More Valley Transportation

valley people are inclined to underestimate the i'm
portance of transportation to this section. BY
transportation is meant all means of travel and NOV
ing commodities. by air. water. rail or highway.
The principal reason for losing sight Of the i'm
portance Of such facilities is the fact that the Valley
has SO much to offer without the aid OF adjoining
sections.
But these adjoining sections will be all important
as the Valley develops.
OH is going to be produced in large quantities at
one or more points near the Valley. Biologists are
convinced that the field in Starr county, with one
well now producing. viii be one Of the largest in
the state.
Oil will be produced also in northern Mexico, at
one or more Of the fields now being worked.
Ore is mined near Monterrey, and smelted there.
All northern Mexico is a rich country, which needs
only a few more years Of stable government until
It will begin producing.
These commodities must move out TO the mar
kets OF the world. AS they are developed, 1t will
mean that some point, through which they will move
Is 10 grow into a city such as Houston or San An
tonic.
The Lower Rio Grande Valley is the natural con-
centration point for commodities Of these adjacent
territories. The transportation facilities are being
furnished as rapidly as possible. and the day Is not
far distant when the big development from these
sources will take place, to supplement the natural
richness Of the Valley as an agricultural section, and
its growing attractions as a tourist resort.
We have now two good railroad systems. air trans
portation with half a dozen airports Of varying de-
gree OF improvement, and n fairly good highway
connecting system with the outside world.
The next steps are being taken. Highways con-
Meeting with points in Mexico, such as Monterrey
Tampico, Mexico City, etc. Better rail connections
with Mexico. Water transportation. More highway
connections with the outside-included IN the Hug
The-Coast highway, and the river highway.
These improved means Of transportation will make
q great metropolis out OF the Valley, or some city IN
Il. as the surrounding country develops.
ANY money and effort spent now to improve trans
p~ortation, such as the port work, is well spent.
