are sliding doors and incense burn

picturing dragons and other exotic
emhlems have been found near the
murdered body Of the Chinaman.
Mexicans are still nervous, and
anyone with Chinese blood in his

There may be some foundation
for the belief that tong warfare has
broken out in this neck OF the
woods, but we believe that If the
murdered man had been a Russian
a rumor Of soviet uprisings would
have circulated Just as rapidly. Or,
If he had been an Indian, fear Of
Indian raids. and Of painted war
riors on the warpath, would have
been the result.
But he was a Chinaman, so we

Seaweed
Seaweed, stringy. dirty brown,
full OF peculiar berries, Is occupy
ing the public eye along with Chi
nese murders.
The weed is piling UP along the
gulf shores and at some places
reaches the height Of several feet.
An aerial survey Of the situation
disclosed that the stuff extended as
far out as Is miles in the Gulf Of
Mexico, and was apparently drift
ing stubbornly towards the beach.
A San Benito resident has suggest
ed that the stuff be sold to some
chemical manufacturing concern,
and let them use It for iodine.
However, seaweed is seaweed, and
Is creating a lot Of trouble.
The Brownsville Chamber OF Com

the hope that the Woodworking

Business is entering the second quar-

Mr.. Wright, who goes on to say: 1.-THE

work to be done on the bill by the

"It is significant that the national

Corporation News

NEW YORK, April 5.-The following
is today's summary Of important cor
poration news prepared by Standard
Statistics Co., Inc, New York, for the
Associated Press:
The Industries.
Fertilizer-Sales of fertilizers In nine
Southern States during March totaled
tons year ago. In eight months, ended
March 81. sales totaled 1881 1898 tons,
against 2,976,1 08 in previous like period.
Lead-American Smelling & Refining
reduces price C lead is points to $50
cents pound.
Paper and Paper ProductS-Although
shipments Of news print in first two
months of 1880 showed a decrease of
l per cent, as compared with similar
1929 period, the prospects are that con-
sumption for the entire year 1880 will
record no recession from the 1929
takings. Because of the unsatisfactory
price levels ruling for the commodity
and low operating ratios in relation to
capacities, the earnings outlook for
manufacturers, over the period, is DOOR.
Trade sentiment as to the longer term
prospect, however, is much improved,
as it is believed that late this year price
levels for newSprint, applying to 1881
contracts will be elevated. Such q de-
velopment, naturally, would assist ma
terially in restoring this division of the
industry to profitable basis.
Public Utility-February electric out
put totaled 1924 100000 kilowatt-hours,
an increase of per cent over February,
1929. Daily average was 272, 800, 0c0
