Christine is south and west of San

country to be traversed by the pro-
posed extension is quite rough. but
local railroad men express the opin-
ion that no difficult engineering

construction could be accomplished
easily and at comparatively small
cost.
Local men this afternoon express
Ell the opinion that the possibility of
the development Of an oil field in
Starr and Zapata counties as well as
the rapid agricultural development
of the Lower Rio Grande Valley are
the attractions which have resulted
in the request for permit to build,
