AUGUST WEATHER in the Val
ley was ••unusual.’*
But not In the sense that “un
usual* generally is used in section
where it is customary to brag on
climate.
In Florida or California a hot
day. a prolonged rainy spell or a
drought is always “unusual.”
August weather In the Valley was
unusual in the opposite direction
It was cooler and less dry than us
ual.
W. J. Schnurbusch. meteorologist
of the local weather bureau says
that the mean temperature for the
August just past was 83.6 degrees,
whereas normal for the month Is
83 9. The monthly summary also
reports 3.29 inches of rain for Aug
ust and normal is 2.55.

THERE IS A serious shortage of
cotton pickers In the border coun
try, according to the Laredo Times.
Thousand: of acres of cotton are
open in Webb. Duval. Jim Wells
and Nueces counties in which there
never has been a single picker, this
paper says.
Tht answer?
Importation of thousands cf
Mexican farm laborers..
The Valley escaped this condition
this year principally because most
of the cotton in this section open
ed rapidly and the season was
about over before there was a de
mand for pickers in other sections.
At that, the production was re
duced somewhat because of a lack
of sufficient laborers to gather the
last scattered crop.
The remedy?
Modification of immigration laws
rather than more severe restric
tions.
That or-what?

CORPUS CHRISTI councilmen
have ordered engineers to prepare
field notes for extending the city
limits to Include about five square
miles of additional territory and to

There at one time was talk of ex

ville to take in the municipality
large areas which should be includ

plan recently.

A card was mailed at Toronto
on August 23. addressed to Mr. and

BROWNSVILLE CHILDREN can
attend public school in safety.
Special policemen have been
stationed at the schools to enforce
speed laws and the legal limit past

Corporation court Judge A. A
Browne has announced that every
person who receives a tag will pay
a fine.
Not much of a loop hole there.
Either obey the law or take the
consequences.
No Brownsville child was injured
last year while en route to or from
a public school. Police and school
officials are jealous of that record
and hope to maintain it again this
year.
G. W. Gotke. superintendent of
the system, has cooperated with
the city officials by arranging ar
rival and departure hours at times
least dangerous to the pupils.
Soj/signs are to be placed In

—After an all-night search,
a number of Indians from
the reservation here, return
ed this morning with the
rsport they could find no
trace of the plane reported
wrecked ntfir Zuni.
C. H. Kelsey, manager of
the Zuni Indian Training
company, said that the Indians
searched the territory in which the
plane had been reported to 1/tve
crashed and found no evidence of
the wreckage.
LOS ANGELES, Cal.. Sept. S.—VP)
Confusion and myster drew a dou
ble veil today around facts ' oncern
ing the transcontinental air trans
orfs lost air liner City of San Fran
cis which previously had been re
ported by company officials to have
been found wrecked in the wilds of
the New Mexico-Arizona border re
gion and its five passengers and
three crew members dead.
Stories Confusing
Inability of searchers to locate
the plane, which disappeared Tues
day while on its way from Albu
querque to Los Angeles, together
with alleged denials of Santa Fe
railroad agents that the; nad cir
culated reports of the wreck being
found further complicated the sit
uation this morning.
The thief dispatcher of the Santa
Fe railroad here declared, however
that the Santa Fe telegraph opera
tor at Perea, had not denein having
reports of the supposed linding of
the City of San Francisco in the
Black Rock Wash country.
Informed of these details. H. W.
Beck, western traffic manager for
the transport, told The Associated
Press the official statements cf his
company saying the lmer had been
wrecked and its passengers and
crew killed had been based upon in
formation from the Santa Fe.
Doubt Report
In the face of conflicting state
ments from the various Santa Fe
agents and another from the post
master at Gallup who denied any
of his mail carriers had reported
sighting the wreck. Beck announced
he would make *no change for the
present in our previous official
statement quoting this <8he Santa
Fe) report until further Invest igat
tion establishes whether there is
any basis for it.”
Beck declared, however, “We are
beginning to doubt the aumen.icity
of the report given us.” We re

EXTENSION UP
TO COMMISSION
I Cliy Officials Will Vote On
Widening City Limits
Friday
! A skeleton ordinance providing
for the extension of the city limits
to take in Weest Brownsville and
a considerable territory on the side
of the city is expected to be pre
sented before the city commission
at its regular session Friday morn
ing.
The ordinance was drawn up by
City Attorney H. B. Galbraith and
H. L. Yates. The territory to be
taken in was carefully considered
and no lands in public districts
were included. A new law recent
ly passed puts the city at a dis
advantage when taking in portions
of independent school districts,
drainage districts, irrigation dis
tricts, etc., the attorneys said.
The proposed extension follows
in part the recommendations of
the chamber of commerce. The
chamber was anxious to have the
lands included as soon as possible
in order to have the added popu
lation in time for the 1930 census.
If the* city commission adopts the
ordinance, an election will be nec
essary. The law provides for th*~
election to be held from 30 to 90
days alter the commission acts on
the matter after proper notices
have been posted.
