Today Red has his own typewriter rebuilding
plant and owns his home and a neat little repair car
with a special built body. His home and plant are
right on the Highway, midway between Mercedes and
Weslaco. All types of typewriters are repaired by
Mr. Gunn and parts for all makes of machines are
carried in stock He also buys and sells machines.
When one buys a machine from “Red” Gunn he gets
a personal guarantee with it, and should the type-
writer give trouble, he is always ready to back up his
guarantee with personal service.

The Superintendent has asked that lot holders
refrain from planting flowers or shrubs on their
lot at the present time as landscaping will start
this week. If you wish to plant something, set
your lot to Bermuda grass.
Red Gunn is another example of men who grasp
the Valley’s opportunities. Just four years ago Red
drove into Mercedes in a worn-out “Flivver” with
very, very little change in his pockets. It did not take
him long, however, to get into action. He was an ex-
perienced typewriter repair mechanic and he found
the Valley a virgin field for this class of work. From
the start he lived in Mercedes and made friends all
over the Valley.

Large Area Irrigable
It was pointed out to the commit-
tee that the Valley now has ap-
proximately 500,000 acres, or 25 per
cent of its total area, under, irri-
gation, and that projects already fi-
nanced would increase this to 720,-
000 acres, and that eventually near-
ly 1,000,000 acres, or half the area
of the Valley counties, would come
under irrigation.
While the densely populated areas
of the East owe their density of
population to development of in-
dustries only, the dense population
the Valley will eventually acquire
will be supported by both agricul-
ture and industry. In no section of
the United States can agriculture
be conducted upon a more intensive
scale, and the production of raw ma-
terials as well as an almost unlimit-
ed variety of food products will be-
become an industry of major import-
ance. It is conservatively estimated
that the natural resources of the
Valley counties are less than 25 per
cent developed. Developments of
these resources will not only sup-
port a very dense population but
will also be the foundation for de-
velopment of numerous industries,
all of which will increase the popu-
lation and wealth production.
I The densely populated areas bf
the East have few of the resour-
ces of the Lower Rio Grande Val-
ley. Climatic conditions are not fa-
vorable; production is limited; they
are far removed from the centers
of production of raw materials. In
the economic readjustment already
underway, such sections as the Low-
er Rio Grande Valley, which have
every advantage of climate and re-
source, are certain to develop to the
point where they can and will sup-
port a far more dense population
than the bleak, sterile states of the
North Atlantic coast.
Tell it to the I. C. C.
Members of the Interstate Com-
merce Commission expressed them-
selves as amazed at the heavy pro-
duction of the Lower Rio Grande
Valley when Congressman John N.
Garner last week filed with the com-
mittee a statement setting out the

fact that the Valley counties last
season shipped 44 per cent as many
vegetables as the entire state of
Florida.
This statement, which was filed
in connection with the Valley’s pro-
test against-proposed suspension of
the mixed car rule, pointed out that
last season vegetable shipments from
Florida aggregated 50,669 cars, and
during the same period the Lower
Rio Grande Valley shipped 22,296
cars, or approximately 44 per cent
of Florida’s total.. Members of the
commission stated that it was al-
most inconceivable that a small sec-
tion of the Mexican border country,
comprising only a small fraction of
the area of three counties, could pro-
duce almost half as much vegetable
tonnage as the entire state of Flor-
ida.
Attention of the commission was
called to the fact that the Valley
now has approximately 6,000,000 cit-
rus fruit trees planted, and that
acreage devoted to grapefruit is
approximately 70 per cent of the
Florida acreage planted to this fruit.
Florida has an area twelve times
greater than that of the Valley
counties, and now boasts a popula-
tion of 1,400,000. Due to the fact
that it lacks the fertile soil and
many of the other natural advan-
tages of the Valley section, the state
can never hope to attain the inten-
sive development which is possible
in the Valley to support a very dense
population.
Fights for Mixed Car Rule
Congressman Garner, in his state-
ment to the Interstate Commerce
Commission, asserted that develop-
ment of the smaller markets for the
fruit and vegetable products of the
Valley section depended upon refu-
sal of the commission to suspend
the mixed car rule as requested by
the Memphis Freight Bureau. He
called attention to the fact that last
season 5,215 mixed cars, or approx-
imately 25 per cent of the Valley’s
vegetable production, were shipped;
whereas, Florida shipped only 2,-
328 mixed cars, or approximately 5
per cent of that state’s prodution.
He aserted that application of the
new rule, which applies the carload
rate to all commodities in a mixed
car moving into Southwestern ter-
ritory, would be in conformity with

The program below contains the

the country. To save space we have
listed only a few nearby stations
after each feature—stations which

There are at present over 650 licen-

Smith resolution, and that in addi-
tion to opening innumerable small
markets for Valley growers would
decrease the spread between the pro-
ducer and consumer.
“Distribution, not production, is
the Valley’s major problem,” the
congressman said. “There is almost
no limit to the agricultural tonnage
the Valley can produce, but it must
have an outlet for that production.
In my opinion the proposed mixed
car rule will prove of incalculable
value to both the growers and con-
sumers, and will aid materially in
opening new markets for the rap-
idly increasing vegetable and fruit
production of that section.”
