This series consists
of reports and maps of the Texas Planning Board, dating 1929-1937 and undated
(bulk 1935-1937), from a project sponsored by the Works Progress
Administration. This was WPA federal project No. 3, better known as Texas
Planning Board Staff Project 6909. This project was designed to assist the
Board, through additional staff and funding, in its studies of the natural
resources and economic conditions of the state. Data gathered was used to
promote economic expansion and development, primarily in the fields of
agriculture and industry. Other areas studied were forestry, commodity trade,
public health, transportation, water resources, and mineral
resources. |

A semi-official Texas Planning Board was created on May 21, 1934 by
Governor Miriam A. Ferguson at the request of the United States National
Resources Board. Its goals were to study the state's natural resources,
initiate a long-range planning program outlining needed public works, and work
in cooperation with the nation-wide planning program of the National Resources
Board. As this Board was not legislatively mandated, it received no funds.
Office space, equipment, and personnel were furnished by several state
agencies. The National Resources Board supplied three consultants and a clerk.
The Board was composed of fourteen members, several representing state
agencies, i.e., the State Reclamation Engineer; the State Health Officer; a
member of the State Board of Water Engineers; Chairman, Texas Railroad
Commission; Chairman, Texas Highway Commission; and Director, Texas Forest
Service. The first meeting of this Board was on July 2, 1934. The final meeting
was jointly held with the official Planning Board on April 18, 1935. At this
time, all records of the old Board were transferred to the new Board.
Accomplishments of the old Board were the preparation of the bill creating the
official Planning Board, and a comprehensive study of the people, environment,
and natural resources of Texas. This study assembled information concerning
basic conditions and desirable undertakings for improving the social and
economic conditions of the people of the state.
The Texas Planning Board was established on March 16, 1935, when
Governor James V Allred signed into law House Bill 197 of the 44th Legislature.
The Board was created for four years and its authority was limited to making
advisory reports and recommendations. It reported to the Governor, Legislature,
and the various State and Federal agencies with which it worked. The Board was
comprised of nine members. Three were ex-officio members, the State Highway
Engineer, Chairman of the Board of Water Engineers, and the Secretary of State,
who also served as the secretary of the Board. The other six were appointed by
the Governor with the approval of the Senate, three of whom represented
agriculture, labor, and reforestation. The Chairman of the Board was appointed
by the Governor and the Vice-chairman was elected by the Board members. The
Board employed a Director and small staff. The National Resources Board
(formerly the National Planning Board) encouraged the formation of state
planning boards to conduct state-wide planning in conjunction with its
nation-wide planning program. Texas and other states forming such boards were
furnished the services of consultants to assist with their planning
programs.
Much of the Board's research was conducted through committees. Nine
subject-oriented committees were appointed initially by the Board, each headed
by a Board member. In later years, two or three more committees were added,
chaired by private citizens. Committee members were selected from state
universities, business and industry, and the public at large. The committees
conducted studies, made reports, and drafted proposed legislation. Another
committee, the Mapping Committee, had no particular subject affiliation. It
prepared maps when needed for other committees' studies and reports. The
function of the Board was to promote and assist in the conservation and
development of the natural resources of the state. It was also empowered to
work with the Federal government to acquire money for relief projects in Texas
from the $4,880,000,000 relief bill approved by Congress. The Board developed a
work program consisting of the following points: improvement of public health;
determining a land use policy; conservation and utilization of surface and
under-ground waters; determining mineral resources in the state and promoting
their industrial development; preparing a policy of reforestation and placing
forestry on a substained-yield basis; studying transportation and
recommendations for improving the highway system and other modes of
transportation; conducting a comprehensive industrial survey and encouraging
development of Texas' industries; studying the state educational system; and
studying various aspects of government and society.
It encouraged and assisted counties, cities, and regions in setting up
planning boards to review and plan for smaller-scale projects. The Board itself
concentrated on state-wide endeavors. The Board was successful in obtaining
Federal relief money for a number of state-wide surveys and projects, and
smaller-scale public works projects. It received funding and staff from the
Works Progress Administration to assist in some of its research activities.
These studies, known as staff project 6909, focused on the natural resources
and economic conditions of the state. Other areas researched were: surface and
underground water resources; land use; public health; forestry; industry;
population composition and distribution; mineral resources; hydroelectric
power; oyster production; education; low cost housing; revenue and taxation;
transportation; recreational facilities; the 1939 New York World's Fair, and
the Golden Gate International Exposition in San Francisco. A major undertaking
was a study of the State's river basins, done in conjunction with a nation-wide
water study conducted by the National Resources Committee (formerly National
Resources Board). From this study, the Planning Board prepared a plan for the
development of Texas rivers.
Several other research projects culminated in published reports.
According to the Board, those pertaining to mineral resources and industry were
particularly useful, as these promoted the business and industrial aspects of
the state and its resources. The Board also supplied general and recreational
information about Texas for tourists and other interested parties.
As a result of Board studies and investigations, several pieces of
legislation were drafted. Proposed legislation included an act to control the
labeling of milk; an act establishing mosquito control districts; a bill to
create the State Department of Public Welfare; a bill to regulate and promote
conservation of underground water; revisions to Texas mineral laws; and a bill
to extend the life of the Board. The Legislature did not continue the Board and
it ceased to exist on March 16, 1939. The Board held a special meeting on March
13 at which disposition of its books, records, and equipment was decided.
Return to the Table of Contents
This series consists of reports and maps of the Texas Planning Board,
dating 1929-1937 and undated (bulk 1935-1937), from a project sponsored by the
Works Progress Administration. This was WPA federal project No. 3, better known
as Texas Planning Board Staff Project 6909. This project was designed to assist
the Board, through additional staff and funding, in its studies of the natural
resources and economic conditions of the state. Data gathered was used to
promote economic expansion and development, primarily in the fields of
agriculture and industry. Other areas studied were forestry, commodity trade,
public health, transportation, water resources, and mineral resources. In
addition to topical research, this project provided clerical and technical
assistance to the Bureaus of Economic Geology, Engineering Research, and
Business Research, all at the University of Texas, to assist with research
undertaken by these departments. A report summarizing the work done on this
project through March 1937 is present at the end of this series. Included with
these materials are the WPA Project Proposal for mineral studies,
correspondence, copies of government documents, and a few articles possibly not
part of this research project. Folder titles of these latter items are preceded
by an asterisk, to distinguish them from known project documents.
Notably missing from these materials are the reports covering the
state's eleemosynary institutions, minerals, and water resources. Some of the
miscellaneous hydrology materials in the Maps, Charts,
and Notes series may be part of these studies. Many of these items were
moldy and brittle due to water damage. Because of their deteriorating
condition, these materials have been electrostatically copied and the originals
destroyed.

|
|
Maps compiled by the Board, with the assistance of the Bureau
of Economic Geology, showing the location of various mineral deposits in the
state. Following the state maps are a set of county maps, pinpointing deposits
of the mineral Greensand in each county. County maps for other minerals in
their study were done but are not present. See maps 6863-6883 for maps showing
the location of mines, quarries, etc. for many of these minerals. These
production maps are located in the Maps, Charts, and
Notes series. |
