HOUSE REJECTS PROHIBITION REPEAL
I
HE LIVES I* LYFORD. BUT
Brownsville has no more enthusias-
tic booster than E. W. Archer.
Mr. Archer's loyalty to Browns-
ville is not exclusively of the “lip
variety either for he has maae
substantial investments in Browns-
ville and pays taxes on an assessed
valuation of around $20000.
This pioneer of Lyford ranked
for year as a conservative of tne
conservatives was in Brownsville
Sunday afternoon very frankiy
worried.
Said he—"My record for jeai»
past wall bear me out when I sav
that I am one of those who Is
constitutionally opposed to bond
issues. I have fought be d issues
time after time in Willacy county.
“I might be expected from that
record to be opjxjsed to a bond
issue which would subject my
considerable Brownsville holdings
to an additional tax.
“To the contrary I am heart
and soul for your port at Browns-
ville. I believe that the builduig of
that port will increase the value
of the property I own in Browns-
ville and will increase its revenue
bearing possibilities.
•I hope that Brownsville by its
vote on Tuesday will give a most
emphatic endorsement to tne
Brownsville port by re-electing the
present navigation commission by
an overwhelming majority '

and o. c. smith lately

Louis and other Mid-Western
points.
Relates that people of that sec-
tion— „
Are watching Brownsville
gays that they ere interested m
investing as Mr. Smith has invest-
•iSuti and around Brownsville
Just as soon as they hear the glad
news— .
That Brownsville intends to havt-
a port. .
Belief is expressed in that pan ui
the county—
Says Mr. Smith
That the next real boom—
Will be the Brownsville boom
Which will follow the port de-
velopment
And make this city another Hous-
ton.
• • •
AND SO IT GOES
The arguments pro anu cm wUl
be ended tonight.
Tomorrow the port issue w ill be
settled at the polls.
This column expresses the ler-
vent hope that the verdict of the
voters wJl be a decisive one.
May it be a landslide one way
or the other—
And you know which way we
hope it will be!
Let's get out and vote.
Let s settle the issue.
And clear the way lor future
activity for the betterment of
Brownsville.
Disagreement with friends ana
neighbors has not been pleasant
inevitable though it has be«i.
With the election out of the way—
May we all rcmlve to labor m
unity—
For Brownsville and the Browns-
ville community!
• m •
WE SEE A GREATER BROWNS-
ville in ths making.
Certainly Brownsville as Browns-
ville will has the right to expect
great things from the Incoming
democratic administration.
And again most certainly.
Brownsville along with our sister
Valley cities has every expectation
of doing great things in the New
Year so Cose at hand.
A unified citizenship resolved on
its home town first and last and all
the time has the opportunity to
come through and to make it pos-
sible for its city to come through.
Plenty of work to be done nd
plenty of willing ha lids to do that |
work should insure the dawn ol a
new day for Brownsville lor the
Valley.

(Special to The Herald)
SAN BENITO. Dec 5.—Three
representatives ot the Lower R:o
Grande Valley are on their way to
Washington today to present the
plea of this section for a federal ex-
penditure of S4.000.000 to give it pro-
tection from such floods as came in
September and October ot tins year.
The three men arc Frank S. Rob-
ertson. San Benito secretary of the
Valley Water Conservation associa-
tion; W. E. Anderson San Bcrflto
consulting engineer of the Interna-
tional Boundary commission and P.
B. Creager of Brownsville retained
to present the Valley s plea to the
state department.
Funds for presenting the Valley's
case wer voted recently by the
commissioners’ courts of Hidalgo
and Cameron counties.
The Valley will seek to have the
recommendations ot the Interna-
tional Boundary commission adopt-
ed and approved by the state de-
partment and acted upon by con-
gress.
These recommendations were
made oil owing a survey of *
Lower R;o Grande made last year.
The recommendations are first that
an emergency expenditure of $1750-
000 be made in order to put the
present flood control system n
shape to tunctian that an addition-
al expenditure of $2400000 be made
to enlarge the system and m..ke
changes in it to handle a flood larg-
er than any ever recorded on the
Rio Grande and third an annual
maintenance appropriation of
$150000 be made.
Valiev engineers pointed out that
much of the damage from the floods
this fall would have been averted
if there had b: :a maintenance on
the flood control system.
Valley Citrus

