Junction Wants
Paradox Road

Grand Junction Chamber of Com

the building OF a road into Paradox

Dolores river at Gateway
In summing up arguments the News
said
Only n few of our people have an
adequate idea OF the immense trade
that will be developed with the Para
dox country when this bridge and roa
are completed and IL ever there was
a time when the people of Grand juno

territory II is now"
II still remains that Delta is the

let for the Paradox trade and products.
and the matter should not be dropped
by our people through the effort be-
fng made in Montrose to spike our
guns. The Paradox needs Delta and
Delta needs the Paradox. Let us keep

Main street at noon Tuesday brought
in from the country south of us a
hundred or more farmers who were

accommodated. Notwithstanding the

They were out on silo sight seeing

A Letter of Interest From
Rep. Robert F. Rockwell

As you know. my family and l spent
Christmas with our relatives in the
East We had quite a trip getting
there, our train out of Denver first
running over and killing a man. and
then one of the rods on the engine
throwing the engine a foot in the air
and nearly wrecking the train. We
were "a hours late getting to our
destination, due mostly to the delays
at the big terminals. Here were the
worst congestions / ever saw. The
railroad men were absolutely lost
They counldn't handle the traffic at
all. We passed miles and miles of
freight cars on side tracks unable to
be unloaded for lack of store houses.
At Detroit there was said to be $4,000.
Mail sacks were strung along for
rods and rods at each station. Most
OF the eastern roads have put embar-
goes on their freight and refuse to
accept shipments between many
points. Even in Denver. three OF the
roads have embargoes between GER
tain points. OF course perishable
stuff is handled. but regular ship
ments are very much delayed. Many
shippers will not guarantee their ship
ments within several months. and

The Time, Place
And Hatchery

The feeling hereabouts since it has

have an additional fish hatchery, is
that it should be built on Grand mesa.
The government is already taking
