CUTTING OF THE SAMFORD
yce field allowable production from
3.241 barrels a day to 2,793—
Was not an act of petttshness on
the part of the Texas Railroad com
mission—
According to the wording of the
order making the cut.
Rather was it an act designed by
the commission to cut down the
daily production of Mirando crude
over the entire state.
In its order the commission sets
forth that more Mirando crude was
being produced than could be sold.
The daily market for Mirando
crude was estimated by the com
mission at 28.554 barrels—
So total production of all fields
was cut 6.000 barrels to reach that
figure.
And Samfordyce suffered along
j With 9 other fields, all producers of
Mirando crude.
Mirando crude, by the way. Is
defined by the commission as oil
ranging in gravity from 20 to 26
degrees according to the standards
of the American Petroleum institute.

MALLE N SEEmSJ TO HAVE
established its right beyond all
permdventure of doubt to stage the
Valley's formal Fourth of July
oelebration.
For the past three years the City
of Palms has staged its celebration,
and It has been a good one. without
competition from other Valley cities.
Much better that way, for one
city to take these things at a time.
No use in competing. There's
mom for one real good and big
Fourth of July celebration, one
Valley Fair, one Onion Fiesta, one
Citrus Fiesta, one Tomato Fiesta,
and so on down the line.
But when we all try to stage one.
the chances are that none of them
will be any good.

The office they have held since

This trio of commissions' assisted

Have administered the Port Is

WE LIKE THIS IDEA OF Giv

Weslaco Chamber of Commerce

thus recognize new residents.
Nice thing, extending the right
hand of welcome, and probably will
do the community and the new

Than a dinner and a gold medal

Dr. S. K. Hall&m To
Build New Town
As Soon as Water
Is Supplied
Dr 8 K. Hal lam of this city, who
at 90 is probably the oldest man
actively engaged in business in the
Lower Rio Grande Valley, has an
nounced that he is going to build a
new town for this section.
To begin the development of a new
tcwn in the doctor's opinion is a fit
ting undertaking for a man of his
age, who should not wait around for
younger men to start new things.
Dr. Hallam announced that a con
i tract has Just been signed with Cam
eron County Water Improvement
District No. 5 to furnish water for
I the townsite of Laguna Vista, on the
Laguna Madre about seven miles up
from Port Isabel.
He said the development of a town
there will be undertaken as rapidly
I as possible after water Is obtained.
To Develop Tract
• We could do nothing in the past
because of lack of water.” Dr. Hal
iam said. “But now we will proceed
w.th development of the townslte
and of the entire tract.
Dr. Hallam. who came to Browns
ville almost 30 years ago. and showed
his keen vision by backing a Browns
ville pert project more than 25 years
I 2go. and an oil drilling project near
here shortly after that, has been ac
, »ve in the civic and business life of
the city throughout his residence
here. He frequently has served as
I»a?tor of the Christian church here
v.hen the church was without a pas
tor.
Dr. Hallam is vice president of
! the Laguna Vista club, which owns
the 10,000 acres of land in the tract.
H. F Stephenson of Brownsville is
president.
Another concern, the Laguna Vis
ta Corporation, is headed by C. J.
Webster of San Antonio, and this
concern is to develop the townslte.
1 development has been held up both
a> lack of water, and by the serious
Jmess for six weeks of Mr. Webster.
Dr. Hallam said that the com
pany has sought for seme time to
tbtain water, but that its plans
heretofore did not work out. and it
has Just signed contract with the El
Jardin district. A canal about 63.000
feet will be built from the forth -
eastern end of the El Jardin system
♦o the Laguna Vista tract, where a
resaca will be used as a reservoir.
Water for the town, for two lakes
j which are to be filled and beautified,
and for irrigation when farm de

called for in the contract.

