r F. Burgess wired today from Austin
to r. B. Orndorff, president Of the
chamber Of commerce. The message was
IN reply to a telegram which Mr.. Orn-
dorff sent Mr.. Burgess Friday evening,
as follows:
Relative to our wire Of the 10th inst,
will say that valley land owners are ex-
lremely anxious TO have the title vail

sion, il possible
IF you think We can render assist
ance please advise. suggesting best
manner Of procedure in your opinion"
The titles referred to are in the So
zorro and san ElizariO grants. There is
no dispute over any Of these lands, but,
owing to the absence Of certain records
in the titles, lawyers refuse to approve
titles except where the owners have
gained possession by the statute OF
limitation.
Real estate men and business men
fear these few titles in the valley may
cause the public to become skeptical Of
all titles: Furthermore, the tying up OF
any land as a result Of titles is detri-
mental to the growth Of the valley in
population and the chamber Of COM
merce and the new real estate organi-
cation have given approval to the mat
ter of having these titles validated BY
the legislature.
