RIGHT OF Way SECURED FOR Rail
EXTENSION TO RIO CRANDE CITY

Within six months, or perhaps within a
somewhat shorter time, Rio Grande City,
the capital of Starr county, will have rail-
road connection with the Gulf Coast Lines,
and Fort Ringgold no longer will be an iso-
lated government military post, so far as
rail connections are concerned.
Lawrence Broks, who said he represents
the war departments construction quarter
master department for the Mexican border,
announced in Brownsville last night that
right of way for the construction of twenty
three miles Of railroad track from the pres
ent terminus Of the Gulf Coast Lines at
Samfordyce, to Rio Grande City, has been
obtained. Construction of the extension is
expected to begin shortly, and the work is
to be completed within one hundred and
eighty days from the time it is started.
Whether the extension will be operated
by the Gulf Coast Lines, under lease from

the government, or whether it will be op-
Grated by the government especially for
military purposes, is unknown here. How
ever, il is certain that whoever operates IL,
the line will handle civilian freight rs well
as serve the needs of the government.
The building Of railroad line to connect
Fort Ringgold, or Rio Grande City, with
the Gulf Coast Lines, was recommended
last winter by Colonel Farrand Sayre, then
commander of the district. and the project
received the approval Of the southern de-
partment headquarters, and later of the
war department. Because of the great
amount of civilian and military traffic be
tween Sam Fordye and Fort Ringgold it
has been found both difficult and expen-
sive to maintain dirt roads. Extensive inn
provements are now under way at Fort
Ringgold, all teh material for which is be-
ing sent from Samfordyce to Fort Ring
gold by army truck transports.