Healthy Condition Of
Valley Business

Rio Grande Valley showed a total
of close to $10,000,000 In deposits at
the last bank call as revealed In
tabulations made here, this condi
tion representing a healthy Increase
over the condition at the same
time in 1934.
The June bank call, In the Val

631.187.92, or about $390,000 less
than in March, but almost the
same as in October, and $300,000
more than last October. The total
Is more than $500,000 greater than
the figure for June of last year.
Condition of all the 20 Valley

ports. and the deposits from now
on through the cotton and winter
fruit and vegetable seasons are ex
pected to increase rapidly.

JEWELRY STORE
Small Man or Youth Sought
In San Benito In Two
Robberies
(Special to The Herald)
SAN BENITO. July 5. — Police
Friday were on the lookout here for
a very small man or a youth, want
ed for the robbery of the McFad
den jewelry store Wednesday night
and the robbery of the Brown Dili
shoe store last week.
Both robberies took place In the
same block, and under the same
circumstances.
The McPadden Jewelry store was
entered sometime Wednesday night
but was not discovered until Friday
morning because the store was not
opened during the Fourth of July
holiday. Entrance was made by a
small person who chipped a small
hole, probably with a chisel, in a
lower panel In the rear door, and
crawled through.
The manner in which entrance
was gamed led authorities to be
lieve the robbery was done by a
man. although the type and qual
ity of articles stolen pointed to a
child as the burglar. Police said
that although the missing articles
are valued at about $200. the bur
glar passed up many sterling sil
ver articles In favor of "Mickey
Mouse * sets and similar articles.
Every fountain pen in the store
was taken, although merchandise
much more valuable was not touch
ed. A number of rings also were
taken. Including some of cheaper
quality, pointing further to the fact
the burglar knew little of the value
of Jewelry.
One window was almost cleaned
by the burglar, and this fact led
to the belief the store was entered
Wednesday night. The manager
of a nearby store noticed Thursday
that the window was disarranged,
he told police Friday morning.
The Brownbilt shoe store, situat
ed in the same block, was entered
last week by a burglar who gained
entrance by chlptng out the lower
panel of the rear door. A number
of pairs of shoes, mostly size five
and-a-halfs, were stolen, giving
further strength to the belief the
burglar is of small stature.
Scarcity of fingerprints at the
scene of both robberies led police
to believe Friday the burglar is a
man. although they were not over
looking the fact many articles
stolen were those that might be ex
pected to be taken by a youngster.
Work Projects Will
Be Resumed Monday
All work projects under the di
rection of the Cameron County
Relief board will again start Mon
day morning following a temporary
shutdown of approximately one
week. This announcement was made
following receipt of the county's
July allotment from state head
quarters Friday morning.
Officials jointed out that work
would be resumed as efficiently as
pctsible with the recently received
limited allocations. With certain
steps in reorganization of the relief
program recently confusing the
entire set-up temporarily, relief of
ficials were compelled to close down
projects here until funds for op
eration In July were received.
Shipments from Mexico Via
Brownsville to Start Early
The beginning of commerce
through here from Mexico for boat
shipment to foreign ports will
probably be observed this summer,
in view of arrangements now be
ing completed, although the com
merce may move through Houston,
Galveston, or some other large
lexas port.
Arrangements are being com
pleted to move practically all of
the cotton crop of the Matamoros
area, which includes land as far
up as Reynosa. through here, and
out through some Texas port to
t> foreign nation, probably Eng
land.
Announcement was made that
the necessary permits have been
received, and that it is now prac
tically certain the Matamoros cot
ton will be handled In this man
ner. which will be the first ocean
bound commerce from Mexico to
move through here.
The Matamoros crop is expected
to be from 15.000 to 20,000 bales.
It will be fumigated here, then
started on Its way, and will prob
ably be compressed at the plant at
Harlingen in transit.
The port of port Isabel Is mak
ing a bid for the cotton, although
it is not certain whether satis
factory arrangements can be made
because of the rail and compress
ing connections.
A cotton oompress is to be built
at Brownsville before next season,
on the Brownsville port turning
basin, and officials of the local
navigation district expressed the
belief that the cotton will be
moved out through a Valley port
by the 1936 season.
This cotton will be shipped in
bend and moved on to some for
I rtgn nation.
