SAYS PADUCAH FUTURE ROSY

Joseph Ramsey. Jr., N. M. Burns
and Il. Klotz, of st. Louis, are in the
city today. Mr.. Ramsey was for
merly president of the Wabash rail-
road and is now at the head of a
new road being constructed out of

Here On a Visit.
When seen by Sun reporter at
The Palmer today. Mr.. Burns, who is
a frequent visitor In Paducah and
who has always seen great things
ahead for the city, said: we have
no news to give out. We are merely
here on visit to your town. 1t is
Mr.. Ramsey's first trip here. have
always been anxious to have him
visit Padueah, and as he was near
hNit We Juot idh ofti W NloiN 9Ou q
few hours"
"Is your road contemplating COM
ing to Paducah," the reporter asked.
81 can not say that It is" he re-
piled. I'VE are now running a line
from Golcondd to Thebes and work
is progressing nicely"
what do you think of the proba-
bilities OF a bridge across the river
from here to Brookport." the re-
porter asked.
We'll. sir. CO nor think that sou
have lost the opportunity for one
he quickly replied. "You know ]
have always contended that Paducah
is the natural location for that
bridge. but somehow have never
been able to convince your good
people of that fact. You remember
when I was here before I told you
that same story. and you would not
believe II.
But" protested the reporter, I'VE
are told that bridge authorities have
said that a bridge at Metropolis can
be built for much less than here, and
II is the best place for IT,"
That story is told you by folk
with axes to grindf--selfish inter-
ests." he replied. "You Paducah peo-
pie should get busy now and go out
after that bridge. II is not too late. .
Mr.. Burns has great confidence in
the future of Paducah and Brook
port, and says that some day, being
the head of the all-year open harbor,
he would not be surprised to see
this one of the large towns OF the
south. With Mr.. Ramsey and Mr.
Klotz in Mayor Smiths auto he visit
ed around the city to give these gen.
tlemen an insight into the business
activity of the town.
"As to our road coming to Padu-
cab, II is merely a question of the
location OF that bridge. II it is put
up here. to Paducah we shall come
but II il goes to Metropolis, we are
going there. too"
THE Toledo, st. Louis & New
Orleans road is headed for the south
as are three other lines that are over
in Southern Illinois, not far from
here, and the town that gets that
bridge is the one that will be most
profited. said local man who is in
close touch with the railroad propo-
sitions." at means so much to vi
that Paducah must be up and doing,
he concluded.
