The Animal Health Commission turned most program duties to the federal government except for Rio Grande Valley production plant supervision and inspection force. The state won a 1 000 civil penalty suit over a water permit violation by a Bellville contractor and the Texas Supreme Court denied rehearing on a peddlers ordinance against an insurer. Civil and political reassignments and appointments sweep Texan offices and boards from oil to education sectors.