The Lower Rio Grande Valley has
received approximately Si 750.000
for its citrus fruit shipped to the

THE PORT ELECTION
-WHAT IT MEANS
-(AN EDITORIAL)-
Differences in opinion make horse races and to set-
tle an honest difference in opinion voters of Brownsville
will go to the polls tomorrow to select three commission-
ers of the Brownsville Navigation district.
While you will mark your ballot for three men. in
the marking you will be voting not for three candidates
and against the other three candidates but you will be
saying by your vote ‘‘I am for a Brownsville port” or ”1
am against a Brownsville port.”
We settle at the polls tomorrow an economic issue
not the political destiny of any man or group of men.
We decide an economic question and on our ability
to decide this issue correctly may well rest the future of
the Brownsville community.
That there exists an honest difference of opinion
there can be no doubt and both sides are fortunate in the
calibre of the men chosen as candidates to represent the
two prevailing lines of thought on the question. All are
representative citizens of Brownsville and community. All
have records which entitle them to consideration by the
electorate. By their records we may assume that all have
the welfare of this community deeply at heart.
On the one side we have three commissioners run-
ning for re-election on a platform which says in effect—
“We believe that Brownsville needs a port even more to-
day than four years ago when by an overwhelming vote
the Brownsville Navigation district was formed and its
bonds voted. We believe that a port is the one thing
which will insure a future for Brownsville such as we
want for our community. We believe that with reduced
costs of construction Brownsville is today even more jus-
tified in working for that port than was Brownsville jus-
tified four years ago. We pledge our every effort to an
immediate construction of that port.”
On the other side we have three candidates whose
platform calls for a laying down of the oars for a policy
of delay in our port efforts for an undefined period on
the theory that economic conditions do not justify the im-
mediate continuance of our port efforts.
With every consideration for those who hold to this
policy of delay. The Brownsville Herald urg»s its readers
to mark their ballots for W. G. Willman. J. G. Fernandez
and Z. A. Rosenthal not as a mark of individual prefer-
ence of these men over the three candidates compris-
ing the other ticket but as a mark of their belief in the
benefits which immediate port construction will bring to
the .Brownsville community.
The Brownsville Herald pays a not inconsiderable
amount of taxes has a not inconsiderable amount of mon-
ey invested in its building and plant and every Monday
pays out one of the biggest payrolls in this section.
As a taxpayer as an investor and as an employer of
labor The Brownsville Herald honestly feels that it will
be benefited in all three* phases by an aggressive port
policy which will lead to immediate action on a Browns-
ville port.
And our attitude is not simply a selfish one for we
believe that the industries which a port will attract to our
community the lowered freight rates which will result
the concentration of importing concerns and warehouses
which is inevitable— we believe that these and the scores
of other benefits which will accrue when we have a port
will benefit every individual citizen of this community
just as they will benefit The Brownsville Herald.
On the debit side we have a probable tax rate of 50c
on the $100 valuation to care for the navigation district
loan of not more than $2000000 which it is proposed to
make from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation.
On the credit side what may we expect in return for
this increase in taxes?
We see a rejuvinated community aggressive alert to
its opportunities for future advancement.
We see new industries lining the banks of our ship
channel some of which are even now making inquiries
for industrial sites.
We see an increased population attracted here by a
community which takes advantage of its opportunities
glad to come to one section of the United States which has
the courage to stage an advance which refuses to be whip-
ed by a depression.
We see a city through which is constantly passing a
great stream of industrial and tourist traffic between ♦he
United States and Mexico.
All this and more we see if Brownsville tomorrow
gives its emphatic endorsement to a Brownsville port in
the immediate future.
So again we urge that when you vote tomorrow you
mark your ballots for W. G. Willman J. G. Fernandez
and Z. A. Rosenthal as representatives of the belief that
a Brownsville port is needed for Brownsville now not at
some time in the dim and indefinite future.
