Gov. Gil FavOrs City
in Street Car Row

Governor Portes Gil of the state
Of Tamaulipas. Mexico, in a prelimi-
nary report has upheld the objec-
tions OF Matamoros officials to a
street car track being maintained
on Sixth street, leading into the city
from the international bridge, il
was reported here Tuesday.
The governor in his communica-
tion stated that. while he has not
reviewed the case carefully, believ-
ed Matamoros officials correct in
their objection to a track being
maintained on that street.
Counsel Employed
The city officials of Matamoros
have employed counsel to present
the matter TO Governor Gil. and a
further report is expected from the
official soon, relative to the dis
agreement between city officials and
the owners concerning operation of
the line, following the tearing out
Of the tracks last week.
The car line is owned by Francis
co Armendariz AZ Brothers of Mon
Sr. g. Co., Of Brownsville ard Santa
Cruz.
A statement issued by city Off
cials of Matamoros following n re-
cent meeting declares that body is
in favor Of prohibiting the opera
tion of n street car line on Sixth
street. The executive body further
took the stand that only an cleo
trically powered trolley system
should be allowed to operate in
Matamoros, in case more cars are
operated there. and held that the
street car company should pave all
streets on which its tracks are main
tanned.
Go to Federal Government
Meanwhile representatives of the
street car company have placed the
matter before the federal govern
ment in Mexico. since the owners
and operators are not Mexican cit
izens, and a decision from that
source il expected soon.
Street car service is still at a
standstill, although n bus line has
been put in operation from Santa
Cruz to the city since cessation Of
street car service.
