ACRES OF COTTON BALES
ROTTING AT VERA CRUZ
Congestion at Docks Still Serious.
Mexican Railroads and Farms
Show Activity

MEX1CO CITY. February 1.-The
congestion at the port of Vera Cruz,
due to the dock workers strike sew
ceptibly relieved and thousands of
tons of valuable freight are lying in
the harbor either on ships or barges
or are piled up on land where space
permits.
Acres of baled cotton, black and
rotting from exposure, have been ly
ing in the open for long periods
awaiting shipment to the United
States or Europe. Hacienda owners
ucts to the vagaries of the port, and
are holding at a losso crops which
should have been shipped weeks ago.
Machinery needed for planting or
harvesting and delicate parts for
printing presses are piled high in the
mediate removal.
The region traversed by 800 miles
of railroad connecting Mexico City
with Vera Cruz is busting with ac-
tivity, such as has not prevailed in the
last seven years. If there is unrest
and trouble brewing on the eastern
Mexican slope, as has been persistent
ly rumored in Mexico City, it is not
evidenced in the cultivated fields and
reconstruction work. which is being
pushed along the entire route.
This railroad runs through coun-
try fourishing with crops, then
through a wildly picturesque noun
famous region and finally through
dense underground and the foliage of
the tropics. While travelling by this
road the Associated Press correspond
ent was shown scores of farms under
cultivation which, so the informants
asserted, had not been touched by
pillow for years. The railroad line it
self reflected the energy of recon-
struction, for along it's entire length
were strewn new ties and rails. with
dozens of section gangs repairing the
roa died, neglected for years.
Blockhouses established during the
CarranZa regime. from which federal
soldiers patroled the entire road, have
been abandoned and garrisons have
been reduced to a minimum.
