- Once again submitting chiropractic licensing acts to the Texas Legislature, the TSCA bill proposal in 1947 again met with questions regarding its constitutionality.
- TSCA employees a State Supreme Court retiring Judge to write a chiropractic Act in a constitutional manner.
- The Keeler Award for 1947 was awarded to. T. J. Lamar, D.C.
In 1947-48 chiropractic in Texas was again seeking a licensure law and had a constitutional lawyer draft the next bill so it would be satisfactory to both the chiropractic and legal professions. The revised bill was introduced into the 1947 session of the Texas State Legislature but failed to gain enough support to pass. Its constitutionality was a major issue.
About this time a judge stepped down from the State Supreme Court bench after a 21 year career and was soon employed by the Texas State Chiropractic Association to write Section 1 of the Chiropractic Act in a constitutional manner.
C. C. Philips is named the twentieth President of the Texas Chiropractic Association.
