Kraft of Chicago, president of the Kraft- Phenix Cheese Corporation and one of the foremost men of the dairy industry in the entire United States. He won the hearts of his audience when he started off with “When I work and work and can’t work any more, then I’m moving to Texas.” Mr. Kraft traced the growth and development of the cheese industry from 1913 to the present time and stated that Texas has everything to make it the greatest dairy state there is. He was cheered by the delegates when he told them that he considered Texas people the “most American ized” people in the Union, He was also applauded when he told of turning down the offer of a fab ulous amount from Russia when the Soviet Government had tried to employ him to develop the dairy industry in Russia, “because they didn’t have enough money in the whole place to persuade him.” Kraft ended his talk repeating the Governor’s statement that “You can’t legislate prosperity; you must work for it.” During the afternoon the dele gates heard addresses by Prof. K. M. Renner, head of the dairy man ufacturers department of Texas Technological College; F. W. Atke- son of Manhattan, Kansas; and W. L.

Presbyterians Start Drive for Funds To Build New Church The Presbyterian Church of Col lege Station is conducting a cam paign to raise funds to erect a church building for the 600 Pres byterian students of A. & M. At present the church services are held in the chapel of the Y. M. C. A. building where they have been held since the church was first organized 12 years ago. The aim of the church for several years has been the erection of a building of its own. The fund for the new building has already been started, and has accumulated to more than $1,000. This is just a beginning, however, since the cost of the building to be constructed is estimated at $75,- 000 and will include an auditorium to accommodate 500 besides addi tional rooms for an educational department. Rev. Norman Anderson, the pres ent pastor of the church, has been the pastor since 1928 when the church was first started. In the beginning there were only 22 mem bers. Now there are over 100 members exclusive of students. There are nearly six times as many students as faculty members list ed in the church rolls.
