As the result of the publication by
papers in the Estancia valley of the
visit Of II. L. Nudge and other Rock
Island officials to the EstanCia valley,
during which they made a trip over
the New Mexico Central and confer
red with New Mexico business men,
the old rumOr that the Rock Island Is
about TO take over the line and build
into Albuquerque was again revived.
As in the past, everyone hopes that
the report is correct, but thus far it
has gone no further than an inspec-
tion of the property by the Rock ISL
and officials, according to a New Mex
leo Central official today.
1t is also asserted on good author
ity that other interests are now en-
gagged i'm investigating the property
and il is highly probable that some
deal will be made whereby the New
Mexico Central will be built into this
city within a short time and the Hag

1t is a watter of vital interest to
Albuquerque to see the New Mexico
Central built into this city. either by
the Rock Island or any other inde-
pendent concern. which will guaran-

passenger and freight traffic. 1t is
equally as important to the develop

here In Georgia have what they call the holy
