ONE WHO KNOWS THE INS
and outs of the potato business from
the standpoint of the Valley grow-
er—
Makes the suggestion to us that
^ight now ought to be a really fine
ttme.
To revive the old Cameron County
Potato Growers association.
He tells us that with such an or-
ganization again functioning here
the price of spuds ought to reach a
really attractive figure to the grower
The idea makes sense to us we
pass It on to those intimately con-
cerned.
...
IF ANYONE KNOWS ITS
Judge Lamar Gill of Raymondville.
Who writes that to the best of his
recollections the • Manteo" was the
last boat to bring passengers to the
Valley by way of Point Isabel.
Last trip of this craft was. made
during the latter part of the year
1904. the Judge believes.
In September of that year a big
flood came along and washed out
the St. Louis. Brownsville and Mex-
ico bridge over the Arroyo Colorado.
When that bridge was repaired
and regular rail passenger service
resumed the boats quit.
Perhaps helped a little to the quit-
ting by the railroad which had
purchased the old Brownsville and
Point Isabel Railway and was in a
position to stifle boat traffic.

EVERY SO OFTEN THIS
column gets a letter asking us why
In the name of common sense a Val-
ley Chamber of Commerce is not
organized.
j) Inasmuch as we have been asking
the same question for an Indefinite
number of years we are in no posi-
tion to answer.
Wi believe have always believed
and always will believe that such an
organization would prove of tnvalu- 1
able aid to this section.
Of even greater aid than the re-
gional organizations are to West.
East and South Texas.

with intermittent suggestions—

"The trees are budding

NOT MORE THAN THREE OR
four years ago Harry’ Carroll re-

On top of all that he heads the

INJURIES RECEIVED IN AN
automobile accident last week will
confine Mrs. X. B. Reeves of Ray-
iJondville to her bed for the next
ffcur or five weeks. «
But she will continue as active
bead of the committee li\ charge of
the Willacy County Onion fiesta
just the samel
Committee meetings will be held
at her home she will direct the
preliminary activities.
That's our Idea of real community

reasons for believing that the 1936

Ra the Egyptian sun god—had a

shadows were shortest at noon at
the end of the 365-day year now
Feb. 28.
Once every four years. Egyptian
mathematicians found there was
no shadow. They did not know a

To calculate the extra time
more easily a day was added to

the Valley this year when records
revealed that a number of Valley

counts the years in which Febru-
ary 29 fell since he was bom in
1916. Barber who was bom in
Louisiana has been a resident of
Brownsville for several years and
is employed at the Tourist Auto
Supply on the San Benito high-

To Harlingen goes the credit for
having the most “leap year babies.”

LEAD OF JAPS
Italian Delegates Walk
Out On Navy Limit
Conference
LONDON. Feb. 28. (JPv—'The naval
limitation conference which was ini-
tiated last December with five world
powers had become a three-power
conclave Friday for all practical
purposes.
As Great Britain struggled to sal-
vage some profit from the conversa-
tions. Italy in effect took the same
step in bowing out of the conference
that Japan took exactly six weeks
ago. The stumbling block to fascist
cooperation is sanctions.
Italy's announcement to Britain
that it was not now prepared to
sign a naval limitation treaty was
interpreted in conference quarters
as an indication only Gandhi-like
non-cooperation can be expected
from the envoys of Premier Mus-
solini from now on.
The British were both disap-
pointed and bitter. They felt Italy
ought to have taken such action at
the start instead of at the end
of the conference.
The American attitude was re-
flected in the statement of sources
close to the American delegation
that they hoped to complete their
work quickly and start home soon.
