TO HOLD MEET
ON COAST ROAD
Discussion Of Problems On
Houston Highway To Be
Held On July IL

Plans to speed construction of the
Hug-the-Coast highway from Hous-
ton and Galveston to the Valley will
be discussed at a meeting of South
Texas good roads boosters in Port
Lavaca on July II, if a suggestion
Of County Judge 0. G. Dancy is
complied with.
At this meeting it is expected that
methods for securing a right-of-way
through Kennedy county and for fl
nancing that portion Of the high
way will be discussed.
The meeting to renew enthusiasm
for the Hug-the-C Coast road was
suggested in a letter to Judge
Dancy, written June % by H. G. In
mis-, secretary of the Port Lavaca
chamber of commerce.
"You will remember that during
the years 1925-26-27 we had a Hug
the Coast highway association to
advance the idea Of that road"
Innis wrote. 1T seems now that it
would be advisable to revive this
association for the purpose of Sc
curing earlier completion Of the

highway from Houston and Gal

highway from Houston and Gal
weston to the Valley.
ITO great delight, the people
of Texas n becoming more inter-
ested in this highway than we an
ticipated. Mr.. Worden and I feel
that you r the key man needed at
this first revival meeting"
Judge Dancy in his reply suggests
July IL IS a date for the meeting
and proposes that a committee be
named to work with the Gulf Coast
Good Roads association. This he
explains would relieve the necessity
Of financing a separate ~organiza-
ton and would enlist the support Of
an active organization already in
terested in the road.
He points out that a road through
Wharton, Edna, Victoria, Beeville,
Alice and the Valley through Fall
furrias already is financed by that
organization and continues Il see
no reason for any rivalry between
the two, because this is an entirely
different route, and of course, none
of us have any doubts whatever
about the sincerity of the desire Of
the good roads association to put
over the Hug-the-C Coast highway. In
fact I feel that the Gulf Coast Coed
Roads association is more interested
in this road than in any other high
way in Texas.
In a letter to Cameron county
chambers of commerce, Judge Dancy
suggests that those organizations
assist in financing the association
working for the Hug-the-C Coast
highway, as it lis the most import
ant state highway to the county
and will shorten the distance to
Houston so miles when a road is
built through Kennedy county"
