~ n awakes today
Naae with a grand and
y | glorious feeling.
@ One of possession.
II has been done.
Brownsville Is 10 have a deep-water
port
When NJ. Hoover put his pen TO
that document, he ended all the
uneasiness, and at the same time
checked the play from here on out
TO Brownsville.
Two ports are spoken or in the
wording of the bill. They are
Brownsville and Point Isabel.
Brownsville has secured the tips of
the two islands, and IL due time
viii be digging her sixteen mile
channel. The stage is now reached
IN the play where the two organiza-
tons. Point Isabel-San BeEito navi-
cation district and the Brownsville
navigation can get 70 work, each on
Is own project.
Some announcement was recently
y made that work would start on July
5. This has all the way been held
erroneous by the members of the
Brownsville navigation district.
Many details are yet 70 be worked
out. The project only became Of
ff1faY E~f|nw arI TIA pr1Far+ L an
enormous one.
What chiefly concerns Browns
vile at present IS that she has a
deep-water channel authorized and
that she is going TO build II.
BROWNSVILLE, sitting at the key
N position on the deep-water port.
Already the largest city in the
Valley, has practically doubled its
population. according 70 figures OF
the last census.
Now with the port assured there
Is nothing IN the world 10 keep her
from going over the hill into the
big city class within the next de-
cade. To double again means
$4,000 population.
She has work before her but a
4 people willing and ready TO do II.
A DEEP-wATER port has made
n Houston the leading city in Tex
as. Brownsville should adver-
tise her port 70 the four corners Of
the earth.
Then, while she Is telling the
world Of her industrial possibilities.
she should also be telling the world
about her climate. her wonderful
fishing and hunting. and her nat
ural resources as one OF the most
famous winter resorts in the world.
People are hearing about u ard ii IS
having its effect. One family re-
moved here from Buenos Aires yes
terday. They say the city and the
Valley Is everything to be desired
and they are going 70 live here.
There are thousands OF others IL the
same beat.
MINATED Annie says the more
u people talk about anybody or
- anything the bigger 10 gets.
nRoOF OF this assertion IS found
IN the fact tfAt authentic re-
ports issued from the city hall
show that $40 families have moved
to Brownsville since January ].
This is nothing less than enor-
NOUS. when considered N the light
OF possibilities OF the future. One
thing needed Is to be advertised
abroad, especially IN the northern
and central parts of the state. Is that
IL Is not as hot in Brownsville in
the summer as u Is in central and
northern Texas.
People considering removing here
think o. 1t as being SO far south,
that IL must be terrible IN the sum-
mer. Advise them 70 look az the
United States weather reports and
then add 70 that y sea breeze.

TETHEN people feel fine over some
w thing good coming their way
~ how bright the world and all
about appears. And how rosy the
future. But what the engineer OF
this column wishes 70 remind GER
tain persons OF is that some day oil
will cap the climax OF commercial
Developments. He means those per-
sons who at first laughed at him
about such a thing. Those people
know who they are.
