mands for electric power"
"Mr. Weston requested the early

the company will INSTALL, stated
Mr.. Fox.
The Minneapolis man, who is as

plant at Nogales. THAT end of the
business is also growing and we
must be ready for it,, said Mr..
Fox Nogales is rapidly becoming
one of the most important Car ic-
ing stations in the Southwest, Mr..
Fox claims, and as such it behooves
the Foshay company to maintain
an ice plant that will produce
huge volume of ice. This calls for
both manufacturing capacity and
ample storage facilities.
Mr.. Fox, who is an operating man
for the company, advises that all
of MIR. Weston's recommendation
will be carried out and that the
new equipment will be installed
just as soon as bids can be secured
and contracts let. The new ice ma
chine will be installed at once so
as to make room for the huge
Diesel engine that Mr.. Weston has
selected. The new engine will be
installed at the number one plant
on Grand Avenue.
Mr.. Andrus' representative stated
that specialist will be here to
direct the work but that the Fo-
shay contract will require that all
skilled and common labor is to be
secured right here in Ambos No.

At HermosiIlo, through the gen.
erous assistance of Governor Fran

for grading and fencing the land
ing field. A. Hoeffer, Jr., devoted
almost his entire attention to this
work.
Farther south, landings were
made at Empalme, but citizens Of
Guaymas, interested in having the
planes stop there, promised to con-
dition an airport in the bay town.
Mazatlan, too, plans a new field,
with meter drainage facilities.
AS the unaccuStomed roar OF the

towns along the way, men, women,

the speeding ship. When landings
were made, at Culiacan, Tepic, Her

large crowd gathered to welcome
