We your finance Committee
to whom the within petition
for aid was referred, beg
to report: while we appreciate
the conditions that provail
in Zapata County and the
necessity there is for im-
mediate action to relieve
the suffering there, Yet
we have no authority to
donate trust-fund, and are
so advied by our city attorney.
However, we appeal to the
citizens fo Fort Worth to
respond to this call for
help and to send their do
nations to the Mayor
or to judge Harrios
that there may be no
delay in forwarding
the donations.
