CITY AIRPORT
GROWTH seen

The increasing importance OF
Brownsville as an international air.
port OF entry is seen by K. @. Buck
lev. agent of Cha. Mexicana de Avia-
cion. in the formation of the Kan
sas City-Brownsville passenger line
which will probably be in operation
this month.
This port grows daily, says Mr..
Buckley, and officials believe 1t VIII
soon leave far behind the import
ant port of Miami. Passengers go
ing to southern republics had rather
fly all the way over land, In the
agents opinion.
Aviation business in Mexico has
been steady. Buckley said. with a
decided increase during the period
OF the Inauguration ceremonies IN
Mexico City.
The air-mindedness Of the Mex
lean Is much greater than one might
imagine. the air official said. Trans
portation from Tampico TO Mexico
City and Merida is considerable
greater than on this end Of the line
despite the low percentage OF Mex
leans financially able TO travel by
air.
A passenger line from New Orlean:
via Houston to Brownsville is be-
lieved one OF the next necessary
steps for the growth of this port.
