new business to Brownsville that such an
investment would soon repay itself outside

sition
The class Of building believed to be ne
cessary, 200 rooms and modernly equipped,
would cost it was estimated, about $780,
600, exclusive of site. Methods of financ-
ing the proposition were discussed by Mr..
Fernandez and Judge Wells, both of whom
believed it would be possible to raise $780,
900 in Brownsville for the project, the re-
mainder to be obtained through a bonding
plan.
The financing, however, was discussed
only in a general way in the open meet
ing, and was further discussed at later
meeting held by the committee. This COM
mittee will meet again today.
The visitor suggested a site that would
give full southeast exposure for all rooms
He suggested two lots for the site, with the
main structure of the building TO TO 90 in
to the air only on one lot, and TO go from
eight to ten stories in height. He said also
that is was useless these days, in his exper-
iencc, to have rooms without bath, that
every room should be equipped with modern
bathrooms and some with showers. lie said
that he could offer no suggestions as 70

an operator only and spoke only from that
viewpoint He said that a lOO-room hotel
would pay from the start, but he advised
the larger proposition to take care Of future
growth.
Members Of the committee stated that at
the request Of the hotel man with whom
they conferred, his name could not be
made public at this time. Suffice to say,
they announced. he was connected with a
number of leading hotels in the country.
and an operator who. IL he comes TO
Brownsville, will prove one Of the city's
greatest assets. Among other things. he
said that a hotel Of the kind proposed would
have to expend from $1,000 to $4,000 a
year for several years in advertising IN
other parts Of the country, to put Browns

Al hotel proposition that will represent
an investment Of more than half million
dollars Is in view for Brownsville.
Announcement to this effect was made
following a meeting of citizens last night
called by the Board of City Development
to hear the views of a prominent hotel
man, who after spending a day in tour
ing this city, unqualifiedly endorsed the
proposition, suggesting a 2O0-room hotel
prominently located, and said that he would
be willing to undertake the lease Of such a
proposition. He said that he estimated 1T
would cost him around $3.50 to furnish
a hotel of this kind.
This man is one of the most prominent
hotel men in the south, and the man who IS
responsible for the success Of a number OF
large. well known hotels. He came TO
Brownsville upon the invitation of the
Board of City Development and several cit
izens. He said that the hotel opportunity
in Brownsville was not new one to him,
that he had been considering the opportun-
tiles offered in this city for first-class
hotel for three or four years. lie said also
that had he not regarded it as an oppor-
tunity of the first water he would not have
taken the time to come down here.
The meeting, which was attended by
about twenty citizens, was crystalllzed fol-
lowing a suggestion by Chairman G. l.. Jes-
sup of the Board of City Development, IN
the naming of a committee of five by Judge
James B. Wells. Judge Wells named w.
Z. Anderson. John G.. Fernandez. X. u.
Creager. S. C. Tucker and c. l.. Jessup. Mr..
Jessup declined to serve, saying he believed
some one should be named in his place, and
Judge Wells named VIM. t. Burnett, seere-
tary Of the Board of City Development.
Mr.. Fernandez then suggested an
amendment adding two members to the
committee, which was accepted, and moved
that Judge Wells and Emilio forto be
added to the committee. This committee
was accepted by the meeting.
The need for modern hotel in Browns
Vile was never at any time questioned dur
ing the meeting, those who were heard on
the subject saying there was no question
that Brownsville would never become a
city until it afforded at least one first class
hotel. X. B. Creager said it was unques-
tionably the city's greatest need today ana
that he would consider an investment IN
