FAIR TO OBSERVE HISTORY OF TEXAS UNDER SIX FLAGS Lone Star State's Past to Be Reviewed at Centen nial Exposition From June 6 to November 29 ' DALLAS, (UP) Texaa. In cele brating Its 100th anniversary with the Texas centennial exposition June 6 through Novemuer 20, wilt observe a unique historical record the only state Jn the Union ever to attain recognition of a republic, boasting niore flags than any other state, and having had more capitals. The colorful background, engender ed by the change of capital cities, national flags and varying political fortunes, makea a, glamorous pattern for the Centennial celebration. falx flags, which flew over Texas In the years that saw the st&tc'A de velopment from a wilderness to a great commonwealth, will fly over the exposition wounds. Hall of State Unlit ' In a Texas Hall of State, now being constructed on the exposition grounds at a cost of $1 GOO .000, will be housed relics of those old days when Texana could, never be quite sure where the capital would be when they awoke In the morning. In the past 350 years, six flags, France, Spain, Mexico, Republic of Texas, United States, and the Con fedracy, have flown over Texas, and he capital has been moved 15 times, although four cities have appeared in the capital list twice. The flags of Spain and the United States have flown over the "Lone Star" state on two different occa sions. RepoftMMiied by Spain The Spanish banner was raised In Texas before ttiat of the French and later, when Rene Robert Oavaller, Sleur de la Salle, and his followers deserted the short-lived French col ony on Matagorda Bay, Spain re ' possessed Texas. The flag of the United States first flew over Texas when the state Joined the union, ceasing to be a republic. Then, Texas became one of the Con federate states, later rejoining the union. -Texas, alone In the union, became a member of the United States after being established as an Independent republic, whose sovereignty was recognized by Or eat Britain, the United States, France and other powers. Contracted With California Although California set up a re public before the Mexican war. it never attained foreign governmental recognition, nor did It function as an Individual political entity, and Its "republic" lasted but a few weeks. Vermont, before the Boston tea party and the revolution, declared It self a republic and refused to pay taxes to New York, then head of the British colonial government. How ever, the formation of the Continen tal Congress, the Declaration of In dependence and other major events of the period obscured the Vermont republic claim, and It became one of the 18 states. Should the founders of the "Lone Star" state be able to revisit their old haunts today, they would find them revered ahrtnea to the fires of patriotism and Independence that brought forth Texaa. Visitors to the centennial wilt see some of the largest mural decorations ever painted in the United States. Feed Kin Poison ft kx, f fount? n-t.'ar-ijlu luilv Dillon (above) was said bv llnni)!n,W.
