2 agricultural leaders
given awards at confab
Two of Texas’ outstanding ag
ricultural leaders were presented
the Knapp-Porter Award last
Thursday at the state conference
of the Texas Agricultural Exten
sion Service.
They are Roy B. Davis, general
manager of the Plains Coopera
tive Oil Mill, Lubbock, and David
G. Gault, general manager of the
Mid-Tex Milk Producers Associ
ation, Austin.
The award was initiated in 1964
by the state organization to rec-
ogniize “those few outstanding
individuals who have made a sub
stantial contribution to Texas
agriculture and family living,
who recognize the importance of
informal educational programs
for adults and youth, and who
have assisted in projecting the
visionary aims of Dr. Seaman A.
Knapp, the originator of Exten
sion demonstration teaching, and
Walter C. Porter, the first farm
demonstrator.”
Both Davis and Gaulte were
presented a bronze plaque by
Extension Director Dr. John E.
Hutchison.
According to Hutchison, Davis
is an outstanding leader of agri
culture, not only on the High
Plains of Texas, but in the whole
cotton south. He manages the
largest cottonseed oil mill in the
world and has put together a
success story that has extended
beyond the cotton fields of Texas
to national prominence, beyond
agricultui'e to business and civic
leadership and responsibilities.
The agricultural leader was
born in Waldo near McGregor
but grew up in Lamesa. He was
graduated from here in 1927 and
served as a county agricultural
agent in Gaines and Terry coun-

WASHINGTON, D. C. — Celia
may become the third most costly
hurricane, in terms of disaster
relief expenditures, in the history
of this country, the American
Red Cross reported today.
Last week the Red Cross sent
out a nationwide emergency ap
peal for a minimum of $6 million
to provide relief and recovery as
sistance for victims of the storm
that smashed into the Central
Texas coast Monday afternoon.
The $6 million projected figure
is topped only by Hurricane Ca
mille (1969), in which Red Cross
disaster relief costs exceeded
$21 million, and Betsy (1965),
with expenditures of $17.5 mil
lion, officials said.
They pointed out that Red Cross
budgets $10 million a year for
disaster relief which, under ordi
nary circumstances, is sufficient
to meet the emergency and recov
ery needs resulting from an av
erage year’s catastrophes. But
ARC disaster expenditures during
the past five years have totaled
$88,000,000, far above the annual
average.
It is very possible, officials
said, that the costs of Celia may
well exceed the $6 million esti
mate. The figure was projected
after a survey made of the de
vastated areas only a day after
the storm blew through. As Red
Cross caseworkers began to plan
with thousands of individual fam
ilies for the rebuilding or repair
ing and refurnishing of their
homes, the cost may go higher
than the Tuesday estimate.
ties. He took over the reins of
the Plains Cooperative Oil Mill,
Inc., in 1943.
Davis gave strong leadership
to the organization of the Plains
Cotton Growers, Inc., now the
largest, most effective cotton
producers association in the
United States. His staunch lead
ership in organizing the Farmers’
Cooperative Compress, Plains
Cotton Cooperative Association
and Growers’ Seed Association
has been a tremendous boost to
the industry.
Davis has been instrumental in
developing and guiding the Na
tional Cotton Council and served
as its president in 1968. He has
worked diligently to expand the
export market for cotton in
Europe and Japan.
He was named “Man of the
Year in Texas Agriculture” for
1965 by the Progressive Farmer.
Gault was born on a dairy farm
in Travis County and learned the
dairy business at an early age.
He currently owns and leases
1,200 cultivated acres and 290
acres of grassland. He is milking
236 cows at present.
According to Hutchison, Gault
was a pioneer of the American
Dairy Association of Texas and
president of the American Dairy
Association of Texas in 1955-56.
He is also past president and
director of the Texas Milk Pro
ducers Federation.
He received the “Man of the
Year in Agriculture” award from
the Texas County Agricultural
Agents Association in 1963. Gault
was also the recipient of the Land
Bank Medallion in 1967 for out
standing contributions to Ameri
can agriculture.
Other than his present position,
Gault is serving as director of
the National Milk Producers Fed
eration in Washington, D. C.;
member of the legislative com
mittee of the Texas Federation
of Cooperatives; and secretary-
treasurer of the Austin Dairy
Herd Improvement Association.
