CITY SEEN AS
TRAFFIC HUB
Hug-the- Coast Highwa y
And Mexican Roads To
Boost Brownsville

No point on the American -Mexi-
can border will be as important for
international traffic, both tourist
and commercial. a Brownsville
when the Hug-the-Coa and the
Matamoros-Mazatla highways are
completed, is the verdict Of Judge
II. L.. Yates.
Speaking in particular Of the
Mexican highway now under con-
struction. Judge Yates said: The
people OF Brownsville should appre-
ciate the tremendous value to our
community Of the hard surface
highway from Matamoros to MAJ
allan on the Pacific coast, now un-
der construction.
This road will pass through the
cities Of Monterrey, Saltillo, Tor
rean, Durango, and not only afford
a scenic highway to the American
tourist in Mexico which IS bound to
prove tremendously popular. but al
50 o1ens a way 10 Brownsville from
all nirthern Mexico"
Judge Yates stated that the city
OF Matamoros has undertaken a
very heavy burden in connection
with the completion Of this high
way. and that Brownsville and
Cameron county should afford them
every cooperation, both moral and
practical"
Some means should be devised Of
assisting our sister city in this un-
dertaking. which will prove as great
value to us as to her" he con-
Guided.
Definite plans have been drawn
up by the local chamber Of COM
merce to assist in the completion Of
the project, ond 1t is said that civic
organizations and other city au-
thorities will aid in the future.

CONCORD, N. H., March Z
1.N.S0.-The New Hampshire
State highway department has
inaugurated a system of prac-
tical application of scientific soil
research to the construction Of
modern hard-surfaced thorough
fares. It is the closest approach
to complete subSoil control yet
developed which Is in actual op.
Grafton in this State for the.
first time in America.
Under a series Of soil tests tiae
underlying difficulties which have
hitherto affected the durability
Of hard-surfaced highways are
beinG eliminated. Experts make
borings of three to five feet at
intervals of a few feet over the
entire section of the road under
construction. Tests Of Subsoil
thus revealed determine the char
acter of local construction to
be employed. :.
New Hampshire soils are placed
in eight characteristic groups. In
this State the basic composition
of soil is either of salt, sand or
clay, each offering individual prob
lens in frost expansion and drain
age, two conditions which are vi.
tai to the durability of such high
ways as are being constructed.
Tests are applied to determine
the least amount Of water which
will cause a given soil to flow.
Because Of the prevalence Of silt,
and the most highly absorbent Of
the three soils in New Hampshire,
the tests are essential to the prep
aration of foundation material for
modern roads. .-
In soils which retain o. large
amount of moisture without ade.
quate drainage, this tendency
creates a pressure underneath
which causes upheaval Of the sur
face and eventual serious damage
to that section Of the road under
which the offending soil Is pres.
ent. -
