IT.. hirtory RI Texas ports, the tremendous influ-
rnce they have eaorted in connection with the devel-
opmenl e the Southwest. is one Of the most interest
inF records n transportation and economic achieve
mcnts IN history. In no part Of the world have ports
and water transportation accomplished such far-reach-
inr results or opened to commerce such great areas rich
in every natural resource.
Texas ports last year handled exports ~totaling
TSs5.47l tons. valued a. s642,s 93.22I. and imports Of
es4.S5o tons valued at $42,01242s. One Of the most
significant features Of these figures, in addition TO the
fact they show = tremendous volume Of business. is
that the trade balance exceeds that Of any other sec
ton ~ the United States.
Development If the entire state Of Texas has fol-
lowed the opening Of the ports. Following the Civil
war, when the state had few ports, and those unsafe
for large f~rsighters. men OF vision. realizing that out
lets mast he secured for the tremendous tonnage
Texas could produce, inaugurated the movement for
more and better ports. Countless millions Of dollars
were expended ia the construction OF the ship channels
and harbors which serve Houston, Texas City. Beau
mont. Orange. Freeport. Port Arthur and Corpus
Christi. But the investment Of those millions has
brought billions in wealth to Texas. The ports have
opened the markets for the grain and cotton crops Of
the state; they have made possible the development
Of the states oil and other mineral resources; they
have brought to Texas new industries, hundreds q
thousands of homeseekers and farmers. In fact. Texas
ports have been the prize factor in development Of
every resource the state possesses, and satzr trans
~portation has laid the foundation for future develop
ment which eventually will make every acre Of fertile
soil in Texas productive.
The development Of the Houston port, which last
year assumed premier position among the ports Of the
Texas Gulf Coast in handling export tonnage. has no
parallel in the history Of transportation. In 1928 the
Houston port handled e4s.l65 tons Of export merchan-
disc, and 4s49i5 Of imports. In 1927 there was ex-
ported through the port 2.s73,517 tons, and the imports
were 1855 tons. the port showing an increase Of
nearly 500 per cent in the volume Of business in four
years.
II is interesting to note that during the four-year
period every port on the Texas coast showed an in
crease IN tonnage handled. The Corpus Christi port.
opened in 1926. handled only 4.511 tons that year, and
last year the export tonnage advanced to sS-2o6. val
ued at S2i.234622. ard the import tonnage was 5.s97
valued at S5242ss.
What the ports have accomplished for other Sec
ticns Of Texas may be taken as an index to what a
port would accomplish for the Lower Rio Grande VAL
Ter. the only remaining section OF the Texas Gulf Coast
that is still dependent upon railroads to handle its
tonnage. And incidentally, the Lower Rio Grande
Valley As a tonnage producer, has possibilities far sur
passing taose of any other section Of Texas.

The World and All


aren't you afraid to ride in the subway after that
dreadful wreck" This is a favorite question asked Of
New Workers by visitors who have read Of the horrors
Of the wreck Of August "a.
And the answer invariably is, "0f course mott"
Nothing heroic about the answer, either. New York
srs know that one bad wreck doesn't make subwayz
dangerous. And they have come to have great conf
dence IN the safety Of subway travel.
Up TO about 1918 the subway trains had never killed
a passenger. That was the best safety record ever
made ny any transportation system. Even today, with
two bad wrecks on the debit side, and a few minor se-
cidents in which passengers have suffered, the New
York subway system remains the safest avenue Of
travel in the word. It handles millions every day, ami
it rarely hurts anybody except those who commit sui
eide BY jumping In front Of the trains.
Times Square subway station receives and dis
charges more passengers in a day than any other rail-
way station in the world. Yet it possesses no build
ing, in the usual sense Of the word. IL consists Of long
wide underground galleries, three and four deep, with
stalrways leading to the streets and into the Easements
Of neighboring office buildings.
At rush hours, morning and evening. the platforms
and trains In this busiest station on earth are always
jammed beyond the widest imaginings Of anyone who
doesn't know New York. Showing the passengers into
the trains during rush hours has become a brutal &C.
eupaticn, engaged in by a small army Of uniformed
bruisers. As soon as a train stops and discharges it's
passengers. the thousands on the platforms surge for
ward and try TO get inside the cars. Ten cars make an
express train. Trains cannot start until all doors are
closed. The platform men" throw themselves against
the backs e those struggling to get in. and shove
hard. When the last pound Of flesh that the cars can
hold has been squeezed through the doors. the hefty
helpers see that the automatic doors do not jam, and
the train IL off.
Il was such a train. thus loaded. that was wrecked
while running at full speed. The confusion was pretty
bad, Of course, and the slaughter was awful. But trains
were jammed just as much as ever the next morning,
and will continue TO be well patronized. For one thing.
the subway offer almost the only means Of tFansporta-
tion available TO many New Workers. Also. IL il fast,
and II Is safe for anybody whose ribs will stand a good
deal of pressure.
