amount Of motor vehicle taxes
due on mass transit operations
about $500 900.
Since buying the transit
company here, Mr.. Chalk's
business holdings have ex-
panded into local real estate
a Central American railroad
and two Spanish language
newspapers.
While the P. U. C. has ruled
out some of the costs of thest
businesses in the past, this is
the first year that it slasheo

Huge Expansion
Program Planned
BY Texas Eastern
Would Make Accident Area
Underground Storage
Facility

Texas Eastern Transmission cor
poration which took over the Acct
dent gas field last year, has an
nounced that it has filed with the
Federal Power commission for
authority to begin a four-year eX-
pansion program costing almost
5000 million dollars. This would
be the largest expansion in the
company's history
Baxter d. Goodrich, executive
vice president, said that if approx
al was granted. the first phase of
the plan would go into operation
during the fall of 1864
Involved in the overall plan
ming are about $50 miles of pipe,
three new compressor stations with
a combined total of 1880 horse
power, a new metering and reg
ulating station and changes at eX-
isting compressor stations to raise
capacity. These changes would lift
daily delivery capacity by 100000
600 cubic feet over the present D.
660,000,OO0 cubic feet a day.
"An important part of the eX-
pansion will be the conversion and
development of the Accident Gas
Field in this county, for use as an
underground storage reservoir for
natural gas" Mr.. Goodrich said.
The pipe would be used to con-
meet the Texas Eastern System,
which now runs from the Mexican
border near McAllen, Tex, to New
York City, with a new source of
supply at Venice, La. Most of the
remaining construction would be
along the existing line from Opel
ousas. La, to Lambertville, N. j.
