candidate since Herbert Hoover.
Mr. Hoover in 1928 became the only Republican presidential candidate to win Texas. Only one other person, Sam Houston, has ever carried the state on any ticket but the Democratic. He was elected governor on the Know-Nothing ticket in 1859
This year Gov. Allan Shivers, Sen. Price Daniel, National Committeeman Wright Morrow and many other state Democratic leaders have announced their support of Gen. Eisenhower. They were following instructions of the state Democratic convention which ordered Texas Democrats to support the Republican candidate rather than Gov. Adlai Stevenson.
Sen. Daniel and Gov. Shivers both announced their opposition to the national ticket before the Texas primary in which both won heavy majorities over avowed pro-administration supporters.
The split between Texas Democrats and the Stevenson ticket widened recently when he came out for federal control over tidelands oil while Gen. Eisenhower endorsed state control.
Democrats supporting Gen. Eisenhower warn Stevenson is trying to rob the school children of Texas of the revenue from oil deposits in the so-called tidelands.

Ravenous forest fires ate their way through more timber and brush lands across the country today and threatened to wipe out Joplin, Mo.
Flames devoured at least 21 buildings on the western edge of Joplin before they were stopped late yesterday. Officials said the danger was not past.
Police broadcast to city residents a warning to: "Attach your garden hoses and wet your houses. Do it now." A hundred fire reports were received by the Joplin fire department, half of them from within the city.
An emergency brigade of 500 professional fire fighters, farmers, National Guardsmen, Boy Scouts and other volunteers continued their fight at Joplin to secure their hard-won victory.
Meanwhile, the fire menace reached into Chicago today as grass fires swept across the city.
U. S. Highway 66 was blocked off just west of the city as fires burned on both sides of the pavement.
