Everything that can be done is be-1

to Earle B. Mayfield of the commis-'
sion who with his father Allison B.
Mayfield chairman of the commis-
sion and President <J. S. Pyeatt of the ]
Gulf Coast Lines is making a trip of |
inspection in the Valley.
“While more than per cent of
the truck shipments are really inter-

Mr. Pyeatt and to the growers such
assistance as we could offer and have
made every effort tof secure cars.

U. S. ENGINEER ON
HARBORS A VISITOR
nspect Bank Protection Work
at Fort Brown and Other
Points eta River
Colon*] Spencer Cosby district l'.
S. engineer on harbors and his assist-
ant N. T. Blackburn are in Browns-
ville today inspecting the river pro*
teition work done by the government
in Fort Brown. This afternoon the!
officers visited the work being done
by the city on the river bank at the
Wells ranch. The office some time
ago gave the city permission to do
this river protection work provided it
was of such a nature as not to affect
the channel of the river and under j
the agreement that the brush work
to be done was properly anchored to
the banks.
1 his morning the officers called on
Colonel Cabell at district headquar-
ters at Fort Brown and in company
with Local Engineer J. J. Foreman
inspected the levee work. Although
'this is his first visit to Brownsville
in several years Colonel Cosby is no
stranger to this section having been
stationed at Corpus Christi in com-
mand of the Fifth Engineers one
battalion of which was stationed in
Brownsville before the organization
was ordered overseas.
Colonel Cosby and Mr. Blackburn
will leave this afternoon for their1
headquarters in Galveston.
Colonel Cosby had nothing to say
with reference to the Point Isabel
harhbr project. During this morn-
ing he called on D. A. O’Brien presi-
dent of the Rio Grande railway hut
whether this call had any connection
with the Point Isabel undertaking is
unknown.
KING ALFONSO IS FINED.
The Assncialeil Press)
MADRID Spain April 27.—King
Alfonso was fined two pesetas today
for walking across the grass in the
gardens of Alcazar. He said the guar-
dian reporting him should be re-
warded for devotion to duty.
difficulty is that the administration
made no advance preparations for
handling the crop and the railroads
were not returned to private owner-1
ship in March. I think 1 am safe in
saying that there has not been a single
refrigerator car built within the last
five years and it has been hard
scratching to get the cars to send to
the Valley’’ Mr. Mayfield said.
Mr. Mayfield said that the purpose
of the commission member’s visit to
the Valley a^ this time was to obtain
a first-hand knowledge of conditions
and to come in personal contact with
the growers. The party will spend
today and tomorrow visiting towns in
the Valley and talking with growers
and shippers from whom the commis-
sion *has had complaints. Mr. May-
field told of the strong representation
that had been made by the state com-
mission to the car service commission
at Washington in an effort to secure
cars for the Valley and of the success
that had attended these efforts.
Mr. Pyeatt told the commission that
the Gulf Coast Lines had shipped 900
cars of cabbage from the Valley last
week and that if all cars that were
spotted yesterday were loaded 167
cars had been shipped yesterday. Mr.
Pyeatt estimated that up to Sunday
4200 cars had been handled. He esti-
mated that within the tnext ten days
Valley shippers would require about
1000 cars and that the line already
had between .‘100 and 500 cars in j
sight.
I he car movement that he said |
was interrupted by the strike has j
resumed w ithin the past few days ami
he had been advised that they were
coming through St. Louis to the Gulf
Coast Lines at the rate of 100 cars a j
day. One of the difficulties with
which the road has had to contend
according to Mr. Pyeatt has been the
scattered sources of the ice supply.
It has been necessary to ship about
sixty-five cars of ice daily a*/to the.
Valley and as the administration had '
made no preparation for having ice in '
storage these cars had been picked up
in various quantities from different
parts of the state.
Mr. Pyeatt complimented the ship-
ping arrangements In Brownsville
where prftctically all shipments are
handled through one concern.
“From what I can learn your ship-
per is fair to the growers getting
them the best possible prices for their
products and your growers are fair
with the shipper and I believe this is
an excellent arrangement for every-
one concerned” he said.
The party arrived in Brownsville
on tjie delayed train Monday after-
noon and last night were dinner
guests in Matamoros of R. B. Creager
a classmate in college of Karle May-
field’s. Today the party is going into
the shipping situation with local ship-
pers and growers anti this afternoon
they will start up the Valley and
spend tomorrow.
After leaving the Valley the party
will return to Austin and will then
go to Laredo where the onion grow-
ers are feeling acutely the car short-
age.
