PACKING
PLANT Seen
FOR VALLEY
Purchasing e r
And Livestock
Favor Plan

A big meat packing plant for the
Valley may now be In store. This
staten ent is based upon a trip 70
the Valley by a man who owns two
or three big plants in M or two
states. but who will not at this
time permit his name to be used.
He quietly slipped into the VAL
ley, got in company with a well
known cattleman and proceeded 10
make his own business survey.
What he wanted 70 know. by seeing
for himself. was now many in
habitants this section has. and
particularly how many head OF
livestocs he might be able to buy.
Northern Mexico may decide him
favorahly. He was shown how many
head Of cattle might be crossed
from there. and seemed ~favorably
impressed. He also expressed self
gratifying surprise at the ostensible
purchasing power Of the Valley as
he found Ii.
He spent several days here. was
asking nothing in the way Of IL
nancial backing, or favors. and re-
ported that his first findings are
favorable toward the establishment
OF a plant n this section. He owns
one big plant In Oklahoma.
On leaving he said he expected
to return within q few days when
nc will probably make his tina
decision.

The Alamo, according TO Mr..

point on which he was not clear
whether II a originally built as
