kennedy COUNTY
HIGHWAY ASKED
State Is Urged to Designate
Road Through This
Section of County

The designation Of the road
through Kennedy county as a state
highway has been requested by
Judge H. L. Yates, president Of the
local chamber OF commerce. ii was
disclosed Wednesday.
Judge Yates explained that the
Hug-the-C Coast highway would be Of
inestimable value TO this section
OF Texas. and that Is the Kennedy
county citizens were unable to ade-
quately construct a cement high
way through their section, the state
should do the work.
The Brownsville Chamber of
Commerce has investigated the pos
sibilities OF the Hug-the-C Coast
highway. Without doubt this high
way will prove greatly beneficial 70
the entire coast country, and TO the
Lower Rio Grande Valley" Judge
Yates said in his letter to the State
Highway Commission.
I'VE understand that one OF the
serious objections to its immediate
construction is the fact that Ken
edy couny is not in any position to
cooperate 70 the fullest extent Gus
tomsry in roads Of this character.
It is our opinion that the economic
value to the state as a whole and
to counties in particular. renders 1t
imperative that the state highway
commission designate the road
through Kennedy county as a state
highway and supply necessary aid
in is construction.
This should be done at the earli-
est possible moment. in order that
the benefit may accrue rs early as
possible" he concluded.

COTTON FIRNIER

NEW ORLEANS. July l7.-tPl-
The cotton market opened f!rmer
Liverpool cables were about as ex-
pected and first trades showed gains
Of three points.
New York opened much firmer
than the market here and private
wires from that point attributed
the advance to an Improvement in
the demand for cotton goods at
higher prices and good buying OF
spot cotton by the mills.
Prices here continued TO advance
after the start in sympathy with
New York. October moved up TO
1895 and December TO 1915, or Is
10 is points above yesterdays close.
At the end OF the first hour the
market was steady and near the
highs.
Following the early bulge In prices
due to the reported improvement in
cotton goods trade the market be-
came very quiet, gradually easing
off until December made a new low
at 1901. or II points under the
earlier highs. but October failed TO
break through its earlier low.
The market felt lack Of support
and at mid-sesSion October was
trading at 1888 and December at
1901. o 7 to 10 points down from
the early highs.
