1500 lots in the tract or one for
eveTy 100 residents of the Valley
Hr. Huff said.
“There is one thing on which the
A'alley sticks together and that is its
water front.” Mr. Huff said. .“Mis-
sion and Kdinburg can claim the
beaches oft Padre Island Just as well
as Brownsville or Point Isabel and
they are just as much interested in
the development of these beaches.”
Let Hotel Contract
Mr. Huff said that* contract has
been let to J. McDaniel of Edinburg
and Donna and that work is well
along on the hotel building which
will have 12 rooms. This building
is to be equipped with mechanical
refrigeration and will have a dance
floor a large lobby and the bathing
houses wiJJ be erected as part of the
hotel equipment. Bath houses will
be furnished with fresh water show-
ers the water being secured from
wells on the island.
AVork on a sidewalk all the way :
across Padre Island through the ren-

Secret of Feathered
Warrior Close Guarded
Behind high palisades closely
guarded by his employes W. A.
(Snake) King of Brovnsville is now
training a huge bird which is sched-
uled to meet a rattlesnake in dead-
ly combat ;n the Fort Sam Houston
arena at San Antonio Aug. Ufi.
The variety of bird Kiag will
place in the arena has not been
made public and the secret will be
jealously guarded until the feath
cred warrior enters the arena.
At King's nimal bird and snake
farm near Brownsville birds of all
varieties from all parts of the world
are housed. Rumor is rife to the ef-
fect that Hugh South African bird
will be entered by King to battle the
Texas rattler but many South
Tex-is sportsmen are predicting that
a Texas road runner" of Inrge di-
mensions is the *darlv horse."
s
at the location for swimmers and
the present plan is to put a firing
of buoys anchored on ropes in the
wnter a short distance out. At a
still greater distance from the shore
a large raft will be anchored for
swimmers who care to go out to it
Mr. Huff said.
Other improvements planned in-
clude sidewalks and streets.
Have Fine Site
This tract of land extends all the
way across Padre Island from the
ocean side to thg bay side a distance
of half a mile. ' The plan is to ar-
range a landing pier on the bay side
and run boats directly from Col. Sam
Robertson’s pier at PAint Isabel us-
ing his ferry boats to convey auto-
mobiles. Also the tract is crossed by
| the Ocean Beach driveway on the
I ocean side and visitors may come uj j
bv that route.
The hotel will be connected with
the telephone line of the Ocean
Beach company Mr. Huff said.
It is the belief of the developers
that Valley people as well as persons |
in other parts of tho state will buy
| lots in the subdivision to erect sum-
| mer homes and cottages. J
POLITICAL
(Continued from page one.)
of the brief second campaign statu-
tory provisions relating to campaign
contributions and expenditures be-
came more deeply involved in the
argument. It now appears that the
city of San Antonio charged Gover-
nor Ferguson and Moody $25t) as
“hall hire’* for the use of the mu-
nicipal auditorium during the last
campaign whereas the law says $50
shall he the limit for hiring a hall.
This is connected with Mrs. Fer-
guson’s charge that two candidates
for the state legislature contributed
to Moody’s campaign and Moody's
countercharge that a candidate for
county judge contributed to Mrs.
Ferguson’s fund.
The call for the Moodv rally here
Saturday is signed by three former
governors and the widow of a for-
mer governor. Mr. Moody will be
present to rally his supporters and
to plan his campaign. He may make
no lengthy reply to the Ferguson
statement of yesterday wh i c h
charged that he was the candidate |
of the Ku Klux Klan*. In a brief
statti
“the
must now be exhausted" and inti-
mated later that he would say no
more.

vice president of the Al Parker Se-
curities * ompnny the developers.
Two lumber companies the Kagle

railway track. It will then be stuc-
coed and remodeled by the develop-
ers after being moved by the Clulf
( oast Lines.
In putting in the water reservoir
at Olmito. according to Mr. Parker
an unusual bit of work is being dorr.
The reservoir is in the nature of a
canal with a large number of curves
and bends in it. This canal or.
which work is being done by Joe
Ballinger of San Benito will lead
into the filtration plant. Most of
the silt in the water will settle be
fore it reaches the filtration plan
due to the curves which slow the
flow. Mr. Parker said.
A small bathing pier Has bc.n put
in at Olmito. and several larger
amusement features are being fig
11 red on. Last Sunday several hun-
dred people used the new resort city

SLOW DROP IN
COTTON PRICE
Trading Quiet With

Liquidating *
NEW YORK N. Y.f Aug. 12.—4>P)
- A renewal of Wall Sfreet liqui-
dation. local and southern seliin*4
caused further declines in the
cotton market in today's early trad-
ing. The selling was promoted by
relatively easy Liverpool cables
with reports of continued favorable
weather in the belt and was again
accompanied by ^txlk of a possible
•nciea.-e in the mid-August crop in-
dication as compared with the Aug-
ust 1 figures.
The market opened easy at a de- '
dine of 13 to 17 points and showed
net losses of 15 to 20 points before
the end of the first half hour with
December selling down to 10.12 or
the lowest price touched since publi-
cation of last Monday’s government
crop report.
Liquidation was much less active
than yesterday and after the early
break to 111.12 for December the
market steadied on a little trade
buying and covering. Prices rallied
10 or 15 points from the lowest
during the middle of the morning
but bearish sentiment based on the
more optimistic view of the crop
remained more or less in evidence
and the impiovoment was net fully |
maintained. Trading was compare- t
lively quiet at* mid-day with De- |
• ember selling at lfi.lt* op about 10 j
to 14 points net lower.
