OUR


LET'S TALK SHOP awhile today.
The summer Isl is on, and
radio reception is more or less pro-
blematical.
Do readers OF the Herald want us
70 continue the publication every
day OF the Associated Press radio
program for that evening?
II has occurred to US that the
space occupied by the AP program
could be used more advantageously.
We are a radio fan perhaps Just
a little above the average in our de-
votion 10 the dial during the even
ing hours, and the difficulty we
have experienced lately In getting
any station out OF the Valley leads
us TO wonder.
You may not believe us. but our
main idea in the publication OF
The Brownsville Herald is to give
our readers the new and informa-
ton they want.
II you want these national pro-
grams published every day. well
publish 'em.
II you are not particularly in
terested during these playful sum-
mer months. we'll lay off until fall.
May this be considered sufficient
notice that they will be disconti-
nued. effective July 1st. unless We
receive enough protests TO assure
us that Mr.. and Mrs. Reader want
this feature continued.
NOW ANOTHER THING still
talking shop. Do you, cotton farm
er, and cotton ginner and cotton
buyer, want the Herald TO continue
publication each day Of both the
New York and the New Orleans
cotton market?
Would the publication OF the
New orleans market be sufficient,
or do you need them both in your
business?
Understand, We r glad TO give
them both. Buff one would be
enough for your purposes, that
space could be occupied by other
news of more general interest.
And talking about markets. Is
anybody in the Valley interested In
the grain market? And If so, would
ydmk rather have the Fort Worth
a. market than the Chicago?
knd does the livestock market
: report published by the Herald
every day do anybody any good?
Wed Just like 70 know.
CITY ZONING COMMISSION OF
Brownsville meets tonight 70 con-
slider several matters Of vital i'm
portance 10 Brownsville.
Frankly, our streets are too mar
row.
II the coming commission is able
10 work out a satisfactory method
OF widening some Of our principal
business streets. that commission
will have performed a public service
worthy of more than temporary re-
cognition.
IOWA. THAT'S WHERE the tall
corn grows. II our memory serves
us anywhere near correctly.
Iowa would also seem 70 be the
state where IL gets hotter.
Can you-you who revel in the
cooling breezes Of the Gulf OF
Mexico. imagine Il being los on the
25th OF June?
NV word-wouldnt those folks
back in Iowa like 10 be able 70
dash down TO Boca Chica or Port
Isabel?
This old Valley Is not such a bad
place to spend the summer at that.
Wonder why our good friends
Henry Kelley and Bill Kiekel don't
induce the S. p. and the NJ. P,
respectively 70 run advertisements
in the northern papers telling OF
the lows Of vacationing in and
around Brownsville, Texas?
Let's take il MP with them next
time We see them.
