dspeth introduced a bill for a Gadsden Purchase half dollar into the House of Representatives on April 25, 1929; it was referred to the Committee on Coinage, Weights, and Measures. On January 29, 1930, committee chairman Randolph Perkins of New Jersey sent a letter to Treasury Secretary Andrew W. Mellon, enquiring as to the Treasury's views. Mellon replied on the 31st, opposing the bill. He felt that Congress had wisely decided in 1890 that coin designs should not be changed more often than once in 25 years, and that the 15 commemorative coin bills passed since 1920 were wasteful and a burden on the Mint. He noted that in 1927, at the time of the Vermont Sesquicentennial half dollar, the Coinage Committee had gone on record in opposition of commemorative coin issues, many of which were only of local and not national significance. Several issues had failed to sell out, resulting in coins being returned to the Mint to be melted, and he suggested that a medal be issued instead of a coin. On March 8, Hoffecker sent a telegram to the committee offering to pay for the entire issue of 10,000 anytime the department wanted, and given that the Mint had produced over 30,000,000 coins for other nations in 1929, any burden posed by commemorative half dollars was slight.
Hearings were held by the committee on the bill on March 10 (briefly) and 17, 1930, with Perkins presiding. On the 17th, Congressman Guinn Williams appeared on behalf of Hudspeth, who was ill. Williams, a Texan, stated that the coin issue was important to the entire Southwest, that proponents would not allow the government to incur any expense, and stated that they were ready to pay for the coins. He also presented a joint resolution of the houses of the Texas Legislature, asking the state's representatives to introduce and support a bill for a Gadsden Purchase half dollar. Next to speak was Albert Gallatin Simms of New Mexico, who assured the committee of his support for the bill, and that of his state's two senators. Hudspeth sent a letter, and his secretary Kate George told the committee that the senators from Texas, New Mexico and Arizona were unanimously in favor of the bill. Hudspeth's letter stated he had been told by Hoffecker's committee that the money from the coins would be used to set up a small monument where the U.S. flag had first been raised in the Gads

<div style="width:650px;text-align:left;font-family:calibri;font-size:17px;padding:15px;border:1px solid #2A5FBB;">Imagine YOU are the person in this true story ...<br />
<br />
<b>“For God’s sake, You can’t take away my driver’s license and throw me in an old age home – I’m only 62 years old!”</b><br />
<br />
I woke up in an ambulance. I looked at my hands and they were covered in blood. A paramedic was standing over me and I asked her, “what happened to me”? She said “you were in a car accident and we are rushing you to the hospital” ...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://containerhome.buzz/NKEFmKuZHFtM0tHV1GvCj75ad5wpOFPH1KtJ5W64Uub2a_Ze" target="blank"><img src="http://containerhome.buzz/0bc41e89a86b1a7023.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I remembered I couldn’t read a street sign clearly ... this led to me crashing head-on into an oncoming car.<br />
<br />
While I was in the hospital bed, I overhead my own son and daughter talking about the need to have my drivers license revoked and put me into a nursing home “for my own safety” ...<br />
<br />
That sure got my attention!<br />
<br />
I bolted up and screamed at my kids ...<br />
<br />
<b>“For God’s sake, You can’t take away my driver’s license and throw me in an old age home – I’m only 62 years old!”</b><br />
<br />
Frankly, I was scared and worried because my vision had been getting worse.<br />
<br />
My eyes often got tired, and nighttime driving gave me high anxiety.<br />
<br />
Reading and seeing far away became difficult, instead of easy like it used to be.<br />
<br />
I just had an eye exam and got new stronger lenses 4 months ago, so I thought I was OK but I guess not.<br />
<br />
Instead of just going to the eye doctor and getting stronger lenses, I needed to do something different to improve my vision, and I did.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://containerhome.buzz/NKEFmKuZHFtM0tHV1GvCj75ad5wpOFPH1KtJ5W64Uub2a_Ze" target="blank"><b>I used your tips.</b></a><br />
<br />
It takes just minutes a day. And it works. Now I have no more problems driving -even at night. I have no more tired eyes, blurry vision or headaches either. And the eye doctor said my vision has actually gotten better!<br />
<br />
Please don’t let wait for a car accident like I did to strengthen your vision naturally. I could have easily died. And I could have lost my drivers license at a young age. You know, this incident made me realize driving is so important to our lives .... going to the grocery store ... the Walmart or Target ... out to dinner ... the drugstore ... the doctor office ... most of all driving to see and take out my precious Grandkids.<br />
