reau of the chamber OF commerce. the
freight service on the Santa Fe be-
tween Albuquerque and Ell Paso.. in
GLIDING the Silver City branch has
been greatly improved and package

branch Considerable complaint had
been made by the shippers Of this city
relative to the service that line was
giving FL Paso and many cases were
cited where shipments for Silver City
were four and five days en- route
Promised Schedules.
The officials, without hesitation, gave
assurance that schedules would be
made and maintained that would be
interests of this city, although general
manager Fox said that 1t would take
some little time to do this, as 1t was
soe fssns and 20 add an extra train to
do local work In order To give the ser
vice that the shippers Of this city de-

Of his company to not only give in
