ture and is in the journal of the As
sociation of Women’s Literature.
Letras Femeninas was started in

mar University, who has since died.
The journal has grown to a circula
tion of about 180 private subscrip
tions and 100 library subscriptions in
the United States and abroad.

tives in each Latin American country

Dr. Adelaida Martinez, A&M as
sociate professor of Spanish and
general editor of the journal since
1985, has worked to improve the
journal’s academic quality and for
mat.
“Until I took over the journal, it
was mimeographed,” Martinez said.
“Sometimes articles that had already
been published were simply photo
copied. Now it comes out in print.
“I also have a core of experts who
evaluate the academic quality of
original manuscripts submitted.”
Only women may submit original
creative writing, which must be in
Spanish. Martinez said men as well
as women may submit literary crit
icisms, which may be in Spanish, En
glish or Portuguese. All who submit
must be members of the Association
of Hispanic Women’s Literature.
Martinez said contributors of cre
ative writing usually are not widely
known, although critics are usually
university professors who are well
known in their Fields.
Submissions are received from all
over the Spanish-speaking world,
she said, inlcuding Mexico, Argen
tina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Costa Rica,
Spain and Chile, as well as the
United States.
Although Letras Femeninas only
publishes women’s writings, Marti
nez said it is not a politically
activejournal.
Restricting the journal to mostly
women’s work hasn’t caused a shoi t-
age of material, she said.
There is a large backlog of sub
mitted work that allows Martinez to
have each submission evaulated by
prominent critics before publication,
a change well-received by readers.
In the past, the journal was less
critical of the academic standard of
submissions, she said.
Martinez is responsible for the di
rection and management of the
journal. She tries to impart a the
matic unity to each issue; one was
devoted to women’s involvement in
the Spanish Civil War.
The journal has received Financial
support from both the women’s
studies program at A&M and the
College of Liberal Arts. In return
the journal helps the Sterling C.
Evans Library increase its holdings
of women’s studies and other aca
demic journals received in an ex
change program.
The journal also provides publi
city for A&M’s undergraduate and
graduate colleges.

HOUSTON (AP) — Texas will
gain 65,000 new jobs, including
20,000 in the Houston area, as the
state’s economy continues on a slow
but steady growth pattern during
1988, an economist said Monday.
“Texas and Houston are continu
ing to recover from last year’s
blows,” said James L. Cochrane, se
nior vice president and chief econo-
mist for Texas Commerce
Bancshares Inc. “We see this recov
ery continuing into 1988.”
The new jobs, he said, “are not
fantastic by Texas’ historical stan
dards, but it’s positive.” The jobs
should be of higher quality than in
past years and concentrated mainly
in the manufacturing sector.

by Kevin Thoma
From the beginning of the oil-
patch problems in January 1986,
Houston shed 7,500 jobs a month,
but that stopped this summer, Coch
rane said. During the last several
years, jobs have been growing by
about 200,000 a month nationally,
he said.
“We see Texas recovering at the
end of the First quarter of 1988,”
Cochrane said. “Houston, obviously,
has more to go to get back to where
we were.”
So far this year, there have been
39 significant start ups in Houston to
help the ailing economy.

“Recent U.S. job growth has, quite
frankly, been a higher quality than
those of past years, in terms of in
comes and secondary impacts on lo
cal areas,” he said.
Barring a national recession, he
said he expects the growth in man
ufacturing jobs to continue and
Houston and Texas should share in
that growth.
A national recession, would blunt
but not stop, the progress, he said.
“If we do have a national reces
sion, we are so well positioned in
Houston and in Texas because we’ve
gone through two periods of leaning
down this decade,” Cochrane said.
