START FERRY
SERVICE MOVE
Would Establish Line
Across River Up
Military Road

= move was launched Wednesday
10 interest small capital in the estab-
iishment Of a ferry service across the
riEe- about six miles out from
Brownsville on the Military Road.
The idea for such a service was
conceived by A. E.. Munday, city man.
ager, and H. Sterling, city tax col
l~ector.
I'VE want to talk the idea around
a little" Munday said, "and see IL we
can get somebody interested. A ferry
service up the river would prove
profitable to the operators and also
to Brownsville"
In discussing such a project, Mum
day and Sterling declared that there
were numerous settlements and i'm
mense plantations situated up the
river on the Mexican side, and un-
der present conditions those people
living M the river are forced to 20
many miles out of their way in order
TO get 10 Matamoros or Brownsville
to do their buying. What roads there
are on the Mexican side arc very
poor under best conditions and i'm
passsble TO automobiles during the
rainy season. The meanderings Of
tue FiNeT 1oFCe lEdAllC Nlflts OUT VI
a direct path.
"If ferry service was established,
say about six miles from Browns
vile where the Military Road comes
down the river" Munday said, "peo-
pie living in settlements and on
plantations on the Mexican side could
cross over and come into Brownsville
in buses over the Military Road
which is now being paved. They
would probably do all their buying
IN Brownsville instead OF crossing
over TO Mstamoros and that would
mean more money to this city"
These men we're of the opinion that
regular bus service would be estab-
lished between Santa Maria and
Brownsville as soon as this road is
completed but IL regular inter-city
bus service is not inaugurated. II
would pay for drivers of Browns
willie buses 70 u an hour or two
hour service between this city and
the ferry, they thought.
