Another great achievement OF the
Diaz administration has been the I'm
provement of Mexican harbors on the
gulf and the Pacific. The latter fact is
especially notable in the instance of
the Tehuantepec route. BY this high
way goods in transit from Atlantic
ports to California have an advantage
of 1,500 miles over the proposed Pan
anna canal.
Conspicuous also has been the rail-
way development, of which the Te-

that was government ownership.
